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

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. I didn't encounter any problem while working with her.After packing my necessary things I bid her goodbye glancing towards his door. Just then the door creaked open revealing the boss itself. our eyes met, it was as

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 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 HIt took me some minutes to register what just happened. Staring at my plate, I suddenly lost my appetite, I checked the ticket and the location is Dubai. 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”
