One Moment More

Prologue

"My hand, please let go of my hand," I whimpered as her nails dug into my skin.

I hated her nails, they were always big and she knew exactly how to hurt me without anyone seeing.

I swallowed and spoke "please I will never come in your way again, I promise, I will never show my horrible face to you ever again, for Allah's sake please leave my hand!"

She pulled me closer and dug her nails in deeper.

"No one will be happy with you even your own husband will hate you more than we have, you're nothing but a burden to everyone."

Tears built up in my eyes, I couldn't cry no not now. But it hurt, it hurt so much.

Everything she does, every time she speaks to me it always hurts me.

I pulled my hand away from her and turned and walked away forcing my tears behind.

I walked towards the corner and ending of the marriage hall, where no one could see and I slid down against the wall and closed my eyes.

I knew it was not the right time to cry so I just cuddled up and took small breaths and tried to calm myself down.

I shook my head and thought I can't break, not now, for my sister I have to get up and get through the night, it's just one more night then I never see them again.

I was getting up and turned around to walk back to the front of the marriage hall when he stood in front of me. He was looking so curiously at me and I couldn't even explain the look he had upon his face.

"Are you okay?" he asked

I forced up a smile and spoke "Why wouldn't I be, I just had something on my dress so had to come here and clean it up. We should head to the front, or others will think wrongly of us."

He nodded and held out his hand.

I didn't hesitate I took his hand in mine and we walked back to the front of the hall. I don't know why or how but his presence always makes me feel better.

We were about to walk up the stage when he asked "what happened to your hand?"

I looked up at him lost, what was I going to say now....?
