Diary of a broken heart

💘Chapter 17💘

Usman

I have heard that falling in love is the best feeling ever. But only if feelings are mutual, and not one sided like mine. This is real torture!!!

Ever since I fell for her, I became so restless and insecure. Like she's just everywhere! In my thoughts, in my dreams and everywhere. She just keeps on running on my mind.

Right now am laying on a mattress thinking about that damsel that stole my heart.
ZAHRA!!!!!!!!

"Manu! Manu!! Manu!!!" My annoying cousin Ismail yelled bringing me out of my reverie.

"What is it? I asked annoyedly while frowning my face.
He knows very well that I hate being addressed with that name.

You look worried Bro. What's troubling you?? Do you mind sharing???

It's nothing Bro. Am just a bit tired and am trying to solve some little issues. Don't worry.

Okay ooo... If you say so but if you ever need a listening ear, am always here.

After resting for a while, we went strolling with Ismail. Where he kept blabbing about his girlfriend Saratu.

If only he knew he was torturing me!!!!

Without thinking twice I decided to ask him.

"You see a friend of mine has this girl that he really likes but he doesn't know how to confront her talkless of confessing his feelings.
He and the girl are friends and he really doesn't want to loose her. So he asked for my advice and am not experienced in this aspect hence I have no clue on how to advise him. Can you help me with an idea??" I rambled.

He was quite and staring at me the whole time. Making me feel like I didn't do the right thing telling him.

"Was that the issue you wanted to solve??" He asked and I simply nodded.

IT'S ZAHRA. ISN'T IT???
SHE'S THE GIRL YOU LIKE RIGHT???

To say I was shocked is an understatement. How did he know???

"I saw how you looked at her. The way her smile makes you happy." He said while grinning.

There was a time I was like that with Saratu. I was also in the same predicament as you are.

"How did you overcome it??" I asked impatiently

I became her secret admirer first until I was sure she had feelings for me also then I revealed myself and vòila. He proudly stated smiling at God knows what 😂

But how can I do that????

Buy a new SIM card and don't register with any detail related to you. Text her everyday once or twice and never call her or answer her calls because she will definitely be curious to find out who you are. Always keep the phone off.
It's as simple as that!!!!

You think it will work???

Ofcourse it will so let's go get the tools ready. We are fighting a war of Love. And mind you, Don't mention this to anyone." He ordered looking dramatic

Thank you so much Ismail. I owe you and Saratu one.

We all laughed and headed for the phone shop and got everything ready.

I plan on starting tomorrow so we went swimming with Ismail and came back late.

After changing I was on my way to see my partner as I Missed her all day.

I saw her laughing at something Ya Zaid said.

"Ya Rabbi!! He even followed her here??" I thought.

On sighting me, she increased her pace and quickly went inside saying good night.

Baby!!! Did he just call her Baby?? The audacity!!!" I rolled my eyes mentally and walked away furiously.

I took my phone and texted her but no reply.
I knew she was awake so I texted again.

Her not replying left me with just one option. Which was to threaten her and vòila!! It worked..

Morning 🌄

I couldn't go back to sleep after fajr as I was busy trying to compose my very first love letter.

After several attempts, I finally got the perfect one.
I said Bismillah before pressing the send button.

I made sure the message was received before switching off the phone and finally laid to sleep.

After I woke up and had breakfast, I was eager and restless to know how she feels about the text.

I heard them saying something about strolling so I decided to join them.
Hoping that maybe she would mention something about the text.

I was very grateful to Mamu for bringing up the topic.

"I love only one person" I heard her say. Disappointment wasn't the word I should use.

It means she is already in love with someone. This means I have no chance at all.
But who could it be!!! Ya Zaid ofcourse. I've seen how they look all happy together.

She ran away from us while crying. I wanted to run after her and persuade her because seeing her in pain breaks me.
Ismail held my hand and squeezed it reassuring me that it's gonna be alright.

I followed her after a while and I saw her looking all happy with the man she loves.

That's it!!! My very own first love story doesn't work out.

I'll let you go Zahra!! If you're happy with Ya Zaid, then so be it. Only your happiness matters to me.

I went back to the room and laid down thinking about her. Okay love can be cruel!!!
