"......don't do this to me please yaa arfaat". Said juwairiyyah coming out of her room in tears.
"You want me to lie juwai? Do you want me to accept the pregnancy i know nothing of?".
"Noo yaa arfaat, you know everything about it cuz you are its father, how can you deny your fatherhood?".
"Fatherhood??? Juwairiyyah you must be insane to think that am gonna accept that pregnancy, that baby is not mine and am not gonna accept what is not mine. Tell your parents the truth, am out of here!". Said arfaat
"Arfaat! Come back here, you can't leave without explaining things to me". Alhaji Abbas said in a bitter tone.
"There is nothing left for me to explain to you sir, am not the father if juwai's baby. You can ask her that".
"Juwairiyyah, tell me the truth please, kar kisa zuciyata ta buga. Is arfaat really not the father to that baby carrying?". Alhaji Abbas said tears rolling down his cheeks.
Juwairiyyah only stood there in tears, shocked at what is happening now, how could arfaat do a thing like that when he knows he is the father to the baby? She felt her heart aching, trying to burst because of too much sadness. Was this the way arfaat felt when she accused him of raping her? If thats the case, then he's really hurt!
"Yaa arfaat, ka taimakeni please, say this is your baby i beg of you".
Two hot and sharp slaps landed on juwai's face, from her dad. One of the best person she has ever had, slapping her today means that he's morethan angry.
"Arfaat must be right then, the baby is not his. If that baby ia his arfaat wouldn't deny being its dad.he accepted it when he raped you there is no way he'll deny that baby if its his".
"Dad...da....".
"Shut up juwairiyyah! Just shut up! And get out of my sight before i beat the hell out of you, you spoiled brat!. Juwairyyah kin kasheni da raina, you've killed me juwai". Alhaji Abbas said crying.
"Its okay Alhaji, i promise you that I'll take care of the baby like i am its father. I'll show the world that arfaat is the father of that baby. Just stop those tears Alhaji".
"How am i gonna repay you arfaat? Thank you so very much. I appreciate the love".
♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠
"Mama, i have some good news for you". Arfaat said smiling and sitting down beside mai kunu who is pounding crayfish.
Seeing that she didn't even care to notice about hia presence made arfaat sad. His mom is surely angry with him, all because of juwairiyyah! That bitch!
"Am going to be a father".
"What did i hear you say dan mama? You are going to be a father? Does that mean I'll soon be a mother?".
"Yes mama, that's it". Arfaat said happily seeing how happy his mom is.
Tears of happiness started rolling from mai kunu's eyes
"Allah nagode ma daka nuna mun wannan ranar, arfaat you see why i was angry when you divorced your wife. That baby is going to grow up without both parent"
"That's Allah's will mama, stop crying please".
"Dan mama, please ku mayar da aurenku, i don't want that baby to grow up without both if its parents". Mai kunu said in tears.
"Ki mana addu'a mama, may God choose what's best for us all".
"Juwai maman baby, you look more cute and sweet this days". Arfaat said smiling.
"Why did you do it? Why did you do it arfaat? Tell me please".
"Revenge juwairiyyah, you think I'll ever forget what you did to me? Noo! Not at all!".
"I thought after taking away my pride as a woman everything will be settled?"
"No juwai, this is just the beginning". Arfaat said wickedly.
What hurt juwairiyyah the most is that she is madly in love with arfaat now, especially after knowing he is the romantic type. That kills juwairiyyah the most. She wants her husband back, her world, her mr.right. Yes she's in love with arfaat and she'll try everything possible to see that she gets him back and teach him how to love her. That's when she'll pay him back before forgetting everything.
"Yaa arfaat, what if the baby looks exactly like you?". Juwairiyyah asked.
"Then you confess what you did to me and I'll confess too. I missed you juwai, thou we don't love each other and we keep hurting each other. I still miss those moments we shared together. Do you feel thesame?"

*22*
"......do you feel the same?". Arfaat asked.
Juwairiyyah felt her heart beat increasing, is arfaat really sure of what he is saying? Did he just say he missed their moment together?. Does that means he feel the way she is feeling?
"You missed the moment we shared together or you missed me yaa arfaat?".
"I missed the moment we shared together, but i miss you more juwai. Especially those lips, thou you've never allowed me to kiss them the way they deserved to be kissed". Arfaat said smiling, and that very moment feeling like he should grab her and kiss her like a wild animal. He really meant what he said, yes! He's missing her and he's still missing her, missing every single thing about her.
"Why did you start it juwai? Why did you start the game? How could you have accused me of a thing like that? Me raping you? Juwai lemme be frank here, you've hurt me a lot with that word. And i don't even know when am gonna forgive you".
"You started the game yaa arfaat, you were the first person to slap me since the day i was born. You disgraced me in front of those filty poor people. I took revenge for that slap".
"Lol, juwai kenan. I see you're still a kid, had it been you know what i have in mind for you now, you wouldn't have start that game. Am deeply hurt!".
"And so am i! You denying your fatherhood hurts more than anything. Dad doesn't even wanna see my face or talk to me. I only have some peace of mind when i am with mom, thou she's also angry but she also pity my condition."
"And our grandma?"
"Hajiya is the Best grandma on earth! Thou we always fight, but she's still by my side. Yaa arfaat, pity me dan Allah. Go now and tell them the truth, tell them that the baby is yours please". Juwairiyyah said crying.
"O come on baby, don't give up so easily, lets play the game to its end. This is just the beginning".
Life for juwairiyyah has took a new dimension. Her dad doesn't talk nor answer her greetings, sometimes he even try beating or slapping her. The juwairiyyah who is popularly known for her lack of respects for elders and poor people, now turned out to be cool and sympatheticπ.
