SHUMAYLL 

A week, a week since we are married and I am proud to say, Iqra and I are making progress 

No, she is not yet marked as mine but oh well, good things take patience 

"What the he-" i say as i see Iqra smiling at her phone 

"No thats not how you take a selfie!" i said, taking away her phone 

"Shumayll!!" she whined and i laughed 

"I love you!" i smiled and held up her phone 

she stood behind me growling at me 

"Please?" i asked her, from the selfie camera and she sighed

"Fine" she muttered and stood behind me 

Before i took the photo, i abruptly turned around and gave hre lips a quick kiss 

her soft lips moulded to mine and tingles and sparks flew all around my body, giving me heat 

before i could deepen the kiss, she pulled away 

"Happy?" I asked her and she grinned at me, her cheeks painted faint pink 

"Very!" she winked and i groaned

"Iqra!" I whined and she laughed

"Selfie?" she questioned and i nodded

I turned to the camera, smiling as Iqra stood behind me, her head on my shoulder and arms around me 

I clicked the picture perfect photo 

She stuck her tongue out at me and i took that photo too 

We played about with the photos until i got a call 

"Hello, Shumayll Edris speaking" i said holding up two fingers to Iqra indicating i will be back in 2 minutes 

she nodded at me before walking out of the bedroom to the living room to watch TV 

"Ah finally, Shumayll Edris, how are you?" a female voice asked me 

"Good, good, may i know who i am speaking to?" i questioned walking out of the room into the huge open balcony 

"Edreena Raymound" she replied 

"Ma'am, i am sorry but i don't recall knowing you, if you have any appointments with me, please speak with my PA" i said 

"No no, dearest, no" she said laughing 

"Who are you?" i questioned 

"Pity your father never told you about me. And here i thought he would at least have the courtesy to tell you!" she said and my brows furrowed 

"What?" i questioned

"Let me make a deal here, Mr. Edris, Give me an hour of your time and i will explain it all to you" she bargained

"half an hour" i said and she laughed

"It will not be enough" she replied

"You are right, 15 minutes and thats my final offer" i said and she laughed

"Ever so like your father" she replied 

"Edris tech Centre, Conference hall at 4pm sharp today" i said and she chuckled
