Zahra's POV
"Hakim be fast mutafi."(let's go). I said to hakim who was wasting time doing whatever. "I'm coming." He yelled from upstairs.

He came down and we headed out. We decided today we would go greet mama and baba. "Why are you scared?" He asked. "I don't know, this is the first time we visited since our marriage fah...what if mama is angry?" I said.

"Just calm down Zahra, nothing will happen Inshallah." He said and I nodded even though I was still scared.

I rested my head a bit and before I knew it we were there already. "Let's go." He said and I stepped out of the car.

We went inside the house after one of the maids opened the door. "Ina wuni." She greeted and we responded. "Bari in fada ma Hajiya."she said. (Let me tell Hajiya).

When she left, I started thinking of how I came here as hakims bodyguard and now I'm seated here as his wife. I remembered when alhaji said I don't have to be a bodyguard anymore since I would be his wife and he believes I'll take care of his son.

That was when he gave me the payment for the whole time I've been hakims bodyguard. I got out of my trance and saw mama coming down.

Me and hakim went down on our knees to greet her. The amount of respect I had for his mom wasn't small at all.

"How have you guys been?" She asked. ""Good." We both chorused and she laughed. Her extremely white teeth shone.

"Hakim you've become so chubby, I can see Zahra is taking care of you." Mrs ayaat said. I blushed so hard I thought maybe by now my cheeks where already red.



3 hours later
"Mom I'm tired fah." Hakim muttered. "But you know you still have to drive." She muttered. "Nope, my wifey would drive." He said and inallilahi, hakim!!

"Uhm I-
I tried to talk but he stopped me. "No Zahra you are driving." He said smirking. "But my son, you should drive so you both would be safer, not to be rude zahra; I just mean, I don't know if you can drive and-

"It's okay mom, I don't wanna drive anyway." I muttered smiling and she nodded and smiled back.

"Okay we are going." Hakim said not listening to my rants about me not driving. "You're driving babe." He whispered into my ear and I internally rolled my eyes.

We got out of the house and entered the car. Hakim went to the passengers seat.

"Hakim Dan allah I don't want to drive." (Please). "Zahra you're driving."

I formed a pout and he rolled his eyes and came out of the passengers seat and sat down on the drivers seat. I heaved a sigh of relief and I smiled at him.

"Get in!!" He half yelled. "I'm coming." I said. He started driving and he was driving at a high speed and I got kind of scared since it was already getting late.

"Hakim stop driving so fast mana." I said getting scared. I was scared because what if we get into an accident.

"Wifey calm down." He said turning to face me. Like a flash, everything happened. I was scared, terrified and what made it worse was that hakim had blood gushing out of his head.

Auzubullahi.

We got into an accident. Our car hit another as hakim wasn't looking. I was so scared, it was me alone and hakim got injured and fainted. It happened all in a flash.

I didn't know what to do. By now people surrounded our car and some surrounded the other car which only made things worse and made me more nervous. I came out of the car trying hard to walk straight as I also hit my head slightly.

I went over to the drivers seat and with great effort and with the help of someone from the crowd I got hakim to the passengers seat. I got into the driven seat knowing I haven't drives much in my life but I knew how to.

I quickly got to a nearby hospital and hakim was rushed into the ICU. I panicked going here and there. I picked up my phone and called mama.

"M-mama, he...he's in the hospital." I said crying profusely. "Who?" She asked. "Hakim." I muttered silently.
"Inallilahi Wa Inna Ilaihi Rajuun." Was all she muttered before ending the call.

That was my cue, I knew she was on her way. I called aliyah and narrated everything to her, she said she's on her way with hafsah.

The doctor came out after a long time. "D-doctor is he alright?" I asked. "Ma'am his condition is really critical." The doctor said.

My heart started beating upon hearing the doctors word. Would my hakim be okay? Would he die? Would he leave me and will I become a widow?

Would he leave me like mama did? Inallilahi. "Please doctor save my husband for me." I was crying so much. "We'll try ma'am." He said and left.
I leaned on the wall crying to myself. "He'll be okay ya Zahra." I heard Aliyah's voice. I quickly hugged her. Hakim can't leave me.

"A-aliyah they said h-he's condition is critical." I said still crying. "He'll be okay bi'iznillah."(if Alllah wills). She said I hugged her more clinging onto her.

Soon after that mama and baba came in. "Where's my son? Where is he?" Mrs ayaat yelled. "Hajiya calm down please." Alhaji said to her. "How can you tell me to calm down when my son is on a hospital bed?" She yelled again.

"Zahra what did you do to him? What?!" She yelled. My heart broke into pieces. "Mama I-
"I know you're the cause of this, you just had to show him your driving skills right?." Mrs ayaat muttered.

I couldn't take it anymore, I immediately ran away from there. How can she blame me for this when I didn't even drive? How is this fair?

I just can't believe out of all people she was the one to blame me for this...
