Chapter 17

Yusuf

Something did not feel right. He had a gut feeling that something bad was going to happen. Since the moment he left home, he was feeling like something was not right, but he shook it off and drove off. 

Zainab was in need of assistance; she was his childhood friend but everything changed since the last three years. He dated her for six months before he broke up with her and realised that she was like a younger sister. He wished he had realised that sooner.

Even his parents wanted them to marry each other except his granny. Her parents too were wealthy but not like them. Her parents were divorced when she was still little but her father still loved her mother; he could always see it clearly in his eyes when he talked about how amazing she was his wife.

Reaching outside her apartment, he knocked on her door. "Zainbee, open the door. I'm outside," he called her

    Chapter 18YusufHe was sitting in the library when his phone rang."Hello, Yusluv," Zainab's voice slurred out."I'm busy now," he said agitatedly, ready to hang up before she interrupted him."Wait, what happened?" She asked worriedly."I'm alright. How is your husband? My regards to him," he said tiredly."Yusuf, you know that you can tell me anything. We are always each other's rocks.""OK. Later, please. I'm coming to your apartment," he hung up, sighed, then pinched his nose bridge in frustration.He rested his head on his hands. He couldn't even think without her. The CCTV cameras didn't show anything-everything was blurred. The person behind it knew him very well.He sighed and got to his room to freshen up and got some sleep.***

NOW TO THE CHAPTERSophiaI was praying to Allah because he was all Hearer and Seer. This pain was too much for me, being kidnapped twice! One by a maniac, obsessed Ex and now by this man."Ya Allah save me, let me be free. He's going to truly break me this time. Ya Allah, you were the one who saved and protected prophet Yunus inside the fish. Please hear my cries. Ya Allah, guide, protect and pardon all my sins." I was visibly shaking with fear of the unknown."Bring her out," a voice boomed out.Some men came inside and held my hand. I thrashed around "Please save me, don't take me to..." My words were cut off by a slap."Say one more word there and then I will be

I meant I couldn't walk properly. It was painful, pleasurable and was enjoyable.It was bitter sweet.He carried me to the bathroom and bathed for me like a baby.We cuddled and I slept like I'd never, waking up from my long nap, I felt a gentle hand touching me, urging me to wake up. I woke up and saw it was Yusuf; waking me to eat .He was so handsome and sexy.All mine.I was shy with all the scars on my body but he kissed all and told me I was beautiful and didn't change his love for me.It mended my soul and h

I couldn't believe I was having a little life in me."What should we name him or her?" I raised my brow."Any name you like or want"he said curtly, giving short answers. I was feeling waves of anger building up in me waiting to be released."What of abdullahi or amatullah?" I asked then he hummed in response.&

I was losing myself to the abyss of darkness, I was wallowing to the darkest part of me.But where you now?, I whispered to no one as I stared at the gloomy sky which matched my feelings.It had been 2months since he

    BK 2 : Epilogue8 months later.My life had taken a roller-coaster-like movie from one scene to another but alhamdulillah through the journey of my life, I'd learnt, experienced and been more mature. I was able to stand firm with my beliefs on the Creator of the creators, the King of kings.Allah tested us to know who would stay and believe and He said: "Verily after every difficulty is ease". No matter the challenges or situations we found ourselves in, know that Allah would make the way.Who could believe with everything I'd passed through or with everything that had happened I would still be happy in the end But alhamdulillah I was very grateful to the Almighty for giving me patience and steadfastness to pass through it.It was said in a hadith that, 'the earth is a prison for the believers and paradise for the unbelievers'.

    BK 2 chapter 28Life was fairing, everything had been going smoothly with Allah's will. Abdullahi was doing okay with his father during weekends. We went to Khaleed's wedding ; Allah blessed him with a niqobii and a hafizoh. I was extremely happy for him. We were expecting our little buds - Rodiyah and Mor'diyyah. The scan I did showed that I was having twins. I couldn't be happier. We'd been preparing because at any moment the babies would arrive in this world."Mom, wheeen arrre my sissssters coooming out?" Abdullah asked, poking my bump."I do not know baby but they are coming soon" I prolonged the 'soon', "you'll soon see and carry them" I said rubbing my stomach tenderly."S, how are you" Abdulrahman asked, walking toward me."I'm fine but my back is aching me" I whined softly while he chuckled."Daddy" Abdullah called him.

