"You can't be serious! the man is coming to take you today and he is the only one to decide if you are to go school or not!" He thundered living Deborah gazing at him in surprise. Like what man? "I don't understand what man are you talking about?" Deborah asked being so confused, she remembered being asked if she is ready and she said yes they never told to her anything about any man as far as she can remember. And she could have believed that it was the reason why they asked her if she's ready and she foolishly said yes but her auntie has already explained everything to her and told her to say yes and she simply said yes. "What do you mean you don't understand what I am talking about...? I thought you said were ready yesterday?" he asked and she shrugged her shoulders. "Of course I said yes but not about any man" Deborah replied. "Then why the hell did you say that you are ready? besides I thought your auntie said that she has explained everything to you?" He asked confusedly as he sits up on the couch. "How come you did not know that we are talking about a man? and why did you even say yes when you know that you don't know what I am talking about why did you not ask me?" He added. "Of course that is exactly why I said yes because she explained everything for me but she did not mention anything concerning a man to me so I don't understand what you are talking about" Deborah responded as the both of them was pressed more into confusion. None of them is understanding each other, he was thinking if his wife truly did explained to Deborah but didn't mention a man to her. Then what exactly did he explained to her because there's no how he is going to avoid the man while explaining to her, to cut it short this is a man she's getting married to by contract and he has already signed it so how the hell did she explain it to her without mentioning that. He remembered personally warning her to explain very well to Deborah and allow her to think about it personally, although this was her idea and never his. "I don't understand you Deborah, are you sure you are not confusing yourself? you said my wife very well explained everything to you?" He asked and Deborah nodded. "Yes of course she did" Deborah curiously replied widening her hand sideways. "And she didn't mention anything concerning a man who was ready to pay your bride price?" He said and Deborah immediately responded in shock hearing that. "Pay my bride price?" she exclaimed in shock as the man widened his eyes. "You mean she didn't talk anything about marriage with you?" He added. "Of course she did not tell me anything like that! that's so horrible of course I will never say that I am ready if that was what she told me!" Deborah replied with seriousness in her facial expression. "Then what exactly did she tell you because I wonder what she talked to you about then if she didn't tell you about this" He said in annoyance as he swallowed his saliva, he is almost sweating. "This was what I told her, I personally told her to talk to you to know if you are ready and tell you that marriage isn't something one can just dive into and beside this is a contract marriage, and you are marrying him, forever that is what is in that contract" He added. "She was the one that told me about your interest in getting married and I asked her to talk to you very well about it before we can proceed" He concluded. "No! no! how could she have done such a thing! I am here and I will totally say that we have never discover ed anything like that since I stepped into this house" Deborah said waving her head in dis belief. "I never told her that I am ready for marriage she only told me that when you comes back you will ask me if I am ready and when you ask me that question I should simply tell you yes and me being ready is that you start taking me out everyday for dinner that was all she told me" She explained more better. "Are you really sure about this? because I have already signed the paper in talk" he said as Deborah started trembling, fear consumed her because she doesn't know what her auntie has planned against her this time around. The worst part of it is that she doesn't even know the man she's getting married to, she obviously have not seen him before, not knowing how brutal and anything about his life. "You did what...?" she asked and she removed her school bag from her back and fling it away as she started sweating or of a sudden. "No! no! no! definitely something has to be done about this because I am not ready I don't even know the man you are talking about I don't even know anything about him so it is a capital No for me!" Deborah said as tears welled up her eyes. "There is definitely nothing that can be done about this, I told you that this is a contract and I have signed it already! how can you be foolishly deceived in that manner! where's your auntie? has she left to work?" He asked with an angered voice. "No, I believe that she is still inside her room!" Deborah said shaking in fear as tears was already dropping down from her eyes because she understand that her journey could be very dangerous her auntie knows very well what she was doing. "Cherry!!! Cherry!!!" he screamed with a very angry and loud voice. "What!?" Cherry's voice sounded from her room, she of course knows exactly why they are calling her. "Gosh... Maryam warned me about this and I didn't listen to her! she told me to be very careful with this lady, how can someone who was so wicked change all of a sudden and I foolishly fell for it? how could I have been so stupid?" Deborah blamed herself shaking so hard. She couldn't believe how she was deceived just in a day, from someone who has been so brutal to her, it wasn't even hard for her auntie to manipulate her it was so easy and she fell for it woefully. "I don't understand why you are screaming my name like that at this early morning? is there a problem?" Cherry asked as she steps out of her room and Deborah's heart raced even the more immediately she stepped into the sitting room. That was so usual, she is always being scared whenever she set her eyes on her auntie because of how wicked she has been to her. So while she made that statement her husband didn't say anything to her but was angrily looking at her. "What's it? you called me out, and you Deborah where do you think you are going? just get back to your room and pull those clothes off your body, your days for school has stopped, you know nothing so it is better you get married" Cherry boldly said to her and her words cut through the air like a knife.
