We had just finished the wedding ceremony at the church and at the town hall and now there was only the evening left. There were many people especially on the side of Mr. Moab I felt sad and alone also the members of my family was little therefore they were not perceivable in the crowd I would have so much liked that Irma stood at my side in this day but she was not there. 4was sitting alone on the place that one had reserved to Moab and to me, him he chatted with his friends I only wanted one thing that this evening finishes quickly.
I could not forget what happened with the mother of Mr. Moab, apparently she was not aware of this marriage she showed me that she did not want me, and I understand how a son can plan to marry without the consent of his mother is absurd. I was so ashamed my God and my mother too but fortunately the tension has gone down but I know that this woman has not accepted me and that worries me a lot.
???: hey oh you are here
Me: yes uh who are you?
???: i feel offended so you don't know your husband's brother
Me: ah sorry actually I have not been introduced to any of his family members
??: that's strange isn't it, my name is Henry Sankara
Me: Nice to meet you Henry
Him: me as well my little sister-in-law
Me: ok
Him: Moab didn't talk about you to anyone at home, that's why mom was angry with you earlier
Me: I understood that and I'm really sorry for that I didn't know he had a family he never mentioned it
Him: No need to apologize, it's not your fault. Tell me Dina do you really know my brother?
Me: No, I won't say. But I didn't really have a choice about this marriage
Him: how?
Me: I won't say, but just tell your mother that I'm sorry.
Him: I will have all the time to know you, see you later
Me: Goodbye
I felt like crying what kind of wedding is this what did Moab do and what did daddy get me into from the start it's bad this day was bad
? you see that even your mother in law doesn't want you
Me: Irma I beg you not today I don't feel well it has not been a good day
She: oh that makes me happy at least I could avoid the shame of the century, so I thank you I do not stop replaying in loop the way she spoke to you and your face moreover at that moment too funny
Me: I beg you.....Irma not today I don't feel well, not strong enough to bear your insults please leave me.
She: oh you cry too bad, you shouldn't have accepted this marriage, it hasn't really started yet that you already shed tears boff
I didn't say anything more I couldn't hold it back I was crying and I wasn't about to stop I was hurting for everything that had happened
??: Dina are you crying?
Me: mom........mom.....what did dad get me into........I didn't want this marriage......and you told me.....you told me that maybe it was a chance for me......to have a husband....and maybe children later but mom on this day......on this day I feel nothing. ....just sorrow.....sadness...mom let's stop this....I want to go home......how can I be happy when....my beau doesn't agree with this marriage and Moab never mentioned her family.....and also the shame she inflicted on me in front of everyone
me in front of everyone
She: shut up you don't have to cry it's a good day for you today
Me: no....no I should have stood up to you, to daddy and to mister Moab's stupid desire.....now I'm the one crying and I'm the one being laughed at......if you leave me here I'll let myself die.....I don't want to live with him......I've tried to be strong....but I can't take it anymore
?: we are married and you will stay married to me for the rest of your life
Mom: it's the circumstances that make him talk that way
Me: no, I don't want to stay with you at all, I want a divorce if that's what you have to say...you are bad Mr. Moab and I will never forgive you for having inflicted me the shame of today
Him: It's a good thing I don't give a damn. Now let's go home
Me: I won't go with you. Mom: If you let me go with him I will never speak to you again
Mom: It won't matter because one day you'll thank me for doing this. Mr. Moab you can bring him
Me: I'm not kidding mom I don't want to go
Him: let's go
Me: I won't go with you I told you
Irma: pitiful
Him: you are my wife and I don't ask your opinion
He took me by the hand and pulled towards the exit
