Yamin couldn't believe how things had escalated. He knew his wife, Tamma, was strong-headed, but he had never intended for their situation to reach this point. Now, it seemed she was no longer his wife, and he needed to remarry her if he wanted her back. Yamin was aware that Tamma would give him a hard time if she were to return, so he needed to make his moves before it was too late.
His initial intention had been to punish her slightly, not to let her go. However, seeing her at her parents' house had gotten him carried away, and now she had left him. Tamma returned to her parents' house, telling them she had come for a vacation. She wasn't ready to disclose the truth about her marriage, especially considering her father's current health issues. He had been sick for a while, and Tamma didn't want to worsen the situation.
Her mother, however, knew her daughter well enough to sense that something was amiss. She gave Tamma time to open up, and her suspicions were confirmed when Tami visited the house the next day, looking unusual and apologizing for something he wasn't even aware of. Yamin realized that Tamma's parents were unaware of the divorce and was surprised by this. He decided to play along, not wanting to reveal the truth.
Yamin and Tamma had a conversation later on. "I'm sorry it took me so long to realize your waiting period had ended," Yamin said. Tamma replied, "Well, now you do. Why are you here?" Yamin explained, "Tamma, I didn't know how we got here. We used to love each other so much, and we still do, but we're no longer compatible. And now, you're a single woman, and I'm free too." Tamma responded, "To be honest, I don't want to be free from you. I want to take you back. You know that's not possible, Yamin." Yamin pleaded, "It is. I just need to legalize our marriage again." Tamma, however, was resolute. "Well, as much as that sounds tempting, there's someone I'm interested in now."
Yamin was shocked to hear his wife express interest in someone else. "Tamma, since when did you have eyes for someone other than me?" he asked. Tamma replied, "I didn't, but I remembered my secondary school boyfriend. He wanted me so much back then, but I looked down on him. Now, he's successful, and I'm sure he doesn't mind that I'm divorced. Besides, I have no child, which makes it even easier." Yamin was taken aback by Tamma's words. "Tamma, look at me. I'm not leaving you for any man. What I did was a mistake, never to be repeated."
Tamma, however, was unmoved. "Yamin, I'm done talking to you. I'll come by the house tomorrow to collect my belongings." Yamin was left speechless, unsure of how to respond. "I wish you all the best," Tamma said, before turning to leave. Yamin was stunned, unable to comprehend what was happening. "What does she even mean by that?" he thought to himself. "It's not over. She's just angry. I'll let her calm down before I try again."
The next day, Yamin went to the office, returning home in the evening to find that all of Tamma's belongings were gone. "What the hell is this?" he exclaimed. Tamma had taken all her kitchen utensils and appliances, including the gas cooker, refrigerator, and microwave. She had cleared out the kitchen, leaving nothing behind. Yamin went to her bedroom and found her closet empty. "What's wrong with this woman?" he thought. "We've only been divorced for three months. Why would she do this?"
Yamin was furious and decided to let her go. "I won't bring her back to my house with this attitude," he thought. He called his friend Jibrin and told him what had happened. Jibrin laughed at him. "You know I told you your wife is a good but dangerous woman. I told you not to play with her, but you didn't listen. Look, Yamin, you're done with this marriage, and I think you've moved on. You don't want her anymore. She can take anything in the house if that will make her feel better, but you won't bring her back anymore."
Jibrin cautioned Yamin
