The cover design

She cuddled the large pillow in her lonely bed for the fifth night in a row. Oluwaniyi was gone. He wouldn't be coming back like he threatened and if he did it would be with a divorce papers. Her life had been happy the past few months and now it was in shambles. Her husband had gone from attentive to cold and dismissive. At first, it worried her but she consoled herself with the thought that they still had dinner together and made love afterwards. But their easy conversation had gone all in a drain and he pushed himself away from her every night they made love. He grew tired of her body and he even told her she disgust him. He started sleeping in his study room. He worked long hours and refused to shared dinner with her. She had thought that was the worst until she watched him packed his bags and left for Lagos five days ago. Bonuade shoulders shook with tears, she wished she had rethought her decision. Her sister had warned her but she was blinded by her love for him. She thought Aina was helping her, but it turned out she was planning her destruction. She remembered how her woes started.
It was during her NYSC, she received a phone call from her. Aina had been nice to her on phone and had even visited her at her primary place of assignment at Benin. Bonuade had thought she was her friend. They had discussed about Adunni and Oluwaniyi. Aina encouraged her not to relent if she really loved Oluwaniyi. She had believed her. The opportunity came a week to Adunni and Oluwaniyi's wedding. Aina had visited her at Abuja with excitement.
"Trust me that wedding won't work" she said beaming
"How?" Bonuade asked
She brought out some pairings of Adunni. She was seminude and the second picture was of her with another man.
"I can't believe this. She's cheating on Niyi" Bonuade screamed
"Exactly" Aina nodded
"And she always act innocent. She doesn't club or drink and Niyi sang her praise everyday. I almost imitate her just to attract him" Bonuade hissed
"That's not all. She can't give birth. She had this abortion when she was very young and her tubes were affected" Aina added and watched Bonuade's eyes grew like saucers.
"What! That's terrible. But wait are you sure she has not told Oluwaniyi?" Bonuade asked
"No" she replied
"Let me call him then" she said dialing his number she knew by heart.
Aina took the phone away from her "Don't be stupid. If you call him, he would call her to confirm. Out of his love for her, he could forgive her" she said while Bonuade nodded.
"This is what you will do, you will send this information to him a day to his wedding. Let's hope he would be angry enough to call it off" Aina said.
Afterwards Aina had made her swore she would not revealed she was behind it. She had grabbed her small Bible to swear with when Aina brought out a scary looking bitter kola. At first she was scared until Aina bit from it and gave it to her.
"Swear, you won't reveal my name" Aina said
"Why would I? You helped me" Bonuade said but she swore.
Her tears came in torrent. Aina had visited her again when she came back from her honeymoon. They met in a car park. Aina slapped her across the face, she was too stunned to react for several seconds.
"What was that for?" She screamed, her hands tightened around her.
"You little idiot, you think you are smart. Marrying him, just like that. You met a dead Buffalo in the yard, you brought out your knife, did you think it drank itself to death?" Aina said her eyes blazing in anger
"What's all in this drama. I don't understand you" she shouted back
"I plotted against my friend because I want Oluwaniyi for myself" Aina said
"What! You were helping me. So its been about your own interest all along. Look at my finger" Bonuade said flashing her ring finger at her "he belongs to me, not any other woman"
Aina clapped her hands "How poetic you sound. How brilliant. Let me remind you of something, if Oluwaniyi could abandoned the woman he loved because he thought she deceived him, your own case would be a piece of cake. He never loved you. I will inform him of your lies, anonymously of course" Aina said flashing that devilish smile she once thought was angelic.
Bonuade folded are arms and laughed "Aren't you forgetting something? You swore to me"
"Really? Did I? You are the one who ate the kolanut and swore. Mention my name and watch yourself die" Aina said.
She had cried for several days. There was no one she could confide in with the death threat hanging over her head. Her husband had noticed her sadness, he had persuaded her to speak up. She thought over their friendship that had developed the past four months and how she believed her instinct that he loved her. She opened up to him excluding Aina's part and taking the blames for his failed wedding. He had not reacted at first, he only stood up and left for the balcony. She left him believing he needed the time to get over her confession.
The night before he left home, she had approached him in his study and knelt before him.
"Please forgive me, I did it because I love you"
"You ruined my love for Adunni's because of your own deceitful one." He said angrily towering over her
"I am sorry" she sobbed
"Get up Bonuade and go to bed" he said turning his back on her.
"Please" she held onto his pyjamas crying
His face twitched " Bonuade, you are pregnant. Get up and go to your room" he said lifting her up
"I don't want to go to bed without you" she said
"I am not in the mood for sex" he said prying her fingers off him.
For a wretchedly over sexed guy like her husband, his reply was a blow to her ragged ego. Their relationship had meant nothing but sex to him.

