Marriage Proposal - Episode 17
Flesh of Argument
“Welcome” Mrs. Taiwo and Beatrice said to Mr. Taiwo simultaneously.
“Thank you darling” He said facing Beatrice as he walked towards her and embraced her.
“So you will now embrace your daughter leaving me to go and hug the transformer abi?” Mrs. Taiwo said as she forced herself to smile a little.
“Awnn Awnn! So, some people can be jealous?” Mr. Taiwo said jokingly as he teased her. “You know you are the old wife. Beatrice is the new one. Let me enjoy my daughter small before you start being jealous. It’s just three weeks she is being here now, she is still new.” He added.
Afterwards, he walked up to her and embraced Mrs. Taiwo too. “Your face looks long my dear. What’s happening between you and your daughter again? I heard your voices while coming in” Mr. Taiwo said
Expecting responses from both without getting any, he decided to break the ice. “Okay, to be straight, it’s either Beatrice refused to eat or something related to marriage, which?” He said looking at both one after the other.
Finally, Mrs. Taiwo said “See, if you know this your daughter, better warn her”
Mr. Taiwo laughed softly and said “If I know my daughter? Hahahaha! You are very funny darling

. So, tell me, what is the bone of contention and flesh of argument here.
“Bone or flesh is not the cause of the problem here. It’s your daughter. She has refused to bring a spouse home and she even have the guts to tell me three in years’ time.” Mrs. Taiwo said straightening her countenance and putting her hands on her waist.
Mr. Taiwo laughed so hard once more and then took his seat comfortably and said “I knew it won’t be different from something related to this. You guys are very funny.”
All these while Beatrice had not made any statement and was just there, knowing fully well that her dad would support and rescue her like a bird to be freed from the snare of the fowler.
“Dear, you disturb yourself and this young lady too much.” Mr. Taiwo said facing his wife. “Take a good look at your daughter. She is beautiful and intelligent. The perfect match for any responsible man on Earth, Mars and even Jupiter. Getting a spouse can never be a problem for her at all. For now, allow her to focus on her career. After all she is just twenty-five. She will get a spouse when the time is right” Mr.

. Taiwo added.
“This is exactly what I have been telling mum since. But she doesn’t seems to see it this way” Beatrice finally spoke up with a rather joyous tone as she had gotten dad’s back-up.
“So, you do not want your daughter to think anything about marriage now abi? It’s alright” Mrs. Taiwo said as she walked away.
Beatrice immediately jumped to her dad and said “Daddy, thank you for saving me from her hands. Sometimes I wonder if you meant mum while fighting with the Nigerian army during the Civil War. She is so hot. You are really my advocate. Thank you”
But this wasn’t just the end to Mrs. Taiwo’s plan. Women are always steadfast and consistent with their plans and strategy. When they decide to do it, they get it done. Whatever way.

Marriage is not something we should allow ourselves jump into just like that.... Let's make sure that we are fully ready So that we will not look like a farmer who goes to his farm without his hoe or cutlass. Jacinta Alibo
Beatrice should thank God for Mr Taiwo. But seriously, the mother should have known that marriage is isn't something you plan for people instead people should plan marriage for themselves...
