Never Yours : Allah Knows Best

part 20

_" imad i have to go , see you soon " . 

_" this quick ? you will come tomorrow right ? " .

_" yes ..no ...i don't know , goodbye  " .

i wasn't at all paying attention to what he was saying , okba disturbed me with his dark glare.

_" mira ? " i heard his voice behind me 

how did he got here so quick 

_" ah yes i am coming " i started moving toward the car but he stood there unmoving 

he was staring  at imad 

_" your colleague ? " he asked pointing out with his head in an arrogant way 

_" he is ....." i started but been cutted by imad 

_" i study with her , and you are ? " he said with the same arrogance 

_" her husband " he went straight to it

imad looked at me with wide eyes , no one at uni knew that i was married or anything i didn't tell anyone to avoid questions ... It was hard for me to accept it

he stood there blinking few times and nodded his head slowly as if to absorb the information 

_ " let's go home " said okba turning me around 

i followed him irritated  while he opened the passenger door 

i stood before him trying to puzzle out the reason behind his attitude but he deviated his eyes as soon as mine met his 

_" get in" he said before walking  to take his seat 

_" how did you know i finished ? " .

_" i didn't " he said coldly 

and there was radio silence for long minutes 

he gazed for a moment at my hands before finally speaking a full sentence 

_" why are you not wearing your ring ? " he asked 

_" what ring ? ". he looked at me raising a questioning brow 

_" your weeding ring ! " .

_" oh ....".

i didn't know what to say because i have taken it off long ago 

_" why should i wear it? you are not even wearing yours to begin with ".
I remarked

Suddenly he stopped the car parking on the side and took off his security belt  , he then looked at me and leaned my way  , his actions were so quick and i couldn't move away.

he opened up the chest and took out a small box that contained his wedding ring 

still leaning in he wore it while starring at me with a gaze that disturbed me 

_" are we good now ? " he said before going back to his place

he continued driving as if nothing happened leaving me in a weird position 

he gave me a half look with a mocking smile on the corner of his lips 

it was his pleasure to make me uncomfortable and he knew it 

i hated giving him that  power ...............

_" come "  he stopped beside a grand store 

_" where ? ".

_" you need some clothes right ". he said looking me  up and down 

i was dressed in one of my old outfits that i found that morning in the apartment
