•••• •••• •••• ••••Amirah wasn't at home or she was intentionally refusing to open up the gate so he got down and used his key to open it, Abubakar drove the key in and Muhammad locked up behind him."Where do you think your Amirah went to?"Abubakar asked teasingly, Muhammad chose to ignore him and went into the house. He knocked on the door to her room and when she didn't reply after few knocks, he poked his head into her room and called out,"Amirah?" There was no answer."Man she isn't at home, stop shouting." Abubakar said from the kitchen. Muhammad closed the door and went to meet him wondering where she could've gone to, to his best of knowledge, she didn't know anyone, she wasn't a social butterfly so she had no friends."I'm going to make noodles." Abubakar declared.

 •••• •••• •••• ••••It was evening and Amirah was still not back. Abubakar was long gone, Ummul Khair's was incessantly calling him, Amirah's phone was switched off and Muhammad was going crazy with worry.He finally picked Ummul Khair's call,"Assalamualaikum." He greeted curtly."You said you'll come. You promised!"He sighed wearily, "I'll come, just text me the address of where you are now.""Thank you." She ended the call and few minutes letter a message from her came in.He wore a black shirt over his sweatpants before picking up his car keys from his bedside and leaving the house.The drive was longer due to traffic. She didn't live that far from where the hospital they both worked at was located so he was a bit familiar with the environ

•••• •••• •••• ••••Muhammad was elated. He decided he'll put the thought of where Amirah had been last night behind him. She had lied but for whatever reason he forgave her, she was obviously ready to give them a new chance.After all these months, five whole hellish months and In Sha Allah they'll soon be over it all. Nothing could dampen his excitement, not even the thought of seeing Ummul Khair plus he had some issues to settle with Abubakar, the idiot!He had a surgery scheduled for 8am so he got into his office and began to prepare, he changed into his scrubs before picking up the file of his patient and looking over it and that was when the door opened and Abubakar stepped in."Hey I wanted calling you last night but I slept off. Did you find your wife?" He asked teasingly and Muhammad gave him a glar

•••• •••• •••• •••• Amirah pushed him off from her immediately and AbdulRahman slightly stumbled. "What was that for?" She whisper-yelled at him looking around to see if anyone had seen but the estate was quiet, as usual. He stepped in past her brushing her slightly aside to enter the compound. "What's wrong with you?" Amirah asked right after locking the gate behind her. "You, that's what's wrong with me. Haven't you been seeing my calls?" "I have and I didn't pic

Muhammad drove out of the house angrily, he'd said he'll sleep at a hotel but he found himself en route to Ummul Khair's place. How did Amirah know he'd had anything to do with her? He needed answers, he needed to know if Ummul Khair had been the one who told her.So he parked in front of her house and got into the compound heading straight to her apartment. She opened the door, dressed in a big T-shirt that reached her mid things, her hair was covered in a bonnet and she had a cup of ice cream in hand.Ummul Khair eyed him up and down, "can I help you?""Can I come in?" He tried not to remember what had happened the last time he'd been here.She eyed him warily before going in, a wordless invite to him, he followed her in. She sat and crossed her legs, his gaze dragged to her long bare legs, he quickly averted it but she'd caught him."Why are you here Muhammad? I don't remember us
