THE TALE OF SARAH

Chapter Eleven

Dedicated to isiaqfatiah❤❤❤

And to my darling SweetDoodles, congratulations on completing your wonderful book, "I'll Burn Out Someday". I'll be waiting for 'For One's Honor'.

Sarah was moping the large living room. She had finished sweeping the floor and dusting the furniture. She was now moping. She was reciting the verses she had read recently from the Holy Book while gripping the mop stick, using it to sway the wet thrums from left to right when she heard footsteps coming from behind her.

Her heart fell down from her chest. Wasn't she the only one in the building? She turned around as quickly as possible to check who it was. She didn't have time to process the fact that it was Hamad before her already trembling legs started to move her swiftly.

But she realized way too late.

Hamad grabbed her by the arm and pinned her to the closest wall, which was behind her and crashed his lips to hers in a brutal kiss.

She struggled to push him away but it was very futile as it only resulted in the forceful kiss being more brutal.

It didn't take up to five seconds before hot tears gathered in eyes and it took only a fraction of a second for them to roughly spill down her cheeks.

She was helpless.

Very helpless.

'Ya Rabbal 'Alameen, come to my aid.'

She couldn't bear it anymore.

Fortunately for her, the Idiot's phone rang from inside his pocket. She watched as he was about to automatically reject the call when his brows creased, then he let go and answered it.

Still in tears, her trembling legs led her out of the dreaded building into her room in the quarters as quickly as possible.

It happened again.

She was about to jump on her bed and cry there until Zuhr, when she noticed in the mirror she had quickly passed that her lips were chapped and bloodied in different places from the kiss.

She closed her eyes tightly in helplessness, letting a fresh set of tears fall. That's when she felt the sting. Her lips stung bad.

Without any energy left to stand further, she fell face first on her bed and cried her mystery out.

Fa'iza had had a very fun visit this time around. Her aunt and cousins gave her a surprised visit. Although she didn't want to leave because only God knows when next she'll see them again, she had to and that too early in order to keep her promise to Sarah to be back by three.

As she stepped into compound through the large black gates, she noticed how empty it was. Only a few of the workers decided to stay back. Plus she probably will be the first to arrive back because of Sarah. Speaking about Sarah, she actually got her a pair of purple sandals. She knew her enough to know she'll love it. She'll always tell herself and Yusra, "Sandals are bae. They hold your feet intact even when you're in a hurry." She smiled at that thought. In fact, she just realized how much she had missed Sarah. She was excited to see her. She quickened her pace and went towards Sarah's room even before hers.
