Mehr answered the phone call without wasting a second as soon as Mashkur's name pop up on her phone screen. She's been waiting for his call ever since she left Kydah and Amdaad in their room. She wanted to call but for some unknown reasons, she didn't.
"Hello beautiful," his husky yet charming voice greeted immediately making her feel all giddy with love and happiness which she hasn't felt in a while.
"Hi handsome, I missed you so much." she couldn't stop herself from saying that since its the truth and she won't just let it eat her whole. Kydah is already taking a hot long bath. That's sorted, she can bring back her relationship back to life.
"Nope, don't even start your I miss you. I missed you way much more than you think. Rozah had to seize my phone from me, cos I badly wanted to call you every second," he heave a long exhausting sigh.
Mehr smiled adorably like he was right in front of her before sayin
They silently stroll to Mashkur's car with Mehr thinking about what he has for her. For all she knows is, she will not accept any gift from him and she already told him. Those she accepted was because he sent them, he didn't bring it himself instead, he'll send Ferozah with it.They stopped right next to his car where he opened the back door for her. Peeping inside the car, Mehr gasped.A huge cake sat there with her picture- which was unexpected. There are so many candles in a circle around the cake- maybe eighteen. Then two birthday caps by the side. Happy Birthday My Love was written boldly on the cake. The cake looks like red velvet.Her favorite cake.Mehr has totally forgotten about her birthday which was tomorrow. With Kydah's tension and marriage all on their heads, they've all forgotten. She smiled, which looks like it will tear her cheeks any moment. And then the most expected of all- waterworks.
Zoya!Mehr whispered the name underneath her breath with so much hatred. She has never seen the girl but heard a lot about her from Ferozah. Even then, she hated her and now, the hatred is on another level. She is their cousin or something like that which Mehr didn't pay any attention to how they are related.Mehr was thinking so hard which makes Mashkur to start thinking whether she knew about their past or not. But whatever it is, he's ready to clear everything."Can we go for a ride?" he asked a perplexed Mehr who looked deep in her own world of thoughts and hatred."Uhm, sure. Lemme just give this to Mallam Audu. I'll collect it when we're back," she forced a smile then walk to Mallam Audu's room and knocked. She gave him cake before settling down in Mashkur's car.Her mind was flying every where. Thinking about the possibilities and impossibilities. She hates to think that they had a
She couldn't say that the birthday was not the best but also it's not the perfect. First, her boyfriend showed up and gave her her early birthday cake and a very beautiful gift. She cried because of happiness but when he asked her, she said it was because the ring- it's beautiful."God sweetcheeks, you're crying again," Mashkur mumbled with a frown. He doesn't like those tears even if its for happiness but tears can be his weakness also."I can't help it," she sobbed. Seriously? Mashkur thought with a chuckle."Am I making you that happy?" he wiggled his brows at her with a goofy grin on his face."Nope." she pursed her lips even though she has hot tears on cheeks. "The ring is just so beautiful that I can't help it." she doesn't want to admit it but deep down he knows so he played along."The ring is finer than me?" he mocked face of horror and feig
Mehr was so lost in her thoughts to even notice that Afnaan and her squad members were talking about her birthday and gifts. They were teasing her but she'll just smile cos her mind wasn't there at all so Afnaan nudged her."Come with me," Afnaan ordered before walking out of the cafeteria to the long school hallway. In slow strides waiting for Mehr to catch up with her but Mehr was still walking slowly like something was holding her with every step she took."What's wrong chips?" she asked again but Mehr was just looking at the space behind Afnaan as if something will come out from the hallway."Tell me Mehr!" Afnaan said sternly and knowing Afnaan, when she call Mehr by her name, then things must be serious."Yes," she uttered stammering. She look so lost and that made Afnaan's heart arche."You can tell me what's wrong," Afnaan drag her to an empty class in the hallway. The hallway was
When Mehr told Mashkur about Khaliq and what happened before he left, which is already two weeks now. He was so mad, jealous and possessive. He wanted to injure Khaliq, hit him squarely on his jaw and nose. Then he gets mad at her for hiding all these from him till when he get back."So you wouldn't have told me this if not because Afnaan has pressured you and the Khaliq himself messaged you? Why will you hide this from me and your family? You know you can't do anything to him, he'll just escape and he did!" he rambled on, getting madder with each word.Mehr cowardly stayed quite knowing that whatever he saying was true. Nothing he said was a lie and she was not ready to admit her mistake nor will she tell him he's right.She's damn stubborn."I'm sorry!" that was what she kept mumbling, not even saying it loudly. She was also angry at him.
