MINE

Chapter 28

It was exactly a month since Layla and Muhammad came back from their honeymoon. Layla started her NYSC the week before. They only get time In the night or during weekends.

Today was weekend, they were all free and had nothing to do. So they decided to watch 'everything everything' even though Muhammad groused about how boring and childish the movie is but Layla claimed that it was so nice, so he simply let go.

She made lasagna as lunch for them and raspberry mojito. She cut the lasagna and put it on plate each for them and put it in the microwave for some time. She sat comfortably on the kitchen island that was in the middle of the kitchen. The kitchen happens to be Layla's favorite place in the house or at least one of her favorites.

The microwave pinged notifying that the lasagna was done. She put the plates on a tray and placed the drinks and headed back to the living room, where she left her husband watching

"Have I ever told you that you're a great cook, it smells and tastes amazing." Muhammad chirped once his eyes landed on the tray she was holding

"You haven't even tried it yet you're saying it tastes good." She said with a raised brow. "And yes, gazillion times." She winked and played the movie. They were Half way through their meal when they heard the door bell

"Are you expecting a guest?" She asked him. Their house has been a little busy with guests since they came back from the honeymoon but nobody called her today to inform her that they are visiting.

"No, are you?" He asked

She shook her head no. "Ben bir bakayım." She said in Turkish(she tends to do that) and picked her long hijab since she was only wearing yoga pants shorts and a tee while her hair was uncovered. She opened the door and immediately rolled her eyes and hiss when she saw who it was

"Who's at the door?" Muhammad asked from the parlor.

"Norah!" She replied

"Oh okay"

"Hello ya Layla, it's as if you're not happy to see me." Said Norah feigning hurt. "And by the way I'm not here to see you, I'm here for my brother." She added making her way to the living room.

Layla rolled her eyes and followed her sister to the living room and sat next to her husband. "Ya Muhammad your wife is not nice wallahi"

"What did she do to you, Norah?" He asked, a small smile playing on his lips.

"When she opened the door she hissed and rolled her eyes"

"Babe, why did you do that to my little sister" He asked his wife

"You really want me to answer that?" Layla asked.

Layla has been bugging Norah to come to her house for the past weeks but she kept giving her silly excuses. And Norah finally decided to appear at her doorstep today when she didn't need her.

"Since when did I tell you to come?" She asked her sister. "It's today that you're coming when I have my husband"

"Kaii ya Layla I'm sorry, it was Mammy that won't allow me to come fah, it's totally not my fault" Norah said. "And I actually came to bring you Ibty's asheobi"

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that Ibty is getting married to her cousin Ahmad. And also Niimah to one of Muhammad's friends Huzaifa Bobbo.
Ni'imah's wedding is coming first then ibtys. Layla was so happy that her best friends are getting married.

She collected the asheobi from her sister and showed her husband. "Babe, will this color look good on me?"

He looked up from his phone. "It'll look great on you." He said pecking her cheek
