(Friday the 2nd of october)
It was late in the night and I woke up for a midnight snack to eat and water to drink
"Stella, S. T. E. L. L. A" I called her out as I wanted her to escort me to the kitchen for water, but I did not hear any response whatsoever
"Stella" I called her name as I sat down properly on my bed, I then stroke it towards her side and there was no one there, so I decided to follow my dream and check her out in the room close to ours
I stood up and clean my eyes from sleep as I wanted to be sure of whatever I saw, so I went closer and closer to the room in which she I believed she was in, and so I slowly opened the door and what I saw shocked me to the core.
But I was still greatly thankful to God for not making my dream come true, completely tho, it was Stella mourning like a dog who just got hit, she was screaming as he continued to thrust her under the bedsheet, I could not see Stella, but I could hear her sound from under the sheet as she begged him to continue thrusting deep Into her, but thank God I did not see her but all I could see was a one of Muhammad's house help, and he was the one on her.
I was not disappointed anymore as I did not blame her for not being able to close her legs anymore, because I do believe that she was once sex trafficked and that was not something you can stop overnight I believe. And besides she was not a Muslim nor was she a Christian and so if she did not believe in any God what she was doing right now was not bad at all if you think of it.
But at east I knew she was not fucking Muhammad and that was enough to make me happy, I locked the door as I went to the kitchen to get the water, I saw some maids cooking, and so I had to ask the time.
"What's time" I asked as she stopped what she was doing to look at her wristwatch
"It's 5:45am" she said as she continued cooking
And there I was thinking it was still midnight because the day was bright, but still I had sleep in my eyes and I had about one hour of sleep to catch up to before breakfast, and so I went to me and Stella's room to get a head go on sleep before the day broke.
(Two hours later)
I woke up today with a big headache, damn my head hurts like fuck and there is nothing I can do about it. We were still in Muhammad's house, and today I did not want to engage in any conversation whatsoever with the two of them. I mean how long have they been having an affair, who knows.
"Morning love" Stella said as she walked out of the room to only God knows where
"Morning" I said as I shrugged my shoulders at what she said and slowly answered her greetings
"Hi, sorry about earlier today about what you saw" she said as she disappeared from my view, and so I did not even bother to answer her
It took a while after she left before she came back to the room, I was still angry at her for what she did in earlier today but like I said earlier it was not her fault. How could she do that, but I guess I was never supposed to be shocked, and it was not like we had anything in common. "Shit" I just realized that we were never close and Stella and I hardly talked, but I guess this was something I should have known.
"Habit I am back loved" Stella said as she came back and was waiting for me to come and open the door for her
"Oh" I said as I stood up and went to open the door for her
"Thanks" she said as I helped her and collected some food stuffs from her
She sat down beside me on the floor as I was just famished and all I did want was to have breakfast and go back to sleep.
"Habiba that girl in that book again is she Maryam?" Stella started to talk with me with a mouth full of rice and fried plantain.
"Yes she was" I said as I'd not show any interest in the conversation and I thought she could fell it
"How did you guys meet?" Stella asked me again this time her mouth was empty, and she wanted an answer faster.
"Well I have never meet her before, but my mom and dad told me that we were best friends, and we were very close to one another" I said as I put a full spoon of rice inside my mouth
"Oh, okay well Maryam" she paused as she tried to remember something, she continued "Maryam was a very nice and lovely girl, I did like her she was such a wonderful and special girl" she said as she puts another spoonful of food into her mouth
"Whatever" I said as I did not bother to look at her side because I knew she was not going to give me a good facial expression anyways
"Habiba, I am sorry about earlier today, please don't allow what you saw drift you and me, and besides don't forget that we are In the same team okay, don't ever forget that love" she said as she looks deep into my eyes as she chews the remaining food in her mouth, her mouth was nearly empty then she filled it with another spoon full of rice and plantain.
"I have heard, and I am sorry for the way I acted, but this is really hard for me to dives I hope you know that right" I said as I continued to eat my meal and not give a fuck about what she was saying or doing
"I wish Maryam and Divine were both here to see us" she said as she looked up in the sky, like she believes there were both in there
"Maryam is dead?" I looked shocked as I asked her this question, even if I have asked mom and dad this before I still did not believe what ever they told me, and so I just needed to confirm it and Stella is doing exactly that for me.
"Of course love she is dead according to the guys, Maryam died not up to four months ago, she was a really wonderful girl, and she was also a caring and risk taking girl, and I liked her for that" she said as she tries to clean tears that were never in her eyes
"Maryam is dead?" I said repeating my last sentence as I was still shocked by the news she is giving me right now, I thought mom and dad lied to me about her death, but Stella just confirmed it, and this means that it is over, me looking for Maryam was over, but still I did think we could do something better, I did think that finding her was doing to help me gain my memories back as we did things no one knew of, but that was not possible at all so I thought but that was just a barbaric belief of mine.
"Yes love, Maryam Is dead, and there is nothing we can do about it, we just have to accept it and no e forward from there" she said as she looked at me with sad eyes and that only made me believe that she was telling nothing but the truth.
"Maryam is dead?" I asked again For the third time in a role and this was no coincidence of any type.
"Yes Habiba, don't take it hard on your self-love, she died in a fatal car accident one day on her way to school, her corps was rushed to the hospital, but she was just declared dead by the doctor in the hospital and that was all they did, the body was brought into the hospital late and there was nothing the doctors could do for her anymore, her body was kept in the hospital for a while because police tried to see if it was a planned accident since she was the only victim that died as the others survived with scares tho" she said as she drinks the last cup of water and tries to clear her mouth from the stains of the food that was in her mouth
"H. m. m" I was speechless as I did not have what to say, but mom and dad told me that her body was found beyond taken as they were not able to carry her body to the burial ground, so why is Stella's story different.
