When I get back home yesterday,I was so tired and went to bed immediately without taking my dinner
It was a beautiful morning again and I woke up around 6:38am, yesterday outing was taking it toll on me,I sluggishly walk to the bathroom and thank God Samimah wasn't there,I brushed my teeth and performed my ablution,I went back to room and prayed the morning prayer
"You woke up late today"Samimah said when she entered the room holding a cup of tea
"I was tired"I said folding the prayer mat
"I guessed as much,you just went to bed like that and we didn't came home together"she sat on the bed
"I went out"I said removing my dress,tying wrapper
"With who?"
"Jaffar"
"Seriously?"she was shocked"where did you go?"
"Cold stone"I shrugged like it was no big deal
"Cold stone?,on a date?"she winked
"No no no just went out as a friend and please stop asking too much questions I'm late already"
"I can see"she eyed me up and down and I threw pillow at her face yearning her a roar of laughter
I went to the bathroom and had my bath,I wore my school uniform and went to the kitchen,I met dad washing the plates
"You shouldn't do that"I said standing next to him
"Good morning"he smiled at me and I realized I haven't greet him
"Good morning Dad how was your night?"I have becoming more comfortable talking with him
"It was fine, yours?"
"Same,you shouldn't be washing plates,let me do it"I offered
"Don't worry about it and get something to eat"
"Where's mom?"I asked
"She is resting in her room,she is not feeling well"
"What's wrong with her?"
"It's nothing to worry about"he looked away from me continuing what he was doing
"It's something I should worry about,I have been getting this feeling for a long time that something is wrong"I decided to say my mind
"Why don't you let it rest"he said calmly with no emotions
"You know as far as I am part of this household I'm still going to know and by then I will feel betrayed or unimportant"I was holding my ground
"Fine"he heaved"she is badly sick and need chemotherapy treatment"
"Okay,hope she will get better"I don't know what's the meaning of chemotherapy but I don't think it is something that bad
"We pray so"he smiled sadly
"I will check her in her room"he nodded and I left
I knocked the door and she permitted me to come inside,I don't know how to feel due to the other day I heard her conversation about me with Dad
"Good morning"I greeted politely
"Morning"she turned facing the other side of the bed
This woman truly don't like me
"How was your night,I came to check on you since you are not feeling fine"I was nervous
"I'm getting better"she was still not ready to face me
