Love below the Bed!

It was Thursday afternoon. The sun was shining, and the weather was very nice. Mr. Hanad was riding a bicycle in the street. A very beautiful girl was also walking on the road. He suddenly glimpsed the girl and gave all his attention to her while riding; he hit a tree near the street, and the bike broke, but luckily he only fell down. She disappeared.

Hanad tried to look for the address of the girl. He called around, and finally got her phone number. He thought about the best time to talk to the girl. A week later, he called her, but she was unwilling to talk to an unknown person. He tried hard to make her talk to him. She fell in love with him. Her name was Muna, and she inhabited Halane village which was far from Hanad’s house in Borama.

The two shared a romantic relationship. They talked to each other for a long time each day via their cell phones, while they sometimes met in the market. Nobody knew about their affairs since they kept it secret.

One day, Hanad’s phone rang, but he did not answer because he did not hear the ringtone. He saw an unknown number missed called him. He called back, and someone instantly answered. It was a girl’s voice. “Who are you?” he asked. She told him that a girl called Muna wanted him and left now. He called his girlfriend’s number, but it was unavailable. He tried again and again, but he got the same answer.

Muna called him after ten days. He was worried about her at that time.  After greeting, he asked her where she was. She told him that her mobile had been broken. Hanad criticized her for not thinking of him. “Darling, can you please come to my home tonight at 8 p.m.?” she asked him. “Sure,” he replied. He asked her the reason because she had never invited him home. She said to him that her parents had gone to another town, and her older brothers would arrive late at night. “What an amazing appointment!” he thought.

He prepared for the event and dressed up. When he approached her home, he called her and asked her to open the door. They both sat in the living room. They drank tea and discussed about their relationship a lot for an hour. There was a sound from outside. She asked him to be quiet because someone was knocking at the door! It was Jama, her elder brother. Both were shocked. “What should I do?” she thought. She asked him (Hanad) to hide under a bed there! Jama entered the room and sat on the bed itself.

 Hanad was still there like a mouse. His heart was palpitating with fear. Jama threw big shoes under the bed and hit the poor man lying there. After one and a half hour, Jama went to the restroom. Hanad left immediately with anger. He never returned. The two split up because of the incident.
