YUMNA
I didn’t know what got over me but I wasn't ready for soothing words. But still it hurts that he just had to leave when I needed him the most.
Nqbeela entered, telling me that the gates to the palace has been shutdown. I was completely down to earth.
"Where us yareema, the police convoy wants to talk to him" rukayya entered too
" he just left" i managed to say.
"Call him then. We really need to talk"
She said.
I looked around and remembered my phone was in my baby's shawl.
"Oh no" i exclaimed
"What is it?" They all asked together.
"My phone is in my baby's shawl" i said and sat down clueless.
"Wait a minute" rukayya exclaimed and we all looked up.
"We can track your phone with mine. I have all your details. We shouldbe able to trackhim unless the phone rings and someone notices it" she finished qnd my heart lit up.
"Let's hurry then" nabeela said. She brought out her phone and turned on the tracker. And there it was, the red dot representing my phone was moving fast towards the cemetery.
He quickly left the house leaving the rest of the kids with hajiya and the maids.
The police convoy took of with us, i kept praying that my baby is alright. We reached the cemetery just in time to see  a woman leaving the cemetery in a hurry. Some of the police men went after her while i ran inside to where I heard my baby's cry. He was kept behind an oak tree. I carefully took him and removed my phone from his shawl. It has saved my baby's life.
"Shhh..it's okay habeeby"  i comforted all the way back to the car.  Rukayya came to me suprised.
"You will never believe who was behind this" she said while i just held on to my baby.
" i don't even want to know😪" i said and she left, just to return with the person I was least expecting. I could swear I felt my heart break into two. Never in my wildest dream would I think she would be the one behind it.
I couldn't believe my eyes.......

"HUDAHH!" i called and she looked up, tears formed in my eyes that instant.
"Why would you do this to me. What have I done to deserve this?" I said but her face showeno remorse.
"Take her away" i said and turned my head away.  We drove back to the palace and the news of the rescue spread like wild fire.
We all sat in the living room but this time, i held my baby. I wasn't sure i would be ready to give anyone in the near future.

YAREEMA..
I stayed in the part till it was time for prayer. I left and went to the mosque. Everyone was happy, some even came to tell me that the baby has been found.
Well atheist now they know I was lying when I said nadeera took him

I went back to hajiya’s part immediately after prayer to see my son.
"Salaam" i greeted as i entered
"Finally, the great yareema has decided to show up" rukayya said, ignoring my greetings. I sat near yumna who was holding my son. She quickly stood up and changed seat. I smirked at that.
"What did you guys decide as his nickname?" Hajiya asked
"Asim" i quickly said before yumna could say her own.
She eyed me but then said nothing.
"Nice name though " nabeela said.
"That brings us to the matter on ground. What have you got against huda to that extent?" Hajiya asked us. Yumna shook her head in negativity while i tried to remember where I heard that name before.
"What's her real name?," i asked to be sure.
"Fatima Salisu Zakar" zahra told me.
It was her..it really was my huda...my one time girl friend.
"Yeah, I knew her once too" i said and they all looked at me except for yumna ofcourse who pretended as if I wasn't there.
"It's a long story but to cut it short, she was once my gf back in florida during my university studies.  But then we broke up coux i wasn't sure i wanted her to be my life partner.
"That explains it all" nabeela said.
Yumna left in tears with asim to the room.
"You never told us this before" hajiya said frowning.
"It never came up but now its all over. She has shown her real colour and has gotten what she deserves.
"Yeah just go apologise to your wife" rukayya said and i frowned.
Why was everyone trying to get on my nerves today?
"For what? For dating her friend? Is it a sin? Who knows how many men she dated before me?$! I bombarded all at once.
"Take it easy boy" zahra said.
"Goodnyt " i said and left for our part. I won't talk to yumna of she won't talk to me.

YUMNA.....
I went back to the room to cry out my heart, I wasn't blaming yareema at all, it's just that I trusted hudah with all my heart. She was my best friend.
I had my bath and gave my baby, whom yareema has nicknamed asim, a bath. I laid him in his cot and sat there. I couldn't sleep at all, i was all stressed, yet nervous.
It was exactly midnight when asim started crying.  I took him and tried all my possible best to calm him down but all in vain. I gave up and called yareema,  hoping he would pick up which gladly, he did.
"Hello" I said as soon as he picked up the phone.
"Yumna,  are you alright " he said sleepily.
" it's asim..i can't seem to make him to stop crying"
"So now you know you have a husband huh?" He said sarcastically.
"Please,  this is not the time to be sarcastic you know" i replied.
"Come here to me. I am in our part" he said and cut the call. I sighed and picked the still crying asim. I managed to leave the part without waking anyone.  I was yareema coming our way so i hurried up. Only Asia's cry was heard in the midst of the night.
"Bring him " he said and i handed him to his dad. I felt a sharp painin my stomach though i didn't know why. I bent down a little to allow the pain subside.
"What is wrong" yareema asked as he placed his free hand on my shoulder.
I didn’t reply but managed to stand up and  follow him to our part.
"Ah" i exclaimed again when I felt the same pain but more severe this time and I nearly fell.
Yareema had gone to the room with asim who had stopped crying while i was still in the living room.
"He is now sleeping and...." he started but stopped when he saw me squatting again, i could feel my face warming up and tears were forming in my eyes.
He rushed to me and carried me to the sofa. He placed a pillow behind my backand asked what was wrong.
"Stomach " i replied.
He turned me over and raised my shirt to expose my girdle. He immediately unhooked it and i felt relieved.
