C25 Twenty five

After a long day of sleep, Waleed woke up to observe his salat. By now his body temperature was sky high. His head was spinning as he walked into the bathroom to perform Ablution. He tried his best not to fall as he placed his leg on the sink in the toilet in other to wash his leg. Luckily for him, he did not fall and made his way outside and onto his mat. He prayed Subh and soon was done. He felt thirsty and decided to go out to get water so he opened the door and to his greatest surprise Anisah laid on the floor peacefully asleep. "Did she sleep here?" He muttered while tapping her arm lightly for her to awake. Which she immediately did, she smiled at Waleed and soon realized that her wrapper had already fallen off her body and she was only on her night gown.

"Waleed" she said while picking up her wrapper which she immediately wrapped around her waist. Waleed stood to his feet and asked "Did you sleep here?" He asked and she sincerely nodded.

"Anisah are you crazy?, I told you I am okay" he said.

"I know, I fell asleep here" She lied. He turned around and stared at her and said "You are lier, I know you stayed here to watch me" He stared deep into her eyes and said.

"Not..." he made her paused as he cupped her cheeks. Her heart immediately stopped beating for a second.

"Why do you care so much about me?" He said almost in a whisper "I thought you hated me" He placed his forehead upon.

"You are a human" She said. Her voice almost failing her, she didn't know what had gotten into her this past few days because she had begun feeling something in her heart towards Waleed.

"You lied again" He smiled with his head still on hers. She felt very uneasy so she pulled away from him and ran away. She entered into her room and banged the door, her heart was pounding from the butterflies in her stomach. She didn't know when a smile appeared on her face. It then dawned on her that his forehead was hot. He was still sick. She immediately to pray and then take her Bath, as soon as she was done. She wore a pitch floral gown and placed a black cap on her head.

She immediately ran down the stairs and straight up into the kitchen where she found Waleed eating indomie and egg while sipping on a green tea. Her face immediately flushed red when she met with his.

"Hey" He smiled at her. Even he knew that he was certainly getting okay being around Anisah.

"Have you taken your medication?" She asked and he nodded.

"Take that plate on the island, your breakfast is in there" Waleed said.

"You made me breakfast?" She asked and he nodded.

"Well thank you" She said. She picked up the plate of Indomie and fried egg and decided to make her way out.

"Where do you think you are going to?, come and sit down over here" He said.

"I'm sorry but I'll be okay in my room" She said. He chuckled.

"Anisah sit with me" He said "Please" he added. She made her way towards the chair and sat down. She took a bite of the indomie and soon began to laugh.

"Did you put the seasoning?" She asked.

"Nope, I might had sorta forgot. But I just sprinkled it on it and steered it" he said while passing her the indomie seasoning. She collected it and did the same thing he had done.

"It taste better now, I guess" She chuckled. "And the egg, how did you fry it?" She asked and he chuckled.

"The normal way of course" He said. He stared at her a little and decided to focus his attention on his phone. He was getting better and all he needed was the green tea to soothe his headache.

A call came through his phone and he picked it up. "Yes Mum, I'll be there by 1pm, is that okay with you?" He asked his mother who was on the other side of the phone.

"Anisah I need to go get ready" he drank up his tea and ran off to his room. He took his bath real quick because the time was 11:32AM and the drive to the location which he wanted to go to was an hour drive. Immediately he was done, he wore a navy blue caftan that made him look so handsome. He sprayed perfume all over his body before hurriedly putting on his watch. After that he ran downstairs.

"Bye Anisah" He yelled while running outside. She wondered what was making him rush so fast but soon shrugged it off as she began arranging the house.

Waleed arrived at the great big mansion that stood before him. He walked into it and saw his mother and father seated on the chair.

"That's Waleed" his mother announced as soon as she saw her son walking in. The entire family in the room looked at him closely, but most especially the one whom he was here to see. It was love at first sight the minute she saw him.

"Asalamualaikum Good Afternoon Everyone" He greeted. The Entire family loved the way he looked. He was very handsome, even the older women in the room soon began to talk amongst themselves that the Lady He was there to see was very lucky.

"Waleed This is Kabira, she's the girl I have chosen for you" his mother said while referring to the beautiful lady seated beside her.

"Hey" Waleed said the first thing that came to mind.

"Why don't you too go to the gazebo and talk" Kabira's mum suggested.

"Sure" She said. She led the way she Waleed followed behind her outside and towards the gazebo where they both sat in silence for close to ten minutes.

"If you are not happy with this marriage, I can call it off" He said.

"I'm okay with the marriage, in fact I'm happy about my parents choice" Kabira blushed. Waleed knew that he had no option but to marry her for the sake of his mothers promise to Kabiras mum.
