CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Azaan

That can’t be true, it just can’t be. Taheera can’t be happy without me” I half-punch the starry

What’s wrong babe? Is anything the matter?” farida curiously asked and I faked a smile saying it’s nothing even though the thought of Taheera and that cunning ape kept crossing my mind

So when are we meeting the interior decorator?”

 Will you please rest for a bit…there’s still one more week to go and for your information there won’t be any new decorations either, my house is ok and I don’t need anything”     I wonder what’s wrong with farida, bragging and show off has always been her close friends and now some stupid interior decorations

 “and who told you marrying such fancy girls is an easy task to begin with?” my subconscious mind said.  I hissed at what I mentally said and that’s what pissed farida I thought and made her shouted at me for the first time and it felt like hell.

I spotted a place down the street and parked my car. “And who in this earth gave you the right to yelled at me Farida? I am your damn husband to be got it?” I said in a gritting teeth. She opened her mouth to utter a word but couldn’t find the courage to and suddenly tears started rolling down her face.

Okay Azaan first of all I think you are insane and secondly you should apologize since you are doomed” I psychologically whispered  “I am sorry babe I don’t know what’s gotten into me, I …I am tired I guess that’s why, nonetheless I am sorry” I said bringing our palms together but she slowly yet enragedly pulled out her hand from mine “I know you still have feelings for her, I know since from the time you noticed that she and nurain like each other” the moment she called his name I lost control  “she’s not in love with that stupid ape!…she’s not! She would never be in love with anyone ever again!”  “Azaan why? Why are you like this to me” she brought her head up towards me sobbing like she just lost any of her parents and all of a sudden she break down, she cried her eyes out and I know she was broken and hurt but what do I do?

I tardily engulfed my hand behind her and grip her so tightly even though I need it too “I am sorr…” before I end my words she jerked and tossed angrily

Don’t touch me” she yelled at top of her lungs “just don’t touch me please” she opened the car door and left. I followed her trying to stop her but she didn’t missed a single chance to enraged me, although I tried to endure the humiliation but I couldn’t, I just can’t. She halted a cab and left and I went back to my car.

 

Faridah

How could he do this to me, why would he mentioned her albeit knowing I will feel hurt. Yes I know I hurt my sister so much, I know the pain I caused her was more griever than mine but I apologized.

“You never did you fool” I mentally blurted. I sniffed and cleaned out my tears. I brought out my wallet and gave the taxi driver his money then enter home.

As soon as I closed my room I busted out crying again while Azaan’s voice echoed in my mind and I immediately fall at the edge of the couch beside my bed, I became weaker as my tears grow stronger, consuming me. I became nothing more than the vessel for the tears that won’t stop shedding.
