"No smoking!!!"I said frowning at him on the dining table as he pulled out the lighter to light it.
"And who are you to tell me that"he said narrowing his eyes at me.
"I am your wife for crying out loud!!!"
"Since when!!"he asked sarcastically smirking
"Since I signed the freaking contract and the nikah book"
"Wifey,hmm"he dreamily said.
He moved from his sit coming closer to me,my heart beat increased and I became tensed suddenly.I know I am supposed to be rigid,strong and all but I am female people!!
He placed a finger on my cheek bringing it down slowly like a drawing.I was really getting nervous now.I was still wearing my hijab because I had promised to let only the one I truly love see my hair.he bent down to my eye level and my heart beat increased even more.
"Wifey"he said smirking.
I let out a sigh I didn't know I was holding.
"Am I allowed to do this"he said almost crashing his lips on mine but I immediately pushed him away.
"You're not allowed to" I said standing up.
"Then why call yourself my wife when I can't even touch you"
"It was a contract"I murmured
"and you freaking think you can change me!!"he laughed evily
"yes but you will have to help me"
"Then you have a long way to go,because I do what I want when I want to and no one"placing emphasis on the last statement"tells me what to do"

I walked into the room I was going to be sharing with my so called husband.
My so called husband was already sleeping so deeply and had occupied almost all the bed space. That even a child wouldn't sleep comfortably in the space he left so I took my blanket,changed into my night wear,used a scarf and left to sleep on the couch in the living room.
*******
I checked the clock on the wall and it was time for fajr[dawn prayer].I made wudu[ritual purification] but before praying I went to our room(sounds weird)to wake my husband for fajr.
I dragged his legs continuously trying to wake him up but my effort was futile because he wasn't answering me. Then I suddenly stopped when I saw him wake up.
He grabbed my arm,pushed me to the wall smirking.
"What the hell!!"he screamed
"We have to pray fajr"
"I am sorry sweetheart but no one tells me what to do"he said pinning me even harder on the wall".
I loosened his grip from my arm forcefully.I touched the spot and it was red.
"Don't take advantage of the situation"I said sounding serious
"I just want you out of my life"he screamed.
"I also want you out of my life because I deserve someone better and more reliable than you"
"Deserve better?!"he said letting out a laugh.
"You have to help me change you so we can both have our lives back"
"Really!!you're really so determined to change me!!just give up already before it's too late"
"It was a contract dearie.
