He Stoled My Vaginity

chapter 9

I cried out loud under the rain, why is mum doing this to me?
Why?
She's not my mother, I repeated she's not my mother.
I rise up and started looking for where to hid.
My body already changed due to the cold.
Hope I won't freeze to death before day break?
I bend under Raymond car shaking and feeling so weak and sick.
Oh my God!
Raymond!
Raymond!
What have I done wrong?
What ?
I screamed and even tears refused to drop.
I placed my head on the car gently and slept off in the rain.
A loud sound woke me up the next day.
I got so scared, Who's that? Who's that?
I howled.
I felt so weak and dizzy.
Raymond entered his car.
He saw me standing and looking so dull.
He ignored and immediately drove off the compound.
I walked like a drunkard to the entrance.
I opened and noticed the door wasn't lock.
I went straight to the kitchen.
I wanted to get hot water to bath, but my body was so hot and feeling cold.
What am I supposed to do?
God!
I don't know what to do?
I was afraid to bath with hot water because of my body.
Will I bath with hot water when my temperature is high?
No, tears rolled down my face, I don't know why am experiencing all this when have not even spend a month in marriage.
Is this what all married women experience?
Is all men like Raymond?
No they can't be like him, cos mother won't be with father if all guys happens to be like Raymond.
I decided to use warm water to calm my body down.
I sat under the water and couldn't control my tears.
Why on earth will I ever forced myself on Raymond?
Why?
I am not crippled or disabled?
Why can't I just focus on my study instead of chasing a guy that doesn't even know l existed.
Ever since I got married to Raymond have not been to school.
Though I already signed out waiting for my NYSC call up letter.
Before I was thinking Raymond and I should be posted together.
But now, I don't think I can stay with him.
Posting us in same state is only going to worsen the situation.
I can't stay a minute with Raymond in same room.
This is getting too much for me.
If not for the love I have for Raymond, If not for the love.
I walked to the living room felling so weak and tired.
Hope am not going to die before Raymond comes back.
I pick up my phone to call my mother.
I need to call her, this is getting out of hand.
I suddenly heard her voice outside.
Rina your mother is here.
I ran to the entrance, open the door and hug her so tight.
Rina!
Oh my God, she freed herself.
Why is your body so hot?
She touched my forehead and screamed.
Rina do you want to kill yourself.?
Did Raymond knows you aren't feeling alright?
I Shaked my head.
You can't even inform your husband before he left.
Where is Raymond by the way?
Why does he have to leave you in this condition?
I think you both slept together in same room and he doesn't notice or observed anything.
Oh my God!
She picked up her phone and immediately call a nurse to come over.
Rina so if I didn't come, you won't bother to treat yourself.
See life goes on, if you decide to keep hiding things from people, it's your life Rina.
You owns your decision and can decide how to use your life.
But this very one is wrong, it's totally wrong.
I faced mum and realized all she had been sayings was definitely for my good.
Had it been, I opened up to her the very day I met Raymond at my parents house.
Had it been I told her how the lecturer deceived and raped me.
Had it been I told her everything right from the beginning, I think I wouldn't have end up this way.
Now, to utter it out sound so difficult and hard for me.
I was so blinded by love that I didn't see the bad side of Raymond that make me get married to him.
Believe me, Raymond isn't the man for me.
He's never the man for me.
Mother noticed tears on my face, she used the edge of her clothes to clean my face.
Rina is never too late to open up to your mother, please am pleading not like your mother but a friend.
My instincts keeps telling me you aren't alright Rina, but if you refused to say it out.
I'm not a prophet that sees things without asking.
I heard a knock, that should be nurse Temi, mother replied.
Come in, the door isn't locked.
Mother's phone started ringing.
She picked and hurriedly carried her bag.
Rina am sorry, I would have loved to stay but your father just called that he's home hungry and missing me.
She turned to nurse Temi.
Please do take care of my daughter, please!
Rina if not because I don't want to starved your father, I would have loved to stay here till tomorrow.
But since everything turns out like this, Rihanna I'll come visit you again soon.
She carried her bag and hastily walked out.
Mother didn't know I took her second phone, I opened and started searching for Raymond's mother number.
I keep peeping praying mother won't come back to ask for her phone.
My hands started shaking due to how I was rushing to search for it.
I smiled after seeing Raymond's momma saved on mother's phone.
I hurriedly crammed the number off hand when I noticed mother coming back in.
Rina it seems I dropped my second phone here?
I handed it over to her, you left it on the couch.
She sighed heavily, but how come ?cos I didn't bring the phone out from my bag.
She collected it and left.
The nurse sat on the couch looking at the drama I was displaying.
She started checking my body and I was asked to urinate in a small plastic.
After some minutes, she gave me some drugs and handed over a paper to me.
Don't you think I needed to be given drip and injection I asked.
She smiled, you don't need that for now.
Just make sure you read the paper given to you.
She carried her bag and left.
I didn't bother to open the paper, what matters right now is calling Raymond's mother.
I dialled the number on my phone.
She picked on the first ring.
Hello ! Hello ma.
She kept mute and didn't say a word.
Hello ma, please talk to me.
Rihanna Rihanna!!!! is that you?
I was so surprised, how did she know my name?
Yes! Yes it's Rina ma.
Please ma, can you come over to Raymond's house.
You mean! You mean I should come over there, she said stammering.
Yes mother, I would have preferred to come over but am not feeling well.
Alright, Rina am on my way right now.
I disconnected the phone,
With the help of Mother inlaw, some things are going to be revealed.
I forced myself to drink tea and felt the urge to vomit, no!
I can't, I have to take this drug.
I took the drug and lay gently on the couch.
So mother left me because of her husband.
I guessed Raymond and I are quite different from other couples.
Even mother and father that got married in 1990's are living happily.
I heard a voice, that must be mother inlaw.
She walked into the living room looking so shabby and dirty.
I was so surprised, I opened my mouth wide not able to close.
No this can't be Raymond's mother.
No!
I faked a smile, she can't be.
This woman is so dirty, no she can't be my mother inlaw.
I faced her, please who are you looking for ma.
Are you Rina?
Yes of course, I'm Rihanna.
I ...... She stopped and bursted into tears.
I am......... Raymond! Raymond.
She couldn't complete it before Raymond entered.
Raymond walked in and noticed the woman standing.
He moved close to me and Screamed.
Who the hell allowed this woman into my house?
Who?
Rihanna, are youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, he slapped me before I could answer.
How did you get in here?
I held my cheek and couldn't utter a word.
Rina!! I warned you.
I warned you but you damn choose to ruin my life.
Right now, right now I can't take it anymore.
I said I can't take it anymore.
He threw a paper at me and faced the woman.
Woman leave before I called the police.
Leave !!!! Leave.
The woman immediately ran out of the house.
Raymond faced me, you.
I think it's time we go our separate way.
I can't believe I got married to a nuisance, whore, bitch and crazy harlot like you.
He walked to his room angrily.
I picked up the paper Raymond threw at me.
I picked the second paper the nurse gave me.
Tears filled my face.
I was so scared to read the two papers.
My hands started shaking, I sat on the couch and broke into hot tears.
TWO PAPERS ON SAME DAY.
