My husband told me he wanted to marry a second wife. Imagine! It wasnât as if I had no children for him, I had already given him two fine sons.
We were okay, living well, but he just woke up one morning and declared that one woman was no longer enough for him. According to him, he needed âanother woman.â
Now, my husband is the type who, once he makes a decision, nothing can move him to change it.
So, I said nothing.
The next day, he repeated it. He even announced that the introduction would be the following weekend and that I should prepare to welcome my co-wife with open arms.
Again, I didnât argue, I didnât complain. Why waste my energy? It was his decision.
But one thing was certain... I had my plans.
I let him go ahead with the introduction. I let him throw the traditional wedding in grand style, the kind of wedding that drains pockets and feeds gossipers.
Oh! I let him spend and spend, smiling all the while.
Then, the weekend he went for the white wedding, I quietly packed my bags, carried my two sons, drove off with my car, sold the house and everything in it, and returned all the documents to my fatherâs company.
Yes, you heard right, my fatherâs company, the very source of the wealth my husband had been flaunting.
Because letâs not forget; I was the one who made him rich. All that wealth wasnât his sweat, it was mine.
And now, he wanted to reward me by bringing home a second wife?
Oh no. I didnât need to shout, fight, or throw tantrums. I simply took everything that belonged to me and left. I left for another state.
If he wants to start afresh with his new wife, I was generous enough to give him that opportunity.
When he returned home and found the house was no longer his, he called me in panic to ask questions.
âOh honey,â I told him sweetly, âI just took what belongs to me so that you and your new wife can enjoy each other in peace.â
He almost cried on the phone. âYou know I donât have money right now. I spent everything on this wedding. You never told me you didnât want me to get married again! I spent literally everything because I thought you were comfortable with it! Now Iâm left with nothing. And itâs your fellow woman weâre talking about here... your fellow woman will suffer? Sheâs pregnant. Canât you at least have pity on her because of her condition?â
Pregnant? Ah! So, it didnât even start with the wedding. He had been cheating on me all along!
Because I said nothing, he assumed I was comfortable with having a co-wife?
I laughed and told him calmly, âThen please, start a new life with your pregnant wife. But know this, the easy life you once had with me? Youâll never see it again.â
I cut the call and relaxed. No need for long talk.
Me: do you think she did well
