AFMAL { Editing }

Chapter fourteen

  I dedicate this chapter to Bilkeesu Musa,thanks sister.

   Why the long face Ummi...What happened to you?

     Bahijjat it's just that I'm thinking of Umma,I miss her alot and no matter what I do to contact her Abba will most definitely find out.

      I have an idea, why don't you just video call hamma Affan, he'll make your mood better.

      Good idea Bahijjat I think I'll call him right away, but please get me a glass of water first.

        Ok belaaɗo, Bahijjat said as she went to refill the jug with water.

Here's your glass of water Ummi.

    So fast Bahijjat?...did you run?

   Whatever, I'm not a fool to run with a glass of water just call hamma Affan ASAP. She said handing the glass of water to ummi.

   Thanks dear. she replied with a smile as she collected the glass of water to drink and picked up her phone to call Affan.

  Assalam (short way of saying the tasleeem) hamma Affan. Bahijjat said waving at Affan while sitting beside Ummi.

   Wassalam (short way of replying to the tasleeem) Bahijjat.

    How are you hamma Affan. Ummi said.

    I'm fine and you?

    Same hamma.

    By the way, why do you look stressed out? Affan asked with a worried look.

    Hamma it's because of Abba, he banned me from meeting Umma,and to top it all these Afmal lovebirds of a thing is getting on my nerve because all my plans mostly flop. Said ummi in a tensed tone.

    Who's Afmal? Affan asked in a curious tone.

    It's...it's one of my cousin you see, well she's having a problem with her relationship, she always fights with her boyfriend and...so...so...we want to bring them back together. Bahijjat said in a tensed tone.

    That's good, what's her name?

     Well her name is Afrah while her boyfriend's name is Kamal, that is why we gave them a couple name AfMal, but most of Ummi's plans flops that's why she's stressed out.  Bahijjat continued.

      I see, so my girls are trying to unite two lovers, I pray you succeed and as for Umma I miss her alot too, just don't disobey Abba if you want the best for her because...he paused.

   Because of what hamma? Ummi asked in a curious tone.

   Just forget about it, you won't understand dear.

   I will understand you, just tell me please.

    Goodbye I'm busy.

     Ok let's forget about it since you don't want to tell me what's bothering you, anyways I'll find out sooner or later, goodbye and I love you with all heart hamma.

     I love you too my little princess, and Bahijjat please send my regards to your parents.

       Ok I will hamma, she said before she disconnected the call...Hey Ummi what has gotten into you? infact do you know what you almost did at all?

     I'm so sorry Bahijjat, I don't know how I almost spilled out the truth, Alhamdulillah (I thank Allaah) you handled it very well.
      
     
    Ummi I think you need to rest.

    Ok I will.

Ever since Bahijjat spoke about the Afmal couple, all Affan could do was think about them.
      The couple's name even matches mine and Amal's name, AfMal he said to himself while settling on his bed and smiled while continuously repeating AfMal over and over again, what am I thinking of? She can't be mine, the more I think of her the more I won't be able to move on, I'll be endangering her life from Abba, come on Affan what's wrong with you? AfMal is Afrah and Kamal's couple name, and not for you and Amal. 
       I'm thinking too much, I think i should just go and meet William, maybe he might help in distracting me from thinking about Amal, yes let me call him to know of his whereabouts, he picks his phone and dialled his number, come on pick up the call, please pick it up William, oh no he isn't picking up, I don't know what's wrong with me today, why do I feel restless and why is my heart beating so fast? Why am I still thinking of Amal and why can't any other woman replace her from my life? Should i accept one of those girls asking me out in order to move on and forget Amal Ya Allaah please choose the best for me. he prayed as he raised his hands up, maybe if I listen to a heartbreak song then I might feel better, he grabbed his phone again and went straight to YouTube, he saw many heartbreak songs but he clicked "Too good at goodbyes" by Sam Smith, instead of feeling better infact he started feeling worst and the more he continued listening to the lyrics the more he felt guilty, all of a sudden tears rushed out from his eyes....I can't withstand this pain anymore, i can't live without my Amal, why is Abba so ruthless? Ya Allaah please save me from my heartless father, ya Allaah please grant me peace of mind and happiness, I can't control myself anymore, who should I ask for help? Or should I ask for Mukhtar's help again? No way he won't help me after all that Abba has done to him, he'll never think of helping me but will William ever be of any help to me? no way he hasn't been to Nigeria and I can't risk his life? Affan continued to wonder, Ummi! yes she might help me, she once asked for who Amal is and I ended up hurting her, Affan stop day dreaming, if Abba finds out then he'll make her life a living hell, and i might also risk Amal's life, i have to stop being selfish and act selfless. He said to himself.

      I know you can't hear me my dear Amal but all I want to say is I really missed you so much, and I'm so jealous of the people who get to see you everyday, who laugh and talk to you, i really miss your beautiful smile my belaaɗo, I know we can't be together, and we'll never be apart because we share a strong bond that nobody can break except the Almighty, and no matter where life bring us to,we will always be together we can't stop thinking of each other and I just want you to know that nobody can take your place in my life, may Allaah protect and bless you wherever you are my beloved, I'll always be yours my beloved queen Amal.
