"How could he be my blood when I know that apart from my wives, I have never been intimate with any woman?" He spoke directly, looking at the doctor who held the test result. The doctor nodded and repeated, "Indeed Jaheed, he is your blood, because the DNA test and everything confirm that you are his father. Even before that, your striking resemblance proves it without needing a test."
A long silence filled the room, everyone lost in their own thoughts. He found it hard to convince his heart that he was Jaheed's father despite the strong evidence. What he knew was that, even as a joke, apart from his legally married wives, he had never even held a woman's hand. If it is true that Jaheed is his son, how did his seed form inside a woman whom he had never even seen in a dream? TRUDLY, THERE IS A SECRET BEHIND THE SCENE. Jaheed's mother could also be subject to suspicion and doubt. Directly, he could say this might just be the WILL OF GOD...
THE WILL OF GOD.

He slowly closed his eyes after looking at her face, which beamed with immense joy. It seemed the message from her father had reached him, bringing her deep happiness and excitement.
Little did she know that the message came to him negatively, contrasting her interpretation of joy. Instead, his heart panicked, plunging into the familiar emotional state he experienced whenever a girlfriend told him her father asked him to send suitors. He opened his soft, strikingly handsome, and dignified eyes, staring at her. Tears pooled in his eyes, restrained only by his strong will and endurance. He was a real man capable of hiding his heart's weakness and failures most of the time, despite the ordeal forcing him to cry out loud or scream.
A massive destiny was tearing through his life—the kind of fate that would make anyone say God shouldn't have created them, unless they steadfastly anchored themselves in faith and the knowledge that God tests them to weigh their scale of patience. Would His servant accept destiny and embrace it as it comes? The tears Khairi saw in his eyes broke her resolve, making her own happiness vanish into thin air.
In obvious distress, she asked, "What happened Hubby? Don't tell me Abba's message upset you and you aren't ready to marry me?" He shook his head, trying to mask his panic, and replied, "I am ready Habibteey, but you yourself knew who I was from the very beginning. What I fear is whether your Abba will agree once they investigate my background and find out I am nobody's son except the child of a mentally unstable woman who doesn't even know her own mind, let alone who fathered her and brought me into this world?"
Khairi fell silent, her own heart leaping with panic. She had completely forgotten about this issue concerning JAHEED until he reminded her. Truly, she knew her father; he was a strict man with rigid principles whose mind could never be bent. If he found out who JAHEED was, even if it killed her, he would not let her marry him. But as for her, given how deeply she loved him in her heart, she was ready to marry him with or without her father's consent.
Therefore, she sighed, looking at JAHEED with deep sympathy for his unchosen destiny—a fate he never would have asked for had he been given a choice. With a frail voice and tears streaming down her cheeks—unable to stop them—she grabbed JAHEED's hand and said, "No one will ever separate us JAHEED. Whether they like it or not, I will marry you. God created me with your love, and I know you are the anchor of my life. Wind and water, I am with you; I am always yours." She pressed her face into JAHEED's palms, weeping bitterly in a way that would melt anyone's heart.
JAHEED stayed silent, listening to her weeping that weakened his soul, feeling as though he wanted to cry too. However, his strong endurance and willpower stopped him. Instead, a sharp pain and heavy thumping struck his chest, just as it always did during such moments. Four times he had sought marriage, and four times he was rejected because of his unknown lineage and lack of a solid background, watching helplessly as the desire of his heart slipped away.
Khairi was the fifth girlfriend he loved, and deep down, he felt this would be his final heartbreak. So this was how his life turned out—his harsh and complicated destiny. Khairi's words expressing intense love did not comfort him, because those previous women had said similar things before they were eventually forced to part ways, never to be heard from again.
He pulled Khairi's face away from his palms, watching her tears fall, feeling their sting like molten lead in his heart. "Stop crying Khairi, I know I am unlucky this time too. In sha Allah, after you I will never love again; I will just be patient, this is what God destined for me."
She sobbed heavily, encouraging him to send suitors anyway, praying and feeling in her gut that this time her Abba would agree and give him her hand in marriage. He remained silent, studying Khairi's eyes. His love for Khairi was massive; he could say he had never felt love quite like this before. He wanted to give her pure love—a love where even he couldn't explain why he loved her. Ever since he met her, he lost peaceful sleep; she was constantly in his dreams and thoughts. Just as his heart constantly trembled with the fear of losing Khairi, he didn't think he could endure it this time.
He sighed, pulling her slender fingers, and twisted the promise ring on her finger and his own—the ring they called the token of their covenant. If only their dream could come true today and he could see them as husband and wife, he wouldn't know how to thank God enough; he would even fast for sixty days out of joy for marrying Khaireey.
"Alright Habibteey, go home. I will go and speak with Baffa, and suitors will be sent if God wills it. But if it doesn't work out, I beg you to bear it and accept our destiny."
Khairi quickly shook her head, "No JAHEED, I can't. I cannot live without you JAHEED love. If he refuses, let's just elope and get married."
JAHEED smiled—a smile that masked the pain in his chest—and nodded, not because he agreed with her reckless idea, but simply to calm her down. He said, "Okay, go home quickly. Dream of JAHEED, a sweet dream, you hear Khaireey? Dream of me kissing those sweet able lips," he said, staring at her lips that captured his attention.
Khaireey quickly closed her eyes and sped off in her car. JAHEED released a fragile smile before closing his eyes, allowing the tears he had held back to finally slip down. Truly, Khaireey's love was unique in his heart since it made him shed tears. With great difficulty, he slowly drove his car into the compound compound, his heart whispering that he might have just bid farewell to his Khaireey.
Summary
The story revolves around Jaheed, a young man plagued by a harsh destiny and social stigma because his background is unknown—he was raised by a benevolent foster father ("Baffa") after being born to a mentally unstable mother. Despite being a man of high dignity and strong morals, Jaheed faces repeated heartbreak; every time he seeks a woman's hand in marriage, relationships collapse due to his lack of a proper family lineage.
In this chapter, Jaheed faces a bizarre parallel medical or personal mystery alongside his romantic struggles, while also navigating hostility from his foster brother’s arrogant half-sister, Najma. Meanwhile, he is deeply in love with his fifth girlfriend, Khairi, who is determined to marry him despite his background. However, Jaheed fears her strict father will reject him just like the others, leaving him emotionally broken and bracing himself for yet another inevitable heartbreak.
