-------------------Los Angeles, California.
-----------------------------------Khalid's Condo, next morning, 10:00am.
Zarah
I stood patiently waiting for Khalid outside his condo after knocking on his door.
The poor guy was still sober after losing his job and of course he was feeling horrible now after losing his daughter. The cute little baby I saw back in Malaysia was killed in a bomb blast. Some people were honestly heartless and cruel. A lot of people were lost in the bomb blast and according to sir Khalid, the person's cause for doing this was all for revenge.
This was something Pa Alejo would do.
I spent sometime with him when he lost his job, when we both lost our jobs. He thought I was going to be able to help him get a creative business idea but we still had nothing. We hung out from time to time, he also helped me look for where I could

-------------- Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur.----------------------------Same day, 1:00pm." she still doesn't want to talk?" my voice shook as I stopped pacing outside the questioning room and stood to hear what the detective in charge of Najmah's kidnapping case had to say. " She still won't budge, we're going to use on force on her now" he answered and my blood began to boil as I looked through the glass window and my eyes met that of miss Hae Soo's minion.She knew something about Najmah and she didn't want to say anything. My daughter was only eight months old, she needed her mother by her side. Storming into the questioning room and beating her up till she spoke was going to help my anger subside. " Tell me where my daughter is" I snapped as I flung my hand with full force across her face. " Tell me where she is" I yelled my rage out and pushed her from the chair she was sitting to the floor and kicked her right in the stomach. Sh

Yes and I'm not at fault for not saying anything, I didn't know that the person who raised Zarah was ever going to work with the green viper and besides I promised her that I wasn't going to tell anyone about it" Mother answered as she collected Kimberly from Sophia's. We all sat round a table in Sophia and Ethan's patio, trying to enjoy the morning breeze and talking." She went through one hell of a life, to be honest, if I were in her shoes, I wouldn't want to involve myself in all these problems we're facing" Sophia commented as she munched a cookie. " Yeah, all I'll want is to be at peace" Ethan backed up his wife and I rolled my eyes at the both of them." That's a selfish desire" My a

----------------Los Angeles, California.------------------------------- Valentine's residence,11:30am.Sleep is a necessity in this life. I spent 18 hours and 5 minutes on an airplane and I didn't get to sleep properly. The bed in the room I was given by Sophia made everything right. I slept like a baby.I was on my period so I didn't have to make Salah. After taking my bath, brushing my teeth and getting cosy in my pyjamas, I threw myself on the small but comfy bed with cotton duvets and the purple velvet bed sheets made me not want to ever get out of that bed. Everything felt right. It was an amazing bed.I woke up fully refreshed by 11:00am, I took my bath, brushed my teeth, got dressed and called my family up to let them know I was doing fine.I called Khalifa up as well but he didn't answer, he was probably busy at work." Faryah, are you awake?" Mama Zainab followed her words with gentle knocks on the doo

Deep down honestly, I really wanted to pour my heart out to him, to all of them but I just didn't want to hurt Khalifa's feelings.He honestly deserved someone who was going to love him wholeheartedly and

--------------Central city east, Los Angeles, California.------------------------ 100 S Santa Fe Ave, 3:40pm." Thank you sir" I said as I hurriedly got down from the taxi and paid him his fee. I looked around the busy area and stood right in front of the address Najmah was kept, Tasha's diner. Why were they keeping her in a diner?. There were tall buildings all around, probably residential apartments.I pushed open the door to the diner after reciting Ayatul-Qursi and walked in with shaky legs and heard a chime. I was frightened to my core but I had to control myself if I wanted to get Najmah out of all this mess. This place was empty. There were chairs, tables and everything that made it a diner but there was no one around." Hello" There was no one to respond to me. I moved to around to see if I could find any clues or anything but I got nothing. Were they trying to trick me or something?.Najmah's loud cry resounded in

I wasn't exactly the person he wanted to see or even talk to in his life so why bother?. He opened the door and I scowled at the sight in front of me. I was once in his shoes." Why are you here?" He asked with a growl as I played with my hands in my pockets. " I came to check up on you" I tried my best to stay cool but all I could feel was pity for the guy. No wonder Faryah was sad that they didn't get to talk to properly. " so you came to mock me?"" Oh no, not at all. I just came to talk to you, man to man" he frowned and tried to slam the door at my face but I was quick to stop him. " Look. I know I am someone you don't want to ever talk to in your life but please hear me out. I really need to talk to you" He squashing me between the door and the wall.This was all
