Yushraf's POV
After pushing me hard inside, the door closed behind me. I swallowed hard, not forgetting the dirty slap I received earlier.
When I alighted the van and was taken straight to the interrogating room. There, different questions were thrown at me.
The sound of the locks clicking shut behind me, loud. That was one heavy chunk of metal and I heard the bolts slide on the inside. For a fact, I knew I could never open that door even if I spend the rest of my life, trying, unless they open it themselves.
No one looked back after locking it behind me. I was just another breathing corpse in there.
I turned, eyes rolling over the concrete walls looking from the corner of the cell. It was just a box for a human yet there were other people inside too. There wasn't anything else, except for the bunk. The bars were really thick, and I
Deejah's POV It had been three days, since I made dad call on detectives to arrest that man. I didn't even know his name, though the sister had mentioned his name, but I couldn't remember what it was.It was not like I even cared to know actually.I should be happy that I got my revenge in a better way, but no, I couldn't actually pinpoint my exact feeling.I wanted to talk to dad about it. He should let him go, because he had had enough of the suffering. After all, he was arrested to face hard labor and for the past three days, I had been already regretting the action dad took. It wasn't his fault entirely. I should also be blamed for taking the issue too seriously from the beginning.I hated that sister of his more, because had it not been for her, everything would have been okay and that guy wouldn't have slapped me.
Yushraf's POV What is the essence of life, when you don't have anybody in this world to save you from what you're going through!The only person I had was Reedah and I didn't even know how she was doing. I really felt bad for leaving her in such a terrible state of mind on that fateful day, but I couldn't do anything to stop it from happening.I wished l was able to console her and assure her everything would be okay, but no, I failed to do so. She had not even visited me since the day I was imprisoned. Maybe they did not allow her or worse, something bad happened to her.If anything happened to my sister I would never forgive that stupid girl for the rest of my life. I promised to make her regret ever knowing me."Mubarak, I am afraid something has happened to my sister that why she hasn't come here to check on me." I voiced, conce
Deejah's POV"Good morning, dad." I greeted."Good morning. How is my princess doing?" He asked, enthusiastically"I'm doing good, just missing mum a little, but she will be back tomorrow, by God's will." She smiled."Yeah, she will. I really miss her so much too." He voiced. "So come, let's take our breakfast. By tomorrow, she will be joining us here too, so stop worrying, my dear.""Yes, dad. I want to even discuss something with you. Maybe after breakfast we can discuss it." She suggested."Okay. Whatever it is, let's just eat first, my princess and tell me whatever is bothering you.""Yes, dad."So we both ate our breakfast silently. I had never felt so nervous trying to talk to my dad before, but today I felt suffocated. I didn't even know how to start the conversation about that guy
Yushraf's POV"Hey! Wake up, it's time for prayer. Adhaan has already been said." I heard Mubarak say to me, then followed a few tap on my shoulder.I opened my eyes and stood up immediately, then followed them to the masjid to pray fajr.When we returned to the cell, I could not keep my mind off what Mubarak had told me last night. It was really unfortunate to be accused of what one knows absolutely nothing about, especially of attempted murder. But that was life - unpredictable. Always changing and showing us new things, from different perspectives.I was still lost in thought about how Mubarak managed to hide his feeling without been discovered in thought, emotions, guilt or any form of regret on his face. Indeed he was really trying, but I knew it did bother him, especially being accused wrongly of attempted murder by the people he thought he could t
Deejah's POV"This guy does not even have manners to thank you for bailing him out" Mina said, while removing her veil and sitting down on sofa. Anger, dripping from her voice.We had just returned from the prison, after bailing Yushraf out.I pretended not to hear what she said, for she was already starting to irritate me with her annoying face."Mina, you must be surely out of your mind! Are you still expecting him to thank me, after what I did to him?""Yes, of course he deserves all he went through. Why will he, for any reason slap you, for the sake of his sister? If really I were in your shoes, I would have left him there for a month to learn his lesson. After all, we are rich enough to control the police. You know how they are always looking for a bribe and if you're loaded, you are free to control them, remember?" She asked, r
