I was sleeping peacefully when my brain decided to wake up. I groaned because of that and snuggled closer to the thing which was really warm. I mean, this country's really cold, so..yeah. That was when my mind worked really good and my eyes widened. Aneel.. I opened my eyes and saw him looking at me with an amused face.

"Comfortable?" he asked smirking. I closed my eyes and moved away a bit. Yesterday night was another thunderstorm. I was so scared that I just crept into his room and slept next to him without him knowing.

"Very" I replied. He chuckled and stood up and went to the bathroom.

"Aneel, where are we going?!" I yelled at him. Aneel was in the living room watching TV while waiting for me. He said that I needed to get ready but he wouldn't say where we were headed.

"Just shut up and get dressed. We don't have all day" he said and I just ignored him. I was braiding my hair when my eyes suddenly closed. I was waiting for the voice, but it didn't come. I groaned out loud like a horse that made Aneel laugh.

"What happened?" he asked, still laughing. I just shrugged my shoulders and ignored him. I finished my hair and took one last look in the mirror. Someday, someday I will wear a hijab, I thought to myself. I made my way over to Aneel and he was already heading to the door. When we went outside, I saw a man walking up to Aneel.

"Hamza, you are going to be at a distance, okay? Don't be too near, they would find out that I am not alone and then they would think we are with too many" he said to the guy and the guy just nodded. I rolled my eyes and started walking away. Aneel yelled my name and ran up to me.

"Sahr- WAIT" he said when I ran faster. He caught up to me and grabbed my arm before intwining our fingers. I stopped running and just walked. I hadn't given him an answer but I felt good about my hand in his so I didn't take it back.

"Why are you using people as a bodyguard?" I asked him. I mean, it' insane, isn't it? Why would you use someone like a slave. Everyone has the same rights, right? And why would someone be a bodyguard?

"It's his job. Now hush" he said tugging me along. I didn't say anything because I was stubborn and he hushed me. Why would I even talk to him, when he didn't want me to.

"Sahra?" he said but I ignored him and turned my head to the other side.

"Ah, come on? Silent treatment? Okay. Be childish like that" he said. Stupid. Stupid Aneel with his stupid beautiful green eyes and his stupid breathtaking scen- Stop. I closed my eyes for a second and opened it to clear my mind. I just ignored him and he sighed, giving up.

We were near the mall when someone from my other side grabbed my arm. I looked tat who it was and my eyes widened. How did they always find me? Before I could say anything he talked.

"You need to come with me" Yassir said, looking really nervous. I wondered what had happened. Aneel interrupted, as always, when I wanted to answer. He grabbed me by my arms and put me beside him. I saw that Hamza coming towards us with his hand on his back.

"What do you want?!" Aneel asked Yassir. Aneel looked very angry while Yassir kept his calm.

"Go out if the way, Osman. I need her, not you. Yasmin co-"

"Hamza, take her with you. Now" Aneel said while pushing me to Hamza. What was he thinking? He was not allowed to boss me around like he was my owner? I wouldn't let that happen. I pushed Hamza away but he grabbed my arm. Didn't he know not to touch a woman?

"Let go off me" I said and he let go. I turned towards Aneel and he looked at me with an eyebrow raised. I walked over to Yassir and stood in front of him.

"What's the problem?" I asked. I saw him smirking towards Aneel and then turned to me again.

"You need to come. Mum wants to see you, please.." he said. M..What? My brain didn't work for a moment and I closed my eyes while my hands went up to my head. I didn't think of the fact that I also had a mother and father. I completely forgot about that. 'Did you know that Jannah is under the feet of the mothers? You never met your real mother. You have to be very thankful. No matter what, she carried you nine months. She went through the most painful pain. She didn't want this. Just to have answers on your questions, go and see her. You both deserve it. Even though you won't forgive anyone, just go. Because one day it can be too late, and then you don't have a chance anymore', it was back. The voice was back! Alhamdulillah, I thought to myself and made my decision.

"Okay. I'll come with you" I said queitly while nodding my head. I needed answers. Right now. I would go crazy if I didn't. I needed to do this.

"Sahra are you out of your mind?! Its too dan-"

"It's Yasmin, you idiot" Yassir barked back at Aneel. They yelled a few things to each other that made me roll my eyes.

"Stop! It's Sahra. And Aneel, I am going with him. You in?" I asked him while looking at him with hopeful eyes. I needed it. I needed him to be there. I couldn't do this alone. I couldn't go to the thruth of my life without him. I needed him there. I really did. He looked at me, begging with his eyes saying 'no, don't do it' but I shook my head. I thought.. I thought that maybe he would care.. maybe he would just set the enemy stuff aside and be with me there. Guess not. I turned around and signed to Yassir to go. He nodded and walked over to a car and I followed. I stepped in, not looking once at Aneel. I was nervous. Too nervous. Not knowing what was going to come. Not knowing why I even agreed to this.

"And don't think that I believe that you are my sister. My sister is dead. You are not my sister. I do this for Yessin" he said speeding off. I was confused. Dead? But didn't they give me away? I shrugged my shoulders and shook my head. I didn't want to think about it. I only focused on the meeting with the woman who let me have this life..
