The relationship between Usey and Anisah bloomed every single day. It was as if they were both remedy to their sorrows.

Presently Anisah stood in front of the basin washing the dishes which waleed had just finished eating from. She hummed happily at the thought of her and Useys plan of going out to watch a movie on Saturday which was a free day for her.

"Ahhh" she yelped at the stinging pain which she felt in her stomach. The pain was unbearable and she decided to sit on the floor of the kitchen where she clutched her stomach tightly.

"Ibrahim" the name of her elder brother escaped her lips as she laid on the floor "Ibrahim" she mumbled again while closing her eyes slowly. She opened her eyes again and stared at her leg which was covered with blood. "Waleed" she managed to yell before briefly fainting.

Waleed on the other hand was seated on his bed with his laptop on his lap, sipping a cup of ice tea. "She didn't even add sugar" he said angrily while shutting his laptop and placing it on his cupboard, Ready to go insult Anisah for not being able to prepare a proper ice tea.

He walked towards the door and then halted when he was about to open it "maybe she's even asleep" he said and shut the door again and went back to his bed where he sat again with his laptop on his lap once again.

He smiled at the beautiful memories of the pictures which were displayed on his laptop "I miss you salma" he said with little tears pickling out of his eyeball as he stared at the picture before him. "May Allah grant you paradise my love, rest in peace" he mumbled with some dua's before shutting down his laptop and then laying back on his bed, he muttered the sleeping dua before shutting hid tired eyeballs.

***

The sun shined into the kitchen where Anisah still laid in her own blood, she was breathing but still unconscious. The pain was still there but she couldn't feel it because of her state.

Waleed on the other hand sat on his prayer mat making some dua's for the world, his mum, and everyone he loved and cared for.

"Alhamdudilah" he muttered as he rubbed his palm on his face. "Where is this witch, I reckon she is asleep" he mumbled to himself while getting up from where he sat on the mat.

He took a glimpse of the desk clock and nodded to himself when he saw that the time was 7:50. He smiled to himself when he knew that he would be able to use this to torment Anisah later about waking up late.

"Let me let her sleep some more, I'll wake her up when its 10AM" he said while picking up the Al-Quran that laid on his cupboard.

He recited the Quran beautifully, pronouncing each word perfectly. His voice was indeed melodious.

After a couple of hours more than ten, he checked the time and saw that it was twelve, the fasting had began eating him up.

"Where's this girl?" He asked himself while getting up, he walked out of his room and straight to her room where he knocked and got no response. "Witch come out, what kind of sleep is this?" He said while knocking on the door.

"Maybe she's downstairs already" he thought and decided going downstairs. On his way downstairs his phone began ringing and he halted and checked the caller ID which had Usey written on it.

"Hey Usey"he said the second he picked up the call.

"Yo, is Anisah at home?" Usey asked which made a silent hiss escape waleeds lips.

"No she's not at home, she went for a cerminal with her mum and she'll be back tomorrow" he lied. He lied because he found anger in watching them together. It was a terrible sight to his eyes.

"Alright. Thank you" Usey said before hangig up. "What a fool he didn't even ask about the design" waleed said and immediately called Usey again and he immediately picked up.

"Yeah what's up?" Usey said.

"You are big fool. You didn't ask about Mr Rathod's design" he said and Usey gasped.

"Oh my God. I'll have to go to India for this" Usey said with a pinch of sadness in his voice.

"Yeah you'll have to" Waleed felt a little excited as he spoke.

"Alright I'll leave next week. I'll come to your house tomorrow to begin the design" he said and waleed mumbled an okay before cutting the call.

"Where could she be" he walked down the stairs and went straight to the front door which he pulled open and walked out towards jaja's post which was the gate. He had completely forgotten about the kitchen.

"Jaja" waleed called which startled poor jaja who was focused on his phone.

"Where is that girl, my maid. Did you see her going out?" He asked jaja who immediately nodded in the negative.

"No oo, I no sure say she go anywhere" jaja said and waleed nodded and turned away to leave but jaja stopped him.

"Ogah" jaja called and he turned Arround.

"What?" Waleed asked.

"Ogah I dey hungry. I no get money to buy food and she neva give me food" Jaja said and realization dawned on waleed that he had not searched the kitchen so he immediately walked away ignoring jaja who mumbled a curse at him.

He entered into the livingroom and walked towards the kitchen where he pushed the door open and the sight of Anisah laying in blood was the first that welcomed him.

"Anisah" her name sounded Foreign to him coming from his mouth. He ran towards her and immediately picked her up bridal style and ran outside the house where he immediately ran towards the car which he pulled open by clicking on a button on the key in his hand.

"Jaja open the gate" he yelled at jaja who ran to do as told, with that done by jaja. He drove out in full speed that even made jaja's mouth go agape.
