FATIMA'S
Years later
It was my baby's first day at school, I couldn't believe she was 4 years old. Bashir got ready for work and my baby got ready for school, I snapped a lot of pictures for my w******p profile.
I sent it to mama and mommy too.
Bash and Ammi got ready and went out.
The house was so quiet, I was used to her noise and all so I felt really lonely. I couldn't wait for 12, it was the closing hour of her school.
+++++
By 11:20 I was already by the gate, people kept looking at the car I was in, it was a jaguar, the latest model and I didn't like it. I preferred a Ciana it was a family car.
By 12 I couldn't wait to see my baby, then I spotted her with two girls holding hands, I went out of the car and carried her, she was so happy to see me, we drove back home.
On reaching home I fed her, bath her, and helped her do her assignment. Bashir's mom was coming to stay with us for a few days, so the house was extra clean.
It wasn't long before she arrived, I took her things to the room and brought her food.
"When is Abba coming back?"Ammi asked looking curious.
"you've been asking me that question since haa aren't you happy to see me and grandma?" mama laughed
"no wonder she looks like him."
Not long After I heard the Salam, it was Bashir, he was back. she ran to welcome him...
"oh my baby I missed you so much, how was your first day at school?"
"It was fine I made friends," she said with some words not clear.
"that's really good hope you ate as well? "
" yes I did"
"That's my girl"
he bent down and greet mama too and then went upstairs to freshen up.
+++++++
I woke up to find ammi already dressed, I guess it's a mama's doing, she was looking lovely as always.
"mom I don't wanna be late for school where is Abba??"
" His eating wait for him" I replied.

I was really living a happy life until I got a call from Khadija saying we had to talk and she was coming over.
She arrived and I opened the door for her and she started with;
"I know I shouldn't say This but I have to,
I wanted to bury it but I just can't, seeing you two happy is unfair to me." and then she started telling me things like she and Bashir are still seeing each other because they loved each other in the first place, crazy things that didn't make sense.
Immediately she left I called Bashir crying and asking him why he didn't tell me. He said he was coming back home immediately but about 20 minutes after his call came in again. I hesitated before I picked but I couldn't believe what I heard, I dropped my phone on the floor in shock. I wore my veil upside down with two different slippers, I entered the car and drove to ammi's school, I picked her up and we headed for the hospital. "
I can't believe he was in an accident "
I thought tears kept flowing, I couldn't get what was happening, Ammi kept asking
"mommy why are you crying??
But I couldn't answer her.
as I entered the hospital and headed to the emergency ward I saw the doctors rushing into the ER with bash, I couldn't believe what was happening, faleela was crying saying she wanted to see her dad. I sat on the floor with my hands on my head.
"I don't care if he loves another woman I thought, all I want is for him to be OK."
After a while Imran was here he said that he was called by someone that Bashir was in an accident and that our parents were on the way.
Not long After mama and mommy came in with baba and Abba, we greeted them and we sat down to wait.
The doctor came out and we all stood up
"Am sorry but he couldn't make it" he said.....
All I remembered was an alarming tune and I could hear my name being called and then it went blank.
