ANOTHER CHANCE ANOTHER LOVE.

Chapter 9

A week later today in the afternoon, i was going upstairs to my room, when i heard a loud shriek of excitement, on looking up  from my phone, i saw her, now in navy blue sleeveless gown and a thin veil that am sure fell of her now loose and wavy hair, the long length was cascading down past her chest, for a brief moment i found myself wondering if she will let me twist and play with it,

But her face that was full of excitement had immediately evaporated the moment our eyes met, i stood with a straight face while thst annoying frown crept up to her face,

We stood looking at eachother for three to five seconds when she said "um my friends are here" she murmured,  i just nodded and moved a bit for her to pass, she carefully, too carefully walked pass me, and just a like a switch was flipped, her excitement returned and she ran the remaining stairs down,

I sadly shook my head, why will i be stuck with someone who clearly hates me, with those thoughts i continued up.

While at the sitting room upstairs, i could hear their laughter, her laughter in particular, she laughs alot, and those friends of hers are loud very loud, i halve expected her to come up and ask me about lunch or she should just ask me, but part of me knew she wouldn't and after waiting for some minutes, I decided to head downstairs to get my food because i was so hungry and yet again we met on the stair case, she had a tray full of lunch heading up, she was laughing but it ceased the moment she saw me

"Lunch" she murmured, with that frown, isn't she the one that finished laughing, why the hate,

"Am not hungry" I lied, i just hoped i will hurt her and to my annoyance again, she nodded and turned back, 'you didn't expect her to care if you eat or not' a voice in my head asked me 'I thought she cared, she was bringing up the food for me' my other voice answered, 'no idiot, she was showing her friends how good a wife she is, she was pretending', i sighed and decided to grab a car key and go out.

On reaching downstairs,  i saw them in the first sitting room, and she looked so happy amongst them, none of them noticed me, until i cleared my voice, and they all turned to me,

"The new groom" one of her friends jovially said "my name is Lailah, i and your wife have being best friends since our nappy days" she said and all of them laughed out loud while Ameerah scowls,  "don't say that, that's not funny" she said

"And this is Zara and Rumaisa" Lailah went ahead to introduce and we all exchange greetings

"hope my friend isn't filling up your ears, she can be so lousy"  Zara said and ended up getting smacked with a cushion by Ameerah,

"She can't help it, after all she is always the life of the party" Rumaisa said

"anyways Mr Mahmood, you two should love each other, give love a chance, and give us cute god children"Lailah said, i chuckled at her words and the way Ameerah stood up saying

"Oya, come and be going to your husband's house, you have over stayed your welcome"

"So I will be heading out, I won't be long"i said to them "enjoy yourselves" with that i headed out , as i hear Rumaisa dramatically gasp and said "you didn't tell him bye or escorting him out"

"I did it" i heard Ameerah stubbornly denying "in my mind" she added the last part and they all laughed out, even I chuckled a bit.

AMEERAH's POV

Spending the day with my three besties was fun, we talked alot, gossiped, cooked up and ate junks in the kitchen, did some online window shopping and lots of fun, and every now snd they keep gushing about how handsome Mr Grumpy is, i was doing all i can to avoid any discussion about him but atlast it had to happen,
