Dunia was cleaning the kitchen counters when Donatella interrupts, "Ma'am, your package is here."
"My package? But I didn't order anything." Dunia says.
"I'm not sure, Ma'am. The box has your name on it." Donatella points at the name on the box. She places it on the counter.
Dunia rips it open to find a nude coloured gown, with matching pairs of nude heels and a white purse. There's a letter on the top with her name on it.
To My Love, it has scribbled on it.
Dunia smiles, Barqat. She opens the letter:
Dear Pretty Wife,
I bought you a few things to wear for the party tomorrow. I know these will look beautiful on you. Please bring me to my knees with your sexiness.
Sincerely,
Your Eager Husband
Dunia couldn't wipe the smile off of her face. She could feel the heat creeping up her cheeks.
Donatella looks at Dunia a little confused, "Who is all of this from, if I may ask?"
Dunia places the letter in Donatella's hands and covers her face in embarrassment.
A smile covers Donatella's face, "Ou la la! Sir sure does know how to sweep you off your feet with his words! God Bless you two, I hope you stay this happy forever."
"Thank you." Dunia gives Donatella a hug. Dunia is in the prime of her happiness right now, everything is going just right. Barqat and herself made their feelings very clear for each other. Sure, neither of them confessed their love in the actual three letters but there is something between them that she can feel.
The night they shared their passion, she almost blurted out she loved him. She's glad she didn't say it because she knows he probably isn't ready to hear it. Or maybe she's just making excuses because she's scared the second she says the three words, it'll be out to the world and she'll be vulnerable.

"You know Mr. Devil is now Mr. Angel since he's married you?" Ashley says as she places her lunch box on the table. "What'd you do to him? What's your secret? Witchcraft? Wizardry? Black Magic?"
Dunia straightens her shoulder, "There's no secret. Why would there be a secret?"
Ashley squints her eyes at her, "You're a shady woman sometimes. Always hiding something."
"I am not!" Dunia pouts.
"Both of you have been glowing lately from what I can tell. Especially you. Hm..." Ashley is poking fun at Dunia.
"Is it that obvious?!" Dunia says, horrified.
Ashley bursts out into a fit of laughter "You're too cute!"
"Ashley!" Dunia whines. "Stop making fun of me!" But soon, she joins Ashley and begins laughing.
"Are you going to the party tomorrow?" Ashley asks.
"Yes, of course. Why wouldn't I?" Dunia asks.
"Because... um—because of who's hosting the party." Ashley chooses her words carefully just in case Dunia doesn't know about Furat.
Dunia notices Ashley's nervousness and places a hand on top of hers, "It's okay, I know about everything. He has to face his demons one day or another. He chose tomorrow to face them."
"I need a boyfriend or husband as amazing as you. Ugh, maybe you should marry me instead." Ashley jones.
Dunia laughs, "You should've asked me before I would've ditched Mr. Devil in a heartbeat!"
