•NAJMA's POV•

"What in the heck are you doing here Tariq Al-Fayeed ?"

Okay I need air, my face is burning, my palms are wet and everything is just too much ! I hate this silence, he's not reacting, not saying anything just looking at her. Not even a glance on me. That's too bad. Anyways it's just a crush, it will eventually go.

He left the room, slamming the door behind him without uttering any word and this made my eyes shine with tears that I'm struggling to not drop in front of anyone. I don't want anyone to see the weak part of myself.

"Naj, don't drop tears, come here" she opens her arms wide for me to get in and embraces me tightly.  That made my tears to drop more and more.

Why am I even crying over this ? He didn't say he hates me or anything.

"I'm-I'm really so-sorry, I should've paid attention before sa-saying anything. I feel so bad"she stutters, soothing me.

I put my head up and hold her face with my hands "it's not your fault alright ? You didn't see him and that's okay. It's no big deal, really. Now I need some rest, I've to leave you" I kiss  her forehead then leave.

"Why do you seem so down Naj ? Anything wrong ?"questions Zouhair as he enters my room with his kids and I muttered that I'm fine. "Okay then. Please stay with the kids, I've to go out with Didja and Leila"

"Where's mum?" I ask and he says mum is out with Ms. Shaima "ohh I see, where are you guys going to without me ?"

"To look for an apartment. We will be living here now" he smiles and I ask why "Job, take care of my kids" he kisses them good bye and goes away without thinking about kissing me good bye too. WOW ok bro.

"Come lie next to me" I call them and they do as I said.

"Chima I want ice-cream and Suhail wants ahmmm" she puts two of her left fingers below her chin in a thinking gesture "what do you want Su ?" and Suhail says he also wants ice-cream "we want ice-cream!"

"Okay wait let me call your father" I tell them before taking my phone from the nightstand.

After 3 rings, Zouhair picks the call "We want to buy ice-cream and I don't have money" I inform him and tells me to go take his wallet from his room. "Thank you, the kids are kissing you" with that said, I keep my phone, go to the bathroom and have a quick shower.

I go back to my room and wear a boyfriend jean and a white t-shirt with a denim jacket on top without forgetting my sneakers of course.

"Let's go kids" I say and they tee-heed, jumping up and down. Oh kids, they are so cute and innocent.

I take their hands and start walking out of the house. One of the drivers saw us as we stepped out and came towards us. "Hello kids" he smiles to the kids "Hi Miss, do you want a ride anywhere ?" he questions and I shake my head no telling him we will walk. "Well, then I'll go with you" and I just nod knowing even if I refuse, he will insist.
