Aishah

IT WAS ALREADY 1:30 in the afternoon I already had my bath wearing a black abaya with gold veil,I was feeling so anxious and afraid of meeting my family after a long time

What if they don't accept me anymore

I was so afraid and much more scared about my dad's condition and not able to see him if anything goes wrong

I checked myself in the mirror for the last time before going down stairs,I sat on one of the sofas watching an opera before the door suddenly opened

Ibrahim walked in and smiled at me which I found weird

"Let me change I will be back in a jiffy"he says and I nodded

Few minutes later he was back,he was wearing a black kaftan,Ibrahim looks good in everything he wears and then I suddenly realised I'm on black too so I wasn't that pleased with the idea we are wearing the same colour though I brush it off

He took his car key and we left the house without him talking to me,I was at the back locking the door while he honked the car letting the gateman know we are leaving the house

The gate man opened the gate for us and we drive out of the compound into the busy street of Zaria in silence when my phone suddenly start ringing

"Salam Aleikum"I greeted as soon as I took my phone

"Waleikum salam"it was the agent I asked to help me look for house at Abuja

"I wanted to let you know I already found the perfect place for the kind of description you made,I'm sure you are going to like the house and don't worry I will be sending you the pictures on WhatsApp"

"Alhamdulillah thank you so much I appreciate"

"We will talk later then and if you like the house we will talk about the price"

"Insha Allah no problem"the call came to an end

"Who's that ?"Ibrahim asked when I was putting my phone back in my bag

"An agent"I replied

"For?"

"House"

"What do you need house for?"he asked and I felt like rolling my eyes

"Am I supposed to live in the street after the divorce?"I replied his question with a question

"So you were serious about the divorce"

"Why won't I?"I looked at him like he was asking a stupid question"we are living a loveless marriage this marriage is a clearly a burden to the both of us and the best solution is for us to go on our separate ways and make life easier for us"

"What if I don't want the divorce?"he asked looking at me directly in the eyes and I felt like laughing

"Of course you will I'm sure of that"I replied and he look at me for few seconds and end up shaking his head before placing his gaze back on the road
