Inayah's Kismet

The first time they met, he saw her in only her underwear from his glass mansion across her small apartment window. So he said to her, ‘leave’ or ‘sell’ your house to me. The second time they met, he called her an ‘opportunist’ who tried to seduce him. The third time they met, he tried to kiss her because she smelt good. Wait! What is this new development in Jasper Miles? Wasn’t he rumoured to have hatred for women and couldn’t touch women? Why is he always looking out of his window at the small apartment across him just to see the petite girl, then? Why is he trying to covet her by tricking her? The girl said to him one day, ‘‘wait! I am still in high school. I can’t have a boyfriend right now’’ He leaned closer to her and whispered into her ears, '‘is not that you can’t have a boyfriend. Rather, it’s I can only be the one boyfriend that you will have in this life. We are bound together’’ ‘‘Shameless man!’’ the girl said and before she could turn her face away, he held her chin and looked into her eyes. ‘‘Inayah, you can only belong to me in this life and the life to come’’ After her tragic death, Inayah wakes up to find herself back to her 18-year-old self. Back to the beginning where everything started. At 18, she was an ordinary girl living her best life until she met Jasper Miles. The man who made her best friend turn against her. Jasper Miles was rumoured to be ruthless and someone who ‘couldn’t ‘touch’ women because he hated them and had suffered a bad breakup from the past. Waking up to the year her life turned around, Inayah was given a choice. To meet the same man again or to have a new life without that man. But, she decided, she wanted that man and was made to live that life again but with a catch. Now she could see the true colours of everyone. The one she once called her ‘best friend’ became her enemy. The one she once called her ‘enemy’ turned out to be her true friend. Inayah said to herself. ‘‘Now, I must live right this now’’ NB: Cover doesn't belong to me. Credits goes to the owner.

I can smell death all around you...

''Yes. Before, he died. I was 14 years then, but, anytime I saw my dad, I was always scared. I had a sudden fear in me about suddenly losing him. He didn't tell anyone about his illness. Not even my mother whom he was very close too. One day, he got up to make me a cup of warm milk and he fainted, just like that. When we sent him to the hospital, the doctor told us he had cancer stage 4. He couldn't be cured even with all the money we had back then. My mom was so stubborn as a bull just like she is now. She refused to give up and spent all our money on chemotherapy but, alas, my dad still died''

''I'm so sorry. You never told us this? It must have been hard on you and your mother''

'It was, it still is. But, I hate pity; whether giving it or receiving it. I hate it, so I don't tell a lot of people about it. You and Bertha are the only ones who know this''

''So, what happened next? You said your mom spent all your family money. How did you survive back then?''
