OUR DESTINY

part 23

Bashir P.O.V

I have been wanting to talk to halima but she doesn't even want to listen for the past 2weeks we've been quarreling over my trips it's also difficult for me to travel leaving her behind and now am even scared to go back home I really don't know how she will react I booked an early morning flight to Abuja as soon as I could and Alhamdulillah I got 10am flight hopefully before zuhr prayer I should be with my beautiful wife my angry birds I did the best I could by getting her favourite chocolate, perfumes and flowers I hope her anger will subsidy just by seeing me or her surprise with that I rush to the airport and was on my way back home and I couldn't believe my eyes after reaching Abuja because I told yaya saleem to help me convince so she could come to Abuja and we will go back to Kaduna at least I really have to make it up to her just saying sorry won't fix everything I need to make her feel how sorry I really am and I never meant to hurt her feelings by any means it's just the way of my work life but I will try my best to balance it.

Hajiya farida P.O.V

It's Been 4days now that Alhaji left to Abuja no phone call and no messages I just hope that his fine I have been trying to contact him but all his numbers are not going through and Yusuf he doesn't even care about his own father I have been trying to make him see sense that him being the only son if he becomes more concerned about his father one day all these properties will belong to him but no his such a useless boy to understand my point of view.

Flashback

25years ago after  Aysha left Alhaji shamsu his life has turned upside down everything was no longer the way it was for him he has completely changed out of regrets and fear that he might  end up with a miserable life because he was the caused of Aysha's death it was so difficult for him to move on it took him almost 5years to get over her and his mistakes he wanted to go and apologise but he didn't know how to face her family members with that he decided to seek for Allah's forgiveness and moved on with his life one  of his late father's friends suggested that he should marry his daughter  even though he wasn't ready to settle down again after what he has done to Aysha he doesn't have faith in himself or any other relationship but still he wishes to move on so he accepted and they got married  after a year hajiya farida his wife gave birth to a boy he was so happy and grateful that finally after all his sins Allah decided to bless him with a boy so he named him after his father Muhammad Yusuf  everyone was so happy he was ready to spend his last kobo on yusuf but unfortunately yusuf grew up to be a spoil brat because of his mother she made me believe everything his father owned in these world belongs to him and him alone with that yusuf doesn't even respect his own father he couldn't wait for him to pass away so he could inherits his wealth and hajiya farida since from the beginning she doesn't even love him all she knew was that their relationship was arranged and his rich what more could she asked for  seeing the kind of life Alhaji shamsu was involved in he decided to keep himself busy by travelling around he did all he can to make sure that yusuf turned to a responsible young man but all in vain at long last he gave up and let him be but the love he has for yusuf  couldn't stop him from spending any amount of money he owns with the hope that one day yusuf will change but as Time was moving yusuf was going astray he doesn't listen to anybody except his mother Alhaji shamsu tried so hard to make his wife understand but no she doesn't even have his Time  the day he approaches her about his business trip to Abuja he really wanted yusuf to go with him so he can start showing him the way of his business but she said no that his still too young to understand such things Alhaji shamsu already knew his life is ruined he doesn't have any responsible child that could take after his empire when his gone ya Allah  please forgive my sins guide my son and make him to be more responsible with that dua Alhaji shamsu left to Abuja the next morning he was driving but he mind was at home thinking about his only son he was so deep in thoughts that he crashed into the car in front of him all he could remember at that very moment was his past life and his only son yusuf.

Halima's P.O.V

Bashir decided to come back today I was forced to travel to Abuja even though am no longer angry with him but I can't just given in that very easily  it was 2pm I took my bath and dressed in lace brown with golden skirt and blouse I have already made all the cooking  and I went back to my room pretending to be asleep I heard his salam but I didn't answer insisted I turned back around I know his scared of even approaching me but still he came and sat next to me he was very close to my face he peaked me still I didn't move he hugged me and said am sorry babyna please forgive me I promise you that I won't try anything such thing again I opened my eyes and just stared at him after a moment of silence I stood up and was about going to the living room when he blocked my way and started apologising I know it's not his fault but still there's no harm in torturing him a little I just walked away to the living room and he followed behind with a small gift bag and he hold me tightly from behind please babyna am really sorry forgive me I promise from now onwards we will travel together no matter where am travelling to with that I just started laughing and we sat down and discussed about everything like we should we ate our lunch and spend the rest of the day cuddling each other I really missed you my sweet, I know babyna I missed you more seriously there was just nothing I could do he kissed my forehead and I cuddle up to him gisting about his trips and having fun teasing him about what happened before .

ZAKIYA'S P.O.V

These few days I have been noticing habibi his so worried whenever I asked him he will say it's office work and I try as much as I can to let it be but still am also worried about him since after that accident he hasn't been himself I needed to cheer him up with that I made his favourite chocolate cake and smoothie early morning for breakfast after I finish my kitchen chores I went back to dress up and he was already awake not like always I used to wake him up with a peak and he got so use to it that sometimes he will pretend to be sleeping with that I sat him down and asked him to be honest about what's really happening because am getting worried and he said everything was fine again haba habibina please u know we don't hide anything from each other so just be honest with me what's going on and after a moment of silence he told me that he donated his blood to the man who he helped and took him to the hospital and their blood group matched baba is also surprised about it he insisted that we should do a DNA test because of that I have been worried I don't want to believe what am thinking I don't want any twist in my life at this stage baby am really stressed out with that I just hugged him my love don't worry everything will be fine and even if the opposite of it happened just know it's for the best and nothing else remember whatever happens in life always happens for the best so please my love stop stressing yourself and its not a must that you've to do the DNA if you're not comfortable with it then just explain to baba how you feel and make him understand but if u feel like it's necessary just do it and get over with everything it's better than running away from the truth I hate seeing you worried so please my love stop overthinking about it and Allah knows best if it's meant  to happen it will surely be if not nothing of any sort will occur in your life I know your not ready to face the reality but at least don't run away from it may Allah choose what's best for you and give you the strength to fight this battle and guide you through. With that he kissed my forehead I love my beautiful intelligent wife thank you for always been my support I really appreciate it thank you ❤ most welcome hubby so let's go eat our breakfast so u don't be late for work.
