Will this marriage last? (ii)
Hello Friends, thanks for reading the Part one, but if you haven't read it here is the link : will this marriage last? ( part1)
Now, let's continue.
PART 2
Jane ran out Samuel's present with tears on her face, and rushed to meet Ngozi her chief bride's maid. It won't make sense if people see her crying on her wedding day, so she held tears to herself, and cleaned her face, but as got to Ngozi, she observed she had cried.
Ngozi drew her closer to herself, and asked her " Jane, what has happened to you? Why would you cry on your weeding day? "
Jane responded;
" I have to cancel this marriage now before all our guests go, thank God the reception has not ended, i will go to the podium, collect the microphone and tell everybody I'm no longer interested in this marriage, i am no more doing".
When Ngozi heard this, she started begging her not to do so, "how will you cancel your marriage now, how will it sound to the public that you wedded today and called off the marriage today even while the guests are still around!"
Though you haven't told me what actually happened between you and your hubby, but Common! it won't make sense. See, every marriage has its own challenges, and ups and downs. All will be fine my friend.
Your marital journey just started, this little misunderstanding between you and your husband is what we can easily settle. so wipe away your tears, the MC is already calling for the couple's dance. Let's go to the podium so that you can dance with your husband, Ngozi said.
On getting to the podium, Jane was unhappy and sad, but pretended like all has been fine, and she started dancing with her husband who just slapped her. But you see Samuel the husband, he didn't even care or show any string of conscience, he danced like he never did anything wrong by slapping his wife.
It was at this point, Jane began to wonder the kind of marriage she was entering.
Many thoughts came to Jane's mind, she even thought of running away on the wedding night, but how will it be? This might bring her public disgrace, and might have her name all over the newspapers and social media that "Jane oh, she just married today and we can't find her again oh". So she changed her mind, and deleted such thought.
When the wedding ended, they drove to the Hotel, Jane took Ngozi along and booked her a room.
As they were in the hotel room, Jane first didn't say any word to Samuel her husband, she didn't even join him in the bed. Later on, she called him "Samuel, don't you know what you did was wrong by slapping me? Have you forgotten that I'm your wife and that we just wedded? Now, apologise, and tell me you are sorry".
Samuel then replied;
" I can say sorry on every other matters, but on this, i can't say sorry, because how would open your eyes and allow your ex to hug you chest to chest in my presence".
As he refused to say sorry, Jane went to sleep on the 3 seaters sofa. In the midnight around 12:30am, he came and join her there. His facial expression showed it that he wanted sex. As he was pulling off his trouser, Jane asked him, "what do you want to do?", He replied " to play love with you my wife now!! You want to make love with the woman you slapped and refused to say sorry to, that is not possible, Jane replied him.
He began to touch her romantically, but she threw away his hands from her body. When Samuel saw Jane wasn't ready to give him what he wanted, he attempted to rape her, as he was struggling with her, Jane began to shout at the top of her voice " Help! Help!! Help!!! Who is around, help me please!!!!!!"
Her shout brought Ngozi and the Hotel Staff to the door step, but they couldn't enter because the door was locked.
From outside they were hearing as Samuel was giving blows to his wife Jane and saying it audibly; "you fool, you're denying me of my Marital right"
They forced the door open and rescue Jane from his hand. They could not understand, they were surprised ' a just wedded couple fighting like this on their wedding day?!, This serious, they said".
Ngozi took her to her room to secure her there, and went back to meet Samuel to plead with him, after some time she came back.
Jane is in serious trouble now, she never knew that was the kind of husband she married.
The marriage is just a day old, and her husband has beaten her twice. What will happen next?
........To be continued.

I might sound wicked after saying this but I don't care, I did not have sorry feelings for jane at all, she should even be beaten so well cos she must have noticed the type of husband she is going to marry yet she went ahead with marriage. So many women have died because of this and she must have heard of stories like that so why get herself into it. The man is a very useless and wicked human for doing that.
