Iqraam
"Ammi, i think we need to head in" i said and she smiled at me
The sun was high up in the sky and we were seated at the beach houses on water
"Just a little longer?" she asked me and i nodded
i was talking to Grover, my racing manager.
it was about the upcoming Christmas race
"Iqraam?" said ammi and i turned to her
"Yeah?" i asked her leaning back on my beach chair
her shades were on her head and her eyes were closed
this place was reserved meaning no one was allowed here except for my family
Iqra was out with Nabaahat and Nafaasat while Naaman was out with father
"Iqraam, i am sorry-" she said and i set up instantly
"What? why, mah?" i asked her
she smiled and set up facing me
"I lied... all these years, but i promise Iqraam i did not mean to hurt any of you!" she said hastily
"No mah, its not your fault, you always did the best for both of us!" i said and she sighed
putting her head in her hands, she closed her eyes once again
thats when i noticed how much my mother was aging
her forehead had wrinkled and her eyes seemed tired out
she seemed stressed out herself!
"Mah, lets leave it, shall we? Whatever happens, happens by the will of Allah, we cant change that at all" i said and she peered through her lashes
almost like a child!
i smiled at her
"Iqraam, i need to explain something to you before its too late-" she said and i heaved a deep sigh
"mah, you don't, it was your choice-" i said and she stopped me
"Please hear me out-" her voice cracked and i felt something inside me twitch
i cant see my mother cry-
never
"Mah, alright, i am listening, jus- just dont cry" i said and she smiled weakly
sitting up straight she looked out to the open ocean
"I am not divorced to your father" she said
what?
"Yes, its true, he just left, he is still my husband and i gave him permission to marry- you were 2 years that time.... then he left, after making a promise- i- i made him promise me something- " she said
she looked down at her fidgeting hands
"I made him pro-promise he- he will never come back to see his son.." she said
Ummmmm, WHAT THE HELL?
"Ammi i know you are protecting him, so please don't-" i said and she shook her head
