Enemy Of The Past

Chapter Sixteen

New Look

"He played us" Said Ayman

"Let's go to the barrack" I said and walked out to the door walking fast, I need to make a disappearance quickly before Kayrov gets me.

"Stay safe" I said to Mark and entered the car, the two guys joined me and entered with Ayman driving.

"What about Italy?"

"Kayrov's following us we need to make a disappearance, Ayman get us someone who will act in disguise for us three we need to get to Italy before tomorrow also don't make any calls and also drive to Uncle Ali's house instead"

The moment we entered the mansion Ayman was told Mark got shot after we left his residence. Kayrov is really making silent moves. Thank god I made plans for the Russian guy who is in Italy already he seemed to be the only one I can trust right now.

I entered the room that used to be mine when I stayed here. Everything is the same except it was a different bed-sheet from the one I left. I sat down on the bed thinking about all the news I heard this two days, and I realised thinking about it now will lead to me breaking down and that it is the least I need right now.

"Come in" I said as I heard a knock on the door. It opened revealing Noor in her long white dress and a black Hijab over her head, a smiled spread over her wrinkled face giving her brown eyes a brighter look.

"If it isn't my favourite sister" She said coming and seating down next to me taking my hands in hers.

"Salaam Noor"

"Wa'alaikumsalaam love, you look like you haven't slept in days" She put her hand in my hair. She has always been like a mother to me than a cousin.

"Maybe because I didn't"

"You really need to start taking care of yourself, Baba-Abad will be at the proudest moment of his life now, he is here but he won't be happy with you being like that and Mama-Abrar is probably angry with you for not taking care for yourself"

"And for refusing to get married" I groaned rolling my eyes as I kept my head on her lap laying down.

"What? I am saying the truth! You rejected everyone that said he loves you with my brother included"

"You know that is not it!" I said sighing

"I know you two just couldn't make it work!"

"Uhum"

"What about Jadd?" my eyes opened immediately

"You and I both know the guy is into you if he hasn't said it already"

"There is nothing like that Noor we are just good working mates"

"He is the first guy in the military to not envy you or try and end you but stands up to you despite you being higher than him"

"He is just an honest one"

"Yeah he is but come on Fay, have you seen the way he looks at you? He gets jealous when Ayman is so close to you"

"And how did you even see that?"

"Well at the party I witnessed it and the fact that he confronted Ayman, well Ayman started it but he mentioned to fight for your love" I got up from her lap and looked at her as she smiled at me. I lay back down again, my heart beating quicker than usual my mind having multiple thoughts.

"When did all that happen?"

"When you are busy chasing after Kayrov... You know I will not stop you because even if I were in your place I will hunt him down but I will give myself a chance to be happy to and not be a programmed robot"

"I am trying Noor but the past keeps coming back to me"

"Or you kept running back? I just want you to remember something there are people who actually love you and would fight for you too if you give them a chance, please let you have it for once" I nodded and after sometime of resting i got up remembering we have to get ready. Talking with Noor is always comforting but today it feels heavy maybe because I could actually be his daughter.

"I have to get ready now, will you help me?"

"Of course" She jumped happily entering the closet.

After dressing in a long black Abaya with Niqab and putting on blue eye lens giving me a hazel coloured eyes. I put on black boots and walked downstairs. Ayman managed to get a girl with the same height and body as mine. We only dyed her hair black like mine from her previous brown one.

He also got a look alike of Jadd too but he is still better looking than the guy, he has been complaining about it which lead to argument between the two.

"Alright enough, Ayman get to work and Jadd let's go" I said stopping their little fight. They glared at each other before laughing off and shaking hands.

"I will miss you, please take care and don't shut me out again" I nodded giving him a small smile. He moved closer and hugged me tightly after that i walked to the door.

"I will miss you call me whenever you need someone to talk to, I will always be here" And she repeat it again. It is always what she tells me whenever I am leaving.

After the little goodbyes we walked towards the backdoor where men in uniforms dragged Jadd and pushed me with a stick to show as if we were been sent away.

"Shukran, Tahya Al-emarates" I said as we entered the jet. They saluted me and left, soon it was only we Jadd and two air hostess with two pilots making us six on the jet.

I removed the Niqab and loosened the Hijab on my head removing the Abaya I kept it on one of the empty seats. I strengthened my knee length blue shirt that I matched with black chinos and sat down. I looked over the research we have been doing and the records Red-bull had sent.

"So are we going to talk about why you are not taking action on your cousin or ignore it?" Asked Jadd seating across me, I looked up at him keeping the laptop on my side.

"There are reasons and we need to focus on the important stuff"

"This is important he is probably the one giving out all our targets"

"We are not sure"

"But what is with the bomb in every place we were at right after we told him, where we were?"

"I get that he maybe be involved but he waited for us to leave first which means he doesn't intend to harm us"

"More like you" He mumbled under his breath but I heard it

"What is your deal? You have been nothing but causing problems between us, stop being a jealous husband please"

"I am being a jealous husband? I am just protecting you nothing more"

"I have been okay all my life alone why would I suddenly need you to do that for me?" I asked slowly. Tiredness is starting to show off me because I can feel my eyes become heavy and because of the way Jadd's eyes softened looking at me.

"That is the thing, you have been alone all your life and now it is time to let someone in, and even though I might lose I am willing to give my everything for you"

"But you can't do that"

"I know but I want to and I am begging you not to break my heart please" I looked away from him and to the window.

"You should rest now, we have hours ahead"

"No I am good"

"Please trust me on this one I would rather not return you lifeless to your family... don't worry I know you don't entirely trust me" A look of hurt flashed on his face but I just can't help my emotions. Trusting people brought me nothing but disappointment.
