Chapter 20: Chapter 20

7 months later....

The more ayman is growing the more he's getting cuter. I can't believe my baby is eight months old. He's just the cutest but sometimes he could be annoying. I gave him a bath and dressed him up in a white overall with tiny cars all over it and a blue hat.

I want to study for my final exams but ayman and Aasim aren't helping. They both need attention but I don't have time for their shenanigans. I packed my books and went out to the balcony

"Finally" I sighed in relief and concentrated on what I was reading.

"Hafsaaaa!!" Aasim yelled. I dropped the pen hard and closed the book. I walked into the room "what?" I asked in a harsh tone. "Don't you talk to me that way" he glared at me. I sighed and rubbed my eyes with my thumb and index finger "what do you want?" I asked calmly.

"Coffee" he replied playing with ayman little hands. "Can't you make it by yourself please. I'm trying to study, you know I'll be starting exams next week". He glared at me before talking "I'll be waiting for my coffee downstairs" he stood up with ayman in his arms and left.

What's up with this guy? He has been cold towards me these days! He's always shouting at me! Say nasty words. Having mood swings. One time he's nice the next he's rude. Is he tired of me or what?

I just shrugged it off and made my way downstairs. I made his coffee and went back to the balcony. It was passed 11pm when I finished studying. I went downstairs to get something to eat, I met ayman and aasim both asleep. They looked so cute. I scooped ayman away from Aasim's chest and took him to my room.

Ayman sleeps in my room now since aasim and I don't sleep in the same bed. I don't know why but what can I do? And I dare not ask why. I went back downstairs and woke aasim up. He stirred in his sleep. He opened his eyes and hissed. He stood up murmuring some things and went upstairs.

I just chuckled and shook my head. I cooked noodles and ate. I gulped down a bottle of orange juice before going to my room. It really bothers me how aasim suddenly changed, I don't know what happened or what I did.

I have to do something about it seriously. I'm getting tired of this crap. He has been treating me like shit for the past few days now. I miss him, I miss the old aasim.

I stood up and straighten my sweatpants. I tiptoed to the door and opened it silently. I went straight to his room and entered without knocking. I saw him sleeping so peacefully. I stood there for god knows how long. I gathered courage and woke him up.

"Aasim? Wake up please" I said more like a whisper. "What?" He asked harshly. "We need to talk..... Please". He sat down resting his back on the bed "what is it?" He asked. "Have I done something wrong please? If I did, I'm sorry. But I really don't like how you've been acting lately" I swallowed hard and waiting for the worst.

He hissed and laid back down. I just stood there looking at him. I went out of the room as tears cascade down my cheeks. I went back to my room and curled up in a ball crying my heart out. What did I do to deserve this? I know I didn't do anything to him. Is he tired of me? Does he want to leave me? Why is he doing this to me?

A lot of questions kept swimming in my head. I just pray someone's not trying to separate us. I really love aasim. I can't let go of him. He's my everything. He's everything any girl could dream of having.

"Aasim wait! Listen to me please. Wallahi you're not going anywhere till you tell me what I did to deserve this kinda bull shit" I stood in front of him blocking the door. He's not going to work today till he tell me why he's treating me like this.

"You wanna know what you did right!" He smirked. I nodded and he brought out his phone from his kaftan. He swiped it open and after few seconds he showed me a picture "who the fuck is this?" He showed me a picture of me and my cousin musaddiq hugging in an ice cream shop.

I burst out laughing "soo... You were... Oh god" I clutched my stomach. "For crying out loud aasim he's my cousin musaddiq. You know him Fa" I tried to make him understand.

"I fucking know. Why will you go out without my permission to go see your so called cousin and even hugging him?" Perks of having a jealous husband. "Okay I'm sorry for going out without your permission. I'm sorry for hugging him, I'm weally weally sorry" I pouted holding his hand. I tiptoed and kissed his cheek.

"I forgive you but don't do it again. Don't ever do it again. Kin jini koh?"

"Yes" I grinned from ear to ear knowing that we're cool now. "I have to go now, already late for a meeting" he kissed my forehead and walked away.

"Oh babe". He turned and looked at me "yes" he answered. "I want to go visit my parents and then go visit ya Yusuf" I said and he nodded.

Thank god today I don't have lectures. I went back upstairs and gave ayman a bath and dressed him up. I took my bath and dressed up.

Xxxx

"Baby ayman" Layla squealed as she saw us. Layla's finally done with secondary school and will be leaving for school at UK soon. I'll miss her and her madness.

"Ayman Kawai kika gani koh" I glared at her playfully. "Sorry ya Hafsa I just missed my baby so much" I gave ayman to her before we entered the house. I met aunty Zaynab, ya Yusuf's wife "thank god you're here na huta I don't have to go to your house anymore" I said after we broke the hug.

"Kin isa ma you still have to come Fa" she said trying to sit down. She looked really huge now that she's pregnant. Eeek I'm going to be an aunt soon. "Ya Yusuf is at work Ko?" I asked and she nodded.

"Umm ayman kenan". I turned my head to see mama grinning at me. "Hajiya ta" I stood up and hugged her. "Where's my husband?" She asked. "He's with Layla" I shrugged.

We chatted for hours before I stood to leave. I went back to my house, offered my prayers and cooked dinner. I went to my room and freshened up before aasim comes back.

I came out shortly and dressed up in a purple lace with black stones decorating the blouse. I put on some make up and went downstairs.

Just then I heard his car drive in. I went out and as soon as he came out I engulfed him in a tight hug. "Welcome home my love" I smiled and he smiled back. "Where's that trouble maker?" He asked of ayman. "He's sleeping, so you see we can do something before he wakes up" I winked and the next thing I felt is aasim grabbing my butt.

"Bakaji wallahi" I shook my head in disbelief. We went in and he took a shower. He came down all dressed in a ripped jeans with a black shirt and a light brown sleeve shirt on top. He hardly dress like that. "You look sexy" I wiggled my brows at him

We moved to the dinning. I sat on his laps and fed him. "Hey I forgot to tell you, your friend's wife is pregnant" I said feeding him spoonful of basmati rice. "Who?" He asked. "Basma of course" I smirked. "Wow that's great" he smiled and I kissed his lips. "I missed you" he whispered. "I missed you more" I whispered back.

"I missed your lips" he gently placed his lips on mine. I gasped and kissed back. His hands wandering around my body. butterflies were all over my stomach as he kissed my neck. We moved to his bedroom still kissing. He undressed me and gave me the pleasure I've been seeking for, for days...

2am....

There we were.. We laid down quietly for a while as I looked into his eyes for minutes I cannot remember. "I wish we'll be like this forever" I murmured. Then he came closer to me with my eyes in his, I could almost feel his heartbeat. He held my hands tightly, smiled and whispered back in my right ear "Now I hope we'll be like this forever" At that instance, I felt butterflies all over my stomach..

I stopped staring into his eyes and turned my attention to his lips. He noticed and smiled. Then he gently held my cheeks as I closed my eyes. There it was, what I've been waiting for, his lips touching mine.

Slowly and gently, he started kissing me. His lips intersected mine while his tongue rubbed on mine a little. He gently whipped my hair to the back of my ear as they were interfering in the process. With a curious passionate delight, we went on and on.

It was so magical, so energetic and so forever. It felt like that's the first and only chocolate I've ever tasted. "That feeling you just had, that unexplainable feeling, that is LOVE" I told myself.
