Ahmad came out from his warm relaxing shower dripping wet with his white towel wrapped around his waist down to his knees and another short but cute white towel rolled around his neck,he moved to the main dressing mirror in his dressing room,looked through the mirror which showed the full view of Ahmad,he smiled and said to himself; "Amaani you're very lucky,hope you'll enjoy your husband to be because you're lucky both in character and outer beauty",he winked at himself through the mirror and bit his lower lips,he patted his beard which was dripping wet,wiped it with the cute towel which was rolled around his neck,after drying up he opened his closet to choose something comfortable to wear,he chose a navy blue sweatpants and a white T-shirt to wear,he looked fresh and clean.

Ahmad walked to where he left his mother in the sitting room and found her still sitting there watching television but was absent-minded,so he sat beside her and said; Hello Mama, what's up?? Worrying over little thing?? Nah you should stop, because it's nothing to worry about because it'll make you happy,it's what you've been waiting for for a long time. Mama sighed and said; Okay son,I can't wait for the good news,your food is right here,she pointed at the tray on the center table and Ahmad stood up in order to serve himself which he did because he's hungry. He was midway taking the food when his phone started ringing,the caller ID showed "Baby yum🌹❤️" he smiled before picking the call, hello Yummy boo,he said,Hey sweet yum,how are you doing? How was your day, Mama and work? She asked, everything is okay and Mama is right beside me,he added. Amaani was shy for a moment so she kept quiet before she added; my regards please and Ahmad muttered inshaALLAH baby. They said goodbye before she suggested that he should continue eating while she hangs up.

Mama was happy to hear that it was Amaani and she was like; Amaani my dear,how is she doing? It's been long since I heard from her? Extend my greetings to her when you guys talk again,okay Mama, Ahmad answered.

Mama and Ahmad talked so much about Amaani,his work and many things beside that,from Mama's conversation, Ahmad noticed the love Mama has for Amaani now,he was happy that his mum is a changed person but her only fault is the bad friends that she's still keeping,how he wished he could separate them in any way!!  They are sticked together that only death could do them apart. Suddenly,a thought flipped the other,he remembered his mother's friend and his mum's agreement in joining Ahmad and her daughter,he remembered that it was a promise between his mum and Hajiya Rabi which must be fulfilled but what if the children doesn't want it anymore? Ahmad doesn't want it but what about the girl? Ahmad kept remembering things and started to pray in his mind that he prays nothing will come between their love life with Amaani. Ahmad thought that maybe it was the thing that has been disturbing Mama since,so he cleared his throat and asked his mum where Hajiya Salma was,and out of shock, Mama stammered; Sh sh she is fine,she's now in Abuja with her family,her husband got transferred there. Ahmad noticed his mum's situation so he sighed and said; Mama is anything wrong with you? No my son, just some thoughts about the past. Ahmad moved closer and patted his mum at the back and said; mind sharing them with me? Mama smirked and said; since you insist. She told him how they made an agreement in joining Ahmad and Hajiya Salma's daughter in marriage,she told him how she regret following bad friends since from the beginning even though Hajiya Salma isn't a bad person that's the reason why they agreed on joining their children in marriage, Ihsan is well behaved and disciplined,she told him that she doesn't know how to get rid of her other bad friends, Ahmad saw the pain in his mum's eye,so he moved closer to her,hugged her by the side and said in consolation; Mama marriage is not forced but promises must be fulfilled,I heard you and I know what you're going through,I can feel your type of pain,mama, you can get rid of your friends by showing them you're no more interested in the friendship not in a way that will hurt them but in a matured way whereby you stop contacting them, show them you're not interested,if possible include that Baba doesn't want you with friends anymore,look Mama, whatever is destined to be will be and when I say promises must be fulfilled, I mean I can still make the other girl my wife,not because I love her but because you two showed her that she has someone to get married to when it's time and maybe because of this,she doesn't talk or give chance to anyone but Mama,what about Amaani,what about the big step I'm going to talk about yo you guys tonight?what do I say to her? How do we start this? I'm almost down but I'll never reach the floor,Ahmad looked up and praised; Allah you are the all-seer and you're with us, please tackle this situation for us!! Amaani I love you and Ihsan I want to fulfill our parent's promises by making them happy!! Wait Mama! Where do they live in Abuja? Maitama, Mama answered. A thought came to Ahmad's mind which made him stop mid-sentence,he asked Mama if Ihsan was the so called Ihsan Hamid,the daughter of the P.A to the president, mama answered yes and she asked him if he has ever approached Ihsan,Ahmad told her that there was a time he went to Abuja for a conference,in the evening he went to a restaurant to have supper where he met Ihsan he fell in love with her at first sight and he stood up and went to where she was sitting in order to talk to her,he told him her how he feels about her but before he could finish,she raised her hands up in order to stop him and said; hey young man! Stop there, I heard you! I'm sorry but I'm taken already!! He was down and stood up to leave,he turned and looked at the black beauty Ihsan and said; destiny might join us in the future young lady,if we are destined to be we'll be . Ahmad sighed and continued narrating the story to mama; I got back to my seat and mourned the love and beauty I've lost all at once,her eyes behold beauty!! It was then that I heard someone at my back saying, Ihsan Hamid,she's the daughter to the P.A to the president,she doesn't give anyone a chance, she keeps saying she's taken yet we haven't seen her with anyone!! From that time after hearing the guys conversation,I removed meeting or getting Ihsan from my mind since I heard what other people are saying, that is when I gave my heart a chance to fall in love with someone who happens to be my dear Amaani.
