Wahid has been in Jayda Rabia for three days now and true to his initial assumption he would not be able to rest even for a second. Looking at all the legal documents in his possession, he didn’t know where to start from.

The copies of the original wills, affidavits, and witness signed documents felt as heavy as wet clay soil in his hand. Wahid was Humeyra’s legal advisors and head of legal dealings in all of her ventures.

The call he had declined in the presence of Farhana was from one of his junior advocates who handled legal issues that had no major impact. What he had in his hands, however, felt like a time bomb that would cause havoc once it fell in the wrong hands.

He momentarily ignored the papers lying on his desk and went to stand by the widow. Looking outside the transparent glass of the window, he watched the rain fall gently from the heavens greeting the earth that welcomed its cooling effect.

Debris of rocks scattered everywhere as dust filled the once pure air and polluted it.Near the humongous window, laid a man with no signs of breathing. Blood flowed out of the open wound at the back of his head. His once debonair crispy suit was now half torn. The parts that were not torn were full of dirt .If one could get closer , one could smell charred clothes from the still body on the cold floor.The surprising and weird thing about the whole situation, however,was that the door was still intact. A few minutes passed when peace and an eerie silence fell over the ruined room.Heavy footsteps could be heard coming towards the room. From the sound emitted by the steps, one could easily deduce that the people approaching were many.Soon, military boots approached the door which was still intact. The w

Do not fret. We all are a family. Feel at home, “come Bilal’s voice. He liked making jokes the most but his jokes were not always amusing.Hamdan, Wahid and Umar sent him a warning look simultaneously. Hamdan then looked at his wife who didn’t respond.

  • HER SECRETS, HIS LOVE   When Hearts Soften

    The Ramadan effect finally set in. Every empty stomach remembered the less privileged and gave more either in terms of money or food staffs. Fasting was compulsory for every individual who had taken an oath that they believe in one and only One God, Allah and that Muhammad is His messenger provided that the said individual has reached the age of puberty.The fasting period entailed half of the day running from dawn to dusk. It reminded those that always had whatever they wanted and even wasted food that there were others who had almost no food for the whole day or those who survived on one meal a day.Every one's heart was softened during this time. No one was born evil. The only difference was that other people could easily be tempted while others had a good self control. Such was the case with every individual.The residents of Umar'smansionwoke up and continued with new routines specific to the holy

    Juweyriya looked up at the handsome man sitting across her. It was the first time anyone had cared enough to ask about her feelings regarding Hamdan’s marriage. Hafsa who had been feeding her all sort of false information all this time, didn’t bother to ask how she felt. She, in fact was selfish enough to invite her to her home, just to create a rift between the couple who were very much in love.She neither took her son’s discomfort in her consideration nor did she care about her feelings. She made sure that juweyriya was at their mansion as always. Although Hafsa was not completely bad, she was selfish most of the time and didn’t put others into considerations.This was her major flaw. She always thought about her comfort before others. She didn’t care if in the process someone else was uncomfortable or hurt even if the person was her son. Juweyriya felt genuine concern from Wahid’s questio

Looking at his wristwatch, a frown etched on his face. It had been three hours since he brought her here. Why wasnt there any news yet?Was she perhaps in danger? Did something go wrong? His mind was filled with all sorts of negative thoughts. It would be his fault if anything happens to her. His guilty conscience won't let him have peace."Ya Allah. Please, help her deliver safely.
