Faisal drowned himself with work. He worked like he has never before. Each time he remembers Kalthum, something in him keeps shouting and yelling at him. You don't deserve her, that voice kept saying.
He banged his desk with his hand " Enough!" he shouted at no one in particular as he held his head. Why can't people see that he is right and she is wrong? Why can't they just understand that she is only playing with their minds. Faisal's breathing becomes rage. He need to stop having all this thought about her if not he is going to go crazy in his office, he thought.
Umm Rasheed doesn't even meet his eyes again. She treats him like a trash. Those loving eyes he usually see everyday has now turned to disappointment. He tried explaining himself to her but she was also like his brother, she took Kalthum's side. Everyone always take her side what about him? he thought, as he fling a file across the room.
Right now the only people that seems satisfied wi
Habib looked at Kalthum like she has two heads. " I don't get what you're trying to say kalthum "She heaved a sigh " this is why I find it hard to tell people the truth . I know it'll be hard to believe it but I promise, that's the truth "He just couldn't believe his ears. Here he has been having good thoughts about Basma and now hearing this new info about her is just unbelievable." Can you please tell me everything and don't try missing a point "She nodded " ok"Kalthum stared at habib as she began to tell him everything without missing anything. She even told him how she has been a pain in the neck to her and habib was left speechless. He blinked once, twice and even thrice!. This wasn't what he had expected to hear." are you trying to tell me that Basma did all this to you? And you didn't even tell me? "Kalthum nodded " yes but I don't care anymore. What she wanted all along has finally happened " she s
......Faisal sauntered downstairs needing a hot cup of coffee. He has been working for hours now in his room and sleep was starting to take over so in order to drive the sleep, he needed a cup of coffee. He walks to the kitchen where he saw Umm Rasheed and some other maids arranging the plates.He sat on a stool close to the refrigerator when he entered. Umm Rasheed gave him a once over then turn back to what she was doing. Lately that has been what is going on between Faisal and Umm Rasheed. She avoid him like a plague." I need a cup of coffee Nanny, please " he said trying to get her attention back.The other maids scrabbled out of the kitchen quickly leaving the two behind. Umm Rasheed didn't answer, instead she continued what she was doing.Faisal sighed " please Umm Rasheed talk to me"She drops the plate in her hand in anger which then made a loud sound " if you want coffee then get it y
.....Kalthum and Zainab's mouth was wide agape. They were flabbergasted. Jamil who did not understood any of what was happening just stood confused." who is the girlfriend? "Zainab came out of her shock. She dragged Kalthum to her back like a mother trying to protect her child. She then stood in front of Faisal,She stood tall facing Faisal with a hard look." Mr man, with due respect , I don't know if you're mad or crazy or if you hit your head on the wall which then made you forgot all that happened. Have you forgotten what you did to my best friend? " she held her waist looking up at him.Faisal raised a brow surprise that a small lady was talking to him like that." I'm not here for you miss"Jamil looked at the two in shock " are you two talking about Kalthum? " how come the big Faisal dantata is interested in the person he love ,he thought" Yaya ,please hold on a second
Aunty Suwayba rushed into the hospital with kalthum trailing behind her. They were both looking deshelved after hearing the news from Umm rasheed who called them.As they entered, they looked round the reception in hope to find a familiar face. They forgot to bring their phone because they were in haste to leave the house." Good evening ma, how can I help you? " the lady in the front desk asked as she saw how worried they were.Kalthum turns to her " My sister is here. She just got admitted few hours ago "" Alright can you tell me her name so I can check the book for her room number?"Kalthum exhaled " her name is Basma Uthman. She came with a older lady "The nurse eyes perked up in realization." yes I remember. Go to room 23,you'll find them there. It's a private room"Kalthum nodded " Thanks alot nurse" she went to meet her mother " Mom let's go"They hurriedly left to look for room 23.***" Doctor ,
......" Maryam? Which maryam? " Kalthum blinked her eyes confused" The same Maryam you know. The one working in the Dantata's house "Kalthum moved forward to hit him but luckily Faisal quickly dragged her back " You're lying, aunty Maryam will never do that to me. She will never. I know you're only trying to cover up for Basma "" Calm down kalthum. I think he is saying the truth " Faisal said to her.She looked at Bashir with teary eyes " but why would she do that to me? I've never done anything to her Faisal. Why? "Bashir stood from one foot to the other. He was already getting uncomfortable " I don't really know why she wanted that to happen. She only brought business for me and since I was in need of money I couldn't decline it "Kalthum looked at him in disgust " aren't you ashamed of yourself? "" Look, I said I was sorry"Kalthum glared at him " Who is Maryam to you? "
