Rayan's POV

Mommy, she's finally gone. We all stayed at Mr Affans house after her death. We could remember every memory of her. How she made us keep fit. We eat so healthy, apart from Sundays, when we stuffed our faces with ice cream. I couldn't still believe she had cancer.

I was standing in the graveyard, watching them lower her corpse. Everyone cried and the amount of people that we're present amused me. That when I knew the world only knew and wanted good people, like my mom.

I looked at my whole family cry under the rain except her, Yasmine. She had a good heart, that would never cry, but I know she could feel the pain, because she was mom's favorite.

Mr Affan's POV
Have a sit all of you. I looked at my children. I've shared your mom's property and you all have taken your inheritance. Now I want to read her last message to you all

Oh, please don't daddy, Jasmine said I feel so scared, you reading it will just make me cry she said, hugging Yasmine, who seamed to have a straight face. Quiet Jasmine, it's gonna be well, Sunni tried to comfort her. And I started reading the message.

Mrs Affans last message

To Affan: don't do that stupid stuff saying you won't get married again. Get married to another woman and always tell her you love me like crazy.

To Rayan: I knew you do steal junk food from my kitchen at night. Then you let me blame our maid, Amina. Just become super rich like we planned. So you can show Affan that you don't need his company to be great.

To Jasmine: you are sick for destroying my chance of becoming the mother of a princess. Just know I love you.

To Yasmine: the queen without a king, the true madam. I beg you get a king. If you see, one don't hide your feelings like you always do. Forever my favorite kid.

To Sunni: why didn't you tell me you didn't like your husband. FYI I know you think he is cheating on you. He is not. So please stop. Making him sleep in the basement.
I love you guys, please don't forget to pray for me.

Love, Anita (Mrs Affan).

Yasmine's POV.
I stayed in Affan's house taking care of him and my siblings, who didn't want to stop crying. Sunni and I were trying to pull them together. It always got worse when they entered her dressing room or see her belongings. They forced me to use her stuffs for charity and burn the necessary ones. God it was so annoying at a point. It made me always go to work angry.

One day we were having a serious meeting. Then I complained we had been on the hyper speed train topic for a long time. People should please talk so we could move on. Then a guy said we can't move on if I always come late. Then everyone decided to laugh about it, including Jafir.

I looked at the guy and asked, are you nuts?. Excuse me? He asked. I repeated my question asking if he wanted a sack letter so he could comprehend the question. He looked at me and saw the glare I was giving. He replied, no ma'am, sitting up immediately. Thank you, now can we continue I said, like nothing even happened. I looked up to see Jafir, he looked pretty impressed.

After the meeting on my way out people were just addressing me as ma'am. It was good but annoying. I entered my office and saw Jafir sitting in a corner.

So I came for your mom's burial and didn't see you he said standing up to help me get a file at the top shelve. Why are we always like this he asked. Like how? I asked him. In this particular scene, when you are trying to get something, he said leaning in. I don't know I replied taking his pen from his suit pocket to sign a file. I sat on my desk.
