Loving Khair

27; Finally His

A a d i l

Finally after all the stressful events being held, here I am sitting in a mosque with the Imaam announcing that Khairiyah is now lawfully my wife, A round of AllahuAkbars went and I smiled fishing for my phone in my pocket

A: Alhamdullilah, you are now my Mrs, I can't wait to see you

"Anty khairi, someone is calling you" Humaira pouted and passed me the phone, she was playing some dress up game she downloaded and calls have been coming interrupting her

"Mrs Aadil, You better get ready because the makeup artist is coming and the groom will be here for pictures in like an hour and a half" Hafeeza entered and I smiled

It was an unknown number, probably a well wisher so I didn't bother

About forty minutes later my make up was done and I was all dressed up in a baby pink gown which was simple yet elegant

"He's here, and he looks 'yummy', MashaAllah khair your husband is so wow" Saada exclaimed and I said a small dua in my mind and gave her a small smile

I felt camera flashes blind me as I descended the staircase,George Okoro stood there with a big smile on his face as he snapped me

In the sea of friends and family I spotted him, looking like a snack in a cream colored Babban Riga and a coffee Zanna Bukar perched on his head, his sideburns on display making him look 10x hotter

He winked at me and I felt the familiar heat in my neck making me look down at my shoes "Lallai Ango you caught a big fish kenan" George teases and the males all chuckled

They gave us space as they did their stuff, putting us in different positions

After the photoshoot i felt a tug on my arm as Aadil pulled me to him lowering his lips to my ear "you are beautiful, so beautiful Mrs Aadil" his lips lightly brushed my lobe making my stomach drop

We heard a click then a flash "perfect, this is my favorite" George smiled as he looked at his camera "let me see" Nooriyah peeped and he moved it away "till I'm done editing" he smirked and she rolled her eyes

"Do you take bribes" she whispered loudly and he let out a loud laugh "Nigerians" he shook his head

My face had very light make up and I was dressed in a purple and green Ankara with other colors sowed in a skirt and blouse then finally a black and silver Alkaybba which was a gift from HRH Sanusi Lamido who is Abbas friend

We first went to my in-Laws house and now here I am sitting on the bed bawling my eyes out as Anty hadiza and ya fadila advised me even after all the scolding I got earlier

They left after some time and nooriyah, hamrah, binta and fauziya stayed back till Aadil arrives

"He's here" they squealed as hamrah wiped my face with tissue and fauziya dabbed a little powder

"Oh! You don't want to stop crying bah, see how you're soiling your makeup by cleaning cleaning the tears, as if it is us that begged you to get married" binta rolled her eyes "sai ya ganki ya gudu" she muttered to herself

"You self you're of no use" hamrah hit her lap and she chuckled hugging me "I'm just joking, you know, now please stop crying, me I heard brides that cry on their wedding nights make the husband get co wives ooh"

"Innalillahi binta shut up" nooriyah laughed as she did the job of watching when they enter and all

"They are here, that's our cue" nooriyah waved and hamrah and co stood up "we'll be right back" she kissed my forehead and I rolled my tears eyes nodding

"Please do"

They went out and even closed the door, I heard their commotion but didn't bother later they entered the room smiling as binta and hamrah high fived

"Thank god it's only four of us, so we just got 700,000 for the Sayan baki"

"Now stand up to go downstairs to see his friends and all then we'll bring you back upstairs and take our leave" hamrah explained and I nodded

"Amarya ansha Kamshi" Jamil grinned as we entered the parlor, he is Aadils closest friend

We exchanged pleasantries and all, and as Hamrah said they took me back upstairs and took their leave

"Bye khair, we love you" they waved and hugged me one last time

I heard a gentle knock on the door and a deep Salam followed as he entered in all glory looking ever so handsome in a white Babban Riga with gold embroidery

I answered, my voice coming out lower than it was supposed to

"Baby don't cry, didn't you want to marry me?" He asked as he cupped my face and I nodded more tears pouring out as he hugged me to his chest cradling me, now I really felt like his baby

He waited till my sobs died down before he spoke "you should get out of this heavy clothes and freshen up" he tilted my face to look at him with his index on my chin as he placed a soft kiss on my forehead

I nodded and he smiled "I'll go to the other room to freshen up then we'll pray Isha, right?" I nodded and he stood up helping me off the bed

I bit my lip as he disappeared into the closet, I moved after he left the room, removing my clothes I closed the lid of the toilet and say down

You're married to the man you love, why are you crying like this abii you want to scare him away, ai you heard what binta said about second wives, continue being formal

I was lost in my thoughts when I heard a knock "khair, you in there?" He asked and my eyes widened, my stupid self has been in there since thinking about God know what and he's already done

I quickly performed ablution leaving the bath till after we prayed, I stood by the toilet door and called out

"Aadil! Please pass me the hijab on the bed" i stretched my hand through the small gap i opened the door

"Thank you" I collected it and wore it over my bra and skirt

He didn't say anything as he laid the prayer mats and started the prayer, his Qira'a is mashaAllah, something I could listen to all day

When we finished praying he patted the space beside him as he pulled me to him muttering duas

"I'm coming" I said after we finished, I was starting to loosen up

After my relaxing bath which took about twenty minutes, wrapping the fluffy red robe around me which stopped above my knees, I moved to the mirror

My hair was done in tiny braids done in two-step, checking out my skin and looking at my legs, it was glowing

Finally having enough of me I stepped out to be met with my husband comfortably sitting on a lone couch as he flipped through channels

His eyes dropped from my face to my toes as his gaze followed the same trail again muttering something to himself he stood up

I bit my lip in nervousness and he used his thumb to take out my lip from between my teeth "you drive me crazy Amica"
