13. The Diaper Bag

A sudden knock interrupted both of us from arguing.

"May I come in?" I heard Uméma's voice from outside.

"Yes please."

She entered in with her hands on her eyes.

"Are you guys decent?" Another drama queen.

Umemaaaa? Hunnnniiiii, you've got it all wrong.

"Uméma, don't talk as if you know none of us. You can remove your hand from your eyes. We were doing nothing for you to cover your eyes." Fahad scolded her just like a rude soul he is.

"Except arguing but that's usual." I piped in.

"Anyway." She dragged the 'y'. "I called you guys to have dinner. Come. Mom is calling you."

"I will come after changing Alizah's dress and feeding her." I mentioned her.

"What about you Faddy?" She asked and I couldn't control my laughter so I laughed out and soon Uméma too joined.

"How many time have I told you that don't call me that name, Uméma?" He gritted his teeth.

"But it's such a cute name." She argued. Yes yes! You go girl!

"Stop calling me that."

"What? Faddy?" I repeat as Uméma started laughing.

"You go Uméma. We will come soon." He stated sternly. One stone he is.

"I'll go before he lashes out again. Bye." Uméma rushed out if the room. She surely knows how to save herself. Who will save me from his wrath!!

"Why are you so aggressive?" I voiced him.

"Why are you so stupid?" He cocked his eyebrow me.

"Why are you so annoying?"

"Just like how you are."

"You better shut your mouth Fahad." I threatened.

"I will but after you." 

"Fine then I will and then you will too." I spoke agitatedly and went near Alizah.

I fed her the baby formula and was trying to make her sleep but she wasn't sleeping as she was busy in rotating in my arms, talking something in her gibberish language and snatching my hair in her fist.

"Ouch. Alizah. Baby, it hurts leave my hair." I winced due to the pain, but how will a baby understand my language. Instead she started doing it with more force.

"Ouch!" I hissed in pain because it hurted really very bad.

"FAHAD!!!!" I shouted for him.

"What happened again?" Fahad came from the bathroom, changed in his sweatpants and t-shirt and wet hair.

"Please remove Alizah's hands from my hair." I pleaded him.

"How could you ask a brainless person to help you? I have no brains according to you, right?" He pointed out in a bored tone. Ugh. . . I seriously wanna punch him in the face now!

"FAHAD DO IT AT INSTANT YOU SADIST!!!" I roared at him.

"Geez...don't shout." He came near us and hold Alizah's little hands tried to free them from my hair. As soon as he removed her hands from my hair I sighed out of relief and Alizah started crying. Did she like my hair that much? They are simply a cherry black colour. What's there to like about them so much?

Fahad took her from my hands and patted her back.

That sight warmed my heart. How much of a sore person was Fahad, he was a pure soul when it came to Alizah. It reminded me of my father. How caring he used to be with me. I remember how loving he was. We were a very happy family. Me, mom and Dad but always don't get what you wish to.

"Aww. . . Why is my princess so sad? You should be proud that you defeated a witch." Wait. I spoke too soon.

He looked at me and again turned his neck towards Alizah.

"What happened? Why so silent? Ran out of comebacks?" He sniggered.

"Nothing. Was just remembering about my father. How fathers can be so supportive towards their kids." I said ignoring his previous remark.

"No. It is not necessary." Uh, uh, WHY?

"Why?"

"Never mind let's go down for dinner."

Why is it not necessary according to him?
