Rayyana's POV
I sat down on my sofa with Sabha, and Rabia. Soojin had left as soon as she was told that Nadeem was dead. Rabia shook her head in confusion wondering why she wasn't told about all this.
"It's all my fault." Sabha whimpered for the 500th time tonight. I wanted to say something, but she was kind of right.
"How could you do this Sabha?" Rabia spoke for the first time since we told her what happened. "Who was there for you when you were alone? Soojin, who was there for you when you needed a shoulder to cry on? Soojin and this is what you do to her?"
Sabha cried some more "I know and I said I was sorry, it was a moment of weakness for me I couldn't think straight Rabia, the man I called my dad left us and got remarried. And he lied to us about sending us money, he doesn't."
She sniffles before continuing "do you know how hard it was to get here? I had to take a loan." I looked at Rabia "Well then why didn't you tell us?"
"BECAUSE THE LAST THING I NEED IS PITY!" She yelled at us getting up. "HE LEFT ME, SOOJIN LEFT ME, AND NOW YOU 2 ARE GOING TO MAYBE EVEN AMIR!"
I winced and felt sort of bad for Sabha. After all she was doing this because her family had nowhere to go.
"I can't... I'm sorry you guys okay? I... I'm going back." She grabbed her suitcase and left the hotel.
Sabha's POV
"How long will it take?" I asked the man behind the counter, he looked at the screen and said "3 hours." I nodded and sighed as I sat down on one of the airport chairs.
I was a bad person, I had let my fantasy loose and for that I had lost everything and everyone. I had nothing left.
"Sabha." I turned and gasped when I saw who it was.
"Maha?"
"So what is this? Some sort of pity party?" I asked refusing to touch the coffee Maha had ordered from the airport cafe. She sighed and put down her cup "Sabha, how are you?"
I scoffed "Fine." I looked away not wanting to say anything else to her. "Sabha I have something important to tell you." She sounded serious, but then again Maha was always like this and look how that turned out.
"What Maha, what could you possibly have left to say?" Maha bit her lip and took a deep breath
"Sabha Ali, we were friends before and then I had let you down. I'm sorry for that, and I know what I'm about to say is going to shock you but please listen to me. I need your moral support through all this okay?"
I raised an eyebrow at her "I'll think about it when you tell me." She took a breath and the next words that left her lips had me stunned.
"Your father... he married my mom." I stared at her waiting for her to say that it was a joke and bully me and leave me like she always did.
But she didn't, she instead sat there nervously staring at her shoes.
"We're stepsisters."
