On The Wings Of Dream

Chapter 24:hours to go!

These days were very hectic for me that i skip some lectures.

I was drying my hair when Aisha came to visit. That was on Wednesday.

"Ohh besty you arrived at the right time!"

I said, hugging her.

We sat down together on the bed.

"Yauwa we will go together and give the invitation cards to our secondary school classmates, then go to Abdul, my tailor for the events clothes, then we go to the market to buy silk rosy head gear for my kaamu cloth, then....."

"Hey hey wait! I mean wait! Do you mean we will all do this today? As in...."

Aisha said, raising her brows.

"Of course today. Lemme even get up"

I said as i sprang up and headed to my scattered wardrobe. I grabbed a squeezed Ankara gown and quickly wore it, covered my head and shoulders with a black veil and dragged Aisha out.

Yusuf was patiently waiting outside so we hopped in and drove straight to Fatee's house, a classmate.

Without wasting much time, we dropped the IV and pleaded with her to help me give some of our friends i couldn't dropped by to give.

We then went straight to Abdul's shop, and the clothes were wow 😱!

That day koh, wallah when i reached home i thought i will wake up the next day in the hospital.

The next morning, it was Bilal's call that woke me up. I groaned and picked up with a salam.

"Ya dai? Why are you sounding Like this? Hope you are fine?"

"Yeah its just that am so tired!"

I whined.

"Ohhh sorry? What did you do?"

"I went to give IVs to nearly all the girls in Yola, i went to the market, I went to the tailor's, and i went to check on the event decorators"

"What, babe? Do you want to kill yourself? You could have called me to do all these ai. Sorry"

"Ohhh you know all these ladies stuffs sei a hankali. So how far?"

"Fine. Just missed my baby. Please i want to come see you today"

I smiled, my stomach fluttering.

"You are always welcome my love"

We talked for almost an hour before we were interrupted by ummi's loud calls.

Its now just three days and i will be officially Mrs Bilal. Cant believe its happening!

When my friends that are married were telling me how hectic the preparations were, i thought they were just saying until now that i experienced it.

Wallah nothing is compared to that stress to me.

I came back from school today after branching to the market, bakery and restaurant am gonna order food for the events from.

My legs were very sore and thanks to Bilal for the massage.

I yelped in pain when he pressed right on my ankle.

"Sorry dear. Okay here, just this last time..."

He said, rubbing the massaging ointment on my feet and pressed his thumbs on the center, earning a wail from me.

He leaned my body on his chest, stroking my shampooed hair.
