Chapter 55 - Promised

***

Asahd's POV:

That night, I returned to the apartment and greeted Djafar. When I saw Saïda seated close to him, my heart skipped a beat.

'She's gorgeous.'

She was casually manipulating her phone and when I greeted her, she looked up at me and smiled a little.

"Hellooo. How was your day?" she asked casually.

"Not bad, not bad."

"Alright. Lemme warm the food then while you shower."

"Alright."

I then retired to my room to go change and shower.

Immediately I was done and stepped out of my room, I went to join Saïda who was now putting food in the plates. I approached her.

"Hey..."

She turned and I immediately hugged her tight. She hugged me back, slowly rubbing my back like she always did. My heart was beating fast against her chest and I could also feel hers.

We cuddled for a while and I kissed her neck before we slowly parted.

"Seems you missed me." she mused with pink cheeks and went back to what she was doing.

"You know I did."
