Khadijah flutter her eyes open. She stretch her body.
You finally woke up. You got me worried. Affan muttered.
Khadijah blink her eyes at him.
Why are you here?
Why I'm I here?
We slept in the same room.
I prepare breakfast for you. Affan took the tray and dropped it in front of her.

I will brush my teeth first khadijah mumble and scramble out of bed.
She brush her teeth and walk out of the bathroom.
Why are you being nice to me after what you did to me yesterday?
Haven, we have sort it out and you've forgiven me and I also promise to change the hospital where I work.

Where is she?
I hope she didn't use my kitchen because I will not share my kitchen with her.
Affan walk to Khadijah.
Haven, are you alright?
You just wake up and you are acting strange.
No one is in the house with us.
It's only me and you.
Khadijah hug Affan.
Realization dawn on her that everything she thought happened was all a dream.

Hubby, are you sure Aisha is not here with us?
That means I had a dream.
Khadijah touch her cheek.
Her eyes dart to her phone.
Hubby, please don't leave me. Khadijah cried.
I promise I will not.
You are the only woman I will spend the rest of my life with.
No one will come in between us.

Khadijah has her breakfast.
Hubby, can I go with you?
Why?
Hubby, please.
I will be bored at home and I don't want to go to my company. Khadijah pout.
Okay, finish your breakfast and take your bath.

So she love me so much that she has been worried since she heard about Aisha.
Affan muttered inwardly.
Stop giving me that look. Khadijah pout.
Affan smiled and rose to his feet.
I'm sorry, you can stay.
Haven, I need to get dressed too.
Affan twirl around and twist the doorknob.
He walk out of Khadijah's bedroom.

Alhamdullilah it was a dream.
Khadijah glanced at her cheek in the mirror.
She touched it and burst into a fit of laughter.
Hubby, I received the worst slap I have never received from you.
Ya, Rabb! When did I do that? Affan walk to her and hug her chubby body.
He wrap his hand around her waist.

I don't see any mark on your cheek.
It was a dream. Khadijah roll her eyes.
That dream is horrible.
No matter what I will never hit you.
You are my wife and the mother of my children.
I love you, Dee.
I love you too. Khadijah retort.

Affan's phone started ringing.
Aisha is calling. Affan whisper in Khadija's ear.
Khadijah snatch the phone from Affan.
She glance at the caller ID.
Adnan. Khadijah mumble.
Affan burst into a fit of laughter.
He pick up the call.

Adnan, how are you?
How is Asma?
Bro we are fine. How is your wife?
She is fine.
Ya Affan, Adnan called.
Yes.
Ummi has been reluctant since yesterday that she will be staying with us.
Ya Affan, I don't like the idea because Ummi and Asma might not get along for too long.

I am not ready for her nagging behaviour. Adnan mumble.
Khadijah Humm.
Why did she want to stay with you?
Ya Affan, since heard of Asma's pregnancy she has been persistent that she will stay with us to take care of her.
She also said she can't stay in the house alone. Adnan mumble.

Adnan, sabr, please.
Just let her come.
You and Asma should be patient with her.
Adnan, she is your mother and it's your responsibility to take care of her.
I wish she would agree to come to my house then if she stay for two weeks in your place she will come over to my place and stay for weeks too.
Khadijah glared at Affan.
I will not allow her to come here. Khadijah mumble.

Adnan, go and pick her up. Affan muttered.
Okay. Adnan mumbled and hung up.
Are you ready? Affan turn to Khadijah.
She nod her head and pick up her phone and bag.
