HER POSSESSIVE HUSBAND

I stared into the mirror hung on the toilet wall as I brushed my teeth, I wasn't feeling so good this morning but I felt it was probably the stress I had gone through the day before. I felt nauseated and a slight headache too. I thought about the good news I had received yesterday.

"Are you really serious about the wedding" I asked excitedly.

"Yes I am!! Would I lie about a thing like that" Salma said.

"So, the wedding is this weekend" Salma informed

"Wow, that's early. That's in like 3 days from now"

"Yeah, there was no point in waiting and since it's just going to be a small garden wedding with close families. We decided to make it earlier" Salma explained.

"That's great, is there anything I can help with though. I would love to help" I said

"You can, there is a lot to do. I won't refuse free help" Salma said

"Alright then, I should be there tomorrow" I informed before she ended the call.

I opened my wardrobe to pick out a cloth to wear to Salma's place. After several minutes of picking out different clothes. I finally made a decision. I picked out a gown and wore it.

I got down the stairs and was about to open the door to leave the house when I realized it was locked. It was never locked especially since people were inside. I realized it was locked with a key. "Ayo" I called out

"Yes ma" She answered as she walked up to me.

"Where is the key to this door and why is it even locked" I asked

"The key isn't with me ma" she answered.

"So, who is it with then" I asked

"Oga(Ridwan) took it with him when he was going" She said and then I figured Ridwan had actually locked me inside the house.

"What!!"I exclaimed then proceeded to where I had dropped my phone on the table to call him. I scrolled through my phone to dial is number then I realized my phone had been tampered with. The sim card in my phone was a new one with just Ridwan, my mum and sisters number on it. I immediately dialled his number then he picked on the second ring.

"Hey" he said

"Why would you lock me inside the house, what kind of behaviour is this. Like I am a prisoner, in my own home" I said angrily.

"Yeah, I locked the door and no one is saying you are a prisoner. Somethings just have to be done to make sure everyone is safe and okay" he explained.

"What does that even mean, there is no excuse for this" I said

"You really should just sit at home and rest. No need going about outside"

"And what did you do to my phone and where is my sim card" I asked

"I changed your sim card and since the important numbers you need are there, you really don't need any other number" he said and I became even more furious. What the hell was going on. I really couldn't wrap my head around it all and before Ridwan could say another word, I ended the call.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
