Sitting in our university IT park is sadiya, Aisha and I. We just came out of our first lecture and decided to have some girls time here.

" speaking about exes.Ameera do you remember Faisal's sister ,the small one who got married last few months? " Aisha asked and I nodded

" Her marriage is now over. She was caught by her husband in bed with another man. That girl is to spoilt for her age. "

But mama never mentioned it to me

" I really pity inna(faisal mother), she won't be able to bear this shame. That girl is something else, she needs serious prayer and Faisal never mentioned anything like this to me the last time I saw him"

Aisha looked surprised

" so you've met Faisal? I mean, how? When?"

" erm, the day I went shopping with sadiya"

Sadiya look alarmed at the mention of her name.

" you mean, the day you took off with Amir and left only me in the restaurant,dz?" sadiya asked.

" yes"

" That means,amir also saw the Faisal guy right, that was why you two left because he was angry?" sadiya asked and I nodded.

" But, Amir didn't know he was my ex"

She look confused " Then why was he angry"

" He was angry because Faisal held my hand when I was about to go into the restaurant " I explain

She nodded " he is lucky yaya didn't go maniac on him. Yaya can be so jealous and when that happens , he is always scary. "

I look surprise at this new information. Can Amir be scary when he is jealous? I know he gets jealous easily but scary, is another new thing.

" Hey, don't think too much about it. But it will be better if you have just told him Faisal was your ex, especially now that you two love eachother so much. You don't need to lie to yaya"

I nodded at her and drank from the bottle water I was holding. These days ,I notice that I get neuseous easily

, I really need to see a doctor.

" when matter like that arises again, I promise to tell him" I said to them and they nod at me

" we better get going for our next lecture b'coz the time is already 12:00pm. " Aisha announced

We gathered all our belongings and each one of us made our way to each of our venue.

My last lecture just ended. Today's, class was lively and I really enjoyed it. I pack my books into my bags.

" Ameera"someone called my name from where I was sitting. I turn to see that person and it was Sarah, my new friend in class.

She walk closer to me with a wide smile

" guess what!! " she said

I gave her a confused look " what? "

" I said you should guess joh. Well, anyways we are in the same group"

Oh

our lecturer gave us a group assignment and he told the course Rep to divide the class into four groups. I think that why she is happy b'coz we are in the same group.

I shake my head at her " that is why you're smiling like a happy cat? " I tease

" hey, I'm only happy I got to be in the same group as you"

I laugh out loud ,when my laugh subside " I'm happy too. At least I have my crazy new friend with me"

She playfully glare at me for the 'crazy' part. I nudged her shoulder playfully.

" it's time to go home, I promise my hubby that I'll come visit in his office. I better get going"

" well-done, madam hubby. We that don't have hubby, what should we do"

" Then marry a hubby, that's the best solution " I jokingly replied. She rolled her eyes at me.

We both walk out of the lecture hall and then, walk to where my driver packed his car. We will drop Sarah along the road. Sadiya and Aisha, still have two lectures before they close. Sani will come later to pick sadiya from school.

" Thanks for the ride" Sarah said as she got out of the car.

" see you in class tomorrow " I said with a wave of hand.

Sani start the car and drove me to Amir's company, It been long I went there. I have never been to the company as Amir's wife, this is my first time.

I can still remember how big the company is, it really is lavishing to the eye. I got down from the car and made my way to the entrance of the building.

I feel so nervous

It not like the workers know me or something, i just feel some how that's all. As I entered,eyes turn to me ,all looking puzzle at the new face that just enter. I met a lady on a desk and ask her if Amir was around

She answered with a bright smile " yes he is ma'am , use the elevator to the last floor. A lady will be there to direct you to the office "

I gratefully smile at her " Thank you "

She nodded at me and I left.

It isn't like I don't know Amir's office, I just don't want to seem rude.I can vividly still remember that office. That was the day I came a cross one miss Fatima who warned me about the arrival of their new boss. Unfortunately, that rude boss is now my husband.

I entered into the elevator and press number to of the last floor. The elevator dinged and I came out of it. I turn left to walk to the office but unfortunately for me, luck wasn't on my side today b'cos I bump into someone again. Why do I keep bumping into people like this?

The person held me in a firm hold coz I was about to fall down. I quickly draw back from his hold and look up to apologize to him.

" I'm so sorry "

" Ameera? "

Am I hearing double or did this stranger just call my name?

I gave him a confuse look " am sorry,who are you? "

He look dissapointed that I didn't recognize him but cover it with a smile nevertheless.

" it's me Ameera, Aminu"

Aminu? Where did I know that name? ..oh... Oh...it then clicked to me.

" Aminu, bashir's friend?" I shouted

He nodded at me. Why didn't I quickly recognize him, maybe it's because of his dressing. He is wearing a suit and back then ,he dress like those swagger boys . He really looks different now.

" what are you doing here?"

" I'm an investor to this company and I'm also lucky to now be one of the shareholders "

Oh, that's good for him

" so, what about you? Are you also working here? " he asked.

" No, I don't work her. I came t--"

" she is my wife" a voice said and I'm sure we all know who that was.

Amir came forward to stand close to me and he shut Aminu a forced smile. Aminu look surprise and smile at me.

" You're so lucky man, I'm happy for you" he said to Amir.

" Yes, I know I'm " I mentally rolled my eye at how rude Amir sounded.

" well, let me leave you lovebirds. Congratulations once again" aminu genuinely said and pat Amir's back before leaving.

I face Amir and tutted at him

" what? I was at least nice to him" a jealous Amir said

I grinned up at him " my jealous hubby" I tease

" hey, I wasn't jealous"

I laughed at him. I peck his lips and we both walk into his office.