****************
Lawyer Oluwaniyi sat at the reception waiting for his friend to call him in. He knew Oludare was less busy, he was just punishing him by keeping him waiting. He must have thought his impatience would got the better of him and he would leave. But not today, he was totally drained of all hormones that prompted him to act without proper thought. His temper and his ability to plot a well measured revenge was useful in his profession. But not in his relationship. He shouldn't have done what he did to Adunni, where was she now?
He stared around the empty reception, there was no patient waiting to see the doctor and he had been waiting for the past two hours. It was cleared his best friend was not interested in seeing him. Should he leave? And if he did, who would listen to him like Dare? Who would argued with him or fight him because he was insensitive? He stood up and went to the doctor's office ignoring the protests of his secretary. He opened the door and saw his friend for the first time in four months watching football.
"How dare you ignore me like that" Oluwaniyi was angried
"Leave us Helen, I have been awaiting him" Oludare said dismissing his secretary.
Oludare stood to his full height, facing his friend eye to eye.
"I can throw you out" he threatened
"You should because I am here to fight you. How could you ignore my calls for four months? You even had the gut to block me on WhatsApp" he said exasperated
Oludare ignored him and went back to his seat changing the channels. He hated to admit it, he missed his best friend of twenty years but Oluwaniyi was pig headed and he went too far in his revenge the last time. He even lied to him he had called Adunni only to read it on her Twitter's page that he did not.
"Hi" Oluwaniyi amended dropping in a seat beside his friend
"Hi" he returned
"Dare, I am sorry I behaved badly" he apologized
"It's fine, I have been waiting for this day, when you will come to me" Oludare said and added
"I have missed you"
"I missed you to. I was just stuck in Abuja, the clubs was boring without my home there" Oluwaniyi replied
"How's Bonuade?" Oludare asked.

Oluwaniyi sighed and went into explanation on what he found out two weeks ago.
"What do you intend to do?" Oludare asked him
"Divorce her after she gives birth to my child" he replied
"That's not right. Two wrongs does not make a right. Have you thought about forging her?" He asked him
"I won't forgive her"
"Won't or can't?" Dare asked
"I can't. She's a liar" Oluwaniyi sighed.
If he was truthful with himself, he was in love with his wife. The four months had opened his eyes to the kind of marriage he would have had with Adunni. It would have been a quiet life without fun. Well his idea of fun was different from her, Adunni hated clubbing and alcohol and he had given up all that for her. Because he loved her. But Bonuade was excitement herself. She dragged him from one club to another. Their free days was spent watching car race, movies, making love and eating out. Adunni loved homemade foods unlike him who loved eating out. He could count the number of times his wife could for him. They sampled different meals at various joints.
"Divorce is not the solution. If you remarry, do you know what attitude the next wife will display? Don't ruin your young life like this" his friend scolded while he sighed
"Have you seen Adunni?" Oluwaniyi asked him
"No, but she's married. She got married two days after you left her" Oludare informed
"Two days after? Wow! She must have kept an assistant boyfriend afterall. There must be some truth in what my wife said" Oluwaniyi said
"That was my thought too. What would you do now?" He asked
"Nothing, I will just stay here in Lagos and think about my life" he answered
"It's good to have you back" his friend said
"It's good to be back. Let's drink" Oluwaniyi said.

m right after all her best friend is her enemy.

