2020-05-27 23:12:03".....I want it again". Arfaat said smiling Wickedly.
Juwairiyyah jumped out of bed like a lioness. Arfaat was surprised as how quick she did it.
"What is it you want Yaa Arfaat?". Juwairiyyah asked fear building up in her.
"He bursted into laughter; calling me Yaa won't stop me from doing what I want to, snap out of it and spare me the riddle of calling me Yaa."
"Yaa Arfaat, dan Allah kayi haquri (please am sorry) please pity my poor soul. I'll die if you do it again". Said Juwairiyyah tears gushing out of her eyes.
Arfaat gave out a lazy smile and said___
"Saifa nayi (I must do it), spare me that pity face."
In the next one month, Juwairiyyah had known the difference between what she did and what she was experiencing right now. Cause Arfaat shows no mercy when it comes to Their matrimonial bed, not only that__ she cooks, wash and iron his cloths. What annoyed her the most is that no matter how she tries to tell someone at home, Arfaat had already warned her against telling anyone outside__else she'll face the consequences. He also didn't allow her back to school, and when her dad called to ask if she's going to school she said yes.
Arfaat had already made up his mind that he's going to ruin Juwairiyyah's life to the very core, next time she'll think twice before laying false accusations on an innocent human being. He promised to ruin her career by stopping her from going to school. And by the time he'll let her go, that's in the next two months the semester has ended. That means she'll have a lot of carry overs and a very bad GPA!
Juwairiyyah woke up today with the thirst of seeing her grandma, Even though, they weren't on good terms, Juwairiyyah still wish to see her. For that reason she hurried her house chores and called her grandma.
"Nayi fushi hajiya (I am angry Hajiya)" Juwairiyyah said as soon as Hajiya Azumi picked the call.
"Yar jikalle, how are you doing over there?"
"Fine grandma. How you all doing?"
"Doing good, just missing our PRICELESS JEWEL."
"If you do miss me as you say, then pay me a visit today please". Juwairiyyah pleaded.
"Sure dear. Arfaat just left not long ago begging me to come over and see you."
"Yaa Arfaat visited you guys?". Juwairiyyah asked surprised.
Hajiya Azumi gave out a heavy sigh before saying.
"Yes dear, he visits us everyday. Each day apologizing for what he did."
"Are you coming or not?". Juwairiyyah asked changing the topic.
"Sure, I'll be there in a jiffy."
*2 months later*
"I am sick" Juwairiyyah blurted.
"So? What do you want me to do? Stop the illness or take it away?"
"Take me to the hospital of course" she replied eyeing him.
"Your Dad will be the one to do that not me. Am taking you back tomorrow."
The next morning, Arfaat gave Juwairiyyah her divorce letter. Juwairiyyah's heart skipped a beat as she collected it. She didn't know why, but she was so sad, she felt like bursting into tears and telling Arfaat she's gonna live with him forever.
Arfaat drove her home. Bid her farewell and went home to his mom. Thinking of what he's gonna tell his mom to calm her down.
"Kaman ya ka saketa arfaat?(What do you mean you divorced her?) Are you nuts?" Mai kunu bellowed angrily.
"Mama, listen to m......"
"Shut up you fool! How dare you Arfaat? How could you stoop so low to divorcing your wife? That's a shameful act Arfaat. Am ashamed of you. I really am ashamed of you". Said mai kunu tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Mama lis....."
"I don't want to hear anything from you Arfaat, I don't want to."
*
As days went by, Juwairiyyah fell ill, so ill that whenever she eats; she throws it up. Her parents where worried especially Hajiya Azumi, who looked more concerned about Juwairiyyah's illness.
One faithful Wednesday morning, Alhaji Abbas and Hajiya Azumi took Juwairiyyah to the hospital. They didn't wait for too long before they were called in.
"Here are the test Alhaji" said the doctor.
"What's wrong with her doctor?". Asked Alhaji Abbas.
"Arrrmmm....well the test results says that she's 2 months pregnant!"

