CHAPTER 31

  J A W A D

  "We decided that when Farah wakes up she will recuperate at her parent's house" It feels like I've been splashed with a bucket of water, I couldn't believe my ears.

  "Mom, what are you saying? I can take care of her at home"?

  "Yes you had me right, we've already discussed this and we think it's the right thing to do." She stated as if it's nothing big.

  As if she doesn't care about what we're going through.

  "I love her Mom, how can you say that" I muttered the last part, the word sounding heavy on my lips.

  "You don't love her, you pity her that's just it."

  I turned to Farah's mom whose face shows disappointment. "Aunt please don't separate me from Farah, I really love her." She kept her face down without saying anything.

  I stared at them dumbfounded, why is everything turning against me. Is this the punishment for my mistake?.

  But I don't want separating from her to be my punishment.

  Ya Allah.