Arfaat took her for her anti-natal every week, and by that time juwairiyyah is damn very sure she's in love with arfaat, a type of love even she can't explain how or why!.
For arfaat, it seems like he doesn't even seem to care about what she's going thru, the only thing that is bothering him is his relationship with his mom, which is still not stable. He has tried all what he can but to no avail, mai kunu is still standing on her point of view. Juwairiyyah must go back to her matrimonial home before everything is settled.
*9 months later*
Ewoo! I almost ran at the sight of juwai with her big tommy. So very big that i was thinking if triplets or twins lie in there.
"How you feeling juwai?". Arfaat asked looking at her with a lot of sympathy in his eyes.
"Yaa arfaat, i feel like am gonna die. I've swollen up everywhere. Look how big i look". Said juwairiyyah tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Hey! Look at me juwai, come on lily don't talk that way. You'll live a very long and healthy life in shaa Allah".
"Am gonna confess what i did to you yaa arfaat, i have a bad feeling about this. I don't want to die without clearing the mess I've started". Juwairiyyah said still crying.
"Look at me juwai, look into my eyes and tell me what you see".
Juwairiyyah couldn't move an inch, and didn't also look up at arfaat. Her heartbeat increases and she feels as if she started loving arfaat today.
"Juwai, won't you look up at me?".
"Yaa arfaat, its been a gr......". Juwairiyyah couldn't complete the sentence she started, because of the sharp pain that pinched her.
"Yaaa rabbi! I told you am dying yaa arfaat!". Juwairiyyah screamed in pain.
♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠
"Pass me the syringe". Said the doctor
"Here you go sir".
I was afraid at the blood i saw gushing from juwairiyyah's body. The doctor are trying their very best in stopping it, but to no avail. Blood kept gushing fast.
"Clean the baby rita! What are you still doing there holding it without washing it". Said the doctor again. This time around referring to the nurse who is holding the baby.
"Call my parents in, call in yaa arfaat. I don't want to die without seeing them". Juwairiyyah said in pain, crying so hard.
"Shhhhh.....keep quite and keep calm lily, am right here with you. Nothing is gonna happen to you in shaa Allah". Arfaat said tears running down his cheeks.
"A...a..am..m..m so...sor..sorry...y..yaa..a...arr..faat. F.or...give m..y stu...pidity. Am g..lad yo..u are st..ill by my side. Thank y..ou".
"Juwai, keep quite, you are too weak to talk, am right here with you".
"I..i..yaa..". She suddenly started gasping for breath, gasping so hard!
"How is she doctor?". Alhaji Abbas said coming into the room.
No one cared to ask about the baby, they all focused their attention on juwai. And i really don't think she's gonna make it!.

"Juwai!!!". Arfaat shouted shaking her so hard
"Juwai, juwai don't do this to me. We have a future ahead of us, we have a daughter now....please don't do this!". Arfaat said breaking into tears.
"What happened to my daughter? Don't tell me she's dead doctor". Alhaji Abbas said trying to free juwai from arfaat's grip.
"We need some time alone with her please. You all should go out". The doctor said addressing arfaat and Alhaji Abbas.
"Doctor, i want to stay. I have to stay". Arfaat said still holding juwairiyyah tight in his hands.
"She's bleeding alot doctor, we have to act fast". Said one of the nurses.
"This time around, you are getting out of here!".
Its been three hours, there is still no news about juwairiyyah, none of the doctors and nurses attending to her came out. Arfaat is beginning to loose his senses, he didn't even care to look at his beautiful baby, who looks exactly like juwairiyyah with nothing of resemblance with him. All his thoughts are what he's gonna do if he lost juwairiyyah.
He admits that she's stupid and naive, but he also loves her. He's madly and craxily in love with her, juwairiyyah has to make it. They have a future ahead of them, a very bright future.
"Dan mama, sit down and spare us your ups and downs!". Mai kunu snapped
"Come here arfaat, come sit close to me and have a look at your daughter". Said hajiya azumi.
"No, i don't want to see her yet. I only want t....."
"Doctor, doctor how is she?". Alhaji Abbas said as soon as he saw one of the doctors coming out, which was why arfaat caught of his speech and went straight to the doctor.
"Doctor, can we please see her? I hope she's okay". Said arfaat eagerly.
"We've managed to stop the bleeding and save her, but she has lost a lot of blood and will need someone to donate his/her blood or we get one from our lab. She's unconscious right now". Explained the doctor
"I'll donate mine if it'll help, but can we see her?". Arfaat asked agaiin
"Noo you can't, she needs to rest. Let's know your blood group first.
Juwairiyyah was unconscious for 38hrs, and by the time she woke up, they were all there. Standing close to the bed was arfaat, who didn't bulge since they were given the chance to see her. He feels as if, the moment he leaves her side he's gonna loose her.
"Juwai, juwai can you see me?". Arfaat asked moving so close to her
"Mom". Juwairiyyah murmured tears rolling down her cheeks
"I love you mom, this was how you suffered before bringing me into this world, what can i ever do to repay you mom? What can i??". Juwairiyyah said again, this time around hugging her mom so tight.
"Shhhhhhh...". Said her mom petting her on her head....."Keep quite angel, i love you so much and am happy you still here with me". Said her mom crying too.
Mothers are the best creations on earth, nothing can be compared with their loving hearts and charming souls. Our mom's deserve the very best we can ever give or offer them for we can never ever repay what they went thru for us. I LOVE YOU MOM, I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCHπππ
Its been three days since juwairiyyah came back home, but something seems odd cuz she don't seem to care about arfaat nor show she knows he's always there for her. She only greats or answer his greatings if an elder is close by. She laughs and smile at others but not with arfaat. The very moment she see's him, she screw her face up and won't laugh nor even smile at him.
