The couple just left the restaurant and then decided to stroll round a park near by, base on Rahama's insistence. She is too eager to know more about Mansir as she had it in mind that she will be spending the rest of her life with him. This was the best time, she thought.
" I hope you enjoyed your meal? " asked Mansir as they walk towards a bench. The park is crowded with people, most especially couples who were out on a date.
She nodded " yes I did. Thanks for taking me out"
He waved it off " you don't need to thank me. Its my job as your husband to be, In shaa Allah "
Wow, he is a true believer , Thought Rahama, thinking she knows one of his attributes.
" I hope so" she responded shyly
They reach the bench and both sat on it. The atmosphere was already getting cool, in a good way since the sun is already fading away. They both sat in silence for few seconds, enjoying the view around. Like how couples were spread eve
For someone like Jafar to be up this early, was so surprising to Sadiq. Sadiq has always known him to be a lover of sleep and no one can compete with Jafar in that aspect.Sadiq was sat on the bed looking at how his friend ran from one angle to the other in the room . He wonders what could have make his friend woke up this early and he is damn sure that it isn't because of work. If it was work, he would have waken up around 7 o'clockbut this was different.When they both got back from fajr prayer , Jafar didn't go back to bed as he always does, instead he use the time to prepare some clothes like someone who was going for an occasion." I hope all is well? "asked sadiqJafar turn to look at him with a small smile " of course all is well, why did you ask? "" this new behavior of yours is making me scared. I mean, I have never seen a day you don't go back to bed after fajr prayer. Why is today different? "
" SHE WILL DO NO SUCH THING "She paused. Wondering who dares to defy her order. She slowly turn around to come face to face with the culprits." you? " she pointed at the personWith challenging eyes the person said " yes me"She blinked her eyes to check if this was some kind of joke. " are you for real?What gave you the nerve to be here? "With folded arms he said " what gave you the assurance that I will answer that question?" he then glance at the lady still on the floor crying." Ma'am, please get up and go wash up yourself at the washroom " he calmly said to the lady to which she nodded and try to get upRahama hurriedly stand at the woman's front " she goes no where until she finish her punishment "" and I said, she won't do it " he challenged" Don't get ahead of yourself Mr mechanic, don't forget that you're in my father's company and I have every right to do as I want with anybody I want "
No one would ever wish to fall on Rahama's bad side. The only person that seems not to be affected by her is Sadiq . So far, he has been the only person that always put her in her place.He is like her tormentor and she hates the fact that he always gets to her.The event of yesterday is still deep eating her up. Her dad had been avoiding the topic since yesterday when she confronted him at home. He was able to get pass the topic by lying that he wasn't feeling too well so they should leave the matter till today.Here she is, right at his office, tapping her foot, waiting for him to finish going through the file he was busy with. And the funny fact was that Alhaji Dabo was only using the file as an excuse to delay the matter. Rahama is a very big headache for him. He was dissapointed when one of his employee had to explain what happened at the office after his absence. Its high time he tells her what she need and what she needed right now is
TWO WEEKS LATER" I called you two here to discuss about the meeting we'll be having with the Koreans. They were very impressed with the last meeting we had . Unfortunately, this one will be different "" why is that? " asked sadiq with furrowed brows. Rahama side glares at him coz she was also about to ask the same question.Recently, Sadiq has been the center of attention, both from her dad and even the workers. They all kept her aside as if she was nothing and its so annoying. For the past week,she had tried her possible best to make the office hell for Sadiq but it always backfired on her so she gave up." Because I will be traveling abroad for two month concerning some personal matters. So, I will like the two of you to take over this meeting , make them comfortable and show them what Prestige enterprise got to offer. "They nodded " I promise to do my best sir"Rahama glares at him " what about me? why are you t
" frankly I must say, you two are a good match. Business really looks good on you. Thanks for having us. " one of the Koreans investor had to admit. He was too impressed with the two, they actually did surprised him especially sadiq." We appreciate your compliments sir and we are happy to be able to meet your expectations . It was also nice doing business with you all" sadiq shakes each of their handsThey all answered with 'welcome 'Rahama only bow her head as a sign of appreciation which is one of Koreans culture since she couldn't shake their hands as she is a Muslim ." thank you once again" she said and they all nodded and walked out with sadiq trailing behind them.The office is now left with only Rahama. The happiness in her couldn't be explained but expressed, so she did by screaming loud in joy ." yes I did it. Wow!, my first meeting was really a success. I can't believe it!"Don't forget you weren't
