(music recommendation: Indila: Dernière Danse.
Jamal and Hafeez had talked and put their differences aside mainly because he loved Xhara so much that he allowed them to have a relationship.
Mr Malik was on his plane heading to the UK, and he was reminiscing as he sipped his grape juice (A/n: none of my characters except Jamal drinks alcohol which is why he acts unstable and Violent). Mr Malik looked out the window of the plane, 'All this you are doing isn't necessary, you can still turn back, let Asad be happy' The voices in his head started speaking, 'You have caused enough damage to him and his mental health let him breath' the voices spoke louder and louder until Mr Malik snapped. " Enough, you will not tell me how to live my life. My son agreed with me so he has to do as I FUCKING say" Mr Malik screamed while holding his head with both his hands "Shut up, shut up, shut up," he began throwing things on the ground he destroyed everything. After ranging and trashing the plane he slumped in a corner and started to cry (poor man☹️) While all that was happening Joshua just watched in silence, and soon Mr Malik fell asleep, Joshua walked over him and covered him with A quilt before leaving.
Soon they landed in the UK but it was already too late, Asad Was Long Gone. Mr Malik and his men however had no idea so they proceeded to go to his Neighborhood. It was a quiet neighbourhood so everyone was minding their business. Mr Malik entered the house and scanned it with his eyes and ears although he could feel the emptiness of the house he still ordered a" search this house, if you have to trash the house, go now" he barked. " yes sir" his men barked back.
Mr Malik sat on the couch and pulled out a locket from his neck, he stared at the photo as he spoke to himself "I'm so sorry my love, it's been so long, I don't even know where you are, if you're still alive or if you found a new lover". He sighed, the photo he was talking about was the photo of Asad and Hamida's mom, he continues " I should have told you about my mental health issues, maybe..... He paused as tears fell from his eyes." maybe you would still be with me" he looked at the photo and kissed it before he there it in the fireplace. " when I find you, I'm going to kill you, you bitch" he lighted the fireplace with the locket inside it." Joshua " he called" yes boss" he appeared out of nowhere " I want you to burn this house down... To ashes" his voice was devoid of any emotion " Yes sir" Joshua did as his boss instructed when they were all out of the house. Mr Malik stayed to watch the house burn but they started hearing sirens. Joshua who didn't want any trouble with the police spoke "Boss the police are coming" but the boss was not listening." boss if they catch us here we will be the main suspects ". Mr Malik scoffed at his words "Ohh Joshua I'm so scared, shiver mi timbers " his time was full of sarcasm, Joshua scratched his head in confusion "Watch and learn" As soon as the officer arrived, Mr Malik already had tears in his eyes.
Officer: Excuse me, sir, but Do you know what happened?
Mr Malik: *sniffling with tears in his eyes*" Well I came to visit my son but when I came the house was already ablaze "he said in a barely audible voice which made the officer quickly take pity on him.
Officer: okay we will wait for the fire truck to arrive, so they can quench the fire. We will look for your son, please don't cry sir" he said his voice full of sympathy. Soon the fire truck came and quenched the fire, and the police, and the fire department all launched into action leaving Mr Malik unattended.
"Joshua let go" he walked near the car, and Joshua was beyond flabbergasted "Hurry up," Mr Malik said as Joshua got into the car and could not get his mid-off what just happened 'my master is such a great actor' he thought in his mind and just like that they were gone.
when the police officers came out of the house "Well sir there was nobody," sir"? He looked but could not find Mr Malik "Where is the man," he asked the passersby who just ignored him." f*** he must have been the one who set the house ablaze" the officer finally realized and drove into the opposite direction Mr Malik drove in. while all that happened a friend of Asad who watched it couldn't believe his eyes. " oh my days I have to tell Asad ASAP" the young man said while walking away from the scene.
Asad and his people were about to land in Japan when Asad's satellite phone rang.
"an unknown number? " he picked up the call" Hello"
Abdin: Asad hello brother I saw some crazy s*** bro it's Abdin by the way.
Asad: what are you talking about slow down tell me what you saw
Abdin: I just saw your dad bro he bloody just brunt your house he set it ablaze
Asad: what?! Are you sure that it's my old man
Abdin: yes brother I'm certain 1000%
Asad: well I'm on my way to Japan you can meet us there" he then turned off the phone
Abdin was confused "What does he mean by us? Oh yeah, Vic and Halima too. He got on his motorcycle and drove to the airport.
since they got onto the plane Balira had not said a word and it worried a sad so he decided to make small talk." Balira, how are you feeling? " she smiled and sighed." I'm okay I guess, with all this running Around I don't know how I am supposed to feel" she got up and approached the cockpit...
