The burn scar

Going out together with her brother

EPISODE ELEVEN

Fatimah wasn’t happy about them going out,she didn’t expect her brother will come all the way from Abuja because of Mumeenah.She knows it is because of her not because he wanted to lift the tension of examination from them.

She was reluctant to dress up,she was moody,not cheerful,on the other hand,Mumeenah was happy to dress up and look forward to the fun they will have,she’s an introvert but she has been thinking of an outing to clear off her head.

They dressed up nicely,put on deodorant that smells nicely and dressed quickly not to delay their visitor outside waiting for them.As they stepped out,they saw Abdul Salam standing beside the car,he looked at Mumeenah and nod his head,she wore a modest purple gown match with her veil,apply little lipgloss that compliment her beauty,with her pretty smile on her face,she’s really an epitome of beauty.

On the other hand,Fatimah wore a long fitted black skirt and blue top then wore veil that compliment it then also applied little lipgloss,she’s really pretty in her own way.She wore a gloomy face,not happy,was moody,she frowns her face as they enter the car.

Abdul Salam tries keeping conversation,Mumeenah was replying,the conversation was flowing,Abdulsalam noticed how calmly Mumeenah replied and how intelligent she replied.He asked them where can they go,anywhere popular they can visit,where tourist visit,where people can tour and had fun,Mumeenah answered they can go to university of Ilorin zoo,amusement parks,they’re much places they can visit.He further asked have they have their breakfast ,they said no,that they just woken up when he came,they had no time to cook.He also said he hasn’t has his breakfast too that they should branch a restaurant.

Abdul Salam parked his car to a fancy restaurant,it’s really a nice place,they got down together from the car and find a nice spot to sat on.Fatimah was still having this moody face,she didn’t indulge in their conversation,she just sat down quietly observing the two of them.As the waiter brought the menu on what they will eat,they picked different dishes and the waiter served them.

They ate their food quietly,Mumeenah and Abdul Salam was just discussing briefly while Fatimah was just picking her food,not interested in the outing,not interested in their talk nor the food.

Then a scenario happen,opposite them sat a couple,they were arguing at first,then it turn to a heated argument,that it distracted people in the restaurant,they started turning their direction to when the noise is coming from,then the man stand up raise his hands on the woman and slapped her,the woman bow her head in shame,no one stood or go near them or interfere.

Abdul Salam stand up,he was really annoyed why will a man raises his hand up to beat a woman.He got near their table and asked the man why would he do such thing,the man wasn’t remorseful,he told him he should mind his business.

Then Abdul Salam said”why will you raise your hand on a woman,what a domestic violence and a woman beater you are,no matter what the woman has done he shouldn’t have raise his hands up,this is uncalled for,you’re supposed to be arrested for,what nonsense,it’s only a weak and useless man that beat a woman”.

He pointed his hand towards the man and said in his life he shouldn’t do that kind of thing that if not he’s in his good mood he will have beat him up and handed him over the police station.

He said”women are like a egg why will someone treat them like a trash,they’re supposed to be held in a high esteem way,why will you maltreat a woman like that”

He was really annoyed at the fact that no one stood against him and annoyed that he is a woman beater.The man bowed his head in shame and walked out as his wife followed behind him

Abdul Salam went to their table back and ate his remaining food.In his face it’s really show how annoyed he was,his mood change,his countenance changed and the two girls that sat with him noticed that.
