Behind You - Episode 11

 

Farah

The ray of 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 infront of the fridge contemplating what to make, i decided to make some pancake with hot chocolate . I set my plate on the dinning ready to devour when i heard sounds of footsteps, i don't have to be told who it was because nobody is leaving in the house only me and jawad.

Ignoring him i continue with what i was doing eating my pancake with hot chocolate, after eating i washed the plates. Since i have nothing to do i settle myself on the couch and continue reading my book, i heard some footstep, i looked up to find jawad taking out cola from the fridge. As if someone pinched me an idea popped up, an evil smirk made itself on my lips, just as he was about to open the lid, sound echo through the living room it must be his phone, he kept the cola on the counter and went away to pick his phone.

That gives me chance to execute my plans, i took the cola and shake it up and down, i kept it gently making sure jawad wouldn't know someone touched it

. I tiptoed quietly to my sit with a smile. Just wait and see jawad.

He came back still talking on the phone he took the cola ready to open one two...and bang the cola spilled all over his shirt white shirt. I held in my laughter, i heard him cussing and banging, i ignore it while passing he glare at me, i frown as if i didn't what happened. He left for the bedroom banging the door shut loud enough to make me flinch; i broke into a laugh OMG you did it Farah mission accomplish.

After praying, i changed into my pajamas ready to sleep, after the incident jawad left the house grumbling with a new pair of shirt he kind of look handsome oh come on farah my mind told me.

So here i am reciting my night prayers when the my so called husband enter the room in his glory with his face emotionless as usual, since am used to him behaving like this i ignored him, i was about to laid down when he called my name.

"Farah" i turned to him without saying anything. 

“keep this file inside the drawer for me" he hand me the file. Why can't he keep it by himself? My mind told me.

I took slow steps towards the drawer and kept the file. I felt something tickling my foot oh my god cockroach!! Cockroach!! Subhannallah!! I shouted with all my might. I stumbled back and fell on my back 

"Ouch" i groan in pain. I heard jawad laughing, serious laugh I've never seen him like this. He's laughing on top of his lungs clutching his stomach.

"Scary cat" he said in the midst of laughter.

"Whats funny, am in pain and you're there laughing at me" i spat scratching my back. His face changes to frown.

"Do you think you're smart? I wouldn't know what you did?" He folded his hand on his chest. It can't be.

"I know you're the one that shake the cola trying to irritate me" he took a step towards me.

"I know you're scared of cockroach, so i kept the fake cockroach on the floor on purpose, so that you will experience the same thing you did to me and now my mission is accomplish" he clapped his hands together.

"I hope next time, you won't try to do something stupid" he inches closer.

"Because jawad abdallah is not someone to play with” he left leaving me stunned. 
Oh Allah, my plan failed. And how did he know that am scared of cockroach? All these thought vanish when i heard a loud thud. Bang!
