Meet the other half of the world
Chapter 28
“ and,” he says removing the cotton pad placed onto his arm.
“and it’s my turn…” I say pushing him aside.
It was the first time in my life that I had been willing to donate blood…I actually did it since he called me a chicken…starting to realize that my blood being drawn out of my body is a scary thing I fainted in the chair waking up a while later.
“We’re done,” the woman says cleaning me up.
I stand up on my wobbly knees that we’re worsened by the heels I wore on that day. Do not I repeat do not allow anyone to trick you into anything, especially the way this guy does. Our parents return from the shops at the mall my mother kissing me in public.
" the child's all grown now, " iyads mother says
I smile awkwardly, leaning onto my mother who helped me limp over to the car. You might think im exaggerating, but I really felt the way I look. I watched him giggle from behind me as we drove over for lunch, there was no hiding how I felt. After filling our tanks I felt a lot more better.
“See you just needed one of your weird salads, ” my mother says buying me another one
I smile walking away from them, I still wasn’t okay after being attacked that night. And meeting that stranger who saved me, Lord alone knows what would’ve happened if he or she didn’t come to my rescue, wait im sure it's a he.

She geared up walking beside me in the hallway, rushing out the door.
“When are you going to drop the obsessive act?” I ask grabbing the keys
“ id blow my cover if I do, don’t you think?”
Meet Aaminah, the leading female night messenger in the organisation. A lot more annoying than I am but as smart as a whip. When she isn’t drunk of course.
“I heard you got drunk on the job again?” I ask
“ drive or we'll be late…”
“you know its haraam right?”
“If you marry me I'll stop drinking…” she says smirking, and Liya thinks my jokes are bad.
“Too late already hitched.”
“you can’t fool me, you feel exactly the same way for her as you do for me…nothing, besides I heard it’s just part of your cover.”
“you see that’s none of your business, and how would you know if we in 2 completely different fields that aren’t related to each other in any way whatsoever,” I retort dropping her off at her pick up point.
“like I said if you do marry her. I won’t hesitate…to kill her and cage you.”
I left with a few goosebumps crawling up my spine, now that right there is beyond obsessive. I couldn’t stand her, and what was the whole I feel nothing for Liya about…wait, so I?
I arrive in front of the gate walking into the prison cell, it was a norm by now. A duty of mine by nature, Waaliyah's father trained mine. He was once a legendary man, unbeatable, respectable till his wife did something to make him end up paying severely…after my fathers passing he naturally became the father figure in my life, my mentor and everything more. I opened the cell entering, he was an honest man. I knew that with his skill level he would've escaped long ago, on the other hand, his love for his wife…he was protecting her…a lot more than she actually deserved
“Are you going to really marry waaliyah?” he asks wiping a chair for me
“ what do you think, should I? I mean we basically siblings…”
“your not, I mean I would be at ease knowing that she’s with a decent guy.”
“that’s up to her. I’m sure you did not call me just to inform me about that.”
He took out an envelope sliding it to me, we weren’t really allowed into the prisoners' cell but I and him were an exception or so I think. I take it hiding it away, it was obviously another corrupted mission the organisation choose to bury away. Like I said I only get my hands dirty when I need to.
