The Last 5days were eventful and the today is the day, earlier that morning the Nikah was tie,
He looks happy and excited to start his life with kubrah because despite their differences he knows she's the one for him, opposite attracts they said and it's no difference with him, he knows he's immature and kubrah on the other hand is matured she has been the backbone of the relationship that sometimes he feels like he doesn't feel complete without her anymore because she's been with him through all the process from him been childish to this point where he realizes she is the one for him.

"Such a party pooper,
It's been a while I eat what I love."munirah admitted with her strict diet schedule despite not been her favorite things she always try to stick to them because she knows it's for her own good.

"I can't wait for ya shagari to see you,

"He told me that he must be a fool to wanted to postponed the wedding again that I should slap him so his sense will come back more."kubrah says laughing as her friends chuckle.

The process t get ready has always been hassle, with Abdullahi at Aisha's place the last couple of days she seees rare of him, they met most at times at the event center and he do always initiate conversation she can tell he's trying but it's just not enough,
By the time they were done and set to leave for the hall they were already 45minutes late,

The drive to the event center was a short one, Kareem went on his doctors appointment today and he's still fussy about it so it's been a rough day for her.

"Has he slept?"Halimah ask as she glance at the hall where most people are now inside.

"Yes but the music is the problem now.......
