Trapped In a Jungle - Episode 17

 

HUSNAH

Life, its not always about playing games and hurting others. I think its time i make a move and show fareedah what it really means to be a wife.

I was sitting a couch, my legs crossed as i sip my coffee. I was lost in thought, if only there is a way for me to get out of this marriage.... I'll gladly go with it . I heard a knock and before i could answer it, Fareedah barged in. A smile across her face.

"Amarya" she called as she sat beside me "how you doing? Ya jiki?".

"Do i look like someone who's sick?" I asked curtly.

She looked at me and smirked "you don't have to say it. Its all over your face. How does it feel to be raped by your own husband husnah?"

Damn! I felt like squeezing her right here that very instant. But then, i controlled myself and then chuckled.

"Well" i began, looking at her closely, a smile never leaving my face "with us sweet ladies, with beautiful face and nice body figure, sweet voice...caring, honest, loving, amazing and talented in all possible ways to treat our husbands....ladies like us never loose a guy's attention. A lady like me" i said as i stood up, swaying side by side, turning around "is always lovable. A guy's wish

. Nabeel couldn't control his emotions for me, uggghhhh; i forgot to meantion that he always complain about your figure, and that tummy of yours, it ain't cool for a lady to have a figure like that. Learn to maintain your figure please".

Fareedah's face was all red, abunka da farar mace. She was breathing heavily. "He never raped me, that's just how much he loves me" she said slowly.

I laughed, mehn! Why am i enjoying this show? Its kinda cool.

"Point of correction miss fareedah. That's just how much he hates you. And please, go back and tell whoever the hell told you he raped me that he/she is lying. We shared something mutual, something i bet you never had with him" i said dreamily, walking over the window "It'll forever be embedded in my heart. I mean it was colorful, I'm sure teddy bear has never tried that out with you. HE'S MINE AND MINE ALONE FAREEDAH" i said, turning over to look at her, i then smiled before i added "weren't those your words baby?"

"That's a lie husnah!" Fareedah shouted, standing on her feet angrily "Nabeel will never love any lady other than me. He's mine alone!".

"O Lord!" I said laughing, I'm really pissing the poor woman off. She deserve it sha!. "He's already in love with me. Madly in love with me. I can ask him if you want me to in your presence" i said smiling.

"You are a pity husnah, you don't even know those who truly love you. I can show them to you. I bet you'll be surprise" fareedah said.

I giggled, damn whatever the hell you are planning fareedah. "I'll really love that elder sis".

I took my veil and trailed behind her. "Let's use your car" she said as soon as we were at the parking lot.

"Ouuppss....why don't we use yours?" I said.

"I'm the one helping you so i set the rules" she barked at me.

"Easy miss, don't you dare, i mean don't you dare shout at me again. I never begged you to help you volunteered willingly. Watch how you speak to me".

As i was speaking, my eyes caught up with nabeel walking over to us. Time to work out something cool.

Fareedah saw him and squirmed and then hugged him by the torso. Time for action.

I quickly went down to the floor, holding onto my stomach. And then, i began crying.

"_ouch! Lord....my tommy teddy bear" i yelled. He quickly shoved fareedah aside and ran over to me.

"Hey, are you okay?" He asked looking worried.

"No, take me in please" i said, bitting my bottom lip as if i am in so much pain. He picked me up, bridal style and walked up to my front door.

I looked at fareedah who stood shocked and angry and then smiled slowly. As soon as we were inside, nabeel dropped me on a couch and touched my head with the back of his palm.

"Are you sick?" He asked in a whisper. I opened my mouth to answer but then my eyes caught up fareedah's eyes. She had opened the door half way and was looking at us. 

Now, why don't i give her a memory to remember? Gonna be fun right?.

I sat up and wrapped my arms around his neck, drawing him closer to me.

"Teddy bear" i called slowly, in a voice i never knew i had. Slowly tracing my thumb on his temple "Do you love me?"

He looked at me eyes wide open. He was surprised and so am i. How could i ask him something like this!.

"I...i..." He kept quite for a while and then gave me an answer.

