Falling. Still falling. She's standing my way. 3 years since I moved in at my aunt's to start college at the city. Not once have I ever been at peace. Every family has its quirks and demons and that's okay but she and her daughter were one hell of a problem . I don't remember wronging them but they just couldn't accept the fact that am living with them.
Neither, i mean if i was given a chance to move out i wouldn't hesitate but circumstances forced me to stay there. I was winding up my studies and I didn't find myself any job yet so to escape all those expenses I had to practice patience and wait till the right time comes. Momma back at home was so happy that I was getting done with school and every single time she would ask if am treated well. I didn't tell her a thing that was happening because stressing her was the last thing I wanted.
But unfortunately it got to a point where the gripping drama was starring up and no matter how much I tried my best to ignore I just couldn't. I couldn't take it anymore. I badly wanted to move out. I wanted to have my peace of mind. And just then at that moment I can't tell how it happened exactly but I met Ahmad.
He had the most beautiful voice I had ever heard. With just one meeting I had slipped, stumbled and fallen head over heels in love with him! He was everything in a man that I wanted and much more. We both clicked instantly. I met him at the right time, I couldn't be more than happy. We got to know more about each other and a month later he proposed. That's how serious he was with me.
To be honest marriage was literally the last thing I had in mind. Not that I didn't want to but I kinda felt that it wasn't the right time. But Ahmad's love overpowered everything and I accepted the proposal.
We prepared for our wedding. Not a grand wedding just a simple one is what him and I preferred.
I moved to my new house together with my mom..
9 months later am holding my baby boy in my arms. His eyes are more brilliant than I could have dreamed they would be. His hands more delicate. Looks so perfect and smells so divine.
That was the greatest days of my life ...i gazed into his eyes I felt a sense of relief and hope. The emotions that I felt are beyond what words can explain. It’s amazing to me that in the first few minutes of his life he completely changed my perception of the word Care.
