BLOOD. . .
Nana could see from the corner of her eye as Hidaya tried her very best to get her husband's attention as her and Maaysa busied their sleeves in the kitchen. She felt enormous happiness when he turned her down and walk straight to their mini living room -as they like to call it- with Khumais in his arms clinging to his neck as he suck on his thumb. He sent a wink her way, letting her know that he knew she was looking at him and he knew she's jealous, there is no way she could hide it from him again. She's jealous and he knew that.
She blushed.
Not because she's afraid of conceding it herself, but she feels like a typical wife with her narrowed gaze on Hidaya. Even though she looks beautiful, she still manage to look repulsive and hideous in Nana's eyes because of the way she's shamelessly trying to get her husband's attention. They're cousins, of course but the relationship she's looking
SECOND FIGHT. . .Flawlessly dressed in black Catalan dress maxi length lightweight with tiered bubble sleeves and waist belt, Nana kept bouncing around the room to make sure everything is perfect. Zayn kept asking her to slow down and do things leisurely but she didn't pay attention to him, saying her first day should leave the perfect impression so he let her be and sat down on the couch after getting dressed for office himself. She walked into the walk in closet and brought out a black strap two inch covered heels, one sided channel bag and dove hijab. She added a bracelet, anklet and ring around her hands before leaving the closet.Looking at his wife from the couch as she kept traveling from one place to another, Zayn sighed. If only he didn't make a stupid promise even though it is for both their sakes, he wouldn't have been this sad. He chuckled lightly
DASH OF DELISH. . .Stepping into the cooking school 'Dash of Delish' Nana took a whiff of the smell. She thought the place will smell so many types of dishes but to her surprise, it smells chocolate cookies with milky coffee. That alone made her stomach rumble, an onomatopoeic sound with the need to eat everything around the place but suppressed it and continue to walk deeper inside where she saw a receptionist sitting with a frown etched on her brows. She's looking deep into something in her laptop so Nana took a little more time to look around the lobby.There is a counter bench right in front of her. A very long one that curved to where the receptionist is sitting at. Under the other long bench that's facing her, there are so many cakes, cookies, cupcakes, coffees, waffles and some biscuits. Everything is very clear to her eyes because of the stainless, unmarked, d
"Hey! It's been so long." Mu'ayyad beamed, looking at his cousin's gorgeous wife perched quietly on the sofa but she lowered her head immediately after smiling up at him. If only he could find a wife like this and he acted fast in the past. They still chat on phone but he feels like it's not enough for him."Yeah. How are you?" She asked almost inaudibly because she's shying away from talking to a man who isn't her husband."I'm perfectly okay." He continue to beam and trudged into the room just when Zayn burst the door open.He didn't like what he was seeing but he kept quite because he trust his wife more than anyone in his life. He smiled and pecked her forehead, as though he wants to claim her in front of his cousin. They're friends and cousins but if anyone is to be talking to his wife like this, he'd do anything to make sure that person is ten miles away from her. He only did that but next time –if there'll ever be one– he will kiss her f
"No, wake up." Zayn whined in Nana's ear early in the morning. Since after they prayed subh, he couldn't go back to sleep whilst she's soundly sleeping next to him."No, go away." She continue to sleep but not really sleep since she has already talk, she won't fall back asleep."Come, let's go." He dragged her out of the bed when she opened her eyes to look up at him with annoyance, irritation clear in her orbs but he didn't pay any heed to it and kept dragging her to the bathroom."It's only 06:00AM, why am I up?" She whined as Zayn continue to splatter water to her face to wake her up."Because, your husband here couldn't sleep and he wants to start going to the gym like you instructed but he wants to go with you. I'm I not amazing?" He grinned at the mirror as she shoot a hard quelling glare his way."I hate you." She pouted, her eyes dropping slightly but she is not sleepy. Why did she even ask him to start going to the gym? Oh, she wants to se
"What happened?" Nana blinked, looking up at Zayn who looks relieved to see her awake and also not in pain. She sat up and look around, seeing first aid kit and water."You blank out when your memories triggered but the doctor said it's a good thing that it happened. You're regaining your memories, and I'm so happy." He beamed, taking her face in both his hands and cupped her cheeks. He placed a kiss on her nose, making her blush before he pulled away."I'm also happy! I want to get over this memories." She sighed before curling herself in a ball in his arms. He felt so cuddly and sweet that she can't help herself but do just that."Maaysa and Rukayyah will be here soon." He whispered to her after some minutes of silence between them, they could hear Khumais' voice as he kept talking gibberish around the whole house."The co-wives." Nana giggled, Zayn only chuckled at her before standing up with her in his arms. He walked out of the room and to the mini l
Nana got ready to go to 'Dash Of Delish' in her favorite pearl trim belted button dress, a-line with pearl bishop sleeves. She's applying a little kohl and nude lipstick around her lips before walking out of the room to take Khumais to her in-laws.Zayn left earlier saying he has a lot of work to do today and he wants to finish everything before Maaysa's wedding and that is just a week from today. Nana is graduating from the cooking school in two days and she can't wait for that. Asma told them that they were fast learners and so, they will graduate just after a month and a week."Good morning, mine." She chirped at a groggy looking Khumais who just walked himself put of his room and met her in the dining room where she placed his cereal.He blinked at her, trying to remove all the traces of sleep looking g cute as he did so. Her heart tugged at that, she doesn't want to think of him leaving her all alone after spending so much time with him. She talked to
"Come let me give you the story of my family and how we grew up." Zayn randomly said to Nana from his position on the bed while she's sitting on the couch trying to type something in his Mac about the new recipe they were asked to bring with tomorrow as deadline since they'll be graduating the next day. She's been going up and down with Maaysa and Rukayyah and they didn't let her do her own homework. She's also not serious!"Really?" That brightens her solemn mood. Even though she knew she was supposed to be creating a dish, she can't help but feel like she needs to know what he's going to say. It's like he's opening up more to her and wants her to see their past even though it doesn't matter."Yup, now come here." He opened his arms widely, touching the headboard with his knuckled in process.Nana raced into his arms and the force made them both tumble in the middle of the bed, thanking God that Khumais didn't want to sleep with them that day or they'd sc
"I don't feel sleepy at all, cherub." Nana mumbled to Zayn from his chest as she lie her head down on it. He made them sleep the whole afternoon off and now they both can't sleep a wink. Maybe with even the nerves of graduating from her cooking school tomorrow. She don't see why Asma want to invite people just for graduating but she said that's how it is and it's mostly family members and close relatives."Same here, mami. What should we do though?" He asked, continuing to rub his hand up and down her back and up to her hair to give her scalf a gentle massage."We should go for a long night run. What do you think?" She beamed, sitting up and looking at him with her eyes like a child waiting to be asked to take the whole jar of cookie. She looks so cute and he can't deny her her wishes even if he wants to. She knew how much he likes going on a night run but stopped after their marriage, he told her that and now she wants to do it with him. What a better way to spend wit