"Angona ya iso". Hajiya azumi said in a cheerful manner as soon as arfaat stepped into the living room.
"Nifa banson tsohowa, na one fine girl i see". Arfaat said teasingly
"Ahap, da tsohuwar zuma ake ado aii, am still the best. You can bring three more, I'll still be your shining star".
"A hakan? Tun yaushe na shigo ko ruwa kinqi bani insha".
"OMG, am coming back right now with it angona". Said hajiya azumi going out of the living room.
Arfaat sat in the chair opposite juwairiyyah, looking at her and admiring how beautiful she looked.
"Juwai, mena miki ne?". Arfaat asked.
She didn't even bother to look up at him, nor give the impression that she heared what he said.
"Juwai am talking to you please".
"Just let me be dan Allah, am not in the mood to talk to you".
"Fine, lemme see my baby then".
"When did she become your baby? I thought you told my parents you are not her father?"
"But you and i know i am the father"
"Repeat what you just said arfaat! Did i hear you right? Did you just say you are the baby's real father?".
"Of course not hajiya! He can never be the father if my daughter, he knows the baby's father. But he Arfaat is not her father".

"But he Arfaat is not her father".Juwairiyyah said anger building up in her, and a lot of hatred for arfaat building more and more in her. She held the baby so tight to her, letting her feel her warmness. She just couldn't help it, and tears rolled down her cheeks, as tears roll down juwairiyyah only shook her head in despair. Wishing she had never came across a being like arfaat.
Hajiya Azumi stood at the doorway, looking at them both and wondering what is really going on between them both. She walked passed arfaat who still sat in the one man chair he was sitting since, doing nothing but thinking of the best way to bring juwairiyyah back to him.
"Let me have the baby juwai". Hajiya Azumi said stretching her hands to the reach of juwairiyyah. "It seems like you guys have a lot to talk about, I'll take the baby with me so that you can talk peacefully. Am very sure something is wrong with the both of you".
"No hajiya, i have nothing to say to him. You can talk to him, as for me a leaving!". Snapped juwairiyyah
Arfaat still sat there, head buried in his hands, deep in thought, he kept thinking and thinking why he had to play the game this hard!. He could have just jilted her after the contract marraige ended. Or just accepted his baby, ofcourse yes! His baby! How stupid of him to deny his own flesh and blood.
"Arfaat, can you please tell me what is happening here? I just can't seem to understand". Hajiya azumi said, a line of concern drawn on her face
"What is it you want to know hajiya? There is nothing wrong between us. She's still angry that i made her suffer during child birth".
"Hmmmn!" Hajiya azumi sighed deeply, deep inside she was smiling at the answer arfaat gave her........"Arfaat, am 75yrs old this year, am not a kid. I know perfectly well what is going on between you two. I've watched you both with keen interest for the past few days. Whatever it is going on between you two, we'll get to know it someday". And as soon as she ended her grammar, she stormed out of the room leaving arfaat all alone, deep in thought.
.***********************************
"Dan mama, you've made me happy son, am a grandma. O Allahna! Thank you for this blessing. Allah muku albarka". Mai kunu said looking at arfaat with lot of pride in her eyes.
Arfaat gave out a lazy smile and took in a deep breathe. He then looked up and see how happy his mother is. He could vividly remember how happy she was when she saw the baby few hours ago. How shattered will she be when she learns of what he did, denying his own flesh and blood!.
"Dan mama, is something wrong with you?" Mai kunu asked taping his shoulders with lots of concern......"you look worried, tell me please, what is disturbing you?".
"Its nothing mama". Arfaat said faking a smile....."am just exhausted, so much to do at the site and then the ups and downs to see juwai and the baby".
"You are really trying son, am proud of you. God bless you". Mai kunu said
"Amiin mamanah!, i love you a lot".
Was i seeing clearly or are my eyes seeing double? If am not mistaken this is juwairiyyah! Dressed in a beautifully fashioned atampa, sewed into a skirt and a blouse. She looked super beautiful in her mixed color of red and yellow atampa, and a heavy makeup applied to her face.
O geezz! I just remembered that today is the naming ceremony, and i don't know what got into arfaat cuz he named that baby after hajiya raliya!.
Alhamdulillah! The naming ceremony was fantastic as lots of people graced the occasion, with lots of love and happiness. And since then arfaat has not set his eyes on both juwairiyyah and his lil PRICELESS JEWEL RALIYA!.
Its been almost 3months now, and raliya who is called MAAMA has grown to be a very beautiful baby, taking every little bit of juwairiyyah's appearance, and in that period of time, arfaat had only seen her five times out of luck. And deep inside, he's loving and aching to be with juwairiyyah the more!.
To juwairiyyah, she had already made up her mind that the baby is hers alone, arfaat has denied her being his daughter, then fine, Shell father and mother the baby herself. She always try her possible best to take good care of raliya day and night, not minding hajiya azumi's pestering na RASHIN KUNYA(Funny how I'll born a child and be shy of it). Juwairiyyah turned a deef ear to what her grandma says about the lot of caring she gives her baby.
"O Allahna! Hajiya just go back to your room please". Juwairiyyah said one fateful morning......"i had a restless and sleepless night yesterday, i need to take a nap, totally not in the mood to listen to your ups and downs". Said juwairiyyah lying heavily on her layed bed.
"Are you still going to sleep with her tight in your arms juwai? Meyasa bakida kunya ne?"
"Same lectures over and over again hajiya, just get out of my room please!". Juwairiyyah said almost shouting.
Hajiya azumi shook her head and turned to leave the room....."yaran zamani sai a barku, babu kunyan dan fari ko kadan? Something must be done. I'll have to do something
"Kanki dai ake ji, same and same lecture every single day! Haba give me a break".
