Life with Love✓

Chapter 13

Hauwa's POV

My family and in-laws were supposed to come visit because of the baby.
But how do I tell them that there was no baby again, how would I tell them I was...I was raped?
I was really upset with Yaseer for not coming to my rescue.
He tried talking to me, but I just turned deaf ears.
"Am talking to you."he followed me to the study.
"And so what? And so what if you are talking to me? Do you expect me to act like some fairygod mother and know who... Who did this to me?"I snapped at Yaseer with anger.
"Baby girl, I know how...."I cut him off.
"No no no, don't even say that, you don't know how I feel, you don't know how it feels to be..."I paused and swallowed a lump of saliva that had formed. "No, you don't know how it feels to be in this condition."I began to cry, then walked out of the study with Yaseer still trailing behind me.
"Hauwa, Hauwa."he called as we entered the room.
"What?! What do you want Yaseer?!! I need my space for crying out loud!!! I need space!!!!"I yelled at the top of my lungs and went to the bed.
"We can go through this together baby,"Yaseer still didn't give. "Remember you said 'Allah wouldn't want any of his slaves to be sad, so just have faith and everything will come to pass, you said that, and I started living by that."he reminded me and pulled me into his arms.
"But.. But I was assaulted Yaseer, he made me lose my baby. "I cried in his arms.
"Don't worry, i'll get to the bottom of all these."he reassured.
"But what do we tell our families? Do we tell them I was molested and lost the baby?"I looked into my hubby's eyes.
"I got an idea."he smiled as he placed a kiss on my hair.

....

"I hope Yaseer has not been troubling you o, because this boy."my mother in-law asked.
"No momma he hasn't, he behaves himself pretty well."I smiled.
"So, how about the baby?"Umma asked.
"Please show me around the house."Safiya whispered into my ear.
How did she learn to say the word 'please'?
I bet umma taught her a regrettable lesson.
"Later."I whispered back.
I was about to respond to Umma's question, but Yaseer spoke.
"Yeah, the baby is totally fine, we even went to the doctor today for a check."Yaseer said in one go.
"That's nice."Umma and Yaseer's mother said in unison then giggled about it for about twenty seconds.
I didn't still get why they were laughing....
Old people..
We all chatted, then had lunch.
"Ya Amir fa, why didn't he come?"I asked.
"He had some errands to run at his new work place."Umma replied as she dipped her tuwo into the Mian kuka (kuka soup).
"Toh."I nodded.
When we were done eating, I showed Safiya around the house, and she was all like "Wow,the kitchen has ACs? You also have an indoor and outdoor pool? I can't believe this."

Seconds turned to minutes, then flew into hours.
"Bye."Safiya waved happily.
"Mun gode(thank you) for the hospitality."Umma appreciated and got into the cab Yaseer had hired for them.
"Momma, so are you going to stay overnight?"Yaseer threw his hand over his mother's shoulder.
"Habibi, sorry but I won't be able to stay, I have check on the saalon."she gave Yaseer a kiss on his forehead, the one filled with motherly love.
"Haba mana, please stay."he pleaded.
"Sorry, bye."she grabbed her handbag and exited the door.

Yaseer's POV

"Why did you have to lie?was this the idea you said you had?"Hauwa asked.
"Yeah this was the idea I had, and if I had said the truth, you would have been embarrassed, humiliated, then start a whole round of crying."I told her.
"Hmm... So this is the way you said we were going to go through this together right? Lie to our families and be proud of it? Yaseer I never thought you could be like this."she shook her head in disappointment and started to walk away.
I pulled her arm making her turn to face me.
"Oh, you think you can say whatever you want whenever you want?"I held tight to her arms. "Well, did you forget that it was because of you I had to lie! You could have defended or protected yourself!"I spat in her face.
"Wow, I can't even believe you are saying this, now you think it's my fault, if I wanted to sleep with another man, then I would have never slept with you,"she removed herself from my grip. "Then where were you that night Yaseer, where were you? I got assaulted and you blame me for that, you are unbelievable."she walked out of the room and slammed the door hard.

Hauwa's POV

All Amar told me that day couldn't just turn my life upside down... Could it?
First Amar calls me a cheap slut and gold digger, I got raped, lost my pregnancy and now my husband thinks it's all my fault.
Wow!
I made up my mind that I wouldn't be sharing a room with Yaseer I'd better sleep alone.
I just couldn't take it no more, I felt like committing suicide.
My whole life was now all f#%×ed up.
All this stuffs happening in my birthday week.
Oh God...
I was turning twenty in three days time, and all these were happening to me.
Was I jinxed or what?
Just then, my phone rang and I picked it up.
"Hello Hauwa."the voice said.
"Who's this please?"I asked already overwhelmed.
"It's Khalid."
"Khalid? Oh."I recollected immediately.
"Long time, it's been a while, so I want to come visit at your house."he spoke in his british accent.
"Umm.... No don't."I said at once.
"Why?"
"I mean, we barely know each other, you are just a stranger that helped my sister and I, please stop stalking me, I am....."I paused debating whether or not to say it. "I am not interested."
"Hauwa, I don't have feelings for you, I just want us to be friends, nothing more."he said obviously telling the truth.
"Okay bye now."I hung up and flung my phone across the room before getting on the bed in the guest room.
That was where I was going to be sleeping henceforth....
