HE IS ROYALTY (AWAITING EDITING 😉)

Chapter 36

Sultan

"Are you okay?" Ummah asked for the second time again looking at me

"Nothing" I replied laying my head on her laps

"Aaban!" She called slowly stroking my hair with her soft hands

"I know you more than you know yourself so spill" she said again

"Yeah yeah spill, well I'm in love with a maid who i dont even know whether she wants me or not"

"Ummahhhhh" I dragged her name and sat upright to hold her hand

"I'm okay" i said looking into her eyes to assure her because i know how worried she gets when she suspects any change in my mood,

"Allah yasa" she said expiring deep air,

"When are you going to greet your Abba Yusuf? He's been here for a week now" she asked

"I'll try going in the evening, when is he going back to jigawa?"

"This coming weekend, but salma said he's flying to india for his check up" she said

"In shaa Allah I'll go in the evening" i said getting up to go back to my area

"Jameela yaushe kika dawo?" I asked my step sister when i saw her sitting in my parlor

"Since yesterday yaya" she replied

I nodded and sat down without saying any word because I don't really talk freely with them

"Ya karatu?" I asked since the last time i saw her she came to tell me she got admission to study law in China

"Alhamdulillah" she replies smiling

We sat in awkward silence there till i heard loud noise coming from the kitchen,

"Ke dawa kika zo?" I asked because i know Jadwa won't stay there talking to herself alone,

"Halima ce" she replied "she went to get water"

I didn't know when I excused myself and dashed into the kitchen immediately,

If not for the respect i have for women I would have slapped Halima right there and then with what i saw,

Jadwa was kneeling there crying her eyes out and Halima was standing there scolding her,

"What In gods name is happening here?" I asked and immediately Jadwa got up and left without saying anything to me,

"Sannu da zuwa yaya" she greeted and I didn't even know what to say so I picked the landline and dialed numbers

"Bakaki" i said into the line

"Allah yaja za....." I didn't wait to hear the full whatever i just cut him off immediately

"The next time i see Halima inside my house will be the last day all the guards will be working in this palace" i said and dropped the phone immediately

I pointed at the door and just said "get out"

She knows me so well to even think of saying anything so she just whispered "I'm sorry" and left

"Sai anjima yaya" Jameela said getting up to follow her partner but I didn't even glance at her side i just pushed the bottom for the emergency lock

I took deep breaths and headed to jadwa's room

Jadwa

I instantly woke up from sleep with tears in my eyes because of the dream i was having,
