"There are a lot of things you don't know about me." She raised her eyebrows. "I love fish, I catch cold very easily, I dislike pets and I like you." She stopped eating and looked at him wide-eyed. "What?" She started coughing. "Sorry." He passed her a tumbler of water and she gulped it down swiftly, her hands shaking as she dropped the cup on the table and looked up at him completely out of words. He smiled and sat back on his chair. "Yes Maryam, I have loved you for a long time, but I didn't realize it until now, and holding it is not something I can do anymore." "I...I...ya Muhammad..." she started but he cut her off, "you don't have to answer right now, just think about it. I don't want to force anything on you, I'll accept whatever decision you make." He smiled and went back to eating. She sat there awkwardly and couldn't even eat. She couldn't believe what he had just told her. She is Maryam Abubakar He is Muhammad Abduljabbar And this is their story😉❤️

To the world he was a beast but for her he would do anything. He could have the world but all he wanted was her. They say the things we want most are the things we can't have.

Fateema:She was a sweet, jovial and highly intelligent young lady until the nightmare that changed her life & turned her into a complete shadow of her former self.She became quiet, anti-social, dull & boring. She never laughs & smiles only occasionally. Her plans; Never be tied in bondage of marriage to any color-changing chameleon in form of a man! Mahmud; He's Fateema's identical twin brother. A born introvert, he's quiet and reserved by nature.He's cynical, mysterious and cocky.His friends refer to him as a tortoise with a large impenetrable shell into which he retreats and resurfaces only when he deems fit.In short, he's an enigma, nobody understands him.Well,maybe with the exception of just one person..... Walida:She's the true lady of the house. She's so sweet, loving & friendly.

When love speaks, when love yearns for attention, when it crushes and intends to erupt out of the beholder's heart; Nothing could stop it, it looks onto nothing. Status seems just a name to it, age seems just a number. It knows no bound, it knows no difference. She was just a poor lady, from a wrecked background. He was a pompous guy, from an affluent background. She needed money for her WAEC examination. He needed a maid, to take care of his house. He hired her. She started working in his house. Destiny unleashed a predicament between them. It bounds them hitched. ____ What would it be? What has destiny unleashed upon their lives? It would be a love, heartbreak, and romantic roller coster ride. #Ayshatou.
