-----Marafa Estate
------------10:00am, Morning of The Wedding Day.
The evening I spent with Khalifa last night made me forget all about my worries. We went to Havilah ice cream and we spent about two hours there. We talked a lot and bonded more.
Raihannah's Mother found us a makeup artist and a woman that ties amazing headscarves for us for the event. But she was to come later after the nikkah.
I was going to wear an Ankara material that was sewn into a real beautiful gown. It was simple but something I could wear, Raihannah's tailor made it for us here, for I, Firdaus, Ummah, Ummi and ammie. The men were going to wear something called gezner.
White in colour.
I couldn't wait to see how my parents were going to look.
We were definitely going to take a family picture and we were definitely going to rock the Nigerian look.
Najmah's dress was just like mine, I couldn't wait to see how my baby was going to look also. Miriam

I prayed Salatul Maghrib and Isha in her place and she served I and Khalifa Pounded Yam and Egusi soup with different kinds of assorted meat.It was more than delicious.Their meals were probably going to make me gain more weight.We talked about my situation with Khalid and she also advised me to talk to him as soon as possible and resolve all unsettled matters I had with him.Deep down, honestly I was scared of meeting Khalid again.

------Los Angeles, California.-----------Khalid's Condo, 11: 00pm" I'm worried about Father" Sophia said as we set the plates for brunch. She had already gone over to the mansion and brought some mother's things here. " He'll be fine" I answered. " He won't be fine, he's letting guilt eat him up and it is not right, he isn't to blame for anything at all, no one is to blame, he's all alone in the house what if he commits suicide like Grandpa did" I couldn't have her break down. Kimberly needed a strong woman for a mother. " Sophia, Brandon is a strong man"" You didn't see him, even I didn't see him. He didn't let anyone into the study, he locked himself up and who knows what he doing to himself" She said as she sat down on a dining chair in the kitchen." we need to find a way to fix all of this, we need to, the only person I feel can fix everything is Faryah, you guys hurt her enough and now

———————Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.——————————— Sky Residence, Jalan 6/91 Taman Shemalin Perkasa, Cheras.Finally. I could rest. Driving around Kuala Lumpur at midnight with sleepy eyes was seriously not easy. My Condo was on the fifth floor. It was a fully furnished two bedroom space. It was really really nice. Plus, the view it had of the city was extremely nice. Mother took a shower immediately we got home and she has probably fallen asleep now. I took my bath and freshened up and went to my room. It was smaller than Mother's room but hey, we could manage. It was luckily amazingly ventilated. The cool breeze that came from outside was enough to make me fall asleep from only shutting my eyes. The air conditioner was also on. It was nice. I was going to enjoy my stay here.I needed to find a place close by

The person presenting the app called, snapping me out of my thoughts. " Sir do you have any questions?" He asked me in particular. " Oh no no

------Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur.----------- KLCC Park, Jalan Ampang, City Centre, elevated bridge, 5:30pm." How're you?" He asked and smiled at me. I missed his beautiful smile. He looked depressed. To be honest it didn't look like the Khalid I knew. The pain that filled his eyes were like how full an ocean was. He wasn't doing okay. He still looked as handsome as he had always been but he was unhappy. The anger I felt towards him vanished into thin air the minute our eyes met.I actually kind of missed him. " I'm fine, you?"" I'm fine too" he answered again and smiled at me. " You know you look more beautiful and cute" Those words weren't going to make me blush like they used to. " Thank you, you don't look bad yourself" I answered. The park was as usual, busy.I watched as he looked at Najmah in her carriage. " Can I carry her please?" He looked like he was ho

I was on a video call with Khalifa and Najmah was eating rice I cooked with chicken broth.I had already narrated my experience with Khalid today to Khalifa.It didn't go as bad as I thought it would.

Here, I went to the grocery store and super market, got us a few cups and dishes and I bought some groceries, I cooked Assam laksa" Mother said as she gave me a plate of food I couldn't recognize. " what's Assam Laksa?" I asked as I used my fork to play with the onion rings that topped the plate. " It's rice noodles in sour tamarind broth I peppered with mackerel and there you'll see the vegetable garnishing. It tastes better than it smells or looks" Mother said as she poured me a cup of water. " Alright" I answered and dug into my food. It was spicy and delicious." It's nice right?" She asked and I nodded my head as I ate more. " it's delicious Mother" I answered. " I knew you'll like it, my best friend taught me how to p
