I AM NOW MARRIED Episode 1 – Princess Stories
Kemi’s POV
“Baby……babe wake up, you’d be late for work” I say, gently waking my love up. I have prepared everything he needs, his breakfast is ready and his clothes properly ironed. All that is left is for him to eat, dress up and get to work
Forgive my manners please, I forgot to introduce myself (don’t mind me, I’m just too excited, I can’t believe I’m now married, a married woman ).
My name is Kemisola Aigbogun….I mean Mrs Kemisola Aigbogun, Oh my God, isn’t it lovely? I’m now married; not just married, I’m married to the love of my life. The man who loves me more than I love him. I consider myself a lucky lady to have married him honestly.
Uhmmm….wat else do u need to know about me yes I have a best friend, her name is Esther……she has been my bestie since my University days, we’ve treated each other like sisters and I love her as one. She isn’t married yet though, said she hasn’t found the man of her dreams yet so she’ll keep waiting. Though she isn’t married, I tell everything that happens at home to her. They say when you get married, you shouldn’t mingle with singles as they could pull you down and snatch your husband blah blah blah….buh ion believe all that. I mean, she’s my best friend and I don’t see any reason she’d wanna hurt me or pull my marriage down.
Okay enough of me.
“Babe….ahn ahn nw wake up, at least I made sure you you slept early last night” I said while pouting
He stretched a little”Good morning love”
“Haba….I’ve been trying to wake you up since now” I said, still pouting to which he giggled
“I had wanted to sleep a little longer you know” he said, giving me a peck to which I blushed.
“Come on, come off bed, breakfast is ready” I said, playfully dragging him from the bed….
He ate, dressed up and left for work.
“Good luck today baby” I said from the kitchen.
“Yeah come see me off” He said, adjusting his tie in the parlour
I obeyed and joined him shortly, adjusting his tie (not that I know how to adjust it anyway)
“Okay….bye” he said, pecking me…I waved and smiled, seeing my husband off.
I went back into the house, dressed up to go for my normal day to day business because I’m a business woman. I don’t really spend hours selling goods, I just have to sell my goods like a wholesaler and return home. I’ve actually been planning my life like that so I can have enough time for my husband, family and the spiritual environment of my home.
Few hours later, I returned home a little stressed out so I went to the kitchen to eat as well didn’t eat before leaving the house and did some chores.
I was watching film when my husband walked in with a lady, maybe from his office I suppose
“Hey dear….” he said as he pecked my cheeks
“Hi…how was work today” O responded, subconsciously ignoring the lady behind him
“It went well, thank God…..uhmm, babe this is my bestie. Her name is Taiwo. Taiwo, this is my wife, Kemi” my husband said
“Hi….nice to meet you” I said with a smile, stretching forth my hands for a handshake.
Sue looked at me and ignored
“Mark please show me to my room” she said as she went with Mark
I didn’t realize my mouth was agape…. Like seriously, why would she respond that way, she didn’t even respond at all o. And why would Mark my husband not inform me that we would be having a visitor before bringing her in….. I mean I’m his wife, he should have told..
I AM NOW MARRIED Episode 2
I didn’t realize my mouth was agape…. Like seriously, why would she respond that way, she didn’t even respond at all o. And why would Mark my husband not inform me that we would be having a visitor before bringing her in….. I mean I’m his wife, he should have told me.
I managed to close my mouth I headed to the master’s bedroom. On getting there, I met my husband on the bed, pinging, obviously waiting for me
“Hey….” I said
” Hi baby…..been waiting for you so we could study the Bible together…” He responded as he dropped his phone. I joined him on bed with the intention of questioning him concerning his best friend…… seriously, that title is new to me as he hasn’t mentioned it before.
“Sweetheart, who’s that lady friend” I asked calmly
“She’s my friend….best friend, we’ve been together since our university days.
She just got back from abroad and has no place to stay so I offered to bring her here to stay with us” he said, stroking my hair , probably so I won’t get angry..
“Okay but……don’t you think she’s a threat to our marriage, the relationship is still young u know; just three years. Besides, you didn’t tell me we would be having a visitor. At least I’m your wife, I should’ve known.” I said, still maintaining my calm nature”
“I know dear and I’m sorry, she’s not a threat to this marriage at all I promise you. You just have to get along with her okay sweetie” He responded to which I kept silent
“Hmm…okay iffu say so”
It’s another beautiful morning * but not the usuals, I have a total stranger…my fellow woman in my house but since my husband said I shouldn’t worry about it, I’d just obey him*
So I’m gonna do my work as soon as possible today: pray, seep my stuffs, come back home to eat, rest and pray again.
