5 months later:

"Kezr, Iam scared" I said sounding absolutely terrified.

"Rozella, this is the 100th time I am hearing you say that shit, open it or I'll tear it apart" Kezr said slamming his coffee cup on the kitchen counter causing the coffee to spill out.

"You're cleaning that" I rolled my eyes and looked back at the envelope in my hand.

"What if it's far from your house?" I asked him with my eyes widen.

He came beside me and grabbed me by my waist pushing my back into his broad chest. He placed his chin on my shoulder and whispered seductively, "Well, if it's far from OUR house-"

I shrugged him away not liking him being a horny Kezr when I am this terrified.

"Not the time to be horny, I am so close to pissing myself and you're here joking?" He chuckled and spinned me around so we were face to face.

"Just care about you getting into a college, not about our distance. We'll manage. We always do."

I smiled at him and nodded while taking a deep breath.

I looked down at the envelope in my hand and Kezr squeezed my hand in a firm grip, telling me he's there. And he'll stay.

With shaky hands, I carefully opened the envelope taking my time.

I heard Kezr tsk and he snatched the envelope from my hands, tearing it open.

He gave it back to me and I just looked at him, too nervous to care about what he did.

I opened the envelope and even Kezr looked eager.

Accepted to University of Alaska.

Bewildered. That's what I was.

"I-I got a-accepted...?" I dropped down on the floor hidding my face in my palm.

I felt Kezr's hand on my arm and he pulled me towards him and I cried while clutching his shirt tightly.

"You did it, you did it babe. I am so proud of you. So proud" Kezr whispered to me while he caressed my forehead.

I felt relief to hear those words from him but I didn't care, all I was sad about was that we'd be away.

"That's not the issue." He sighed and leaned back so he could look at me.

"Zelli, we talked about this." I nodded and wiped my tears from the back of my hand.

"I know! But it's just.... I don't want to cause any problems in our marriage."

Suddenly, he puckered my lips and my eyes widened. He narrowed his eyes and got closer to my face. We were probably a micrometer apart.

"You. Are. Not. Causing. Any. Fucking. Thing. You hear me?" I nodded but he raised his eyebrows and I gulped.

"Yes, I heard. Loud and clear." He smirked. He leaned back and winked at me causing me to blush.

My eyes widen when the realization hit me like a ton of bricks.

I jumped out from Kezr's hold and stood on the floor jumping and screaming, "I GOT IN!!"

He flinched but chuckled none the less, "Yes, you did it!" He came up to me and picked me by my waist, spinning me around with me squealing and laughing.

"UA HERE SHE COMES!"

•••••••••••••••••••••••

"Kezr leave me." He shook his head and held me tightly.

"Nuh-uh, lemme hold you for sometime." He said and kissed my neck making my breath hitch.

"I'll miss you, I'll miss your touch, I'll miss your kisses, your moans, your giggles, your 'Kezr you son of a biscuit!'-" he said causing me to laugh.

"-yes that pretty laugh of yours too, I'll miss having you as my assistant, that new one is not good. At all. But among all of that, I'll miss bending you over my desk-" My eyes widen and a guy walked by, looking at us weirdly.

"Kezr, that's it. Fudging stop." I whisper-yelled causing him to glare at the boy which caused the boy to look down ashamed and enter the college building.

"Let them see that you're mine. You remember the rules. Don't you?" I rolled my eyes at his childish instincts.

"Yes. I do. Rule 1. Don't talk to any boys, unless I am dying. Rule 2. Don't give anybody my number. Rule 3. Study hard. Rule 4. Text you every hour. Rule 5. No going to college parties. Rule 6. No taking drugs/alcohol. Rule 7. Wearing my wedding ring 25/8. Lastly, enjoy as much as possible." I took a deep breath after feeling the air getting knocked out of my lungs.

He pouted and I rolled my eyes knowing something dumb was coming my way, "You forgot rule 8!" He whined and I squint my eyes at him trying to remember.

I realized but I acted dumb, "What rule?"

He shook his head and flared his nostrils, "Rule 9 was enjoy, Rule 8 was to text me good morning, good night, kisses, and misses texts."

I threw my head back and groaned, "I didn't say it because I already planned to do that. I thought it was obvious." He rolled his eyes causing me to pout.

"I'll miss you..... Will you?" I nodded eagerly causing him to smile widely.

"I'll miss your cooking, I'll miss your Cologne... Oh god! Your cologne!" I took off my bag and fished into it, I sighed when I found 8 of his hoodies which I sprayed cologne on causing the bottle to finish.

"What will I wear if you have all my fucking clothes?" I glared at him and he looked away.

"I don't know. Figure something out. You said you wouldn't give me the bottle, so I did this. My problem is bigger than yours. Got it?" He nodded.

"And as for the rules.... I have some rules too." He looked up and chuckled.

"Sure Madame, state your rules" he said leaning closer to me and trapping me between the car bonet and him.

I blushed. No Zella, where's your confidence? Show him!

I nodded at my subconsciousness causing Kezr to laugh knowing what was going inside my head.

This guy knows you more than I know you.

"Rule 1, No talking to other girls, Rule 2, No flirting with your new assistant although she's married, I know you." He chuckled.

"I do it to only get a reaction out of my lovely wife." I scrunched my nose at him in mock causing him to pinch my nose.

"Rule 3, Text me how your day went. Rule 4, whenever I visit, I want you to cook me that chilli gravy that I love." He nodded causing me to smile.