(Peekaboo 2)
Asad watched as she walked towards the cockpit. He asked "Where are you going darling? " he used an endearment word to which she replied sarcastically "I'm going to the saloon" She walked off without sparing him another glance.
Asad was stunned, she didn't hear the endearment word he used for her. "And what's with the sarcasm? " he scoffed. Minutes pass and she's not back yet so he decides to rest his head. As soon as he did so, she came back. He didn't raise his head instead he peeped at her through half-closed eyes.
Balira looked at Asad who was sleeping ( or so she thought) she walked carefully towards him and took her bag in her hands to remove a tampon from it. She quickly but quietly left for the bathroom.
Asad raised his head "Oh so that's why she's so grumpy, aww" he decided to do something for her before she returned. He had some chocolate and juice on the plane so he took them out displayed them on a stool and went back to pretending he was asleep.
When Balira returned she halted to look at the display, "Why didn't I notice these?" she stared at Asad and moved closer to him.
She inched her face closer to inspect if he was sleeping or not and then. "Boo," Balira moved back and almost fell on her bottom but Asad caught her hand in time. When she was stable he smiled at her and said "I know I'm handsome dear wife, but you don't have to wait till I'm asleep before you oogle at me" She pushed him slightly and turned her back to him. "I wasn't oogling, I just wanted to see if you were asleep"
Asad smiled triumphantly "You were grumpy so I decided to do something to make you smile a little bit " he pointed at the chocolates, walked over and took one in his hand giving it to her. She snatched it from him and sank in his seat.
She glanced at him and he was already smiling to which she rolled her eyes. Opening and eating it she hummed in satisfaction. The chocolates were really good. Asad had already seated and looked at her with his head resting in his palm. She smiled at him "You want some?" she offered "Of course I'd love some" he walked over to her and leaned down, and before she knew it he had captured her lips. He kissed her and licked every corner of her mouth before letting her go. He stared her deep in the eyes and licked his lips "Tastes delicious ".
Walking back to his seat, he sat the way he did before with his eyes not leaving hers. Balira's eyes darted everywhere, she didn't wanna meet his gaze. why are you shy in my presence? ". She gave him an awkward smile. "I'm not shy it's just well because you're my new husband and all these things are .... new to me and well you... you're very handsome"
She said with her cheeks burning.
"well, thanks for the compliment" Soon the atmosphere became quiet.... but Halima saved the day.
"Boss we are about to land" Asad got up and walked towards to cockpit so he could land the plane.
Halima approached Balira and asked if she wanted anything to which Balira said no and also told her not to call her Miss and to address her with her first name.
They landed in Japan, and the lights were bright
"Wow these lights are blinding" Balira said covering her eyes. ....
They arrived at Asad's house and he decided to give Balira a tour.
She wasn't used to sliding doors so she was trying to accustom herself to them. Later, they had dinner which was in total silence, they hadn't said a word to each other since they were on the plane and Vic and Halima who were at the door were worried. "what's up with them? Are they not going to talk to each other?" Vic shushed her so that his master and mistress wouldn't hear. He dragged her to the kitchen but her words were picked up by Asad's ears. Asad was already done with his food while Balira still eating. He watched her eat, she messed up picking up the meat because of his intense gaze. you don't know how to use chopsticks?" she felt embarrassed, "Of course, I do it's just uhh... before she could say more he was already seated beside her "Alright I will feed you". He took the chopsticks from her, used them to pick some food and brought it near her mouth. She couldn't protest because of how serious he looked.
Defeated, she took the food without complaint. The Halima walked in on the cute scene "Oh um sorry I'll just see myself out" she turned but Asad stopped her "What did you come for?" she walked towards him and gave him the phone and quickly excused herself. He stared at the phone and told Balira that he would be back in a few minutes.
When he came back an hour had passed "I'm home" Balira quickly went to the front door to greet him but stopped when she saw an unfamiliar face.
"Woah," Abdin said as he laid eyes on Blairs
Abdin couldn't keep his eyes off this beautiful alien. Little did he know his actions were making Asad fume. "who is she, Asad".
Asad (possessive as ever) walked to her and held her by her waist before introducing her "Abdin, this is my wife. Balira this is my friend Abdin" Abdin shook his head "Correction you mean best friend and did you just say wife" he blinked a couple of times before he continued "Where is she from, when did you guys get married, I've never seen her before, why didn't you tell me"
Asad pinched the skin between his brows. "All I can say is it all happened so fast so I'll explain everything while we have some whine". Abdin nodded and followed him to his study so they could talk....
