"We decided that when Farah wakes up she will recuperate at her parent's house" It feels like I've been splashed with a bucket of water, I couldn't believe my ears.

"Mom, what are you saying? I can take care of her at home"

"Yes you had me right, we've already discussed this and we think it's the right thing to do." She stated as if it's nothing big.

As if she doesn't care about what we're going through.

"I love her Mom, how can you say that" I muttered the last part, the word sounding heavy on my lips.

"You don't love her, you pity her that's just it."

I turned to Farah's mom whose face shows disappointment. "Aunt please don't separate me from Farah, I really love her." She kept her face down without saying anything.

I stared at them dumbfounded, why is everything turning against me. Is this the punishment for my mistake?.

But I don't want separating from her to be my punishment.

Ya Allah.

    J A W A D"Don't touch me." She said. It took me some minutes to register what I just heard her say. I access her face for any form of joke but found none."Farah, don't you recognize me? It Jawad your hus.." I tried saying but she cut me off."I know who you are and I will like it if you will leave, I don't want to see your face." She spitted. This is not the Farah I know.Something must be definitely wrong with her."Mom, let's call the doctor to check her up this is not my Farah," I uttered once again, looking at my mom in disbelief."Nothing is wrong with her Jawad, didn't you hear what she said, she wants you to leave," Yasmin answered in place of mom, hatred clearly written on her face. I turned to Farah again in the hope that she will say something but, she turned her back to me, which hurt me greatly.Not knowing what to do, I find myself slouching down outside the room. I rest my hands on my head.You screw up badly Jawad.Maybe she's stress up that is why she said that to y

    F A R A HA moment of silence fell on me as I gaze at the window glass but my mind is purely occupied on something else. I heard my sister's voice, turning my head away for a moment, I glanced towards her, a look of anger flickers across her face."Sis Farah, you're still at the same position I left you in." She said placing both her hands on her hips.For some reason, gazing at the window like this made my mind off things. It's been a week since I've been discharged from the hospital and I must say Mom and Yasmin made sure they took care of me."Sis can you cheer up a little bit, I don't like seeing you like this, it pains me." She ushered sitting on the bed. "I know ja.." "Don't!" I cut her off. Just hearing his name pisses me off. Thinking about the past, I was such a fool in thinking maybe he will change. Maybe we will leave a happy married life but I guess I'm wrong Jawad will never change.The buzz of my phone brought me back from my thoughts. "It's yours," Yasmin muttered fro

    F A R A H My mind was preoccupied with what mom said.Am I ready to go back to him? Don't be silly Farah, he's your husband. my inner mind tells me. I wrapped a hijab on my head, I need to cool off my mind. My legs are now better I have nothing to worry about."Mom I will be right back, I'm going to take a walk," I shouted enough for her to hear, as she's in the kitchen."Okay take care of yourself" she answered back. I inhale a sharp breath feeling the cool breeze. Finally, I've been out after staying at home for a while. I sat down on the empty bench letting a smile out of my lips. As I glance up to the sky, I close my eyes feeling some sort of relief. I felt a presence beside me, turning my face, my eyes met with Jawad. First time seeing him after the incident at the hospital. His face looks different with more stubble laid on his jaw, wrinkles under his eyes. he looked so pale. I stand up immediately realizing what I'm doing. I started walking towards the direction of Allah k

    F A R A H 2 weeks laterTwo weeks passed by in a blur and I must say Jawad is trying his best to win me back although I've been testing him frequently by coming late to the office or making him cook at night. Sometimes I used to think maybe I'm too harsh on him but I still need to know if I can trust him again. You're silly Farah. how much more are you going to suffer him? "Don't you think the test is too much, I can see his eyes that shows how much he cares about you." Aunt Fatima said beside me. My eyes went to him who is busy in the kitchen his back facing us."I know aunt," I replied back, letting out a sigh. Seriously, Farah, something must be wrong with your head, can't you see all the things he's doing just to show you that's he's changed what do you need again. My mind tells me."And here's your dinner." He announced placing a plate of freshly made spaghetti with sauce in front of us."Thank you, son," Aunt said. He watched me curiously with his gaze waiting for me to tast