"I packed some for you, check your bag once you go inside. And if you need more, just tell me, I'll bring more. Just please don't go into the kitchen on your own to make some..... Don't want the building to catch fire." I slapped his chest and he chuckled and placed his forehead on mine.

"Is that all?" I nodded and without sparing a second he slammed his lips on mine.

I replied to his kiss and he pushed his tongue in. I let him dominate me and he groaned against my lips causing an involuntary moan to escape my mouth.

"I have something for you." I said breaking the kiss and breathing heavily while my forehead rests on his.

I turned around and got a little box out from my bag's back pocket.

He looked at the box with furrowed eyebrows and a little excitement swimming in his eyes.

Yeah, Kezr love surprises.

"Here." I said and took his hand in mine, opened his palm and placed the little box in it.

"What's this?" He asked looking at the box and then at me.

I shrugged and he eagerly opened the little box.

"I swear if it's dog poop that you pranked me with, I'll not miss you." He said with a grimace causing me to laugh remembering when I did that.

He opened the box and his jaw dropped open slightly.

"Read what it says" I said feeling excited.

"K for-.....Rozella!!" He sighed and clenched his jaw.

"K for Rozella? Nah! I told you to learn your alphabets but you didn't listen to me." He glared at me causing me to shut my mouth and bit the inside of my cheek.

"Read!" I whined and he shook his head and looked down.

"Roze-" He said looking down hesitantly.

"Read!" I shouted and he flinched and looked down.

"K... For kindness" he spoke and I smirked.

"Wear it... Please." He shook his head but then looked up and his eyes soften.

"Rozella, I am a teddy bear only to you, and look what you take me as. Imagine people doing the same."

"I am your wife. Are they?" He shook his head and I placed my hand on his jacket pulling him closer to me.

"I love you." I whispered to him, pecking his lips.

"I love you" he said and winked at me.

"Wear it?" He nodded and smiled at me, causing me to squeal and jump on the car bonet to get to his height.

He turned around and gave me the necklace. I clasped it behind his neck and spun him to face me.

"Eeee!!! You look soooo dreamy" I bit my lip looking at his piercings, leather jacket, black pants, silver necklace and my rose gold necklace contrasting it all.

"Lookin' good?"

"Lovely."

"I think you mean handsome."

I giggled and said, "Yeah... We can say that." He winked at me and took my hand in his.

"I love you. Don't worry." I said and his smiled dropped and a frown took its place.

"I'll miss you, very much."

"You can come and always meet me." I giggled causing him to snap at me.

"Why are you taking this so easy? I am dying here and you're giggling?"

"Oh hush. You're not dying. And I will miss you too. But you told us we'll manage. So, we'll manage." He nodded and left my hand pecking my lips and letting me go.

I looked back at him to see him waving at me while a sad look on his face.

The truth was that I was hurting really bad but I didn't want Kezr to worry about me. He always gets angry and sad when he sees tears in my eyes, so I took a deep breath and started walking without looking back so he can't see the tears in my eyes.

I went inside the building and peeked through the window and saw him slowly lowering his hand. He scratched his forehead with his thumb (he told me that this is something he does when his chest or heart hurts) and went to his car. He sat in and drove away and suddenly it all felt real.

I am here without anyone. Without Kezr. All alone.

Without. Kezr.

Taking out a tissue from my pant pocket I wiped my few fallen tears and started walking.

The university was really big, probably like a maze. And I knew my clumsy butt would definitely get lost in here in these 3 years.

I saw a girl on her phone standing by the lockers, "H-hi. I am new here so can you please tell me where is the Dean?"

The girl in front of me was really short. Even shorter than me... Probably like a 5'1.

She had beautiful mermaid hair, which were in a high ponytail, It really looked cool.

She wore a golden three piece suit.

Hopefully we can be friends.

"Yeah, sure of course. Let me take you there. Is that alright with you?"

I snapped out of my thoughts of admiring her and I smiled at her, "Y-yeah of course. sure. why not? Of course. Yeah. Okay. Yes."

I was really nervous to talk to someone new. These past five months I have only known my family and didn't meet any new people.

She laughed and shook her hehead, "No need to be nervous around me. By the way, I am Hiba. Hiba sheikh."

I smiled at her, "You have a very pretty name. I am Rozella. Rozella Heznaya."

She laughed and shook her head, "I know, I saw you with Kezr in the news."

I blushed and looked down.

Great! Now she'll think of me just how media portrays me, a gold digger and a W-word.

She pushed my chin to look at her.

"Don't worry, I like you already, I don't think of you any different. I know how it feels to get judged."

Yaas!!!

I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs in joy but I knew I didn't want to blow up the chance of finally having a friend by scaring her and screaming like a maniac.

"I am Muslim. Get judged alot." My eyes widen and a wide smile coated my lips.

Without thinking twice I pulled her into a hug which caused her to freeze.

"I-Iam sorry, I was just excited to finally have a friend..... We're friends.. Right?" I said pushing myself away from her.

"No, of course not. Don't be sorry. And yes. I'd love to have such a beautiful girl as my friend."

Friend. Beautiful?

I squealed loudly causing her to laugh.

God! I am embarrassing.

"Let's go?" I nodded and she started walking with me beside her.

Kezr would definitely be proud of me.

Maybe these 3 years aren't going to be that bad...... Maybe?
