It was two weeks since Syed and Amira got married, they just arrived back, everyone around the square asking how it was and how it was like too be finally married, Amira was excitied happy and in love; but Syed his mind was far from happiness, far from love and far from reality he couldn't understand it was two weeks why couldn't he get him out of his mind why couldn't he just let the past lie and look forward to the future with his wife he knew it was just a game too make everyone else him know he was far from it?
Amira put her hand on Syed's face to see if he was ok he seemed on edge ever since they got back too the Square but who could blame him, his own mother Zainab fount out the truth about her son and Christian having an affair.
Amira: Syed are you ok you seem...quiet.
Syed: Yeah, yeah i'm fine just abit jet lagged that's all.
Amira: As long as that's all it is.
Syed: Yeah course.
Syed and Amira walked hand in hand towards the Masood household where Tamwar, Masood and Zainab were awaiting by the door smiles were placed on both Tamwar's face and Masood; but Zainab she couldn't forget what had happened on the wedding day and just lightly smiled at Amira and gave Syed looks that could kill.
They sat in the lounge where chat was expressed how everyone said what a lovely service it was, when Syed and Amira left and how they never experienced anything like that before and glad they attened it.
Syed couldn't bare to hear about the wedding he just thought about his Christian, the only person he could truly be in love with, his hearts desire was Christian.
Syed walked into the kitchen and let out a few tears but he knew his mother was behind him this was it another couple of her snide comments.
Zainab: Syed what are you doing, you should be in there enjoying the company of Amira, your wife.
Syed: How can I mum...tell me how, i'm just living a lie I can't make her happy i can't pretend know more my heart's not in it.
Zainab: You just need some more time Syed, that,....that it didn't matter then and it dosen't matter know time that's all you need.
Syed: It feels like I have had all the time in the world mother, I don't want too pretend anymore I can't.
Zainab: What are you trying to say Syed...
Syed: I love Christian and I want too be with him,...... I'm sorry.
Syed headed out the backdoor, before Zainab could persuade him too think things through before he did anything drastic but it was too late it looked like his mind was made up?
