Trapped In a Jungle - Episode 15

 

NABEEL

Yaa subhannallah! This is the worst day of my life. What is fareedah doing here with dad and mom? Wait...plus my inlaws too and hamma Naseer. I can see he's boiling with rage.

What is going on here? I asked myself. I stood up quickly and walked over to them, my heart beat increasing ever single second like its gonna rip out of my body.

"Abba" i called as i lowered my body down as a sign of respect "Yallijam" i greated them both.

Only husnah's dad answered. Abbah only looked at me and then shakes his head.

  "Where is she?" Abba asked slowly.

I turned without answering him and walked to husnah's room . My heart beating furiously. I really need something to cover up for this. How can i tell them i raped my wife? How? No way.

I salaamed at the doorstep before going in. Husnah was still crying, buried in Amrah's hands.

"Husnah" husnah's mom called sitting beside. Husnah broke her hug with amrah and hugged her mom so tight. I have to tell them what happened, i just have to.

"What's wrong here?" Abbah asked, focusing his gaze on fareedah.

"I..i..i didn't know how it happened, but i begged him not to do it yaqi ji. I begged and begged him Abbah, but to no avail

. I see husnah as a lil sis and i respect the fact that you asked him to marry her. But that doesn't justify what he did right?" She asked looking at Ammi. God! What is fareedah doing? I wondered.

"Can someone tell me what the hell happened!" Hamma naseer asked angrily.

Lord! Fear crept into my soul. I know that today my mom will have to born a new Nabeel. I'm very sure if hamma Naseer got to know what i did...mehn! I'm finished.

"Why are you all silent" he barked. I looked at fareedah, she was crying...crying like she was the one i raped not husnah. Lord! What have i gotten myself into?

"He..he...he O God! Why don't you just tell them the stupidity you did Nabeel!" Fareedah sreamed.

I felt the blood in my face draining. How could fareedah do this? I was hoping she'll be the one to cover up for me. Did she know what happened? How did she even know we are at the hospital?. I felt strong arms grabbing me by the my neck. Mehn! I felt my breath chocking off, O Allah see me through.

"What the hell did you to do her?" Hamma Naseer asked tightening his grip.

"I...i...i" i tried speaking but i couldn't. Breathing is becoming hard to me.

"Let him go Naseer" husnah's dad spoke up for the first time we came into the room.

"Yana neman raina mana hankali ne Abbah. speak up my friend" he barked not letting me go.

"Let him go please" i heard husnah's voice saying "he's not to be blamed. Please let him go...don't hurt him". She added, looking straight into my eyes. That pain in her eyes will forever remain in my heart.

Hamma Naseer lessened his grip and turned to husnah. His face all red. one thing about a fair guy kenan...as soon as they are angry, they all turn red.

"What happened lil sis? Why are you here? Speak up please".

Husnah looked at me again and tears rolled down her cheeks again. I also felt tears swelling up in my eyes. I drove in the courage to just confess for my stupid and reckless behavior. I'm the most stupid and good for nothing husband.

"I..i, please you all have to forgive me" i blurted. I wanted saying i raped husnah but the words won't slip outta my mouth. How can i look into her parents eyes and also mine and tell them i raped my wife? How?.

"Wai munyi kamada sa'oinka ne Nabeel?" Dad barked at me angrily.

"I had a miscarriage" husnah blurted out before I could even reply. I saw Amrah and Fareedah both looking at her shocked.

"I had a miscarriage 2days back. I begged him not to call any of you because I don't want you all to get worried" she added.

I looked at her shocked, and then a strange feeling crept into my heart. Husnah is covering up for my mistake. Why?.

"He's afraid because he's blaming himself, thinking i had the miscarriage because of him" she said  again.

"There must be a reason he's blaming himself" Hamma Naseer said "open up and talk to us husnah, you have no one better than us".

"We had a fight" she began "I told him I'm not ready to give birth when i realised i was pregnant. I brought pills and showed them to him, telling him I'll take them because i don't want to give birth anytime soon" she added.

"You're not ready to give birth?" Her mom asked angrily slapping her on her right cheek. "You fool! Fareedah Is looking for a baby and God blessed you with one kice bakya so? hakkunah janhara bellle warso? (Is that the training i gave you?)".

My heart was heavy. Why was husnah doing this? Why protecting me and getting herself into trouble. I spoke up, trying to tell them the truth.

