FATE

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

This chapter might come short and not detailed, I have been down with fever that was why I couldn't publish it earlier but it was written, I wanted to make corrections and add more details but couldn't and I can't make you guys wait too long since I promised to post early, I am getting better now maybe I will be able to type soon.

Minal stood outside looking, she  squint and squint trying to make out who was in the black tinted Lexus parked in front of their house, the car doesn't look familiar at all and the little boy who was sent, said they were looking for her. Who could it be? She thought just then the front door was pulled open and a guy kitted in black suit and black shades giving the don't mess with me vibes, he rushed towards the back door open and a lady put her feet out taking her precious time to come out. She watched with curiosity to see who the lady was, when she finally stood up and was in sight, she saw her friend samha looking graceful and beautiful as always. She moved closer after seeing her, expressing her shock!

Wow, baby is this really you?"

"Banza(stupid) ofcourse it's me" Samha answered dismissing the bodyguard who opened the door for her.

"How did you get this car, a driver and even a freaking bodyguard , last time I checked you were wallowing in self pity because fahad left you and then this? I am impressed but wait are you back with fahad?"she said in something like awe but deep down she was burning with jealousy.

She rolled her eyes, shaking her head left and right while blowing her bubble gum expertly. " have you forgotten, who i am? Look at me" she said gesturing to her body, she wore fitted black tights paired with a black tank top with a blue kimono and aldo covers to complete the look. She looked at her just like she suggested and then she continued " I have the body and looks to get anyone I want, I loved fahad yes but he is dead to me now and you know what? I can have any guy I want at a drop of a pin" she said snapping her fingers in a dramatic way.

Her friend rolled her eyes at the sheer arrogance of Samha though behind her back, she wouldn't want to be on samha's bad side when money is rolling because she wouldn't get anything at the end but if she play her cards right, she will most definitely benefit from the money because Samha is a very generous person when she wants to be.

"La babe I know, who doesn't? Only a fool would deny that, just look at you , full option fully loaded" she said laughing.

"Ofcourse bitch, now go grab your stuff we have lots of places to be because I am getting MARRIED SOOOON!!!" She shouted excitedly

"Married?" She asked confused while Samha nodded vigorously grinning ear to ear.

"Yup, you heard right. I am getting married to Nabeel sultan" she said as if it wasn't a big deal and giving her time to register what she said.

She blinked and blinked again waiting for her to start laughing and say I am kidding because Samha and marriage cant be mentioned in the same sentence but she didn't. " you are really serious" she stated looking at her " you mean Nabeel sultan who was on Forbes  cover August issue? As in Nabeel sultan one of Nigeria's most influential bachelors?" She asked in a rush stepping closer to Samha maybe she will be able to read the truth from her face.

She gave a rich arrogant laugh and said" yes, and right now you are wasting my time because we have lots of things to do for the wedding if you are lucky, I would give you the status of my maid of honor. Now get your stuff from the house and meet me in the car" she said turning to the car signaling for her bodyguard to open the door for her.

Minal ran into her house and  came out with her veil in hand and her handbag, her mind still processing the information she got from Samha.

"The wedding is happening in less than 2weeks so we have lots of things to do, I hope your passport is up to date because we would be traveling to Dubai to get my bridal fabrics" Samha said like it is a normal thing to fly out of Nigeria.

"Really?" She asked in disbelief

"Uh huh" she said nodding her head.

Two days later they flew out of the country, samha and two of her friends with samha's mom and her junior sister Zeenat. They shopped for some of the bridal garments and also bridesmaids all on the groom who gave them his card. They had lots of fun and did a lot of shopping, when they got back the groom had already employed the best wedding planners in nigeria, Samha plans on having a big and loud wedding with almost five events before the big day.

The wedding came, bridal shower was done is style and class. Custom made bathing rope with their names written on them, English tea settings with white and floral background. They had lots of phone and snapped pictures, a hashtag was created for the wedding #SandS2018 and an Instagram page opened especially for the wedding, it was hyped on all platforms. Everyone talked about the wedding, some who attended didn't waste time in sharing their pictures and experience.

The next day was luncheon, then friend'seve , kamu and finally the wedding Fatiha was done on Saturday and a dinner in the night.

Bright and early Sunday morning the bride and the groom flew to Maldives for their honeymoon. For a week they enjoyed their honeymoon, sultan pampered and showered her with attention and so much love that she couldn't help but fall helplessly in love with him. They wined and dined , went surfing, beach walks, tour around and lots more but reality check came early she woke up around 12noon on Saturday morning with a yawn, she stretched and tried to feel up her husband on the other side but he wasn't there, the bed was empty. Strange, he is always around when she wakes up, maybe he is in the bathroom. She went round their ensuite but he was nowhere in site. She shrugged and went to take her bath when she got out there was a knock on their door, she opened the door and met sultan's head of security who came with them here. He greeted her and presented two hefty looking men in dark suits as her security details and the boss's orders her not to go anywhere without them. He also told her the boss have left earlier this morning and gave a massage that she could stay for a week more if she wants to because he had things to do.

She found that wired, why didn't he call her to tell her or just woke her up to say goodbye? What was important to leave your wife halfway through your honeymoon? She felt disappointed and bad but decided to get enjoy the rest of her stay though it would be lonely. She will wait for his call later maybe he would explain why he suddenly left.

Unfortunately that call never came!