You are ma'am

In the evening,

Aina barely made it in time to escape the rain before she entered the restaurant. She had traveled to three different places all in forty eight hours and it took it toll on her. She traveled to Delta to meet her fiancé's parents. His parents were loving and they accepted her as their daughter. She had slept in their home and the following morning, she had traveled back to her parents house at Ogbomosho for their anniversary and six pm she was in Lagos already. She felt very weak. She should be on bed resting like her fiance suggested but her best girl was celebrating today and she had to be there. She sighed as rode the elevator to the first floor. Her mind took in all her plans and she was pleased with the shape they took. Soon, very soon she would triumph over them all. She stepped out of the elevator and walked casually in the midst of teeming crowd moving in and out of Ronny Restaurant. She smiled, the place was beautiful with the lighting. The interior of the restaurant was decorated in serene shades of blue and gray. The chairs and tables sat in cozy groupings and the floor was mirror like. It was shining as she looked at her reflection. A pleasant faced lady whom she believed was one of the employees greeted her and handed her fruit juice. She drank it in one gulp and nodded her thanks returning the glass cup to her. She saw her friend through the architectural glass and called out to her.
"Madam, she can't hear you. Do you have your invitation card so you could come inside" the lady said smiling at her.
"I thought it's free for all" Aina said
"Yes ma, in the afternoon " she informed
"Go in there, and tell her Aina is here" she instructed
Aina watched the lady mulled over her words and began to shook her head, she stopped her and promised her she was not in trouble
Aina laughter rang out as she saw Adunni struggled to run with her heels. The sliding door opened and Aina embraced her tightly.
"Aina Orosun" Olaronke mimicked Aina's mother
"Shut up" she retorted
"I feel complete with you here" Olaronke said and released her to move back to the group.
"I'm always happy to see you happy" Aina said smiling
Olaronke introduced her to the men in the small group, most of them were her husband's friends whom she never met before until today.
"And this handsome man there is my husband" she grinned.
Aina made a great show of her excitement by holding Wande's two big hands in her small ones.
"I am pleased to meet you. I must tell you something about Adunni. She has a good heart, she's not arrogant and she deserves all the happiness in the world. You will never regret marrying her. Do you know even with our age difference, she has always respect me like we are equal. Please do take care of her" her voice clogged with tears
"Aina" Olaronke chided taking her friend into another embrace.
"Don't cry, trust me the trouble days are over. I have everything I want now. My family and a husband who cares about me" she would have said a husband who loved her but she was not sure of Wande's feelings towards her.
"And you my best friend is here with me. What more can I ask for. Come, let's go and greet my Dad" Olaronke said taking her along.
Mr and Mrs Olaonipekun sat in one of the cozy chairs sampling the meals before them. He was pleased with his daughter's achievement but his happiness wavered as he watched Adunni walked towards him. She looked exactly like his late wife. It was twenty one years since she died and he still missed her. He wished she was alive to see her trees bore fruits.
"Good evening sir" Aina greeted kneeling down
" Good evening ma" she said including Mrs Olaonipekun
"Stand up, good child. You are here for your friend. God will reward your deeds" Mr Olaonipekun prayed
Aina whitened at Mr Olaonipekun's prayer. The man was always saying the wrong things to her. She quickly stood up listening to her friend's loud amen.
"Thank you sir" Aina said forcing a smile
"Aunty Adunni, can I see you for a minute" Mrs Olaonipekun said to her.
Olaronke nodded and exchanged eye contact with her father who shrugged. She told Aina she would be back and followed her step mother through the back door. Aina mood was spoilt, she knew she would have to endured many tales about friendship and betrayals. Sometimes she wondered if the old man knew it was her behind most of Olaronke's problems.
"The Yoruba says " eke ni pa eru, epe ni p'ole, ile dida ni pa ore (gossip kills the servants, curse kills thieves and betrayal kills friendship) but you are different, you have been with my daughter since her first year in school. God will reward you. Say, amen my child"
