Chapter Forty Four

Maryam's  POV

"HOW DARE YOU KISSED ME YOU MORON!!" I wanted to shout at him yet no word came from my mouth,the tickly sensation seem to remain in my cheek

In a blink he was back at the other side of the table and sat on his chair like he didn't do anything wrong. This was the hardest breakfast I will ever have in my entire life,not that the food is bad but the jerk sitting across me who was eyeing like a glue is the problem

"Son,I thought you wouldn't be coming home until next two week?" Dad asked him as the four of us were in the midst of our meal

Kareem who was still looking at me  answered as he answered " I'm taking a vacation,I'll be spending two week with you all"

He was looking at me as he said those words.... what? Was he referring to Dad or me?

Mom giggled "Alhamdulillah finally you're taking a vacation"

"Well I thought you're going to work your self to death " Kareemah said mockingly

"You're right, but that was then but now I'm taking a vacation because I now have a reason to take a break" he stated and he smile at me

I glared at him but I never said anything else he might be thinking that I'm assuming things again.

"Erm Mom..Dad?" I spoke out as I tried to get rid the inner tension I was feeling

"Yes dear?"

"I'm expecting a visitor today" I announced nervously. I had to tell mom and Dad about Mansur in front of this proud man

I saw him furrowed his eyebrow as if he wasn't expecting this

"Visitor? Who?" Dad inquired, quite surprise

I turn my face to Dad "the Governor son Dad,you know Mansur Shabsuma? Your friend's son in-"

"What?!" Suddenly Kareem's voice interrupted my statement

I looked at him and furrowed my eyebrow " got any problem? "

He bit his lip and didn't talk anymore. Seconds later,he went back with his food but didn't eat anything

"The governor son?" Mom asked her self "Zainab Shabsuma's Son?"

"Yes Mom..you're right..the governor wife is your friend,isn't she?"

She nodded her head but she seemed not pleased with it. She glanced at Kareem,he was back staring at me but not saying a word,instead he remained forking the egg in the plate like he was torturing something

Poor food

*****

Mansur arrived at exactly 10:00am in his car,he looked handsome,in fact he looked totally hot wearing sunglass. He wore a tight fitted blue shirt and a white pencil trouser with a white canvass

"Nice dress"

"Thank you....all thanks to you" I said shyly and he smirk After thanking him,I led him towards the main door of the mansion

Two maids who were sweeping in the compound stared at Mansur with displeasure. When we walk past one of them I asked her "Got any problem Firdausi?"

"N..no Mrs Kareem" she stammered

"Actually you can call me Miss Maryam" I said and she nod bowing down her head

I smiled at her as if telling her that it was just OK

Then unintentionally I look up at the second floor and my eyes landed on the balcony where Kareem was standing and watching both Mansur and I. I choose not to mind him

*****
"Mom this is Mansur" I said to Mom when Mansur greeted Mom. Dad is out for an urgent meeting

Mansur bowed his head to Mom "How do you do Ma?"

Mom scanned Mansur face "I'm fine...please take a seat"

Mansur take a sit in front of her and I sit beside him. They started the conversation. Mom was asking Mansur about his studies,sending regards to his Mom

******
"Are you with Mr Kareem again?"

I shook my head "no we're not together Mansur, I'm only here for Mom not for him"

"Thank you for that!" He breathed in relief

"Why are you thanking me?" I smiled at him

"Because that means I still have a chance...right?"

I examine his face and saw sincerity

Mansur Shabsuma...understanding, sincere,good looking,soon to be a doctor,wealthy,soon to be a statesman from an influential family....God I could see a lot of good qualities in him. What else could I ask for?

But the question is 'did I feel something for him?' Like right now sitting beside him and facing him. Did I feel butterflies in my stomach? Did I feel my heart skipping?

******

It was almost 11:00pm when I heard a knock on my door. Could Mom be looking for me? I got up from my bed and put on my small veil to cover my hair but I was putting on a golden night dress which is not above my knees. I walk towards the door to open it, a bomb exploded when I saw who was standing in front of me

"Hi beautiful " he said softly

Realising that I was only wearing a night dress,I tightly wrap my arm around my body,I raised a brow at him "Kareem what on earth are you doing here? It's 11:00pm already!"

He batted his eyelashes before he spoke out hoarsely "I can't sleep"

"You can't sleep that's why you're here? What kind of nonsense is that?"

How could he show him self up here like he was ever welcome

"My heart is aching " he said breathing heavily as he stared back into my eyes

I eyes him confusedly "Here I can't sleep" he patted his left chest softly with his right fist

Oh now I get!  he was trying to put up his drama show again

"Oh really? Then I think what you need right now is a doctor,unfortunately I'm not a doctor" I said sarcastically

Did he really have a heart illness? What kind of a ache was he referring to?

"Now scram! I'm about to sleep" I tried to close the door but he quickly place a foot on the door stopping me

"You're really annoyi-"

I wasn't able to finish what I was about to say when Kareem grab my two arm and said "first I can't sleep because I can't help thinking that you're only one room away from mine. Secondly,I can't sleep knowing that you were with a guy today and you seem to enjoy his company. I'm your husband for Allah sake!....now tell me how am I suppose to sleep?"

Did I hear all his words right?

As far as I could remember,he didn't have any feeling for me. So what was he telling me now? Was he jealous of Mansur?

"Well first of all if you can't sleep with me being in a room away from yours,then may be I should just get my self out of this mansion!"

"And secondly,my relationship with Mansur is not your business! I was never your wife and I'll never be!"