    F A R A H"And no matter how you try I won't back off." Saying that I pushed him back feeling like my heart is going to explode by our close proximity."You're really something." He said storming out of the room. I sat at the left corner of the bed resting my head on the headboard.Why am I being so hard on himMy heart is wanting him but my heart won't stop me from playing hard to get.Ya AllahI checked my phone's clock seeing that it's time for prayers. I carried myself to the bathroom performing wudhu and then spread the prayers mat and prayed Isha Namaz. Raising my hands up I prayed to Allah.Ya Allah whatever insecurities I'm feeling make it easier for me to deal with.Ya Allah give me strength and increase my Iman, guide me through the good path. I stayed on the prayer mat for almost one hour praying and I feel so much better after telling my problems to Allah.Prayer is the key to any problem.After folding the mat, I laid myself on the soft bed letting sleep take over me wit

    F A R A H It took me a minute to register what just happened.Did he just ignore me?My lips form an 'O' seeing Aunt confused gaze on me. Did I say it out loud?I ate my breakfast in silence, thanking Allah for providing us with food and shelter."Farah I will be stepping out for a bit can you help me with the dishes," Aunt said from the kitchen."Okay Aunt," I answered back, packing the plates in front of me and took them to the kitchen. Since today is a work-free day, washing the dishes won't be a problem.After I'm done with the dishes, I took Jawad's laptop and search for some movies finding none.What's the use of buying the laptop when he's not going to use it.I connect my phone's internet with the laptop searching for Frozen 2. I downloaded it immediately. **My mind is occupied with what I'm watching I didn't even notice someone sitting beside me. My eyes widen in surprise."When did you come back?" I asked him."You were busy with your movie how would you know the time I c

    F A R A H"Mnmp... I can't breathe Jawad." I said trying to pull myself out of his embrace."Oh sorry," he said pulling back."You love me huh?" I asked. He nods his head in return."Then what did I hear you saying on the phone." I folded my arms."Oh come on Farah, don't be clueless it's all for show." He stated as if it's nothing big. Realizing I didn't bulge by his words he sighs."I'm really serious it was all planned by me and Aunt to make you confess your love for me." He blurted out.Wait Did I just hear him said, Aunt?Reaching for my hands, he took them in his and watched me with an expression that I knew well."Look, Farah, I can't sit by and watch my wife not taking our relationship serious, so I had to do something." "So you act as if you're leaving me for someone just to hear me say the word. I take what I said back." I pouted looking down."It's too late dearest because I already know that you love me." He whispered pulling me in. I didn't try to hide away my blush eve

    F A R A H Two months later"Mrs. Farah, here is the list of our latest product," Precious said politely placing the documents on my desk."Thank you, when I'm done I will let you know," I said giving her a smile."Okay, Ma." She bowed a little and left.These past two months had been a blessing to me and I must say Alhamdulillah. I've been moved from the secretary position, I'm now the team leader of the department. I received a lot of love from Jawad and the family. Thinking about Jawad made a smile out of lips, he became a part of my life, I don't think I will be able to endure being apart from him. He's someone I can't leave without.Leaving my office, I knocked on his office door."Come in." I heard his deep voice said. Gosh, that voice."Hey wifey, missing me already." He said with a wink the moment he spots me entering his office."Yeah, I miss you so so much," I said flatly copying his action. There is no need for being shy, we've become one already.He left his seat and came

She will forever be grateful to Allah for blessing her with the two lovely sons. Suddenly, a plate was placed in front of her. she let out another smile seeing her husband, the father of her kids. A smile on his face too."Amir and Siddiq" she called the boys. Upon hearing their Mom's voice, they stopped playing running towards where their parent are seated."Yes Mom," Amir said. Siddiq's voice which isn't that clear mimics his brother's voice. Siddiq was named after Papa. He reaches for the plate of fruits."No Siddiq, your hands are dirty. wash your hands first, then I'll give you your favorite fruits" the boy's face lit up. She pecked both of

