——————Los Angeles International Airport, California.
—————————Next morning, 7:00am Sunday morning.
" Zarah you should head to your home, come to work tomorrow by 9:00am" I said as I hurriedly walked out of the airport. I had enough sleep in the plane and all I needed to make my breath fresh were some mints, I could take a bath later on. " Okay sir, Mother you should go with Sophia, make sure Brandon is okay" I said to mother. My car was ready for me and the company van was going to take Mother and Sophia to our family house.
Sophia was already here. " Zarah, you can follow us, we can drop you off at your place"
" uh ma'am don't worry it's fine"
" Don't be shy come on let's go" Mother insisted until she finally agreed and the driver helped them place their luggage in the trunk.
" Khalid" I heard Sophia call as I walked with Mother

—————Los Angeles, California.——————————Olyster textiles, 6:50am." Good morning Mr Olyster, I got you coffee and a croissant, you probably didn't have a decent breakfast this morning" Zarah was being nice. Scary. I literally didn't sleep last night, I was busy estimating funds and going through the names of people who were lost from the explosion. It was too much. Mother moved in with Sophia after we went over to the mansion. He still sent us all away. I was honestly scared of Brandon going crazy. The man didn't deserve that. He was a victim of all this. Mother packed her clothes and important documents and left with Sophia to their home. I was all alone in my condo again. " you brought me breakfast?, how nice"" well cause I knew you ate nothing since you stay alone now, Mama Zainab told me. You should eat before heading to

Well Zainab told me she and her husband are getting their marriage annulled and that Khalid doesn't work at their family business any longer" Ummah said as I stuffed my mouth with sweet papaya. I was soon going to declare papayas as my favourite fruit after mangoes, pineapples and watermelon. They were all so delicious and refreshing especially when they were chilled.Ummah had finally contacted Mama Zainab. They were cool now, I talked to Mother a bit after the incident at our place when Khalid and Mama Zainab were still in Malaysia.

All I wanted was to see my children happy and have the best in this life no matter what. But here Fauziyyah was, crying and locking herself up for days. She wasn't eating properly and she wasn't talking to anyone.I knew she was feeling horrible for not being able to save her daughter. That was exactly what I felt. I felt like I had no reason to move on until I realized I was actually being a bad mother to Farouk.Two days had passed from the dreadful incident where Najmah was lost. To watch your daughter get burnt right in front of your was enough to make you go completely insane. The pain of not being there for her, the pain of not being ab

But Alhamdulillah, my family was around to support me. I managed to convince Khalifa to go back to Dubai and he did yesterday. Alhamdulillah. I replied all the well wishers and I called up Khalifa's family in Nigeria.Everyone was glad I was doing fine.They were mostly impressed. I was impressed about myself as well.

-------------------Los Angeles, California.-----------------------------------Khalid's Condo, next morning, 10:00am.ZarahI stood patiently waiting for Khalid outside his condo after knocking on his door.The poor guy was still sober after losing his job and of course he was feeling horrible now after losing his daughter. The cute little baby I saw back in Malaysia was killed in a bomb blast. Some people were honestly heartless and cruel. A lot of people were lost in the bomb blast and according to sir Khalid, the person's cause for doing this was all for revenge.This was something Pa Alejo would do.I spent sometime with him when he lost his job, when we both lost our jobs. He thought I was going to be able to help him get a creative business idea but we still had nothing. We hung out from time to time, he also helped me look for where I could

-------------- Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur.----------------------------Same day, 1:00pm." she still doesn't want to talk?" my voice shook as I stopped pacing outside the questioning room and stood to hear what the detective in charge of Najmah's kidnapping case had to say. " She still won't budge, we're going to use on force on her now" he answered and my blood began to boil as I looked through the glass window and my eyes met that of miss Hae Soo's minion.She knew something about Najmah and she didn't want to say anything. My daughter was only eight months old, she needed her mother by her side. Storming into the questioning room and beating her up till she spoke was going to help my anger subside. " Tell me where my daughter is" I snapped as I flung my hand with full force across her face. " Tell me where she is" I yelled my rage out and pushed her from the chair she was sitting to the floor and kicked her right in the stomach. Sh

Yes and I'm not at fault for not saying anything, I didn't know that the person who raised Zarah was ever going to work with the green viper and besides I promised her that I wasn't going to tell anyone about it" Mother answered as she collected Kimberly from Sophia's. We all sat round a table in Sophia and Ethan's patio, trying to enjoy the morning breeze and talking." She went through one hell of a life, to be honest, if I were in her shoes, I wouldn't want to involve myself in all these problems we're facing" Sophia commented as she munched a cookie. " Yeah, all I'll want is to be at peace" Ethan backed up his wife and I rolled my eyes at the both of them." That's a selfish desire" My a

Farouk asked as I quickly booked a flight to LA. I honestly thought I wasn't going to have to ever go back there." No, Faryah was smart enough to locate her number while they were talking, of course the Miss Hae whatever doesn't know that she tracked her and her network was good" Raihannah answered.Abbah had informed the police of our new findings and they were on their way here.
