Chapter  26


إِن تُبْدُوا۟ خَيْرًا أَوْ تُخْفُوهُ أَوْ تَعْفُوا۟ عَن سُوٓءٍ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَفُوًّا قَدِيرًا

"Whether ye publish a good deed or conceal it or cover evil with pardon, verily Allah doth blot out (sins) and hath power (in the judgment of values).


(Aaya 149, Sura An-Nisaa)

Two months had passed by in a blur.
He slowly got over the death of his father and even though he still had many regrets, he realised his remorse will not benefit him in any way, so he moved on.

As for Nazrana, well he didn't know if he had a chance with her, he didn't want to take a step ahead and be left dissapointed again. He knew he would live alone and die alone, no one wanted someone worthless like him around them. 

As for him considering the position of the next drug lord, his plans were already in action. He had cleaned out the entire basement of the house, he had gotten rid of all the junk that had been stashed there, he had it repainted and had some partitions built therein, so that he had extra bedrooms, not for guests ofcourse, to meet Davis's requirements.

He had set up a huge, flat screen television and a smokers lounge, alongside a small bar, also a  few secret safes and hiding spots that were well hidden in the most odd places.

This would be the hub of all evil, he would have the drugs hidden in all those secret places. He would hire prostitutes to please the men, and entice them towards his illegal business, he would also have a gang of his own, it was a dream come true for him, if only he knew this dream will lead to his own ruination.

After the basement had been repainted and all the required  furniture as well as hubby bubblys and what not were moved in, he called a few of his close friends who were involved in drugs for the grand opening of the place  he was proud of.

Once their eyes settled on the room, they whistled, impressed with the transformation.

Suhaib along with them was impressed at the outcome in such a short while, but he was not yet aware of the sin that would take place in this godforsaken place.

When he spotted the rooms that were partitioned off, each room with a double bed and a small set of drawers, he gave Talha a confused look.

"Why the rooms though?"

He quirked his brow.

Imraan sniggered.

"Keep up man! What do you think he will have rooms for, to entertain guests!"

They all laughed, while Suhaib shrugged, he didn't know what was so funny.

Imraan smacked his back.

"These are rooms for our entertainment and pleasure. You know what I mean by that?"

Suhain's eyes widened.
