Chasing Her Dreams

Chapter 20

*Vacation

*Mheerat

We were back in the Lagos. It's been a month since the incident of scorpion or whatever he's called. Glad to be back home where I belong.

Babygirl... These past couple of months have been rough for us both. We've been through ups and downs. But now the past is all behind us. We've not had time to spend together. What do you think about a vacation my love. Just the two of us.

Oh my God are you kidding me? A vacation sounds more than welcoming. We've been through so much we deserve a break from everything.

So where would you like to go on your vacation babygirl.

Hmmm it's a tough choice. Babe let's go to Dubai.

Dubai it is my love.

Yeah baby am going to Dubai.

Next week came and we were in Dubai. This place is so amazing, the scenery, the people, the places, the food. everything about this place is amazing. We lodged at a 5star hotel.

Now this place screams sophistication.

I wrote a list of what I'd want to do during my stay here in Dubai. I wanna go shopping, restaurant touring, ride on a camel and so much more.

I made afeez join me on all my adventure. What better way than to complete my list together with my love. Few days later, we ticked out the final item on my list. My stay here has been amazing.

Today am going to the spa. My skin deserves some love. After my spa treatment, my skin felt as soft as that of a baby. Afeez and I are having dinner at the Fancy restaurant on a yatch.

I got dressed in one of the outfits I got from my shopping spree. A black shimmery channel dress. The top of the dress a lacey black blouse and the rest is made up of a fine silky material. Crystals arranged down to the sleeves.

I went with a smokey eye and red glossy lips. I stood in front of the mirror taking this magnificent view. Here we are once again. Few months ago I couldn't do any of these. But now here I am.

*Afeez

I got dressed in a pair of burgundy trousers, a white turtle neck top and a burgundy blazer. My shoes a velvety burgundy colour. My hair cut low.

I sure look good.

She stepped out of the room looking like the most beautiful girl in the world. My Jaws hanging wide. I couldn't take my eyes of this beauty. She looks more beautiful everyday I see her. Am so lucky to have such an amazing person in my life.

Shall we mi lady?

Yes we shall my prince...

We got to the restaurant. A classy looking place on a yatch. Everyone here looked relaxed and happy. This vacation has done us good but Dubai hasn't given us everything yet. Without mheerat's acknowledgment, there's still one thing on the list waiting to be checked off.

We order for some sea food. I went with sushi while mheerat went for lobster soup.

Babygirl, am so happy to have you in my life. Ever since you walked into my life, you've brought joy to my soul. Falling in love without has been the best decision I've ever made. Before I told myself I wasn't going to love anyone. But I was only deceiving myself. You're the best thing that has ever happened to me. Thank you for choosing me. Thank you for giving me a chance to love and adore you. I love you to the moon and back mheerat.

*Mheerat

His little speech got me tearing. Falling in love with you has been the best afeez. Am happy I have you in my life. I haven't felt this happy in forever. I love you too afeez.

After our dinner, we went up to the roof.

Look up to the sky my love. Tell me what do you see.

I looked up to the night sky. The view's amazing. I see thousands of stars twinkling in the night sky. The moon shining so bright. By the time I turned back towards him, he was already down on one knee. What's happening? Is he going to...

Mheerat ibrahim. Will you marry me?

There was only one thing on my mind. And that is to say yes. Yes afeez I'll marry you. He slipped the diamond ring into my finger. I felt so overjoyed. Tears of joy rolling down my cheeks. The love of my life just proposed to me. This is the best day of my life.

Yes. She said yes. Thank you for saying yes my love. You've made the happiest man alive.

Am engaged y'all....
