Chapter 19

She closed the door to her room and rest her back on it with a sigh. The event of what happened is still imprinted in her mind. What if sadiq had not rescued her, would she have being a victim of rape? Why is he so strange? One minute he is rude and the next he seems to be OK.

So many thoughts keeps swirling in her head.

The way he held her felt so comforting , of course she wouldn't admit it to him or anybody else.

His girlfriend would sure have a lot to do with driving girls away from him coz he is fit and good-looking, she thought.

Not that I'm interested in him . I can never be interested in him ,God forbid, she shook her head as a sign of rejecting the idea of liking him.

Where did all these thoughts come from? How come I'm starting to notice his good looks now? I reject it, I can't fall for a mechanic.

" I'm not crushing on him" she kept muttering repeatedly. " I can never have a crush on that thing " she muttered again, she herself was finding it hard to believe her words

She walks to the center of the room, close to where her couch was. She drop the Vail she use to cover herself. Thank goodness she always keep big Vails in her car in case of any emergencies . That was what she used to cover the tear on her dress, even her dad didn't noticed it. She went to lay flat on her queen size bed.

" I'm so tired " she muttered and sniffed her clothes " hmm, I smell like sweat. First I need a warm bath" she crunch up her nose and got up to walk straight to her bathroom .

Ten minutes later she was out. She changed into her night wear and tied up her torn dress in a nylon and then put it in a bin. She knew the dress will always remind her of today's event which was the reason behind the disposal.She went to retrieve her phone from her bag in other to charge it. Stupid damn phone

She kept hissing at the fact that she couldn't even make a single call. I see no use for it. On a second thought, she knew it was all her fault. If she had charged it maybe those goons wouldn't have had the opportunity to try taking advantage of her. She plug in the charger and left her phone to charge for some minutes because she has few calls to make. One of the people she needs to call is Sadiq.

" I thought you got kidnapped or something. Man, you almost gave me a heart attack coz you don't take this long when you go jogging. Tell me what happened " a worried jafar said

Immediately Sadiq entered into the room, Jafar had been asking him where he was and what happened that made him came home late .He got scared that maybe Sadiq got an asthma attack while jogging.He's been sitting ,waiting for a call from Sadiq since Sadiq wasn't picking his calls. But now that Sadiq was home safely, his mind has calm down. But he still needs to know what happened.

Sadiq didn't answer, instead he insisted on taking a bath first before telling him what happened. Now that Sadiq is out of the bathroom, he pretend as if he didn't hear what Jafar was saying.

" I'm talking to you man " an annoyed jafar said. He was tired of Sadiq's silent. Meanwhile, sadiq was doing it purposely just to annoy him. He dry his hair with his white towel and finally turn to look at his friend.

" you were saying something?" ask sadiq with a raised brow just to irk jafar more.

Jafar already understood the game sadiq was playing " stop acting dumb with me "

" who said I was acting dumb"

" Be serious Dan Allah "

Sadiq sat on the carpet floor. He blew out a breath through his mouth " I saw the spoilt brat " he started, remembering the position she was in when he got to the quiet route .

Jafar look at him quizzically " you mean the heiress of prestige enterprise? "

" yes. "

" how? When? Where?" he was eager to know

Sadiq chuckled at his friends frantic face " calm down. I will tell you all you need to know. Just listen attentively " jafar nodded

He explained all that happened from A to Z. But left out the part where he held Rahama. no one needs to know about that, that should be our little secret, thought sadiq

" I really pity her. Only Allah knows what she is feeling right now " said jafar sadly.

Sadiq clasp his palm" so my lovely girlfriend, now that you've known what had kept me long, hope you're now satisfied? " joked sadiq. Jafar glared at him from where he was sat.

" you aren't funny. Don't try to be"

Sadiq laughed out loud " so you mean you didn't fall for my charm?" he touched his chest like he was heartbroken " I can't believe you don't like me". Its rare seeing sadiq act like this, it seems he was in a good mood.

" Abeg stop your silly drama. Before I have second thoughts about your sexuality"

"ahhhhhhhhhh" sadiq shout " let's not go there. Change of topic sharperli-sharperli (A.N slang) "

" better " said jafar

Sadiq went to get pure water from their small fridge.

" tomorrow by Allah's will, I'll visit aunty yasirah maybe around 2:00 pm. It's going to be a surprise visit"

" that would be nice. She will be so happy" said jafar with a nod.

" yeah, she will. Let me check if my battery is full "

Sadiq went to check it and to his surprise it was as if the phone call unto him because it was ringing. Due to the fact that it was on silent, they didn't hear the sound.

" imagine, someone has been trying my number and we didn't hear" he said

Jafar turn to face him " who is that? "

Sadiq shrugged " I don't know. It an unknown number "

He pick the call immediately it rang again

" hello? "

" hello" a ladies voice chirp in

" who's this? "

" hey Mr mechanic , its Rahama Dabo from prestige enterprise "

He still didn't know who was speaking . He didn't know any Rahama from prestige enterprise. It sad to say that the only lady he knew was the spoilt brat.

" OK miss Rahama how may I help you? "

" don't tell me you still haven't recognize who is talking? " he joined two and two together.

Could it be the spoilt brat? If she is the one, then she really has a nice name.

Rahama

" spoilt brat? "

.

***

Still on the phone with Sadiq, Rahama sat on her couch.

" I said you should stop calling me that" she frown

" I won't. What is the reason behind this call or are you going to confess how much you miss me already ?" he joked

" God forbid, I can't stoop to your level . Look Mr mechanic my dad sent me to you which is why I called. Don't get ahead of yourself. I'm not one your local female fan"

" Really now? and how did you know that I have female fans?. Are you jealous miss Rahama ?"

" I will pretend I didn't hear that. The main reason why I called you is because dad wants to meet you. I don't know which charm you used on him the last time you came to my office. Come as early as 8:00am tomorrow.

" Do I need to use charm to make people like me miss Rahama? Don't tell me my charm also worked on you then ,because the way you were checking me out early was prove enough "

What he said was like a slap to her face

" how dear you say such nonsense to me. You are unbelievable. Who do you think you are? You this nobody " she said in anger

He seems unaffected because he chuckled " at least I'm a nobody with class.what about you? You believe you're somebody but you don't use that brain of yours to behave like one. I'm sure our conversation had ended miss Rahama. Tell your father that I'll be glad to meet him ,Goodnight . " he hung up even before she could retort back.

The beep beep sound of the phone, indicating that he hung up, was what brought her out of her shock

"hello?,hello?, hello?"

" did he just hang up on me" she looked at her phone totally speechless " that low life really have some nerve . Stupid arrogant man. How dear him" she screamed in her pillow.

" how dear him. I'll make sure I take my revenge tomorrow, he will regret ever insulting me. That fool"

Her phone rang once again. She thought it was sadiq so she immediately pick it up with out checking the caller's ID

" you have the nerve to call again?. You stupid arrogant man. What-

" Rahama? What have I done? "