    BK 2 chapter 27"Who knocks by this time of the day" Abdulrahman grumbled, tossing on the bed."Just go back to sleep, I'll go check" I smiled sweetly at him while I was feeling mad at the person who was knocking.Maryam!, I yelled in my head because she would be the only one to knock by 3:00 am. She might have been trying my number. I'd switched it off because I didn't want any disturbance. I needed my perfect sleep.The rain was pouring vigorously, the cool breeze of the rain was entering through the opened window."No, you wait here" he groaned, taking his jalabiya. I went out without waiting for him.Wallahi, I'm going to deal with Maryam today, I thought angrily. I went to the kitchen to take a spatula to hit her head with it.Maryam, Maryam Maryam!, I chanted in my head.

I wanted to move my hand to point but my hand was not working also. I was feeling lightheaded, my breathing was coming out in a short pant. The world was spinning aroundNot again, I thought.Today was going smoothly, I was enjoying today outside with my husband but I felt like puking.I didn't know how it happened but I was puking all the content in my stomach while Abdulrahman was patting my back softly.

    BK 2 chapter 25I dressed in my smoky red dress which hugged my bodice perfectly. The sleeves were long which had some different patterns at the hem. The dress was beautiful and it made me gorgeous in it. I wore my black wedge which had some stony particles on the top that was used to form love. I put on my black lengthy cape which compliments my smoky red dress. I left the room not without carrying my handbag along with me which was filled with my purse, keys, Atm and my ID cards.I opened the door and saw Abdulrahman had changed his outfits. He put on a black turtleneck polo which hugged his perfect chest. His V-line showed clearly with his scripture abs and his flexible muscles. His blue tailored pants reaching his enemies. The glasses he put on added more to his beauty. Men with glasses were cool. He parked the car at the front of the house while he was jiggling the car key."Do you like what you

I checked the time and saw it was 3:00 am in the morning.Who the heck calls at midnight?. I thought.I groaned still feeling sleepy, removed the duvet and picked it without looking at the caller."Sophia, please help me" I heard Maryam's urgent voice. I sat abruptly, straightening my back, my sleep was long gone."What happened?" I asked, now biting my own lip furiously in concern."It is Royhan" She called out frantically."What's wrong with brother Royhan?" I panicked, switching on the light."erm..." She trailed off, "you know..." She gulped because I heard the sound."You know what?. You are scaring me" I shou

    BK 2 chapter 23 We had been preparing for Maryam's nikkah (wedding). I was very happy for my friend, she was a sister I never had to me. I should make it a memorable day for her. Whenever I teased her being a wife to be, she always shies away. It was rare to see a bossy lady like her shy away from but it was fun, watching her. She was becoming herself back.She had hidden herself in pain and hurt. When someone is greatly hurt, he or she either becomes rude or silent. Maryam had a bitchy, bossy behaviour but I knew it was her past that made her that way. She was protecting herself from being hurt again. Don't judge people by their attitude, it was their past experience that changed them.I was dragging her to the mall, I needed to change her closet."But it doesn't mean" she whined while I gave her deaf ears.

    BK 2 chapter 22 I'd been discharged from hospital a month after Yusuf incident. I'd felt bad for him but there was nothing I could do.My life went back to normal, no drama. Abdulrahman became the most caring and sweetest husband. He attended to all my needs before battling my eyelashes. He knew what I wanted and needed.We were back together, living peacefully. I was happy and content. I'd have him all the permission to my properties, he was my husband and I trusted him.I sat on the couch, thinking about how I could talk to my boy about his father. I couldn't deny Yusuf's rights as a father. And my son had the right to know the truth but how can I go about it?.Children were complicated, how would I explain to him, I thought aloud.The man he knew wasn't his father?

    BK 2 chapter 21 I woke up groggily; groaning, squinting my eyes because of the light. I felt a wave of nausea wash over, I stood up quickly, went to the nearest washing basin and puked all the contents inside my stomach. I rinsed my mouth and face as I was walking out of the bathroom, I felt lightheaded. I held the nearest door for support or else I would have fallen with a loud thud on the floor.My family rushed inside, coming to my side. Abdulrahman helped me to the bed and gave me a glass of water. That was what I needed.I drank the water greedily like a thirsty camel. The water went down from my mouth to my stomach, my stomach rumbled. That was what happened to drinking water when you wake up with anything in the stomach."What happened?" my voice croaked, my throat was paining me as I talked. Then I remembered everything. Khadij
