I am soo tired of hiding things from khamila we got close lately but i cant bring myself to tell her that i am the captain Ameer she always complains about, that my name is fahad el-ameer .
** ring ** ring**ring
My annoying ring tone went on disturbing every bit of peace i was enjoying,ut seeing tge name on my screen made me smile with happiness.
" hey beautiful ." I teased khamila
" hey big head,hows abuja and when are you going back to Work at yola?" Her sweet voice beemed
" first of all, works fine, abuja is fine and i am not going back to yola because i got hired here in transcop"
" oh wow upgrade ." She replied in a very low tone" heyy mimi you okay?" I asked worried
"Tbh i am not Wallahi ."
" subahanallah what happened?"
" well fahad i think its high time i come clean and tell you this, I really like you. I just find myself smiling at your messages, craving for your voice, i am soo in-love with you fahad, i dont know you and I don't know your family but I love you ."" if i am to be very honest with you, ever since we met in yola I started loving you and thank god that was when i got tge job with the airline..." i. Paused

" the airline you work for, its my name you don't know, i Am captain fahad ameer, the flirt you complain about."
" why did you keep it from me? Why fahad and now gere i am feeling i dont even know you when you never really told me anything."
" i am sorry mee am , please it wasn't intentional ."
" Wallahi I also love you mee mee am" i added
" you know what fahad , I never thought you would lie to me and you proved me wrong, probably trusted tge wrong guy, what else could you be hiding huh? Tell me... oh the cat got your toungue... i wish i never met you good bye" she hanged upI called her back more than twice and she wasn't picking .

"What happened ?"
" Alhaji called me this morning w told me that zai mun aure da er best friend nashi" zayn said rubbing his neck
" he will what? Do you even know the gurl? Have you seen her or something?"
" no no no I didn't I agreed to it because i wanted to marry Asma but on the other hand asma said she is not ready for marriage now and because of that i agreed with dad and i told him to do what he thinks is best for me" he sigh" ya Allah and here i am complaining about that, how i wish i can do something or try to convince Asma?" I said with a questioning look

" may Allah make it easy on us"
" ameen ya rabbi, i am going out you coming" he asked

With that i and ya zayn went out to capadocia.Khamila pov
He was lying all along , i hate liars if fahad can lie this long to me what will happen if i marry him by chance , there is no way, I don't even want to face him. I heard footsteps coming towards my room so I adjusted to a sitting position
" Aslm babygirl ." My mum came in
" wslm Ammi" i said trying to look okay
" something bothering. You my angel?" She asked
" no nothing Ammi , just missing work and Asma, Farrah and Nabila"
" wow , the break will soon be over , don't worry"We were silent for a minute , I noticed since my mum came to my room its like there is something she wants to say but cant say it or maybe scared
" Ammi you can tell me" i broke the silence
" ahh u always notice right ." She pouted
" I can't help it, so whats up?"
" i and your dad want to talk to you about something, get your scarf and come downstairs ." She said tapping my lapShe exited the room and I followed her almost immediately
" salamu alaikum" i went in
" we alaikis salam mama na" my dad answered
" baba ina wuni, ya aiki"
" lafiya kalau yar baba, ya zaman gida" he said teasing me
" babu dadi sam baba" i said shaking my head
" so mama na ,i and your mum thought of something that will change your life. Completely, i know you have never said no to me ever since you grew up, mama na i want one last request from you" he pausedMy heart was beating faster because i just can't wait to hear its not what i am thinking of
Probably change of work
A voice in my head said" I want you to marry my best friend son,Alhj Ameer mazawaje"
My heart started beating faster, suffocation and heat hit my face, my palms were sweating i was soo nervous
" Baba.." i said raising my head in tears
" Dallah chan ki bar shirme". ( stop this nonsense) my mum shouted at me
" Ah ah Habiba dont shout at her, mu da muke so mu lallaba ta"(stop shouting at her , we have to pet her) abba said
" which petting Alhj she is turning 23 aie koh jamila ma takai aure balle ita, toh bari kiji koh kinki koh kinso auren nan dole ." (Even nafisa is now eligible to get married, talk-less of her, listen whether you like it or not you must marry him, you wont spoil the friendship between your dad and alhj ameer)" my mum said angrilyVoices beeming up and down in my head, thinking of fahad, then an idea poped my head wait fahad name is fahad el-ameer I know he is just fancied it , maybe its fahad i will just take the risk of getting married, besides i never say no to my dad , talk less of ruining there friendship with alhj Ameer
" Baba , I accept your wish, I know you will never choose something that is bad for me, Allah kyauta ." I said in between sobs just hoping i am not wrong
" yawwa mama na Allah miki albarka, let me call alhj and tell him this good news"He stood up and went out
My mum knew i was not happy but she also know that i wont say no even if i want toSo guys this is the end of this chapter, i will be waiting for your comments