Finishing her third paper which was geography, Mehr hurriedly sauntered into Mallam Audu's car telling him to hurry up and take her home, which he did with just a nod. Something must be serious since Mehr herself was impatient, for she isn't someone who's impatient, but Kydah.They drove back silently to the Maliks' Mansion in silence, which was so unlike Mehr to Mallam Audu. But instead of him to talk or start a conversation, he kept quite. Sometimes, people don't want to be probed or disturbed in situations like this and Mehr will also be part of them.Parking inside the Mansion, Mehr picked her backpack and ran into the house, straight to their room, jot even telling Maa that she's back. Kydah was in the room when she rushed in, but she didn't say anything but look at her like she's a mad person. She was removing her socks and shoe in a hurry before jumping into the bathroom, Kydah could swore that she didn't say the du'a for entering toilet.Kydah knew what
Today is Mehr's graduation. They've finished their exams a month ago and they're celebrating it today at their school with the rest of the students.Mehr was dressed in a black pants and white shirt, which was the colour code for the graduation- black and white. She looked at the mirror, placing back the huge black graduation gown and the cap.Afnaan was wearing a palazzo pants, which was in black and white material then a white shirt on top. She hid some p-caps she did for her squad members in her bag so that they could use it during the after party that the school organized.Afnaan who was sitting on the bed waiting for her whilst taking selfies and videos, she was very impatient. She has invited her crush and he said he'll be there, she doesn't want her makeup to get smudged before she reach there so she on the fan."Mehr, be fast!" Afnaan whined for the umpteenth time. She can't wait to be there and se
The whole week was so exhausting to Mehr. She couldn't sit down for an hour, she'd be called from Maa or Kydah's friends and it was annoying her. She doesn't even have time to talk to Mashkur talk less of seeing him, which was more than annoying. Its not like she doesn't want to help, but its getting too much.So now, she locked the door to Paa's living room with Afnaan by her side. Mehr was talking to Mashkur for more than an hour, whilst Afnaan was bored out if her mind. She wants to do something fun but her best friend has other plans, so she doesn't have a choice that sitting their and check her social media accounts.Getting more and more bored after the next thirty minutes, she collect the phone from Mehr wanting to ask Mashkur t9 give them some time together also and Mehr just laughed at her."Ya Mashkur, your girlfriend's best friend needs her asap, so do me a favour and give us some time together," She grinned at Mehr, who scowled back."My girlf
After the celebration -the naming ceremony of Fadila, Mashkur and Mehr decide to take a little trip to Goa, India to explore. They were there for a week because they had to come back as Mashkur needed to be in the office and Farid will go back to school whilst Mehr will go back to work also."Babe, stop worrying so much. He'll do just good. It's just that this is his first year and you know it'll be tough, worry not!" Mashkur comforted."I know but I don't like how he's whining about it. Don't you think something is happening in the school?" She was Still worried and he could tell."Then to put all your worries aside, let's go to the school tomorrow and see if something is happening, happy?" He asked."Very!" She grinned before leaning her head on his should as he was holding Fadila to his chest and Farid wouldn't leave the passenger sit, so he's strapped with a seatbelt.The dreaded Monday came before they could blink their eyes. Mehr woke up earl

Five Years Later!Mehr was roaming around the house since 6:00am and hasn't sat down ever since then. Today is a big day and she found out she could be pregnant again but didn't say anything, she'll wait for the day to finish and they'd tackle with that later with her husband. She was kind of elated and extremely nervous for the day ahead.After finishing the breakfast which was Irish potatoes, scrambled eggs, plantain and sausage, she sat down on the high kitchen chair as she look around and the kitchen, wanting to see something she could fix but found none.This is a new Mehr who would never pass a dirty place without coming back and cleaning it. Yeah, there is a maid but the woman doesn't do much as Mehr just wants everything to be burnishing around her house. She was so into her thoughts that she didn't notice the house help walking in."Good morning maman Farid," the woman in her mid
