ISN’T THE DEVIL’S PLAN WOEKI H ON US?

Shamim walks into the mansion with his jacket on his arm and his tie a bit loosened, ignoring everyone he sees in the sitting room, and walks straight to his room.

"Didn't he see us?" Malik asks his wife.

"I am sure he did saw all of us, but I think he just has something bothering him so badly," says Lola.

"Why are you trying to always cover up for him anytime he is wrong?" He asks again. "I hope you know that is one of the reasons he is this ill-mannered. Because you over-pampered him and always overlooked every of his wrongdoing."

"Sweetheart, let kids be kids. The only problem I think we have is that he doesn't want to talk to anybody."

Malik stands and faces the daughter, " let me talk to you in your room." He says to her.

"Okay." Ella stands and heads to her room.

"You can join us too." He says to his wife.

Lola stands and says to her husband. "Let's go." The both of them walk to Ella's room.

"I just hope something unpleasant doesn't happen this night, everywhere has been so tense since morning and I do not like it at all, as a matter of fact, I already feel very uncomfortable." Darifa whispers to Abdullah.

"Maybe it's just time for us to take our leave." Adds Asma.

"What the hell are you talking about now?" Abdullah asks flaring up.

"Can't you see we are almost not welcomed here anymore? They are having family issues and so you think we should be here to experience such an unpleasant situation?" Asma retorts.

"Just shut up Asma!" Darifa says loudly sounding very pissed. "What is wrong with you? What has gotten over you? Why are you acting strange and suspicious all of a sudden?"

"I am not acting strange, I am just being me."

"Being you? Being you means acting like a spy and a betrayer?" Darifa asks again.

"A spy and a betrayer?" Asma asks and scoffs. "So you all can call me a spy and betrayer because I am showing to everyone that I am not satisfied with this hiding?"

"No one is satisfied staying here, but we've got no choice but to stay here and hide for the main time until everything is settled and issued out." Abdullah tries to clarify.

"There is an insider!" Asma exclaims loudly at the top of her voice and stands facing her friends with her eyes burning red. "And we don't know who it is." she pauses and continues. "It could be any of you." she points to the both of them. "or even Ella!" she says loudly.

"Bring down your voice," Abdullah whispers. "I am sure you do not want any other person to hear the nonsense you are spouting out your mouth."

"I do not care about that anymore! All I know is we are all in this mess because of Ella." she says and walks out in annoyance.

Abdullah and Darifa follow Asma with their eyes until she disappears.

"This is bad!" Darifa exclaims calmly.

"What are we going to do?" Abdullah asks. "At this point, if we don't do something very fast, the friendship we built for ten years might go down the drain."

"There is nothing we can do about it Abdullah, we have to allow this entire thing to settle itself. We need to let our friendship prove itself worthy." she sighs. "Leave Asma alone, for now, she will sort herself later."

"This shouldn't be happening now at all. We are still looking for some sort of way to get rid of Jessica and now Shamim and Asma are acting this terribly? Isn't the devil's plan working out well on us?"

"I won't lie to you, I am fed up right now." whispers Darifa. "We aren't even sure if there is an insider or Jessica is just spying. I guess her true motive is to turn us into enemies."

Abdullah's phone rings and at once, their heart skips a beat. Both of them are not sure what to do or even think. "Could it be Jessica?" They ask in their minds.

"Do you think I should answer the call?" He asks.

"Of course." Darifa replies with a nod.

Abdullah picks up his oboe and as expected, the caller's identity has private number displayed. "It's Jessica." He murmurs and didn't wait for Darifa to say anything before he answers the call and leaves it on loudspeaker. "Hello."

"Why don't you all stop hiding and come out to face me, for how long do you plan on living in hiding?" Jessica asks with a sign of mockery.

"What exactly do you want from us Jessica? Does being a threat to us all interest you this much?" asks Abdullah.

"I am coming to get you from Ella soon enough." she says and ends the call.

"What was the purpose of the call now?" He asks and drops the phone.

"You still don't know?" Darifa asks starting at him dead in the eye. "Have you forgotten she likes you? And in her last words, she said "I am coming to get you from Ella soon."

"I still don't believe that still."
