Nana didn't feel at ease with her husband sitting with his cousin sisters all around him, so she find somewhere she could spy on them. They're all beautiful and it's not like she's insecure about their love, but she hates seeing girls around him even if they're his cousins. They're not his mahram and that's that. She sat down next to the bride and her co-wife where she could see them clearly. If Hidaya wasn't sitting there, she would've been more sated and happy but with Hidaya inches away from her husband, she doesn't trust her one bit. She doesn't even respect personal space and could see her husband moving away from time to time which made her grin.

Zayn stood up after mumbling an excuse to them -from how he moved- to answer his phone call. A few minutes later, he wasn't back and Hidaya stood up and follow the same direction as he did. Nana groaned before excusing herself from the tensed girls, she will give them some lectures later because now, she wants to see what that stupid woman will do to her husband. She walked out of the house and find him sitting on a bench in the backyard. The place was quite except for some couple standing here and there most of them with their phones. Zayn is also talking on phone, not knowing that Hidaya was beside him.

Nana watched vigilantly like a private investigator zooming on criminal's picture. Zayn finished the call and tuck the phone inside his pocket, he was about to turn around when she saw Hidaya quick movement. She is trying to kiss her husband! Nana's heart pick up in anticipation as her legs stayed rooted beneath her, blood rushing to her head and anger bubbling deep within her stomach which made her heart drop. Nana ran to where they're standing but it seems like she's too late for what happened next, Hidaya's lips landed on her husband's.

She saw red!

Matching to where they are standing and slap Hidaya right across her cheek. She's always against violence but right now, she doesn't care about whatever it us that's going to happen. This girl deserve all she's going to do to her. No, her lips landed on his jaw not his lips. If it was on his lips, Nana wouldn't know what she would've done but she surely knows that she'd do something she'll regret later on.

"That is for coming close to my husband." She gritted out.

The people around there didn't know what is going on so Nana pushed herself in between the two because she could see that Zayn doesn't know what is going on or he's trying to process everything that just happened. He knew someone's lips landed on his jaw but he doesn't know shoes because when he fully turned around, he saw both Nana and Hidaya standing in front of him with Hidaya clutching onto her right cheek while looking at Nana with regret.

"What do you think you were doing?" Nana gritted out between gnashed teeth after another slap because her anger is getting the best of her and if Zayn hadn't acted fast and hold her fist into his, she would have slapped her again.

"I'm sorry." Hidaya ran out of the place in shame and regret.

She really didn't mean to kiss his jaw but it just happened. She was very desperate for attention when everyone around her is drastically moving itself. She's not really there cousin because she was adopted when Mu'ayyad saw her in an orphanage and ask his parents to adopt her. Everything she needs, it is there but it's like everything they're giving her is never enough.

Hidaya was brought up and was given the Khattab last name because no one knows her last name and even her first name was given to her by the orphanage manager. She was just two when they adopted her and she never knew that she was adopted till she reached fourteen when she didn't see her baby pictures. She started doubting their love and became a wild child always partying and getting into trouble so that they can scold her for been stubborn and mistakingly let it slip but they never did. They let her do what she's doing and thought that it's just her teenage years.

When she started going to Oxford University with Maaysa, she became more wild and stopped paying heed to any of Maaysa's words. Their friendship started drifting apart but Zayn was there to help because he likes visiting his sisters so that he can spend sometime with his friends over there.

Zayn was just trying to help her come to her senses but she started clinging onto him and started acting like his girlfriend. He let her do all that because she stopped partying because of it. She told him her problem and he consoled her and told her that even if she is adopted, they still love her like their own and didn't show her or let her suspect a thing.

So when Zayn got married to Halimah, she tried her very beat to separate them by sending Zayn home whenever she finds Munir in the house which worked after her fifth attempts. He divorced her but became like a beast and she started falling out of her obsession for him. It came back though!

He started coming back to himself and even paid her some visits here and there and offered her job in his father's company as the interior designer. When she heard that he's getting married again, she tried her very best to make sure it didn't happen though she's not even in Nigeria but there are a lot of guys willing to do her dirty works for her so she asked for help. It didn't happen though! He got married to Aisha.

