She ran with all her might scared shitless. The night was Already dark and quiet with no sign of a soul outside. She turned left and right for help but no one was outside to save her from the dog chasing her. Her legs was becoming weak with each step she took.
The dog was a few inch close to her when a car came speeding towards her direction with the tyres screeching . The car finally came to a halt and the man driving the car quickly came out of in worried for the terrified girl. That was when he saw the giant dog just a few inch away from her with his tongue out ready to have a bite of her flesh.
She ran to hold his hand tightly " please save me " she was terrified.
The man only nodded then took the stick not far from where he was standing. He went forward to drive the hungry dog away.
" he is finally gone, now you've got nothing to be scared of " he smiled charmly at her.
She raised her eyes to meet his but
The first thing that came to her mind when she entered was 'the incident at the hotel'.Kalthum quite knew or already knew that this is what this meeting was all about. It was bound to be raised and she prays it won't cost her her job." You asked for me sir? " she said.He raised his head up to meet her eyes.Kalthum couldn't look at his direction. Like before,her head was down. She was ashamed to. She knew she shouldn't be ashamed because she didn't do anything bad but he doesn't know that. Sir Faisal thoughts of her is different.The bashing she received from halima even made it more believing." yes I did. Come have a sit " he gestured" ok" she moved forward to sit on the chair. " I'm sorry sir for fainting earlier on "" let's cut the chase short young lady. I'm sure you know why I reacted the way I did before you fainted? "She shifted on her seat " ye-s yes sir.

Finally Kalthum's two days of freedom was now over. Which means she is finally starting her duty today after the two days breaks she had just to be strong from her sickness. She had waited for this day because boredom was killing her alone in her room.She dressed into her maid uniform which was given to her by Umm rasheed the senior maid. Already, Basma has long gone to her work post which is the parents side of the mansion. Yes, Basma was placed among other maids to work in the big boss 's side of the mansion. The big Dantata himself. But if she gets lucky she can be changed to Habeeb's room. It's so sad to say that the parents prefer to have their own section separated from the children's own. What a parent they are. They only meet whenever they are about to have breakfast, lunch or dinner.As for Kalthum she is in charge of Faisal's room. Surprising right?. Faisal prefers it like that so he can keep an eye on her. The whole set up of a thing actuall
The twins finally came down stairs for breakfast. The sight they saw immediately they got down was expected. The fact that they were getting use to their parents cold shoulders doesn't add up that they liked it. They've come accustom to that fact already. Just like any normal human being it still pains them.They stared at each other sadly.Hassana led the way first then hussaina follows. Umm ABDULRASHEED had already made their special cuisine for them. Spaghetti.Immediately they took their seat, the maid incharge of the kitchen quickly came out to serve their food the way they normally do. Any slight mistake, the maid is in trouble. After the two maids were done, they decided to go back to the kitchen and wait till the twins finish their meal as usual." Hussaina have I told you about this useless girl that was brought to my department? " hassana started a conversationHussaina rolled her eyes " No you haven't. what did she do? "
...Faisal have been having a rethink of what his brother Habeeb told him. 'You need to get a life. Live for once ' those lines kept echoing in his head.He won't deny that he actually agreed with habeeb but how can he get a life when he has so many responsibilities on his shoulders?First on the list are his sisters. He can't just leave them all on their own and Habeeb isn't one that is always around. Although Faisal understood his reasons for all the countless travel. Rasheeda's death did took a toil on him.He rubbed is forehead tiredly,an headache is beginning to develop. Why wouldn't it,when he has been thinking since he got here. He closed his laptop and decided to call it a day. Faisal had somewhere to be. That place is just like a second home to him.He got into his car and off he went. The ride was a thirty minutes ride because of how far the place was from his work place. He smiled when he took note of the little toddler who
" well, I just hope you have a better reason for why you're behaving like a thief or rather should I say you're about to meet a lover?" Faisal all dressed up in his work clothes folded his arms and waited for her answer.Kalthum gasped then turned around to come face to face with him" a thief ? a lover? "" yes a thief or a lover" he told her challenginglyShe swallowed quietly " Sir- I ju_st" you just what? Just say it already and stop wasting our time "His attitude towards her was beginning to annoy and irritate her at the same time " I just came to get water and chips"" oh wow " he said pretending to be amused " never knew you are a glutton. I can't imagine how you'll finish those chips just tonight. " he pointed at the four packet of potatoe chips in her hand." I'm not a glutton sir " she gritted out" oh really?! Then what are you? "" If it really bothers you that I took four potatoe chips
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 repeatedPresentFaisal 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 spare 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 statedHabeeb's released a calming breath " I know this have something to do with the video clip but that aside, please don't send her packing ""
.....The tears flow freely down her face. what have she done wrong? Kalthum questioned herself. Why can't Basma stop this nemesis she is trying to build?They are siblings for Allah's sake!The cold breeze tickles her skin. Kalthum relaxed herself to the chill weather.She hugged herself and went on to sit on the bench close to the garden. She needed to clear her head coz she doesn't trust herself if she had stayed in that room with her sister. Some sister she has.She took in a deep and calming breath. An idea came to her. It's high time she give her best friend a call. some friend she is, Note the sarcasm. She brought out her phone and did as thought.Zaynab picked the call at the first ring, as if she has been expecting her calls." how dare you, you've been in that big house for what felt like weeks and you just decided to call me now! " zaynab shrieking voice came through" hello to you too "
