IN TWENTY ONE DAYS

ABUJA, NIGERIA.

"Innalillah! You are worse than the other brides and I thought you were the most excited one." Yasmeen rant staring at Fayha who could only yawn and lull her eyes open. She has locked her door and no one has her keys, Yasmeen had to raid the house to find a spare key to wake the sleeping beauty. She thought she would be ready by the time she arrives but she is actually worst than the other girls, they are all getting ready and out of bed.

"Oh, I'm so happy to get married but it doesn't matter since it is aligned to sleep. Now move let me get into that sanctuary before my mom decide to badge in here!" She pushed Yasmeen out of the way and locked herself in the bathroom hearing her mother's yells about how irresponsible she is.

She was sure her mother would beat her had she seen her but after she takes her bath, the woman won't be able to do a thing as her body is now for her 'husband' hehehe. Her bath took her shorter than the much needed time in the scented water. If she adds more than necessary time, her mother will badge inside her bathroom and yank her out of there and beat her ass. Her mother is not violent but at times like this, she will definitely do what she says and her body will tell her the story.

In the middle of her bath, she recalled that she was on phone last night with her husband to be when she fell asleep. She faceplamed only to shriek when her face got smeared with sud. Seriously, she just had to fall asleep when they were talking about important matters? Did he hear her snoring too?

Her eyes widen at the thought, she was so tired the day before and whenever she is tired, she snores, not so softly and not that innocent way characters or actors do. Her mother said she does it like a darn cow after endless rounds of struggle in a village, she never argued about it as she recorded it once.

She hastily left the bathroom in a towel after getting into her underwear which was an onyx pushup bra and matching panties. This shouldn't be true please, she kept ranting in her head as she made her way to the room and lunge straight for her phone on the bed beside her pillow.

For goodness sake, if he didn't hang up the phone as soon as she fell asleep, he sure heard her snoring like a cow since the phone is right where her mouth was, where a drool dropped like teardrop. She squeezed her eyes shut, this is embarrassing but that's how nature works for her.

Checking the phone, she found out he didn't hang up the phone after their talks or in the middle of it. She can clearly remember that they talked for an hour, she was staring at the clock beside her on the bedside drawer from 10PM to 11PM but he didn't hang up forty minutes later!

Just why does he have to do that to her? Listen to her snoring like that? She swallowed a hard lump, she don't want to dwell on what he must be thinking of her now. Probably thinking she was a log or something, Ya Lillahi Al-alameen, she shall act like she wasn't the one snoring or just say she was sleeping with one of her paternal cousins since he knows she don't have maternal female cousins but Bushra and them. Yes, this is the perfect idea to get him off her back.

The man can tease, especially anything that has to do with her.

Some might say she is getting married to him any minute from now and she should not be too tensed about such but there is no way she would allow herself sleep at night when she is tired. She only shores when she is tired, she will try her best not to snore and when she is tired, she will request sleeping alone.

Ha, this is one heck of a crucial situation for her. How is she going to cope with such life with her own husband? Whatever, he also snores, she don't care what he thinks and if he likes, he should not marry her.
