Beautiful and Broken

CHAPTER FIFTEEN

'Don't promise tonight without tomorrow too'

YUSUF'S POV

Here I am with the love of my life and I can't stop smiling just by mere looking at her. The feeling is just amazing. Yesterday night was amazing. We spent the night talking about our lives and making promises we weren't going to break no matter what. We've left our past and this was going to be a new beginning, a new chapter in our lives. And for the first time in a long time I slept happily feeling the warmth and embracing the love of my life.

"Wake up babe" I whispered to her

"Mmmm" she made a sound but with her eyes still closed

"It's time for subhi. Don't let shaytan weigh you down" I said holding her hands and shaking them. I knew she was so tired.

"Alright. Just five more minutes" her eyes were still closed

"Time for prayer waits for no one babe" I said gently dragging her out of bed until we were both standing on our feets before dropping a light kiss on her forehead. "I love you, now let's go and perform ablution"

I led us and the feeling was just right. Praying with your wife, I bet you it was one of the best feelings. We said our du'as and read the holy Qur'an.

I had this habit of eating after subhi before going back to bed, that's if I'm not going to work. I just had to eat something if not I'll wake up extremely hungry if not dead.

"Babe" I called her

"Yess" she answered raising her head from my lap

"Let's go and find something to eat in the kitchen. I'm hungry"

"Nooo! I'm sleepy"

"But I'm hungry"

"But I'm sleepy"

"Please!" I pleaded

She kept mumm

I carried her in a bridal style and headed straight to the kitchen ignoring her banter and whining. I dropped her on the kitchen counter and she refused to open her eyes.

"Open your eyes hayati" I said laughing at her

"Leave me alone" she said making a cute face.

Oh My God! I literally screamed in my head. I swear I just love my wife.

I planted a kiss on her lips and she opened her eyes wide open.

"I love you too" I said to her and left for the fridge to get yoghurt leaving her in complete shock.

"Care for some?" I wiggled my eyebrows and passed her a cup of yoghurt and 4 pieces of All butter shortbread on a side plate.

"You just want to make me fat" she said sipping her yoghurt

"I'll love you no matter what you look like"

"Even when I'm fat?" She asked

"Yes"

"Even when my legs don't walk like they do now?"
