Comments for an EARLY Update

This chapter is dedicated to a lovely person heartofemotion Yeah me! Since, I can't tag this account, allow me to tag my old account. The account that pushed me through my limits and made me the writer, I am today.

Grab your tissues 

Are you ready?

"What's it Abaan?" Maryam asked, impatiently, all she wanted to hear him said are the three magical words.

Abaan sighed. "This is hard for me as well. Maira I want you to trust me,".

"Abaan, you are scaring me?"

"We can't keep being friends." Abaan finally let it out.

Maryam smiled, in just a few seconds for her world to change. A few seconds for her to be over the moon, all she wanted is to hear it came out from him.

"We can't see each other from now on,"

Hearing what came out of his lips made her world stopped for a second. She doesn't seem to understand what he is saying though she saw his lips moving. Did he said they can't see each other from now on? But why? What had she done? What did she do, for him to make such a decision? Is he uncomfortable with her feelings toward him? There are her feelings, not his, she can control them. She doesn't care if she can't be his even though it'll kill her to see him with someone else. Why not seeing him is something she can't do. Especially if it's for a long time. Forever. Forever is a long time.

"From now on we can't see each other. We can't hear from each other, even through the phone...," Abaan continued as Maryam cut him midway.

"Abaan are you saying we have to forget about each other's existence? How am I supposed to do that? How am I supposed to forget that you exist? I can't do that. Abaan... Jalal Muazam have I done something to you? Have you heard something... something about me?" Maryam asked her voice cracking, forcing back her tears. She hopes that all this is a dream,

She will wake up and everything will be alright, she's in a dream world now, no not a dream, a nightmare, because dreams are for happiness and what she's feeling now is terrible, like darkness has engulfed her and she can't seem to see the light; and it hurt terribly.

While Uzair and Inaaya are in the kitchen. Inaaya said to him. "Let's go and check on them,".

"Ke kin fiya gulma (You like gossiping)," replied Uzair.

"Naji, Bani kade bace. Zauna a nan (I hear, I'm not the only one. Stay here),".

Uzair followed behind her. "Ba abinda nake nufi bane (That's not what I mean)".

"You haven't done anything, Maryam, I just hope you will understand,".

"What should I understand, Abaan? Have you heard something about me? Do you believe in them?".

"No, I don't believe in any of them. Maryam, I believe in you more than myself. I know you are a good person... Don't hate me for this,".

He stood and walked out of the living room, heading to his car, Uzair followed behind him. "Abaan! Abaan!"

Inaaya sat on the sofa. Tears streamed down Maryam's cheeks in hot, salty streaks. The pain in her heart is too much for her to bear, why? Why did she fall in love with him? Love has never been her life, but falling in love with Abaan became her life, her world and now her world is crumbling down.

Why did she have to come and meet him, if she didn't come this won't be happening. But she's enough and complete even without him, she is enough just the way she's and she will create her world again. 

"I don't know what I have done?" She cried, devouring Inaaya in a hard hug.

"Abaan! Abaan!".

Abaan turned and looked at Uzair, his face was drawn and eyes red-rimmed, seeing him in distress Uzair asked.

"Can you explain what just happened? This is not what you were planning to tell her, what made you take such a step? Maybe, you are hearing things about her from her father's family, whatever it is you heard, it's not true...,"

"I know, I can tell you that I trust Maryam more than anyone, I believe in her innocence... You won't understand," Abaan said, and slid into his car, driving off.

The gateman opened the gate, and Maryam drove into the house, she parked her car where she always parked it. She wiped her tears not wanting her mother to notice anything. She pulled the mirror and see her eyes have become red-rimmed and swollen from tears.

She still can't believe what Abaan said to her. But she'll do as he wishes even though she knows it'll hurt her to the core.

Maryam smiled reminding herself she has always been a strong woman. She won't allow anyone to break her apart. She'll rebuild her castle and become her queen once again_ who doesn't need a king.

Hajiya Binta is sitting in the living room with the TV on. Holding her phone scrolling through her Facebook page.

The door opened and Maryam walked inside. "Sannun da gida,"

"Yauwa sannu, an dawo? (Thank you, have you come back?)".

"Yes Mummy, let me go inside," Maryam said and walked at a fast pace. She entered her room and locked the door, falling to the floor leaning her back to the door, and holding her knee, as tears flew from her eyes. "Why Abaan? Why did you hurt me so much? If I tell you how much I love you, would you stay with me? You'll never know my feelings for you,".

Maryam took out her phone from her handbag and went to her contact, and deleted Abaan's number even though knowing she has the number in her mind... and heart.

Hajiya Binta walked inside her daughter's room and saw Maryam has covered herself with her blanket, from head to toe.

Maryam always covered her body with a blanket even in hot weather but not her whole body.

"Uwata, yar mummy, in this hot weather you are covered in a blanket?". Hajiya Binta took off the blanket from Maryam's face and touched her neck. "Yana ji jikin ki da zafi (why is your body hot?)".

"Mummy, ciwon mara nake, but I've taken my medicine (Mummy, I'm having menstrual pain, but I've taken my medicine),".

"Basan Karya, it's hardly you've fever when you're having your period. With your body temperature right now, I know is a fever. And last night I woke up to have water, on my way to the kitchen I saw your light on. I open your door a little I saw you praying and tears flowing from your eyes. Don't you lie to me Maryam; I'm your mother. What happened?".

Maryam sat up, leaning on her pillow. Hajiya Binta sat on the bed. Maryam engulfed her in a tight needed hug, hot tears streaming down her red cheeks. "Mummy, Abaan said that he doesn't want to ever see me again. I don't know what I did to him, I can't think of anything I did to him. Mummy. I've no idea what to do. I can't live without him,".

Abaan, just break my heart into tiny pieces, so many pieces can't even be found for it to be mended. 😭😭😭

But what made Abaan take such a decision, I thought he has feelings for his Maira, Am I wrong?

What why do you think his reasons might be?
