Hurairah (ON HOLD!)

Chapter 11 - Part 2

You know that feeling, when your think your life's going too fast?, or when you feel like you're shouting and no one can hear you?

That's how I feel right now.

Alone. Forced. frustrated!

I let out a shaky sob as I strolled over to my room - where I'd lock the doors and cry till my hearts content.
But it seems Allah has another plan for me, next thing I know, i bumped into haroun who's attention was on his phone

"Aah, cmon you made me-" he stopped midway "are you crying?"

My answer was a sniffle and he pulled me in for a hug

"What is it!" He caressed my hair as I cried heartily unto his chest, this was one of the reasons I loved haroun, he had the heart of mama

"Baba said im getting married tomorrow," I sobbed " it was meant to be next week but...I don't know why he changed his mind "

I broke our hug

"I can't get married tomorrow" I looked pleadingly into haroun eyes and he let out a tired sigh.

"He's doing this for a reason" was what he said, and I couldn't help but to ask of he already knew

"So you knew about this?" I asked, backing away like he had insulted me, his eyes looked guiltily at me as I gave a short sadistic chuckle.

"Everyone knew but me..right?"

Again, he didn't answer , so I took that as a yes

"Even fahad?"

He shook his head

"Fahad is going to find out today"

"What the heck is this?, tell me..since when did we start keeping secrets from each other ya haroun?" I asked .

"Baba told us to keep our lips sealed" he said softly

"And so ..you didn't think it was right to tell me something that concerns my life, you didn't stop to think about how I'd feel"

"You know I can't go against his orders "

"What has changed you?, you weren't one to go with things that'll harm other people, and now the King tells you to do something that can ruin the relationship between you and your sister and you just abide by it"

"The king is our father!" His voice rose

"He is your father!" My tempo matched his " not mine, he stopped being my father ever since, he forced me into the alliance "

"From what I recall, he asked you if you wanted to go through with it and you said yes, so why are you acting like this?"

" If he truly understood me, he'd know what I'm feeling behind my fake smiles, he'd know when his daughter isn't really happy "

" but you agreed " he pressed on

I gave him one last look before running into my room and covered my self with a duvet, waiting for the morning to come.