****************
Wande drank the sixth glass of champagne in one gulp, he needed it to firm his resolve. He was slackening, his wife had him wrapped around her little finger. A touch here and there and he almost forgot about the letter in his office. It drove him crazy to realized he really did not care if she betrayed him or not. If he would father someone else child or not. All he wanted was to allow their feelings to blossomed into what he was sure would be popular like Romeo and Juliet but without the suicide. She had been amazing these past few days, and he could tell she was half in love with him. But there was some truth in the letter. A lady marrying another man two days after her failed wedding counted for something. It showed desperation.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he watched his friend approached him. He was seated in a secluded corner where he could watched the happenings around him. He had purposely left his friends, they were stumbling all over his emotions and he did not know how long he could hold himself before punching them.
"Here you are" Bolarinwa said dropping to the seat before him
"You look worried" Bolarinwa said again. Wande raised his brow at him.
"Come on, I know you. You don't drink except you want to forget something"
If he denied it, he would be lying to both of them "Yes, I errm troubled" Wande replied
"My sister?" Bolarinwa asked.
"No" Wande lied
"Oh please, I know its her. You looked at her as if you want to kiss and strangled her" Bolarinwa said again
Wande sighed, there were things one do not discussed with brother in-laws. Bola would not be pleased if he told him he planned to dealt with his father and his sister for duping him.
"Everything is fine, don't worry yourself" Wande assured
It was Bolarinwa's turn to sigh, his friend hardly shared his problems with him since he got married. Especially if it was related to his sister. The perks of being a brother in-law.
"Wande, I am still your friend and you can always talk to me" he said and stood up to leave when his sister approached him.
"Brother Bola, daddy's wife wants to see you" that was what they called Mrs Olaonipekun behind her.
"Why?" he asked. His memory of the woman was not fun either. She was the reason behind his holidays in the boarding house. The woman was not cruel to them but she treated them like they never existed. It was just her, husband and her daughters. The rest of them were out of the picture.
"She apologized to me, saying she wants us to be one big family. That she was wrong with her treatment of us" Olaronke said
"What do you think?" Bolarinwa asked her
"I have you and that's all that matters to me" she said this hugging him, while he did a tongue out at Wande
"All right let me see her" Bolarinwa said leaving her alone with her husband.
"Oko Mi (my husband)" Olaronke said excitedly jumping on his laps.
Her use of endearment started four days ago and he was enjoying it. In fact, iroomsected his libido in a way he could not explain. She leaned in after looking around her and quickly kissed him on his lips. He almost laughed. She was still shy about some things after the intimacies they shared. They no longer slept in different rooms, she had moved into his after the night at the hotel. He had enjoyed every waking moments with her. She whispered most of her words as if she was worried someone was listening.
"I am excited about today. Thank you very much" she grinned
"You are welcome" he said
"Do you like my friend? She's my best friend" Olaronke said
"That eccentric girl. How well do you know her?" Wande asked.
One of his friends had recognized the tatoo on Aina's hand. Kunle said she was one of the girls that frequented Glorious night. But it was hard to believe Kunle, he always claimed he had slept with beautiful women that came his way. It was mostly lies.
"Very well, she's my friend" she replied
"She's how many years younger than you?"
"Two years and months" she answered
Aina 25th birthday was in December.
Wande did the calculation in his head, it was possible Aina had visited the hotel during the period of ten years. Had Olaronke visited too?
"My period ended this morning" she whispered.
He almost did not hear her with different thoughts crowding his mind
"And?" Wande asked smiling
"It means tonight, you and me..." She smiled
He laughed at her expression until someone tapped him on his shoulder, it was her father.
"Daddy" he greeted lifting his wife off his laps
"Babawande, my good child" the man praised while he rolled his eyes.
"It's late, the party is dying down and I am about to retire. Let me see your wife" Mr Olaonipekun said taking his daughter with him.

