HER POSSESSIVE HUSBAND

CHAPTER 18

We deemed the light and made it seem like we were in a cinema as we both sat on the big sofa. We

had a bowl of popcorn in front of us even though we had just eaten. We had drinks too and Ridwan had

asked if I wanted pizza or anyother thing.

I rested my head on Ridwan's shoulder as he pulled my closer to himself while I scrolled through

movies to see which one to watch. I clicked on one I felt we might both enjoy. It was a thriller.

When the movie was about to start I decided to tell Ridwan about Hawa's birthday dinner tomorrow and

even though I wasn't sure how he was going to react to it and I really didn't want to spoil the happy

mood we were in but I still had to ask anyways.

"So, You know Hawa right" I asked

"Yeah, your very close friend in uni, how is she by the way"

"She is okay, I told you she also moved to Abuja about the same time I got her too" I said

"Yeah, I remember you telling me that" he said as he focused on the screen as the movie was just

starting.

"So, her birthday is tomorrow and she is organizing a small evening dinner at a restaurant for her close

friends. You could even come if you want to, she asked me to invite you" I said and Ridwan was silent.

I didn't know what he was going to say and I I really wanted to go too.

"Okay, you can go but make sure you are back early and I know when you get there and leave too"

Ridwan said and i was actually really surprised he agreed. I had really been hoping that he would

actually.

"Thank you, Thank you so much. I promise I will let you know how everything goes" I said as I kissed

him on the cheek.

"Hope it's not an all night thing though" Ridwan asked again probably still having some reservations.

"It isn't and it's private too. Just a few friends over" I explained.

"Okay" Ridwan said

I focused back on the screen to concentrate on my movie back. I was actually really excited for Hawa's

birthday and if not too excited. I had not really gone our in a while, I missed lunch dates, the cinemas

and visiting every new hangout spot even if it was just to take a picture. I did that a lot in Lagos while I

was in uni with my friends especially Hawa and I always looked forward to it but now so many things

had changed about me or probably because I just had to conform to everything because I probably

didn't have a choice.

I didn't even know when the movie ended because I had slept off on Ridwan's legs while watching it. I

really never watch a whole movie in one sitting but then Ridwan would have to explain to me what had

happened after I slept. I knew Ridwan had carried me up into the room because I had woken up there.

it was really nice having someone look out for you, I loved Ridwan and my Love for him grew even

more with each passing day.
