the struggle of life

The pain💔

khadijas pov
****************
i kept a straight face and walked into my parents house ,as soon as i came in i met my family in the sitting room,i blinked back some tears that escaped and forced a smile on my sad face

as salamu alaikum i said,all turned to look at me,no one answered my greetings ,to say I was shocked was an understatement,i kept quiet for some minutes before I found myself saying what happened,is everything ok? , why the silence....as soon as I finish saying that abbu stood up and came to me,he looked at me for some minutes before he placed his hands on my cheeks
Beta are you ok,he asked
I was confused because I knew I didn't tell them anything nor did I allow atika,I forced a smile and nodded
He kept quiet then he continued that is the problem I have with you, you always hide things from us and now this,why beta why, I looked at mum in confusion and said what did i hide from you?
Suhail have told us everything dear mum said just then my eyes began to water
I lowered my face and let my tears rush down on their own just then Abbas enveloped me in a hug
I moved back after the hug and told them everything will be ok I just need some time alone and I ran to the room crying

*******
I woke up when I heared mum screaming rafiqahs name,I marched to the bathroom did my buisness and performed wudhu,I came out wore my hijab and prayed and after that I turned to my lord and told him all my problems,I cried and cried till I was tired of crying ,my heart was aching from all
Angles,I felt like something was kept on my heart,i taught about all our wonderful moments,those memories were the best days of my life ya allah why did this happen, how can suhail do something like that, and dad how could he snatch suhails contract despite knowing that suhail was going for that ,what is happening ....I had many questions on my mind and I needed their answers but for now I decided to keep quiet for rafiqah and Abbas sake, and I decided to ask abbu only after their marriage.

**********
I came down and found ammi asking some servants to clean the guest room ,
Ammi is anyone coming I asked
Yes beta she answered and continued rafiqah mum and dad are coming
Ohh I answered and sluggishly sat down as after that crying session there was no energy left inside this body of mine
There was silence for some minutes before ammi said beta did you talk to suhail
Hearing suhails name my eyes teared up just then ammi continued
No matter what he is your husband and if he is angry you need to console him
I sighed and said you console who listens nah ammi but he is not ready to listen

Ammi stared at me and said but what was the reason for this fight beta

I turned my face and blurted I don't want to talk about it now and I added pleasee softly
Ammi understood and nodded
I turned and hugged ammi and thanked her for understanding and then I asked her about the engagement chores,she first hesitated and said I needed to rest but I assured her I was ok and she finally gave in.

**************
I went to Abbas room and knocked but there was no answer so I decided to check rafiqahs room,as I reached her room I found the two lovers talking,I stepped forward and heared rafiqah saying
You can't do that to me abbas ,I have already invited everyone
Yes I know but you don't expect me to marry when my sister is going through problems,he held her by her shoulder and continued please try to understand please ...I knew where this was heading so I decided to interfere by saying
No Abbas you two are getting engaged tomorrow
But khadija you...
Abbas I said with a stern voice
And he gave in and nodded and then he excused his self I went up to rafiqah and apologized,then we continued chit chatting for some time

***********
The day passed by by me hiding my pain from my family and Abbas wedding preparations,it was night now and I am all alone in my room,I missed suh and I couldn't hold Back my self so I decided to call him,I dialed his number and waited patiently for some minutes
As soon as the phone was answered I heared his hello voice,ya allah he was drunk ,
Suh you are drunk I said softly
Who the hell are you to tell me that he shouted
I felt like someone stoned me as soon as he finished saying that words, my eyes began to water and before I could say something that phone was cut.i didn't know what to do I was becoming restless so I decided to call atika
I rang her up twice but no answer and the third time Alhamdullilah she picked,
Hello she said
As salamu alaikum atika
Wa alaikumus salam she replied
Atika suh is drunk please if you can.....
I know and you don't have to worry about my brother Am there to take care of him ok byee and she hung up on me...I was shocked hearing Atika ,I sat down crying and I said my best freind,my husband all have turned against me whyyy whyyyy... I stood up and layed on my bed thinking of all recent happenings till I slept..
