"So sweetheart, where do you wanna go first? Wanna grab something to eat?" "Yes please." We went to Krispy Kremes to buy some yummy doughnuts and milkshakes. We walked into several different shops and bought a variety of different things like Ali brought some t shirts and shorts, joggers, some sandals, pjs and I brought some long dresses, some long sleeve shirts, some long skirts and tights, some sandals, hijabs, jewellery, make up and handbags.

We stopped at a chemists and I brought different pain killers, birth control pills, condoms, bandages, sunscreen. Ali went and changed some money into foreign currency.

Finally we arrived at Victoria's Secret and I was feeling a little anxious as I'd never been to a lingerie store before. "Ali, are you sure that we should go in there. I mean, it's a bit strange." "Hey, you have absolutely nothing to worry about, Zahra. Would you like me to come with you, sweetheart?" "I wanted to surprise you." I whispered. "Aah, well darling, I wanna give you this, my card, to buy whatever you want. It is ours from now on. Pick whatever you want. As long as you feel confident, comfortable and beautiful, I'll love it." He said before taking my hand gently, stroking my cheek and kissing my forehead. "I'll see you in a bit, if you need me, I'll be in the men's store next door, buying some stuff of my own. Just text me and I'll be there. Let's meet at the restaurant for lunch. Don't be nervous, I'm sure there'll be plenty of nice women to show you some stuff." He left and I mustered up the courage to go inside.

It was so pretty. There were pictures of different women wearing bralettes and panties. I started looking through different types of underwear and lingerie until I found a couple of things including cute nightdresses and pretty pyjama sets as well as some babydolls, camisoles and slips. I also picked up a couple of bralettes and panties.

I felt so guilty about buying so many things and spending so much money but decided that he would want me to buy lingerie to wear for him. With that thought still fresh in my mind, I paid for the clothes. I quickly left the store to go and find Ali. I texted him:

Hey baby,
I brought some stuff from VS. Going down in the lift now. Which restaurant would you like me to meet you at?

Two minutes later, a text pinged on my phone:
Hi sweetheart,
Gr8 ;)! Im done 2! I know it's not particularly fancy but how about grabbing a Subway with my beautiful angel? X
Ps: I cannot wait to see what you've brought ;P

I quickly replied back
Yep sounds good :) I'm starving Marvin.
PS: Nope, not until I'm wearing it on our honeymoon :P

I found my way to Subway a mere ten minutes later when I found my husband talking to another woman. She was better looking, dressed all in designer clothes, of a lighter complexion but she was still of a Pakistani Muslim background it would seem. She was tall with a nice figure, able bodied with a pretty face whilst her long luscious hair was bouncing around her back. I was clearly a little bit jealous of her but decided that I trusted my husband. Maybe she was a neighbour, a family friend or relative, a colleague, the wife or girlfriend of a friend. There was many reasonable and innocent explanations as to who she was but there was only one way to find out. I went over there and as soon as I got closer, I heard him telling her to go away and her screaming at him in response. His expression of anger and hate towards her turned to pure agony and embarrassment when he saw me standing there. With one swift movement, the young woman turned on her stiletto heel to face me, her face a clear window of disgust.