I was about going out when Taiwo and I met at the door….”Hi…good morning. It’s a beautiful morning isn’t it?” I said smiling, it was obvious I was trying to start a conversation with her
“Good morning..” she simply said and left. *Well, that doesn’t bother me*
My best friend Esther is coming today and she’s spending about two hours with me so I want to quickly get some drinks and snacks as well as prepare the food we’d eat *that is, if we would*
It’s been an hour I’ve been on that before I heard a knock on my door….it was Esther. I was so glad to see her as it has been a while
Now lemme introduce you to my sweet best friend, Esther
Esther is someone I met in school, my secondary school days and we were lucky enough to attend the same university which made our bond stronger. We treated each other like sisters and have always been there for each other.
Though I’m a Christian, I still keep friend with anyone as long as he/she has a good heart. You may be surprised but I am a Christian, but not a deep one at all and same goes for my husband .
So where was I?
We’ve been talking for like an hour and half now when we heard a knock on the door
“I’m coming” I responded as I stood up. It happened to be Taiwo because I know my husband doesn’t come back this early
“Hi Taiwo, welcome…..” I said as I ushered her in
“Lemme introduce you to my friend. Okay Taiwo this is Esther, Esther this is Taiwo, my husband’s friend”
“Best friend…. please excuse me ” she cut in, interrupting me and left
I kept staring at her for a while buh winked at what just happened
“Babe, what just happened?” Esther asked me
“Nothing happened” I simply said
“Haa…..you said she’s who?” She asked
“My husband’s best friend” I replied
“Best friend indeed…..better hold your hubby tight before you she snatches him from you o” she said, drawing her ears in emphasis
Wat? Could it be possible….but Mark promised it won’t happen….I tot to myself
I AM NOW MARRIED Episode 3
I tot of what Esther said but I hadn’t wanted it to bother me. It’s true that my husband is a very good man and the type that ladies would do anything to have to themselves buh I’m glad he chose me. Buh since he’s a married man, all that should change right?
I didn’t mention anything to Mark when he returned from work as he has already assured me nobody is coming between us
*Mark’s office*
“Hey best friend” Taiwo said in between smiles
Mark lifted his head to see who it was
“Oh hi….wassup. How did u manage to get past my secretary?” He said, packing the files he was working on so he could give his guest the needed attention
“Well….you know. Forget about that, how are you?” She asked
“I’m fine as you can see” he replied. Taiwo gave a smile in response.
She was looking round his office, admiring how spacious and we’ll decorated it was when her eyes caught the pictire of a young lady on his desk.
She stared at it for a while. Obviously knowing who it was she asked.
“Who’s this young lady”
“That’s Kemi, my wife” he replied
“I see, how did you guys meet anyway” she asked
“Uhmm….youth service, I met her while I was serving, I loved her person and asked for her friendship and here we are” he explained briefly, staring at the picture and smiling to himself, remembering the beautiful moments he had with her.
“Ohh I see. Well that doesn’t change anything between us right” she said, all smiles
“Yeah I guess…” He replied, not totally sure
“Good…cos you Know if I hadn’t travelled overseas then, we would’ve been married. So Don’t let her come between us.” She said with all seriousness and stood up to leave
“Well I guess I’d be leaving now, I see you have alot of things to do. See you at home dear.” She said as she made her way to the door
“Yeah bye ” Mark responded as she left and was left thinking about what she has said
Mark got home that day still thinking of what his best had said but he concluded that there was nothing to be worried about.
He got home to be greeted by his wife who had prepared his food and was waiting for him so they could eat together.
He enjoyed his meal and thanked his wife who went to stay at the veranda to enjoy the breeze blowing peacefully on her skin
“Hey babe” he whispered behind as he hugged her, to which she smiled
“Hey….hope you enjoyed your meal.” She asked in between smiles
“Yes I did…. thanks, you want to stay outside?” He asked
“Yeah I feel like” she responded
“Okay then, let’s stay together” he replied as he planted a light kiss on her neck to which she considered ticklish and laughed
Taiwo was bored in her room and decided to go outside to enjoy the cool breeze as well
Her room was downstairs which was the guest room while the master’s bedroom was upstairs.
She came out, enjoying the cool breeze while pressing her phone when she heard giggles, laughter and whispers coming from upstairs.
She looked up to see Mark and Kemi together enjoying each other’s company. Taiwo was so filled with jealousy and was thinking of what to do to interrupt them
“Uhmmm…..Mark, please come and check what’s wrong with my car” she said as she was looking at the two
Mark on the other hand, didn’t know what to do to avoid trouble from the two women: whether to stay with his wife of attend to his best friend.
