CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT

I finished cooking an hour ago. Ethan and I are at the dining table. I have to feed him his meal because his right hand is broken, but In Shaa Allah, we will have his cast removed by tomorrow. I can’t believe it’s been two weeks since Ethan had an accident. Alhamdulilah, he is recovering well. For the past two weeks, I have been staying at Ethan’s mom’s place. I wanted to stay at a hotel, but Ethan and his mom refused. Ethan wanted me to stay at his home, but we all know how much that is a terrible idea considering the feelings I have for him. His mom refused to allow me to stay at a hotel. I come to Ethan’s house every day to take care of him and go back in the evening to his mom’s place.

“Adina, I have meant to ask you, what are your plans once I get better. Are you still moving back to Nigeria” Ethan asks the one question I have not been able to answer myself.
