Twist Of Fate

Chapter 3: Change Of Attitude

Oh My Word!! We am sorry for not updating for long, please accept our apology but now we are back. .. Eid Mubarak! !

The doctor informed us earlier on that I needed to be on bed rest through out my pregnancy to avoid any complications. My husband decided to hier a maid but I refused because life has taught me not to trust anyone. I assured  him that I could take care of myself and Sa'ada could also help me out so he accepted and forgot about the maid issue.

Every second,minute, and hour that passed, Sa'ada was always at my service. She was always there for me, Sa'ada made me feel lazy because she never made me do anything. We usually ordered our food because my husband couldn't take the risk of making me cook and other domestic chores were done by a home service management. The way Sa'ada worked for me day and night made me feel pity for her but a voice kept on telling me "Habeeba, Sa'ada is not your blood but your unborn child is" I always tried to comprehend what that sentence meant but to no avail so I just put it in my prayers.

Habibty, I heard my husband. Na'am, I replied. Habibty, I have noticed a change in your attitude and I don't know why, he said with sincerity on his face. What do you mean?, I asked. I really Don't like the way you are treating Sa'ada now, remember she is just ten years old and she is also your child too, he tried to explain. I know she is just ten years old and she is my child but what do you expect me to? It's not my fault, I replied. You know if I was in a good condition, I wouldn't let her suffer, I added. No problem habibty, May Allah S.W.T guide us through the right path, Ameen, he replied. Ameen Thumma Ameen, good night. I added.

Sa'ada , Sa'ada, come here; I yelled. Na'am mama ,what should I do for you? She asked. I don't know what came over me then I started beating her mercilessly. She kept on crying and screaming for help but to no avail. I beat her up to the extended that she fainted and I also fainted. My husband came back home and was surprised that the whole house was so quiet and Sa'adah didn't wait for him at the front of the door so she could welcome him. He came in and saw the both of us lying helplessly on the floor, he then ignited the car engine and rushed the both of us to the hospital.

What is wrong with you Habeeba? My husband asked, for the first time in many years my husband called me by name, I knew he was really upset with me. Wallahi Habibi, ban San Mai faru da ni ba (I swear to God, I don't know waht happened to me) I replied. Keep your explanation to yourself, what if that little girl lost her life? She yelled , I am really sorry it would never repeat itself, I promised. Good for you, he added. We were late discharged from the hospital some few hours later and we all went back home.

My attitude and motherly love and affection towards Sa'ada kept on decreasing day by day and I couldn't explain the reason for such behaviour. My husband always scolded me becuse of that but as usual I kept on promising him that I would change. There was a time my husband threatened to divorce me if I ever lay my hand on Sa'ada and that single sentence broke my heart and destroy everything I ever had with Sa'ada. Since that day, I felt nothing but hatred and envy for Sa'ada. The only thing that made me so upset was because my husband uttered the word "Divorce " After so many years becuase of a child that wasn't even our blood then I vowed to make her life miserable till she breaths her last.

Oh My Word, I feel so sorry for Sa'ada...... Stay Tuned For More Dramas 😀
