Tangled Hearts

chapter two(lied to mummy)

I angrily drove the car home expecting a huge scold from mummy,oh my God the way mummy loves this car is out of this world.

How could i even get home with this car like this?
'Well are you going to amend it before going home?'my inner self said.

OMG i hate this Mubarak without even knowing him and by Allah i promised to take it upon myself to make him regret this.

But how?
I asked myself.
Maybe tomorrow when i reached school I'll ask Jalila so we can come up with something.Since she knows him so well she could help me think of something i could do to revenge.

Now let me just concentrate and think of how to enter that house with this car like this,what would i tell her?
Should i tell her that i was engaged in an accident?no but there are no injuries on my body.

Okay how about i injure myself a little so she wouldn't even think of the car but me.
Yes this is just a perfect idea.
But how do i enjure myself?should i just hit my head on the steering until blood pops up in my head?
There's no way I'm trying that,what if i die in the process.

So many questions but what do i do???

Okay i know exactly what to do,I'll just go to a clinic and get fake plasters all over my body and tell them that someone came to my aid and took me to the hospital.

Yes yes this is perfect.

All this stress because of you stupid man,I'll teach you a lesson just wait and see.....

I did exactly that but i won't tell you guys how difficult it was for me to convince the nurse i found in the clinic to help me get the plasters on,she refused at first but after hearing what i had to tell her,she helped.

After entering the house,i parked the car and got out.

Opened the main parlour's door and saw Ummi massaging mummy's feet while talking,not that i know what they were talking about.

They all raised thier heads up and looked towards the door.

Immediately they sighted me,they came towards me looking tensed.

"Innalillahi wa inna ilaihir rajiun,maimunatu what happened to you?were you in an accident?is your body hurt?"

She started asking these numerous questions touching and inspecting my body from head to toe.

I immediately felt bad for lying to her seeing the look on their faces.

Before i could open my mouth to reply,Ummi continued from where mummy stopped.

"Aunty Maimunah are you alright?"

"Okay you all should calm down now,I'm fine i promise,it's just minor injuries but you won't notice untill you calm down"

I said.

"I was just involved in an accident but I'm fine,a lady helped me to a nearby clinic and got the injuries dressed" i added.

"Subhanallah i hope its not very bad,come sit down"

Mummy said and helped me to a couch.

"How did it happen?"
Mummy unexpectedly asked.

I did not plan for this,what should i say?but i guessed there was no time for me to think.

"Ehm i--l----don't know,i m--mean ehm--"
I had nothing to say and thankfully mummy interrupted.

"It's okay,you just need to relax now,did the clinic gave you some drugs to help heal the injuries faster?"

"No they didn't"
I blurted.

'Which clinic is that that doesn't give their patients drugs?"

Ummi asked.

I know right Ummi.

I'll call your father now and let him know,Ummi help her to her room so she can rest.

We stood up to go but i stopped and turned to mummy.

"Mummy--ehm your---your"
But she interrupted me.

"My car right?i know,a car can be repaired but you can't so Alhamdulillah you are alive,what matters right now is your health,just go and rest now"

What the hell just happened???

It worked guysss it worked,i felt like jumping out of happiness.

"Thank you".

I felt a feeling of relief and guilt at the same time.

If not anything,i lied to them and made them worried for nothing,may Allah forgive me...........

*Next morning*

Everyone was at the parlour except Ummi,maybe in her room getting ready for school.

"Good morning mummy,good morning daddy"

I said walking towards them.
They looked up hearing my voice.

"Maimu how is your health now?are you feeling any better?"
Daddy asked almost immediately.

"Alhamdulillah daddy,I'm feeling very much better now,i think i can even attend class later"

"You must be joking,you are not going anywhere"

Mummy said with a 'dont even beg me face'.

"Mummy is it not early for me to start missing classes?,by Allah I'm fine now,I'm even healthier than the both of you"

I joked but only daddy smiled.

"Since she said she can,then fine she will go but she won't drive again anytime soon"

Daddy said.

"But Alhaji her health"mummy complained.

"Don't worry I'm fine mummy"

"Okay then just be careful"

"Thank you mummy"............

*ALHAJI BADAMASI DANSHI'S RESIDENCE*

*Omniscient*

In a really fancy living room,It's huge and has super high ceilings with silver colour decorations. The walls are a deep and rich colour, and there are fancy curtains on the windows.

The floor is made of shiny marble. There are big, soft couches and chairs in deep colors, and they look really expensive. The room is filled with beautiful art,s that has so many meanings with everywhere smelling amazing like fresh flowers, and every single thing in the room screams money, there was a woman sitting on one of the couches in the gigantic parlour.

She was wearing a bubu sky blue lace with a touch of golden colour flowers on it.

With her there was a young lady around the age of 21,they were talking and laughing looking so admirable.

But who are these people????....
