Arman and Assar.

🦋Chapter 31🖤

"I'm his sister" she said as she looked at the man who furrowed his brows at her, it's clear he does appreciate her lying she was his sister.

"I see, then why'd you ask if his family came to see him, aren't you from the same family" he asked suspiciously making her chuckle sarcastically

"Actually I'm his step sister and we sorta don't leave together so it's been long since I heard from that side of the family" she said trying her best to make it not sound like a lie which the doctor bought making her release a breath of relief.

"I see, anyways will you be staying here with him?" He asked as she looked at Arman, now he looked like he wanted her to say yes, he had the look of her saying she would stay.

"No I can't stay here with him but I'll come to visit him from time to time" she said as she looked at Arman who had an upset look now on his face.

"Okay then, you'll have to settle the hospital bills then and pay for all the surgeries his going to undertake" the doctor said

"How much will all that cost?" She asked praying it won't he expensive, she currently don't have much money in her account and had no one to give her money

"You should find out from the receptionist but heads-up the two surgeries might cost as least 7.2 million, he said as she gasped closing her mouth.

'where on earth would she get that amount from she thought to herself'

"Any problem?" The doctor asked as she nervously shook her head before looking at Arman.

"No, no, not at all" she said forcing a chuckle

"I'll get the money ready and pay off soon please just proceed with the treatments" she said as the doctor nodded

"Sure, we'll do our best" he responded as he give her a warm assuring smile while she forced a smile on her face

After that she had little conversation with the doctor before he excuse the room leaving the couple alone.

Assar stood back next to Arman who now had sleepy eyes.

"It's okay, you should sleep you'll need it" she said patting his head as he kept staring at her while his eyes slowly closes.

Staring down at the man, she's just lost and confused on how and where she was going to get the money to settle the hospital bills.

She has just 2.8 million in her account and that's not even half of the money needed, how's she going to raise the remaining money and who would be willing to help her.

Does Arman even deserves her help after all he has done to her in the past.

"Assalamualaikum" she said as she walked into the house with both her mums and Umar sitting in the living room.

The way they were all looking at her it's clear they have been waiting for her.

"Walaikum Salam, why did it take you so long?" Her mum asked

"And where are the things you went to buy?" She said again looking at her hands noticing there aren't any nylon bags.

"I didn't find the brand I wanted so I just left it" she responded

"Why did you then waste so much time?" Her mum asked

"I had to check other shops" she said a bit nervous

"It's okay, tell me what you want I'll buy it" Umar spoke up as she looked at him.

"It's fine, I'll get it another time" Assar said declining his offer

"I insist" he said looking at her as she just stared at him before letting a small nod

"I'll text it to you" she said as he nodded

"Come on, come and eat okay" her mum said to her as she nodded before looking at hajiya Maimuna

"Mummy, how are you feeling?" She asked as the woman give her a weak smile

"I'm fine, Alhamdullilah" she said releasing a smile

"Have you heard from Maryam?" She asked as Umar spoke up.

"Yes, she didn't get married to Aliyu" he said as she released a breath muttering Alhamdullilah.

"She ended up getting married to another Aliyu and I don't know who he is" Umar said as she looked at him confused

"A stranger?" She asked

"To us yes, but I'm sure your father knows him" he said

"Can you find out who he is?" She asked

"I'm working on that, hopefully I'll get feedback by Monday" he said as she nodded at him.

Is her dad really serious, what's his problem with getting her married. How must mum Maimuna be feeling now knowing her daughter is married to a mysterious person.