"Is that a yes?"Junayd asked smiling. Juwairiyyah was still silent, she sat still, tears rolling down her cheeks, her heart beats increased in pace, as if she ran for kilometers without stopping. She grew up with Junayd, shared a lot of things with him. Infact, she was already in love with him when he left, but now, she is nonplussed of her feelings towards him, more so; she's now a divorcée, will he still marry her that way?.My earliest memory has always been with yaa junayd, him bathing me, feeding, clothing and so on.She was so engrossed in her thoughts, when she felt yaa junayd's hand on mine,... I looked up at him, her eyes still moist from the tears she shed. "What is it?" He asked ca

"Yaa Junayd, I missed you so very much, hope you are back for good now?". Juwairiyyah asked still holding his hands. Junayd smiled, caressing Juwai's face. He can't express how happy he is to see her........"yes baby, am back"....he said, taking her hands to his lips and pressing a light kiss on them..."am not gonna leave you agaiin."Who the hell is this?, Arfaat is totallyspeechless, he stood there stunned, totally out of words. He turned and look at Alhaji Abbas, Hajiya Azumi and Hajiya Raliya who were smiling at them. "Welcome back son, or are you still not done looking at your sister ?". Asked Alhaji Abbas, standing up and opening his hands for a hug."O papy, I missed you so very much". He walked to his open arms, but then suddenly changed his direction and hugged Hajiya Raliya, who only sat on

Arfaat! What the hell are you talking about?". Mai kunu asked shocked....."Don't tell me you denied the baby is yours?" She asked again, as tears rolled down her cheeks. Alhaji Abbas, Hajiya Raliya and Hajiya Azumi all stood at the doorway, stunned and suprised at what Arfaat was saying. Alhaji Abbas was flabbergasted remembering all what he did to her, what if she died? Without him asking for her forgiveness and telling her how much he love her."Mama, lis.....". A very sound slap landed on Arfaat right cheek, and another again on his left. "How dare you Arfaat! How could you do a thing like that? What has gotten into you? Was this how I brought you up? Am disappointed in you Arfaat, I really am". Mai kunu said, shaking Arfaat as tears of sadness keep rolling down her cheeks...."she's gone now Arfaat, she's gone. Are you happy?" "Mama pleas..."

Juwairiyyah kept shaking the baby, shaking her so hard hoping the baby will make some sort of noise or just open her eyes. Fear crept into her heart, she laid down the baby back on her bed, and sat there, stunned, out of words, lost in deep thoughts."Mamanah! Mamanah...." Juwairiyyah choked, kneeling down by the bedside. Even in her ignorance of the death symptoms, the cold skin of her beloved daughter confirmed her fear. "Hajiya! Hajiya come to my aid! Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihir rajiuun". Juwairiyyah said in tears, she choked up again for the second time, before losing her consciousness. Just then Hajiya Azumi, Hajiya Raliya and Alhaji Abbas came into the room, all shocked at the scene they saw."What could have happened?". Hajiya Raliya asked in tears, feeling the baby's pulse.

"But he Arfaat is not her father".Juwairiyyah said anger building up in her, and a lot of hatred for Arfaat building more and more in her. She held the baby so tight to her, letting her feel her warmness. She just couldn't help it, and tears rolled down her cheeks, as tears roll down juwairiyyah only shook her head in despair. Wishing she had never came across a being like Arfaat. Hajiya Azumi stood at the doorway, looking at them both and wondering what is really going on between them both. She walked passed Arfaat who still sat in a one sitter, doing nothing but thinking of the best way to bring Juwairiyyah back to him."Let me have the baby Juwai". Hajiya Azumi said stretching her hands to the reach of juwairiyyah. "It seems like you guys have a lot to talk about, I'll take the baby with me so that you can talk peacefully. Am very sure something is wrong with the both of you." &nbs

"Juwai!!!" Arfaat shouted shaking her so hard. "Juwai, Juwai don't do this to me. We have a future ahead of us, we have a daughter now....please don't do this!" Arfaat said breaking into tears. "What happened to my daughter? Don't tell me she's dead doctor". Alhaji Abbas said trying to free Juwai from Arfaat's grip. "We need some time alone with her please. You all should go out". The doctor said addressing Arfaat and Alhaji Abbas."Doctor, I want to stay. I have to stay" Arfaat said still holding Juwairiyyah tight in his hands. "She's bleeding alot doctor, we have to act fast". Said one of the nurses."This time around, you are getting out of here!"* It's been three hours, there is still no news about juwairiyyah, none of the doctors and nurses attending to her came out. Arfaat is beginning to loose his senses, he didn't even care to look a
