"Bintu bintu" I called "Yes ya Amrita" she answered "Would you escort me to the royal chamber?" I asked "Why not ya Amrita" she replied and I smiled
We walked towards the chamber with me staring at the beautiful scenario , we reached towards the entrance and Bintu spoke "Sarkin kofa ayi ma gimbiya matar yarima iso a wajen mai martaba ( Royal guard , the wife of the prince wished to see his royal highness" she said
The guard nod his head as he walked into the room and we followed behind "Assalamu alaikum (peace be upon you)"I greeted as I walked into the room and suddenly I felt a pain in my head "Subhannallah" I muttered as I stare at the living room
"Wa alaikum mussalam my daughter" he replied with a smile , Bintu left the room immediately he answered I walked towards him and sat down on the royal carpet beside him "Good afternoon your highness" I greeted "Afternoon my dear how are you doing hope Ammar is treating you well" he asked with a smile
"He is" I said lowering my head "It's good" he said smiling , just then someone bang the door opened , I raised my head in shock as I saw queen Bilkisu , I lowered my gaze immediately because of the dangerous aura she carried around her.
"Good afternoon your highness" I greeted but she didn't muttered a single word "She is speaking to you bilkisu" he said to her before she forced a smile on her face "Oh afternoon I didn't notice you are here" she said and I knew she was lying
"It's okay" I said with a small smile "Didn't your husband convey his royal highness message to you" she said glaring at me "What message?" I stared at her with a confused look "If he couldn't tell you. I will" she said "Haba bil" he stated but she glared at him while he immediately kept shut What is happening? I looked worried at how she was behaving towards my father in law , "something is off " I thought
"Your loving husband is getting married in two weeks time" she smirked and my heart skipped a beat "Marriage what" my eyes balls shoot opened "Why are you scared Umm he is getting married and I thought you have the right to know as his WIFE" she muttered the last word with disgust , I didn't know when tears filled up my eyes
I immediately stood up to leave cause I don't want to break down in front of my in-laws "Wait let me tell you the bride na" she held my shoulder , just then farha appeared and my heart immediately skipped a beat "Innalillahi wainna ilaihi rajiun" I muttered "Hey again amrita we once again met" she said smirking
I removed queen bilkisu grip from my shoulder and walked out of the room or should I say ran out , I ignore the weird looks from the guards and workers and the calls of Bintu as I stormed into my room and locked it down. I slipped on the floor and tears started gushing out from my eyes "Why yah Ammar why" I cried "Why would you do this to me" I cried
