"You think I'm lying? Hameed, you think I'll lie to you? I can't stoop that low,It's something you need to know about your wife. At least, even though you're showing all this attitude... I can't stay there and watch someone else ruining your reputation and tarnishing your image," Fareeda continued.
You're blindly in love with your so called wife. That you can't see her fault in everything she does. She's there mingling with some men in school, and you..."

Hameed's anger flared up. "One more word over here, and I'll surely change the color of your face," he mumbled through gritted teeth, his face and frame flashing with anger.what my wife did is none of your business. Stay away from my marriage life," he warned, his anger becoming massive.

Fareeda stood her ground. "What if I show you the proof? I have evidence, so don't just think I'll come and stay in front of you, cooking up some stories."
She fished out her phone from her bag, trying to show him a picture of Husna.

He angrily shoved her aside. "F**k you and the evidence, Fareeda."

He walked towards his room, his passion and anger evident in every step.

He closed his eyes, thinking back to what really happened yesterday. He blamed himself for believing Fareeda at the first place. What makes him think that Husna will really cheat on him?" he thought, a ball of desperation unfurling on his chest.
He stood up and walked out from the apartment.

The smell of fresh coffee welcomed her first. The whimpers subsided. Like every Tuesday morning, the waitress placed the usual buttermilk pancakes topped with strawberry jam sauce and freshly cut strawberries in front of her.She took a bite of the pancake, looking at the time on her phone. At the same time, her mind slowly drifted back to what was happening in their house lately. She pressed her lips together.

"Everything doesn't seem good now," she thought. They had a serious argument yesterday with Captain. She just couldn't believe he was doubting her love for him. "He thinks that she can mingle with some other men in her school, knowing exactly that she's married.fareeda was even insulting her about her family background in his presence, but he couldn't do anything about it. "She doesn't even know what Fareeda has actually turned their house into."

"Hello, beautiful! What's up?" a manly voice snapped in front of her.

She raised her eyes, looking at him before she quickly averted her gaze.

"What have I done now?"Miss Asma? Oh! I'm getting the silent treatment again," he whispered , biting his lips as he bent a little, scrutinizing her face.He knows exactly that she is still angry about what he did to her. He blamed himself for believing what Fareeda told him.

"What!" she barked, picking up her phone and shoving it into her bag.

He smiled. "Thank God I got a reaction out of her."
When will the anger towards me end?"

"Can you just leave me alone?" she gritted.

He bulged his eyes, looking at her. "What did I do? Are you mad at me?"
