Returning back to my house I was full of vitality and joy, the medicine my mother gave me is said to be effective and I just couldnât wait to start using it. I didnât meet my husband at home when I arrived because he has called me that he is going for a business trip for two weeks. I felt it might be because he doesnât want to stay at home because of my friend. Anytime I called him and asked about how he was coping with Sewa , he will always shunned me that I shouldnât ask him because he doesnât sleep at home because I was not around.
âHow is your mom?.
âShe is doing well and she sent her warm regards as well.â I lied, because I dare not tell my mother that I allowed my friend live under my roof.
âJust one week that that you left, just see how beautiful you look. You have eating all your mother delicious meals.â Sewa said in a teasing manner.
âIf I donât eat it, who else?.â I answered back flaunting my hands.
âWhy your husband nor like to stay for house?.â She asked and I laughed.
âWhat do you expect when Iâm not around. He will not want to stay na.
âThe thing tire me ooo infact I was even feeling insecure at some point maybe I was inconvenient to him.
âI donât think so and moreover my husband is the type of man that doesnât like being around stranger whenever Iâm not around.
âOhhh I see.â She rolled her eyes đ. âWell, he shouldnât have done that at least I have known him for a very long time. So when will he come back?.
âNext week.
âNo wahala, God go Sha settle the fight between me and Peter.â She said laughing.
âI am very sure that soon he will let go off the past.
âI have prepared you food ooo come and eat.

As times goes on I didnât bother about asking when she would move out because of her companion. One evening my husband returned home and bought our usual shawarma and he also get pizza for Sewa. I was surprised because ever since I have been telling him to at least balance the equation by buying pizza for me my friend and he has been insisting on not buying.
âYou finally buy pizza for Sewa.â I said, tickling him.
âOhh please leave me is that not what you wanted?.
âI love you honey.â I hugged him from behind and Sewa came out to the sitting room.
âYou are welcome.â She greeted.
She is wearing bumber short with a transparent armless. I had to cover my husband face and walked him out of the sitting room.
âYou never see anything.â Sewa said to herself and chuckled looking at Temmy and her husband as they walked inside.
âI am sorry I will go and talk to her for wearing such revealing cloth.â I said to my husband who doesnât seems to find it serious.
âWhat is in what sheâs wearing? Is this her first time of wearing it?. He asked sitting on the bed.
âYou mean you didnât see anything wrong in what she wears??.
âWhat do you want me to say? Is she not your friend? Then go talk to her.
âWhy doing as if you are not concerned about her indecent dress all of a sudden honey, you that complain each time she wears such cloth.
âSo do you want me to continue talking to an adult in my house as if she doesnât know what to do, no tell me darling? Are you not her friend? Canât you talk to her? I have heard enough of complaining all about this all the time. If you canât control your friend then who am I to do so.
âReally??.â I asked looking at him surprisingly.
âOf course! And before you go.â He gave me her pizza đ. âyou can give her this.
âI should give her??.
âAre you expecting me to also go and give her??.â He asked with his eyes widely opened.
âAlright fine.â
I left the room and return back to the sitting room where Sewa is busy concentrating in what she was watching.
âSewa take.
I handed the pizza to her and stood in her front.
âWhere did you get it from?.â She asked excitedly.
âMy husband bought it for you.
âYour husband?.â She asked surprisingly looking at the entrance to our room. âWhy?.
âDidnât you say you only like pizza?.
âEhn, I said so butâŠ.ha!.â She looked at it again.
âNever mind. I have something to tell you about.” I said.
âAnd what is that?.â She sat upright adjusting her falling armless.
âPlease I donât want us to have any qualms in the house.
âWhy did you say so? Have I offended you?.
âYou havenât and I donât want you to.
âSo what happened?.â She asked looking focused.
âMy husband has complained severally about how you dressed in the house countless times especially when heâs around and I thought you have understood for not dressing in such way again until you started this night. Why Sewa?.
âOhhh my dressing? Iâm really sorry Temmy. It was because of the heat that makes me wear the armless top.
âAnd how about the short knicker youâre wearing? And is the AC not on?
âI am sorry, let me go and change it.
She stands up and ran inside to change, I didnât expect her to wear such even if sheâs not told. My husband entered the sitting room a minute later and asked me to come inside. I stood up and go after him.
âWhat is it honey?. I asked, standing behind the closing door.
âWhy will you tell her to go change?.
âI donât understand you.â I asked confusingly.
He came towards me and grab my neck and I was literally shocked like so shocked.
âI told you to leave her alone you fo.ol!.
He throws me on the floor angrily.
âI donât understand honey? Did you just hurt me because of my friend? Like I really donât understand!.
âIf you ever allowed her do things on your own wish from now henceforth, you will have yourself to blame.â He shouted at me.
I sat on the floor speechlessly, looking at him unbelievable. He took his cloth and left the room angrily. My eyes couldnât believe what I just encountered like my husband talked to me in such manner to the extent of walking out on me aggressively because of my friend. âDid she Report me to him?.â I imagine and get up faster to follow him.
I followed him and didnât know where he had gone, so I went to Sewa room and knocked on her door. She opened and looked at me as if she didnât know what she has done.
âWhat nonsense did you just do Sewa??.
“How??” She answered with both hands on her waist.
