THE HEIRESS

12:Paid

October,2020.
Abuja, Nigeria.

"Maheer, am going to the mall to get some groceries my friends are coming over during the week " i told him while he was seated on the couch watching soccer.

"Ok, come back safe"he just mumbled his focus was on the game

"Maheer, no goodbye hugs"I questioned
I stood there waiting for him for my hug, he walked towards me without caring about his path, the arm chair was in between us he climbed on then hugged me and screamed "Goal" into my ears because the team he was supporting won.

I face palmed and stoke my head "oh Maheer!"

"Bye,i will be home soon" i said closing the door.

Our relationship was improving though he told me to get the fact of having kids out of my mind but I couldn't let go I didn't want his family to think i was barren but Maheer kept insisting for the right time he wasn't ready because deeply he knew i was not.

Xxx

"Miss,your items has been paid for"the cashier said

"But i just came back with this bottle of youghrt i just kept my stuffs and you are saying its been paid"i was surprised because i went to get youghrt for Maheer after i told the cashier to sum up things before i came back and now they were paid for.

"Who paid it?" I questioned

"I did"i heard a masculine voice say out I turned to see who it was.

"Abdulkadir...what is it again?"
He motioned and picked up the shopping bags and went out of the shop,he acted a little bit sane.

"What do you want?" I asked him
I surely didn't want cause any scene in the shop earlier he leaned his body on my car and didn't utter any word but kept staring at me.
"Who knew Maheer could you make you happy but it wont be for long"he smirked evilly

"I think you should move on Abdulkadir, its not worth it. I found someone better than you and am now his family"

"Maybe you wont have him for so long"he said scratching his hair and massaging his temples.

"What do you mean?"i knew something was fishy.

"Wow! So your darling husband hides important things from you,you should ask him when you go back home but you guys wont be together for so long because i told him you are not a virgin"

I didn't realize when my hands flew and a slap landed on his face.

"Don't ever dare come near Maheer if not you would be the last person to be killed by me and if you try destroying my marriage you will end up in hell"my lost burning fire was raging and i knew i had to stand up for my husband he needed me now.

I mounted my car and banged the door without caring about the speed limit i drove home i was really impatient and i knew Abdulkadir was more than a threat but something kept running in my mind that something much more dangerous was ahead.

I locked the door behind me and said my salam, maheer was sitting on the stool at the island i dropped the the groceries on the island and walked to my room.

"Rukayyah, is anything wrong you didn't even say hello when you came inside the house"He spoke out while holding my arm at the lobby.

"Wow, Maheer you need an award for all this,have you considered acting?"i said letting go of my hands from his grip.

"What do you mean?"he questioned

I walked into my room and removed my shirt and fell on the bed then released a huff of breathe.
