Rafeeq's P.O.V
"Junior mom I will be so happy if you would postpone coming here till next week Gaskia."I said to junior mom who just called to inform me that they maybe coming to the states this week.
"Why yarima,senior queen really wants to see you guys moreover we want to check on rafeeah and how the unborn baby is doing."junior mom said.
Unborn baby.....
Allah knows I've long forgotten the lie that we did back then in Nigeria.Ya Allah....now what are you going to do.
"Are you there."junior mom interrupted my thoughts.
"Yes well as I was saying am intending on planning a surprise anniversary party for our wedding so I wanted you guys to attend it,am sure rafeeah would be really happy."I said.
"Oh I see,you should have talked since,my child is in love and trying to work on his relationship....I like that."junior mom said teasingly.
"Junior moooommm."I groaned.
"Don't junior mom me,I will discuss this surprise of yours with senior queen am sure she would love it."she said.
"Fine,I have to go now.Bye and take care."I said before hanging up the phone.
I smiled looking at my phone thinking of what junior mom just said to me.
In love....well maybe am in love.
No it can't be,I can't fall in love again after all that wicked woman whom I considered to be my wife did to me.I can't trust any other woman again.All women are the same.They will first treat you will respect and care,shower you with immense love and just when you decide to trust them and live your life for them,then they will ditch and abandon you like a sort of trash without considering for once about your feelings.I can't trust women again.
No,never!!!
"If you are not in love then what is this,caring and showing affection to her what would you call that."my conscience asked me.
Wait even I don't get to think straight now,is it that am really in love with her or is it something else maybe am possessed with her.Yes maybe it's possession but not love.
"Accept it or not but you are in love...in love...in love...in...."
"Nooooo."I shouted unknowingly trying to deny what my heart is telling me which drawn the attention of some maids that were working around me.
I threw them the focus-on-your-work look and they all continued to work.
"Oh I have to start making preparations for the party,today is Tuesday so I have only five days from now to arrange a grand party.I smirked just imagining rafeeah's reaction when she attends the party."
I took out my iPhoneX and dialed one of the best parties organizers here in the states.
"Hello,this is the Sharma's decorations and you are speaking to the supervisor how may I help you sir."the man that just introduced his self as the supervisor said through the other line.
"You are speaking with Prince Rafeeq,I need to make appointment you your company."I said in an authorative tone.
"Y...e...ss... S..ii...rrr. right away."he said panicking probably because he heard who I was.
It was useless to reply so I hanged up the phone and called up my secretary.
"Good afternoon sir."she greeted.
"Make me an appointment with the Sharma's decorations."I said negleing her greetings and went straight to the main subject.I couldnt wait to hear her reply cause I've got weigh to much things to handle so I hanged up the call.
"Assalamaailaikum."I heard a sweet melodic voice that I've been secretly yearning for greeted me.
"Waalaikumus salam."I answered her back smile widely.
"It seems you are too busy that you don't even have time for your friend."she said pouting like a small child driving me insane.
I stood up from my table and went towards her with a long stressed face.
"See you've been working and you look so pale.Have you even eaten."Rafeeah asked a little worried.
"Am fine okay,it's just that junior mom called earlier and am bothered by what she said."I said looking away.
"What,is something wrong back there."she asked trying her best not to panick.
"Relax it's nothing serious,she said that I should tell her what is your due date."I said looking at her face with blankly expression.
"Due date.?"she exclaimed more like a question.And then suddenly her eyes lit up clearly evident that she now understood what I meant by due date.
"Innanillahi,yarima I've totally forgotten about all this.Ya Allah what are we supposed to do now."she said now panicking.
"Hey it's not something so big so relax."I said trying to relax her a bit.
"I should relax.No I can't yarima."she said with a cracky voice.
"Listen..."
"No I refuse to listen yarima.I simply refuse.All this while you've been talking while I've been listening but this time I wouldn't listen.You should listen to me,I told you not to lie to them like that but you refused to listen to me and now what you.still want me listen."she said sobbing furiously.
"I've already thought of what to tell them.Lets just tell them you fell off the stairs and as a result you miscarriaged the pregnancy.That's all."I said hoping she will agree with.
"It's so easy for you to say that yarima.Just remember that by saying this we've got to break our dear and loved ones heart...and by one everyone in the palace have come to know,what would they think and say.This really isnt right."she said before standing to leave.
I processed what she just said and quickly held her hand before she left the study.
Lucky enough I dragged her and pinned her against the wall with my large broad chest.
"Where do you think you are going without me sharing my new idea with you."I said in a coarse tone.
"Huh."she asked uncomfortablely because of how closed we were.
"Yes,I should just get you pregnant,that way our loved ones heart won't be broken and we will shut everyone's mouth up right."I said in a seductive tone.
"Wh...a..t a..r...e you say..in...g."she said with a shivering and cracking voice.
"Did I say something wrong,you are my wife afterall and we ought to have did this long time ago right."I said almost in a whisper.