"I might have been stupid enough to think i won't fall for you. Stupid enough to make fareedah believe that she's the only woman I'll ever love, I'm not saying i don't love her Asmaa', but i love you too....way too much"  he said slowly.

I smiled and squeezed in hands in mine the more "how much do you love me? Say it, i wanna know teddy bear". I said sweetly. He's already wrapped around my finger, there's no way he can resist me.

"I love you with every fibre of my being, my life is incomplete without you Asmaa'. I know I've wronged you alot, but believe me when i say you are now the source of my happiness, my world, the air i breath. With each passing day, i fall over and over in love with you. If only there are words to describe my feelings for you Asmaa', then I'll use them. But my love for you can't be expressed by mere words"  he said, as he made his way to kiss my lips, but i shut him up.

He looked at me straight in the eyes and my heart warmed up. He has the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen.

"I love you Asmaa'" i heard him say.

"I love you just like a mom loves her kid, i love you as much as the veins in my body. water, blood, air can't be measured, and so it is....my love for you can't be measured Asmaa'. Its buried deep in my heart, my heart always yern for you, my arms always crave for your body wrapped in them, lips craved for yours...and there is no way i can deny the fact that i love you morethan anything in this world. Believe me when i say I've never opened up my heart this much to someone, no; scratch that, this is the first time a lady is turning me hell nuts. please accept my love Asmaa', please".

I smiled mischievously when i saw fareedah leaving, tears all over her face. 

Mission accomplished!.

I removed my hands from neck and slowly stepped out of his little world. I smiled and said.

"Awwwnn....what a nice story Nabeel. You really can tell a story, bravo". I said, clapping my hands.

Nabeel looked at me. I bet he's wondering what I'm talking about. 

"Hey! Don't tell me you expect me to believe those words?" I asked him

"I said those words from my depth of my heart Asmaa', i deserve a chance from you. Please trust me and give me  chance to change and settle everything". He said sadly.

"You should go over to your wife. Cuz nikam, you have nothing, i mean absolutely nothing to tell me. Am done with you....for good Nabeel". i said and left for my room, leaving him standing there jaw dropping.

"Amaal!" I yelled "can you please make it snappy!"

"I'm coming" Amaal yelled back "just a minute sis".

I hissed and sat down by the dining table, going through my phone and checking my WhatsApp messages.

I was dressed in a pink paper lace. And today, i found myself applying make up. Lord! I know i looked beautiful.

Amaal came out a few minutes later, dressed in an ash ankara with touches of yellow and pink.

"Inyeee! Kaga yarinyan mama.

Read " My Mistake " by the same author ( Murjanatu Alkali )

. You look cute lil sis" i said. Awwwnnn..Amaal is just too sweet.

"Yea, i know i look cute. I'm also beautiful" she said, swaying from side to side.

"Always full of yourself, let's go miss" i said grabbing her hands.

I drove, the atmosphere in the car was really cool. I then played a song by kelly and we sang along.

"I got issues just like you got issues"
"I been hurt, i saw the scar tissue"
"If i show you, would you run away?"
"Do i gotta hide em for you to wanna stay?"
"Do i, even need you? Should i leave you?"
"Do i, gotta be you, just to please you?"
"Do i, say I'm all good when i bleed you?"
"Through my, heart? Quit tearin mine apart".

"Isn't this song kinda sad?" Amaal asked as i pulled the car to a halt by the parking lot.

"Well, kinda" i said coming out of my car.

And then, Amarah!.

I saw fahad's car leaving so i bet he dropped her off.

"Hey best friend" she telled, waving at me.

"Hi" i waved back. I really really don't feel like talking to her. All the same, we had a good day.

*

Its been three days since i set my eyes on Nabeel. I don't know why, but i have this odd feeling like I'm missing him. Damn! So annoying.

I was sitting by my dressing mirror, doing nothing but starring at myself.

Just then, my phone Buzzed, a message alert. I Checked it and its was an MMS. Lol! Who could be sending me an MMS when WhatsApp is available?. I shrugged and checked the message.

Its from a private number.

Subhannallah! I felt my heart breaking up into pieces for the third time.

Yaa Allah! I hope this is not true
