Marriage Before Love

32

After dinner, Simonique left while Maliky and I retreated to bed. No one knows that Maliky and I are in separate rooms but I like it that way.

I was having difficulty sleeping, so I warmed some milk, drank and went back to bed. Still, I couldn't sleep. I got up out of bed and went to Maliky's room then I woke him from his slumber.

"What is it Zanya" he asked, fighting to keep his eyes open

"I can't sleep" I said playing with my fingers and he pats the bed beside him, telling me to lie with him.

I laid on my side with my back to him and he wrapped his arm around me. He rubbed my belly in a soothing manner an I sighed at the comfort it brought me. I soon fell asleep with Maliky whispering sweet nothing into my ear.

Morning came and I woke up alone in bed. The sweet smell of bacon and eggs filled my nostrils and I made my way to the kitchen to see who was cooking. There he stood, shirtless flipping the egg.

"I'm due soon and we haven't went shopping at all" I said rubbing my bum.

"We'll go after you eat" he said then turned off the stove and put everything in front of me.

I ate about three eggs, three waffles and five bacon . Honestly, it did nothing to hold me, so Maliky ended up making pancakes. And out of eight, I ate six and a half.

I then took a warm shower and we left for target as he promised. We stopped in the baby section, filling up two cards me with what I want and him with what he wants.

As I was looking at some of the strollers, I bumped into someone and immediately apologized. Unfortunately her boyfriend wasn't having it and pushed me. Maliky, who was looking at car seats, somehow saw what happened and attacked the guy.