Wande looked around the restaurant,most guests had left. Only his friends and some few others were left behind. He saw his wife's friend sitting closely with Kunle his friend who was running his hand over her. Was it true she visited that hotel? Was Adunni with her? He hated his train of thoughts.
If she was there, he would have known. Would he have known? Aina was there and he didn't know. The ladies usually wore masks to concealed their appearance. He needed to question his wife. He searched for her wondering where her father took her. He asked one of the staffs who pointed to the direction. He was about to make his presence known when he heard her father's voice.
"Have you talked to your gynae Doctor?" He asked
About what? Wande wondered
"Yes daddy, I saw him last week" she replied
"What did he say about pregnancy?" Mr Olaonipekun questioned again
"He said I can always get pregnant" she answered
"Be quick with that, you know you have to"
She laughed over that and replied "There's no need to rush Wande will understand"
He didn't wait to hear more. Her words confirmed his suspicion. Without saying goodbye to anyone, he walked out of the restaurant and headed home even though it was past ten already and they had rooms booked at a nearby hotel.

Chapter Four

Olaronke waited impatiently for her best friend to answer the phone. It had been eight weeks since they talked and she knew it was cruel of her. Aina loved her like a sister. She was happy when dhe was and frustrated whenever she was sad. She could remembered how they had met at school. Olaronke was staying with one of her classmates back in secondary school waiting for the third supplementary admission lists to be released. She had been writing JAMB for the past three years to study her dream course Mass Communication. But her dream was threatened by POST UME, she was always two marks behind the cut off. Her mates were already in their finals and she felt out of place and isolated.
It was when she broke down in tears as she checked her admission status at the cafe she met Aina. The latter had shushed her and took her outside.
"Why did you embarrassed yourself like that?" Aina asked
"I was not given admission" she cried.
"I can't go back home my mates are serving already" she added
"Just calm down. What course did you choose?" She questioned
"Mass comm" she answered.
"I can pull some strings for you. I am not sure you will get your desired course but you will be accepted into this university. Let's go" she promised.
That was how their relationship started.

Her voice came to the line"Adunni?"
"Ore miiiii" she screamed back while Aina sighed.
"It's been eight weeks" Aina was horrified
"I am sorry" she apologized
"You just went into ghost mode" she said again
Olaronke chuckled "Yea. How are you?"
"I am sick of worry. I received your text message and afterwards I couldn't reach you. Where are you? " Aina asked.
"Girlfriend, you will have to calm down. I have some great news to share that might tip you off a cliff" Olaronke grinned waiting for the squeal. It came, but louder this time.
"I am strong enough to hear it" was her reply
"I got married two days after O..."
"After Oluwaniyi left you" she screamed
"Wow! To who?" She asked
"Babawande, you remember him?" Olaronke akedd but the answering machine informed her, her airtime was exhausted.
She waited for few seconds before her call came through
"Who?" Aina asked
"Babawande" she replied
"Your boyfriend from cradle" she said laughing.
"Yea" Olaronke said
"How's it?" Aina asked
"Fine. We are over the storm. Do you still have Lizzy's contact?"
"Yes, why?" Aina asked, she was in her parents house preparing for the coming wedding anniversary.
"I need to buy sexy under wears. One I can wear for a wedding night. It's about to happen" Olaronke grinned.
"Ha- I have her contact, I will forward it to you"
"Thank you. What's up with you? Any new guy?" Olaronke asked
"No, just that doctor. You remember him? Stevie, we are together now" Aina laughed hearing her friend screamed in shock
"What's change? I mean you hated seeing him" Olaronke said.
Men are funny creatures. How Stevie could still chase after Aina was a puzzle. She could recalled how her friend treated him with hatred.
"That was then and all in the past. He's been the only one who loved me all these years. All the men I dated did not want me for their wife. But Stevie wants to make me a wife" Aina said
"Are you happy?" She asked
"Trust me, I am"
"Well am happy for you. Stevie is a good guy" Olaronke said
"Yeah and rich and looking presentable. Do you know he removed that disfigurement; his front tooth? She asked
" Yea, I heard that" Olaronke replied
"I will be opening my restaurant in the in next three days, will you come?" She invited her
"That's my parents wedding anniversary day, have you forgotten so soon?" Aina asked
They talked about everything before they ended the call.
Aina laughed, Adunni knew how to help her. She made her job easier.
********************
Three days later,

