“Who are you?.” She asked peeping out. The woman pushed her inside with her daughter and clapped her hands in exclamation looking around every where.

“You better keep shut! You this h@rlot and foo olll.”
“ What do you mean?, please…. Please get out of my house this minute!.” She vented at her.
“Whuch house (looking around) you mean my husband house??
“You must be the fool! You came to someone house and started saying gibberish, whose husband are you talking about? Which husband??.” She asked angrily.
She wanted to push the woman to go out but she wasn’t having strength to do so as she breath so fast. The woman pushed her and she fell down.
“Do you think I’m here to play with you (carrying her child on the chair) oh’ because I have been talking nicely with you prostituted, Prostituted!!!!! Husband snatcher!

My husband name is Tony and I have been hearing about someone living in my husband house that he lied to me not to have completed. So, you he brought you here after completing it without telling me his wife.
“I don’t …”
A slap landed on Rihannat face multiple times.
“You are a thi*ef, leave my husband alone! I have a child for him, leave him alone for me.”
“My boyfriend name is not tony but Henry madam.”
“Henry is his middle name. He has been deceiving you all along. You’re the reason he doesn’t come home all the time. Useless girl! You will not go out and look for your own husband. Instead it’s someone else husband that will be entering your eyes. Ashawooooo.”
Rihannat struggles with her to fight back but her strength are getting weaker.
“Your said husband have to come before I can believe you madam. You should thank your creator that you came at the time I’m not feeling well if not I would have deal with you.” She shouted breathing heavily.
The door opened and Henry entered seeing his wife and Rihannat fighting. He ran to their midst to separate them.
“Sweetheart stop all these!.” He shouted as Rihannat started crying.
“Did you just called her sweetheart Henry? Who is she?.”
“She is exactly what you think.” He answered looking at his wife who’s Ready to explode him if he doesn’t do the needful.
“So, this is where you have been spending your money on daddy Beatrice, ehn’ tell me? This is why you have been refusing to come home. Is this your Abuja program? (She laughed walking around Rihannat who’s standing like a fool) This thing here is your Abuja right?.”
“Sweetheart calm…”
“eh’ eh! Don’t sweetheart me at all please! So you have completed this house, infact to the fullest sef. Ha! Men! Mennnnnnn I fear you just like you fear women. What else do you want me to do as a wife. What does this thing has that I don’t have. Is it about beauty or what? I can’t believe this Tony.” She sat on the chair crying.
“Will you get out of my house!.” He shouted at Rihannat angrily.
“Like…”
“I said get outtttttt!.” He answered going inside the room Rihannat kept her belongings and throw some of her clothes and bags at her. He told her to packed them inside the bag and leave immediately.
“See the way I’m dressed Henry.” She said crying.
“You should even be happy I didn’t disgrace you outside. If not, I would have tore everything you are wearing. Pack your toothpick leg and leave my husband house husband snatcher woooooo!.
“Sweetheart please it’s enough! At least I’m sending her away.”
She jumped at her husband shouting at him for what he did, and Rihannat hurriedly packed her cloth in the bag to leave. When she gets to the door, the wife ran to meet her and snatched her phone from her hand asking her to delete her husband phone number from her phone. She told the wife the name she used in saving her husband name. And immediately the woman deleted it from Rihannat phone and hit the phone to her face. It fell to the floor and scatterd.
“See what you have done madam.” She said and the woman turned to meet her in annoyance again until her husband stopped her.
“It is okay! (To his wife) Rihannat leave this minute.” He said ordering her out if his house.
“How about the money you promised to give me?.” Rihannat asked at the entrance.
“Ha! Egbami o (help me o) you still want to collect money from my husband.” The woman said and snatched her hands away from her husband looking around for what she can use to hit Rihannat.
“You shouldn’t expect more from me Rihannat I have given you enough! And moreover you’re just here for enjoyment and nothing more.” Henry said.
Immediately Rihannat saw his wife holding a glass cup, she knew she is done for. She opened the door immediately and dashed out running outside the house with her bag on her chest. She even forgot to wear slippers. Her hair looked tattered, her cloth torn, her nose and lips got injured. She went to a corner behind a mosque building and wear another cloth on the one that She is wearing. She wasn’t feeling okay as she walked down the street. She opened her purse and felt relaxed that she has some money and then she entered a taxi that carried her alone to her father house. Written by faith stories.
Arriving at her house, she came down hurriedly from being seen by people around their vicinity. She entered immediately because their entrance door is always open. The first person that saw her is Josiah. He was laying on the sitting room chair when he heard the loud sound of the door .
“Rihannat!.” He called but she didn’t answer as she ran towards her mother room shivering.
“I said you shouldn’t bother me this man!.” Faridah shouted thinking it’s Josiah.
“Mother, open the door!.” She shouted exhaustedly.
Faridah jumped up immediately at the hearing of her daughter voice.
“Rihannat? Come inside! Come inside!! What happened to you? Why is your nose bleeding? Who did this to you?.”
Rihannat bursted into tears like a widow woman rolling on the floor. Her mother tried to hold her but she kept crying not wanting to answer her.
“See how you’re breathing faridah!. Heh! Lailah inlah Allahu Muhammadurosunulahi (God have mercy on me) talk to me na.
Rihannat hand began to shake, all her body started turning white.
“Ha! Yeh! What is this one again (crying) and I can’t even call this one to come and help me.
Faridah told her to stand up so as to take her to the hospital . Rihannat managed and walked clumsy by the help of her mother as they made their way out. Josiah saw them at the entrance and ask what is going on but they ignored him as they left. Written by faith stories
On getting to the hospital, she was admitted immediately because the doctor told her she doesn’t have blood in her body. Within 7 hours she has used seven pant of blood and still it wasn’t enough.
“We need more blood madam. And we don’t have blood anymore in our hospital, you have to bring more money to get her more blood because as she’s ehn’ I don’t even know what to say.
“What do you mean doctor?.”
.
“This is really strange to me. Seven pant of blood and it still looks as if she hasn’t taken anyone at all.”
Faridah jumped up in fear.
“What should I do now doctor?.” She asked.
“you need to bring 50 thousand Naira to get like 3 to 4 blood. Not like it will reach OOO but it’s just to try it if will be enough. Or better still if you can bring the person you said can donate blood for her. Then no problem. We can still manage it with the one we will be buying. So, do fast about it madam.” The doctor said and she left his office immediately.
“,Where will I see 50 thousand again now. I have used all the money in her account, and as for me ha! I don’t have any penny ooo (thinking) who should I go to for help and donations of blood now? Where did Rihannat go and encounter this kind of thing. Ha! Faridah see how you train your daughter.”
