After 4 days in the hospital and a week after the shooting incident, Ali brought Ami and Mabel home to his parents’ villa in Al Reef. As soon as they arrived though, Ami asked Ali if they could talk.

“Relax Mansour, Ami decided to stay at her cottage tonight so she could look after her uncle. She requested that someone bring her food so I am just about to go.” “May I come? You know I am a spy for someone, remember?” Mansour grinned at Rain’s sour look. Rain couldn’t do anything but nod. “Sorry guys, I need to feed that cat over there. You know how she is if she gets hungry, becomes a tigress.” They all laughed at this even Mansour as he too knew about Ami’s appetite.

Ohh my precious, precious girl, your mother will turn in her grave if she sees you now. “ Mrs. Gonzales gathered Ami in her arms. Ami was motionless and emotionless. "Rain! Come quick. " Just like that, Ami snapped out of her stupor. "Auntie Claudia, I am fine. Please do not worry, I just spaced out a bit. I do that every once in a while to calm myself. It is like a meditation of some sort, meditation a la Ami.” “Are you sure? For a while there, you almost ga

When Ami was seated, he said, “I have already gone to the facility and here is the medical report.” Ami stared at the piece of paper and then before she could change her mind, took it.

Although Ami urged Mansour to go ahead to the UAE, he refused and told her she needed all the friends she had.

The funeral had been a hectic week, after her uncle’s burial, her uncle’s lawyer came and gave Ami her uncle’s last will and testament.

The Sheikha even commented that Ami was working with a vengeance. Her vivacity doubled or tripled thus attracting more males than Rain would have liked. One of the Sheikha’s clients even attempted to flirt with her, but Ami ignored him. She introduced the guy to another colleague who wants to flirt shamelessly and Ami let them. She just reminded the girl sternly to be very careful and mindful of her actions because she still works for the Al Fahezis. Though the colleague disliked Ami because of her close association with their employers, she heeded her. Ami couldn’t care less if the girl liked her or not. She is one of those people who think they are above others and she has zero tolerance for them but she tries to be very civil. R
