F A R A HThe rays of the sun woke me up from my deep slumber, I slept in the same place Jawad left me yesterday. The room was quite only the sound of birds chirping.I literally walked to the bathroom and took a hot bath to soothe my aching body. I dressed into a simple black legging with a white baggy top and tied my hair in a bun wrapping my hijab on it.My eyes roam to the bed finding it clean exactly as it is yesterday, it means Jawad didn't sleep in the room. I ignore the pang of hurt I felt, brushing off the thought of Jawad I decided to make myself some breakfast since aunt Fatima is still on vacation. I stood in front of the fridge contemplating what to make, I decided to make some pancakes with hot chocolate. I set my plate on the dining ready to devour when I heard sounds of footsteps, I don't have to be told who it was because nobody is living in the house apart from me and Jawad. Ignoring him I continue devouring my food.fifteen minutes later, I was done with the little

He's been giving me a lot of work, I know he's doing it intentionally to provoke me but I tried not to show my weakness. After what happened one week ago I decided to forget everything and focus on my work, I won't let him get to me.FlashbackWhen I heard the loud bang, I literally ran to check hoping nothing happened but what I heard made my eyes widen in shock. There stood Jawad, his phone pressed to his ear talking to whoever I don't know. “I'm telling you, man, I'll have to tolerate living with her, I don't know what my parent sees in her, she's clearly not the type of girl I want as a wife” “That's the problem” he laughed at something whoever is on the phone said. A lone tear fell from my eyes, I quickly wiped it away. Be strong Farah. I know I'm not supposed to feel this way, he clearly told me his intentio

F A R A H By the time I went back to the office, I asked precious to give him the file as I'm not ready to face him again at least after what happened. When I told her about the resignation she was surprised and angry at the same time, although I didn't tell her the whole reason for my resignation. “Oh, Farah. I'm going to miss you” she engulfs me in a hug.“You're a good secretary, he's going to regret letting you go, I will make sure of that” she folded her hands in a fist squinting her eyes a bit.“I will miss you too, and don't worry he's going to find another secretary who is better than me” I wiped off the lone tear that threatens to spill from my eyes.“We will get in touch right?” She asked breaking the hug.“Of course we will” precious is indeed a nice friend.

F A R A H“What!” I stared at him mouth hung open as if he's grown two heads. His face didn't show any form of a joke. “Why must we act as couples in love, let's act normally,” he clenched his jaw knitting his brows in a frown.“It's the only option we have,” stuffing his hands in his pocket, he stormed out of the room, closing the door with a loud thud; I let out a small sigh How can we pretend to be couples in love, when we don't even talk to each other that much, something must be wrong with this man.I stayed up in my room all day, only go out when it's necessary. Picking up the plate, I took them downstairs, the living room is eerily quiet. Aunt Fatima must be sleeping. Taking a bottle of water and walking towards the room, I heard the sound of something smashing followed by voices which I recognize so well.“At least try”“Stay out of my fucking business” hearing the footsteps coming to my direction. I quickly dashed inside and slouched down on the bed, pretending to be sleepin

𝐅 𝐀 𝐑 𝐀 𝐇"Nah... You know I can't wear this, it's too revealing""Come on Farah, you have to look sexy for Jawad" she chimed.Only if she knew"Okay let's check the other sections." She stated disappearing out of the door.Seriously all these things are getting on my nerves. First pretending to be couples in love and now date."You coming," Myrah shouted from outside, getting me out of my thoughts."Yeah coming"We checked almost all the sections, from dresses, cosmetics, lingeries talking of lingerie is making me cringe."Why did we buy a lot of things, it's just a date" I exclaimed taking the shopping bags off the counter."What do you mean a lot of things, you literally need them for your date," shrugging her shoulder she paid the bills, walking towards the exit. "And besides, they are not all yours; I also bought for myself," She said rolling her eyes.We put all the shopping bags inside the car.Ya Allah, I will never go shopping with Myrah again, she's such a shopping frea

F A R A HMorning came and I instantly dress up finding the bed empty, Jawad must be in office.Going downstairs I met with Myrah, a plate of scrambled egg in her front, her brows furrowed. Moving towards her, I took a fresh plate placing my own scrambled egg and started munching on it immediately, Myrah didn't even know I'm sitting beside her.“Hello you there?” I waved my hands in front of her face, snapping her out of her thought. She forced a smile taking a bite of her untouched food.“Is something bothering you?” I asked with concern.“No.. Nothing.” She answered back. The little days I spent with her, I know she's not a quiet one there must be something bothering her. She looks out of place, her eyes look lost, I decided not to question her more, we ate in silence. Until she pulled her chair back muttering I'm stepping out for a bit. I let out a small sigh.“Farah aren't you going out together with Myrah?” Aunt Fatima asked, picking up the plates from the dinning.“No..did some

F A R A H“What did you just said?”I couldn't believe what he just uttered“Did you hate me that much?” I asked watching him with my almost teary eyes. I thought maybe after spending our fake time he will at least change his dislike but I'm wrong.“I can't believe you hate me that much” pushing him off me, I stormed out of his office not even paying attention to the stares I'm getting, hailing a taxi I finally let out the tears.Introducing you as my wife is an embarrassment to me.His words kept repeating in my head. The taxi stopped at the gate, I cleared my face not wanting Myrah and Aunt Fatima to suspect something.Entering the house, I heard Aunt Fatima and Myrah laughing watching some movie. Upon seeing me Myrah gave me one of her cute smile.She looks happy“Come join us” She ushered me to come. I sat down beside Aunt Fatima.“This movie is really funny Farah” Myrah said giggling.I'm glad they didn't notice my change of mood. Watching the movie, made my mind off all the thi

I always wish to visit Dubai someday but now going together with Jawad, I don't feel that excited anymore.WaitDo these tickets has to do with Myrah?I need to have a word with her.I kept the leftover food in the fridge and walked towards her room. Knocking on the door she opened immediately.That was fast“Hey honeymoon girl, do you need help with parking” she teased, I rolled my eyes.“Yeah I need your help, but first tell me does this honeymoon thing has anything to do with you?” I asked eyeing her suspiciously.“What do you mean, it's just a suggestion” she muttered playing with the hem of her hijab.I knew it!“Come on Farah maybe going on the honeymoon will get you two closer” she added, I rolled my eyes by her remark.Closer my foot“You know that will not be possible, so brush off any weird thought from your head”

To say I'm nervous will be an understatement, Myrah is helping me with the parking even though i insist i will do the parking myself but being the stubborn one she refused."You have to pack those two" she said holding up a black lacy Nightgown.Subhanallah "No i don't need them" i form my lips in a thin line. Glancing at her, she frowned her face indicating she's not happy with my reply."Okay i will take them" her face immediately turns to smile."If you wear this Jawad will fall hea.." Glaring at her she held her hand up. Putting the remaining clothes inside the trolley, i zip it up taking a look at the big clock placed at the concrete wall."I want to see mom before leaving" i said taking my hijab and tying it around my head."Can i accompany you, the house is boring" she shows me her puppy face, the one she uses when she wants to convince someone."Sure but we won't stay long, as you know our flight is in the next fiftee
