Don't let your tongue mention people's fault.. You are also full of faults and people have tongue too.. ~Imaam Shafi'i.

NOUR, Ra'eesah's mother.

CHAPTER THREE-LIFE SAVER

"Come down and clear this living room you bastard" Mommy yelled..

"Good morning mommy" Ra'eesah greeted..

"I didn't call you here to greet me. Useless fowl" She roared

"I'm sorry" Ra'eesah spoke almost inaudible.

"And what are you waiting for?!"

"Mommy when she is through I want her to wash my clothes"-Sabirah spoke..

"I have to be in school by 8:30, and it's already 8 o'clock.. I promise to wash it when I'm back" Ra'eesah spoke calmly..

The hot slap she received from mommy made her shriek.

"And what if I say you are not going to school today"? Mommy blurted

"Mommy I'm sorry but today is going to be my first time attending classes.. I wouldn't want to miss it"

"Then you are not going! She yelled.

"Enough of all this drama please! Go and get Ready Ra'eesah you aren't going to miss your class.. And you Saabirah! You are a fool. How can you wear your clothes and make someone wash it for you? Don't you know how to operate the washing machine? Saajidah spoke burning with anger..

"What do you think you are doing Saajida"?! "Making justice"

Let's go Ra'eesah.. Saajidah dragged her hand as they vanished from the living room..

Once in Ra'eesah's room, Saajida started complaining about Mommy's habits.. "I don't know when Mommy will know what she is doing is not good.. For goodness sake just because her daughter failed her exams due to lack of seriousness doesn't mean she'll Force someone to stay for another year.. And see how she is maltreating both you and your dad. I hate the sight wallah.. But I promise to defend you whenever she try to humiliate you. And please Ra'eesah, make sure you take care of your father.. For you are the only one that'll take care of him.. I know you are facing a lot of problems, but please brush it off and do the right thing.. Allah is with you. Now get ready we need to hurry to school".

By the time Saajida was done talking, Ra'eesah was having a second thought about her being Mommy's daughter; they're different in every way- incomparable can be used to distinguish between them.. "Thank you my life saver" she finally said.

"Let me say Salaam to daddy before heading out" Ra'eesah smiled at Saajidah. "Okay then, I'll be waiting for you here"

"Yaa A_Jay when are you going back to KD? Naseebah asked her big brother..

"Are you missing the handsome and charming young man already" Abdul-Jabbar raised a brow.

"C'mon Yaa A_Jay I'm serious. Our graduation is on Saturday Inshaa Allah"

"I'm sowie lil sis, I'll be going back to Kaduna hopefully on Thursday bi'izhnillah".

"Okay then, less I forget, Ammi is calling you".

Heading to his mother's room, he Salaam-ed before entering. A_Jay found a spot near her leg and sat.

"Masaahul-khayr Ammi" he greeted respectfully.

"How are you doing Abdoul"? Pleasantries were exchanged and she informed him about the sudden journey his father announced earlier.

Standing in front of his mirror, he placed his hands on his pelvis as he stared at the young man facing him.

Abdul-Jabbar, a young Islamic scholar, the first child of his parents, a brother of three siblings, an intelligent young barrister with a very soft heart is determined to find a girl he saw her picture in a photo studio when he was seven.

His Hazel Brown eyes roamed around his well built broad chest.

"Salaam Alaikum" A_Jay was brought back to the world with his father's voice.

"Wa'alaika-salaam. Please do come in Dada"

"Uhm. You see, the reason for this abrupt journey is because there is this friend of mine that we've been together since our college days. After graduating, we still used to keep in touch. But over the years; slowly -we stopped even calling each other. After trying my possible best to reach him through the cell phone, I couldn't.

Though I still can remember his house, then I just decided it'll be the best if I personally go and check on him" A_Jay's father explained.

"It's really a good idea Dada" he flashed a smile.

"I have this feeling that I'm about to meet you soon Rouhie. I love since from the day i found your picture. Believe me I was ignorant of love then.. But the lessons I was taught with this picture is countless. I have a very strong feeling that I'll see you soonest. Take care mon Amor. A_jay spoke to the picture he held.
