Zarah's pov

Our flight was in two days but I wanted to be prepared so I started packing as soon as I got back to my house. I was done by the next day. Since i had nothing better to do, I drove to Zain's house and checked on his progress. It turned out that he hadn't even started packing. I was furious.

I didn't say anything to him. I just went straight upstairs to his room. When I opened the door, I saw two empty suitcases sitting on his bed. I stormed in and packed all of his stuff into those suitcases. When I was done I went into my old room and walked straight into the wardrobe, just to see if there was anything there that I had left behind. It was empty.

Almost as if I never lived there. It made me a little bit sad so I left the room and went back downstairs. Zain saw me just as I was about to go to the backyard.

"Zarah, I want you to meet someone." he said.

"Who?"

"Just someone..."

"Okay..."

Then he led me to the kitchen but made me wait outside. I wonder who it is?

He stood in the kitchen doorway so he was still next to me.

"Hey princess. Remember how I said I was going to go and find my queen?" there was no answer so I guess this princess of his nodded her head. For some reason I felt myself getting jealous but then I remembered that he called me his queen.

He held my hand and I felt goosebumps forming up my arm. He was gently pulling me into the doorway of the kitchen.

"Well, i'd like you to meet -"

"Auntie Z!!!"

"Camila!!" She ran up to me and I picked her up and hugged her so tightly. I haven't seen her in so long. When we were done hugging, Cami grabbed my hand and pulled me to Catalina.

"Mummy! Mummy, look! It's Auntie Z!" I hugged Catalina and we started talking. Then I looked back at Zain and he looked angry.

I stood up and started walking towards him but he backed away from me. I stopped, feeling so confused.

"You knew. You knew Cat. You knew where she was. And you never told me?!" He was so hurt. I could see the tears forming in his eyes.

"No. I didn't. I never went to her house. She would always insist on meeting at a park or restaurant. And she would make sure that neither me nor Christopher knew where she was living. Heck, we didn't even know her last name!" Zain just stared at me. It felt like my skin was burning under his gaze. I looked away and he started staring at Christopher.

"What's wrong Uncle Z?"

"Nothing's wrong my princess. Why don't you show Auntie Z you're toys?"

"I-" he looked up at me with a pleading look and that was enough to shut me up.

"Okay..." I said.

Cami took my hand and I followed her to the next room. The walls were painted yellow and there was a crib next to a dollhouse that was a head taller than Cami.

She had a barbie dream car and she had a shit ton of barbies. She had two Kens and a lot of Chelseas. When I was younger, my favourite doll was the Chelsea doll. I looked at her dollhouse and realised that it was a deluxe barbie dreamhouse. I wanted one of those so badly when I was younger. I wouldn't be surprised if Zain was the one that gave it to her.

"Hey Cami? Did Uncle Z ever talk about me?"

"No. He only talked about his Queen." I heard chuckling. I turned around and saw Zain.
