When news of Jamilah Abubakr's death reached the world, it shook.
How couldn't it?
It'd lost one of the gems it had left....A young, cultured philanthropist with as much beauty within, as she had without.
The Khalil household was one of the most affected. With both sons, Jamil and Ayman having to deal with the loss of the girl who'd meant the world to them.
When, two years later, Jamilah Abubakr resurfaced, her death seemingly a scam by her conniving father, Senator Abubakr, she's taken in by the Khalils.
However, things aren't as rosy as they were, and Jamilah has lost a great deal of herself to the accident, mentally.
She's unable to remember much of her former life, and is in for a bumpy ride once the rest of the socialite circle - a bunch of politicians and government officials that are out to damage hers and the Khalil's reputation - discover her secret.
Yahya Khalil, head of the Khalil household, and an important political figure in the country, plans Jamilah's marriage to his sons for her safety.
The question of who to wed is then left; Ayman, her childhood best friend and former crush; or Jamil, the man she'd been close to getting married to.
Without Jamilah's memories, without the knowledge of how she'd once felt towards both of them, what does she do?
Does she make the decision she'd have years ago, before the accident?
Or does she make a different decision this time, ignoring the foreign feelings that grip her whenever she sees him?
You want to know who 'Him' is?
Want to know what her decision is?
Delve into Jamilah's world in 'My baby; My wife'.
'I hate you!' She said, her eyes a shade of blood due to the hatred she had for him and the sting of his belt on her body.
'I know. And you'd be married to me by Friday. So, get ready to break into the bits and pieces your body could ever form!'
Hidayah Abubakar Rimi, a lady basking in the glory of beauty and love. Or so she thought, for the love part, of course. She had hated him for being like a steel bridge between her and Adam, the absolute love of her life. Why won't her mother or her egoistic soldier cousin, in the name of Ahmad Abdulkarim Muhammad, understand that she loved Adam and will do whatever the hell it was that he wanted. He just had to say it. Party? It's a yes. Clubbing? Of course she's in! Or was it to be laid by him? A whistle would do to have her running to him.
She didn't care whether it was a sin, a taboo or that it will get her a beating from a soldier hated by her! But what she had never seen coming was a consequence she knew would break her; heart, body and soul. Being married to Ahmad was a curse and her family were hellbent on seeing her broken self.
Will she break and mend? If Ahmad broke her, which he will, will she ever have the strings to weave her broken pieces to a whole piece? Or...will someone be willing to mend her? Not him, certainly.