Jafar couldn't contain his joy when it was announced that their wicked boss will be traveling out of the country which means that sakeena is coming back to the office to take the post again. He had missed seeing her face for quite sometime now. She went to spent time with her aunty and now that she is back he just couldn't wait to see her. Although,they had exchanged numbers but non among them had called the other yet. Jafar didn't call because he doesn't want her to think of him as someone too disturbing.What jafar doesn't know is that , sakeena had been wait for his calls day and night but never got one. So, she longed stopped waiting to see one. But now that she will be at the office today, she doesn't know how she would do to hold in her feelings for him. His thoughts hadn't once left her and she doesn't know if he feels the same way she does.She came out of her car in her peach abaya. Already, most of the workers
silver or blackBadiyya couldn't help but contemplate on which colour of car she would take among so many cars parked in their driveway. She wasn't acting to be a spoilt brat, in fact these two cars which she was actually having difficulties to choose, is the cheapest among all the various cars. Just because her dad was rich doesn't mean she need to behave spoilt when in fact she hates spoilt kids, all they do is annoy her.The black one it isShe finally decided to take the black one since it wouldn't be as flashy as the silver one. She dressed up nicely in a beautiful sewed atampa . Badiyya is a very calm and collected lady, she doesn't look down on people no matter where and what background they come from. She sees everyone as equal. We are all human and whatever material things we think we have, we aren't taking it to our graves. All of it will be left on earth, so why behave as if you have the world under your foot?.She starts the car and drove out of t
ONE MONTH AND THREE WEEKS." just few days left and we will be out of naija !!" squealed jafar excitedly . He couldn't wait.He finally asked Sakeena out to which she said yes and they are now a couple. He had explained all the story of his life to her.Both his family issues and his about to travel abroad.She was happy for him and promised to come visiting once in a while.Sadiq shakes his head at Jafar 's silliness " I can see that you're eager"he chuckle" yes o" answered jafar "I hope you've told your sis about us leaving soon?"Sadiq chuckled, remembering her expression when he told her yesterday. She came to pay him a visit . She has been doing that for almost one month now since they met at the restaurant.She felt bad about him leaving, in a good way though. If she had a chance to follow him, she would have but because they don't want many people to know about it, she is now trying to adapt with the situation." of course I did alread
It's two weeks now since alhaji ringim passed away. The death shocked alot of people. Some didn't even know that he was sick. It came as a total shock when it was announced on TV and radio. People are mourning for him. He was a good man indeed. Badiyya hasn't said anything since the day he died. She kept herself locked up in his room. Her daddy was gone. He is never going to come back. Her heart breaks miserably.She hugged herself so tight wishing he was here hugging her " my daddy "He was her hero. Her everything. Why does he have to leave too soon?. He promise that he wouldn't leave but he disappointed her. The door kept knocking but she wasn't answering." Badiyya?" rahama called from the other side of the door. " I know you're listening to me, please open up. Talk to us, sakeena and I are worried sick for you. Your brothers are also worried. Please badiyya always remember that we are now family and family sticks together. "She still didn't
ONE MONTH LATERHappinessHappiness is when you see your children happy and together. Happiness is that emotion you feel when the two sons you thought might not reconcile finally proves you wrong. Happiness is when you have peace of mind. Happiness is everything.Alhaji ringim couldn't help but watch his two sons finally getting married. His heart warmth at the smile on their faces. He also knows that their wife's will surely take good care of them from where he had stopped. Even if he was gone ,he knows that his children are in good hands. They will continue his reign from where he had stopped.It came as a surprise to him when the two brothers decides to marry at the same time.On a second thought, alhaji heart aches at the fact that he was leaving too soon. Soon enough for him to even see more of his grandkids. At least he was able to see Mansir's son.He hasn't told anyone about his deteriorating health which he had bee
" are you sure you don't remember anything?" aunty yasira asked again" no I don't " rahama answered with a confused look on her face " am I supposed to remember that? "" yes you are " yasira nodded" I think I should call the doctor" she turned around to make her way to the door. The moment her hand held the door knob, she was stopped by the sound of rahama's laughter she quickly turned with eyes wide open" did I just fooled the almighty aunty yasira? " Rahama wiggled her brows " of course I remember everything about the accident. Infact I'm still surprised that I survived it"Yasira gasped " Did you just lied to me? " she was totally shocked. She made her way back to rahama's bed and raised her hand to hit rahama on her arm " I can't believe you got me fooled! "" ouch! your hand hurts alot!. Can't you take a joke for once?"" A joke? You called this a joke? " she scoffed " we all have been worried sick that maybe the fall you

He made sure to snap the drivers face in other to be easy for the police man to arrest them. He paid the bike man and the man left immediately.

