Mending a broken heart.

chapter sixteen.

"Babe " says Abbas referring to ruba whom walked by,  ruining his plan.
"Thanks ruba" I said running out of sight as fast as I could.
I could see the look on ruba's face
Wondering why I thank her before I left.

I couldn't believe Abbas is here, just because of me.
His here to ruin my life.
Why didn't I see it coming.
Abbas never liked blondes.
We are Caucasian Muslims.
And I know being Muslims we always cover our hairs. But I do not know how Abbas always end up with brunette.
She possible couldn't have just fallen for ruba, I mean ruba hardly covers her hair at home and sometimes she lives a strand  out when out
So they couldn't have been any possible way that he didn't know.
What would I tell ruba.
She won't believe me
She wouldn't believe abbas doesn't love her.
She's clearly head over hills over him.
tears kept rolling down my cheeks trying to figure out what to do.
"Are you sure you are okay " asked Ruba.
"Yes, what happen " I asked trying to sound okay.
"For starters you opened the freezer and stood there. Second you where weeping in the freezer
And thirdly I was standing here for minutes and you hardly notice me".
I felt helpless, and caught.
Should I tell her,
No are you stupid she would definitely not believe says my subconscious arguing with me.
"I was just thinking about farida's condition"  I lied .
"Oh " said Ruba  , giving me a comforting  hug.
"We all feel sorry for her But you have to put your trust in Allah, all you could do is pray for her " said Ruba.
"Yeah" , I said breaking up the hug.
I took what I came for from the freezer and close it.
Then I headed back to najwa's room.

🔴🔵⚪⚫

I woked up in the night feeling tasty.
Abid was fast asleep and it won't be right to wake him, so I decided to get water from the kitchen my self.
I was pouring the water in a cup when I suddenly felt a hand over my mouth.
I was terrified.
Please let it not be abbas I prayed
But to my wildest dream it was.
It felt like a night mare I would want to wake up from right now.
Abbas was forcing a kiss on me.
I tried to shout but I couldn't because I was prevented from. I could see his eyes burning with desire. It made me felt disgusted
He forced a kiss from me , he was kissing me pressing me against the kitchen cabinet.
I managed to get something from the cabinet that I couldn't see what it was because the kitchen was somehow dark.
I hit his head with the object I took from the kitchen.
Abbas quickly withdraw from me from the sharp pain he felt.
I ran quickly out of the kitchen abondering the water I came for.
I locked the door behind me once in my room.
I entered the room and sat on the wc .
I washed my mouth with different mouthwash trying to remove the kiss that was forced upon me.
I sat there crying for hours.
I woked up in the morning hearing Abid's voice over me.

"Where you that sleepy when you came to use the washroom "asked Abid laughing really hard at me.
Holly f**k ,
I must have slept off in the bathroom.
When I tried to get up, my head was heavy from last night wailing.
I suddenly became annoyed,
At myself
At the stupid Abbas
At Abid for not knowing something was wrong.
I hissed and left the bathroom.
Abid followed me to apologise thinking I was mad because of him .
I pretended to be okay , so that Abid won't be worried.
I went back to the bathroom,
Had my bath, perform my ablution.
After "sallah" I went back to bed.

We went for breakfast after najwa has left for school with the house driver.

"What's wrong with your head" asked Abid getting concerned.

ABBAS was wearing a bandage all over his head.
I honestly didn't feel anything, call me wicked but I felt he got what he deserve.
"He felt in the bathroom last night" said Ruba answering Abid.
Abid went and got some pain relievers for Abbas before leaving for work.
He honestly doesn't deserve this affection I thought.
Remembering last night made me furious.
I Couldn't believe that he's not just a pervert but a lier also.

The next day I went to ruba's room
"Ruba we need to talk, i need to tell you something" I said .
"Me too" said ruba.
"Ok you go first ruba".
"No you " insisted  ruba.
I insisted she goes first so she did.
"Badia I need your advice" she began.
"Am really in love with Abbas , he completes  my world.
Just the sight of him makes me feel happy.
Do you think am good enough for him" asked ruba shyly.
"Oh you are more than good enough" I answered.
Ruba kept babbling about how she cares and love Abbas.
Oh my Allah what do I do now.
How can I tell her that he's cheating her, that his here just to ruin my life.
Certainly it is  said love is blind, ruba is so in love that she couldn't see the truth if it stands right in front of her.
I couldn't figure out what to do.
If I tell her the truth she might act hysterical and even hate me.
One thing for sure,  she wouldn't believe anything bad said about Abbas.
Should I propose to Abbas said ruba bringing me out of my thoughts.
I felt like a lost fish in a huge river.
"Ruba, you shouldn't" i said almost yelling.
"What!" , she asked confuse .
"I mean wait , A guy should always be the one to propose., how could you know how much he loves you back if you don't wait for him to make the first move".
"But I can't wait to be called Mrs.Abbas " said ruba blushing while I got shucked on her words.
"Ruba you should play hard to get to see how much he cares", I said
"Ok , what did you wanted to say earlier?", asked ruba reminding me of why I came to her room.
"NOTHING" I said given her my practical smile .
"You sure ?", asked  ruba
I nodded and stood to leave.
I couldn't believe what my ears heard.
Was I late .
I should have told her the minute I saw her that abbas was bad news.
I walked out of ruba's room almost motionless, my feets where moving but my mind was miles from here.
