FROZEN HEARTS

LIES!

Ahmad's pov

I hate women! I seriously loathe this creatures but its surprising how everyone who was advocating and fighting for my freedom were females.
My mom being the key woman, zay too. Regardless of all the risk she had taken and time too.
Six months on and she was in and out of the prison you would think she was one of the staff working there. Or probably a detective would do in her case, damn! Her dressing was always on point.Very poise and elegant any man would die to have her.
The years went so quickly and she had grown into a beautiful young woman. We had been dating for almost three yeare now yet marriage and settling down was never in my plan.
I just needed someone to support me especially now since I was a total dependent.
I seriously needed to redraw my life. I was tired and fed up of women helping me in my upkeep. I knew what i wanted after prison. I needed to finish my degree and get a decent job. I had no money but i had to finish my studies. Money? I can always make it in a legal way.
Women was the solution yet I hated the creatures with all my strength. They were characters who would do anything to get what they wanted.
I needed to be rich to get justice done for Munira.

Marriage was never in my plans. As long as I got a roof over my head, never mind whether it will be a great gigantic mansion or a mere shanty, as long as I was safely tucked away from the public and the harsh world. I had to get somewhere to lain until I made through my university and completed my studies. Maybe then, I will be able to raise my head high.

I had to get justice for Munira, my baby sister. Dad had murdered her for a reason I still look for its answers, yet mom covered up for him. Even after her marriage failed she still thought dad was never wrong and praised him alot.
Uuurgh! Life was not fair sometimes.

"Sonofabitch, we dont have to scream to serve you!" The warder yelled jolting me from my reverie.

" Yeah, you aint wrong doggie, my dad is a bitch! " I muttered adding onto his anger.

"Shut up or else all make you spend your whole life time in here, or you forgot my connections.

"Yeah, I'm aware you a first cousin to every big name around but surprise! I wish to stay here longer idiot! " I pressed on, now his rage was at the peak.

"You will regret young man! I don't swallow my words!" He spat with anger and rudely gave me the plate of food.

This was the order of the day in the prison , warders trying to pick on the prisoners, threatening yet we all were hardcores and we dismissed it as their bluffing.

The githeri was really cold after we had argued for long.
Sometimes the prison made me wish for death. I would pick on fellow cellmates but everyone was in no mood to cause chaos.

The mood was so tense. The floor so cold but it was in here that I made my life. I decided to change completely and I had to do so when I got my freedom back.
Living on hope was bad but i had to not give up.

Munir was what bothered me the most! Why would a father kill his own daughter then divorce his wife?
Why would a mother go on to support the death of her own flesh and blood? There was a hidden mystery and I had to unlock it. I knew my mom and dad had a reason but it was scarey how no one talked of it.
Ooh women , curse marriage burn all that marriage came with.

I was looking forward to when zay would visit again, maybe I can know how soon I will be out of prison.

ZAY'S POV
Derek had not been picking my calls! What can it mean? Was he afraid to tell me he dint make it or was there a surprise he had kept instore for me.

I was so tense I decided to pray two rakaats.
Just as I was done with my prayer, the phone rang!

Alhamdullilah! Its Derek.

"Zay, you there?" I heard hos voice.

"Yes Derek, any progress? " I asked impatiently.

"Relax, Gondi is just here in town, we lost him last night but I promise you he will be in by tomorrow morning. Whatever we have set for him is one he cant escape."he said with strong affirmation.

I was almost sure he would bring him. Ahmad's freedom was so soon I could almost taste it.
I was excited so much.

"Alright Derek, I trust you. I swear when you get done with this, blessings will follow you everywhere" I said, truth is, I was unsure of what to say next. It was the best news ever. The rest of the plan was in Ahmad's hands. He had to convince Gondi he would never let him down.

Tomorrow, I would go meet him in jail and give him the good news. And soon he will be out! In sha Allah.

Yesmin's pov

Ya Allah! Who took the documents I tucked in my safe?

Calm down Yesmin, its there. No one can find that out!

Its my secret and I will go with it to the grave! Munir is dead surely and that is it.

I did it for her dad and he left me after, even after I did what he wanted but still.
Its painful I lost my daughter in such a grievous manner. I prayed so I can be forgiven but I still felt rotten inside.

"Sushi! Come here!

"Yes ma! What is it?"

" Have you seen some documents in a yellow envelope in my safe?"

"No ma! Why?" Were they important? "

"Forget it sushi" I dismissed her.

Ooh Allah, am I running mad? They were right here a week ago. I always double checked to cornfirm. Whoever gets hold of them would send me to jail. But sushi was as young as ten so she could not know what was inside! But no one else comes.

I freaked out maybe it could be Munira' guilt that was haunting me. I was so freaked out I laid on the couch for a minute.

****************
"Is Ma alright uncle?" I asked.

"Yes sushi, she has just passed out but she will be fine" I assured her.

Sushi cried but got over it.
"Your mom will be fine"

"Okay uncle".

**********************
The guilt
The pain
The blood
I prayed
I repented.

It goes on and on and on.......
