Married in spite of me

Part 2 chapter 18
Yasmine
I was passing in front of my daughter's door this morning when I hear her throwing up again, this time I have to ask her the question to be clear because this story of vomiting has become too frequent lately
Me (opening the door): Malika, how are you?
Malika coming out of the bathroom: yes mom, it's ok
Me: my daughter, it's been a while since your vomiting started, is that what I think?
Malika: no mom it's not what you think
Me: do you take me for a crazy person or what? what happens to you is called morning sickness and it doesn't happen to women who are pregnant, so tell me are you pregnant yes or no?
Malka: mom I'm not pregnant, I'm just stressed because of my exam results and you know very well that stress often makes me sick
Me: Malika tell me, you and your boyfriend, do you have an intimate relationship?
Malika: mom is not my boyfriend it is my fiancée
Me: are you going to stop me right away, do you have intimate relationships yes or no?
Malika …
Me (above): my daughter? I would have preferred you to wait for the wedding, if you are pregnant now you will have to put up with people's ridicule and judgment because you know full well that our religion does not allow us to marry while pregnant
Malika: say rather that you are afraid of being ashamed if I were pregnant
Me: How can you think such a thing? I am your mother I will never be ashamed of you, just that you are my daughter and as a mother I would not want to see my daughter suffer from the gaze and judgment of others
Malika: even if I was pregnant it does not concern people so they can say what they want
Me: in any case the ideal would be that you are not pregnant, after the wedding you can give me all the grandchildren you want, this house lacks life, when Mayer does not come it is too calm besides he needs to have cousins too
Malika: you always have to bring everything back to her, I can't even have a simple conversation with you without you mentioning it, I'm sorry to let you know that I'm not as perfect as your favorite little girl
Me (really surprised to hear what she's getting out of me): where do you get stuff like that? I've never put a difference between you, why are you talking like this, I hope you're not going to tell him that nonsense you're telling me
Malika: of course I told her what I thought of her
Me: so it's for her she's been avoiding me lately, she doesn't call me anymore and doesn't want to leave me the little one anymore?
Malika: well, I don't know...
Me: really my daughter, you make me really sad, I really took the good Lord that you didn't inherit your father's behavior room, this little one life was very hard with her already very little, she doesn't did not know her father, unlike you she was born in a hostile environment for the development of a child, her own mother drove her out of her home, she did not know the love of her parents growing up and to top it off she became an orphan very early, despite everything she has been through, she has always been someone very open and who smiles at life, since her arrival here your father has always done everything for her put aside, you weren't very happy to welcome her here either, if I got even closer to her it was so that she wouldn't collapse, you still had your two parents who loved you more than anything but her, she had nothing left except for us; you've always been your father's daughter, you'd rather run to your father when you had a problem than turn to your mother who I am, every time I didn't feel well you didn't even realize it don't count because all that worries you the most is your own person, this little girl you are talking about is the only one in this house who cares about my state of mind and worries about me, she even went as far as 'to accept a marriage she didn't want just because she was told it was for my good, you my own daughter you would never have agreed to do such a thing for me and I wouldn't blame you not since it is not up to the child to sacrifice himself for the parents but rather the opposite; what i'm trying to tell you is that it was you who never wanted to be close to your mum, even until now you keep putting distance between us, i always held out my hands to you and I always will in case you need me to hug you or just help you up…
Malika bursting into tears: I'm so tired of feeling like the ugly duckling of the family, I never do anything right, I wasn't really good at school, I didn't even manage to finish my studies and now...
Me: now what?
Malika is crying: I am pregnant with a man who, when he found out, made it clear to me that it was not in his plans, he left the hotel where we saw each other and went back to his country i know i disappoint you and you may consider me your biggest failure i bring shame on the family but that was not my intension
Me (taking her in my arms): you will never be a failure, we all make mistakes and they help us grow, a child is always a blessing whatever the conditions in which it was conceived, nothing happens for no reason, if God allowed things to happen like this it's because he has a better plan for you so stop crying and be strong for your baby
Malika: I'm so sorry you know?
Me: stop apologizing, and wipe your tears my daughter, the next few months will be complicated, you're going to have to be strong for yourself, you're going to have to take decasons for your future but I would like you to know that as long as I will have the breath of life you can always count on me
Malika: thank you mom…
External narrator
Nabila felt so relieved that things were finally back to normal and the events of recent times made her realize how much she loved her husband and could not continue to live away from him.
