let's just love ( Season 2)

Episode 1

"How was your exam?" Farouq asked as Sameerah and Hafsah came out of DLC.

"Alhamdulillah. It was surprisingly easy." Hafsah said, collecting her bag from the security man outside.

It was a month since Zayden broke up with her and she was perfectly fine now. She still had the flowers he sent and the notes he wrote that said that they were meant to be forever.

"I got everything set for the picnic." Farouq said as he led them to his car. "That's cool." Sameerah said, sitting at the passenger's seat. Hafsah took a seat in the back and Farouq drove off to the dam. Zayden had overheard them talking about it some time ago so he decided to apologize there.

He had everything set up, waiting for Hafsah to arrive. Hafsah wasn't expecting to see Zayden there at all. She thought she would just go there and have fun with her friends. When they got down, Hafsah helped them to set up the blanket so that they could start eating. Just then, Zayden appeared out of nowhere.

"Hafsah." he breathed out. She had so many emotions running through her. Angèr, pa!n, hurł, but still, somewhere deep down in her heart, she had a little ounce of love left for him.

She got flashbacks of everything he did to her. How he ch£ated on her. How he wanted to take away her most prized jewel, her v!rginity. How he insulłed her. And now, out of the blue, he thought he could just reappear into her life and everything will go back to normal. Everything would start smelling like roses? What did he think of her? Some kind of dog that he'll just push away and drag back anytime he wished?

Hafsah wanted to y£ll at him. She wanted to slaþ him. She wanted to k!ll him for everything he did but she just couldn't bring herself to do it.

"Hafsah, I know I've hurł you intentionally and I don't deserve your forgiveness but please, give me one last chance. One last chance to prove how much I really love you, to make up for all the things I did." he said, hurł lacing his voice. She wanted to believe him. He loved her right?

Hafsah let out a bitter chuckle. "Love you say? Do you even know what love means Zayden? You claimed you loved me yet you broke at the smallest sign of a storm. I cried myself to sleep because of you Zayden. Something I had never done, cry because of a guy. But you broke me Zayden. You broke me into a million shattered pieces." she could feel her walls crumbling. She wouldn't break down in front of Zayden. He wouldn't see her cry.

Farouq and Sameerah had excused themselves a long time ago. They didn't want to come between them.

"Haf-" he started but she cut him off. "No Zayden, let me talk. Why? Why did you do all that to me? Was I not good enough for you? Or is it because I don't party and do all those haram things you like? Everything was fine before that night. What happened Zayden? What happened to us?"

"Baby." he sighed. "Don't call me that, you lost the right to call me baby the moment you broke my heart." she said, her heart crushing as she spoke. "Hafsah, I know you're hurł. You have every right to but please give me one more chance. Just one."

"Give you a chance you say? What about Zeena? Lailah? You never wanted me, Lailah was all you wanted, all you needed. I want to forgive you but I can't bring myself to do it. My heart aches as I think of you. Do you know how much pa!n I had to endure watching you act all lovey dovey towards her? Of course you wouldn't. You don't understand the meaning of pa!n." she let out a hařsh breath.

"You never truly loved me Zayden. Were your feelings for me that superficial that you moved on immediately we broke up?" she asked, her voice cracking at the end. This was it! She had reached her breaking point.

"I loved you Hafsah and I still do. I fell in love with you not your body. I was misled by my hormones. I've changed Hafsah, I really have. Please, just one last chance? I promise never to touch you until you ask me to. I want to show you something. If after seeing it you don't want to be with me, I promise to let you be. Please." She could sense the sincerity in his voice. She sighed, nodding her head.
