THE FARHAN'S

~~~~3

I got up after the phone call and went straight into the bathroom to take a bath. When I got to the bathroom, I went straight to the shower and turned it on. I waited until the water was warm enough for me to be in before positioning myself squarely beneath the rushing water, all the while absorbed in so many taughts . I remembered attending Amal's bridal shower, their kamu event, and dressing up for their dinner reception ... That's when it dawned on me that I had literally attended my husband and and my co wive events ..to say I felt foolish ,embarrassed ,used and betrayed was an understatement ,my taughts again wondered to amal like how on earth will she agree to marry my husband and allow me to to attend the events? What was she thinking? Did she do that just to make me a laughing stock or what ....that exact moment was my break down moment I allowed my self to slid down and cry, I cried like there was no tomorrow ,there is pain ..pain in my heart... pain in my body ...pain everywhere ,I allowed my tears to flow under the shower till I felt better,I stood up took my bath and dressed up then went to the kitchen to prepare for his lunch

1 was about to return to my room when I realized it was 3:00pm and there was still no sign of Farhan. I was tired of waiting so I set up the table and was about to retire to my room when My heart started beating faster than it should as I heard footsteps approaching the dining area where I was. He had his key, so I wasn't surprised when I heard the footsteps and knew it was him.

He walked up to me with a big smile on his face and kissed my forehead. I felt compelled to push him away because that gesture was inappropriate for the situation I was in at that moment , but before I could react, I was engulfed in a hug. At that point, I decided to keep quiet and wait for him or his wife to tell me the truth... I was just responding with a basic yes or no throughout any conversations we had because he was the only one speaking.I could feel he knew something was off with the type of reply's I was giving him but I just didn't care ,I was hurt and I am still hurting

******
It was dinner time ..I didn't have the strength to cook anything so I just prepared noodles and set up the table
Since he came back he was in his room throughout speaking on phone, I knocked and shouted dinner is ready then left for the dinning area without even waiting for his reply .. He came after sometime and then and sat down next to me, I forced a smile and he returned the gesture... is there anything wrong, he inquired?
No, why are you asking, I replied. You appear a little off, as if something is bothering you; are you sure you aren't concealing anything?
There's no need to be concerned; I'm just suffering from a minor headache. He nodded as I replied.
Then he went on to say that the mood seemed odd to him as well.
I smiled and told him not to worry because my period was about to start. I started serving him food when he received a notification from his phone. He blushed and laughed like a giddy adolescent in love. I kept staring at him, waiting for him to notice me, but he didn't. I cleared my voice, but there was still no response... and then I let out a hmmm.
Do you intend to leave the noodles out until they become cold? My gaze was fixed on him.
Ohh sorry I didn't even realise you were done serving, he continued. "You'll know I've finished serving when you're paying attention, ay I remarked."
Are you jealous because I wasn't paying attention to you? he answered .
Am I not, I replied, adding whose SMS it was that was making you all mushy mushy?
Clearly he was not expecting that question and it kind of took him off guard but he didn't even take up to 2 seconds before he said it's a joke from my office colleague ,I kept a straight face and answered with an okay ,I was hurt but he couldn't see it ..Unlike before when I was hurt or unhappy and he would always notice my face .
We normally eat on the same plate, especially when he returns from a short or long trip like today, but he didn't even notice..with this behavior I knew I had a long way to go...he ate small and excused himself saying he had to go to the masjid for isha prayer, I nodded and started packing the plates to the kitchen...
Before he returned, I cleaned the kitchen and dining room.

After he was back I inquired as to where he was, and he replied, "I met my FREINDS at the masjid today so we decided to gist for some time," to which I nodded, and he invited me to come and sleep... We usually go to bed early, about 1 o'clock, 11 o'clock, or no later than 12 o'clock. I nodded and turned off the lights, leaving only the light from the lamp beside me. I sat down beside him on the bed, and he cuddled me. I was still silent, and my thoughts drifted back to his marriage.
His first night is today...
He is going to experience something different, something more exciting on his first night with his new wife and as a virgin. I shook my head, and tears began to flow. We stayed like that for almost 3 hours before he decided to leave...little did he know I wasn't asleep, I was just pretending I heard his car leaving the compound and I stood up from the bed, rested my head on the bed board and cried, I cried until I was gasping for air before I decided to pray, I prayed to my lord and asked him to ease my pain as only he can...
Farhan returned to the house at 4:30 a.m. and greeted me...
He asked when I awoke, and I told him not long ago I had just finished praying the Nafila. He nodded and said he too, he had just gone to his own room's bathroom.I nodded and he told me he will be leaving for the subhi prayer

He didn't take long to return, and when he did, he checked on me while I pretended to be fast asleep, and then he returned to his sitting room. I continued hearing his laughter from my room, and it sparked an internal reaction...was it contempt, anger, envy, or something else? It was a mixed kind of feeling and I had no idea what I was experiencing, but I knew Slowly but steadily, I was approaching my outburst.
