Chapter 48 - Accept The Fact

***

Writer's POV:

Asahd returned to the apartment at twelve the next day. He was very happy to meet Djafar in the living room. The man was happy to see him as well.

"You were gone a few days but I missed you like crazy." Asahd chuckled and bent over to hug a sitting Djafar.

"Missed you too." Djafar smiled happily, "How was the week?"

"It was okay. Nothing new."

"But you had fun at least."

"Yeah. Saïda and I went visiting places from time to time. How was the place you went to?"

"It was okay. I was able to finish what I'd gone there to do."

"I'm glad. Where's Saïda?" Asahd looked around.

"She just showered. She's in her room dressing up."

"Okay. Lemme go drop this bag."

"Alright, son."

Asahd headed straight for his room.

He unpacked the things that were in the backpack and put them back in place in his room. While he did so, there was a single knock at his door and Saïda stepped in. They smiled at each other.