Enjoy ?☺Mansir straightened his shirt then blew out a quiet breath before he opens the door. At first, he acted confused upon seeing two police officer together with his brother, sadiq" Hello Officers?" he said more like a question. He then looked at Sadiq "what is this all about ? " he asked pointing at the officers" They're here to question you" sadiq answered with folded arms." excuse me? What offence have I committed ? Haven't you done enough? "The officers moved forward when things was about to get heated" Mr ringim, we know this is a sudden visit for you but we're only here to do our job"" Really " he folded his arms " what might that job be? ""we're here to question you concerning his fiancee who met with an accident" one of the officers explainedMansir cocked a brow " and how is that my business? "" officer I told you he is the one,see how he is behaving. Arrest him" sadiq said angrily
FearThat word was particularly what Sameer was feeling. He has never witness such a brutal accident as this one.This was totally brutal and pure wickedness. The car which hit rahama didn't even stay behind to save her, instead it fled immediately. It was as if it purposely hit her. People can be so wickedSameeer pace round in worry as the doctors were taking time to tell him how she was doing. He wanted calling the police but decided against it . He hasn't called any of rahama's family since he doesn't have her number. Thank God he found a phone on her but unfortunately the battery was dead so he pleaded with one of the nurses to please help him charge it.He heard the sound of the emergency door open, he quickly stood up and rush to the doctor " please doctor tell me she is going to survive this? " almost in tearsThe doctor heaved a sigh " I'm sorry, we are still trying our best on her. Are you the family of Miss.... " he trailed off
RecapWHAT THE HELL!"Everyone turned towards the person that shouted out the last statementPresent" Rahama are you OK? " Jafar asked quizzically " Do you know Kamila From somewhere? " he just couldn't understand why she just shouted out the way she did...Rahama glared at the lady standing close to him" ask her" she said pointing at KamilahHe looked at his sister " Kamila is there something I should know? "Kamila's fingers kept shaking in fear " i_i_i i know her " she broke down in tears" please talk to me " Jafar pleaded calmly at the sight of her tears" I use to go out with her ex fiance " she confessedJafar still does not understand " are you talking about Mansir? " Kamilah nodded " yes"" We still don't get what is happening. Rahama can you please explain more better? " sadiq asked from where he is sat.Rahama heaved a small sigh " Mansir was cheating o
Sadiq was having second thoughts on whether he should go to the RINGIM GROUP OF COMPANY or not. Something inside him has been pestering him to go. He groaned annoyingly and then got out of bed." It's best I go. Let's hear what that man has to say once and for all" he said to himself.He wanted the visit to be a surprised one which is why he hasn't called anyone not even his father.Sadiq took the towel which was laying flat on the couch. He went into the bathroom to do his business. Then finally, he was out 15 minutes later. He quickly prepared. He wants the visit to be a fast one, wouldn't take more than an hour or even thirty minutes because he has other places to be.He made sure to send a morning text to his darling rahama before walking out of the room. There in the living room was Jafar who is watching the morning news. Jafar has been an absentee for almost a week now. Well, sadiq doesn't blame him, he has been busy with his now completed h