"I presume you came in here for the most important reason, Adeola" Wande said, his tone although cool was tinted in anger. He had warned his temporary Secretary never to allow Grace into his office. After yesterday, he knew he could not live through another drama.
There was a moment's pause"Sir, there's a reason " .
Adeola replied unsure, his boss tick over everything these days.
"And that is....." He prompted, praying her reason was dammed good or else he would show her the door
"A lady....." She began but he jumped him
"I hope its not Grace" he asked through gritted teeth
"No sir. A lady who refused to give me her name gave me this envelope for you" she said waving the envelope
"Take two steps backward, take another four, take another six. Take another three" he instructed till her back was resting at the door.
"Good. You don't know your job, do you? How can you allow a stranger to drop the letter without informing the security to search her" Wande breathed, he was frustrated with the girl "It could be poisoned or a letter bomb for all we know. Now open it and read"
With shaky hands, she opened the sealed letter
"It's about your wife. She's deceitful. Have you had a seconds to think about why she married you after her failed nuptial to a man who dated her for three years? A man she was hopelessly in love with? She is pregnant. She and her father decided to pass the...."
"Are you sick?" Wande barked at her
"No sir"
"How dare you speak ill about my wife?" He was on his feet now roaring in anger.
"Sir I read the letter" she said helplessly
"Leave" he ordered.
The girl left in a hurry and forgot to close the door.
He strode towards the door and shot it in anger. The envelope was still lying on the floor of his office. He picked it up examing if there was any address written on it. None was written. He checked the rest of the contents. It contained his wife pictures with her Ex. They look good together. She was clearly in love with him. Adunni was pregnant. No wonder she was eager to be intimate with him. His gut warned him but like a fool he shoved down all his suspicions and where did it lead him?
"Babawande calm down" he spoke to himself looking through the architectural glass. He picked up the letter, examining each words.
"She's deceitful" he read
Well she was. He agreed to that.And read the other sentence.
Was it possible for a jilted lady in love to remaary just in two days? He pondered over this pacing about the room.
Even widows waited for years before they remarry. There must be a reason behind it. A secret was more like it. And her father's action was suspicious. Why did he called him last year December to come home and marry his daughter, and February he was marrying her off to another man. She must have been pregnant.
"Maybe she got pregnant deliberately to avoid marriage to him" he thought over that. It made sense.
"Pregnant women don't menstruate, do they?" He asked himself thinking about that night four days ago. He was too busy handling her body; well the upper part of her body to noticed any difference and at the bathroom the bathtub didn't turn red.
"If she was pregnant, she should be showing by now, it was May already" he thought over that.
"Did she abort the baby, was that why she claimed she was menstruating?" He asked himself.
His head began to pound as several thoughts poured in and out. He read the note further. She was trying to pass another man's baby as his. It was true. Right from their wedding day, that cloth she wore was red; bold and seductive revealing her boobs. Afterwards, she was always wearing revealing clothes. He thought he was the smart one all along. He treated her with kindness, allowing himself to care for her, to believe in a future together and he sped the process; never allowing her to grief for an hour. Yet, she and her father no doubt had been laughing over his gullibility. Her father had known he had no choice but to marry her by involving his uncles. And Bolarinwa, when did he became devious? He had said something about family loyalty? Was that what it was called these days? Duping a friend because of family? No, he didn't believed he would do that to him. Olaronke and her father were the devil.
He would not lie down to coercion. He was a man, not a fool even though he had been behaving like one years ago. A short buzz alerted him that his next appointment had arrived. Business as usual was much more comfortable than drowning in destructive emotions.
***********
In the afternoon,

Wande weighed carefully in his mind whether it was the best revenge to travel to Abuja for his business and in the process missing his wife restaurant grand opening or served her divorce papers. No, no, no. That would be too quick. He could humiliate her by giving her five months more. By then she would be popping out a baby. If she had not abort it already. He sighed. Who could have sent those pictures and letter? Could it be Grace? No. He discarded the thought. Grace knew nothing about his wife. It has to be someone who knew Adunni. Was it her step mother? Yes. It could be her. She was closer to Adunni's family to be privy to such information. Whoever it was, was either trying to separate them or really speaking the truth. Whether it was the truth or not he could read the mind of the sender. Her aim was separation.

He would not leave his wife. He might thought her devious, but she was giving and generous at the same time. He would stay married to her and gave her months to detect if she and her father were playing him. There has to be a secret behind it. A woman who was in love with a man do not attempt to jumped into bed with another. That was her aim since the beginning of their marriage.
"First of all" he heard his wife well spoken voice
"I would like to welcome you all to the grand opening of the brand new Ronny Restaurant. Today
May 5th 2017 is an historic day in my life"
Wande heard his wife's voice through the microphone as he strode along the corridor towards the restaurant hall. Her tone intrigued him despite his anger at her. Just as he reached his seat, his eyes locked with those of his wife's. Her speech faltered as she flashed him a quick smile that almost melt his insides. Almost if not for her deceitful act. His eyes roamed over her figure resting itself on her stomach. She was dressed in an orange jewel gown. It hugged every inch of her and her boobs were unusually big. Was it the pregnancy?
"It looks like your marriage to my sister is having a very good effect on you. Your eyes are just fixed on her body. You didn't even say hi to we your friends" Bolarinwa teased clapping him on his back.
Wande turned to see the stupid grins on his friends face. He was done for. Everyone of them looked like they had something to say.
"He's in love with her" Kunle said grinning
Wande rolled his eyes heavenward. He regretted inviting them over.
"Would you guys please display some manners, a beautiful lady is on the stage addressing us" Wande scolded and the others burst out laughing
"I told you guys, Wande is in love. Ever since he got married, he has lost his sense of humor. I teased him about his clingy Grace and he almost knocked my teeth off" Bayo said chuckling
"Ha clingy Grace, that girl called me tire. Begging me to talk to my brother in-law to marry her" Bolarinwa said frowning
"I can imagine how you must have felt" kunle said.
"She's beautiful, isn't she?" Bayo asked, his eyes following that of Wande's
"She's my wife" was his hard reply. He doubled the effect by glaring at them. They rewarded him with a knowing smile
"A man is in love when he is ready to go violence because of his woman. You had a sister this beautiful and you could not introduce her to me" Kunle said to Bolarinwa
But Adunni's voice drowned whatever her brother was about to say.
"And now I will like to call on stage my husband Babawande Adufe Williams. My beloved husband that made this happened" Olaronke grinned at him.
He walked to the stage and plastered a quick kiss on her forehead. That was the last she would ever got from him. He swore.

