FOR HER 🌹

"Two or three kids will do, Ife" she laughed out loud
I could see the happiness in her eyes, they were like a galaxy of stars in the cloud
I loved moments like these. When we'd sit, and talk of the future, staring at the moon
We were getting married the next day, how did it come so soon?

Anya was the most beautiful bride i had ever seen
I kept staring at her and quickly stared away, as though my eyes were committing a sin
"For goodness sake, she's your bride to be, Ife. Snap out of it"
I laughed at myself, trying to hide all the pride i felt, beneath.

" I do." she smiled and said.
In that moment, my heart almost jumped out of my chest
"You may now kiss the bride" the reverend said, with his eyes giving the signal.
I leaned close and gave her a kiss. I love this woman. In my heart and in my soul, there was no denial.

I looked at maami where she sat.
I knew she wasn't happy, deep in her heart.
since baba died, i had done everything in my power to please her.
But now, Anya was priority and just like i did maami, I'd do anything FOR HER..
