Worldly desire

Chapter Eleven

Mami, please it has not gotten this far. I promise to sort this out. Mubeen said in confusion.

Munaya was speechless, she never expected her mummy to go this far.

I love my husband so much, how can I cope without him.

And you, don't even think I will change my mind about this. She said to Munaya which brought her back to reality.

What are you waiting for? Give me what I asked for. Mami raised her voice at Mubeen.

He knelt down and held her legs, begging her to change her mind but she kicked him away.

Am giving you a week to bring the paper to me, she said and held Munaya out.

When they left, Mubeen sat on the couch and kept pouring out his feelings in form of tears.

His mind wandered from one thing to another.

His heart was pounding heavily for what just happened was very severe.

He made to stand up but his leg couldn't get hold of his body. He fell and slumped on the floor.

Mami, you shouldn't have gone that far. Munaya said to her mummy the moment they stepped their feet in the sitting room.

Mami gave her a slap and pushed her so hard, she fell on Alhaji's body.

Safiya what is the meaning of this? Alhaji asked her while getting hold of his daughter.

Don't mind this fool, she said pointing at Munaya.

Here I am trying my best to see that your future is bright but you kept on sticking to that good for nothing husband of yours.

Now see what he has finally done to you. You rejected the senator's son because of that poor thing, just to end up in a miserable marriage. Hajiya said in a terrified manner.

But Mami, you should have given him a chance to explain. She said twisting her mouth.

Keep quiet and go to your room this minute. This time around, it was Alhaji that shouted at her.

Munaya didn't say a word again but walked towards the way leading to her room.

She stood still for a moment, turned and took a glance at her parent before going in.

Safiya, take things lightly. You know this is our daughter's future we are talking about. Alhaji said to her when Munaya left.

Alhaji this is your fault too, you let her have whatever she wants even though you knew this marriage won't turn out to be good.

Munaya is never going back to his house again and even if she does, that would be after my dead body.

Mami said and left to her room leaving Alhaji behind with so much running through his mind.

He sat on the couch and kept thinking about it.

Babe gist me na, a lady said to Samira who was busy sipping her drink.

Lubna stop disturbing me please. Samira said to her angrily.

Haba just because I want to know how far you have gone, you are giving me attitude right.

It's okay, no problem. I won't ask you again. Lubna also said angrily and stood up to leave.

Samira held her hand and made her sit. Am sorry, she said.

Her attention was diverted when she saw Kamal coming their direction.

Hey we need to talk. He said and she looked away.

Am talking to you bitch. He said again and this time sounding angrier.

She became a bit scared and stood up. Follow me, he said and led the way out.

When they got outside the bar, he gave her two hard slap on her right and left cheeks then said, one is for messing with my friend and the other one is for lying to me.

How dare you think I can be fooled this way? He asked her and she began trembling with fear.

Ohh you think you can play me and then go after my friend.

You lied to me that you had a miscarriage thinking my emotions can be swayed right? Well you are mistaken.

And let me warn you, don't let anything happen to my baby or you will suffer the consequences.

He said and left in anger leaving Samira behind devastated.
