Chapter 16

Safeeya's POV

I was seated so Peacefully in my room when the loud sound of my doorbell jolted me up from where I laid.

"Who could that be?" I thought, getting up from the bed and making my way downstairs.

I made my way towards the Door and opened it only to meet Zaki dressed in a suit, he looked very handsome, if I must say.

"Zaki, Good evening"I said and he smiled.

"get dressed and come with me"he said which seemed stupid to my ear because i am in no way following him. Especially at this hour of the night,

"And what makes you thought I'm very stupid to follow you?" I said, though I knew there was an error in my statement.

"Safeeya, I have something very important to show you, and this will determine your life"he said.

"well, make that tomorrow because I don't think I am okay going with you at this hour of the night"I said.

"safeeya because of Allah, come with me."he said.

"Zaki what don't you understand by I don't want to go with you by this time of the night"I yelled.

"its something about humaid"he said and my heartbeat Accelerated.

"what do you mean about humaid?" I asked.

"just come with me and I'll show you"he said and immediately, i ran upstairs to get my veil.


"Let's go"I said while coming down the stairs in full speed.

"Can you at least go wear something more beautiful, because what you are about to see will be more painful if you are dressed like this"he said as I locked the door to my house.

"Zaki, I only Accepted coming along with you because its about humaid and what is wrong with my Atampa? (Local fabric)"I said and he shook his head.

"okay let's go then"he said and I followed him towards his car which I sat in along with him and in no time we were on the road.

The drive to the destination which I was unaware of, was silent. we didn't say a thing until we arrived there, the place was a very big and very beautiful Building.

"Where are we?" I questioned.

"Just come with me" he said and I sighed as I Walked behind him.

We walked into a big hall where many people were seated and eating different delicacies.

"Look over there" Zaki pointed at where humaid stood with a woman who was so beautifully dressed just like everyone in the room.

I felt confused, scared, angry as I walked over to where humaid and the lady who I recognized to be the lady from the train station, she noticed me and she called unto humaids attention, and he looked at me in shock as he walked over to me in Anger.

"What are you doing here safeeya?" He asked so angrily.

"I should be asking you the same"I said, Zaki was right. I should have worn something more Attractive. I felt so ugly right now standing before this woman.

"Safeeya leave here before you create a scene" he said as he held my hand to drag me out.

"Mr Humaid"that voice sounded so Familiar, so I looked over to him And saw that it was Mr Sam and the other man.

"I see you brought your maid," Mr Sam eyed me so irritatingly.

"I Am... "I said but Humaid tried to shut me up Which i protested to.

"I Am not his maid, But his wife" I yelled which got the Attention of the crowd in the hall.

"Safeeya go home" he said through gritted teeths.

"I am not going home" I said which got the Attention of the news reporters holding a mic as they immediately hovered arround humaid throwing questions at him.

"Mr humaid is what she is saying the truth ? Mr Humaid answer us. You just Introduced a woman as your girlfriend so who is she to you then?"the reporters bombarded him with questions.

He didn't seem to want to answer as he told them this was a personal issue.

"I'll answer those questions for you" I sair which got the Attention of the press who ran to me in a pace.

"I am his wife and that lady is his mistress" I said with so much anger as I pointed at the woman who stood next to humaid.

"that's a lie"humaid said as though regaining his speech, and the reporters went over to him again.

"She is not my wife, she is my maid and there is nothing between us, I don't know if the care I've been showing towards her has gotten to her heart as to thinking she is my wife, but she is nothing to me but my maid. This woman over there is the only woman in my life and I love her. what will I do with this trash of a woman as a wife!?" His words pierced my heart and my body in Different ways, I couldn't believe my ears. He called me his maid in public? He called me a trash?.

I couldn't take all this as the press began to take pictures and bombard me with questions, I ran away from the place which I stood and made my way out, I couldn't find zakis car so I left on foot.

I walked on the road in lost, I couldn't stop crying at my own defeat, all that Zaki said played in my head as I walked hopelessly on the road.

My world was swirling in circles, my ears were deaf to the world, my eyes were weak and so were my tongue. I felt like dieing this instant.

"Look out" A voice yelled "lady look out"it kept on yelling and suddenly I felt a very rough push as I landed on the floor, roughly and suddenly my vision became blurry as all I could see was darkness.