.....Faisal walked into the kitchen with the intention of telling umm rasheed about everything that has happened. He met her as usual preparing lunch. He decided not to go to work today due to the fact that he needed to make an end to maryam's games but first he needed to explain everything to Umm Rasheed." Nanny" he calledNanny turned around to look at Faisal " yes dear? " she smiled. Umm rasheed is now beginning to forgive Faisal since he finally realized his mistakes and is now trying to make efforts to work things out with Kalthum." I've something important to tell you " he told her then sat on a stool. Nanny dropped whatever she was doing as she saw that he was serious. She also came to join him. She too sat on a stool facing him. Nanny told the maids to excuse them. Maryam was also among the maids." Maryam dear, please help me take that flask to Hajiya Basira's room. She requested for you "
Basma sobbed quietly on the hospital bed. She has been doing that alot since she landed in the hospital. Her past bad behaviour hunts her alot anytime she think about it . Her mind isn't at rest anytime she remember all she have done and most especially what she did to her own blood sister, Kalthum.KalthumBasma shook her head sadly as her sister's name passed through her lips. Her loving sister, she thought. How she wish she hasn't done all those things to kalthum, how she wish she can reverse time just to correct all her bad deeds. No-one will want a disgrace like her. No one will want someone like her in their life after they know what she has done.Basma wants to correct everything. She wish everything was easy but it isn't. Finally, she will be heading home today and she is scared of how Kalthum will face her. The last time they had an argument, it didn't end well. Kalthum refuses to believe that she have changed.She sniff
.....Basma quickly got up " I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have entered your room like this "Kalthum waved it off " you're inside already. It's not a bother. So what are you doing here? "Basma rubbed her neck slightly " I came to have a word with you"" With me? " Kalthum raised a brow" Yes with you. Please listen to me "Kalthum heaved a sigh then told her to sit " so what do you want to talk about? "" About us"" Look Basma you don't have to do this. I've already forgiven you so what else"" I need to talk to someone and that person is you Kalthum. I need to take things off my chest "Kalthum told her to go ahead" It all started when I was in ss2. I met this group of friends that I wish I never met before. I was transferred from my former hostel to this new hostel where I came encountered with this clique. They were very popular back then. They were four in numbers, Aisha
TWO YEARS LATER." I CONGRATULATE Y'ALL ONCE AGAIN." the VP congratulated. He waved at them as he left the stage.There faces broke into a big smile. They were very happy, happy to be called a graduate. They've all waited for this wonderful and bliss day.Kalthum hugged her sister like her life depends on it. She couldn't stop the wide smile on her face. She was just too happy for both of them." I'm so happy ya Basma!Finally we're now graduates! I can't believe it! "Basma giggled " I can't believe it too kalthum. Mom would be so proud of us "Basma should have graduated since last upper year but things didn't go as planned because that was the year she used to work at the Dantata's house, it wasn't possible. Last year, she thought she would be graduating after she finally resumed school,only to be shocked with a carryover.Since Basma had a carry over in one of her core course last year, so she needed to add another
Habib pushed the door open then entered. He was disappointed with himself.At that moment, Faisal was pressing his phone. He got startled with the sudden entrance. He gave his brother a confused look." why did you bang my door like that? "Habib gave him an apologetic look " sorry about that " he went to join his brother " I'm highly disappointed in myself. I just can't believe that I'm finding it hard to just confess my feelings for her. Could it be because I've been out of the game for a very long time? " he rants out to his brother.A surprised Faisal raised a brow" Finally, you now admit that you are into someone. I knew it. "Habib groaned " I just don't know why I can't muster the courage to tell her the truth. She doesn't even know my true identity "" are you trying to tell me that this lady in question is someone I know?" Faisal asked with a smirk" you better not start with me. I'm not in the mood for your teases right
" Kalthum! give it to me! " Basma yelled with her arms on her waist . She looks like a mother scolding her child."

I can't believe you're my sister " she sat down on the chairKalthum also went to join her on the two sitter " so tell me if not I'll read your chats "She wiggled her brows.Basma shook her head " why are you my sister for Allah's sake? "Kalthum laughed " you still love me no matter what "The two sisters have grown to love each other like never before. Truth to her words, Basma changed and she is now someone who is very understanding. She is now the type of sister Kalthum have always wished to have and their love for each other keeps on growing day by day.Aunty Suwayba their mother went out to get something,
