My Priceless Jewel - Episode 10

 

".......please lemme amend for my mistake". Arfaat said stepping into the living room.

   Juwairiyyah gave him a  pointed look, what the hell is Arfaat thinking? Is he planning something bad against her? O God! Why did she even start all this drama? Who knows what he has in store for her now.

       "Juwai, this was a hard decision for us all, but its for the best for us. And am very sure everything will go as planned, please let's do it" . Pleaded her dad.

"I was against it in the first place angel, but i had to agree to it cuz we don't have a way out of this mess. This brat has already ruined us!". Said her mom.

     "Am so sorry ma, forgive my stupid behaviour. I promise you I'll amend to my mistakes and will keep my promise by divorcing juwairiyyah exactly three months after our marraige. Have faith in me". Said Arfaat.

     "Noo dad! i don't want to. I prefer living this way than marrying him. Please don't do this to me". Juwairiyyah said in tears.

"You are going to do it juwairiyyah! Yar tselen uwa kawai. Ana neman hanyan kubuta kina botsarema mutane

. Arfaat, even though i hate you now, but you are our only hope. Take good care of her. May be I'll hate you less that way". Said hajiya Azumi also in tears.

Juwairiyyah can't seem to find a way out of this mess, the only thing she has to do now is expect the qorst from arfaat. And she's also gonna find something to do to hurt him too. A smile suddenly beamed at her face with the thought of what she's gonna do to arfaat. I just can't seem to understand what they both are planning to do to each other!
    
      *ONE MONTH LATER*

All families from both side are busy with the wedding stuff. Tomorrow is the d-day! The day Arfaat  is going to be the legal husband of Juwairiyyah! How amazing!, i just can't wait to see how they are both gonna live under thesame roof.

That same day, later during the day, arfaat came to visit juwairiyyah. It has already became his daily routine to visit Juwairiyyah every single day since after that incident. He sat down in the guest room waiting for her.

He didn't wait for long when he heard juwairiytah's footsteps approaching the room in her cat walking manner. He looked at her from head to toe. Admiring how beautiful she looks in her navy blue ankara wit red strips. He noticed this days that she's more beautiful, not knowing that "aikin hajiya azumi ne na gyarata in and out". She didn't apply any make up which made her look cute in a super amazing way.

     "O come on please, stop looking at me that way. I know i look beautiful and i don't really like the idea of garbages like you looking at me that way". Juwairiyyah said settling down on one of the chairs in the living room.

Arfaat lay out a lazy smile before saying.

   "You are not that beautiful Juwai. You even disgust me, and for your information i wasn't admiring your beauty, i was only looking at how silly and crazy you could be!" He replied smiling. 

Those words hit Juwairiyyah like a bomb! This guy has guts, but anyway it'll soon be over and She'll make him pay More and more with each passing day!

   "Arfaat kenan, don't try my patience. Its good i have something to look at, that's great and good too. Say what you have to say, cuz as you can see am very busy".

      "Just wanted to tell you to start crying before you are taken to my house as my legal wife. Cuz am telling you juwairiyyah, tomorrow is gonna be the worst day in your life. It's a promise am gonna keep babe. Trust me."

  "Did i hear you right? Did you just say your house? Lol, you are very funny arfaat. That house belongs to my dad not you. Aren't you even ashamed of living in my dad's house?"

"Well that's what made it more amazing, cuz nothing will please me More than seeing you suffer in your Father's house. Have a nice day. And see you later at the Kamu event wife to be."

"Hold your head up and smile, you coward," Arfaat growled when Juwairiyyah hung back at the top of the steps leading to Sophie's imposing home where the wedding traditional party will take place. His hand gripped her waist so tightly she gasped, and she felt like jerking away and fleeing back down the steps to the waiting car. There was a long line of cars in the street outside Sophie's home; it was obvious the ton had gathered to see the grand wedding of Alhaji Abbas daughter to a poor mechanic.

If not for the cold dread in the pit of her stomach, Juwairiyyah might enjoyed the sight of her _wedding day_. As it was, she felt only a shivering apprehension at Arfaat cold rage and implacable face. They'd ridden from her fathers house on GRA in stark silence. Except for a brief moment when she had balked at getting into the car, he had not spoken to her until now. "I don't advise you to try anything you may regret, my Lily."

Now they were there, and she was dreading the leering faces inside. His hateful voice and snarled words gave her enough courage to pause in the doorway, where she could see the blaze of light and hear the deafening clamor of voices. They waited, and she could feel the eyes of those behind them. Arfaat looked as handsome as always in his black and white evening clothes, his black hair reflecting the gleam from flickering gaslamps. Her red silk gown made a dramatic contrast, and that alone would have drawn stares if they had not been who they were.

Juwairiyyah heard vague whispers on the steps behind them, and held her dark head even higher.

"They say, my dear, that she was fond of disgracing any poor man who shows interest in her. I wonder how she ended up getting married to a mechanic...."

"Thats what i also heard. She thinks because she's beautiful and her dad is rich, she has the rights to trample on her suitors. I just hope the handsome man here get to teach her a lesson to remember."

"Oh yes!" Arfaat spoke in her ears, tightening his hold on her waist for the second time "Thats just what I'm gonna do, trust me Juwairiyyah, you'll regret ever saying i _Raped_ you, I'll make you regret that, I'll make you regret all those times you've trampled men who claim they love you. I'll make you regret everything."

She shuddered, almost losing her balance when he held her tight again. That alone, caught the attention of others who weren't watching as cheers and claps erupted from the large hall. Arfaat made it look so real and romantic which made it impossible for the camera men not to capture the tom and his jerry!
Holding her hand and guiding her to their table, Arfaat made sure he smiled, showing off the facade of a caring husband. And as they sat down, Juwairiyyah recalled every single thing she did before the coming of this day, and there and then.....she started regretting her actions.

Now, no one can save her from Arfaat's wrath and anger!

*
The wedding was solemnized the next day, and now; they both belong to each other.

Juwairiyyah was conveyed to her house at around 9:16pm on saturday.

. That was after she received heart-touching lectures from her parents. She cried a lot, like she's gonna cry all her tears out.

Only her friends went with her, and that broke her heart the more. She was angry at Arfaat for not allowing any of his friends to pick her up, rather; she was conveyed by her family only.

As soon as the friends left, Arfaat came into the room holding two black nylon bags. One consist of meat and the other drinks.

"Bride, bride. Juwairiyyah Abbas my wife. How do you feel being Mrs Arfaat?"

  "Mtssswwww! Don't you dare call me that name again you fool!" She bellowed angrily.

      "Tst..tst..tst....too bad babe. Anyway don't worry i have something for you. I want you to give me what is legally mine Juwai". Arfaat said with a wicked smile on his face.

"What are you talking about?". Asked Juwairiyyah shocked.

    "O come on babe, its either we do it in a matured way, or i rape you the way you said. Which one do you prefer?"