She slept for almost five hours, a very heavy and deep sleep. And through out those hours, Maama didn't even cry.
"Mamana, what's wrong? Are you that tired today?". Juwairiyyah said lifting maama from her bed.
Her heart skipped a beat as she felt the baby's cold skin, so cold as if she was just brought out of a refrigerator. She shook the baby so hard but maama didn't even move.

*25*
Juwairiyyah kept shaking the baby, shaking her so hard hoping the baby will give out a loud cry or just open her eyes. Fear crept into her heart, she laid down the baby back on her bed, and sat there, stunned, out of words, lost in deep thoughts.
"Mamanah! Mamanah...." Juwairiyyah choked, kneeling down by the bedside. Even in her ignorance of the death symptoms, this cold skin of her beloved daughter confirmed her fear.
"Hajiya! Hajiya come to my aid! Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihir rajiuun". Juwairiyyah said in tears, she choked up again for the second time, before losing her consciousness. Just then hajiya azumi, hajiya raliya and alhaji Abbas came into the room, all shocked at the scene they saw.
"What could have happened?". Hajiya raliya asked in tears, feeling the baby's pulse.
"Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihir rajiiun, she's gone alhaji, help me look at her, raliya is gone"
Let's go to the hospital, we might be wrong about it.
***************************************
Arfaat paced up and down, to and fro, as hot tears rolled down his cheeks, he has lost his only daughter, his heartbeat, HIS PRICELESS JEWEL, a daughter he denied being her dad, O Allah, have mercy on me. He looked up at Alhaji Abbas in despair, then at hajiya raliya and hajiya azumi, who has all been crying since after the doctors confirmed baby raliya's death. It all came as a shook to them, even thou they don't know her real father, but they've all grown fond of her, they loved her as much as they loved juwai.
"Its okay arfaat, take heart, the baby is not even yours; so please worry less and let's concentrate on praying for juwai to be back. She's been in that room for almost thr...."
He ended the speech as soon as he saw the red bulb at the entrance of the room juwairiyyah was taken off, and the doctor came out, sweating profusely.
"Doctor, how is she please?". Arfaat asked trembling, and holding the doctor's hand...."tell me shes okay please".
"We've managed to stable her condition, but no one can see her y...". Arfaat didn't even wait for the doctor to finish his statement, he went straight to the room, not minding to listen to the words the doctor was saying.
Juwairiyyah looked pale, cold and white, as if death has taken her also.
"Juwai, lilynah, my sweetest heart, my wife, my world, my everything. Don't do this to me please, juwai wake up. I need you with me, i need you badly. I want you back into my life, wants you back as my wife, please juwai". Still knowing the consequences of touching her, even knowing he has no right to touch her, he still did. He took her right hand close to his lips and kissed them lightly, then brushed a light kiss on her forehead.
"I promise you that I'll confess to our parents that raliya was my flesh and blood, i promise you that am gonna tell them all that i am raliya's father, wake u..."
"Arfaat! What the hell are you talking about?".

"Arfaat! What the hell are you talking about?". Mai kunu asked shocked....."Don't tell me you denied the baby is yours?" She asked again, as tears rolled down her cheeks.
Alhaji Abbas, Hajiya Raliya and Hajiya Azumi all stood at the doorway, stunned and suprised at what arfaat is saying. Alhaji Abbas was super shocked, remembering all what he did to her, what if she died? Without him asking for her forgiveness and telling her how much he love her.
"Mama, lis.....". A very sound slap landed on arfaat right cheek, and another again on his left. "How dare you arfaat! How could you do a thing like that? What has gotten into you? Was this the type of training i gave you? Am disappointed in you arfaat, i really am". Mai kunu said, shaking arfaat as tears of sadness keep rolling down her cheeks...."she's gone now arfaat, she's gone. Are you happy?".
"Mama pleas..."
"Shut up arfaat, shut up!"
"Calm down please my child, this is a family issue; let's all be patient and see how juwairiyyah is". Hajiya azumi said in a shaky voice.
Mai kunu shoved arfaat aside, and sat by the bedside, holding juwairiyyah's hand.
"Juwai, wake up please; if arfaat doesn't love you or your baby, we do juwai. Please wake up"
She held juwairiyyah's hand so tight, praying silently in her heart for juwai. And deep inside, thinking what she is going to do to arfaat. He definitely must pay for what he did, she'll show him how a responsible father and son acts
"Y..ya..aa...arf...aat". Juwairiyyah said, her voice barely audible.
"Am here lily". Arfaat said, rushing to her side and grabbing juwai's hand from mai kunu...."am right here by your side lily"
"Stay with me, don't ever let go". She said again, Squeezing arfaat's hands in hers...."don't ever let go, don't ever let go".
"I won't lily, I'll stay by your side forever". Arfaat said, her hands on his lips; not minding that she's not his wife anymore, nor minding the presence of their parents.
Mai kunu moved forward to separate them, but hajiya raliya stopped her; shaking her head...."let them be please".
Juwairiyyah stayed in the hospital for three days, and all those days; arfaat never left her side, they cried together, remembering there little princess. They all forgot what they have in mind together, spent every single moment together, falling inlove and inlove again. Arfaat knows, that he loves juwai morethan anything, and he can do anything just to get her back, and he will.
They all sat silently in the big sitting room, as juwai narrated every single detail about her relationship with arfaat, she told her parents that she lied, shr lied when she told them that arfaat raped her. Arfaat also gave his own side of the story, and their parents listened attentively. Hajiya azumi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"You children are silly, what type of game was this?". She said
Arfaat was shy, so shy that he stooped so low and joined juwairiyyah in her silly game.
"Am disappointed in you son, juwai is still a kid, you shouldn't have done what you did". Mai kunu said angrily
"But mama i..."
