Malik smirked as his features hardened. He signalled Samira to appear distressed hoping she would understand.
To his relief, she understood without much effort. "What is..."
He glared at his mother shutting her up effectively.
Only then did the Queen take a good look at the other person in the room. Samira was perspiring again. Malik's frame had hidden her from view before.
As Malaika and Yasmin moved closer, they discovered that the latter's eyes were all white. Realization dawned on them. She must be having a vision.
Unsuspecting any foul play between the two, the mother and princess were contented. On the other hand, Samira was dying with laughter inside.
How stupid! She didn't care though. As for her perspiration, it was genuine. Malik's request had her on the edge of her seat.
She stayed for a while before letting her eyes change back to their original colour. A heavy and loud sigh left her lips.
