Long chapter ❤️

Sorry for the late update

Third person's Pov

Layla woke up early in the morning feeling her birthday vibe.

After dressing up,she applied a little make up and went to prepare breakfast

"Good morning mama" Layla greeted

"Morning my dear happy birthday may Allah bless your new age" She prayed.

"Thank you mama" I smiled

"Uhm mama are you hungry?"

"Don't worry my child I've cooked something for myself it's your birthday afterall so you're not supposed to work" She smiled.

"Okay mama"

"Suprise!! Happy Birthday from me, mommy baffa Fadoul and Daddy!" Falisha shouted running from behind the couch.

"Thank you Lisha but how did you get here?"

"Thanks to your darling mother in law she helped me" She said

"Mamaaaa" She whined and they chuckled just then,Aaban came in looking like a hungry lion.

"Good morning"Layla greeted and he nodded.

"Good morning maa" He pecked her hand and she smiled

"Hy!" Falisha waved with a forced smile and he waved back.

"Here Layla from me and Baffa Fadoul I have to go mommy told me not to stay long"

"Okay Bye" She escorted her out and didn't go back inside till her car zoomed out.

"Layla get ready were going out later" Aaban announced as soon as I entered the house.

"Okay" I smiled and sauntered into my room

"Hello?" I answered my phone call. "Ya Layla guess what!?" Zee said

"Just tell me" I said "Okay okay *deep breaths* Ya Kamee is getting married they're coming to set a date tomorrow!"

"Really!? Oh Allah thank you sooo much I'll soon come to Nigeria!!"

"Yh I can't wait too" She smiled.

"Zee do you have a boyfriend?" I asked

"Yeah" She said obviously shy.

"Who?" I said

"Bye I'll call you later" She hung up and I chuckled

Al-Basheer's Pov

My Layla is married! I will not spare that stupid man who got married to her and she knows that I love her so much.More than anything in this entire world

I love her with my entire heart and I will do absolutely anything to get her back anything! Wallahi!

"Boss sheer what's wrong?" One of my men asked.

"No never mind" I waved my hands in the air

"Sir you can tell me! Did a girl reject you?" He asked mockingly

"Shut the hell up!" I shot him in the chest and he fell down immediately.

I hissed silently before calling someone to take his body away.

Layla's Pov

I got dressed in a grey knee length jacket and a black jeans and tied my veil like a hijab with black snickers and a clutch

I sprayed a reasonable amount of perfume before sauntering out to the parking lot

I caught a glimpse of Aaban sitted in his car he's sooooooo MashaAllah!!!

"Assalamualaikum" I opened the door and sat in the front sit.

"Waalaikumusalam" He said

He drove us to McDonald's and we settled down before placing our orders.

I ate my burger silently while Aaban was busy with his phone

"Why are you staring at me like that? I'm not your boyfriend" Aaban raised his head.

How did he know I was staring?

"I wasn't staring at you why will I even state at you?" I denied

"Says who is crushing on me"

"Never! I used to but not anymore and whenever I even think of it I feel ashamed for crushing on someone like you it's just childhood madness everyone has done that" I shrugged

"You still do not need to argue" He argued.

"But...."

"Shhhh shut up" He ate the last piece of his burger and I chuckled.

"What's funny?" He asked in an annoyed tone.

"Nothing"

We finished up and he paid before we left.

Aaban drove us to a park,a very beautiful,lively and mind blowing park

"Let's go are you scared of rollercoaster?" He asked and honestly,I am but I won't show it to him or he'll keep mocking me.

"Let's go!" I said bravely and we went towards the rollercoaster waiting for our turn.

I started sweating and I think Aaban noticed it due to how he laughed

"If you're scared you should just tell me I will go alone" He said

"Nahhhhh I'll do it!" I said and he smirked when they called us for our turn.

We got on our seats and tightened our belts I gulped hard waiting for the worst to happen.

The rollercoaster started moving slowly till it reached a stage where it started rushing as us it was being chased.

The rollercoaster in Nigeria is nothing compared to the one here in London cause it's more scary and it takes a very long time to come to a halt.

I screamed so loud and Aaban was busy laughing at me taking videos

His phone almost fell off his hand but I quickly caught it and stuck my tongue out

The rollercoaster came to a halt and I jumped out quickly.

"That was great" Aaban said "Yeah"

"Scaredy cat better keep quiet you kept screaming I thought it would be the last time I'll be able to hear" He said and I rolled my eyes

"Aaban let's go and get some cotton candy" I said

"I'm not buying that for you" He glared

"Thank God I have money" I stuck out my tongue and bought two cotton candies.

