CONTRITE HEARTS

CHAPTER TWELVE

MUNIRAH's P.O.V

I am really an emotional person, little things, very little things get to me and even though I might appear cocky and mean as people always say but at the end of the day it's just a coping mechanism not to let people get to my vulnerable side, I grew up as an only child but sharing has never been something I have problems with but I never thought I would share a man I love with anyone the few men I dated when I was a teenager I would end the relationship if I saw them glancing at any woman so been in this situation having to share the man I love dearly with someone by Allah it hurts me a lot and I am been patient.

"Toh what is the point of you crying?

"What should I do?"I ask exhausted.

Halimah sigh and sit next to me.

"Come on,
Why can't you just answer his call and talked this thing out?"

"Why can't he come?
He took the last day we were supposed to spend together left me stranded at school and then show up lying to me that his wife was sick,
I don't know,
I don't think I can continue with this torture as a marriage,
He doesn't care about me anymore,
I am not pregnant and........

"Of course he cares about Niinii,
He came here and you refused to let him in,
he tried making conversation with you at school you refused,
He called you didn't picked,
What exactly do you want him to do?
You are pushing him away and you forget the fact that,
The farther you pushed him the closer you make him be with Aisha,
Ya Abdul love you, I know him and if there's anything building between him and Aisha then it's merely infatuation,
You two have been together long and now you are married relaxed your mind and enjoy your matrimonial home."Halimah says wiping my tears.

I don't think there's any amount of word that can make me feel better,
If only I can get pregnant then perhaps this will be a lot easier for me I know the only thing pushing him to be with Aisha is the pregnancy I know how much he loves and admire kids.

"Now get up let's get ready,
We need to be at Kubrah's place before the introduction arrived."she says staring worriedly at me.

I stand up tired, these days I'm more exhausted than ever I don't know perhaps if it has to do with school stress or his own stress.

I choose a simple maxi trouser with its matching top,
Getting ready has always been a hassle for me so it's no surprise by the time I was done kubrah is bombarding our phones with calls.

The drive wasn't a quiet one halimah narrating how perfect her marriage life has been just as she predicted it to be while I sulk with my thoughts,
We arrived at kubrah's house and the familiar black Audi drove inside the house, my heart instantly start beating rapidly with anger of course as my pulse picked up instantly.

"Maybe it's not him."Halimah says and the car parked in front of the porch we are in the garage so it's difficult to spot us.

"Of course it's him and his pregnant wife."I say after Aisha comes out from the front passenger side she has a happy smile on her face and I look down, my eyes already burning as I tried hard not to blink but couldn't hold back my tears.
