Months later...

Hauwa's POV

"Hello Yaseer,expect me at your house any moment from now,coz I think all my moves on you didn't seem to work,I'll just have to come there and destroy you like you destroyed other people's lives,see you soon."the female voice hung up.
I picked Yaseer's call up coz he was in the bathroom.
Who was this person?
How did she know Yaseer?
Or is he cheating on me?

I sadly sat on the bed and waited for him to come out of the bathroom.
"What's up?why are you looking all angry and sad?"he adjusted his towel on his waist.
"Are you cheating?"I asked as I looked at the tiles.
"Why would you ask such?"was his reply.
I looked up to his eye and said "I just want a sincere reply,are you cheating on me Yaseer?"
It took him few seconds before replying.
"No..why would I? When I have a wife like you,how will I even think of cheating?"he touched my cheek in a seductive manner.
"Not today Yaseer!"I snapped.
"Then who is this girl?she called and I picked it up."I handed him his phone.
He went to the call log and dialled the number,it was unknown though.
The phone rang but no one picked it up.
"I don't know who this is, sincerely speaking."
I just eyed him in disgust and was about to leave the room.
"Trust me baby girl."he held my wrist.
I just looked at him then said "I knew you men were never loyal." I removed my hand and walked out.

Yaseer's POV

I called the number hauwa claimed called me again,but no answer.
That was when I got a message.

Unknown

Hey Mr,I'm already at your
Gate. Anyways,no need to tell the gate man to open the gates,I already found my way,just come and open the door,I'm sure your wife will regret ever marrying you, I'm waiting sweetheart.

I heard the bell ring and I ran like a possessed person.
"Don't open the door!"I told Hauwa.
"Why?!"she snapped and was about to turn the knob.
Finally she gave up and I opened the door.

What I saw on my doorstep was..was...

I was dumbfound..
"Are you surprised to see me darling?"she catwalked into the house.
I shut the door and walked to her.
"What are..you doing...here?"I was shocked.
She just smiled and gave me an air kiss.
What was ZARAH doing here????
"Sweetheart."Zarah was about to kiss me,that was when Hauwa came downstairs.
"What...what..."Hauwa blinked back tears before running back upstairs.
"Hauwa.."I wanted to run after her,but zarah held tight to my hand.
"Don't forget all you've done,today is the d-day for your wife to know your true color."zarah threatened before I forcefully pulled my hand out of her grip.
I went up to our room.
Hauwa was in one corner of our room hitting and banging on the wall as she uttered "I shouldn't have gotten married,I should have told umma I didn't love him,he's just..."then she bursted into tears.
I walked up to her.
"Baby girl,just hear me out."I wrapped my hands around her,but she just flung them.
"Please,"she put her hand in front of my face."I don't want to hear anything!it is clear that I don't belong here,I am not going to cry,I'll be strong and there's nothing you'll say or do to make me stay."she brought out her box and started removing her dresses from the wardrobe and stuffing them in the box.
"What do you mean?"I tried to stop her from taking more dresses, but she didn't give me a chance.
"If I need to spell it out,then I will!I am moving back to my parents house."
"What will people think of me?you can't do this."I said overwhelmed.
"Go downstairs,your wife is waiting for you."she didn't even spare me a glance.
She zipped up her box and started to walk towards the door.
"Hauwa I've been through a lot and you'll just leave like this?"I asked but she gave me no response.
I grabbed her hand and pulled her to me.
"I have been stupid enough not to have shared my problems with you,baby girl,we're not safe, someone is after me and they keep threatening to harm you if I don't fulfill their wishes."
She pulled back and looked into my eyes."why did you keep it from me then?or was I not enough for you to share your problems with?"tears clouded her eyes.

I didn't say anything,I just hugged her and she did the same.
As I hugged my wife,a figure appeared in front of me with a gun.
"Zarah don't..."I turned Hauwa so she'd be saved from the bullet as zarah pulled the trigger.
I fell on the floor as blood gushed out of my chest.
"This is just the beginning."I saw a blurry vision of zarah going downstairs before everything went black.
