ANALI'S POV
It's been days since Abhi and ya Abdallah visited, and to say I'm happy will be an understatement, this is the happiest I have been in almost a year, God, everyone is happy.
I quickly put on my hijab, I'm running late today, due to waking up late, after putting on my slippers, I poked my head into Ammi's room.
"Bye ammi, I'm almost late bye", I said quickly pecking her cheeks.
"Good luck anal, take care, come home early, don't stay out late, I love you", ammi said her usual warning but anali is already out, she still heard her tho."Good morning latecomer", Sarah said with a smile as anali entered the restaurant, anali shook her head.
"I overslept Sarah and for your information, I'm just fifteen mins late", she replied in a hurry as she hangs her bag, without removing her abaya, she put on her apron and get to work because the place looks quite busy.
"That man over there has been asking of you since he entered, do you perhaps know him, he is steaming HOT", Sarah said eyeing a table.
Anali lifted her long eyelashes from what she was doing and look in the direction Sarah was looking at, her eyes lit up.
"Yes I know him, he ask for me?", she asked excitedly.
Sarah nodded throwing her an accused look, "how do you know him, he looks super-rich", she inquired.Anali pushed her mouth naturally, "why are you asking, you think I will lie to you, I know him somewhere", she replied her eyes drifting back to what she was doing.
Sarah decided to mind her own business as anali sort things out.
"And look who decides to show up one hour after work started, what a lazy worker, if I were your manager, I will fire you without second thoughts, but nobody fire pretty ladies, do they", Imran popped out of nowhere which startled anal a bit.
She smiled at his joke, "no good manager will fire their employee for being fifteen mins late, maybe a query or warning", she retorted still smiling.
Imran giggle before he feigned hurt by placing his hands on the left side of his chest.
"Are you saying that I am a bad manager analll", he dragged her name, anali which eyes were fixed on the customers waiting behind Imran.
"Your words not mine, sir, now can you excuse me I have customers to attend to, I will get back to you as soon as I can", Imran nodded and move back to the table he was sitting down before.
After about 30mins of attending to customers, the counter was free, anali saved the last entry before looking at Imran.
He was looking at something on his phone so did not notice her coming.
"Ain't you suppose to be in the office by now, it's already 8:45", she said getting his attention off his phone.
He kept the phone aside and look up at her, "Ahm yeah, but I'm waiting.....", before he could land the doorbell jingle caused their heads to snap towards it.He had the kind of face that stopped you in your tracks. I guess he must get used to that, the sudden pause in a person's natural expression when they looked his way followed by overcompensating with a nonchalant gaze and a weak smile. It didn't help that he was so modest with it.
His aura dominates the whole restaurant, every eye in the room turn to him.
He gently removed his sunglasses and slowly scanned the restaurant and his eyes fell right into anali's.
The restaurant was now quiet, all eyes on NAIM, girls with dreamy eyes followed his gaze to anal, they eyed her enviously.
Anali was the first to break the contact, to say she wasn't affected by his eyes still on her will be a big fat lie.
She gave Imran a fake smile, " I have to go back to work, see you another day", she said and disappeared before Imran could say anything.
Naim finally reached Imran's table he gave the way anal followed one last look before he settled down.
"You sent my friend away with your scary eyes, have anyone ever told you how scary your intense look is", Imran complained.
Naim did not say anything rather sip the coffee that was in front of Imran.
"Call them and tell them the meeting is cancelled, I have something else to attend to", naim said in authority.
Imran's mouth drop instantly, "what!!!", he exclaimed naim raised an eyebrow in question.
"Are you high, they are almost here, they are five mins away and you are telling me to cancel it, I won't, you go and attend to your business while I attend the meeting", Imran said a little bit angry.
Naim look at him, " I said. cancel. the . meeting, I'm the boss and you will as I say", he said through gritted teeth.
"Now", he finalized before he gracefully walk out of the restaurant.
Imran cursed under his breath, he hates Naim's guts, "son of a bitch", he said taking his phone to cancel the meeting.+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+•+

NAIM's P.O.V
NNAMDI AZIKWE INTN'l AIRPORT
Naim keeps checking his wristwatch every now and then restlessly.
"Sir, I don't think this is the flight she boarded, because the Air France landed twenty mins ago and she.......", the driver's ranting stopped when he saw the deadly glare naim shot him.
His eyes averted from his watch to the exit of the international arrivals block.
And he smile, a very genuine one, from the door a beautiful hot ebony young lady emerged.
Her lips curled up in a smile when she sighted naim, he gently wave and she waved back excitedly and increase her pace towards him.
She crash into him the moment she was in front of him, naim was a bit caught off guard, he smile awkwardly and detach her from his body.
"ALAYNA, how many million times am I going to tell you to stop hugging me like this and look at your dressing aren't you a Muslim, when will you grow up", Alayna pouted sliding her hands into Naim's masculine own.
"Sweetheart I'm too tired to listen to any of your preaches now, can you please get me home then you can continue when I have eaten", she said sitting in the back seat of the car and dragging naim along, he shook his head and sat down.
She smiled and link their hands together, "you don't know how much I miss you", she confesses her free hand travelling to his face.
Naim hisses and removes his hand from hers, "Now listen to me, Alayna you are now in Nigeria, not Paris, at least for the sake of your culture you need to start being modest, no touching non-Muharram, no dressing indecently, see, they are so easy to do, if not we will both go our separate ways", naim warned sternly
Alayna pouted but decided to keep her mouth shut because the last thing she wants now is to fight with naim.Hello peeps, after a veryyy long time a new update is finally up.
