Rahmah carefully turned around and looked at the figure before her in fear.
Why does it look so much like the man who tortured her yesterday?...The lights were very bright. She can't be mistaken. She carefully stepped aside and her clothes mistakenly came in contact with a black vase.
Click.. it fell and the anger in Mubarak’s body rose.
Get her out of my sight. He ordered and was about to leave when a cute voice called his name and he stopped instantly.
Walking back to the bed, he placed his hand on her cheek.
Daddy. She called weakly again and he quickly brought her head to his chest.
Dad is sorry, I should have been more careful. My princess should forgive Daddy alright. He said while coxing her in his arms.
Of course, I was very brave and weaved a few of the beatings.
Really? That's my girl. Father has punished them already.
Alright…uhm… isn't that auntie? . She called uncertainly while probing her head forward.
Which aunt?..her father was about to ask before she quickly raised her voice and tried hopping down the bed but failed in doing so.
Oh, be careful. Rahmah quickly rushed towards her and stepped on a shred of glass by mistake.
Ouch!.
She cried but still went over to Khira’s side.
Are you okay?. Let me have a look. She said,
No, it's fine . Rahmah quickly declined while stealing glances and the intimidating figure on the other side of the bed.
It isn't fine . Go get me the first aid kit and clean up the mess on the floor. Khira ordered the maid and Rahmah could only watch.
How rich is this little cutie?. She wondered .
A few minutes later.
Khira applied medication beneath her feet and stopped the blood from oozing more.
Thanks so much. I have to leave for now. You should behave yourself okay. Rahmah said while standing to leave.
She doesn't want to stay in the same room with this guy even for a few minutes.
Why? Stay with me for a few days. Please…pretty please. Khira pleaded while blinking her innocent watery eyes.
Sigh…Alright .I want to change though. Rahmah told her.
That ain't a problem. Mrs. Collins would show you to your room.
Okay. She stepped out.
After she went out, Khira moved closer to her dad and told him not to give her a hard time.
Are you deciding for me?. He asked teasingly.
Whatever you read it as. She replied while lying on her other side and Mubarak gently tugged her to sleep again.
Rahmah took out her phone to make a call to her father and told him she had things to take care of , that's why she didn't come home or call at all.
He believed her and told her to take care of herself the most.
She answered and bitterly cut the call. I am sorry dad. She apologised and stepped out of the room fully changed into a green hijab with a free gown coloured viridian green.
Immediately she got outside, she heard another female adult voice and decided to wait a little.
The voice doesn't sound too friendly.
