In sha Allah, this is gonna be the last chapter, I'm kinda drained and not as enthusiastic about this story, I just tried to round it up. I hope its okay
Enjoy...
Siddiqa's POV:
"I wonder why it's taking them so long, I have a feeling they plan to miss out on your graduation day Saleem cuz If their not down stairs in 2 minutes I'm zooming off"
My eldest son said to my 4th son, he was the most impatient in the whole family, we all knew. I knew he meant his threat so I went upstairs to call my darling daughters, Khaleelah and Khadeejah, sometimes I also wonder why they take so long to get ready for occasions.
As we finally got settled in the car, I looked over to Siddiq then looked through the back seat of our Sienna and counted my kids, as I always did before every take off.
Saleemah! "present" she replied making every one giggle, sometimes she behaves like she was anything but a 24 year old married woman
Khaleel! "present" he mimicked. I shook my head, anyone would argue that he wasn't 23 years old
Sameer! "present" my 22 year old baby replied in a childish tone.
Hafeezh! "present" my 18 year old hero followed suit
Saleem! "present". Even you Mr. Graduant?
Khaleelah and Khadeejah.. Are you there? My 16 year old twins responded with a little enthusiasm 'yeah umm'
My 10 year old Basheer was the next, then my chubby 9year old Rasheed and our darking kast born, Yaseer! Yes. I have confirmed that my kids are complete so. Khaleel zoomed off.
Sadiq pretended to be hurt "Don't u care if i'm missing"
"not at all darling husband, u can't get missing you're here, you've always been. Dont ever think of leaving cuz you're mine forever".
"Ugh ummi, dont get so lovey dovey you're in your forties for God's sake! "
I just smiled as I looked around me, I saw how much i've been blessed with, Allah granted me peace and joy, he granted me my miracles... My children. I never knew I could have kids, I never knew I could sustain a marriage, I never thought that i'd be happy. Fancy me thinking that Siddiq was having second thoughts some 24 years ago.. I guess not.
" Lets go get you graduated son! "I exclaimed, thanking the creator as I zoned out of the children's discussion. Khaleelah doesn't seem to be able to talk about anything else but guys, I need to correct that.
Siddiq interrupted my train of thoughts with his fat mouth, just when I was thinking that things were perfect he said
"I'm getting married next week! "
Okay this is the end of the book 1. Alhamdulillah. I may have a book two soon. In sha Allah.
