Jumah Mubarak ❤
Heela bade aunty rahana good bye and went back inside when her car was out of sight.
Salim sat on his bed thinking of how aunty rahana has been close with heela, it's quite disturbing to him.
When aunty rahana came over she barely talk to him, they don't talk like old times. The nerve of that girl, he huffed.
He then remembered what happened this morning
🌄 🌄
His thought was interrupted by a knock on the door
Come in!
Heela entered the room, talking of the devil, salim though
Good morning, she greeted
Morning, he replied curtly
What did you want
I came to call you down for breakfast
I'm not hungry, he said as he picked his phone up and begin typing, only God knows what.
Ok, I will go and inform aunty you said you are not hungry
She turn and started going
'I willl be down in a munite ' he said
Heela smirk.
He came down and met aunty rahana at the dinning table, he greeted and she answered with a 'morning '.
Normally he will say something like "kiddo, how was your night, hope you slept like a baby that you are"she didn't say anything like that, even when salim hate it when she use to say it.
He just sat eating his food silently like a complete stranger.
He finish eating and stood up to go when aunty rahana call him, thinking she finally want to talk to him. She said "Hey kiddo, learn how to thank your wife when she cook for you, ok?
She spoke in heela's favor again.
Remembering about it, he felt like strangling her.
Heela
Its now a month since I got married, nothing change except the fact that salim now eat my food. I know it is not a big deal but at least it's an achievement.
Today is sunday and ya salim is in his study room working and I am here bored, jawahir had been busy lately with work, talking about work I will start looking for one very soon,I willl jusy wait for few more weeks, i'm sure mummy will complain, that's too early for me to start working blah blah blah.
I decide to go to Abba's house, I am dressed but I still need to ask for ya salim permission.
I said my salaam and entered, of course after he told me to.
I ask him if I can go to Abba house and he said I can go without even raising his head up.
I thanked him and was about to go when I realized my car is not here .
Hmm, what about car?
You can ask the driver to take you, the key is ontop the bedside drawer in my room.
'Thank you 'I said, he didn't even reply not that I was expecting any though.
🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃
When I reached the gate, the gate man ask who I was looking for, I told him I want to see Alhaji jafar,he is my father in-law.
Sorry I no know say na you be small oga wife.
No problem, I replied. He opened the gate for me and I entered.
I rang the doorbell and it was a lady that opened the door for me, she should be in late forty
Good afternoon ma, I greeted
Afternoon,how are you my dear
I'm fine, I was about to ask of daddy when I sighted aunty rahana coming down from the stairs.
Wifey!
I miss you dear, she said as we hugged each other
I missed you more I reply.
Where is abba?
I think he should be in the sitting room upstairs let me take you to him.
Okay.
Have I ever tell you how rich they are, they are living in a mansion if I might say, not that our house, I mean salim and I house is any less. After all they are the jafar's.
Aunty rahana pushed the door opened when we heard the voice say come in.
Abba was sitting there with few files in his hands and a glass of juice by his side.
I squat and greet him, he answered my greetings with a smile .
My dear stand up, how are you doing
'Alhamdulilah, I'm fine abba'i replied standing up
Mashallah my daughter, that's good.
I will take her along now ya jafar aunty rahana said signaling for me to come with her
'I will see you later my dear '
'Ok abba ' I replied and follow her out of the room.
Sometimes I do forget abba is aunty rahana brother, yoi will mistake them for father and daughter and not to talk of the resemblance too.
We entered her room and I made myself comfortable on the bed while she sat next to me.
So, tell me how are things with salim, any improvement? She said wiggling her eyelashes.
Well, nothing much, but at least he now eat food at home and we say few hellos.
That's an achievement, I know you can do it, after all " a journey of a thousand miles start with a single step "we are getting there, enough about salim, let's talk about you.
That is how we gisted the whole day, only stop to pray and eat food that's it. I wonder if salim has eaten though, I cooked lunch for him and kept it in the warmer.
When are you going it is almost time for maghrib, aunty rahana said
I put hand on my chest dramatically and said 'ouch! You just break my heart, so you don't even want me here, i'm hurt '
Stop being overdramatic, I don't want your husband to come here looking for his wife, besides you know I won't want you to go.
Well, I won't be going back today, I will stay for a while.
If you say so, anyways let's do something refreshing. 💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤
I just came back from Abba's, nobody was at home, not that i was expecting any and my mind drifted back to the conversation we had earlier, it was about salim though, he told me to be patient with him, that he will come around soon. He told me stuffs about salim, some funny things even his child hood, I use to imagine my mother in-law telling me stories of my husband not my father in-law, and talking about my mother in-law, I don't know anything about her, not even her name and nobody have ever mention her name.
I wanted asking about her but decide against it, it seems like a sensitive topic, I guess they will tell me if or when they want to.
And abba even when he smiles or laugh if you look into his eyes you will see sadness in them.
I'm curious to know though. But I don't see that happening anytime soon.
..
