MUNIRA'S POV

I woke up to the sound of the adhan, cocooned in the arms of Hisham. I smiled at the feeling and tried to get his arms of my body so that I can perform my ablution and also wake him to go to the mosque.

Due to my wiggling, I woke Hisham up. "Stop wiggling love" he said. "It is time for prayers Hisham, I want to perform ablution and you also need to go to the mosque" I said.

"Okay then" Hisham released me. I made my way to the bathroom and did the needful. As I came out, Hisham was no where to be found, he must have left to the mosque I thought.

I spread the praying mat on the floor, wore my hijab and offered my salah. As I finished, I did my azhkar and as I laid back down on the bed, Hisham came into the room.

He laid beside me and pulled me to him hugging me by the waist and my head on his chest, that was how we fell asleep again.

The next I woke up, Hisham was not beside me, but I heard the shower running, so I concluded he was in the bathroom.

I took my phone which was on the bedside and logged in to my Instagram account. I found out I had about 800k new followers and our wedding was every where on those arewa channels. I would have to talk to Hisham about it because I do not like the fact that our wedding is all over the net.

I was still scrolling through my home page when Hisham came out of the walk-in fully dressed. "Good morning" I greeted smiling. "Morning love, how was your night?" he asked. "Alhamdullilah" I said.

"Let me have my bath then I will cook breakfast for us" I said, making a mental note to call Ammi and thank her. "You don't have to do that, Ammi already sent Amani and Farhanah to bring it" he informed.

"Oh okay, are Amani and Farhanah still here or have they left already?" I asked. "They left immediately they dropped the food off" he said. "Okay then let me freshen up" I said.

"I will be waiting for you in the living room downstairs so we can eat together" he said making his way to the door. I nodded.

I made my way to the walk in closet and that was when I noticed my lefe arranged in one corner, I will unpack fully later.

I choose my outfit for the day, a green coloured luxury lace sown into a Borno style gown with its head wrap.

After taking my bath and doing the needful, I came out of the bathroom and into the walk-in to dress up. I applied a very basic make-up, which included only powder, lip balm and eye liner, also spritzing my signature perfume.

I took my phone and came out of the room to meet Hisham who was in the living room downstairs.

"Lets eat" I said to him as I entered the living. "You look gorgeous as always love" Hisham smiled and winked at me. He pulled me along as he was going out, I yelped. "Hisham" I said.

"Yes love" he said knowingly. We sat at the dining me sitting opposite him as I served myself and him.

"When are you going back to school?" Hisham started. "In the next three weeks inshaallah" I answered. "You are in your final year right?" he asked. " Yes we will be graduating in the next 2 months" I informed.

"Okay then" he said. We were done eating breakfast with a light conversation and then we moved to the living room to find something to watch.

We settled down on the couch seating on a love seat as Hisham pulled me close to him and wrapped an arm around my waist as I laid my head on his chest. In that position, we searched through Netflix to find a movie to watch.

Finally we settled on watching a k drama, more like me forcing Hisham to watch with me, of course he was annoyed but he could not do anything hehehehehehe.

The drama we are watching now is My Demon.

"Song Kang is just so handsome wlh and when he smiles oh god" I rambled. Suddenly Hisham pulled me off him and made me face him. "I don't want to hear you talking about another guy, about how handsome the person is when you have a handsome specimen as a husband" Hisham said possessively with eyes filled with jealousy.

"Is my husband jealous" I said with a teasing smile on my face. "No I am not I am just possessive of you and you are mine alone so do not say that again" He said with a serious face.

"Okay if you say so, but seems like you are jealous to me, and also do not worry I am yours alone Hisham. No one can say otherwise, my jealous husband" I said smiling.

"I am not jealous wifey, I am just possessive of you" he said with an emotion that I could not point out. "Okay then" I said still smiling.

After watching 3 more episodes, the adhan was called and Hisham left to go to the mosque, while I pray at home.

I finished praying and went back downstairs to find Hisham with a pad in his hands ready to play a game with his PS5. "I want to play too" I said even though I had no idea about it, yes my brothers have it and always play but I never did and was never interested, but now I am.

Just as I sat down, the door bell rang and I went to open the door. "Are you expecting a guest today?" Hisham asked. "No I am not" I answered.

"Who could it be then?" he asked. "Let me go and check".

As I opened the door, I saw Zaid's fiancée Maryam.

"Wow what a surprise, come on in" I smiled at her and moved for her so that she can enter.

"Munira how far, how are you kwana biyu" Maryam said as I led her to the other palour downstairs, not where Hisham is. "Wlh fah, im fine how about you?" I asked.

"I am fine, Im sorry I could not make it to the wedding, I was writing exams" she said with an apologetic smile on her face. "Babu komai fah, I really understand" I assured.

"Ina zuwa, please make your self comfortable" I said as I stood up to go to the kitchen to bring refreshments. I went back to the palour and met Maryam surfing through her phone. I dropped the tray on the center table and sat down opposite her.

"You should not have bothered yourself I am not staying long" Maryam said. "Haba, how can you come to my house and not eat anything, it is not even food fah just snacks" I said teasingly.

"Okay oooo" she laughed. Maryam ate a little of the snacks and I then went to call Hisham who was in the other palour so they can greet.

"Hisham, Maryam is here and she is leaving now, she wants to greet you" I told him after entering the room. "Okay but who is she?" he asked.

"She is Zaid's fiancée" I informed. "Okay then, lets go" he said and then held my hands as we made our way to the other palour, I did not try to remove my hand from his because I loved it.

"Assalam alaykum" we said as we entered the palour and Maryam greeted back.

Maryam left after they greeted, but there was an emotion in her eyes that I did not like when she saw Hisham, and I wont be naïve to say I was imagining it because I was sure of what I saw.
