The air is thick with condensation and a dull roar, much like a snare drum, reverberates across the sky. Anna was awakened from her sleep due to the sound of the thunderstorm. She was fortunate that the thunder was not so loud that she couldn't handle it. She looked beside her and noticed that Lilly was deep asleep in her sleep. The image of Ibrahim flashed through her mind as he had stated that he would not budge from there despite the rain. Anna, for the love of God. He's not that dumb.She was still curious, so she peered out the bedroom window, the sky looked tar black she looked around to find the stubborn man, her eyes widened when she saw his car was still parked on the same spot. As the rain continued to fall, her heart began to race. If Ibrahim truly waited for her even in the pouring rain, she will never forgive herself. She started walking down the stairs of the apartment building, her heart dropped to her stomach when she realized her husband was actually there. His hair a

“Anna! Where have you been? Do you know how worried I got when I didn’t find you here?” Lilly asked worriedly when she saw Anna in front of her apartment door.Anna gave her an awkward smile. “I have an urgent matter to attend that’s why I couldn’t able to inform you.” She replied, and as she walked into Lily's apartment, she noticed her tall friend was also there.Lilly gave her a suspicious look as she knew what the urgent matter Anna was talking about. “Anna, don't say that your husband waited all night in front of my apartment building,” said Lilly.Anna took a seat casually next to Jacob on the couch. “Why are you here?” She asked Jacob to avoid answering Lilly's question. She just can’t tell them that Ibrahom’s romantic action made her heart melt and in the middle of the night she ran in his arms, they are going to tease her for that.Lilly, on the other hand, couldn't just let her go. “Anna, you're avoiding answering my question.”Jacob didn't even dare to look at Anna. When he

The last two weeks have been the most peaceful and calm in Anna and Ibrahim's marriage life. It feels like the marriage that she has been dreaming of is slowly coming true now that Ibrahim has truly shown her his interest in her and proving through his actions that he wanted her to be in his life. He usually leaves the house early in the morning, but now he really doesn't want to skip breakfast with his lovely wife, so he left the house slightly late. He devoted most of his time to work, so he used to stay until late just for the sake of his work, but the presence of Anna in his life gave him a reason to come home earlier so that he could eat dinner with her. If you told him that Ibrahim's habits had changed a little since his marriage, he'd admit it, but he still likes them; the lonely and black and white life has now been filled with color thanks to Anna. When the clock hit nine a.m. in the morning, Ibrahim and Anna were still wallowing in their deep sleep gaining their energy whic

Three weeks laterAnna arched her sore body as she got up from her seat. She's had such a boring day that all she's done is eat and sleep. “Ibrahim, how many hours more do we have to reach there?” She inquired because she had been sleeping and waking up several times but they still had not arrived at their destination.Ibrahim stroked her hair gently. “We'll reach Paris in an hour.” He informed her. He knows she has been so moody lately because she got bored sitting in the same place for so many hours. Thankfully, he reserved a business class seat for both of them, or else he'll hear her complaining about her back hurting from sitting for too long.She let out a sigh and pouted. “It's been fourteen hours, and we've just now arrived in Paris?”Ibrahim laughed slightly. “It takes an hour and fifteen minutes to go from Paris to Zurich, then a four-hour car trip to get to Zermatt. It will be exhausting, but I assure you that this trip will be worthwhile.” Said Ibrahim, still playing with

“Happy birthday to you…... Happy birthday to you my dear Ibrahim… Happy birthday to you….”A wide smile couldn't have left Ibrahim’s lips since this morning. It's his birthday, and it might be one of the days he hated the most, but he could see that his wife, Anna, has been so eager preparing everything, starting with the food, cakes, and a small party. He doesn't want to make her feel bad so he decided to do things the way she wanted. He blew the candle, and everyone clapped their hands cheerfully.“I appreciate it.” He smiled.Ibrahim looked around, and for some reason he could feel the warmth that's shared between all of them, and it’s all because thanks to Anna, she's the mastermind behind it all. He has told her several times that there's no need to throw a party, but she insisted that it's just amongst close friends. As much as he hates celebrating his birthday, he just let her invite four people, which only includes Alan, Jessica, Jacob, and Lilly. She used it as a chance for h
