hrowing the folder in his hand out of frustration the papers fly out of the pages making a mess on the bedroom floor, he stare at the portrait on the wall and his body begin shakinh from immense anger,
what brought about it
Frustration, worry, anger, pain.

No matter what it is it always revolves around the same imbecile of a girl.

An instant flash of irritation makes him to ball his hand into a fist and banged the glass console standing by the wall shattering it into pieces.
Immersed Raw anger shot through him atbthe stinging pain on his palm and he aggressively remove the mirror frim the wall and throw it to the ground shattering it into 100 pieces and more.
As he smashed out his anger away by throwing and breaking anything he lay hand on in the bedroom, he thought, thought bitterly about his life.

The mistakes, incompetence and his failure he's learned to carry on with him throughout his life, the heaviness, guilt, regrets, pain......the fear.

Just when he thought he's going to pick up his life to achieve something even though it's so wrong in anyone mind, in his own world its isn't, and then she came "falak"

Cunning her way into his family, manipulating her dad into getting him married, and now shes the most important priority in there lives.

First she'd maneuver her way into there hearts and now his father had to take the most 1 single achievement he's make and give it to her, that gold medal means everything to him.

Forget it's value in money it has more priceless worth, more prestige to him, as if that isn't enough his dad have to put her as the 2nd beneficiary to the company with 80% share, a company he's work so hard for and he did all that even without his consent, he just doesn't know what she wants from him.
What pained him more was when he asked he his father why he'd make such decision without him, he said.

*i did that for you to know her worth malik because you still haven't, so value her for what she possesses and you can keep both otherwise risk losing her with it along*

His own father blackmailing him because of a girl.

Is she trying to ruined the bond between he has with his family.
Because that is something he's not willing to let happen, his family means alot to him and with each passing day he seems to be losing them and it's all because of her.

***********************
Malik didn't even stay a day in jordan after eid, he booked an early flight back to Nigeria, everything, his entire life seems to be wobbling around and he believes falak is responsible for everything wrong going on in his life,

He was betrayed by each and evryone in his family, he still find it hard to process that ramlat was not married to Ahmad it's all a huge fake shit to make sure they keep him away from her, unfortunately enough she got married to his uncle only that this time for real, how ironic can this life be for him.

"Silence!"he banged his fist on the desk.
A what?
Since when did you have a say in my life?
This should not repeat itself if not you won't like the consequences."malik say to his brother who's just looking at him in extremely boredom.

"Dad said falak will be enrolled into school to continue her studies,
universities have start new admission you haven't say a word."fu,ad say and malik peered at him.

"she doesn't nees to be educated, it's a waste of money,
Mind your fucking business and respect me."

"Don't you think you're been hard on this girl?
she did nothing wrong to you,
Dad did what he wanted to so don't put the blame and anger on the innocent girl, falak isn't the one with the problem in this marriage,
you are, i believe if you can as well droll over uncle Muhammad wife you'd same over your wife if yih give her even the slightest attention,
For whatever reason is it if you didn't enroll falak in school you will have to face the wrath of the entire family, why will you not want your wife to go to school, if it isn't important then why were you educated, this isn't right and by Allah if you did something to her, dad will get to hear and I'm certain you don't want to happen, falak is a woman and your wife, do the needful."he went o his feet and head for the door but stop midway out.

"We all want what's best for you,
Ramlat is happy and pregnant if that's what you want to still chasing, face your own marriage because you are just chacing shadow."with that said he left.

Malik love his brother, alot, they had a great relationship, growing up he was basically the mother and figure in fu,ad life, he's without a doubt the only one aside his parent who can speak to him in that authoratative voice and go Scot free.
But for all reason fu,ad dared to threaten him because of falak, this girl certainly want to kill him but he will kill her before she separate him from all the dear things in his life.
