RECAP

"You see Ibrahim did a sensible thing and agreed- except he kept his touch with Fatima and that made me angry! I did not want to see my sister suffer but she did when she found out about Fatima- she tried killing herself numerous times and finally she died! She died because of this wrenched woman and i will do anything to ruin her!" Waazir yelled out the last part, standing up

Iqraam stood infront of his mother

"Dare to touch her and it would be your last breath" he stated and Waazir laughed

"I don't need to touch her to destroy her- shes already dying, just like Loriza is" he stated

everyone turned to Loriza

"Oh hell" was all she muttered

Loriza felt her body heat rise at the question, she did not want to stand answerable to anyone at all at that point

"Dying? What are you talking about?" Shumayll questioned, interrupting Loriza's thoughts

Waazir barked a laugh

"Silly boy, you see to ruin Fatima, i don't initially need to touch her, i can simple ruin Iqraam or better yet, Iqra and then my job will be done" said Waazir and then in a blink of an eye, he was down again with Iqraam and Shumayll both on him throwing furious punches

"BOYS STOP IT!" yelled Ibrahim and immediately the two of them stopped and stood up straight as if nothing happened

"Waazir, I don't know why you want to harm me or her! what is it that I have done to you? For gods sake! Stop creating a commotion and leave! Honestly you think you can touch my daughters knowing that my sons will rip you apart! Go away!" Ibrahim was dead calm and dead serious about it

Waazir set back, took a moment to think

why was he actually here?

Perhaps to ruin him but why?

He turned to Edreena who shrugged

it was her! That cunning woman had brought in thoughts of ruining the Ibrahim family

"Edreena was the reason-" he said, turning to the shocked woman

"M-Me? You said you wanted revenge!" she shrieked

"Okay so lets get this straight, i am getting tired of this nonsense! Why are you two here? Don't say to talk because i know you are not! I would like this wedding to take place in peace, please" said Edris, stepped forward and Loriza sighed

"I want my place in Edris family!" stated Edreena, clearly and fearlessly

the rest of them gaped at her

what?

was she crazy?

definitely kuku!

"You are not getting one" stated Edris and Loriza looked up to him

"Why not? I was your wife! Why can't i have my place!?!!" shrieked Edreena being all dramatic

"You are not my wife, the only woman in my life is Loriza Edris and i do not wish to change that" stated Edris

at this, Loriza felt her eyes water. She knew he loved her but she let her insecurities get in her way. Perhaps it was the best thing he ever told her

"Oh but you have to! I mean Loriza decided to divorce you, i hear?" snarled Edreena and a few gasps were heard before all eyes went to Loriza

Her concious taunted her for not fighting for her husband and with unknown energy, she went all lawyer mode

"You actually believed that? You have the nerve to try to wreck my family but let me tell you something, Edreena, I am not leaving him nor is he leaving me- Don't try to break what you can't!" stated Loriza and Shumayll grinned at her

"Arrgghh why is this so unfair?! I mean she took my husband, my son and now refuses to let them go! Is that even what you are suppose to be doing?" muttered Edreena and Loriza laughed

"Oh honey, I did not take them, Shumayll is my son and as for your husband, well he was never yours to begin with" stated Loriza again and with one hijab flip, she walked away, her heels cracking on the wooden floor

Iqra grinned at her mother-in-law and turned to Shumayll

"Now that its over- i think- can we send them away?" she asked him and he chuckled

"I guess so"

Edreena was furious, furious over the fact that she did not get into Edris house. It was not the house or Edris that mattered to her, it was the power, wealth and fame that came with it. Imagine the world at your feet! Thats the cost of Edris and Ibrahim name

Pity she did not get it

Waazir was Ibrahim's second wife's brother, who wanted revenge on Ibrahim over the death of his sister

What he did not realize was that his sister did not die because of Ibrahim, she died because she had brain cancer and there was nothing they could do about it. Before her death, Aiiza made Ibrahim let her meet Fatima, who in return promised to take care of her kids in the future. Aiiza was not angry at Fatima, instead she had advised Ibrahim to go back to the family but after her death, Waazir made sure he didn't

so that was the story of Ibrahim, the story that Iqraam did not want to know but was eventually explained by Fatima and he had to embrace the truth

Loriza set on the bed, staring off into the city lights from her window

Her mind was blank and she felt hollow

the drama had taken a toll on her

A single tear slipped out of her eye and a warm hand wiped it away

turning to the side, she saw Edris smiling at her

At that sight, fresh tears began

"Oh come on!" he said, chuckling lightly as he wiped away her tears

"I-I- am s-s-so-sorry" she hiccuped out and Edris rubbed her back

"It's fine! Wrong pictures make everyone doubt everyone" he stated as he pulled her in a huge hug

Loriza felt at home and slowly ceased crying

They stayed like that for a little longer before detatching and smiling at each other

"Forgiven?" asked Edris and Loriza laughed

"Always!" she muttered, tackling him down for a kiss

The Edris family was once again on track, not exactly a happy one but it still was going on

The following morning, Iqra woke up feeling satisfied and new

With all the drama and things over, Shumayll and Iqra could finally focus on their wedding

Or not

"I WILL KILL YOU!!!!"