"Don't mama me please". She said, a harsh look on her face
"Alhaji, please and please, am begging you, forgive his insolence. He's still a kid and its my fault for not training him matured enough. Please forgive his silliness"
"Look hajia, juwai is the one at fault here. She started the game. Let bygones be bygones and lets all face the reality". Said Alhaji Abbas
"We all pray that you both get the best suitors ever, but; you shouldn't try a game like this anymore. Its risky". Hajiya raliya said, a line of concern drawn on her face.
"We've made up our minds that......."
"As salaamu alaikoom". A very deep and husky voice salaamed at the doorstep
"Wa alaikumus salaam". Arfaat said, walking to the door.
"OMG, yaa junayd!". Juwai said happily and ran towards him, giving him a very warm and tight hug....."i missed you so much yayanah, you left me all alone, i creid everyday, wanting to see you, to hear your voice; but you never cared to call or ask about me. You left without saying goodbye. What did i do to you to deserve this?". She asked crying so hard
"Shhhhh..... Its okay jewel, am back now. And we'll be together forever.
A very sharp feeling pierced thru arfaat's hard, who is this? And why will they be talking like re-united lovers?"

"Yaa junayd, i missed you so very much, hope you are back for good now?". Juwairiyyah asked still holding his hands
Junayd smiled, caressing juwai's face. He can't express how happy he is to see her........"yes baby, am back"....he said, taking her hands to his lips and pressing a light kiss on them..."am not gonna leave you agaiin".
Who the hell is this?, Arfaat is totally speechless, he stood there stunned, totally out of words. He turned and look at Alhaji Abbas, hajiya Azumi and Hajiya Raliya who were smiling at them.
"Welcome back son, or are you still not done looking at your sis?". Asked Alhaji Abbas, standing up and opening his hands for a hug.
"O papy, i missed you so very much". He walked to his open arms, but then suddenly changed his direction and hugged hajiya raliya, who only sat on the couch smiling.
"So you still have this habit of yours?". Alhaji Abbas asked raising one of his brow
"Of course papy, i missed you all". Said junayd hugging Alhaji Abbas tightly.
"Amarsu, how far?" Junayd asked, sitting close to hajiya Azumi who turned her face to the other direction, meaning she is angry........"Wify, come on, smile up. Lemme see those yello teeth of yours"
"Kujimun dan tselen uwa!". Hajiya azumi said, giving him a very hot slap on his back.
"Auch! Kin fara koh?"
"You fool, get out of my sight before i beat the hell out of you".
"Yaa junayd, come on, let's go to the garden. We have a lot to talk about". Juwairiyyah said, holding his right hand. Junayd looked up at her, she's beautiful. He squeezed her soft hands in his again before giving out a big smile.
"Excuse me please, can someone tell me what's going on here?". Asked asked, giving out a fake smile.
"Owwww, sorry Arfaat". Said juwai, smiling......"this is yaa junayd, my sweetest and most amazing super duper bro. He's my intimate cousin"......she looked at junayd smiling and said agaiin...."yaa junayd, this is arfaat..a..a..family friend". She said quickly.
Did she just called me by my name? And she also just called me a family friend? What the hell is happening here?
"Let's go inside, am super tired. I need a warm bath and a very long nap". Junayd said yawing and stretching his body.
"Lazy boy, a haka zan aure ka? I better marry arfaat, atleast he is strong. And he deciplined this silly girl over here"
"Oh really?". Junayd said looking at arfaat, he noticed how sad arfaat looked at him, with lots of hatred in his eyes. Could he be inlove with his juwai? No, that can't be. Even if he's inlove with her, juwai belong to him only!
"Let's go sweetheart" junayd said taking juwai's hand to his room.
"Lily". Arfaat called her back...."we have a lot to talk about, can we please......?"
Junayd looked at her, waiting for her reply, arfaat disgust him. He is very sure arfaat is inlove with juwai.
"Arrmm....i can't right now. Let's talk next time. See you, regards to mama".
Yaa ilahi! What is happening?
Arfaat couldn't sleep that very day, he called juwai's phone for almost 20 times that night, but she didn't pick up. What he didn't know is that, juwai is busy, listening to junayd's story. How he missed her.
"I can't let her go this time around". Arfaat said to himself...."she was once my wife, and she'll always be"
He had a restless night, so he woke up with a very severe headache.
"Dan mama, are you okay?". Mai kunu asked a line of concern on her face....."you seem worried, is something troubling you?"
"No mama, just having a slight headache, but am sure after taking drugs I'll be good to go". Arfaat lied
"Sorry, you're not going to the site today, rest at home. You can call Alhaji Abbas and explain things to him".
How can he sit at home when he's not sure of juwai? He can't loose her again. And he's very sure that that so-called intimate cousin of hers is inlove with her.
"No mama, i won't be long. I have something to do. I'll come back as soon as am done".
"Matar, where is juwai?". Arfaat asked hajiya azumi, who was sitting alone in the living room.
"In the garden with junayd". Hajiya Azumi replied....."they were inseparable right from childhood. His mom was my first child. We lost her 3yrs ago" hajiya azumi said, tears rolling down her cheeks. "He's an architect, he works in bauchi, but took a leave and went to London for 2yrs course".
"Oh! I see". Arfaat said. Chewing her words inside of him. "They were inseparable since childhood". He repeated thesame words again in his mind. This is getting serious.
He walked to the garden, a lot in his mind. He loves juwai more than anything. He's not gonna sit idle and let her go to someone else.
"Yaa junayd, stop it please". Juwai said laughing so hard...."stop, stop it please. I can't take it anymore" juwairiyyah said, still laughing.
