Manal's POV
It's been three days since the kidnapping of Hanan. And ever since, I've been trying to find my baby girl. And Abubakar wasn't helping, he didn't talk to me. I thought he would budge and talk to me but he didn't talk to me even one bit.

No matter how hard I tried to give him food , he didn't take it, he either bought food outside or eats at Farouk's house. I really missed my family and felt lonely. Because Abubakar acted like I wasn't even alive.

But at the same time, I was happy because tomorrow I will get my Hanan back. I called mr.sheriff so many times until we finally came up with a plan of how to get Hanan back. We had to come up with a plan because I knew how cunning Abubakar's uncle is.

I might even give him the money and he will still kill my Hanan. And if that happens, Abubakar will never in his life forgive me. Abubakar tried so many times to get Hanan but he failed.

I haven't told him about my plan because he won't even listen will he?

"Abubakar." I muttered silently knocking on his door. "Abubakar." I muttered again, but no answer. I decided to go into the room without his permission. "How dare you!" He yelled and raised his hands to slap me. I immediately held his hands.

"What. What happened. I entered you room without permission? Well yes I did and that doesn't mean you should slap me. Abubakar I know I wronged you by taking Hanan away, but I'm human." I muttered.

"You-
I cut him off. "No Abubakar, you are angry with me and I understand that. But I promise you I will get yours and my Hanan back, I will bring her back home safe and sound." I said.

"And how sure are you?" He asked. "A hundred percent sure." I muttered with confidence spreading all over my face. He didn't mutter anything but just went back to where he was seating before.

That was my sign to leave. I exited the room and went back to my room. I took a shower and prayed maghrib. After I did my evening azkar, I immediately went to bed after praying that Hanan comes home safely.

The next morning~
I got ready very early and took my bath. I wore something free and went out early to meet Abubakar's uncle at the venue he asked. Although I didn't go alone, I went with mr.sheriff and a few police officers. But they hid and I came to him with an empty bag which I claimed was full of money.

"Mr.Ali Ibrahim!" I yelled. He immediately turned around. "Wow wow wow, and here goes my nephew's wife isn't it?" He asked. "Get to the point please, I'm here with your money, give me back hanan." I muttered. "Would you calm down woman, give me the money." He said.

"Wow Mr.Ali, how smart. Give me Hanan before I give you the money." I said. "How am I sure you are not tricking me. I chuckled a little and muttered "I'm not as sly as you, and I will give you what you have asked for." I muttered. "Fine hand me the money." He muttered.

"Hanan." I simply muttered. "Bring the girl." He said to one of his goons. How can someone be this wicked. I thought. He handed me Hanan and I resisted the urge to cry, I remembered my plan and I didn't let the tears betray me.

"Here's you money." I said handing him the empty bag which I stuffed with some things so it would be heavy. He collected it and wanted to open it. "Wait." I muttered. "Now you've gotten the money, or did you? And now you'll get what's coming for you." I said smirking. "What do you mean?" He asked.

"Come out guys." And everyone came out of their hiding spot. It would be an understatement to say that he was shocked, he was dismayed. "You are under arrest Mr.Ali Ibrahim kaithar." The senior police officer muttered.

"How dare you?" He muttered. "Don't yell at me you fool, you silly and sly devil." I muttered. The police took him and his goons away. I was so happy. "Hanan my baby how are you?" I asked kissing her cheeks. "Aunty Manal they are s- so wicked." She muttered. Oh my poor baby.

"Now let's get you home right, don't cry okay." I said to her and she nodded slightly sobbing.

We got home and surprisingly Abubakar was home. Immediately Abubakar saw Hanan he jumped up with joy and came to hug her. "Hanan my dear." He muttered. "Ya Abubakar." She muttered smiling.

He looked at me and I smiled at him. He hugged me tightly and thanked me. "Your welcome." I muttered. "Manal I- I can't thank you enough, I'm such a fool-

"Shhhh." I cut him off.

"Hanan, you must be hungry right. So let's go have some food." I said raising her up. "Oh yes I'm verrrry hungry." She said emphasizing on the 'very'. I chuckled a bit and so did Abubakar. I was happy to see him happy.

We ate and ate and also gisted. A lot! After sometime, hanan fell asleep and I picked her upstairs and dropped her in my bed. She's so adorable. And as for Abubakar, he couldn't stop thanking me, which I got annoyed of, cause he thanked me like over a million times. Like what the heck.

*sigh*



Okay guys this fasting isn't doing me good at all. Like I'm so lazy!
