On The Wings Of Dream

Chapter 38:Meeting ex

Yusrah....

I sighed furiously and palmed my face.

"You know what, just go and do it all over again. And be fast about it!",

I almost yelled at my secretary, throwing the paper in her face, which was full of rubbish she just typed, all typographical errors and all.

"Am so sorry ma".

She said bowing and walked out.

The telephone on the table started ringing. Hissing under my breath, i dropped the pen i was holding and looked up from the file. After the second ring, i picked it up.

"Ma'am, someone named Alhaji Jibrin is here to see you".

"Let him in".

I said and dropped down the phone. Without bringing anything on my mind, i continued going through the files and signing.

The door creaked open and I heard footsteps walking towards me. Still not looking up, i nodded my head towards the chair opposite me, motioning for the person to sit down.

"Hajiya Yusrah, CEO of NANI company, wife of CEO Bilal Aisar of the GRAND SPS!".

Looking up, i saw the face of the man i never thought of seeing again.

"Jboy!".

I muttered, surprised.

"Yes, its me Jibrin".

He still had that flirting smile on his face, and his eyes still shining with mischief.

"I've been looking for you almost everywhere, Yusrah".

I nodded, still not overcoming the shock.

"So how are you doing?".

"Am fine, and you?".

"Am also fine, Alhamdulillah. I heard you have a child, right? So how is the child doing?".

"Oh yeah, Adnan. Well, he is doing fine. And how are your children and wife?".

"Yeah, my wives are doing okay, and my kids also".

He said, chuckling.

"Wives?".

"Yeah, i have three wives, five kids".

"Wow. You're really a big man now".

"Of course i am".

He replied, laughing.

"So what should I offer you?".

"No don't worry about me. So actually, i saw you on TV being interviewed and quickly rushed down here. I really need to apologize for what i did the past years".

"Ah haba! Everything have passed away now. So where do you work now?".

I said, trying to wave away the topic of how he attempted to rape me about five years ago.

"I work as the permanent secretary of the ministry of Finance, Kaduna. One of my wives have given birth so i came to name the baby".

"Oh masha Allah. That is good news".

"Okay i should get going. I have a flight to catch by 2, so...".

"Oh thanks for dropping by. And my regards to your family".

"Inshaa Allah and also my regards to Adnan and Bilal. I will bring my wives to your house whenever i come to Yola again. Warm regards to popsy (Abbu). I remembered when he used to stop us from going out on dates".

I laughed and walked him out to the parking lot, where he parked his Mercedes Benz. Jibrin is really a changed man now, though he still look flirty.

After seeing him drove out, i sighed and walked back into my office, where the huge piles of files waited for me to be signed.

"Adnan why do you have to always make me angry?!".

I yelled at the little boy who was cutting a teddy bear with a knife.

"You can hurt yourself with the knife, you douche!".

"Hey why calling him douche?".

Bilal said, making his way into the kitchen with his coffee mug and dropped it carelessly on the kitchen island.

"Hey Sven, stay out of this!".

He chuckled at how i called him Sven.

"Am not a reindeer, sweetheart".

I ignored him and started mopping the kitchen floor when we heard the doorbell ring.

"I will go check".

I said and made my way out of the kitchen.

"Mom!!!".

I squealed and hugged my mother in law.

"I am getting old, please don't break my weak bones, yawuro!".

Mom teased, calling me by my marriage name.

"Please come in mom. Yaa Bilal mom is here!".

I shouted, calling him by Yaa, like how i used to when any of his family is around.

"Mom sit down let me bring you some refreshments".

Before she could say anything, i rushed into the kitchen, in the process collided with Bilal.

"Glanny!! (Granny).

Adnan squealed and ran to mom and hugged her.

I smiled, placing a carton of exotic juice and a glass tumbler on the tray, placed the food warmer containing pasta and sashayed out of the kitchen.

"Mom how is Dad and the girls?".

Bilal asked, lying on his mom's laps. I wonder when this old man will grow up and behave maturely.

I dropped the tray in front of her on the coffee table and sat on the carpet, near her legs.

"Mom how is everyone doing?".

"Everyone is fine, Yusrah. Mashukhat said she will come to spend her holiday with you guys".

Mom announced, sipping the juice which i poured into the glass.

"Wow i'd be glad if she do".

Mom stayed for two hours, and we chatted happily. I even forgot about the grudge she had held towards me for the past five years. The girl, Zara was married to her paternal cousin, and have given birth last two months.

"OK, i should get going".

"Yaa Bilal wont you drop mom off?".

I said, and he stood up and went into his room to wear something more decent. He came back after some minutes wearing a blue kaftan.

I walked them to his car and dropped a polythene bag beside mom.

"Toh mom thanks for the visit, my warm regards to dad and my sisters, please".

She nodded and smiled to Adnan, who was straddled on my hips.

"Drive safely, yaa Bilal".

I waved at them and went back inside.