Why is she laughing this hard, she seem happy too. I have to see for myself. His heart skipped a bit as he saw them. Juwai was lying comfortably on junayd's laps, and he was caressing her hair, they were both wet. Meaning they played with water.
"I missed you so very much yaa junayd".
"I missed you more baby, guess what i missed the most about you?. Junayd asked winking.
"Well....lemme see, arrmmmm....My beautiful face of course". Juwai said smiling.
"Not at all!. I missed those eyes of yours, especially how they gliter when you are happy".
Arfaat heart was beating very fast, anger building up in him.how could they sit like that? They are not married, and he's not her muharram. "I have to stop this" he thought.
"Lily" arfaat called slowly, standing an inch behind them.
"Oh! Yaa arfaat, good morning". Juwairiyyah greated, adjusting her head on junayd's laps the more.
Arfaat closed his eyes, a sharp pain piecing through his heart. He noticed how junayd looked at him with a look of contempt in his eyes.
"Salamu alaikoom" arfaat said, stretching his hand for a hand shake with junayd. Knowing the importance of answering salamah, junayd stretched his hand too
"Wa alaikumus salaam". He answered
"Can i have some few minutes with you please". He asked, looking at juwairiyyah.
"I'm kinda busy....."
"Go on with him sweriee, I'll wait. Don't be long". Junayd said smiling.
"Okay, will be right back".
They walked for a little distance, before arfaat stopped and look at her. She was wearing a peach arabian gown, with a black veil on her head. She looked so innocent, looking damo from the birth they took with the pipe in the garden. O Allah! How he so much love this girl.
"Where is your phone?" Arfaat asked slowly
"In my room" she answered
"I called you for almost 20 times yesterday, you didn't pick up"
"Oh! That, i was with yaa junayd throughout the night, i slept off late, so i didn't mind looking at the phone. Is something wrong?".
"Seems like, you still don't want to forgive and forget right?"
"That chapter is closed already yaa arfaat, let bygones be bygones. We've both hurt each other, i guess we are even".
"But you don't want to talk to me, do you know how i feel deep inside?". Arfaat asked sadly
"Oh come on yaa arfaat, what do you feel inside?". Juwairiyyah asked smiling.
He looked at her, dammit she's too sweet for words!..
"Let's forget it, a new session is starting soon, i deferred your admission last year, so you can start afresh now, 300lvl right?"
"Awww, how sweet of you yaa arfaat, thank you so much. I have to go back, don't wanna keep yaa junayd waiting for long. See ya later". Juwai said, turning to leave.
"Keep your phone close to you please, I'll give you a call later".
"Sure, don't worry".
*ONE WEEK LATER*
Nothing has changed from the way juwairiyyah treats arfaat this days, she's always together with junayd, yaa junayd this, yaa junayd that. Mai kunu tried her possible best to know what's bothering arfaat, he just won't open up. How could he look at her and tell her he's madly in love with juwairiyyah now?. Sometimes, a part of his heart do tell him to forget about her and move on, he just couldn't. He's never going to forget juwairiyyah.
One fateful Thursday evening, arfaat came to see juwairiyyah, he knew right well that he's gonna meet her with junayd, and so he did. They were both sitting together on plastic chairs in the compound. He took a deep breathe before walking over to them.
Junayd saw him coming, "this is the perfect time to put my plan into action". He thought. He took out a beautiful red box from his pocket, opened it and brought out a gold ring with initials on it.."J2". He took juwairiyyah's left hand, went on his knees and said...
"Will you be my wife?".
Arfaat lost it all, he almost missed a step. What could his ears be hearing? Junayd proposing to juwairiyyah? That can't be possible.
"Yaa junayd, what are you talking about?" Juwai asked confused
"You heard me right, i want to spend the rest of my life with you, be the father to your children and you a mother to my kids. I'll make you the happiest woman on earth juwai. Please, say yes".
"Yaa..ya..yaa junayd, OMG, you can't be serious". Juwairiyyah said, tears rolling down her cheeks
"Is that a yes?". Junayd asked smiling
*Wheew! Longest chappy ever, thank you for reading and don't forget to vote, vote and vote pleaseπ
. With lots of comments. I love you allππ*

*Well, MARYAMCY YAHYAπ, Happiest birthday loviee, thou am late, i hope and pray you had a blast. Live a long and happy life. ILYSVM*
*28*
"Is that a yes?" Junayd asked smiling.
Juwairiyyah was still silent, she sat still, tears rolling down her cheeks, her heart beats increased in pace, as if she ran for kilometers without stopping to rest. She grew up with junayd, shared a lot of things with him. Infact, she was already in love with him when he left, but now, she can't say for sure what she have in mind, she can't say if she still loves him or not. Wait, she's now a divorcΓ©e, will he still marry her that way?. My earliest memory has always been with yaa junayd, him bathing me, feeding, clothing and so on.
I was so engrossed in my thoughts, when i felt yaa junayd's hand on mine,... I looked up at him, my eyes still moist from the tears i shed.
"What is it?" He asked calmly, looking deep into my eyes...."don't you love me?". He asked slowly, in a tiny voice.
Oh! I'm so sorry, it..tss just that i..i...."
"You what? You don't love me right?"
"No, yaa junayd, don't jump into conclusion please. I need time to think about this".
Junayd was silent, he knew what he did was outta line, thou he's not sure if she loves him as much as he loves her. But its a promise he made to himself, he is surely never letting her go. He looked up and saw arfaat, still standing behind them in shock, a perplexed expression on his face. He let out a mischievous smile and squeezed juwairiyyah's hand again. She looked at him, and got his look in her back, she then turned slightly to see what he was looking at. Her eyes straight into arfaat's eyes, who was boiling with rage.