Alright

"There was a time I used to like you" Olaronke said smiling easily at Wande. Marriage life had been a lot easier than she ever imagined with Wande. After the horrible episode with Grace, they had easily confronted each other on their past mistakes.Wande had accused her of misleading him all those years, receiving his every gifts while she was seeing someone else. She retaliated by recounting his relationship with some ladies she knew back then. With pride overriding their senses, they had stuck to the wrong assumptions. Wande didn't correct her. Those ladies were just friends and it was until later he told her. Tonight, all inhibitions gone, she would revealed her thoughts to him.
Wande winged his eyebrow upward and waved his hand at her to continue. He was eating dinner after waiting nearly two hours for his wife to show up at their dinner date. Her words about liking him was not enough to dull is hunger.
"Love you was more like it" she said again
They had been married for eight weeks. His kindness and compassion had eased her broken heart over her ex. He kept reminding her Oluwaniyi was married so was she whenever she was moody. It had worked in addition to her discovery: his store was filled with catering equipments he bought for her. When she asked him about it, he explained it was his wedding gifts to her and he hoped she would start her restaurant soon. She was awed and wanted to cry. Every pieces of the house was planned with her in his mind. He painted her room with her favorite color. They had spent the following week looking for a property she could turned into a restaurant at Ikeja. She found one she fell in love with and she cringed whenever she thought of its cost. Wande had paid for it like it was a piece of candy. That had eased their affection. Most times she found his hands around her, whenever they went out. The morning kiss that has become a tradition to them. She sometimes wondered if he was attracted to her or just saw her his sister. They were yet to consummate their marriage. She was ready on her own part, if Oluwaniyi was living happily with his wife so would she. He had not made move on his part while she had made every move on her part. She dressed in revealing night gowns every night. But he hardly bat an eyelid. His good night kisses became perfunctory.
Her last words got him "Love me? Wow! Tell me about it" his eyes held amusement as he chewed on his meats.
She stared at his handsome face she missed this past few days he traveled to Abuja on a business trip. She missed him and the house felt bigger. His calls was her rescue. They talked about everything and he always showed interest in how she had spent her day. He'd answered her questions about his business, sharing his pleasures and frustrations depending on how his day had gone. This morning he had called to inform her he would be at a dinner party organized by one his business partners and he wanted her to be there. She was excited and spent hours deciding on what to wear. She wanted to see that masculine appreciation again in his eyes whenever she dressed up for him at the boutiques they frequented.
"I was pleased to have someone older as my fiance. I always bragged to my classmates about it. And I had this romantic picture we took together on my birthday. I showed it to everyone" she smiled dreamily. In the picture, he had put his arm around her.
"What's change?" he drawled
While the waiter was placing their drinks on the table. She couldn't help but compared him with her ex. They were opposite of each other. He smiled easily, he enjoyed taking her out because it made her happy. She could remember her time with Oluwaniyi was spent mostly waiting for him at his office. He was always busy. Though, he was free with his money There wasn't an amount too large to spend on her. He had really loved her enough to agreed to live celibate until they were married. What went wrong? Why would he leave her for Bonuade? She sighed. She had sent several text to his phone but there was no response. Whatever her crime was, he should have been patient enough to see her and discussed it. But Lawyer Oluwaniyi act fast without thinking. That was his biggest flaw. She knew if roles were to be reversed, Wande would never have left her on their wedding day nor would Oluwaniyi be so forgiven to marry his betrothed after she rebuffed their dates and went ahead to marry someone else while receiving his gifts.
"When I was twenty one, I told my father I wanted to get married to you. He called you in my presence and I heard everything. Everything " she emphasized
"I called you olodo (zero scorer). I am very sorry" he apologized
"It's fine" she smiled at him.

