It wasn't as though there's anything she can do about it. She had faked her pregnancy and still haven't found a way out. What was she to do now? What plan should she put up? Amirah thought all alone as she sat by her bed. She has finally succeeded in making Aysha's life a living hell. She's also quiet confident that Aysha will never give birth___her chances of getting pregnant are very low and she'll make sure Fadeel won't visit her talk more of being with her all alone.

But what of her own case? She ought to be four months along by now, but still haven't found a way out. Maybe she shouldn't have lied in the first place and wait for the right time when she'll get pregnant for real . But how long will that be? How long?
The burning pitch smokey scent invaded her nose and she started coughing loudly. What the hell is burning? She thought as she made her way outside her room to the kitchen. She found the lid of the pot kept beside it as whatever it is Aysha was cooking kept burning. She quickly turned the gas off and went in search for Aysha.

"Aysha Ibrahim! Aysha Ibrahim!! Where the flipping hell are you?" She yelled as she banged Aysha's room so hard "do you want to kill me and my baby? God is with us o my dear___you won't have the pleasure of seeing me losing it, trust me" she added as she stepped into the room.

Aysha came out of the bathroom looking pale and also dizzy at thesame time. She held the wall by her side and inhaled deeply.

"What was that stunt you pulled you stupid woman?" Amirah asked angrily.

"I felt like throwing up then that was why i left the kitchen in a hurry

. I'll get the food done in no time" Aysha replied moving away from Amirah and making her way towards the kitchen.

Amirah pulled her back by her neck and pushed her "when are you planning to leave this house? When? Can't you understand that you aren't loved and needed here? When will you finally realize that your living in this house is worthless. You're nothing but a piece of garbage to both i and Fadeel. Oh, guess you never knew he told me how bad you are in bed? My God Aysha, you're so doomed!"

Aysha clenched her fist tightly. She had promised herself not to fight with Amirah no matter what happens. She won't be one of those wives who fight their co wives___she believes firmly in the saying "Her patience__her virtue."
"What do you want? Have i not left him for you? What more do you want?" She asked calmly.

"I want you to leave this house. I want you to get out of our lives__leave us alone Aysha. Both i and Fadeel don't need you."

"Oh really?" Aysha asked raising one of her brows "i thought i was more like of a housemaid here. Do you think you can handle all the chores with your 'baby'?" She said the last word lightly, sarcasm filled in her voice.

"What do you mean?" Amirah asked in irritation.

"Oh Mrs Fadeel___i know very well you're faking your pregnancy." Aysha said putting her hand on Amirah's stomach.

Amirah's heart jacked loudly against her ribcage. How did Aysha know? She wondered.

"What the hell do you mean? Are you crazy or what? Or are you just jealous you couldn't get pregnant in the three years of your marriage? Awwwn___you're so pathetic friend."

Aysha smiled, praying so hard that her hunch becomes true. If all the signs she's seeing now are that of a pregnant woman, then she's sure she is pregnant. So, instead of getting angry like she always did when the issue was brought up___she simply smiled and tapped Amirah's shoulder and smiled. "We'll both see who is pathetic real soon my dear." And she left, clearly pleased with herself.

She has been keeping a close eye on Amirah ever since she said she's pregnant. She only got to know that Amirah was lying last four days when she overheard her talking to her new found friend about it. She was surprised at how corny Amirah is and thanked God that no matter what she did to her, she still stayed..

She looked at the three pregnancy tube in her hand as tears rolled down her cheeks. She is pregnant! She is pregnant! She is pregnant!!!

She went down on her knees and cried her eyes out. So she'll one day be pregnant? She'll one day have her own baby. Never had she thought a day like this will come. But she's more than happy the day came.

She quickly picked up her phone and dialed her mom's number. The phone rang and rang but still wasn't picked. She called for the third time and the call was still not picked. Having no other option, she dialed Fa'izah's number to share the good news.

"Allah has and will always be with us Babe, indeed___a prayer is never a waste, no matter how long it takes for it to be granted." Aysha said as soon as Fa'izah picked up.

"Indeed dear sister. Now share the good news."

"I am pregnant." She said in tears "I am pregnant sister, am going to be a mom soon."

"What?" Fa'izah asked, her voice shaking slightly "are you serious Aysha?"

"Of course. I am pregnant. I am pregnant!" She yelled happily.

"Alhamdulillah (praise be to God)" Fa'izah said blowing her nose "Have you told Yaya Fadeel the good news?"

"No, not yet. I'll do that as soon as he comes back."

"Congratulations Babe.

. I'll come see you tomorrow__it's already kind of late right now."

"Thanks babe. Will be expecting Ya."

 


Amirah stepped away from the door shaking. It can't be__it can't possibly be. How can Aysha be pregnant? How? She quickly went to her room and called her new friend. Halima.

"The bitch is pregnant!" She hissed into the phone angrily.

"What? You gotta be kidding me. Didn't you make sure she took the pills that'll destroy her womb completely?"

"Ofcourse i did. I don't know what happened or how. When did that sneaky fool even slept with her without my knowledge?"

"Forget about that. We need to get rid of that pregnancy soon!"

"We sure do."

"I'll come in tomorrow and see what we can do. For now make sure she doesn't get near Fadeel."

"I will. Thanks dear."
