STRONGER (ON HOLD)

Chapter 25

"Musa.man.where are you?" i let the door open.

"Come,i'm at the kitchen" he called.

I shut the door and took my shoes off,it's a Musa rule.

He was setting on the chair focusing on something he was holding in his hand "Hey buddy" i said tapping his shoulder.

"Oh hey" he looked up "check this out" he gave me our two fake Huye "we look so real" i said.

"Yeah hopefully they will never find out" he look took them.

"I have a lot of faith that it's going to work" i almost whispered.

He nodded.

"But it's going to take a lot of time" he immediately said.

"Aha.something i know"

I opened the fridge and took out a lemon juice,my favorite.

"You want some" i offered.

"Nah.thanks"

I finished my work over in Musa's house then made my way back to the house.

I'm looking for work lately,i need to gain some money.

"Hey mom" i almost shouted.

"is that my shirt?" i frown.

She was wiping the floor with my white shirt.

"Yeah,i felt like you don't need it anymore"

"Perhaps i did" i raised my eyebrows and then heard a giggling.

Mariya came out from the kitchen.

"I told her" she chuckled.

I pulled my hands up making a confused face,half smiling half mad because it was my favorite one.

"It's okay" i smiled from the corner of my mouth.

"Wipe it good ha" i joked.

"You know me" mom made a face of 'cool'.

I chuckled and took my blue beanie that Mariya gave me off.then went to my room.

I feel like in Fridays i should just stay at home with my pajamas on doing nothing,reading Quran perhaps.

"And here is the cheese" mom said,we were having dinner,gathered around our small circled table.

I cleared my through "thanks".

Mariya has been living months with us,but what is so special about her is that she's always shy when i'm around,and when we are gathered to eat,she keeps her head down,it's kinda funny cause she eats two bites then sometimes i catch her at night eating in kitchen.

We finished dinner and sat around the TV watching the news as always.Mom went to make some tea,Mariya and i were in the livingroom.

"Adam" Mariya said in a soft tone.

"Remember that stupid woman.Mariya? her name was.you proposed to her but she said she need sometime.i think she had enough" she immediately said.i sat there confused.

"I do Adam" she gave me the most beautiful smile i ever seen.

I couldn't help but smile back and my smile reached to my ears.

Her face turned from red to yellow and from yellow to blue from shyness.she got up quickly running to her room.

I watched as she shut the door.I chuckled happy and shock.

"Wait,what did i miss?" mom came from the kitchen holding the tea.

"almost everything" i mumbled.