He reached across the table and took her left hand in his right. The band of gold he slipped around her finger to complete their vows shone under the candle light. He lifted it to his lips and kissed it.
"Thank you for marrying me" she said breathlessly . One of her fingers had found its way into his hot silky mouth. He flicked his tongue out and licked. While she melt inside.
"Did I have choice with your dad and my uncles on my neck" he mocked blowing air in the damp fingers.
"You could have refused for the seventh time" she gave him a shaky smile.
"You knew about the others? " he was genuinely shocked
She nodded wondering why he stopped caressing her fingers.
"That was what prompted me to date him. I was hurt by your rejection " she said referring to her ex.
"I was waiting for the right time" he smiled as his fingers moved beneath the table finding the zipper of that mini skirt that teased his brain.
Her mouth formed a huge "O" as she looked around her, Her expression almost comical
"What are you doing?" she whispered, which was very silly. The other diners had quickly turned the social event to another business venture. They closeted themselves in a corner forming plurals and multis. He could not imagine himself discussing business after he had worked his ass off during day. He agreed he was not in need of it, his last ten years was spent developing his business holdings. Now everything thing was calm, he could indulge in many night of pleasures starting with his wife.
He smiled at her "Am I turning you on already?" his fingers had disloged the flimsy shirt she tucked into her skirt. He was now playing with smooth skin that almost seared his hand with its hotness.
"People are watching " she gasped
"Let them " he replied
"I have a room in the hotel, we could go right? " he asked her
"Yes, yes" she replied quickly.
He watched her looked about her before she quickly adjusted her clothes. The other diners were distracted and he couldn't care less if they weren't. There was no way he would hid his bulging trouser. He took her hand in his and walked her to his hotel room. His plan was finally working out as he had originally expected. Women once again proved his theory was right. Women were like pets; care for them, snuggle with them, shower them with attention and be generous with them and they would sooner be eating out of your hands. Just two months, she had forgotten about her ex. Well, almost completely forgotten about him. And tonight, he would erased whatever passion they might have had in the past. It was for his own good. The sooner the ghost of her ex was no longer lurking around, the sooner he would enjoy his marriage. He believed she could make him happy. Their marriage would work. It has to. There was no room for mourning her lost love. She was married to him forever.

He opened the room to the luxurious hotel and ushered are in. He was about to offer her some privacy to catch her breath and think things through but Adunni pounced on his lips he almost chuckled. He had to calm her down and took control. His tongue took residence in her mouth and she found herself plastered against the wall. She was consumed by her passion it seemed the kiss was not enough. His hands cupped her bottom aligning her to his male flesh she screamed with pleasure. She had never known anything so intimate in her life. The closest thing she had with Oluwaniyi was their kiss. Nothing more. He pressed her firmly against him while deftly undoing her buttons to cup her boobs. It was the most exquisite feeling and this time even his mouth covering hers could not stifle the shriek of pleasure. She gasped as she watched him took one of her hardened nut into his mouth. She held onto his head. He released her and laced the second nut with the same attentiin she squirmed with pleasure.
"Adunni" his mouth rocked back over hers in another soul-wrecking kiss.
It went on and on and she lost all touch with reality. She could feel only his hard body on hers. Only his mouth that tasted of refined wine and only their hearts that beats loudly enough for the whole building to hear. He groaned as her clothes parted away from her, his eyes was on her underpants when a voice of reason spoke to her. She held his fingers from her.
"Wande" she called
He seemed not to hear. His tongue was already tracing another part on her neck.
She tried pushing him and called his name again
"What?" he asked, his eyes lidded staring at her boobs
"I'm on my period" she replied
"What's that?" he asked looking confused
"Menstruation " she tried again
"You menstruate?" he asked stupidly
Did he know about it? Did her father told him? Olaronke wondered.
He groaned, this time not in pleasure as reality dawned on him. His wife was on her period while his blood was raising with lust.
"I'm sorry " he said kissing her cheek
"It lasts for four days. We could do this again" she said shyly.
"Sure. Let's go to the bathroom " he carried her off amidst her false protests.
