Chapter 9 9

Hansel walks in on me talking to his sister. Muna grinned at both ends when she saw him.

"Brother, you're here?" She says.

"Yeah! Tell me, what's going on?". Hansel looks at me While talking to his sister.

The second she wanted to respond. Mrs. Sara walks inside, "Muna you're here, come with me please, and leave your sister-in-law and your brother,". She takes out her hand for her. Immediately Muna takes it and she left with her mom.

They banged the door behind...

Abandoning Hansel and me alone. He walks to the bathroom afterward, meanwhile, I stayed on the bed waiting for him to finish

The second I heard the door opening, I picked up my towel and nightwear, running inside after he came out.

I locked the door from the inside.

What if Hansel decides to walk in forgetting that I was inside?

I walked under the running water.

It wet my hair, pouring down on the ground.

Afterward, I cleaned myself up and rode back into the room. Hansel had the bed demarcated with pillows at the center. I hung up my towel before going to sleep...

I turned off the light to sleep, but it came right back on. I did it the second time but someone else keeps on hitting the on button.

"Hansel, can't you please switch off the light". I said facing my back on him.

"No! Why should I sleep in darkness?, No, I won't let you turn off the light,". He says, fighting back.

Why should Hansel fight with me for everything?....

"Please, turn off the light, I can't sleep with the light on"... I responded.

I tried to reason with Hansel, however, he kept on being persistent about his decision.

"No! I won't,". He kept on chanting the same thing.

Suddenly I had this idea to let him be for now and after some time, when he falls deeply asleep, I can't finally switch off the light.

"Okay then, goodnight,". I said, Hansel however kept quiet.

Five minutes later, I pulled out my hands to hit the off button, and just then my hand was grabbed. I turned behind to face Hansel's angry gaze.

"Didn't you hear me?, I said do not turn off the light,". He said.

I pulled his hands away and said, "come on, I can't sleep with the light on, can you please listen to me,".

Hansel shook his head not agreeing...

He warned me not to temper with the light switch, taking his bed space again.

What's his issue? Like who sleeps with their light on?....

I pressed my head against the fluffy pillow and forced myself to sleep.

The next morning. I Didn't Know Hansel had left for the office, I only got to find out when his sister walked into the room to wake me up for breakfast.

I stepped in after getting dressed and right next to her were my parents seated at the table with them.

"Mom?, Dad, why are you both here?". I asked looking confused.

Mom takes her hand and it points at Mrs. Sara. She walks out of the kitchen and smiles as soon as our eyes met.

"Morning dear, how was your night?"

She asked. I was rather stunned to see my parents at home.

However when she noticed that she clarified that she called them to finally talk about what happened at the wedding.

Like what's there to talk about?..

After all, Hansel had told me the truth. What then is there to talk about?

The one I was asked to marry. After months of getting to know him, left me on the day of our wedding.

I don't want to think about this.

It hurts my heart, thinking about it.
