Chapter Six

What started out as a nightmare had the potential to turn into something quite wonderful.

Maria had saved me from a grave mistake, and I had to remind myself to thank her one day.

In a twisted way, Maria deserved a round of applause for serving as the guru to my awakening. The common denominator of why my past relationships never worked out all reduced down to one person, Yasmeen.

There was nobody like her.

It wasn’t about her external beauty, but the magical presence she brought to my life. She was my lighthouse, her bright light guiding me safely to land before I floundered on the rocks of life.

Her friendship was true and selfless, and she was always there when I needed it the most. Never could I envisage feeling a deeper love, or connection for another person, not like I did with her.

Yasmeen Irivani is the woman of my dreams, and subconsciously, I’d been waiting for her to come to the same realisation, even when I’d told myself it would never be, could never be.

Now, my future was in the hands of Nadim.

I prayed he would care more for his daughter’s happiness than his own pride.

But I didn’t hold out much hope.

I had to go back to work, even though smiling and pretending everything was hunky dory was the last thing I wanted to do.

“Are you okay, doll?” My co-worker Susie was quick to approach. “I can’t believe what that bitch did earlier, and she’s got the nerve to come back in here like nothing’s happened.” Susie nodded toward the corner and standing right next to the deejay booth was Maria and her butch mate, Lorna.

Both were glowering at me, like I’d done something wrong.

“I’m not having this,” I said. “This is my workplace and if she doesn’t like it, she can find somewhere else to drink.”

“Don’t kick off,” Susie warned. “You know what happened last time. Any more broken chairs and Julia will sack you.”

“I don’t care.”

I stormed from behind the bar and charged over to Maria and Lorna.

“Is there a problem?”

Lorna was the first to answer. She was considered a big mouth around town and thought her hulkish frame, short hair, leather jacket and big mouth intimidated people. Well, it might some people, but not me. “Get the fuck out of my face,” she said, pushing me back.

No way was I standing for that, not in my own bar.

“Lorna, don’t,” Maria warned.

“I’m not scared of her. I’ll rip those tatty extensions out of her head.”

“Extensions! This is my real hair, not that you’d know anything about it looking the way you do, you big fat docker.”

Susie rushed out from behind the bar. “Kara, please don’t cause any trouble.” She was only small, petite with dark hair, but was always the nervous type.

“Maria, get that thing out of my bar before I drag her out by her hair.”

“Thing,” Lorna shouted. “Who are you calling a thing?”

Maria remained silent.

“You!” I said. “Now, get your big lard arse out of my bar before I throw you out.
