《A Billion Dollar Mistake》Chapter 13

I tried to relax and asked with a calm voice "Oh, I see, you must love this Omer then"
At the mention of that, her smile became wider "Yes of course. I love Omer so much that it hurts. It hurts not being near him, but I know it is for the best. I missed him so much, I just hope that he does not forget me, because I love him more than life itself ", after hearing this answer, I just gritted my teeth and tried to still stay relax. If I had a doubt, now I am sure. She loves that Omar guy. And just the thought of them two together made my heart beat so fast that I wanted to go out, find him and then punch him right on the face. He does not have the right to be in her heart, no other guy has the right except her family. I couldn't sit and not do anything, so I got up, taking my hands out of hers and got up to leave, so she wouldn't see my face
"Seriously? Where do you think you are going, I am not done treating your wrists. Why are you acting like my little brother Omar" And now, I am acting like that guy, Omar, that is just great. Wait did I hear her correctly?
"Your brother?" I asked, totally confused
"So you were not listening to me at all? This whole time I was telling you about him"
"Wait so that Omar guy wasn't actually a guy but a boy?"
"I never said he was a guy, now you are confusing me"
"Oh, I just thought" Realizing that I was wrong and was just dumb, I just stopped talking. I alone made the assumptions and now, it made sense. Of course she was talking about her family. She said Papa and Omar, and I remember that my father briefly telling me she has a little brother who is less than 10
"Thought what?" She asked, still confused
"That he was your boyfriend or something" I said acting nonchalantly
At the mention of that, she bursted out laughing
"Why are you laughing?"
"You are just funny. A boyfriend? I never thought about having one" she said still laughing
Okay, I guess I deserved that. But just the thought of her not having a boyfriend made me happy. Not that I like her or anything. So I sat again and let her do whatever she was doing. Also kept at the back of my mind to let her see her family often

"We are almost done" she said
"You should smile often, you look beautiful when you do so"
"Mr serious is complimenting me? I guess today is the end of the world after all"
I ignored that comment and just kept quiet.
"You are finally set" she said, smiling at her handiwork. I looked at my wrist and saw that it was bandaged, I know a certain someone who would enjoy seeing this. And I couldn't take it off, not to offend her. I guess I will just deal with him when the time comes.
I got up and went for the door, and she was right behind me.
"Um thanks for the wrist, and I didn't mean to, you know" I said pointing at her arms. she laughed again, I guess seeing me ashamed is really funny
"No worries" she said smiling
"Uhm, you have 20mn, to do your thing" I said referring to the prayer
"See you in 20mn" she said smiling. I went out of the door and straight to my room. What is wrong with me today?
I took my phone and called Tony
-(Tony) Hello
-(Me) Yeah it's me
-(Tony) Obviously, who else would call me from your phone?
-(Me) Anyways, I'll get to the point. I want you to pick up my wife's family and bring them right here, you can come with my father's driver so they would be able to have a drive back home
-(Tony) Do I have a choice?
- Um let me think, Nope you don't
-I knew it. When do you want it done?
-ASAP
-Han, I don't even get to say anything. But anyways gotcha
I hung up the phone and started taking my important stuffs, it was just my laptop, my documents, and few clothes that Mama Tasmeen forced me to bring, saying that I shouldn't waste my money on buying new clothes, if I already have a lot. I put them in the suitcase, and went downstairs to put it next to the door. I went back upstairs, after remembering that I left my phone. I took it and closed the room when I saw green eyes, all dressed up with a backpack and a suitcase, closing her door too.
We looked at each other and I went for her suitcase.
She started saying something, but went against it
We both went downstairs and once she stepped foot on the ground level, she dropped her backpack and ran toward a mini her, in a male version, who I guess is the famous 'Omar'. She hugged him with all she got and they were both talking at the same time, I turned around at this sight, knowing I would never have that, since I am an only child. Well, technically not an only child, I have a half sister that I see very rarely, because of her studies. The driver came and picked our suitcases. I nodded at him and gave him my car keys for him to put it in the trunk.

"You are human after all" I turned around after hearing this familiar voice
"Whatever"
"So what caused you to be this nice? Huh?Unless..."
"Unless what?" I asked now curious
"Are you having your man period?"
"What?"I asked not believing what I heard, I guess I should have expected something like this, knowing him
"Man's period..., that is when a man, you know what? Just forget I mentioned it" he said grinning like a fool
"Yeah whatever"
"Also, what's up with the bandage"
"Piss off Tony"
"Fine Zayn Malik, I will just leave you for now. But we should leave I think. But let her spend more time with her family. I think she should leave with Mike(the driver) and her family members. She can join us at the airport later"
"She is not going alone with Mike. On second thought, go with him to the airport and set everything, considering we are leaving early, and I will drive her family to their house."
"Not even a month after the wedding, and you are already overprotective, what a fun guy you are" he said sarcastically. What? I wasn't even being overprotective, I just wanted to make sure that she is safe, that's it, or maybe he is right, but just a little bit, and I was not going to argue with him. So I just ignored him and went to see green. I touched her arm slightly and she turned around.
"It is time to leave green" I said trying so hard to resist her pouting lips
"But, but,"
"You will be able to say bye, we are driving them first" I said pointing at her brother and dad.
"Sure", she said taking Omar's hand and going first in the car, leaving her dad behind. I could tell there was some kind of tension between them, and made a mental note to ask her about it later. Her Dad went after her and her brother and I followed them, taking the key from mike and going on the driver's side.
During the whole ride, she was talking to her brother. After a few minutes later, I was already in front of her house and I parked on the side. She got out of the car with her brother and I saw that she was still holding his hand. I saw her dad looking at her, for a few minutes before facing me
"I know for you this is just a contract, but please, I am begging you, treat her nicely. This girl you see here does not deserve any pain, she deserves the whole world. She is the sweetest thing ever, and even though she can not understand why I did what I did, I am still hoping she can forgive me one day. I am hoping she can be happy, and I believe that you can make her happy son. So please, please don't hurt her." Wow, I was not expecting this from her dad, but I guess it would be weird for us not to have that talk. But honestly, I already know all of this and I am disgusted with him, for the fact that he literally sold her
"You lost her the day you decided to sell her" I spat
"I know what I did can not be forgiven, and the only thing I can do now is hope she can be happy." I can not believe this man
"She will have all the money she wants, if that is what you were wondering" I said with gritted teeth
"I am not talking about that. Money is not everything, and I realized that too late. I hope you won't make the same mistake as me, I hope you won't push her away" He said, while getting rid of the only tear that fell out of his eyes. "Because you won't know the importance of what you have until you lose it" He said lastly, before opening his door and closing it behind him
