You should stop here. Mandy told the driver, he pack hoping that it's just Noor that will get down but Mandy is alighting also.
Sorry ma! You can't go in with him.
Why? Noor asked, he is getting irritated, the way Lauren had looked at him, had made him suspicious.
It's an order from the boss. The driver reply, Mandy look at him.
She is my girlfriend not your boss' wife. Noor yelled in anger
Don't worry, I will just chat you up for what we discussed. Noor didn't say a word, he get down in anger, the driver took Mandy home, she is right in front of Sharon.
You are gone the whole day, don't you think it's bad to be with another man and you are getting married.
Sharon, let me be.
Let you be, you are still seeing that low life.
He is not... Mandy is at her limit, she pushed Sharon.
Don't call him that, he is not a lowlife. Mandy yelled at Sharon, she could take anything but insult on the man she loves, is a no no from her.
Oh, you want to fight me? Sharon knows their mother is there, she fake tears. Mother, Mandy is fighting with me.
Mandy...
What is going on here? Edward thunder voice came behind them making them turned, Susan would had hit Mandy, if Edward didn't show up.
Is it not this stupid...
Sharon, you don't used that language in my house. Edward yelled at her, she frown, she doesn't really know the reason her dad doesn't take side with her.
Sorry dad, I was only trying to advice Mandy, that it's bad to still be seeing her boyfriend when she is getting married to another, it might lead to scandal...
Edward move his eyes from Sharon to Mandy, his eyes are cold, he is not friendly anymore with his appearance, Mandy just don't understand her beloved father.
Sorry, I will just break up with him. Mandy run upstairs as she said it, Edward closed his eyes to suppress the pain, he knows his daughter is broken, she felt her heart just crash, how could she end a relationship that she had build for four years, break the heart of the man, she loves for years, it hurt it really hurt, she hit the mirror, making it fall in pieces, she hurt her hand in the process, she tie it with handkerchief not minding the blood coming out from it, she is heading out again.
Where are you going? Susan yelled. To do what you all want from me, I will break up with him but please just let me spend this day with him, just two days, I will be fine, I will never text him or chat him after my marriage, I beg you, just this onces.
Edward raise his hand for the security to let her passed she hugged Edward but he couldn't bring himself to hugged her, he had done enough damage to his little princess.
Mandy run out, she get her car, when she arrives at Noor, he is standing outside, she hugged him and cry, she cry on his shoulder, Noor seem lost, he just let her cry.
Shush! That is enough. She sit on the floor, Noor get the first aide, he was caring for her hurt hand, she held his hand.
Sorry, I am sorry. Noor look at her. I will be getting married by next weekend...
What? Noor yelled, you promised me, you told me that you will never marry another, yes, you promised.
Relax Babe, he said we will break up after six months, then you and I could be together forever but...
Noor gasped for air in relief but hearing her add but to it throw him in confusion.
It's a good news, why then did you hurt your hand? We two can still be..
Noor, I can't be with you for those six months, I can't be seen with you, you know it's bad, to be married and be seen with another, they we label me an adulteress, I will just have to cut every bond with...
Wait, do you want to break up with me? Noor tears drop, he saw this coming, he knows that Mandy will never want to keep him after the marriage, that is the reason he wanted to elope with her, he is not going to survive without her.
Babe, is not like that, you and I will get back to each other after the six months but for now, I just want us to separate...
It's same thing, you want to hurt me, you want to break my heart because I am poor and he is rich, he have all the fame while I have nothing, a broke guy depending on you...
No, that is not true, I love you and you know that, I don't want that kind of life, I will never hurt you...
But you are hurting me, you are piecing a knife right into my heart, just a single pushed, I am dying slowly
Mandy tears drop, as she saw the pain in Noor's eyes, it hurt her too, she hugged him, circling her hand round his neck, after some minutes, he pushed her from him.
I am sorry, just be patient with me, I beg you and everything will go back to normal, six months is just like tomorrow
Mandy go away. Noor words were hurting, she looks at him. Go away and don't show yourself to me again.
Noor stop, don't...
I said leave. He walked passed her and pulled the door, Mandy fall to her knees, she cry but Noor grab her hand and pushed her outside.
I am sorry, I beg you...
She hugged him, Noor tears drop but he had to let go for his happiness and that of Mandy's, she saw that no matter how she beg Noor, he will not change his mind, that is what she wanted but for just six months but Noor breakup is forever.
Noor close the door, she cry on his doormat folding her legs while Noor cry inside the room sitting by the door.
After crying for awhile, Mandy tap the door four times.
I know you can hear me, when ever you hear this tap four times, know that, is I love you forever. She wiped her face and go home, Noor open the door, he saw her car going but he didn't stop her.
Huh! He yelled with much pain in his heart, how could she hurt the one, she loves, Mandy sit at the floor beside her car, she cry, Edward is watching her, he had been waiting for her, he thought she will not return, he expected her to run away but she didn't.
She is back, back to her pain, if she had run away, Edward would had force Sharon into the marriage, saying that Mandy is nowhere to be found but she is here, that will never be possible, after crying for long, she walked inside, straight to her room, she sit on the floor resting her head on the bed, the pain will not let her sleep, she didn't even have her dinner.
One minute, she have the best relationship and the next she throw it away with her hand, not she but Edward, who had thrash her dreams, her father is the curse.
