5 Diary of an abused wife episode 4

The car came to a stop and she wished it didn't end so soon. Ismail looked at the house and back at the pretty lady sitting in his car. They had meaningful conversations on their way it felt like they had known each other for a long time and he knew he definitely wasn't going to take much time courting her.

Kameela smiled at him and said " well this is me . Thank you so much for the ride". She went to open the door but he stopped her and asked for her number and if they could go out somewhere nice sometime soon. She quickly gave in elated that she would see him soon enough. They said their goodbyes and she went inside the house.

She happily strode in only to see her mum sitting in the veranda cooking. Well that's an improvement she thought happily. She greeted her mum and started telling her about how the price of foodstuffs had increased. Mama couldn't help but notice the happy mood her daughter had yet she was complaining and ranting, something must have happened. She abruptly cut her short of the story Kameela was telling by saying " Enough of these endless market tales , you seem very happy tell me what really happened . Did you meet someone" mama had a mischievous glint in her eyes whilst teasing her young daughter.

Kameela gasped as her eyes went wide at how her mother hit the nail on the head as to why she was really happy, she was hoping she wouldn't pick on the happy mood by diverting her attention to the market matters but indeed this was her smart mum after all .

Kameela couldn't help but to blush and that just encouraged mama to question her the more. So she told her everything that happened. Mama felt her heart swell that a man has managed to warm up her daughters strong heart but she was quick to advice and warn her of the ups and downs to being in a mans company.

    Later that evening, Kameela sat at the cooking area preparing dinner. When she was done cooking she dished the food into two plate and went to call her mother. As they sat down to eat Kameela decided to bring up the idea of her going back to work the following day and asked for mamas opinion.

     Mama immediately agreed and said she would also join her and that she was thinking the same thing just this morning and also that she was tired of sitting at home moping all day and night. Hearing that, Kameela was elated. They were done eating and she packed the dirty dishes to the back yard to wash.

     Finally done with the days work, Kameela retired to her room tired. She quickly took a bath and changed her clothes. Already on her bed ready to sleep, she just couldn't. She kept tossing and turning during the wee hours of the night which was something she never did. Her mind was not at peace because ismail  didn't call her as he promised he would.

     She thought of calling him but shut the idea away because it was quite late and just like most northern girls she had pride. She couldn't call a guy, she would seem desperate which she wasn't or maybe she was. She thought. She decided to force herself to sleep anyhow and that she would find time to call him in the morning if he doesn't.
