C27 Twenty seven

The previous date of yesterday went well for Anisah and Waleed because they got to know each other better. And at that moment Waleed knew that he could feel at peace whenever she was around, she was like a cool breeze that brought peace to him. He could stare at her blue eyes all day long without feeling Exhausted, she could take away his pain with just the stretch of her lips. He got up lazily from the bed and checked the time on the clock, it was 10:44AM and Anisah hadn't come to wake him up. That was strange. He thought while strolling into the toilet. He had already prayed Subh so he took his bath and got dressed into casuals. He got out immediately and Ambulated into her room. He knocked on the door but it went unanswered so he entered into the room and saw Anisah laying on the bed clutching her stomach and crying. He immediately ran to her and hugged her tightly. "What's wrong?" He sounded very worried.

"My stomach" She cried out. Her eyes looked bloodshot red and he felt scared seeing fear in her eyes. What could be so wrong.

"Come let's go to the hospital" He tried to help her up to her feet but she resisted.

"I need hot water and A sanitary Pad"

She managed to speak. It immediately clicked, she was on her period.

"Oh. you are on your period" he immediately placed his palm over his mouth when he uttered those words. He didn't say anything further and ran out and Sauntered towards his car where he sat in and drove to the nearest chemist and got her pain killers and about fifteen products of sanitary pad. He didn't know the one she would prefer. Immediately he got home he went to the kitchen and boiled water and put it on a tray along with a cup of water which wasn't cold nor hot. He Ambulated into her room and found her wearing another clothing and Laying on the bed asleep. She managed to take her bath, he walked into the room and placed all that he had brought of the dresser. He wondered how he had even managed to bring the train and the leather bags all at once. "Anisah" He didn't wanna touch her so he used a throw pillow to hit her leg lightly. She opened her eyes slowly and soon the pain consumed her slowly. She winced.

"Here is the hot water, pain killers and the other stuffs you said I should get for you" He said and she forced a genuine smile through the pain. She managed to sit on the bed and he passed her the drugs. She thanked her stars that she had one spare pad from the last month. "Wait, eat this before you can take the drug" He passed her a slice of pizza and she reluctantly took some bites and then took the medication. He smiled at her calmly.

"I'll be back soon Anisah, let me make you breakfast" He said but she stopped him.

"I feel full" She said.

"But you haven't eaten?" He argued.

"The pain won't let me" she said.

"Oh" He shrugged and sat down in the chair. He took one slice of the pizza and began eating it slowly. She stared at him calmly as he ate. He looked peaceful. 'Kabira would be lucky to have him' she thought as she immediately averted her gaze from him. A call came through her phone and she saw that it was Jamal, a smiled immediately made its way onto her face as she saw that it was him.

"Jam jam" she said happily. From that name, Waleed knew it was non other than the annoying guy he hated so much.

"Omg really?. Congratulations"

Anisah said. Jamal had told her a very wonderful news.

"I can't promise I'll make it, but In sha Allah if I can I will come" she said and they talked for over thirty minutes with Waleed scrolling through his phone in annoyance. God he hated Jamal. After Anisah had finished making her call, she turned to Waleed with a smile and said "Jamal is getting married on the 14th" She said happily. God!, Waleed felt a big weight being lifted off his chest at the mention of this news.

"Alhamdudilah that's great news" He said Happily. Even happier than Anisah.

"So will you attend?" He asked.

"No way, it all the way in Gombe. I can't travel that far" she said.

"Oh..." his statement was cut short by the loud beeping of his cellphone. He checked the caller ID and saw that it was Kabira.

"Hi" He said with a lack of Enthusiasm in his voice.

"Waleed, Can you come pick me up please?. My car just decided not to move and I'm stranded on the expressway" She said.

"I'm very sorry Kabira, I can't come. Anisah is very sick and I have to stay with her" He said.

"Anisah?" She asked. "Oh"

"I'll send my Driver to come help you out Okay?" He said. Kabira could feel her heart burn from Anger. He was choosing Anisah over her.

"Okay" She managed to utter before cutting the call.

"Go and help her Waleed, She's your Fiancé" Anisah said Calmly.

"My driver will" He had already dialed his driver and he picked it up and he sent him Kabiras number.

"Anisah I'll have to go and prepare something for us to eat. No ifs or but" He said. He got up and Ambulated into the kitchen. After Thirty minutes of him being gone Anisah decided to go to him but stumbled upon Kabira who was seated in the living room. The driver had brought her to Waleeds house.

"You leave here?" Kabira said immediately she saw Anisah.

"Y..yes" Anisah stuttered.

"Why. Are. You. Staying. In. The. Same. House. As. My. Fiancée?!" She half yelled because she knew Waleed was inside the kitchen.

"I..m his maid" She uttered.

"A maid?" Kabira asked and Anisah nodded. Kabira began to laugh.

"What are you doing in our lives?. Anisah I came here because of you, leave Waleed alone. You are destroying his future with your presence. Why don't you just leave this house or something. I am going to be his wife soon and you are coming in my way" She spat rudely. Anisah couldn't control herself as tears began to stream down her eyes.

"That's enough Kabira" Waleed Roared angrily. Kabira knew that she had messed up big time. "aren't you ashamed of yourself?" He asked her.

"Waleed I can ex..." Kabira tried to speak out Waleed put his hand up. She kept shut.

"Anisah is my friend and not my maid. And she's hundred times better than you, You are a mean woman and I do not like people like you" He said with coldness in his eyes. "Get our of my house" He shouted. Kabira couldn't understand what was going on, Waleed had just insulted her bitterly. She began to shed tears, she was hurt.

"Wait there!" He yelled and she halted.

He brought out his phone and called his mother. She picked it up on the second ring "Mama, Good Afternoon"

He greeted calmly.

"Afternoon my son" His mother responded happily "I was just about to even call you regarding the engagement ceremony. I've chosen some..." he cut her short with his words.

"I'm not marrying that mannerless girl mama, She's not my type" he said rudely.

"I don't understand Waleed" his mother said.

"I said I will not marry Kabira, tell her mother that I'm not interested in her Mannerless daughter" He spatted our.

"How will I do that?" His mother said.

"If you cannot, I can. This is my life and not yours and I already have a woman I would love to Marry" He said.

"And who is that?" His mother asked.

"Anisah"
