"Thank you" Mila murmured as he dropped her on the bed gently. He smiled at her and just then, they heard a knock. "Come in" Mila said and a maid appeared. "Good morning Mrs Lamido, what would you like to have for breakfast?" the maid asked.

She must be the chief maid because she looks older than the other two maids and her uniform is a bit different from theirs.

"Pancakes?" She turned to look at Jawad and he shrugged. "Pancakes and two cups of coffee, black coffee and creamy" Mila said with a smile. "Please do add lots of milk and little sugar to the creamy coffee" she added.
The maid nodded respectfully and left the room.

"Should I call one of the maids to help you get ready?" Jawad asked bringing Mila out of her own little world. She was taking in the view of the beautiful room she's in.

The room is a mix of beige and Burgundy and to say she was so surprised at how the colours mixed so well is an understatement! The person that design the room must be so talented because this is heaven!!
It's so beautiful she's so sure that the room is going to be her favorite place in the House.

"Uhmm sure!" She replied and he left the room for a maid to arrive a minute later. The maid helped her choose a comfortable outfit out of her closet.
When was her clothes even brought to this house?!!! She also helped her set the water in the bathtub and other things before she limped to go have a nice bath while the maid wait for her in the room.

After she was done taking her bath, the maid helped her with her hair. For a moment she want to cut off the mid back length hair but decided against it.
She worked so hard to get such hair unlike them Manal who were blessed with it since birth.

The hair products she used on her stubborn hair before it finally grew to what she wants...... No! She's not cutting that off, at least not with all that hard work of hers.

After dressing In her beige hoodie with cream leggings, she used the hoodie cap to close her hair that is now in pigtails. The weather is a bit chilly.
You might have also guessed that beige and burgundy are her two favorite colours
.
She slowly limped to the spiral staircase and down to the dinning room.
God! She hates being crippled!

Without saying a word, Mila sat down on one of the chairs on the dinning table and just then, a maid, different from the two she met came in with a food trolley, greeted them respectfully before serving them the breakfast or  brunch rather.  It's almost 10:30am even though they arrived home around 8:30am. Mila threw a tantrum so the doctor had to discharge her as early as possible.

The maid left after serving them.

"Soo.. Manal is coming to check on you later" Jawad said. "She couldn't reach you on phone" he added. "My battery is dead and I forgot to plug it in, I'm going to do it later" she said and he nodded in understanding.

"Wait....." she started and he looked up from his food, maybe what she was thinking about earlier is actually true.
"Does Manal live next to us? I mean..is she our neighbor?" Mila asked excited and he chuckled. How could such a thing excite her so much?

"Yes" he replied and she squealed.
"Does that mean I get to see her Everytime I wish?" she asked again.
"Yes" he replied as well and she grinned widely. This is so much going to be fun!
What's better than having your best friend and cousin as a neighbor?!
"There's a backdoor that link to her house, no need to follow the gates Everytime" he said and she nodded her head.

Here's the thing, Jawad and Shadad are best friends and cousins too, agemates as well and same goes to their wives so what's better than having them close to each other? It's literally the best thing out there and their wives seems to be more excited than them. They couldn't help but squeal when they found out about being each other's neighbors.