"Have it" I handed one to him "No I'm not having that take it away"

"You're such a boring guy you know" I rolled my eyes.

"You fool! I'm not boring gimme" He collected the cotton candy and took a little

"Hmm wow this thing is nice" He took a bigger bite and I laughed

"I told you" I bragged and took the last nite before washing my hands.

"Layla let's go" He said. "Noooo I don't wabt to go home now"

"We're not going home let's go!" He dragged me to the car and drove us to a mall.

"You should select something that you want and I'll buy it for you" He said.

(A/N):Wayyo Allah where is Tasha??????

"But you've already given me something" I smiled.

"That was my gift and this one is on behalf of your siblings"

"Oh"

It took me an hour before I finnaly picked a pair of skechers,a set of turbans and a Louis Vuitton hand bag

"You're finnaly done shopping queenlLet's go" He paid for the things and we left.

"Where to now?" I asked

"Cinema?" He said. "Sure let's go!" I squealed

When was the last time I was this happy?

We drove to a cinema and watched 'Jumanji:The Next Level'

3 hours later,

7:57pm

We left the cinema after the movie finished it wasn't yet time for maghrib so we went to the seaside to watch the sunset.

I took alottt of selfies and sent some to my siblings and posted some with the caption:Best Birthday!! ❤️🎊

After the sun set,we stopped by in a mosque and prayed maghrib before heading back home.

We reached out house and opened the door but the lights were off.

"Mama?" I called but no one answered.

"Aa..." I turned around but Aaban has dissapeared as well.

I switched on the lights but no one was there I checked all of the rooms and toilets but I didn't find mama.

Maybe she went out "I thought"

I took a bath and changed into a black Abaya and a veil then I heard a sound coming from the living room so I rushed there and I found a paper

To the backyard

~Mrs Anonymous

I put on my slippers and walked out to the backyard.

"Hey! I was told to give this to you" A guy handed me another paper and left quickly before I could even ask him who sent him.

Get into the car it will take you to a PLACE

~Mrs Anonymous

A white car stopped in front of me and I ran away but I unfortunately, someone grabbed me and put a white cloth on my nose and everything turned black.

------------------------------------

I woke up to a loud thud and I saw myself in a beautiful room.

I checked the time and it was just 8:48pm

I sauntered out of the room and I was welcomed with a familiar scent.

Suddenly,the lights were turned on and I heard 'Suprise!!!'

I'm in Falisha's house how? When? And my clothes have changed most especially I'm wearing makeup!

"Happy Birthday!!" They sang and I almost teared up.

"Thank you all so much" I sobbed

"You're welcome" They;Falisha,Aaban,
Fadoul,Anty Falmata,Uncle Muhammad,
Mama and May answered with smiling faces.

I cut the three layer cake and fed Falisha,Mama,Aaban and Anty Falmata while the rest were served on a plate

"Happy birthday darling" Falisha kissed my cheek

"Thanks Lisha I'm sure this was all your idea" I knocked her head.

"Ouuuu!" She rubbed her head.

Mama gave me a jewelry set, Anty Falty gave me a Gucci bag,Uncle Muhammad gave me Davina flats,May gave me Smart Collection perfume and Falisha gave me a Mac make up kit

"My gift is coming in some minutes" Fadoul announced.

"Here!!!" He shouted as a very beautiful girl walked in.

"Assalamualaikum I'm Qamrah" She smiled.

"Qamrahh!!" Falisha squealed and jumped on Qamrah.

"Heyyy I can't breath"

They exchanged pleasantries with the elders and Fadoul introduced us

"Qamrah this is Layla my friend and Layla this is Qamrah"

"Nice to meet you Layla I've heard alot about you from this big head and Fadoul" She pointed at Falisha with a smile

"I've heard alot about you too I've made a new friend I guess" I smiled and we hugged.

"So now that the both of you have met you're ditching me!" Falisha pouted

"Awww big head is jealous" Qamrah teased.

"I hate you!!" She licked her ice cream.

"We love you too!" Qamrah and I chorused which made everyone laugh.

We had ice cream,food and drinks.It was an unforgettable day.

Qamrah and I exchanged phone numbers before we left.

I changed into my nightwears and walked to Aaban's room

"Thank you for today Aaban I really appreciate it"

"You're welcome tho I don't deserve the credit"

"Then who does?" I raised my brow

"Your siblings.They begged me to make this birthday of yours the best and that's why" He shrugged.

I'm hurt but atleast he did it for my siblings and I'm grateful

"Okay goodnight" I left the room since mama already knows everything so no need to pretend to be a 'Happy Couple'
