1)happiness at first

Mabel's Pov
"Wakey wakey" sleeping beauty Kendrick woke me up planting kisses all over my face ,damn it was 3.am .oh !did today have to come I thought as I stood up ,my husband was leaving for work today, his leave was over as he was given a six months holiday to plan our wedding ,the past six months has been the very best.
      Kendy insists we have a early morning picnic to spend some more time together as his bus is coming early,Here in the Village vehicle are rarely seen except the ones from agro industries coming to buy products. we quietly crept out of our room like eloping teens ,not wanting to wake Pa and Ma my parents in law we took some blankets and some snacks.
       Sitting under the open sky we talked and laughed to our hearts contents and suddenly a thought crept in ," dear ,when are you returning from work "I asked, and what if you find a more pretty woman. " Then my dearest am going to kiss that pretty woman and tell her how lucky she is to have you as a mother " he replied flirtingly making me blush like an overripe Tomato. "As to when I will return I don't know yet you know you superhero husband has to save lives ". "Ok Mr superhero I am looking for my husband please, his about six foot tall, with the cutest smile,brown eyes,muscular, fair and his a soldier " I mockingly replied.
          Kendy picked me up and twirled around  seeing the way we play  one would think we are teenagers ,that's to say how lucky I am because most women in the village worship their husband they can't even speak freely with them especially the under women and those married off to settle debts.
We danced  to no music in particular letting the wind play for us,then Kendy handed me a gift he told me not to open it until he was gone,I also gave a gift it was a sweet smelling perfume I had gotten from a local dealer." Thanks love" he said caressing my neck as we dippened into a kiss ...
          I woke up to the crock crow I told Kendy that is time to go in ,as we went in we saw the workers resuming their work,I decided to have my bath and get ready for the day so very grumpy Ma wouldn't skin me alive, oh! Hope I didn't say that out loud.
Our mansion was filled with guest, did I mention Pa was the village head, so many people had come to wave Kendy goodbye, he was the only son of Pa ,Ma had two other daughters felicia and Patricia ,felicia was married off to a man twice her age and the other was not married yet Kendrick was the last child and a miracle as Ma had him in her fifties,he was the among  the few that got a formal education I'm the province. My father in law drove his three other wives as they couldn't produce male sons .
            I came out after assisting Ma in the kitchen ,that's the only job I do in the house ,with my head covered as women can't open their hair or raise up their head in the presence of male in our village women as seen as worthless being,so you see while Ma was blessed with  Kendrick.
I waved goodbye with mixed families ,I am going to miss him so much.