She didn't know how, and she can't say for sure how it all happened. But she found herself freeing her hands from junayd's grip. How long has he been standing there?, she thought. O Allah, i hope he didn't hear yaa junayd's propsal.
"Yaa arfaat" she called, letting out a fake smile.
How sweet!, at least she considered his presence, he was pleased, at thesame time happy.
"Lily" he replied back smiling so sweetly.
"Arrmm...ya junayd, am coming please". She said making her way right to where arfaat was standing, his arms folded to his chest....."let's go, we need to talk". She said to arfaat. He followed her suit.
"For how long have you been standing there? Where you eavesdropping?". She asked smiling
"For as long as you sat there shocked". He replied sounding serious.
"Lily, we need to settle things. You know i love you morethan anything, and i know you also love me. Don't just let him ruin it all. Let's spend the rest of our life together please". He said, stressing the word *please*.
"But i don't want to". She said crying seriously, remembering there stay together.
"Why?". He asked surprised
"Because i don't want to. I know the game has ended, but i..i just can't forget it. I can't forget what we all did to hurt each other. I'm sorry for everything, but i can't go back to you agaiin. Its too late".
"Lily, listen to me. This is not fair, how can you end things like this? This is just the beginning of our love story".
"I still don't want to. Please, don't you ever come back here. I'm marrying yaa junayd, as you can see it for yourself, he had proposed to me already".
"Juwairiyyah!". Arfaat called her in anger, building up with rage......"don't you dare call his name in my presence again. I love you, and you love me, i see no reason why you'll try to end a beautiful relationship like ours". He said bitterly.
"That's because I've never loved you! I don't love you, and i never will!". She ended the sentence breaking down into tears, abd before arfaat could add a word, juwai had already left the scene. Junayd is a disaster to us all, arfaat thought. How could he come back at a time like this? O Allah, help me out of this predicament.
Its been 3days since junayd's proposal to juwai, but juwai still haven't said a word, it seems to him like she's avoiding him. She's always in her room, hajiya Azumi noticed the little drama going on in the house, deep inside she has always wished that junayd married juwai, but as days goes by, she found herself praying and hoping she and arfaat forgets everything and build up a new chapter of their life. She made up her mind to talk to juwai about it.
So, one faithful Wednesday afternoon, she stepped into juwairiyyah's room, to her surprise, she was on phone, talking to arfaat.
"OMG, don't even dream about it yaa arfaat, i can't"
"Lily, why do you like arguing with me this days? Is that how a real wife material act?"
"Ohhh". Juwairiyyah said, her right hand in her lips....."Wife material, i almost forgot I'm your wife material". She said happily. Hajiya Azumi could see the happiness in her granddaughters eyes. She caught up juwairiyyah saying
"No no no ya arfaat, you look sweet in blue. Especially if its "shaddah", with a cap on your head, protecting those curly hair for me from the eyes of other ladies". Juwairiyyah said, a little bit shy.
"That's my Tinkerbell, you are just too sweet for words lilynah, i love you so very much".
"I love you more yaa arfaat, gotta go, i have a lot to do. Hey! Wait up, when are you coming over? Its been three days since i saw you".
"Expect me tonight baby".
She ended the call, a smile on her face. Yes, she can't deny it anymore. She can still remember how they settled everything two days back. She fell back on her bed, happy. Just as she turned to the right side of her bed, she caught Hajiya Azumi's eyes on her. She quickly sat up, O Allah, for how long has she been standing there? Juwai thought.
"Why that look on your face?". Hajiya Azumi said, as she went into the room, closing the door behind her.
"For how long were you standing there hajiya?"
"Juwai kenan, so you choosed arfaat over junayd?"
"Hajiya...i..i".
"You love arfaat not junayd right?" Hajiya Azumi chirped in.
"Yes, hajiya its not like i choosed him over junayd i just..."
"You just love arfaat, don't worry dear. I'm right behind your back.
But what shocked hajiya azumi is how junayd turned to be these days, he's always alone. And if you wanna see him talking, then stay close when he's begging for juwai's love. Hajiya azumi became sad, so sad about the outcome. Junayd is her first grandchild, his happiness matters a lot to her.
"Junayd" she called him tapping his shoulder and sitting beside him on the couch...."are you alright?"
"Am not". He answered blankly
"Want to talk about it?". She asked.
Junayd turned and looked at her slightly, he'll try his luck with his grandma, maybe he'll win juwai over with her efforts.
"Its juwai, I'm trying my possible best to show her how much she means to me, but she never seemed to understand nor care about my feelings towards her. I'm hurt deep in here hajiya, it hurts a lot". He said his hand on his heart.
"Yaa salaam!". Hajiya azumi said shocked....."has it reach to that limit?" She added, her eyes wide open.
"I love her so much hajiya, look into my eyes and you can see it". He said as he takes her hands in his...."hajiya, help me please". He added as tears fill up his eyes.
"Yaa junayd". Juwai called from behind them........ "Your heart hurts?"
He only nodded in response
"But why?, it shouldn't hurt yaa junayd, I've made up my mind, am gonna marry you. Happy?".

*A page for the two darlings of junayd☺...ROOKIEY AND ZEENUR. I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH BABESπ*
*29*
"Yaa junayd". Juwai called from behind, he turned slightly and looked at her. "Your heart hurts?"
He only nodded in response
"But why yaa junayd? It shouldn't hurt because I've made up my mind". She said slowly, looking at junayd and then hajiya azumi...."I'll marry you, happy?"
Junayd couldn't believe what he just heard, juwai can't be serious.
"Juwai, i need to talk to you". Hajiya azumi said, as she stood up from the couch she was sitting beside junayd. "Issues like this needs time and decision making, you can't just do things the way you want them".
