Behind that attitude.

Chapter 6

Farouk

Zayed and maimartaba are back home already. Am The only one in the house besides the maids i hardly see around.

For the past 15 minutes i've been staring at my food unable to touch it. Had it been am beside maama i would have beg her to feed me. I brought out my phone and dial her number, she picked up on the second ring.
"Maama, maama i can't eat" i whined.

I heared nabeela and the twins laughing and teasing me in fulfulde from the other end.
Maama shushed them and brought back her attention to me.
"Let jakadiya come, she will be telling stories as we eat. I will set you on handsfree"
"Okay" i said smiling.
Few minutes later, i heard jakadiya on the background. We chatted away together with the family as i had my breakfast.
.

I combed my hair, after wearing a casual shirt and jeans. I sprayed my favorite arabian perfume; oud. 

Its noon and just some few minutes back, i came out of a lecture. I decided to sit on one of the resting chairs outside. Students were busy roaming about.

I spotted that Amna girl few chairs away, shes on the phone, but i can sort of hear what shes saying. She seem sick, and not even notice me, i know she would have tried talking to me.
She's talking in fulfulde.. Asking for the address of a family doctor
"Ha direwan gwan tu'al"( the papers are here with me)

She seems to be in utter pain. She's holding her chest, rocking front and back, biting her lips, eyes red.... FAROUK!!!! Yelled a voice in my head !stop looking!

I then averted my gaze somewhere else, to my phone.
The next time i looked up, she'd already collapsed!
Lying helplessly on the floor!
Her phone by the side!
Papers scattered all around!

Swiftly i picked her up and managed to pack her things. Ignoring the little crowd that had begun to form, i put her in the car and drove as fast as i could.
