🍃FLAWS OF A WIFE🍃

Home sweet home.

I slowly opened my eyes to the familiar room that was looking a bit different with years of course but it still looked and scented familiar just like the old times.I felt my head was a heavy a bit thinking how did I end up at home from the airport then I recalled how I fainted drastically at the airport.

"Silly me."I murmured feeling embarrassed and shy at the same time for falling at my boss's arms in the huge public like that.

I mean who does that?????

"Ah finally you're awake,Alhamdulillah."mama said immediately she came into the room.

"Mama."I cried almost immediately.

We both practically ran towards each with same energy of love.Both of us forgot about all the grudges and pains.

You know that bound between a mother and daughter,that love that never fades away no matter what the circumstances were,no matter what wrong either the mom or the daughter committed to one another.At that moment,mama forgot all I've done to her from running away from my home without telling anyone down to me been the cause of my marriage falling apart (as she would say whenever the topic of my failed marriage arises).

"Am sorry mama,sorry for everything."I said hugging her tighter while I sob.

"Shhhhh my dear,stop apologizing I am the one to apologize.Being your mother I should have reasoned with you and I should have supported you immensely."she said while she rests my head on her shoulder.

That day mama feed me with her own hands while she gently caressed my hair until I feel asleep on her shoulder.Lots and tons of family members came visiting although I know most of them came to see what I've turned into,they didn't actually came because they cared.By the end of the day I was so exhausted that I went to bed immediately after I had dinner and took a warm bath.And that was how I spent the week.

Later on a Sunday evening after I had just came out from the bathroom after taking a long cold showers because of how hot the weather was.I got dressed in a simple half gown that was down almost to my knees that I paired with a not tight jeans trouser.

"Where have you been I've been looking for you all over the house."mama said exaggerating as she entered the just as I finished packing my hair in a ponytail and covered it with a ready made turban .

"Mama I just came out from a bath,did you needed me for something."I said turning to face her.

"No,you have a visitor downstairs."she said and I could swear I saw a grin plastered on her face .

"What visitor mama."I asked confused cause I wasn't expecting any visitor,not that I know of.

"The man that brought you home from the airport,I didn't even got his name."she said trying to recall if she had asked his name.

"Marshal?."I asked mama uncertained hoping she will say no.

"Yes that's his name."mama said.

I haven't meet Marshal ever since the event at the airport although mama had told me he was the one that brought me home after I had passed out.I wasn't even bothered because of how occupied I was throughout the week.Truth to be told I totally forgot I was even going to work here.

"Mama,where is he,let me go."I said almost panicking as I wore the soft slippers that I kept beside my bed.

"Ke where are you going like that."mama said half yelling.

"Better change into something more modest and traditional,if you like wear one of those your abayahs and see what I will do to you."she said strictly.
