Broken Vows COMPLETED √

Chapter 19

'Hey sweets' Musa said while leaning in to kiss my forehead.

'Where have you been? I missed you so much that I thought I'd die' I lied with a poker face.

'Awww I missed you more baby girl. I went into town to run a few errands for Jamal' this idiot is lying to my face

He went in to take a shower and I took out his pj's before he finishes and sprayed some perfume on them.

When he got out, I helped dry his body and apply some lotion to the places where my hands could reach and I helped him button up his pyjama shirt. I bet he will be surprised because i have never done this

I got up earlier than usual so I could make breakfast for my husband and I.  I made some pancakes with tomato and pepper sauce just the way he likes it and I made a strong combination of black flavoured tea. I took everything to the room and laid them out on the carpet.

We ate and talked about our childhood, school and other relevant stuff and when we were done he said he had some errands to run so I smiled and made dua for his safe return.

I got bored of being in the room all day so I decided to take a walk around the backyard to while away time before he comes back.  I walked around to the gazebo and sat in the seat facing the garden and stared leaving my mind blank.

I felt a big warm hand around my shoulders pulling me into a hug from the back... His perfume was captivating. I stayed in that position not wanting to break free till he does but he had no intention of doing so so I moved a bit and he removed his hands.

'I'm sorry' he said. Why was he sorry?  Wait...that wasn't musa's voice. I uickly turned and saw Jamal standing with pleading eyes looking down at me.

'Zahra I've done wrong, please forgive me. I should never have treated you that way even if I didn't love you. I've learnt my mistake. Please just say you forgive me and come back to me. I know that no matter how much I apologise, it won't change your mind but still I beg you to have mercy on me,  please zahra'

I felt pity for him...A little bit because what he said took me back to memory lane. He really treated me like cap and I wasn't going to forget it so soon. I opened my mouth to speak but I heard footsteps approaching us and I figured it was musa so I quickly walked to where I heard the footsteps coming from and I guessed right,it was him. I pulled him into a hug and planted a kiss on his cheek.

'What took you so long my love' I asked not expecting an answer from him. He simply ran soft strokes on my back and returned the kiss...Fool, I thought.

In his mind he thinks I'm head over heels in love with him and I'm sure he is laughing at my stupidity not knowing he is more stupid than I am... I am definitely far ahead of him in this game. Somewhere behind me is bahijja who is watching this scene in delight from her bedroom window. She probably thinks I've fallen for this silly charade they've put on. I bet she is happy because she thinks I'll be out of her miserable life soon...Well, let me keep her entertained before the table turns...

*Jamal's POV
I felt feelings I've never felt before and just when I decided I that I needed to make things right she ran into the arms of another man. I felt my heart break a little when I saw how happily she hugged musa, my errands boy of all people. What does he have that I'm lacking? Why did it have to be him? I should never have let her marry him in the first place because I now know for sure that she will never be mine.

I walked towards the main house when I noticed that bahijja was staring at something and smiling mischievously from her bedroom window.  I turned around to see what it was when I spotted musa and zahra. Why was she so engrossed in their life? Something fishy was definitely going on because a woman would never look at her husbands ex wife with that much happiness. She's definitely up to something and I need to find out.

I walked into the surveillance store and looked through their catalogue but I just could find what I was looking for so I turned to leave. Just before I got to the door, on of the staffs there approached me and asked what I needed.

'You don't have what I need, have a nice day'

'Maybe if you look through out catalog you'll find something you may like and we also have new stock which haven't been included in the catalogue.'

His voice was so annoying. It was so tiny that it sent chills down my spine and why was he trying to fake an accent?

I took a deep breath and followed him to the other side of the store where he showed me the new items and before he got to it, I knew that I had found what I was looking for.
It was a micro camera which was wireless and could be operated easily. It could be connected to my mobile phone and I will be able to see what goes on at home in my absence. It was just what I needed. I got twelve of them to put in strategic and dread of the house because I'm sure bahijja was definitely up to something and I had to find out since it involved zahra...
