"I think the first one is better Aliya" I said as I picked up the popcorn she poured on her lap and I dropped it into the empty bowl

"Really?, I like the second one more" I heard her say as I dropped the bowl in the kitchen

We were halfway through Frozen 2 when Umar left to take a business call and he hasn't been back since then, I and Aliya finished watching it together

"Ya Hameeda?" Aliya called when I came back to the living room

"Yes Aliya"

"Can we swim in the pool in the backyard tomorrow?" She asked

"Sure, I've been wanting to go see it but I didn't have the time and if I do get time I forget " I told her

She grinned at me

Umar came in and he looked at the tv "it's over already?"

"Well, you took like half an second" I said sarcastically

He gave me a playful glare and I chuckled

His phone ringed and he picked it up

"Hello?...What?..Is she crazy?....I'm on my way" he said

He looked at me before he rushed out of the room

What?

"Umar!" I called

He refused to answer me as I heard the front door close

"Oh God" I said as I took my veil that was hanging from the arm of the sofa

I held Aliya's hand and we followed him out the house

We came out just to see him starting up
The engine of one of his cars

We rushed to the car

I opened the front seat and I entered before helping Aliya in, placing her on my lap

"What happened?" I asked when he drove out the gate

He sighed "you shouldn't have followed me"

"It doesn't matter, what happened?" I said as I frowned a little at the speed he was going

"Umar slow down a little" I said

"It's Nafisa" he said refusing to look at me

Don't tell me i entered this car because of her?

"What happened to her?"

"Auwal called me saying she was in her balcony threatening she'll fall over if I don't come"

Wow, i never thought she would be this dramatic

I didn't know what to say to him so I kept quiet

10 minutes of Umar driving like a maniac we arrived at a house which wasn't that far from ours

The security opened the gate and we entered into a nice looking house

There were people outside standing in front of the house and when Umar stopped the car I saw Nafisa with one leg over a balcony railing with a bottle of alcohol in her left  hand

Hauka (Madness)

Umar didn't wait another second before he dashed out of the car

They could just go up and drag her away from the balcony, it's not that hard you know

Why do they have to be so dramatic, Mtchw

I was contemplating weather to go out or not but my instincts told me to go out
