ABUJA, NIGERIA.       "Even if I tell you I want you for myself?" The question hang in the air rendering Kauthar speechless for a minute there. She didn't know whether her head is moving around or she was too tired after so many meetings in the office and started hearing things. Yes, that should definitely be the thing that is messing with her brain big time.Mujaheed on the other hand only stared at her, his face not displaying any emotion watching as she crease her brows and release them after thinking she's thought about the solution to all her problems. He almost laughed when she looked relieve as if what he said is only her imagination. He won't back out though, not when the words were already out of his lips and she has reacted to it too. This is his chance to ask for her hand in marriage and if she doesn't agree, he shall go to her father and ask for it."What did

ABUJA, NIGERIA.        "Are you sure, Amir? I don't know why I feel like you will be committing such grievous sin getting married to me. I mean, you should be doing what guys your age are doing right now than becoming a father at early stage and also a husband. At twenty one, you should focus on building your future. Have girlfriends like your friends are doing." Bushra is still afraid of what Amir had said so her heart isn't exactly settled with the decision.Don't get her wrong, she really likes Amir a lot and could tolerate him more than she does all her suitors but then again, he is also the youngest and still have a lot to experience. She is hundred percent sure he never planned on getting married anytime soon had it not being for her dead husband, his brother, he wouldn't have thought about marriage at such a young age. And one thing she knew about Amir

ABUJA, NIGERIA.        "Oh, such joyful news!" Gigi cheered her frail wrinkly hands moving up in front of her in joy. She hasn't heard any great news in a while and this really worth sharing sweets to the less privileged to."I know right. I am glad Amani accepted the boy, it would've yawed to something terrible. The love he has for her is irrevocable, Gigi. I feel like even Mika'il didn't love her the way Amir is doing right now, it looks deep just from the way he talks about her. I knew he would've fought with me had I turn down his offer." He shook his head recalling what happened the night before in the dining room. He is proud of his son for taking such step, not everyone his age could do this even for love."That is the spirit I want because my Bushra deserves that and more. She stood strong after all Mika'il did, she is worth everything Amir is going t

ABUJA, NIGERIA.Down inside a luxurious bathtub is another bride of the day meant to be taking a bath as people are waiting for her outside. She has her head tucked in between her knees, they were brought up to her naked chest, lost in thought. Inside the milk scented water, her thought spiraled down the lane of how she came to this. Forgetting to tie her hair so as to not get it wet, it was too late for that as the hairs were soaked wet when she realised what she has done.Kauthar could only think about how life came to that. Just months ago, she was mourning her mother's death afterwards, it was her brothers and again some months interval, her fiancée is reported dead after going MIA. In all those things, she didn't lose her head or emotional focus only when the news about her marria

ABUJA, NIGERIA.Bushra was pushed back to her room to change into the white as her husband is about to arrive and they need to take photos with her wearing the whites. She gulped, his words echoing through her head because if there is anything she's felt different that day, being her wedding day, it is the fact that Amir's words sounds unusual. Like the marriage between them has changed things around, she is one to tell. His voice was deeper, filled with so many intense emotions she didn't want to dwell on for they will take her where her mind shouldn't think about going.In a few minutes, she got dressed into her own white dress which fitted her to perfection. She sew it, she knows the nooks and cranny of her body so she let it all out through the clothes. It is also fitted, enough f
