Chapter Twenty-Two

Elena's P.O.V

Next Day. 

I looked out through the window and stood behind the balcony door as I combed my hair, smelling in the fresh smell of kabob. My stomach rumbled a bit and I smiled. Kabob, my happiness. I tied my hair into a bun so it would be easy for me to wear my scarf. 

"Why are you awake so early?" Faron spoke, from the floor. 

A shiver came down and I shrugged it off, I turned around and looked at him. "Because I am, why do you want to know?"

He picked himself up from the floor and looked at me, with his hair ever so messy. "Well, don't I need to know? What if something happens to you?"

I picked up my scarf and my bag, held tightly in my hand. "Well, you'll definitely be the last person anyone would call." 

"Wele? Sa chal osho os?"Faron replied in an annoyed tone as he picked up his pillow from the floor."What have I done?"

Why? What has happened?

I rolled my eyes at him, in disgust. "You should know with all those whores you are texting on your phone, "I replied with a sweet smile on my face, he looked at me in shock. I opened my bag to check if I had everything and I did.

Then I placed the scarf around my head loosely and looked at myself in the mirror. "MashAllah, I actually look really pretty, you never know, I might just go and get married again, "I remarked as I fixed up my scarf. 

Faron looked at me through the mirror, with a shocked expression on his face. "W-Whattt?"

The strap of my bag held itself on my shoulder, I walked towards the door and Faron placed his pillow on the bed. I turned my head over my shoulder as I placed my hand on the door handle. "Don't sleep on my bed, my parents paid for that. That isn't yours to touch, sleep or text your whores from."

Before Faron could say anything, I opened the door and walked out, letting it slam behind me. I walked downstairs, into the dining room to see Rayanna sitting there, drinking her tea.

I placed my bag on the table and looked at her with a smile."Ready?"

She nodded. "Ready as I ever will be, where is Aiden?"

I pulled out my phone from my bag. "I'll just text him now, "I replied as I turned my phone on and texted Aiden, asking him where is he.

"Oh, she woke up early, "Naz spoke so loudly, walking into the room. He stood himself next to me.

I rolled my eyes and looked up from my phone, I looked at him. "I'm not in the mood for your shenanigans, I've had enough of your brother and I am close to pushing you down the stairs."

"Oh, she woke up angry too," Naz added with a smirk on his face.

I decided to ignore his silly comments and sat next to Rayanna. I looked at her. "Before we go, I do need to tell you something."

"What is it?"

"It's amazing that your parents are alive, siblings too."I began to say as I placed my hand on top of her free hand.

"Wait, what? Your parents are alive?"Naz interrupted me as he looked at us with wide eyes. 

"But when we get there, we don't know how the situation is going to be. You need to prepare yourself that you might not get the answers you want."I said as I ignored Naz's commentary. "And it is okay, don't pressure yourself or lie to yourself. Be straight and put yourself first because this is your story. But as your friend, I need to tell you there is a chance."
