CHAPTER 15
I opened my eye slowly and I looked to my side on the bed expecting not to see Ridwan there and
surprisingly he still was sleeping peacefully and then I just watched him for a minute smiling as he
slept. I loved watching him sleep, I know it seems weird but really it's always fun for me. I loved waking
up to his beautiful face and it always made me so happy when I woke up before him to watch him
sleep. I decided to make breakfast this morning as I was overly excited. I got out of bed and as I was
about to leave the room, my phone started ringing where I had kept it on the table. I reached out for it
and when I checked the caller I.d I realized it was Hawa. Then I figured she had also called me late last
night but I had missed her call.
"Hey dear"
"How are you doing" I asked "I am sorry I missed your call" I added
"Ohh, no problem. I am good. I just wanted to make sure you were fine. I figured you had not gotten
back to me about the result and all" Hawa explained.
"So, when will you be starting work" She asked and I just stayed silent for sometime. I didn't know what
yo tell Hawa, she had worked so much on my application and was very excited for me to start but then
again I really didn't want to start a fight with Ridwan again especially since we just reconciled. Maybe I
was the one pushing too hard, maybe if I listened to him more, we wouldn't fight so much" I thought.
"Are you still on the call" Hawa asked
"Yeah, it's just that I realized that since I just got to Abuja and all and I just recently got married. Maybe
I need more time with my marriage before work comes in the picture. You know how much working in
the hospital can demand from someone" I explained not knowing what else to say.
"Are you sure this is what you want, you were so excited to start the last time we spoke about this. You
sounded do enthusiastic and optimistic about everything"
"Yeah, I am sure. This is what I want to do" I said
"Okay then, are we still up for my birthday dinner tomorrow anyways" Hawa asked "and don't tell me Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
know, you promised. Remember tomorrow is my birthday and I only invited a few friends.
"Yeah, no problem" I said even though I wasn't still sure about how Ridwan would react to it.
"Take care of yourself dear, see you later tomorrow"
"Take care of yourself too" I said before dropping the phone.
I turned to look at Ridwan and he was still asleep as I thought about how much I actually really wanted
this job but then Ridwan was more important to me and keeping my family together is a big deal to
me.
