Breaking Him [Completed ✓]

*****Chapter ~Three*****

Maryam's POV

"I had no other option Maryam, Mom is sick".

Mom is sick? Mom is sick? For how long? I do asked of them from my family and they always assured me, they are all doing fine. Could they be lying?

"Mom...mom is sick?". I asked not able to control my mouth and emotions. I loved Mom a lot. She has shown me nothing but true love. She had always treated me like a daughter, I can't bear it if anything happens to her.

"Yes Maryam, Mom is sick. Ever since you had left, she isn't her self anymore. She got her heart attack back again and she was very ill, she was hospitalized for about 4 weeks and when her condition was getting better, she was discharged and her treatment is been given to her at home".

"How sure am I that you're not lying? May be you're just saying this just to make me come home with you". I glared at him.

"I can't lie with such a thing with you. Though, I really wanted to take you back but I can't lie with such a thing. I can't stoop so low".

I don't even know what I was feeling right now. Mom was sick? And I wasn't aware? Mom never told me anything. Dad too, even Maimuna! Why must they hide something like this from me? Why?! They know I love Mom very much and I can't bear if anything bad happens to her. I really need to go back,I need to make sure, she's fine.
"Maryam believe me, I wouldn't lie to you. I'll be going back to Nigeria next week Monday. I'll wait for you, so we could both go back together"

"And who told you, I'm coming with you? Even though you might be saying the truth, I'm still not coming with you". I spat angrily.

Who gave him the impression that we're now OK? One thing I hate about him. He and his stupid ego, he always thinks he could get anything anytime he wishes.

I was about to turn and leave when his hand hold my wrist firmly. "Maryam I'm sorry, if I may have offend you-".

"Of course you did and I'm not ready to forgive you yet, so please, just go away from my life! I don't want to see you ever again,I hate seeing your face, I hate you Kareem"

"I'm sorry but I deemed in going no where without you, you are my wife".

"STOP!...just stop it Kareem, I'm not your wife OK! I was never your wife! You never treated me as one,for all the time I was living in your house, you've always treated me like a maid! You've always treated me like a trash! You've never treated me like a wife! So please, just go and leave me alone".

"I'm sorry.....I'm sorry Maryam...I'm really sorry". He begged as he placed both of his palm on my cheeks. This moment, I wish I could forgive him but I Just can't.

"We can never work! It's over between us!".

"But you're still my wife! You're my wife!". He bursted frustratedly.

"We can get a divorce, I don't want to be with you again".

What's wrong with him? He never wanted me as his wife then, why now?

"No". He answered firmly.

"Kareem?!"

"No I won't.. I won't let you go again. I'll never divorce you".

"I hate you Kareem... I can't believe you just show up in my life after two years, claiming me back like I was nothing. Do you know my problem with you? You believed you have the final say! You believe you could do anything you wish to. Well, too bad I'm no more the girl you used to know. Why don't you just go and find someone else to fall for your trap because I'm never going to Kareem Abdulazeez" I finished bursting my heart out as I turn to leave but sees four pieces of eyes looking at us with wide eyes.