"I only want to talk to yaa junayd privately" she said, as she looked at hajiya azumi straight in the eyes. "Without you interfering, we need some time alone". She concluded
"But juw...."
"Say no more grandma, just go".
Hajiya Azumi looked at her grandchildren, she can't help them, there is nothing she can do about it. They'll have to decide on their future. She left the scene after looking at them both for a long time. Junayd only sat there, he just couldn't say what he is feeling right now, was it happiness? Or fear? He really can't say for sure. He looked up at juwairiyyah as she sat on the couch hajiya azumi sat moments ago.
"Yaa junayd, i know what it feels like to love, i can't really say for sure what you are going thru, but i don't want my fav bro and the sweetest cousin I've ever had to suffer because of me. But i must confess somethings to you before we proceed with the wedding plan". She said, looking at him straight in the eyes, she was wondering how his reaction will be if she tells him about her married life with arfaat. "I am a divorcΓ©e" she said slowly
Junayd quickly rose up, looking at her unbelievingly. DivorcΓ©e? He asked himself, how can that be? How can she marry someone without waiting for him? No! Impossible, whoever was it will have to pay, not only him, but the two of the; juwai and her so called ex husband.
"You didn't wait for him". He said slowly, sounding more like a question and a sentence. "Why angel? Why didn't you wait for me? Why did you have to marry someone before me? Do you hate me that much?" He asked, his eyes watery.
"I had to! I just had to get married to yaa arfaat because of what i did. I gave birth but then lost the baby" she said sadly, her voice chocking as she remembered her baby.
"You gave birth?" He asked, his eyes wide open. "You married and gave birth with arfaat?"
"Yes. I did"
"Yaa Allah!" Junayd said in anger. "Why? How could you do this to me? You knew i love you, you knew about it since. And i know you also loved me too. Why juwai? Why a thing like this?". He said, tears rolling down his cheeks. I then realised junayd is the jealous type, a very very jealous guy!.
"I'm sorry" juwai said in tears, i had to, it had to happen that way. Please let's forget about the past and face the future. If you think you can marry me the way i am, then fine, talk to dad later".
"Of course i won't let you slip thru my fingers for the second time. Goddamnit! I hate you arfaat, i hate you so very much".
"Don't, please. Don't hate him". Junayd gave her a sharp look, and she could feel his hatred towards arfaat as he looked at her.
"Don't you dare talk about him to me again. You are my wife, I'm marrying you juwai!".
Arfaat was worried sick, he has been calling juwai for the past 5hrs without her picking. What could have happened. Its already past 9:00pm so he can't visit her at a time like that. He then decided to go and explain things to his mom, he's sure she'll give him a motherly advice on how to tackle things this time around. He walked straight to her room and found her reciting the holy Qur'aan, he sat down by her side and joined her in the recitation. They read for almost an hour before concluding.
Mai kunu looked at arfaat, she's proud of him. "Is something wrong?" She asked, looking at him.
"No mama, just wanted to talk about something with you"
"Sure, go ahead"
"Mama" arfaat called looking at her and holding her soft hands in his. "I'm thinking of remarrying juwairiyyah".
"Are you serious son?" Mai kunu asked happily, and arfaat could see and sence it.
"Yes mama, we still talking things thru, haven't made up our mind yet, thou I've made up my mind, just waiting for juwai's response"
"Alhamdulillah!" Mai kunu said happily. "I wish you the very best dan mama. This time around, don't mess with her please, take good care of her and be a good father to your kids".
"I sure will mama. In shaa Allah"
The sound of his phone, alerting him of a message woke him up from sleep, he stretched his hands to where the phone was and checked who the sender was. He woke up quickly from his bed as soon as he saw juwai contact. He didn't know why, but his heart gave a blast as soon as he saw her name on the screen.
He then opened the message content and read it. I didn't know what he saw as the content, the only thing i saw was tears rolling down his cheeks. "No..no juwai, you can't do this to me! Nooooo, don't do this please". He read the message for the second time again.
*"Yaa arfaat, am sorry about this, but I'm getting married to yaa junayd in two weeks time. I had to make a decision like this for us both, please, stay away from me. As you can see I'm now someone's wife. I wish you the very best life can offer. Bissalam"*
"Why juwai? Does it seem like i don't love you? Does it look like the feelings i have for you are not real? Why? Why a thing like this?" He said, crying so hard as he slipped down to floor, his head in his hands, crying so badly.
He couldn't go out to work that day, as he had a terrible fever starting that very monday morning. Mai kunu tried her best, but to no avail, arfaat wouldn't take drugs neither did he say a word to his worried mother. What he only think about is juwai and her so called marriage to be in two weeks time.
*10days later*
Juwairiyyah has been busy lately, but by mere looking at her, you'll know she ia greatly disturbed. She has a lot in mind. Thinking about arfaat, this was not like him, arfaat wouldn't have adhered to her warning, he still would have come over and hear it from her mouth, but he didn't. Meaning he has given up already.
She walked in to hajiya azumi's room, just to have some peace of mind.
"Juwai, are you okay?" Hajiya azumi asked slowly, only God knows what is going thru her head right now.
"Yes grandma, I'm fine". Juwai replied, she then looked at hajiya azumi, trying to say something but decided to keep quite about it.
"Say what you have in mind child, i know you want to say something".
"No grandma, just forget it. I have to go". She said as she quickly left the room. She wouldn't want her grandmother to get worried too, but She'll have to call arfaat and find out if he's okay or not. This isn't like him. She called arfaat several times, but the answer is still thesame. The number is switched off"
Arfaat has been admitted to the hospital for the past five days, he has grown pale, and he looked weak. Mai kunu was super worried about his condition. She's always by his side. Hoping that he'll open his eyes, hold her hands and tell her what is wrong with him.
