Feeling a heavy weight holding me on my stomach, making me  open my eyes. Only for them to be assaulted by  rays of sunlight that is coming from an open window. closing them involuntary and opening them again, rapidly blinking until my vision becomes clear as my eyes get use to the light.

Looking around me trying to figure out where am I, only to realize that am in my room. sudden snoring sound comes from closer to me making me move my head around only to remember the heaviness that I felt when working up.


Immediately looking downward I find Aziz soundly asleep on my abdomen with his hands enfolding my left palm. that's when I feel the heating that surrounds my left palm. puzzled on why is he in my room and what happened. try to figure out on what's going on, my eyes continue to look around my clue finding any clue on what happened. that's when my eyes are drawn to a black head scarf that is drape on my desk chair. 


Suddenly memories start to bombard me one after the other until, I remember of everything that happened.  moving my eyes to the sleeping figure of Aziz, deep inside am thankful that this wonderful man was there to help me. ' Ya Rabb may you shower your love and blessings upon this man. as has always been there for me and has shown me that I might be an orphan but he is family and that not every family has to be bonded by blood.' feeling wetness on both my cheeks , I move my right hand and wipe both of my cheeks.


It seems that my small movements have disturbed Aziz's sleep, as he opened his green orbs and arose his head to stare at me. Then he blinked his eyes so many times like a cute little kid who can't believe that his parents have gotten him the toy that he has wanted for a long time. By the way he was blinking so hard, I thought they're going to pop of their sockets. Making me laugh so hard clutching my stomach with right hand and my head thrown back.

when my laughter died down. I found Aziz staring at me with amazement. I started to feel nervous, as he kept staring at so hard, as if he's trying to figure me out. " what's wrong did I do something wrong?" I asked as worry started to set in. "Nope....." he answered back popping the P and then he abruptly got up letting go of my hand and moved to stand to wards the window " quite contrary, my dear, everything is perfect" he added. He turned his back to me and stared at the window. Giving of a picture of a man who has a lot of things in his mind. " are you sure?" I had to ask because it's unlike Aziz to be so distracted. " yeah... my little pumpkin don't worry" the way he answered it's like he's trying to convince himself.

After a few moments and the sun started to set casting a reddish orange shadow across my room. That's when he turned to look at me and smiled though I could clearly see that it doesn't reach his eyes. " try to get some rest my dear. The episode you just had wasn't a small one" his tone came out soft as he started to make his way back to my bed and sat down on the chair that he had previously occupied.

Leaning back to the headboard coupling it up with the soft pillows under my head. I started to feel sleepy as my eyes began to drop despite of my resistance. Soon darkness surrounded me but faintly I could feel a feather kiss in my forehead and my blanket brought up to cover my whole body.

ANWAR'S POV

"Anwar please, please am begging you don't listen to him" I could hear Nazreen's voice is pleading to me, in the dark Hall that seems not to have any light and Whenever I blink my eyes I can't seem to see the light. "Anwar, don't believe him just please look at me in my eyes and see for yourself if I'm lying", I hear her voice whimpering to me and this time it sounds so close that, If in a way that if I can move my hand in front of me I might be able to touch her.But it is all just in my head I was dreaming of her brings nothing but severe pain in my heart knowing that when I wake up she won't be in my arms oh my bed and I won't be seeing her beautiful smile how dreamy eyes whose color reminds me of the Ocean.

"Anwar, believe me please. I swear on the Almighty Lord ,I will never betray you I can never do that to you" This time her voice sounded real and It's as if she's speaking from behind me. Making me turn around trying to catch her, Hoping that deep inside my heart I can get just a small glance at her that my eyes can see the light that she wants hard. The light that shone into her eyes making even my gloomy sad days, Be filled with color that made my heart gain hope in my chest no not my chest more like my heart beat for once in my life.

"Nazreen, where are you?" I called out to have my voice frantically Shaking as I look around. But my eyes only meet with darkness and not even a shadow that a person is near me I move my hand trying to feel through the walls in the dark holy hoping that I can touch as all I see is darkness that surrounds me I don't know where am I at, maybe I have died and this is how my personal hell looks like. Hell that brings the voice of the woman that holds my heart the woman that I had betrayed so badly that there is no Redemption. Maybe I am locked up into this dark awful place To be tortured for eternity by the voice of the woman who pleaded for me to believe her as she had once believed in me she asked for the benefit of doubt.

"Nazreen my beloved one I believe you, Just come to me near me or even closer to me. I don't care I just want to feel your presence that you really are here with me. I promise I won't hurt you I'll protect you please just let me know your near me" I pleaded with the voice that's so Similar To that of my angel's. Feeling my voice breaks as my body shakes the sobs That seem to be racking all over my body. However, my heartbeat increases as I met with silence and no answer from my beloved angel.

But then, suddenly I feel something brushing my shoulder if it wasn't for my highly trained sensibility That is a mafia king I am required to have in order to detect any danger or harm that paused on my way, I wouldn't have felt the touch. As soon as I sense it it is gone it's as if Nothing touched me.

A few moments later I see it again but this time it's as if someone's in folding their hands with mine knows all too soon the hairs on the back of my neck stand up alerting me of someone's presence behind me "But it's too late to believe me you've already killed me and Our unborn child" Voice whispers in my ear in a way that sends chills down my spine As it sounds so demonic, taunting me on my biggest mistake.

Feeling as if the air has been cut from all around it becomes difficult for me to breathe as I try to close the air on the dark tunnel that surrounds me a suffocation to becomes Difficult for me Bear as am struggling to bring air in my lungs. That's when my vision becomes blurry thinking that finally this is the end. My eyes move to the left side only about 15 m away I see her it's is As if she's a figure of my own imagination. I see her draped in a white robe. She's standing there staring at me and then takes a step closer to me until she reaches me. And when she does my angel kneels down before me looking at her at this moment her face seems so pale it's as if she has never seen the sun happy sleeps so pink that I can almost see or compare it to pinkish reddish color. her big blue eyes look so peaceful and serene it's as if she's never seen the horrors of this world at first hand both of her hands touch my face And then a pink soft lips kiss my forehead.
