The rest of the day went by in a blur, we weren't expecting any visitors till next tomorrow so it was just the two of us. I spent almost all the day rearranging the house, basically because its me and theres how id like to see 'my' house. The kitchen took most of the time and Around Isha i was finally done. after Jamals persistence for me to take a rest, I did take rests when it was time for prayers, Or when Jamal decided to jumble my head up with his kisses and gestures.

I finished up what i was doing and walked to my room in hopes of getting a shower before eating dinner. Jamal refused to eat since i didnt allow him to help, i did only when i found it extremely necessary.

"Why are you always in my room" i asked seeing him sprawled on the plush carpet near the ottoman working on his computer

"The door in the closet is for use darling" He answered without looking up.

"sure" came my response then closing the bathroom door behind me. I came out minutes after in a mid-thigh towel and the look Jamal gave made me jump out of my skin

"quit looking" i said

"but you're my wife" He answered in the most obviously way

"Still" i replied then entered the closest to change into some comfy clothes.

"Should i bring the dinner here" I asked walking towards the door seeing him very indulged in his work

"Yess, and I'll be eating with you" He gave me a smile and continued.

I went downstairs to the dining and served on a single plate making sure the food is enough for both of us then carried two spoons and placed it on a tray with two drinks and a bottle of water. I entered my room and found him in the same position i left him

"Please get off the laptop lets eat, am hungry" I sat across him on the carpet and kept the food between us.
"Yes ma'am" He answered and i gave him a glare.

"stop calling me ma'am"

"yes ma'am" i give up

We ate in silence while Jamal insisted on spoon feeding me which i protested to but he didnt hear any of it claiming ive exhausted myself enough today.
"Are you serious about having five kids?" He asked out of the blue, I almost chocked on my meal, what a time to ask this kind of question.

"Maybe, why?" I answered after i finished chewing and washed it down with a drink, Jamal had the last bite on the plate, then put the plate back on the tray and kept it aside leaving his cup of drink.

"Nothing i just thought maybe like 3, 4 tops" He said in a suggestive way

"Well, we'll have to see how things go first innit?" I answered taking another gulp.

"So what next" He asked stretching his legs and putting his computer to sleep

"Done working already? i asked"

"Nah but i want to spend time with my wife" He said making me blush.

"We could go watch a movie downstairs, its just 9" I suggested. He smirked before nodding his head and getting up then pulling me up. We kept the plates in the sink before finally taking a seat with Jamal literally glued to me, He was shuffling through the channels to find something we both would like then we settled on watching crazy rich asians. A very good movie that i liked and so did Jamal.

when we got back to our room it was already 11 i freshened up as Jamal went to his room to change. I came out and saw him already in my bed.
"Why didnt you just make the room yours in the first place, youre always here" I said before getting under the duvet with him

"Its not the room babe, its you" He answered pulling me closer and landing a kiss on my forehead i closed my eyes by default and i opened them on his, a small smile playing on his lips.

"Youre all that ive wished for, all that I've prayed for, my heart is so full right now its feels unreal, Basmaty you're really mine now huh?" Taken a back i hid my face in his chest and he let out a soft giggle.

"Ive loved you for so long i dont even know what its like not to, I have been with some others I wont lie" He admitted and I looked at him and frowned, he looked me in the eyes and continued "but it had always been you, I've wasted all that time looking for your replacement, I look for you in every woman I've ever been with its ridiculous"

"I love you" I said only loud enough for him to hear, as if there's others I dont want them to hear. I repeated it a bit louder and snuggled more into his embrace, i was annoyed when he got me off his chest but smiled almost immediately when I felt his lips on mine, lips that were captives now.
I let myself be vulnerable for the first time in my life and Jamal took the liberty and made love to me, It was a beautiful night, a day never to be forgotten, engraved onto our memories just like how our body fluids mixed, never to be separated. We fell asleep on each others arm.
Opposing the darkness of the night the brightness of our life just began.



The end...
