*MY WORLD*
EPISODE 37
Khadijah's POV
The bright sun rays banged on the window of our room and woke me up from my sweet sleep. I saw Jameelah sleeping next beside me but decided to let her sleep some more,she had lesser sleep because of AbuBakr. I went directly to the washroom to have my fine shower.
I peacefully came out and saw my little angels,who are now big girls standing in front of me with two plates of breakfast,probably for Jameelah and I.
"As-salaamu alaikum big sees,how's the morning? Mum and Aunt have made breakfast for you both today" Saaleha announced
"Wa alaikumus salaam my pretty ladies...my morning is better when it is blessed by your faces and you see your other crazy big sis" i said pointing at Jameelah who was in another world. I softly tapped her at the back to wake her up now.
"Why are you caressing my back so softly,for a second i thought it was Al..""Ok ok ma,the kids brought you breakfast" how will I let her finish her sentence,this girl! Food is the only thing that can move her though.
With that she jumped from the bed and rushed to the bathroom.
I had some chatting period with my little angels,guys they are now pretty young ladies...just looking at them mesmerizes my heart wAllaah...just Maa shaa Allah,and they look more alike by the day. I am missing my dearest big sisturrrh! Fatimah."Girls,I want to call Fatimah,my twin sister" I informed since they have each other,I have Fatimah.
"Ohh we forgot to tell you,mum said we should bring you a good news from her" Sameerah informed
"What good news?" They both smiled,looked at each other and then at me.
"Fatimah has a baby boyyyy!" They chorused together.
"Whaaat? When? Why didn't she tell me first?" I fired questions.
"Ok ok madam,ask her on your own,call her"
"Yeah right,i would do that anyway" I ran for my phone"Salaamun alaikum"I showed disappointment through my voice
"Wa alaikumus salaam warahmatullaah my pinkyyyy...why no Angelina today?" Look at her asking¿
"No Angelina because My Angelina never used to hide things from me"
"Ohh dear baby,i was coming to call you after mum...please don't feel bad,i would have even called you first but my phone was with Khalid who thought of calling mum first. Forgive your Angelinaa." She is just never unsweet,how can I be mad at my only big sis,my favorite person.
"It's ok Angelinaa,I miss you" you know I am forming tears...I can't imagine how much I even miss her. We only talk on the phone
"I miss you too pinky...how are you doing lately?""Well I am all happy these days,since Zainaah's wedding...no worries!"
"Ohh my dear cousin..how was her wedding? You know I couldn't attend because of my then big belly" I smiled
"I understand dear,I explained everything to her too....how are you now and where is my newest nephew?"
"Ohh I am fine,just a little tired. Your nephew,here he is moving his eyes everywhere" kids!♡
"Awwwn,I wish he was here so that I would hug him to sleep...have you thought of a name for him?"
"Yes dear,you know i am fond of doing that...I wish to call him Zaid Mahmoud" I smiled like hell
"Then I will call him Zaid Dadda...he is my Dad's namesake!"
"Yeah right,he is our Dad...I gotta go dear,will talk to you later inn shaa Allaah"
"Bye then,Allaah hafiz.""Who was that? Taphaaa?" Jameelah a.k.a madam teaser is ready to tease.
"No,it's Fatimah...she's got a new baby boy!"
"Maa shaa Allaah,Maa Shaa Allaah!" We hugged each other on the great news. There we were chit chatting and having our delicious breakfast when Jameelah's phone started ringing.
"Tell Jannah that I am not releasing you now,period!"
"It's not Jannah,its Zainaab,the new bride" I took the phone from her and answered the call."Hey Zeeee!"
"Cuzzoooo...i miss you twoo!" She shouted on the side of the line.
"We miss you more dear,how is Azeez?" We both asked the same question and laughed.
"Huh,you two weirdos,Azeez is getting breakfast for the both of us" we looked at each other and Jameelah replied
"Oy ouy ouy...Mr Romantic!" I know Zainaah is being shy over there.
"Gotta go,you know I am married now and timeless!"This girl is unbelievable.
"I taught her to concentrate on her marriage but not this way" Jameelah said with a sided mouth.
"I knew it,she learnt all these craziness from you.huh!"Mustapha's POV
I have not been myself since yesternight...I didn't want the morning to come before waking up from yesterdays bad dream but guess what...I woke up and realised it was all not any dream
I did not want to get out of bed so I got myself wrapped properly in my blanket.I heard knocks on my door,I was not in the mood to talk to anyone but I can't be rude. "Come in"I saw sister in law with my breakfast.
"Sister I am not hungry" I said turning my face to the other side
"You need to eat Mustapha,If you fall this weak then how will you fight for your love?" I think sister in law is right. Since no marriage has taken place yet,I still have time to fight for my love and Inn shaa Allaah,I wont let my love fail. Khadijah,I won't break your heart and trust again,never!
How can I even be so forgetful,I got hurt and forgot about the pain Khadijah will have to go through if she hears this! No,I cannot let that happen.
"You are right sister" I sat up properly "I still have sometime to make things right...keep my breakfast for me on the table,I will eat after taking shower." With that she left. I got more energetic and kinda excited too.***
I decided to spend this day at home and talk to mom to make her change her mind on this decision that she has taken.
I sat on the living room waiting for mum to come and sit too to have her resting time which I will use to my benefit.I waited for ten minutes before she showed up,those ten minutes were like ten hours for me,really.
I don't know how to start...I saw her take her seat and looked at me,then she acted as if she never saw me.
"Ma,I want to talk to you" I started slowly
"If it's about yesterday's topic then you please do not waste your energy"
"Mum,you believe in love right?" I asked to see how to make my dear beautiful mummy understand that her son is in love,intense love
"Yes I do."
"Then why can't you understand that I love someone else...how will I marry a girl that I know nothing about?"
"With time,I am sure you will like this girl and forget your other love that you are talking about" seriously? When I couldn't forget her for years,Am I gonna forget her now?
"Mum how sure are you?"
"Hundred percent...this girl I've chosen for you has the best of characters,has the most beautiful face and we all like her,you will too,very soon inn shaa Allaah.""I dont know why you want to make life difficult for me? You used to be my well wisher mum" I tried to touch the emotional part of my mum
"I am still your well wisher Mustapha,that's why I chose the best girl for you,don't you trust your mum?" Things are not working
"I trust you more than myself but for once,give me the chance to prove to you that my choice is better than yours." She just smiled.
"You are only saying that because you are in love,but don't worry,when you see your to-be-wife,you will forget all the other girls of the universe." I don't know how to convince my mum anymore.I moved out of the living room and headed to brother Uthman.
"Bro I need your help"
"What can I do for you?" He asked concentrating on his laptop,this guy should atleast pay me for his problems that I've solved man.
"I think you heard that mum wants me to marry one girl...I want you to convince mum that I love someone else" I eagerly looked at him waiting for an answer but before he could say anything...I heard Mum shouting my name. I acted as if I didn't even hear her
"Go and answer" brother Uthman,who was also trying to dismiss me,said.
I clumsily moved my legs towards the living room with the hope that maybe mum will change her mind and give me some good news something that will elevate my spirit but instead she was all smiles and happily said
"The girl will be here tomorrow inn shaa Allah,make sure you make yourself look the best...You should talk to her and we'll see whether you two will like each other" with mum,I can feel My life is ruined!(✏TIMABELLE💛)
