YOURS, JANNAH

#FORTY THREE

COMMENT ON EACH PARAGRAPH FOR MORNING UPDATE...😮‍💨 where's mss_amee please? 🌚

Gaily embellishing her eyes to double up eyeliner streaks, Jannah widened them to check whether they have the same dashes and it came out... perfect. It's been awhile since she's drawn that but it came out flawless thanks to Aisha's vigorous lessons when they started the entire amnesia stuff. Which reminded her, she is going to bring an end to this charade soon.

There is no use now. She's gotten what she wanted, her daughter's father's attention on the both of them. Even if she tells him the truth now, it's not like he is going to be all angry and stop talking to her. If what she's learned about him is anything but truth, he isn't that kind of man. Maybe he'd shake his head at her antics and they will move on? Or something much worse would happen.

Either way, she's decided to bring everything to a cessation as soon as possible. She thought meandering her way through his life would require so much more than her being feral, that proved to be wrong. The manacle and affiliation between them shouldn't be questioned, even he feels that though he wants to end it. She will give him time but won't hang around for long, forestalling the inevitable.

One thing she's inculcated in herself during this ride with Adnan is, her mental health would still matter the most. He doesn't trigger all those heebie-jeebies or botheration anymore, something entirely different now eventuates whenever she is in his presence. Sense of contentment, security, confidence, ease and sureness just by being with him. Is there anything better than being safe in the arms of your husband? She'd think not.

Is it stupid to call all these love? She's felt that since the very moment he opened that glass cubicle door for her in his room. Perhaps this is all love entails right? Though once in awhile, she gets frightened when she remembered how mad he was at her for that contract fiasco she pulled. But what happened next should prove that this is all not one sided right? He made love to her albeit punishing her in process but still, it was different.

She blinked when the Haus Labs Liquid Eye-Lie-Ner fell from her lax fingers down to the crow tiled floor. A smile strapped her lips showing her two rabbit front teeth, again with the thought. Or is it because she's missed him the whole of yesterday? He didn't come back home but she is certain he hasn't left Nigeria, somewhere lurking around to avoid her. Mayhap?

Standing up, she surveyed her outfit from head to toe. She is going to see her mother-in-law so it's best to exhibit just how much a lot of things had changed with her visit to Maldives. Physically she hasn't changed much but she's got a flab behind her arms which is something right? She is gaining weight as atrocious as that sounds to Aisha when she found out.

Aisha hysterically raised her arm when she noticed it after they've finished having their dinner the night before. "You cannot have fat!"

Jannah had raised a brow in catechism for she makes no sense. "Says someone who's more than just chubby." She murmured while sipping her favorite carbonated drink, Pepsi.

"I know! Your body is way more beautiful without fat while I am ravishing with it." Aisha flaunted her body a little then sat back down with a sigh repleted with designation.

"My mother-in-law is definitely going to think otherwise."

Aisha had rolled her eyes with a scoff, pushing her punch pink lips forward. "Leave Hajiya out of this, the woman is old. With fat in you, so many things are going to change."

"Like what?" Her voice was colored with curiosity hoping it has nothing to do with Adnan, she'd prove her wrong remembering the words he'd said days ago.