She wanted to forget everything that happened in recent months and give herself another chance to be happy with the man she loves
Khalil for his part was looking for a way to be forgiven by his wife and to be able to find the life of a peaceful couple that they had especially since they have a child now.
Nabila entering Khalil's room: sorry I didn't know you were changing
She was not sorry at all, she was very happy even to see her handsome husband's bare chest, this body which had become the object of her greatest desires, he even haunted her in her sleep.
Khalil: no don't worry you can come in
She comes to rest on the bed watching him do it without saying a word, he ends up breaking this silence which was becoming heavy
Khalil: how can I help you?
Nabila: I wanted to know if you needed help with your hands
Khalil looking at his hands: no, don't worry, it's nothing serious
She no longer knew what excuse to invent to stay with him she resigned herself and ended up taking the way to the door but he ended up stopping her by holding her by the arms
Khalil pulling her towards him: are you sure you're there for that?
Nabila on the defensive: what else would I have come here for?
Khalil releasing her: I thought you wanted to spend time with me, guess I was wrong then, I don't need help, you can go
She stays there as if she couldn't move, Khalil walks towards her, lifts his chin and places his lips on hers, she deepens the kiss without being asked, their bodies ignite under the caresses, she wanted more, even more she puts her hands behind his back and serves him again and again with all her might, she was so carried away that she felt like her feet could no longer support her weight
Nabila: I want you, I want you to make love to me right now
Khalil smiling: I thought you wanted me to stay away from you
Nabila: do you want to, yes or no? there are others who will not have to be prayed for to have me
Khalil getting angry: he is out of the question, I warn you you are mine and only death will separate us
Nabila giggling: sir is jealous?
Khalil: I do not agree, is that clear?
Nabila: so show me how much you want me, show me how much you love me, show me how much you want me because I'm dying to abandon myself in your arms
Khalil: I love you so much if you could know, I want to make you mine so much but for now we have to talk
Nabila: are you serious? can't wait?
Khalil: can't wait, if we don't have this discussion now I'll feel like I'm abusing you
Nabila giggling: so let me lead the dance myself
Khalil: be a little serious and come sit down please
She sits on the bed and her husband sits next to her
Khalil: I would like you to know that I really blame myself for everything I put you through, forgive me for letting jealousy and anger get the better of my love for you and for not t 'to have trusted, I'm so sorry for pushing you to isolate yourself and leading you to be a single mother because I didn't show you enough that you could count on me I'm sincerely sorry
Nabila: I forgive you all my love, I love you and all I want is to finally be happy with the man I love, I no longer want to remain attached to the chains that bind me to this painful past
Khalil: there is one thing you don't know, some time ago Amina got in touch with me, she told me how she and Sharif got together to try to separate us from Dubai to 'here she repented and to ask for forgiveness
Nabila: I just want to know one thing, is it because she told you all that that you came back to me?
Khalil: no, I had already made my decision to get back together with you, I still had trouble believing what you were saying but I wanted to forget the past and live my love because despite everything I did not succeed get you out of my heart
Nabila: are you aware that love without trust can never last?
Khalil: I realized it, it was because of my lack of self-confidence that it came to this, I found it hard to believe that a woman like you could accept me and m 'love like you do, deep down I couldn't accept that I deserved this love, I thought it was too good to be true but now I know I screwed up, I'm doing a work on myself, I can't promise you not to be jealous when I see other men desire you or see you complicit with some people, but I can swear to you that I put all my trust in you
Nabila: that's fine with me, I also promise to make sure I can communicate better with you and never hide anything from you again
Khalil: thank you, I love you so much if you only knew
Nabila: I love you even more
Khalil: if you still want me, I want to have sex with my wife all night, I've been waiting for this moment for too long
As an answer she kisses him passionately, he hastens to take off her top, he stops for a moment to admire this beautiful body before placing a kiss on each breast, he begins by kissing her neck before going down to her chest, he was about to release those breasts that attracted him so much when his son's way stopped him in his tracks
Mayer: Mom...
Nabila hastens to get up to put her top back on
Khalil: where are you going?
Nabila: my son needs me
Khalil: I also need you right now, Adja can take care of him while we do each other some good
Nabila: calm your ardor my heart, when Mayer needs mom, mom is available for him
Khalil: and Khalil he counts for butter?
Nabila: these are the joys of parenthood my darling…
She smiles and sticks her tongue out at him before going to get her son and disappearing, he runs his hands through his hair to calm down and drops on the bed, he adores his son but right now he would have preferred him let them enjoy their reunion