Mehr was looking at herself on the full length mirror in the bathroom, seeing how she filled up everywhere. Her pregnancy makes her sleepy, tired, slothful, and craving her husband's attention so much. And now, her chest is fuller, her behind, her hips widened.Just seven months pregnant but she's huge. She thank God that her face was still as it is, no huge nose or puffy cheeks. But that didn't stop from feeling the insecure crawling every time she's with her husband." Don't! You look so sexy! I just can't take my eyes and hands off of you," he slowly walked to her from behind, at first she was startled as she didn't know when he came in.Sometimes, she'd feel like he is saying those things to make her feel better but the way his eyes talk for themselves as they stare at her with pure hunger, she knew she'll have to throw that insecurity out the window.He snaked her arms around her bare stomach and rest
They collected their result, Mashkur immediately opened it before they walk into the doctor's office as they were asked to do so. Seeing Mehr's bold name on top of the paper and the positive letters under, Mashkur twirled Mehr around getting people attention but as always, he didn't care.He kissed her cheek before dropping her down and she already knew the answer. He brought his phone and typed something before dragging her to the doctor's office who happens to be Dr. Hadi who beamed at the couple."Hello you two! I'm so happy to see you again under a different circumstances," they all chuckled at that before he asked them to sit down on the two chairs directly facing him.They exchanged pleasantries before he starts to talk about what she should do and wh
Mehr feel like she was floating. All her problems are solved and she was so happy and thankful to Allah. Everything is now falling into place and now, she just couldn't hold it but walk into the kitchen to bake whatever it is that'll come to her mind.She decide to bake some cookies as she was craving it. Okay, she really is craving a lot of things these days. Mashkur is up in his room getting ready for work. Having no lectures for today, public holiday, Mehr decide to laze around with her girlfriends -Afnaan, Ferozah, Makiyyah and Yamina.The rest of them are all in another school and they're not back so they'll have to enjoy their nights alone and she really miss them terribly. They always chat and call each other frequently and they even wanted to come when she had her miscarriage but she stopped them."Hey baby, what are you thinking of?" He kissed her cheek before wrapping his arm around her shoulder and pulling her closer to him."Nothing. But
They were all enjoying their day on the couch in the theater room upstairs. Mehr and Mashkur cuddled on one of the long couches in the room. Mashkur was holding the popcorn and Mehr has her arms around his waist as she was sleeping, tired of watching the movie but he was wide awake.She tend to do that these days. She'd sleep for about ten minutes, then wake up and then sleep back again. It was like she was having a hard time controlling herself so he rub his hands up and down her back so that she wouldn't wake up.After some minutes, she still awoke even after telling her that she should go back to sleep, she didn't. She took a handful of popcorn and stuff it in her mouth before doing the same to him.He laughed and start to tickle her till she was the one on the couch and he is standing on top of her."S-s-sorry, pl-eas--se," she begged before he stopped and lie done on top of her, careful with his weight.They stared at each other for awhi
Two months later, Mehr was coming out of her last class of the day which was biology. She was so tired and sleepy that she didn't even know what was happening around her. She called Mashkur to come and pick her up since she couldn't even drive herself from her home, the driver brought her. She just wants to laze around.Shortly, Mashkur came and packed the car then walked out, getting the -student around there- attention. He always gets that attention and mostly from females which Mehr hated with great passion.She immediately walk up to him so that they could immediately leave and the girls should stop looking at her husband. Upon reaching him, he wrapped his arms around her waist, giving her a quick kiss on the cheek before opening the door for her."Thanks," she grinned at him and he quickly give her a quick peck, making sure no one saw them."Mashkur!" She scolded, turning crimson.
Even after three days, Mehr is still giving Mashkur a cold shoulder. But he still didn't give up and her mother is even glaring at her every time she saw him trying to talk to her and she shun him away. She'd smile innocently at her mother and then avert her eyes.And about the culprit, they still didn't caught the person and are still trying. But then again, Ferozah already knew the culprit but she's trying to investigate everything and find clear evidence. She is working with Kydah, Amdaad and doctor Hadi. They have a suspect but didn't get reveal anything to anyone.Currently, Mehr is looking at the plain white wall in front of her as she think about her baby. The baby is no more! She can't believe someone will stoop so low to kill her unborn baby, who doesn't know anything about the world. She hates to think that the person is close to them and still not caught.Mashkur walked in with a basket of food which means she's eating homemade today. Probably from Am