    Y A S M I NToday marked one week since our arrival and I must say mom was trying her best in taking care of Marwan and Amir. Sis Farah visited us too. She was surprised and also happy. Amir and Zara got along so well, they acted as if they knew each other so well. A smile made it way out of my face seeing Amir and Zara jumping around in the living room, As Zara refused to follow her mom back home saying she wants to stay with her grandma, and I know it's because of Amir."Good morning wifey," Marwan said hugging me from behind. I pushed him a little, my eyes scanning the surrounding. "Don't forget that you're in your in-law's house," I whispered enough for him to hear."And so, besides you didn't mind yesterday when we-" I shut him up by covering his mouth with my palms."Ever since we came you've become naughty just like Amir." his lips twitch up. "I'll be naughty just for you, when is your sister coming?" he asked which made me remember we both decided to go out for dinner today.

A hand touch my shoulder."Shall we" "Yes" I said letting out a sharp breathe.The drive to the airport was not so quite, as Amir couldn't stay calm, even the the a month of toys I gave him but the boy was still jumping up and down, he's growing up being stubborn nowadays."Can we cope with Amir like this" I whispered to Marwan, who was seated at the front. "Of course we can, he's now a big boy right Amir?" he turned his face and glanced at Amir, who was busy playing with the drivers seat pocket, hearing his father's voice his head snapped towards him, stopping at was he was doing."Don't worry Yasmin, it's nothing to worry about, beside I'll be with him too" As if he's saying the truth. when he start his work, he wouldn't even remember Amir nor me but I hope this little vacation will at least get him closer to him.

    Y A S M I N"I almost forgot, I'm here to tell you something," he said sitting on the empty space beside me."Okay, then I'm all ears""Here," he said handing me an envelope. I stared at the white envelope in confusion."What's inside?""Open it and see for yourself" I tore the lid."Tickets?" I said taking out the tickets."Yeah, it's for us, we're going on a vacation," he stated tight-lipped."To my hometown?" I access the ticket, not believing my eyes. Marwan taking me on a vacation and that to my hometown. Before I could realize it, I find myself lunging my arms around Marwan's neck."Ya Allah, I'm so happy thank you so much" I grinned, he encircled his arms around me too, tightening his hold, as if he's afraid I will disappear. "I thought that it will be best to spend some time together with Amir, and I think why not go to your hometown. I know you're missing your family." "How sweet of you" he pulled apart, cupping my face with his palms. "You know, I will do whatever that wil

    Y A S M I NFriday AfternoonI was curled up in bed with Amir beside me, the boy had been sick since yesterday. I'm still on rest as per what Marwan told my boss, I am to rest for the whole week. Just the thought of staying indoors throughout the week without going to work excites me. Marwan is already at work, me and Amir being the only ones at home. I place my palms on his forehead and I'm glad his fever went down a bit. I've come to a decision that he will not go to school, we will spend the week together. Seeing it's almost time for Zuhr prayers, I pulled the duvet more to his body, getting out of the bed I went straight to the bathroom and did my wudhu and that reminded me of that night, the night we did our first kiss. The image is still clear in my head, that night is a special one for me. I prayed Zuhr Namaz praying to Allah to protect my family more and bless my marriage life. Getting married is not something I planned but now I realised that is what Allah planned.By the ti

"Should I call.?" he asked again. I hummed in return. I heard the sound of the door closing, which means Marwan left.**I cuddled up in bed too lazy to lift my body downstairs, my only movement is when I had to pray, after then I went back to bed again but not sleeping rather reading some hadith I downloaded on my phone. The phone suddenly rang, a smile appears on my lips seeing the person calling me."Assalamu Alaikum. " I started in my most calm voice."Wa Alaikum salam, are you still in bed?" he inquired.
