*Layla's P.O.V*
"Come on,tell me!" Zanny says pulling my arm.
"Stop it,Zee" I whisper lightly.
"Then tell me what happened? How was it?" She pouts.
I stare at her sternly then smile. "Okay it was good..."
"Good? How good?" She argues on.
"Ohh...stop it,Zee. I say it was good...very good." I blush. I can't believe I am discussing my sexual relation with Zanny. She just kept poking and I just couldn't tell her no.
We are in her car now,going shopping. I'm resuming back to work tomorrow and I need new clothes that fits my new status.
I'm so happy because I'm finally living the life get I've always wanted,I can't wait to see my mom and tell her all about it.
My husband is so caring and I couldn't ask for more.
"Hmmmn,what are you thinking about?"Zanny inquires.
I smile sheepishly. " maybe I'm reliving that night" I tease her.
"Woo..Lee! I wonder how wonderful it was" she comments winking.
We both laugh out loud. "That's just for me to know" I reply.
"Yes of course, so what are you buying?"
"Everything!"

After shopping, I went over to my mom's place. I knock and my aunt opened the door.
"Ooh...Aunt Zarah!!" I run over to hug her. She huggs me back tightly.
"Oh...Lee. I miss you so much! How have you been?"
"I'm fine...aunt Zarah. How is your shop?"
"It's good oo,my dear" she looks at me with scrutiny.
"Okay...!" I release her and walk inside the house.
"So how is marriage life? Your husband?" She asks coming after me.
"Marriage life is sweet o,and Javier is fine" I reply as I sit on the sofa.
"I can see...so you're now covering up?" She smiles at me.
I blushes. "I figure my husband would like that"
I feel so good doing something for Javier...he and I have been praying together and I like it. Now I feel like I am an important part of his life. Today I'm wearing a long fitted red gown and I tied a golden turban on my head. I think I look  good this way. Even Zanny complimented it.
"That's good... Lee. You have started submitting to him" aunt Zarah says curtly.
I turn to look at her."aunty what do you mean by that?"
She rollls her eyes. "I mean you are now doing whatever your husband asks"
I shake my head. "Jay didn't ask me to do it...I did it because i felt like it. Javier is not controlling me if that is what you meant!" I say in a rush.
I can't believe aunt Zarah is saying this..Javier is not like her Ex husband. Javier is a different man..good and kind.
She smiles warily. "Chill,Lee. I'm just joking with you. Just be careful so you don't become his shadow".
I glare at her. She's doing this intentionally to piss me off but I won't let it get to me. I stand up and walk to my mom's room upstairs.
I knock lightly on her door.
"who is there?" She asks.
"It's your baybii daughter" I answer.
"Layla!!! Is it you?" She yells and I could hear her rushing to open the door.
She hugs me tightly and I could feel her tears on my dress.
"Mom!!" I whine.
She releases me,hold my hand and we walk inside.
"Mom,why are you crying?" I ask softly.
"I miss you my Angel... So very much!" She replies,wiping off her tears.
"Ooh...Mummy. I miss you too...much much more. Now I feel like crying too" I say,my heart breaking.
"No...don't cry baby...I love you" she says touching my cheek.
"I love you,mom" I reply.
"So how is Javier?" She asks,holding my hand.
"He is fine...sent his regards."
She nods..."so how are you doing? I hope things are the way you wanted?" She asks looking deep into my eyes.
I smile widely. "Yes,Mom..I am so happy with him...it is better than I imagine"
She smiles too. "Ooh,Thank God. I was really worried about you but seeing you now,I'm rest assured you are fine. You look so good" she eyes me.
I giggle. "Yes mom...marriage life totally fits me"
She laughs out loud. "So when should I be expecting my grandbaby?"
I blush..."Mom!!!"
"I'm serious,Layla. I'm sure you guys are already planning that!" She winks at me.
I snicker. "No...Mom. I'm not ready for a baby yet"
She laughs. "What? You better be because I'm sure your husband is!"
"No,Javier is not." I say confidently.
"He told you that?" My mom asks.
"No...but I know him. He wants us to enjoy before babies come along" I reply her.
She pouts her mouth, nodding. "Okay oo,Mrs Sheraz." She draws her mouth into a thin line and I chuckle.
We chat for an hour before we enter the kitchen to prepare dinner.
I check the time after cooking, its 6:30pm already. I have to head home before Javier comes back.
I pack dinner for us, thank God I don't have to cook when I get home.
"Mom,aunt zarah.I'm leaving!" I call out to them.
"Oh darling! Can't you spend the night here?" My mom whines.
I pick up my purse. "No,Mom. I didn't tell Javier about that. Maybe another time"
"Okay dear.." She escorts me out.
"Bye Lee!" Aunt Zarah says.
"Bye...Aunty" I answer back.
"Bye, Sweetheart. Drive carefully!" Mom advises before I leave.
"Okay mom,bye."
"Alright...my regards to your hubby"
I smile at them before driving off.
