A year later,

Nuaimat and Zaid resumed back home to Qatar, in time for the Talividar festival after their round the world in one year honey moon,

The two were welcomed happily and the family kept on commenting on how different and good looking they were,

Thou everyone expected to see her with a baby bump showing or yet to show, some of the Aunties directly asked her if she is on birth control pills or why she isn't yet pregnant or maybe she had a miscarriage

"Why are they so obsessed with me being pregnant or not, it's not like they will be aiding me in carrying the baby for months, so why bother, the household is already filled up with kids" she complained in their room up in the palace, that was the fifth day of the festival and it was in the night, she was just out from the shower and was in a small towel, without minding the cold weather because the room was warm,

While Zaid was on the bed in his P.J, playing game on his i pad,

"I don't know why they kept on asking, Aunt Eshal even asked me if am sure you didn't have a miscarriage" he said

"Oh perfect" she said as she buns her hair,

" but i really thought we will have something of that sort by now" he said innocently,

"What"

"I mean, i thought you will be pregnant before we get back"

She turned to him, and gave a humorless chuckle and asked "so why are you telling me this"

"Nothing i swear" he quickly replied,

She regarded him for some seconds and then move to the closet to get something to wear, she soon came out wearing a baggy Pink T.Shirt with a poker face Zaid noticed,

"Hey come here" he said putting the I.Pad away, she sighed and climbed the bed,

"Look i careless about it, so don't go all poker face" he said pulling her to him and raising her face, she gave him a pout,

"Owkey, i think i like that more" he said and leaned in to kiss her,

Late in the night as Zaid sleeps peacefully with his hand cuddling up Nuaimat, Nuaimat's eyes were open and set on him, she thought of her daughter Tanisha and how the feeling that she ruined her daughter's life kept on sneaking into her mind, with that thought she secretly thought she wasn't yet ready for another mother hood, and that's why she secretly takes birth control pills, at all she wasn't bothered but now the issue is that that very night told her what he thought and she can't help but feel guilty, tears welled up in her eyes because she felt so confused.

The next morning she deliberately avoided appearing for breakfast, she gave Zaid somw silly excuse and he had to leave without her, .

So when she finally got out she met without Muayad,

"You weren't down for breakfast" he said as they met on the stairs,

"Over slept" she lied

"No, ya Zaid told me you were awake" he answered with a smirk, she eyed him,

"Are you concern because of the question on why you are not yet pregnant" he asked her, she sighed

"Oh please, Ya Aima, since when do you mind what people say about you",

"You won't understand" she said dismissively, "Alright, but i will be glad to hand ya Zaid his wife" he said and pulled her with him downstairs,

"Ayad, i can go..on my own...let go...noww. Ayad.... " she protested
