UNFRIENDLY FRIEND CHAPTER THREE
******💔.
"Genuine feelings don't easily fade away". My husband said and walked out of the room.
I was broken. My heart couldn't carry that statement. This is someone I stayed faithful to all through his days abroad. I was there for him when he had nothing. I got ridiculed and mocked by friends and course mates who never thought he would amount to anything in life. I would watch my friends get spoiled by their boyfriends then while I was the one doing the spending in my relationship.
I trusted the process. I knew he would be great. I saw his potentials and invested on him.
"I don't deserve this".
Broken and weak, I sat sorrowfully on the tiled floor.
"What next oh Lord? What should I do now? I was only trying to help my very good friend. Was that a bad thing to do?". I cried out loud.
I cried till I fell asleep on the cold floor.
When I woke up, I went downstairs to prepare dinner. To my greatest surprise, my husband and Kate were already having dinner. Kate prepared jollof rice in my kitchen for my husband.
"Interesting! You now cook for my husband". I said sarcastically.
They both continued eating without minding me.
"Am I invisible or so something?". I asked.
"If you are hungry, enter the kitchen and dish food for yourself and stop throwing tantrums". My husband said.
Kate just sat there tearing the chicken with her teeth whilst having a swell time.
Angrily, I poured Kate's plate of rice on the floor.
"I can't take this nonsense! She must leave". I shouted.
The next thing I received was a heavy slap on my face. Yes! My husband slãpped me. That was the first time my husband would hit me.
I was dumbfounded.
"Your unruly behavior is getting out of hand! I won't take it". My husband screamed at me.
My vision was already blurry because tears has already filled my eyes.
"Wow". I exclaimed.
I went into the room and started packing my clothes.
When I was done packing, I took them downstairs.
My husband was in the kitchen washing plates. Something he has never done since we got married. I didn't even employ house helps because I wanted to do everything myself because my husband loves domesticated and industrious women.
I wept again.
I met Kate well seated and relaxed in the seating room.
"Are you happy now?". I asked her.
"Nobody is sending you out of the house. Stop acting like a kid. There's nothing going on between your husband and I". Kate said.
"Interesting! There's nothing going on but he has already chosen you over me". I said.
"Well, you know I've always being his first choice". Kate said with her legs crossed.
"I wish you both all the best". I said.
I left the house afterwards. I cried till I got to my parents house.
I couldn't tell my parents what was happening in my marriage. How do I explain to them that my marriage that isn't up to five months has crashed or it's at the verge of crashing?
I lied to them that I came to spend some time with them.
I kept waiting for my husband's call. I would refresh my WhatsApp after every 2mins to see if my husband has sent me a message. I even uploaded a meme on my status to see my husband would view it and reply.
I waited and waited. I was hoping my husband would call to apologize to me and beg me to come back home.
My husband never called 😭

THE UNFRIENDLY FRIEND CHAPTER ONE
******
Kate and I are best of friends. Though really close, we have different tastes in men. Kate is one all these showbiz girls. She love her men rich, tall dark and handsome. If you are not speaking money, don't speak love to Kate.
We were in 200l when Stanley started showing interest in Kate. He is our course mate and also our reading partner. Along the line, he started developing feelings for Kate but Kate wasn't ready to hear any of it because the guy was broke and doesn't really dress well.
I tried my best to make her fall for him but she warned me to mind my business and that if I like him that much for her, I should go ahead and date him.
This affected our friendship with Stanley. We stopped studying together.
When we were in 400l, I was having issues with a particular course and to make matter worse, I recently broke up with my ex then. I was really overwhelmed. I had no choice than to plead with Stanley to help explain that course well for me.
That was how my friendship with Stanley got rekindled. He was there when I needed him the most. We started talking more often and spent most of the day together.
Well, we developed feelings for each other and started dating. When Kate heard I was dating Stanley, she mocked me like never before. At a point, I even considered breaking up with him because of the constant mockery I got from Kate.
The love I had for him was greater than the mockery I got, so our love prevailed.
After NYSC, Stanley got a scholarship to study abroad for his masters. He promised to come back for me. Yet again, Kate mocked me and told me I will grow old while waiting for him.
A year later, Kate got married to a big boy. He is wealthy and very generous. He really spoilt her silly with money. I was happy for my friend. She finally got to marry the man of her dreams.
Four years later, Stanley returned back to Nigeria and established himself. Our love grew and he proposed to me.
I finally married the love of my life. My best friend and my confidant.
The wedding ceremony was the hottest topic of discussion in town. It was a luxurious and a glamorous ceremony. Everyone who attended the occasion were left stunned.
I finally moved in with my man. A four bedrooms detached duplex. You know those kind of houses you only get to see in movies.
My life has started falling into place.
Kate's husband got arraigned by EFCC for internet fraud. All their assets and money was confiscated.
I was the only option Kate had left so told her to move in with my husband and I till she's able stand on her feet. At first, Stanley was against it but he later gave in after so much persuasion.
I thought I was being a good friend to Kate not knowing that jealousy and envy has eaten deep into her system....7
