Kareem's POV
"Kareem I'm sorry, I didn't mean for all this to happen " Safeenah beg as soon as she was treated finished by the doctor
I said nothing nor do I replied her,my mind just keep flashing back to what Maryam said earlier
"do you think I did this? Do you?! Yes Kareem! I might be angry,nervous,scared of loosing you to someone else but to try to hurt her? Do you think I'll really do it? Is this how far your trust in me goes?"
"Fine! If that's what you want to believe then so be it,I won't beg you Kareem nor her. You two can go to hell for all I care!"
That look! Shit! What have I done again? I should have known Maryam, she wouldn't do something as drastic as that. I should have known the look if she's saying the truth....but Safeenah can't lie to me too can she?
"Kareem?" She called out my name
"Did you lie to me?" I asked the same question that was running on my head
"What?......No! I....I can't lie to you... She...she did

I'm sorry Safiya for misjudging your daughter in-law at first,judging by your son action,it is very clear that she really is a decent woman""Yes.....,but Kareem how sure were you that your wife was innocent? " A lady askedKareem smiled as he take a look at me before he started speaking "well,it all started when I came back from work some weeks ago,I met both my wife and her in the kitchen but what surprised me most was that Safeenah's hand was covered in blood. She claimed that my wife hurt her and that was the biggest mist

She came out and the moment her face came in contact with us most especially my husband, you could see the hatred clearly written on her faceI told Kareem about what she told me few weeks ago and Kareem was so surprised but we decide to confront her and hear the truth from her today, to know the reason why she hate my husband so much"Look who we have here" she mockingly said"The beast and the queen of the beast" she smirkIt is clearly seen on her face that she didn't regret all her actions"What has come over you Safeenah? Why are you like this? You aren't like this before " Kareem said. His voice shows that he's hurt and also disappointed in her at the same time"Are you seriously asking me? Do you really want to know?

I really can't believe I'm back to Nigeria. Mansur thought as he take a look around for a moment. "Now is the time to mend the wrong deeds of the past Mansur" he told himself with a small sighMansur has been keeping a very deep secret from someone dear to him. He can't cope with the way everything was going on,he has to correct his mistakes. The mistakes he once started without bothering to end. The mistake he thought he will be free from, not knowing that it will only cause hatred between the woman he loved and his friend. He really needs to let Kareem knows about the truth and then he will make sure to find his love and make her hisMansur was about to take a step away from where he was standing when he recalled that he has been a big jerk to Maryam,when he left that very day believing that he was suppose to be angry, later on wards he realised that his heart still belongs to the one and only girl Safeenah. Of all people he was the only person who knew that Safeen
"What are you doing here?" Khalid asked with a glare immediately Mansur barge into the house. Even Kareemah was surprised and so was Mufeedah too"Khalid I'm sorry" he begged not breaking the eye contact with him. He knows he has wrong them,even though it was Kareem he wronged,he couldn't still deny the fact that Khalid was also affected too,they were all friends right from their kids and he ruined everything. Inwardly, Mansur just couldn't stop blaming himself"Just tell me exactly what you're doing here Mansur " Khalid inquired again"I'm here to confess""What confession do you intend to make?" Khalid asked. And in the next seconds he wide out his face in shock "wait a minute....Were you?....were you the one who kidnapped Maryam?""What?! No!...no I wouldn't do something as terrible as that" he replied immediately defending himself"Well you did worse than that years ago" Khalid replied sarcastically"So what then are you here for?
"Why? Why are you lying? Why are you trying to cover up your crimes? I...I saw you...I saw you with my two eyes. It was you Kareem!" Safeenah uttered with shivering voice"Did you see my face?.. Answer me finah, Did you?" Kareem asked waiting patiently for her response"No I didn't " she replied back shaking her head"So how sure were you that I was the one who killed your sister?""Your car. I saw the plate number and when we track it, we find out that it was your car""You're mistaken. I wasn't driving but Mansur was""Mansur took the car to do something urgent that very day. Though I never wanted to give him the car coz even though I was the owner, I never drive. I have a driver who drove me from school to home. We scope my driver that day and that was how he was able to take the car out. When we learnt that he hit your sister,I got furious and scared at the same time. My parent find out and got angry so much,I told him or in fact I begged him
Kareem turned slowly, expecting to see his wife lying lifelessly on the floor but what happened was the opposite, it wasn't Maryam on the floor but Safeenah,Safeenah lied down with blood hovering all of her body"SAFEENAH!!!! " Kareem screamed as he ran fastly towards where she was lying down,Mansur and the rest also did the same thing while Maryam stood there like a robot,she couldn't move her hand nor her legs "did she just take the bullet for me? Did she just saved me?" Maryam thought"Now Khalid! We need to take her to the hospital, she's still breathing, now!" Kareem said to them,he saw Mansur looking panic too. He wanted to punch him,talk to him,ask him so many questions but now isn't the right time for thatHe stood up and move closer to his wife "are you OK?""Kareem she..she saved me,she did save me" she panicky said"I know""Will she be fine? Nothing must happen to her Kareem""Nothing will happen to her,she's a strong girl,believ
