How wonderful is the situation of a believer. There is good for him in everything and this applies only to a believer. If prosperity comes to him, he expresses gratitude to God and that is good for him; and if adversity befalls him, he endures it patiently and that is better for him. - prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam ( peace be upon him)
If you haven't prayed your Salah please pray this book can wait but your Salah can't
Amira Sultan p.o.v
After praying my fajr Salah , I stood near the window like always watching the sun rise , my eyes fell on the huge garden , the garden was full of variety of flowers and tree , there was fountain in the center of the garden , even though it's been a week and yesterday Nafisa told me that we will visit park but for some reason Rabiya aunty didn't let us , I want to go out in the garden , it's inside the house what bad could happen beside everyone is sleeping right now .
My corner lips twitched as my mind was determined to go downstairs and roam in the beautiful garden , wrapping my hijab properly . I went downstairs , giggling. I felt happy like a bird about to escape the cage .
I open the main door only to be frightened by two gunmen standing two sides of the door in full attention . I gulped when I saw what was in their hands .
IT WAS GUN !!!
must be full of bullets ….
Bullets that can kill me .
Surprisingly both of them saw fear in my eyes so they stepped aside to make me comfortable .
But I didn't move , should I go out ??
Am I allowed ??
But I am still in the house , I am not going out of the main gate .

I was debating inside my mind when the fresh sunrise hit my nose . I couldn't stop myself so I stepped out. I saw two more men but they were far away from the garden .
To tell the truth I was glad , I can enjoy the beautiful view in front of me without feeling uneasy .
I looked around and touched the beautiful flowers , giggles erupted from my throat as I couldn't contain my happiness .
" Subhan Allah ( Glory to be Allah ) every flower is so beautiful and full of colours " I admired the red roses.
Cold wind gushes through , unconsciously I rub my arm feeling cold .
I was busy looking around the flowers when I didn't realise that someone's gaze was piercing through me .
" Assalamualaikum " I heard a man's voice behind my back .
Hearing a man's voice my body got rigid , turning around I saw a man who looked quite familiar .
Have I seen him before?
" Walekum Assalam " I said reassure looking down I didn't like the way he was scanning my face .
" I am Osman , Khalid's best friend, " he introduced himself .
Ahh… yes I saw him that day when I met the storm that wrecked my life for the first time .
I nodded not knowing what to say , he is a good looking man, he was well built but not more than Khalid, that man knows how to maintain himself .
We stood in awkward silence …. What is he doing here so early ??
" I am Amira " I replied hesitantly when I saw he wasn't moving .
" I know " he whispered , I looked up to see an unknown emotion whirling in his eyes .
" I hope Khalid treats you well " . His question took me by surprise .
For the first time someone asked me this , I mean not even my father called me once after I got married .

Not that I have a phone but he could have called Khalid .
Thinking about it I look down and water fills my eyes .
" I am sorry " I knit my eyebrows together .
" Why are you saying sorry? " I wiped my tears .
He shook his head '' Nothing " there was sadness in his voice .
" Khalid is not a bad man you know " he said and I wanted to roll my eyes mentally I did .
" He -" before he could say anything .
We both heard a smashing voice inside the house .
Glancing at each other , we both went inside only to see Khalid throwing plates on the floor .
" Ya Allah " I gasp " what's wrong with you " I yell feeling mad .
Those plates can cost a person a fortune .
He was about to throw another plate when my voice held his hand in mid air , our eyes met anger and fury was dancing in them . Clenching his jaw , he smashed the plate on the floor which scattered into pieces .
I step back fearing some pieces can pierce my skin .
" Khalid what happened " Ayesha aunty came hurriedly .
" Khalid what's Wrong " Osman tried to step forward but one look from Khalid and he stopped .
" Why did I hire you? " his eyes glaring at Ayesha aunty .
She look so scared and speechless " to- to take - care of "
Before she could complete , I heard soft sniffling behind the stairs .
I quickly went to Sayra , the poor kid was trembling in fear .
I quickly pick her in my arm " what's wrong " I wipe her tears .
She hid her face on my chest crying .
" I hired you to take care of my niece's and this is how you are taking care of them '' Khalid snarled , something inside me clenched hearing his harsh voice on Ayesha , she is so much older than him .
" Sir - I don't know what happened '' she was in tears and clueless .
" SHE FELL FROM THE STAIRS , AND YOU WEREN'T THEIR TO TAKE CARE OF HER " he shouted at the top of his lung , Sayra grip tightening around my neck .
" Khalid calm down " came out from my mouth and every eye fell on me .
" Did you ask me to calm down? " he approached my way , anger lacing in his eyes .
My eyes widened " oh no " I whispered .

Dreams.I never thought much about them.Mostly for the point that I could never remember any of mine.And the bits and pieces that remain would never make sense.This is what dreams are like after all.Just some random mix, thrown together by an unstable mind to get over the stuff which bothered one during the day.At least that's what I thought.Until they turned against me.Twisted everything I knew and turned my whole existence into a nightmare.But the thing is...
