Aaidah:

Next morning I woke up while wrapped up in Aaran's arms. I kept staring at him still thinking if all these are a dream or real. “It's real.” I snapped back to reality by Aaran's voice. “Don't overthink, Mrs. Zombie.” I glared at him. He leaned in closer giving me a quick peck on the lips. “Get freshen up. Or-” I looked at him curiously wanting to know what else he wants to say. “You want to go for another round?” He asked while smirking at me. “No. I'm too tired.” I said while rolling my eyes at him as I sat up straight on the bed, stretching out my arms.

“You look divine in my shirt, jaan.” This compliment from him made me blush. I don't know why but it did. “I never thought I would see the great Aaidah Sheikh blushing in the morning after she woke up when she is usually in a bad mood.” I took a pillow and threw it at him. He is not effected by it. Instead he is laughing. I got up and went to the bathroom more like I ran away to avoid furthermore embarrassment.

After the shower I came out and Aaran came towards me taking the towel from me as he started drying my hair. I think this will become a daily routine for us. It's better for me as I'm too lazy to dry my hair on my own. “I will buy the medicines for you on our way to your office, okay?” I nodded my head at what he said. After drying my hair, he went to take a shower. Since I'm ready I went downstairs. I should help maa cause nowadays she does everything on her own as Zaria have to take care of the twins most of the time. Besides maa herself don't let Zaria work and instead tell her to give all her attention to the twins.

Maa is such a great mother-in-law. I hope every women gets a mother-in-law like her. With these thoughts in my mind I entered inside the kitchen only to see Naida helping maa with cooking. I don't like this woman at all. Maybe because I know that she likes Aaran or maybe loves him deeply judging by how she behaves around him. She is always trying to be near Aaran and now she is trying to get close to his maa? Trying to act like a perfect woman? I clenched my fists. My morning was good today but now it's ruined by this woman. Why does she even come here always? Don't she have any other work to do at her home or office? 

“Aaidah, you woke up. Come and sit for breakfast.” Maa's voice made me come back to reality. I sat down on my chair. After a while Aaran came too who sat beside me as usual. He didn’t even look at Naida, forget about greeting her. “Good morning Aaran.” Naida said in a sweet voice which I found annoying to hear. Aaram only hummed in response which made Naida look away from him. Good! Look away from my husband like that. Otherwise next time I might just stab her and kill her for staring at him. I won't even hesitate to do that. What's mine is mine. No one else can even stare at it.

I felt Aaran's gaze on me so I looked at him, tilting my head in confusion. “Relax. I'm only yours. I don't even acknowledge her presence.” Is he reassuring me now? I kept looking at him and he also kept looking at me until we heard maa's voice, “First eat then you two can keep staring at each other.” I immediately looked away and started to eat my food. After a while I almost chocked on my food when I felt Aaran's hand on my thighs while he is eating peacefully as if totally unaware of what he is doing.

I had to eat without trying to move too much or making any noise cause his hand is now resting on my core exactly. I glared at him. Meanwhile this idiot is smiling at me innocently. After breakfast I quickly got out from the house after biding bye to maa. I got inside his car, taking deep breaths trying to calm down myself. “What were you doing there?!” I asked Aaran as soon as he got inside the car. “I'm starting the car?” I glared at him. I buckled my seatbelt as he started driving the car.

“Aren't you wet?” I chocked after hearing his question. How did he knew? “I know everything.” He is saying this so normally while looking ahead at the road. Suddenly he stopped the car on the side of the road so I looked at him confusedly. “Come and sit on my lap.” I kept looking at him dumbfounded. “Don't make me repeat myself.” His voice made me move towards him automatically. It was a bit hard to move since we are in the car now.
