Through her eyes

chapter 34

*Naila*

They didn't respond to me and I felt like Melissa told hayal everything but why would she? She wouldn't confess that she killed a human.

"Naila what?" I asked.
Hayal quickly get up and moved close to me.
"Nothing I thought you left?" She said.

"No I didn't yet. Did something happened?" I asked.

"Nothing, Melissa is not feeling well" she replied.

I move closer and held Melissa.
"I will drive you home my love" I said with a fake smile.

"You shouldn't bother" hayal said and it assures me that melissa said something to her. Maybe not the truth but she did.

"Why, she can't drive in this situation?" I replied.

"Ohh yeah, take care of her" she said

"I always take care of her, isn't it melissa?" I said looking at her.

"Yeah" she nodded.

We entered the car and drive straight to Melissa's home. We get up and I handle the keys to her.

"You wouldn't thank me?" I asked her. She started walking without saying anything and I pull her back till she almost tripped.

"Naila..." She said in panic.

"Don't worry nothing will happen" I said as I fold my arms.

"You're sick Naila" she said.

"I know that, tell me something I don't know, like what you discussed with hayal"

"Are you scared to get exposed?" She asked.

"I'm not scared of anything" I replied.

"Then what I discussed with hayal shouldn't bother you" she replied and started walking away.

"Melissa did you told something to Hayal?" I asked again.

"No I didn't, now go home and sleep peacefully" she added and walk away.

I couldn't think of anything straight. My mind went crazy and I needed Ahmad. I can't barre Hus absence anymore. I hear never been more desperate.

I wake up feeling fatigued. I don't even understand what's going on anymore. I can't do anything to separate Hayal and Ahmad. He is all over her.

The only thing my mind cold thought of was hurting myself and I did. I hit my head till it bleeds.

I called the emergency and said I was hurt and loosing blood. They took me quickly to the hospital and took care of me.

"You'll have to stay here for at least 2 days" the doctor added.

They asked how it happened and I told them it was an incident.

"Do you have any relative?" The nurse asked.

"Not really" I replied.

"Okay" she responded

"Can you do me favor please?" I pleaded with her.

"Sure what is it?".

I told her that me and boyfriend argued three days ago and we weren't talking. Now that the accident happen I got no one but him. I told her she should just tell him that Naila is a serious situation in the hospital and he should come right away. I gave her Ahmad's number and she did what I told her.

**

Ahmad arrived in a rush and I felt so happy.

"Ahmad" I said and tears started flowing.

He look a little bit disappointed and surprised at the same time. He sat next to me

"They said you were in a serious situation" he said.
"Am I not?" I replied.

His arrival made everything feel less heavy. I can't wait for him to be mine.

"Why did they called me?" He asked.

"I told them" I replied.
"Why me?"
"Because I have no one else" I replied and he look completely lost and confuse.

He wish me a quick recovery and get up to leave.

"Wait" I said.
"Hayal is waiting for me" he said and I felt so angry. I sit up and right and started pulling the drip from my hands.

"Naila don't do it!" He stopped me.

"What do you think you're doing?"he asked.

"Please don't go to her" I said with tear flowing out of my eyes.

"Who? Hayal? She is my wife" he said and I felt more angry.

"Always her! Always!" I screamed.

He look so scared and had to compose myself because I didn't want to scare him.

"Can you please listen to me?" I pleaded.

"I'm listening" he replied

I started telling about my miserable life maybe he will sympathize. I could see from his eyes that he felt sorry for me.

"Do you feel sorry for me like you felt for Leyla?" I asked.

"What does this has to do with Leyla?" He asked in confusion.

"Because no one love her. You never loved, you treated her like trash, you made fun of her for being adopted, a child found in the bin" I said with so much anger and tears rolling out of eyes. I tried to compose myself but it's not working at all.

"Naila I think the incident affected you so much. I will call the doctor" he want to get up and I held his arms so tightly. The way a child hold his mother's arm, with no intention of letting go.

He sat back and look the the hand I used to hold his arm. I quickly pull away and apologize.

"You're scaring me" he said.

"Why didn't you ever loved Leyla?" I asked.

"I was in love with hayal" he replied.

"You were just selfish and arrogant. You betrayed her"

He apologize and try to make me understand that's not how things work.  He tried to get up again and I stopped him.

With teats rolling out of eyes, which so much emotions in my face. I have never been that vulnerable to anyone.

"Why can't you see Ahmad?" I said with painful tears.

"See what Naila?" He asked.

"I'm so madly in love with you Ahmad, I love you"

He puzzled and we all turn out attention to the person standing near the door. It was hayal.
