CHAPTER 26
Today was Salma's wedding. I hurried to get
my purse as we were running late already and Ridwan was already outside in the car. He had
complained about how I always made him late to events.
"Hey, sorry I am late" I said, as I hurried into the car.
"Salma just called, they are about to start" Ridwan said as he drove off.
We got there in about 15 minutes, no traffic, the road was quit free for a weekend.
We got there as they were just about to start. When we got in, we were looking around in the venue to
see where to sit then we saw Ridwan's mum wave at us to know where they all where sitted.
It was really a small gathering like Salma had said. It was a done in a garden with beautiful
decorations,it was very sophisticated yet simple.
"Hello ma" I said as I sat next to Ridwan's mum.
"How are you my child and how is the baby" She asked with a smile.
"Fine ma" I replied smiling back at her.
They said their vows and within minutes, the reception stated and people were served with drinks and
food in a small but extremely beautiful hall that we had transferred to.
I sat next to Ridwan as I watches the couples dance and it brought back memories that I hadn't
realized when a tear dropped from my eyes as I smiled watching them. They looked so happy, one
could easily see it on their faces. I was extremely happy for Salma though, she deserved it and had
even gone through so much before she got here and it made me even happier that she finally found the
love of her life.
"Hey, why are you sitting by your self" Salma said as she pulled out a chair to sit next to me.
"He had to help Dad with something about work I think" I answered.
"You look so beautiful, your dress is amazing" I said to Salma as I admired her look.
"Thanks dear and thank you for coming" She said
"I wouldn't miss it for the world and you know" I said smiling.
"And congrats too, mother told me" Salma said smiling as she looked down at my tummy and I rubbed
my hand on it with a smile.
"Thank you"
"You look so happy today and I haven't seen you like this before. You must really like him" I said to
Salma with a smile.
"I really do, you know what, we met just 3 months ago and he proposed last week. He said "why wait
when all he wanted was to spend forever with me anyways". He is the best man I know and I love how
he loves me, how he cares for me and how he wants the best for me.he is all I have been look for in a This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
man" Salma said as her face lit up with every word. She loves him and one could easily tell.
"I am extremely happy for you" I said with a smile.They both reminded me of when I and Ridwan just
got married. The romance and every other thing.
"Thanks dear" Salma said and I leaned in for a hug from her.
"Can I borrow Salma for some time" I looked to see who it was talking and it was Salma's groom
Khalid.
"Sure" I said with a smile.
"And congrats to you two again" I added
"Thank you" khalid replied.
"Make sure you don't leave without letting me know okay?" Salma said before leaving
"I won't" I said
I watched smiling as khalid held Salma's hand and they walked on together.
