Forever

Part eight

Safdar was quietly seething. Here she was with someone else. His sister turned to him and told him to do something. 

"Chammi, What is it?

"I want Jameel. Since we were children, you've gotten me everything I've wanted. So give me Jameel. He can't be hers. He's only mine."

Safdar and Chammi went and forced the two lovebirds apart.  Safdar pointed a gun at Jameel. "How dare you try and take what's mine?" Aaliyah shouted at Safdar "no safdar. Leave Jameel alone. It's my fault too. I love him too."

Safdar fired the gun. "You can't have what's mine." Aaliyah screamed as Jameel fell to the ground. Aaliyah ran over and tried to wake Jameel up. "Jameel, open your eyes. Please. Don't leave your Aaliyah."

"What have you done?" Aaliyah yelled at Safdar.

"I love you. I couldn't bear the thought of him taking you away from me."

"Love? You call this love. Love isn't taking, it's giving. If you truly love someone, you want them to be happy, even if that happiness doesn't include you. How dare you say you love me? Who gave you the right to love me? I never saw you that way."

Aaliyah ran over to Safdar and grabbed his gun. "Aaliyah, dont." "Wait for me Jameel, I'm coming." Safdar tried to stop Aaliyah as she pulled the trigger. She collapsed on Jameel.

Both Chammi and Safdar broke down crying.