When she met Nana at first, she knew that she's the perfect match for Zayn especially how he looks smitten by her just a few days after getting married. But those looks he's giving Nana is what she wants! Zayn was always hers but Nana had to show up and agreed to marry him. She started giving up but wanted to try her last luck by kissing him. There was no spark between them, it was a very risk move but even by touching his jaw, she felt nothing and now she'll have to move on and wait for her husband.

Mashhub and his wives were left alone after her friends left. Now is the time to talk about the no fighting thing but he doesn't even know where to start. He's very nervous and could see his wife trying her best not to laugh at him. They all look very comfortable sitting next to each other while he sat at the single sofa looking at them, his lips looks glued. They are even wearing the same outfit except that Maaysa is wearing more jewelries than Rukayyah and he could swear that he didn't meet Maaysa in her house with this outfit.

"I don't know what to say." He grumbled underneath his breath, raking his hands through his head.

"We could see that." Rukayyah chuckled followed by Maaysa who made sure to close hers with coughs.

"Shut up." He grumbled again before standing up, removing his babban riga and sitting back down.

"It's okay, you just go and rest. Don't wake up early, I'll make breakfast and bring it to you kids. Maaysa, come with me for now." Rukayyah laughed walking down the hallway to her room hearing Maaysa's soft legs following her and Mashhub's grumbles from behind.

"What are you doing?" Maaysa panicked, looking at Rukayyah who's holding a cream nightgown that left nothing to imagination.

"Come on, don't act dumb right now. Don't forget that Nana told us what you gave her as wedding gift." Maaysa blushed deep red, she's very shy right now. "Don't worry, just drive him wild a little. So wear this under the jallabiya you'll wear for when you guys will pray." She passed the nightgown to Maaysa who collected it with reluctance.

"Thank you. I don't know if I will ever be able to pay you for what you've been doing for me, thank you." Maaysa hugged her tightly to her because she wasn't planning on consummating their marriage today but since her co-wife gave her the go-ahead, she'll do it.

"Just be a good sister." Rukayyah joked before pushing her out if her room to the other side where her own room is and where Mashhub is waiting.

Rukayyah beamed, feeling like for the first time, she's done something she's very proud of. She felt like even Allah is proud of her for joining the union and can't thank God for her bravery enough. Without her best friend, she wouldn't know where she had be and so she performed ablution and prayed to nawafil thanking Allah and praying that she gets pregnant soon. Her friend is right, nothing is impossible and maybe this is only a test.

After the couple prayed, they sat down on the praying mat each of them praying for one thing or the other. Masshub turned around and place his right hand on her head, whispering the prayers. Maaysa is feeling very nervous and felt like the jilbaab around her is suffocating her but she kept quite and continue to stare at the beautiful specimen who is the love of her life and now her husband. She can't be thankful enough to Allah and to Rukayyah because she knows deep down, no woman will do this.

Maaysa took a deep breath, trying to clear her mind as she looked down at her husband changing to sweatpants and shirt. He looks drool worthy and not that she's never seen him like this. Not once because they dress like that with Zayn whenever they are going to hit the gym in her house and she will always spy on them like a detective. She's now looking at him in another light because she's not spying and he is her lawful husband.

After taking a deep breath, she started removing the button from the jallabiya one after the other, looking straight at Mashhub whose eyes are now fixated on her. Dropping the jallabiya into a pool underneath her feet, she could see the almost animalistic lust swirling around in his eyes. She temptingly strolled to where he's standing and smiled, it almost looked forced because of how nervous she is.

Without any other thought, Mashhub's lips claimed hers after drawing her in his embrace. There is no way he could stop himself from consummating his marriage not when the temptress standing in front of him wants to. They were breathless and so he moved to her collarbone and to the base of her boobs, using his forefinger to remove the flimsy sleeves from around a dizzy Maaysa all the while massaging the soft skin around her chest, before moving down her back and taking her by her knees and plopping her on the bed.

He is a man and can be very weak so he did what should be done! They consummated their marriage and fell the happiness surging through every married couple. He won't say he is already in love with her but he knew that with time, he will develop something other than the sisterly and brotherly bond.
