CHAPTER 18
As soon as Ruth finished taking her supper, Martin initiated the rule that he would always carry her to their matrimonial room. He helped her loosen her clothes and handed over the night gown to her.
He helped her to put the gown on and finally changed into his too. He locked the matrimonial room and went straight to his bed. He signalled Ruth to come and sleep too who seemed scared of him.
What was she even thinking?
Martin had never done anything to harm her?
He had always respected her in the marriage.
" You chest feels warm love. I can't wait to..." Ruth was suddenly silent.
This she said as she slept on top of Martin. Her heart keot beating faster since she was still scared if this. She never though that such kind of a thing would happen.
" Thanks love. Do you want me to remove my gown? Maybe sleeping on my naked chest will make you feel more at ease. You should always remember that I do love you love. I would do anything for you. I feel so tired today. I know you are surprised since I look strong and my wounds gave not yet healed. This is something that is always expected when someone is from a real family such as mine. I know that you do not understand this kind of things love. This kind of things happen everyday" said Martin smiling.
Maybe he was just too sleepy.
Everything he said did not really make any sense as they all sounded unrealistic.
Maybe he just missed his ex -,wife.
No not really .
He could not miss a wife who cheated on him and got a child..
He often described her as an hypocrite who could not be able to stand the truth of her life.
" Please wake me up tomorrow Love. I am a bit nervous and I might wake up later than expected. I am looking forward to see how much I shall perform tomorrow. I just hope that I will not dissapoint all your achievements" said Ruth smiling.
Martin wondered the kind of achievement that Ruth was really talking about.
Did it have something to do with the marriage?
" Our achievement love. Everybody does what they think is best for their families and I am deeply glad for all your efforts. Nobody had good thoughts such as you Love. Take good care of yourself tomorrow. My driver will have to take you to school. I will be having a meeting with the chief of the town. I wish you so much luck love. That is why I have prepared for an evening party meal where all the servants and people at the closer gates will be welcomed to celebrate your victory. You are allowed to invite your family too. I know that your sisters deeply miss you" said Martin as he caressed Ruth on his cheeks.
" Indeed love and I deeply miss them too. I miss my dolls too. Can I sleep with a few of them? No, of course I am just joking love. I know of how much you hate dolls" said Ruth as she pinched Martin's nose.
It really amazed Martin since he did not expect that. Before they could exchange words more, they heard a knock at the door.
Who was this again?
Martin went to open the door and was surprised to see that it was Purist.
" Can I sleep with the both of you?" Asked Purist who was already having nightmares.
" Sure! Just don't kick us with your legs in the middle of the night. It will really hurt me if you do so" said Martin jokingly.
That was a calm night with lots of destruction.
MARRIED AT SIXTEEN.
