She smiled as soon as he joined her on the bed. “This one that you are giving me this cute smile… it is like I know what you want.” He said moving closer to her under the heavy blanket. “See the man that want to get married….” She said still smiling and his heart sank, he know how she does not want to have anything to do with his second marriage and he had tried not to discuss about it with her, he respect her privacy and the fact that she know about it and seem to be preparing for it, he is happy.“I was at the flat today, what do you want to do about it?” She asked him, “You went to the flat?” he asked her and she nodded.She was suddenly a bit lonely in the house and so decided to take a tour round the compound, there are six flats in the compound, she and her husband lives in one and that is the largest and put up the other five flats up for rent, the fifth flat was vacated some months earlier and had been left unoccupied and when her husband told her of his second marriage, sh
She looked around the large living room as she sat down quietly in the living room as soon as the last guest left the house and she took a deep breathe and watched her husband joined her in the living room, he had went into the bed room to have a shower. “Would you not have a shower?” he asked her and sat down on the sofa beside her.“Oya, go and shower and change from this your heavy dressing.” He teased her and she blushed.“I can’t believe my one and only lady would be this shy? The super woman herself” he teased her further.“Who told you I am shy?” she said to him.“Of course, how can my olori be shy? Just go and have your shower and let us have something to eat.” He said to her and she nodded “Come and show me the way.” She said dragging him up to his feet and he smiled lovingly at her, he recalled how shy and Aziza was being that close to him even after several months of Nikkah, unlike her, Sadiqah warmed up to him immediately as if they have been together all the time .. but
He entered the bedroom and dialed Aziza’s phone number again, it rang for the second time before she picked the call up. “I am sorry, didn’t know how the phone fell from my hand.” He said to her and swallowed hard, and there was silence from the other end. “Aziza, are you there?” he asked her. “Yes, I am, I will hang up now.” She said and just like she said, she just hung up and he eave a sigh. How dare she? He had never been disrespected that way before and also, he can’t remember the last time he called someone crazy out of anger, he always try so hard to keep his temper in check and for the first time in twenty hours, he became scared of what the future holds for him, he want to stabilize his home, he wanted to try the best for both of them and he realised that it might not be so easy as he thought, Sadiqah was not that easy. He remember how they met; It was a busy day for him and a rush hour as well, he had hardly left the office when he received a call from Aziza and plead
The knock came again and without response, she opened the door and stared at him as she peeped into the room and then slowly enter the room. The new couple stared at each other for a while and slowly she moved closer.“I will meet you in your room.” he said and turn away from her, she sighed and moved closer to him not listening to him, slowly she sat down beside him and tie one of her hands around his waist and put the other one on his thigh, then rested her head on the shoulder. “I thought you love me…” she said to him and he was quiet. “You called me crazy.” She said to him and he sighed. “I didn’t know you will be offended…” she said.“And you raised your voice at me.” She said and she felt his hand on her hand which was on his laps and she smiled. “We are both wrong and I am sorry.” He said and she nodded.“Are you not going to apologize too?” he asked her.“I will … but in another way…” she said as she let her hand travel a bit from his thigh to his crotch and he smiled at h
“Adunni, you can talk to me… if you are not okay, we can go see a doctor.” He said to her and she shook her head and slowly she laid down on the bed and curled up her legs while she placed her two hands under her ear and closed her eyes, she felt him cover her up with a duvet, before he went to the rest room, she took a deep breath, adjusted herself and closed her eyes immediately he returned back to the room and that was when his phone rang and he went out of the room to receive it, he didn’t return back to the room until she was finally in her dreamland.She woke up early the next day and after her Fajr prayer, she went to the kitchen, for some minutes, it does not look like hers, it looked like the kitchen has been rearranged, her big spoons and some cutleries, position has been changed from their usual places, some plates were no longer where it was supposed to be. She sighed deeply and just stood in the middle of the kitchen for some minutes and looked around trying to scan with
She entered her room fuming and slammed the door behind him,How could they have played me this way... How could he have think of me as a fool...? She keep asking herself several questions and pace round the room. Back in the living room, the newly wedded couple stared with disbelieve, Habeebullah was also surprise at his mother’s behaviour.“What is wrong with Ummi?” The young boy asked him and that was when his father realized he was still in the room.“Habeebullah, how about we go to your room and listened to that rhymes you love.” His father said and the young boy nodded and followed his father in , Musadiq returned back to the living room some minutes later, Sadiqah was sitting and she was trying to process what was happening . “What is wrong with her?” Sadiqah asked him and Musadiq sat down slowly on the sofa trying to understand why Aziza would flare up, she hardly shows her anger in people presence and he know something must have been wrong. “I thought you said you both ha
She parked out the whole packs of clothes from her bag and went straight to dump them into the washing machine. As soon as the last cloth got there, she eave a sigh of relief. She smiled to herself and her some water into the matching, then add some detergent there before she switch on the machine.“hunnnnn....” The machine started working , she left the machine and walked back to her room, it is the third day of their quarrel and they try so hard to avoid each other, they had bumped thrice and had hissed loudly at each other and both had went their different ways. Musadiq avoided her totally and she could bet he slept in her room... Well it is he turn of the night anyways and she would start her turn the following day and she had already decided on what to do and how best to handle him, after all she had made her forgotten his home before . “I can do that again .” she said to herself. She know he would choose her over her all the time..She laid down flat on the bed, and begin to
Sadiqah smiled as she walked round the house, it was well furnished, she walked to the kitchen and realised that it was almost decorated just like Aziza’s and she smiled with satisfaction. “You will move in today.” He said to her and she stared back at him. “I thought you said tomorrow.” She said to him and watched him look away. He was not smiling, he had not been himself around her lately and she was so busy with fighting with Aziza that she didn’t even notice. “Is there anything you are doing in that house? Your house is ready, so you move today.” He said still not smiling at her and he swallowed hard, he was trying so hard to control his anger and agitation at everyone, he blamed himself for not being able to control his wives. The embarrassment he felt at their confrontation days ago is still fresh in his mind and he was trying so hard not to talk to anyone of them until they are both alone in their house. “Musadiq, I am talking to you.” He heard her voice and realised that
