My Life in Pieces✔️:#projectNigeria

Chapter six

******************************
Aaryan's POV
She looked so beautiful in that dress tonight. I couldn't help but stare at her. The way she talked enticed me. Her voice was seductive and made me forgot the last thing I said or what I was about to say. I wanted to ask her out to dance but of course Khadeejarh came.

"Hey baby". She hugged me from behind. She started to irritate me. She was dressed in a red gown which had a huge sleet at the front and exposed her legs. Her breast were exposed and she had red lipstick on. She packed her hair in a bun.

"What do you want". I said coldly through my teeth. She was a nuisance to me. The contract was signed on Monday but still she wouldn't leave.

"Let's dance". She said and her breath smelt of alcohol that was when I noticed she was drunk.

"Please excuse me". I told Zoe.
She smiled back in recognition. I stood up and took Khadeejarh by arm not oblivious that my finger was digging through her skin. I was angry at her and dragged her through the dancing crowd.

"You're hurting me". She screamed as she pulled free from me. We were inside one of the rooms of the building.

"What's wrong with you. Why did you do that. Why did you call me that". I asked her. She was currently nursing her injured arm.

"Why did you leave me and go to her?. Wasn't she the girl from the other day?". She screamed back at me.

"Is that why you did that. Why did you get drunk?". I said trying to keep my cool the best way possible.

"Because I wanted to Aaryan Haroon and neither you or anyone should tell me how to live my life!". She cried and screamed. I didn't know what to do I hated seeing women crying.

"But that doesn't give you enough reason to intrude a conversation". I told her softly.

"You know what? Just get out!. Get out!!!!". She screamed as she fell to the floor. I didn't understand why she acted that way. I left the room and closed the door. I was about to leave but I was scared of leaving her alone when I heard

"I love you Aaryan and I hate myself for that". She sobbed

Zoeya's POV
I sat there and watched Fariyah and Aiman dance to manya by wizkid she was so happy and I was glad about that. She occasionally smiled,waved or winked at me. I searched for Mr arrogant but couldn't find him on the dance floor. I thought of the girl that interrupted us, she seemed to be his girlfriend. She was dressed tonight like a cover model, She looked red and behaved loose. I looked at the time on my phone and discovered it was 9 pm, that means I have to leave. I made my way towards Fariyah and Aiman to announce my departure.

"Hey baby, I gotta go". I said to Fariyah.

"Awwnnnnnnnn. So soon". She stopped dancing

"Stay a little bit". She gave me the puppy dog eye. Aiman excused himself maybe to give us some space

"And don't act like you didn't catch a fish". She wiggled her eyebrows.

"What. No. He was just...." I tried to explain to Fariyah. The music was loud so i had to scream for her to hear.

"Nope I understand. He's handsome though". She nudged me.

"No.... He's the one I told you about that bumped into me at the restaurant". I told her

"What. Heck no!. Are you for real?". She opened her eyes in amazement.

"Ladies and gentlemen how is the party going!!". A voice interrupted our conversation. It was Aiman talking on stage over the mic

"I want to dedicate this night to someone special. She's my rock, my reason of living, my heart, she is a person whom I've Come to love day by day. That's why I want to prove this to you. I don't just want to love you but to die with you. And that's why I am saying please marry me". He went down on his knees and brought out a box. I looked at Fariyah and she stood there shocked. She placed her hand on her mouth and opened her eyes. The crowd screamed obviously enjoying the telenovela. Aiman walked up to Fariyah and knelt down in front of her.

"Yes. Yes and yes. I would marry you a thousand times". She screamed. The crowd echoed her screams as Aiman slid the diamond ring on her finger. Fariyah jumped up and down in excitement and hugged Aiman. It was a beautiful sight and I smiled. Just then the DJ played Say you won't let go by James Author.

"May i have this dance?". Aiman asked Fariyah as the music started playing.

"Yes". She said drying up her tears. I was happy. I was happy that a person like Fariyah found happiness In true love. They went to the dance floor and danced to the song, other couples did the same. My phone vibrated in my clutch. I dipped my hand into my clutched and found out I had ten missed calls from mufeedah.

"Shit". I said trying to call her back. Mufeedah was a person who called only thrice if you don't pick up,but ten missed calls means something. So many things rummaged through my mind as I called her for the fourth time. What if she was beaten by thugs? What if something happened at home? What if..........

"Hello". I heard her voice over the phone. It sounded hoarse as if she had been crying all day.

"Mufeedah. Is everything okay?". I asked feeling terrified. After a long silence of about a minute she inhaled deeply and said
"He's gone. He died in my arms few hours ago. He left without saying goodbye". She said.

"Who is gone?". I asked her shaking.

"I can't bear the pain. I don't want to live again. It hurts so much Zoe. I don't know what to do. The doctor tried his best to save him but......... He didn't make it. I'm still at the hospital. I'm at your hospital. I'm so so tired Zoe. I don't want to live anymore". She sobbed over the phone. I could feel the pain and hurt in her voice.

"I'm coming over. Please don't do anything drastic. Stay where you are". I said as I hung up the phone. I wanted to tell Fariyah but she was really caught up in the moment and it will be rude if i interrupted so I walked out of the party and stopped a cab.

"Bukar's specialist hospital". I told the driver as I sat in the back.
The driver nodded his head and drove to the direction of the hospital.

*****************************
Mufeedah's POV
I sat on the floor in front of the OR. I was tired and had cried my eyes out. I saw Zoe step out of the elevator. She rushed quickly and sat besides me. I cried my heart out on her shoulder. I cried like I've never done before. I know that I looked like a mess and my mascara poured from my eyes. I didn't care. I cried for almost an hour and Zoe just comforted me.

"He was too young to die". I said to her. It was the first word i said after she arrived.

"We were just talking in the foundation and the last thing he said was that he loved me". I said reminiscing on the moment.

"He loved me Zoe". I repeated cause I knew it was sincere.

"Shhhhhhh. Its okay". She comforted me.

"Khalifa is gone". I said finally. I let out his name in pain.
