Sworn Sisters

CHAPTER ELEVEN

Recap

" of course, she will leave! " Faisal said

" NO ONE IS LEAVING "

Heads turn towards the door where the owner of that booming voice was standing. " no one is leaving " Habeeb repeated

Present

Faisal glares at his brother "Just stay out of this Habeeb. This has got nothing to do with you"

Habeeb took a long stride towards them. He spares a glance at Kalthum who also is surprised to have a second supporter. His gaze then met that of his brother's angry ones " I meant what I said, Faisal"

" What is this to you? You don't even know why we're sending her packing and the funniest of all is that you only got to meet her for the first time in the study room! It's not like you've known her before so please explain why you're standing up for her, I don't get it " a confused Faisal stated

Habeeb released a calming breath " I know this has something to do with the video clip but that aside, please don't send her packing "

" Why shouldn't I?" Faisal glared challengingly. Even Kalthum and Nanny were also eager to know his reasons. Habeeb has never stood up for a maid before so why is this different?

Habeeb was aware of the six pairs of eyes on him. His gaze met that of Kalthum's again trying to see if truly she doesn't remember him. Her expression gave nothing away, she stood looking confused like the others.

" Go on we are all ears" Faisal snapped him out of his thoughts " and please don't tell me you're one of her clients because that will be another reason why she should leave. " Faisal heard a loud gasp beside him and he knew whose it was but he didn't care.

" Look I just think we all need to calm down. " Umm, Rasheed finally interfered. But she wouldn't deny the fact that she wants to know Habib's reason for not driving the poor girl.

" No nanny he needs to say it. The more I know about his reason the more I know who this prostitute girl is and how harmful she might be in this house. You all know that I hate when I'm being told what to do so Habeeb needs to let us all know whether he was also one of her clients" Faisal vented out " wouldn't be surprised to know that anyway"

Why is he getting angry? Faisal's inner self scolded.

Habib wasn't even bothered by his brother's abusive words, he took it calmly. He gave a small smile and said "This is between Kalthum and I. If you don't want her as your maid I think it's my cue to make her my maid then. What do you think BROTHER? "

" PLEASE you two should stop all this drama" Umm Rasheeed couldn't take it anymore " Habib you can't just come in acting like a Samaritan without giving us all an explanation. We both know that you don't know Kalthum so why are we all making a fuss about all this? This innocent girl is already scared of getting sacked but now, you all are already adding more sauce to her problems "

Faisal rolled his eyes " Really nanny? Do you still believe that this girl is innocent? Why can't all of you just let her leave? Just look at us for instance, she is already causing a rift without lifting a finger. What more can we expect from her? Let her leave and her sister will stay. After all, she is the one we're having a problem with not the sister "

" No Faisal, I think you are the only one having a problem with her not us so please speak for yourself " Habeeb retorted. The two brothers stood glaring at each other.

" In my study room now " Faisal commanded his brother and left. The latter knew not to disobey, it's not like Habeeb was going to lose anything if he didn't obey but out of his respect for his brother he complied.
