Aisha had gotten dressed in her wedding dress and tied her veil. It was a dark red fitted gown and she'd put on dark red stiletto heels. She looked like a hijabi princess and Farida was just gushing. Hanifa and Humaira got dressed in their bride maid attire. The other bride maids had gotten ready as well and Farida, the chief bridal maid had worn her attire. Aisha looked stunning in her dress, her jewelry shimmered and her smile was brighter than ever. . .

"I'm 100% sure Ibrahim won't be able to take his eyes off you" she teased

"That's the point na" Aisha said and Farida jeered helping her lower her veil as Aisha picked up her bouquet. Minutes later one of the coordinating staff walked in.

"You'll be coming out in 2 minutes" she said with a bright smile.

"Ok thank you" Faridah said getting in line with the other bride maids.

The doors opened and the bridal maids danced out to the Hausa tunes, Ibrahim was standing on the center stage and, Yassir spotted Farida winking at her and she smiled dancing even more, making Yassir jealous. Aisha's carefully walked up the center stage as the staff helped with her dress, pictures were being taken and Aisha could see Ibrahim through the red transparent veil. He took her hand helping her properly unto the stage. . .

He rolled up her veil and she smiled at him gracefully as the audience cheered. They sat on their couch and Aisha could spot her parents, for the first time they looked so happy for her, she smiled at her mom who blew kisses for her. She smiled at Ibrahim's parents as well and they smiled back. She didn't fail to see Samira waving energetically at her, she also didn't miss the small smile on Sultana's face, sultana gave a small thumbs up and Aisha smiled at her.

Ibrahim was dressed in a black shiny kaftan which looked as expensive as ever. He had on designer shoes watch and even cufflinks. His babariga was folded up on his shoulder as he sat beside Aisha

During the middle of the wedding, a lot of games and fun spread around. Later after the wedding ceremony was the evening party. Aisha had to change, Faridah helped her change into a beautiful black Kimono which was covered in glittering sparkles. She wore black heels to match and changed her jewelry. Faridah changed as well into a pink dress and white heels.

When she walked out the cake had arrived and so she was called to take pictures with Ibrahim. She took pictures with Ibrahim, his sisters, her cousins, friends, her parents, in-laws and some guests as well.

"Aisha! It's time for your dance with Ibrahim" Farida says and helps Aisha to the dance floor.

Everyone quiets down as Ibrahim takes her hand and dances with her slowly. He places his hand firmly on her waist pulling her closer as they dance, the lights go dim and fog gathers around the floor covering their feet.

"I can't believe this is happening" Aisha says

"I feel so happy right now" he says and their foreheads touch. She interlaces her hands behind his neck and chuckles.

"What should we do when we get home?" she asks

"Let's go out to eat" she answers and they laugh hugging each other.

"Let's have a party at home" he says

After a while the music ends and Ibrahim places a kiss on her forehead as the lights become bright. Aisha could hear Samira and Farida jeering loudly as everyone clapped and cheered for them.

. . .

At the end of the evening party guests began leaving but at the exit, each guest got a bag with gifts from the bride and groom customized with their initials 'IBSHA'. When everywhere is tidy, Aisha and Ibrahim get home in a separate car, they planned on having a small celebration with the parents, cousins and friends. Once everyone got to their house Aisha ordered food from a five-star restaurant.

There was champagne and jokes all around, everyone was happy for Ibrahim and Aisha, Samira kept on telling Aisha how excited she was, she was just like Farida. Sultana apologized for her awful behavior and congratulated Aisha, Yassir and Farida were going to stay behind after the party, Ibrahims parents prayed for their children and congratulated them. Aisha's parents did the same, Aishas brother looked for her trouble and caused mischief.

Later everyone was settled and having chats and Aisha's parents called her aside.

"Aisha first of all I want to congratulate you on your happy day and I bless your marriage" her mom begins

"Thank you" Aisha smiles

"Aisha, we are immensely sorry for the bad treatment, for being oppressive and too hard on you. we weren't the best parents and we want to make things right, so please forgive us" Her father says and she looks at them speechless. She became teary-eyed and hugged her mom lightly, her dad hugged them both and Aisha felt good to herself, she was even with her parents. . .

At the end of their little gathering Everyone except Farida and Yassir leaves. Aisha changes from her dress into a slim sleeved nightwear and matching shorts, she wore an after dress over it to cover herself and tied her scarf.

"Now that everyone is gone, lets pop out the wine!" Farida says bringing out the wine and glass cups, setting the table.

"Yayy!" Basra raises her hands in excitement, not even knowing what she was excited for. Everyone laughs at her cute expressions. . .

"You have some juice my baby" Faridah says giving her juice in her feeding bottle. Yassir pours the wine into the glasses and they drink up while having a chat.

"I swear I can't wait to be an aunty, Basra would have a friend to play with" Farida says

"I think before that, Basra should have younger siblings, maybe three more" Yassir says

"Just say you want me dead" she says and they laugh

"Don't worry, you'll hear the news when its time" Ibrahim says placing his hand across Aisha's shoulder. She rests into him and smiles

They spend an extra hour and finally leave the married again couple in peace. Immediately Ibrahim closes the front door he turns and sweeps Aisha off her feet and she holds unto him tightly for dear life not expecting what he did. He carries her upstairs and into his bedroom. He drops her on his bed and she screams.

"Ibrahim what are you doing?" Aisha asks and he pulls off his shirt leaving him in a vest and his trousers.

"I'm hungry for you tonight" he says hovering over her, placing both his hands on each side of her head.

"Uhm" she swallows feeling nervous.

He leans in placing small kisses on her neck up to her chin, he stares into her eyes and suddenly the mood changes. He leans closer till their faces are only inches away.

"We have unfinished business" he says remembering when Saratu interrupted them and he smirks at her

She closes her eyes and he moves in just a bit closer and finally what he had been waiting for had come. He got a chance to kiss her soft lips, she moaned into his mouth making sounds that got him even more crazy for her. He bit her lips and she opened up as he explored the corners of her mouth, both of them fighting for dominance. He was her first kiss and she wasn't going to regret it.

It got intense as she began digging her nails into his skin. He slowly moved her after dress, pulling it off her shoulders not breaking the kiss. He is about to pull off her shirt and he stops pulling away and looking at her.

"Are you ready?" he asks and she nods nervously.

. . .

Aisha walks out of his bathroom in a robe as she dries her hair with another towel. He asks had a shower and changed to his nightwear. He picked one of his old shirts giving them to Aisha. As she put it on he laughs at how big it is on her, she puts on one of his shorts and gets in bed with him. They cuddle up and it's not long before Aisha falls asleep, it was a tiresome day for them both. . .

"This is nice" Ibrahim whispers and Aisha smiles.
