I needed to know about Rayyana and fast. 

How was mother involved? 

Why was Uncle Amir in the car with Dabir? 

But right now was getting to Dabir. "Any luck?" I asked matt who shook his head and cut the call "No ma'am her cell is switched off." I tutted and decided to try later when we got to Dabir's room. 

"This elevator is really slow." Eshan mumbled staring at his watch. I sighed when the doors finally opened and we were directed to Dabir's room, however before we could enter a nurse walked out and paled when she saw us. "Ms. Martin! is your mother around here?" I shook my head and adjusted my bag. "No, why?" 

She bit her lip "We tried contacting you several times it just...Mr. Martin he has...he..." She couldn't stop stuttering which was so annoying. "He what? Get on with it!" Humna said fidgeting with her hand. "Someone pulled Mr. Martin's plug." 

Mother still wouldn't pick up. No matter how many times we tried to call her, she just wouldn't answer. Matt had gone outside to see where she was while everyone of us were sitting with our heads hung low. 

Even if Dabir only had 3/5 kids that were actually his he was our father. He had treated us differently, but he was still there. And he's a 100 times better then Zayan. Maria had came rushing over as soon as I called her, tears were streaming down her face as she walked out of Dabirs room. 

"Any sign of Mrs. Martin?" She asked us while wiping away her tears. Humna shook her head "No, she still won't answer any of our calls." It was worrying, our father was dead and now our mother may be missing.

Suddenly, the doors opened and Matt walked in without mother behind him "Matt, where is she?" Zain asked getting up immediately. Matt clenched his jaw before saying "Ma'am is...Shes been in an accident. She is in the other room." 

Cries were heard around us and I numbly followed my siblings as we all ran to the other room In hopes that we hadn't become orphans.

Zaara quietly closed the door as she left me and Matt behind. I didn't know who had pulled his plug, but whoever it is was lucky enough to escape for now. Matt's body language was off like he wanted to cry. 

"What did she do?" I asked him gently. He turned to me and said "She's pretending to have been in an accident. I don't know why she told me to say all that when the kids are going through so much already." 

I clenched my jaw and nodded "I know why that bitch is doing all this. She just can not handle Rayyana being the popular one. She cant handle being the last one. Someone needs to stop her." Matt sighed "We cant do that Maria you know that. Mrs. Martin-" I cut him off "Is nothing but a lying scumbag. We are already being suspected, and I have a murder on my hands now! I cant let Amir go through this, and the kids either Matt! I have to do something!" 

Matt clenched his jaw, obviously thinking what I'm thinking. "You're going to do it?" Matt asked softly, almost afraid of the answer. I took a deep breath and said "Yes. I am." 

After I tell the kids, I may die. 

I may lose my job.

But I cant see those kids suffer any longer. 

Tomorrow, I am telling the kids the story of Rayyana.