"That's not what..." Husnah's voice cut me off.

"Just let me talk please!" She snapped at me. Warning me with her eyes not to tell them what happen.

"No husnah!, I'll tell them exactly what happen. They don't have to blame you for my mistakes" i said firmly.

"No..."

"What actually happened as she said was true" i cut her off. "I saw the pills and told her not to do it. And she listened to me, i was glad she listened to me but deep inside i know I'm not going to love that child so much because our marriage was an arranged marriage. It took me a month before i made up my mind that she can abort the pregnancy. But by then husnah is already inlove with the baby. I told her to abort it and she said no. I then threatened to divorce her. That's how we got into a terrible fight, and as she was trying to get away..she slipped and fall by the kitchen cabinet, hitting her tommy so hard" i ended sadly. God! How did i come up with something like this?? I don't even know.

"You both are stupid" Husnah's dad shouted. "Are we some kind of joke to you? We are your parents and you guys are playing with us! In bakwa son auren sai ku rabu mana kawai!" She barked.

"No dad" husnah said in tears. "We admit that we made a mistake but in shaa Allah we'll adjust. I love my husband" she said slowly.
Those last four words of hers were the very best. She just said them, even if she don't mean them, I'm glad she said them.

"I made a mistake Abbah. But in shaa Allah something like this won't happen again" I said, apologetically.

"I was against this marriage right from the start. I promise you Nabeel, if you hurt her again I'll break you into pieces" hamma naseer said angrily.

HUSNAH

I don't trust Amrah, not even a little. I didn't know how i ended up telling her nabeel raped me, maybe because i desperately need someone to talk to that's why. I then saw her making strange moves, going out and coming back into the room. Engrossed with her phone. And i kept wondering what she's upto.

The moment i saw fareedah, my parent's and Nabeel's parent, i understood what happen. Amrah told fareedah, and then she came over with our parents. That made mw believe that it wasn't a mistake... It was really Amrah i saw coming out of fareedah's part the other day. This two must be upto something, and am not giving them the pleasure.

I quickly made up my mind that through thick or thin...Nabeel will be mine, and Fareedah will face my own wrath. The only problem I'm facing now is that I'm very, i mean very afraid of Nabeel. I'll learn to let it subside with time amma.

I spent three days in the hospital, before i was finally discharged. And all those days, Nabeel never left my side.  Fareedah never visited again since that day, and so Amrah. I now realized Amrah never loved me, or maybe she did love me but now is envious of me.

1 week later

It was a perfect day, cloudless and warm, and the singing breeze carried a tantalizing mixture of scents across the garden. I had spread out a tablecloth on a grassy area near the swimming pool, happily munching on an egg salad sandwich.

I always isolate myself here cuz i don't like seeing Nabeel nor talking to him. Since after I've been discharged from the hospital, i didn't say a single word to him. What will i say? Thou he always came by, sit and talk endlessly. And I'll only sit inches away from him praying silently that he's not going to attack me again.

I didn't hear footsteps, i only felt his hands around my tommy. Lord! My body started shaking and i couldn't even move an inch.

. Please help me O Allah!.

I didn't even know when i started crying, but I'm way too afraid.

"Let go of me!" I jacked, trying to free myself from his hold.

"Listen to me please My Asma'" i heard his voice begging. And before i could reply, i heard fareedah's voice calling him. I didn't know when i quickly made a U-turn and smashed my lips against his. 

He was shock...and so was i! where is that fear i have for him? How did i bring my self kissing him myself?. Maybe because i want show Fareedah who the boss is around here.

"I missed you so much teddy bear. How's work? I know you must be tired right? Come on, let's go inside...I'll wash you up, feed you and then give you a touchy massage. Like it?" I asked after breaking our lips and then i winked at him.

"Nabeel" fareedah called again angrily.

I cupped his face in my hands, not even allowing him to turn and look at her. We locked our eyes and i felt sparks of electric shock in my body. Nabeel has one of most beautiful eyes I've ever seen.

"You take my breath away Asma', you drive me insane. I'm crazy about you" nabeel said, caressing my lips with his thumbs.

I didn't know when a smile crept across my lips when i saw fareedah running off, crying.

And as soon as she was out of sight, i quickly stood up and also ran to my part. Atleast...i made her sad, and that made me happy.

Whoaa...
