Twenty-seven minutes later.

Farah and Adam arrived at Malika's house. Farah led the way to the garden with Adam following her. She grabbed her phone from her bag and dialed Malika's number. "I'm in the garden," she said and hung up swiftly.

"Farah, what's going on?" Adam asked nervously.

"Just wait," she said without looking at him. In seconds Malika was standing in front of them. Farah and Adam were standing next to the pool and square table. Farah reached her hands to Malika who gave her the letter and looked at Adam. Farah grabbed a pen from her bag and signed the letter, she moved her eyes to meet his and said, "Sign here." she handed the pen and the letter to him.

He took the letter and read what was on it. "You're firing me!!" Adam shouted furiously— Farah nodded calmly with no sign of emotion on her face— "are you insane?!" Adam's voice was very loud it broke the quietness of the house catching the attention of everyone inside. Seconds later Malika noticed that everyone was in the garden; her parents, Farah's parents and some of their friends. Malika wanted to warn her, but she wasn't listening. "what the hell is wrong with you?!" Adam shouted again.

"How long it will be to end this play?" Farah said in a calculated voice and frowned face. Her words tricked something inside of him; he began to sweat heavily. Farah got her phone from her bag and played a voice message between Adam and another girl.

"Baby…I can't believe you're really marrying this idiot! How much time will it take to end this nonsense?" a soft female voice said.

"You know how much I hate being here without you, but we have to finish it to get what we want." Adam Looked at Farah in shock as his recorded voice echoed the quietness of the garden. "Farah let me explain," Adam said with his voice shaking.

"What was that?" Malika asked, pointing at the phone between Farah's hand.

"Apparently prince charming here is still talking to his ex-girlfriend Nadia and he saved her number by his sister's name—"

"—No! It's not true! It's all fake! I love you!" Adam said loudly even though his voice was shivering.

"—both agreed on a plan for Adam 'the charming prince' to marry me and by the time he will take as much money as possible from me, starting with working at my company then convincing me to put loads of money in his bank account because you know… I love him and will do whatever he says and by that, he would be rich enough for Nadia's family to finally accept him." Farah was weirdly calm.

Everyone gasped while Malika opened her mouth from the shock and looked at him in disbelief. On the other hand, Adam was sweating harder and his face was hot red. He tried to speak but Farah stopped him.


"Did you really think that I would give you money?" Farah said sarcastically and handed the pen to Adam to sign. "I will make sure that you won't get any pound from me or my family, no one in this country will hire you. Keep this in your mind, Baby," Farah said, moving her hair behind her ears.

Adam signed the letter with shaky hands. Farah took it and gave it to her father to sign. "Papa, sorry for bothering you." she gave it to him and looked at her aunt and uncle. "congrats on the new hospital, Sorry for ruining your night." Farah smiled at them and looked at her parents; they looked enraged. Malika called Samir; the security man to get Adam out of the house.

Layla told the guests to get inside to continue their evening leaving Farah and her parents alone in the garden. "What just happened?!" Murad, Farah's father was outraged.

"He lied to me, that's what happened." Farah wasn't feeling herself; she was breathing hard; trying her best not to cry.

"Why did you bring him here? Couldn't you wait till morning?" Murad said angrily.

"Would it make any difference?!" her father's reaction surprised her.

"You humiliated us in front of everyone," Pakinam shouted at her. Farah looked at both with her eyes wide open not believing her own ears.

"It's your fault"— Murad lighted a cigar— "he was your choice; how could you be that stupid! How could you let all of this happen? I can't believe how much you are a failure, you embarrassed me and your mother! you don't even use your mind. Fix this mess and whatever you're going to do, I don't want you coming to me with this EVER AGAIN!"

Murad turned around and went back inside. Farah looked at her mother hoping she won't blame her, but she left her standing alone in the garden after telling her how disappointed she was. Malika waited inside and listened to what happened and when Farah was alone, she stepped outside.

Farah sat next to the pool closing her eyes and breathed heavily. "Are you okay? I tried to tell you they were standing behind you." Malika took a chair to sit next to her.

Farah was quiet with the same blank reaction on her face. "it didn't matter"— she put her hair in a ponytail— "They would yell either way." Malika hugged her. "can I borrow your car?" Farah said and hugged her back.

"Why?" Malika said and broke the hug.

"I'm so tired I want to go home."

"No, I'm not letting you go anywhere," Malika said and held her hands.

"I'm tired; I need to sleep," Farah whined.

"You can sleep here," Malika said and smiled fondly at her. Farah stared at her. "Fine, but I'm not letting you drive, I will tell Samir to drive you." Farah opposed yet Malika insisted. She called Samir to get her car ready, he was about to drink tea with the other security man and two of the maids.

Samir went to the car and told Malika that the keys weren't inside. Malika remembered that she put them in her bag. One of the maids stood up to get the keys but stopped when Malika told her that she will get them herself.

Farah was watching them silently and when Malika was inside the house; Farah's phone ranged— It was an unsaved number— "Weirdo." a husky deep man's voice said on the other side with an Australian accent.

"Noah?! That's not your number"— Farah looked again at the phone screen— "That's a UAE number."

"I'm in Dubai, I just landed and bought a huge chocolate bar… it reminded me of you," Noah said jokingly.

"Good"— Farah's deep and hard breath sounded loud— "Are you near Jumeirah beach?" she said suddenly.

"Why? What's wrong?" his voice got serious and worried.

"Can't tell you on the phone, meet me in five hours at the beach."

"Five hours! Mate are you okay?" Noah didn't understand what was that urgent for her to take a flight out of the blue just to talk.

"I will call you when I land." Farah ended the call right before Malika entering the garden to give Samir the keys. "I'm going to Dubai now," Farah said and stood up. Malika didn't react to what Farah said only gave her a hug.

"Oh, poor thing, you must be very tired." Farah smiled at her and rode the car and after Samir drove outside the house gate; she told him to drive to the airport.

**

Farah's phone vibrated, startling her. She took the phone out of her pocket to see Lena's name on its screen. She canceled the call and wiped her remaining running tears. A quick text followed the call; it was also Lena informing her that everything was ready for the urgent meeting.

"Farah," a female voice called her from far. Farah looked away from her phone that vibrated again— the voice sounded odd— it felt like it came from within her head not out loud. "Farah," the voice called again.

She turned back still holding her phone, she saw a woman wearing a white long dress with long sleeves, she had bright red long hair that covered her back and she was wearing a pearl crown. The woman was standing across from Farah. She was about to open her mouth but stopped when her phone vibrated again; it was another text from Lena informing her that their lawyer called her and wanted to talk to her as soon as possible.

Farah looked immediately at the phone's screen and called Lena fast then looked up again at the direction of the woman, yet she was gone. She frowned and looked around to find herself completely alone on the rooftop. "What the hell was that?" she said.

As she was about to walk; another voice stopped her. A deep female voice that sounded like it didn't belong to this world, a voice she heard before. She turned her head to the back to see the face belongs to that mighty voice… what she saw terrified her.
