"What?" Zuliey asked with worries written all over her face "Where are my babies?" I asked and she looked at me astonished "What babies?" She asked and I began to panic "My twins, quadruplet?" I asked and she laughed "What are you talking about? Calm down, it was prolly a nightmare" she said laughing

"Please this can't be true. Where's Kabeer?" I asked "And who is Kabeer?" She asked with a raised eyebrow "My...my husband" I stuttered "Husband ke? Mahmud is your future husband" she said "Mahmud is my ex" I said fully alarmed and she looked at me like I'm crazy as I wrapped my legs with my hands and stare into space

The room door opened and it revealed my mother in-law, sighting her I screamed and went to hug her tightly "Thank Allah you're finally up" she said hugging me, I only smiled "I'd get you something to eat and then you'd have your bath" she said and I thanked her, immediately she left I glared at Zuliey "What?" She asked acting all innocent "What was that for?" I asked "A little prank on my sister isn't too much, is it?" She asked with a puppy face, I stare at her for a while imagining how to strike and punish her but then I noticed her stomach which was a bit podgy and so I left it for later

"I see the result of what your husband has been doing" I said smirking and she blushed "Girl don't even start with my husband" she said with a little attitude slightly scratching her hair acting ratchet and I laughed "What really happened tho? Last place I remembered been at was at Abuja and here I am at Zaria?" I asked confused

"An injection was given to you so you could rest but it was given in overdose and you slept for three days straight" she said and I looked at her in disbelieve "I am such a sleeper. Who injected me?" I asked "A nurse, what was her name again? Uhh... Niola" she said as I shook my head "These are the kind of people that claimed to be medically qualified and still kill people" I said and she nodded in agreement "She was given a detention" she replied and I sighed in relief "Mummy! Mummy!" The twins called and hugged me "Hello my little angels" I pecked their cheeks and they giggled "Mummy I'm now a big boy now that I have a younger brother" Hanif said and I shuffled his hair roughly "Of course you are" I said, pulling at his long hair and wondering why Kabeer hasn't given him a haircut "I miss you mummy" Hanan said holding my hand firmly "I miss you too baby girl" I said kissing her nose

"Assalamu alaykum" I heard my favourite voice greeted and I lowered my head blushing, the bed dipped and I know he was sitting next to me, God his Cologne...
He lifted my head and made me face him so we could see eye to eye, my eyes captured his handsome face and my eyes stuck on his eyes drowning in those brown sugar. Oh my God! Ever since when did I get this romantic? That sleep has an impact on me, our attention got divided by the dry cough of my Darling sister Zuliey (sarcasm)

"Come on guys, let's go play with grandpa" she said holding their hands as they disappeared in no time, only after she gave me a smirk, he hugs me immediately and I tensed up as he withdrew from the hug "What? You don't miss me?" He asked folding his arms and pouting a bit "Of course I do" I said "You don't seem like it" he said frowning and it was my turn to hug him tightly, I felt him smiling against my skin, after a while that seemed like forever we withdrew from the hug and the atmosphere was tensed

"Uhm, I brought food" he said handling it to me and he scratching the nape of his neck "Well thanks" I said awkwardly "You're welcome I guess" he said, after a long mind wrestle of either the spoon or the fork, I finally chose the fork and was about to dig in when he held my hand "What are you trying to do? Girl you know feeding you is my favourite thing to do" he said and I rolled my eyes "Uh please hurry, I'm famished" I whined "Bring your fine mouth here" he said and I opened my mouth as he began to stare "Is you feeding me or nah?" I asked and he mouthed 'Ohh' he stuffed my mouth with the savoury Jollof rice that was in front of me as I chewed the spicy delight, he fed me, I fed him and we were done in no time
