I dedicate this chapter to my lovely readers, who tackle their particular relatives, who call and provokes our parents after our exam results😠😤😠 I am one of the victim😭😭

Zoya's pov :

I am lying on my hospital bed and I look pathetic, I am not only physically stressed but also mentally worn out.

Before three days my last wish was to see my family, I am glad and thankful to my Allah, I could finally have them by my side .

Alhamdhulillah...........

But I don't know, why can't I be happy? I couldn't breath properly, my upper extremity feels so heavy. If I close my eyes, only one frame came in front of me.

It was................. Ahad Yusif Khan.

The sight of him leaving me today with heavy heart consumed my mind. I can't be distracted even after Rehi's continuous rambling.

She is trying to bring back the real me. But I know she can't. Because now she is with Mrs. Zoya Ahad Khan, her sister Zoya Usmaan was long lost somewhere.

It's gonna be 10pm soon, but still he didn't bother to visit me . How mean Ahad? I am not gonna leave you for this..... You have to pay for this and I am sure the consequences will be worse.

Yes, I am not gonna break my marriage. My instinct tells me not to. I always believe my Allah and go through the way my heart choose, I will give my marriage a chance.

I know, I'm not in love with him but I don't know why can't I leave him. But choosing Ahad doesn't mean I'll go against my daddy, I'll talk to him. I'll make him understand my feelings.

But I have to wait until Ahad return , I know he will defiantly come for me. By then I'll convince daddy, I want my dad to see how much Ahad loves me. Then things will be easy for me to explain.

Where are you idiot come fast, I am waiting.......

The clock stuck 11, then 12 .....and even 1, but I can't see him. My eyes were transfixed on the door. Everybody went home and my mom stayed with me. She eyed me suspiciously so I pretend as if I slept already, but I didn't.

I waited for him the whole night, tomorrow I will be discharged from this hell, Daddy will take me home, but where is Ahad? Allah.... where is he? Is he OK?

Although I was under sadations I couldn't sleep, my thoughts didn't let me. My head is aching badly and the clock hits 10 in the morning ,my dad already went to clear the formalities for my discharge.....

My mom took my hand and helped me out of the bed, I changed to my normal cloths and started walking out of the hospital, my eyes scanned the whole pathway for him but he wasn't there.

When I was about to step into our car, I paused for a minute, my eyes searched for his Audi but it wasn't there and tears pooled when the reality struck my mind.....

He left me.......

My heart shattered into pieces, he is not gonna come for me. But why Allah... Why? When I finally decided to accept him, why did he left me?

I rested my head on the closed window and all my memories with him flashed in my mind.... I cried silently and drifted off to sleep.....

------------------------------------

It's been two days since I am home, all my relatives came to know about the reason behind my wedding.

Many people visited me, some blessed me for my well being, some are pity on me and some are proud of me for taking such a big decision to save my family. I am really thankful to them.

But.... But mostly, I am an entertainment specimen and my life is the hot gossip topic for some of my relatives.

Are they for real. I heard blood relations will support us and help us when we are in trouble , but nowadays they prove to be the one who enjoys our destruction.

It is better to avoid and ignore them, I didn't mention all the good souls worried for me, but the worst creatures who enjoys other's pain.

They are worst.......

My parents were worried about my future, I know they are in pain. Suddenly one of my mami stood up and started to curse Ahad, now I am slowly loosing my temper.

"I don't think anyone else will be ready to marry Zoya, after everything but I am her mami , what do you think about my son Ershad marrying Zoya......

Think about it Usmaan and arrange for her divorce as soon as possible. " the nerves of this lady.... She wants me to divorce.........

I lost it, I stood up from my chair and in that force it hit the ground with a loud thud. I didn't speak anything but walk passed glaring at her and went straight to my room.

This is the first time I have ever disrespected someone especially an elder in my life. She came to ask my hand for his son even before I was engaged to Arhaan but for some reason daddy denied the proposal.

Now she took the opportunity, to play her way but she didn't expect me to react like that. Even I didn't know I will do that.

All because of him..... That idiot, where are you Ahad? Where are you?? Please come back...... I miss you...... Talk to my dad and take me back...... Where are you.......

I tried to call him but his mobile was switched off for almost two days. He didn't even want to talk to me, tears were flowing from my eyes unconditionally.

I am trying to call Sano ,but her mobile was also switched off, I am going insane...... Now what will I do??

I went to the restroom, did my wudhu and prayed to my creator. I cried my heart out... And prayed, prayed and prayed to my Rab to show me a correct path.

Suddenly the door opened and came in my mom.

"Zoya , you just came from the hospital, you wanna get back there and hurt us. Decide yourself. " I stood up from the prayer mat , folded it and sat on my bed still sniffing.

"Now answer my questions... you are not gonna lie to me and tell me the truth. Am I clear? " I don't know what she is gonna ask, I nodded my head bewildered.

"He blackmailed you for this marriage. Yes or no? " she asked folding her hands.

"Yes" I replied.

"Did he forced you for anything? " She asked, with little nervousness.

"No! "I told her immediately, I know what she meant but not in earth Ahad did or would do that to me. He is a perfect gentle man.

"Did he took good care of you? " she asked unfolding her hands.

"Yes" he took very good care of me like a mother.

"Did he hurt you in anyway, I mean hit you or something else. "

"No ....no mummy he didn't.. " How can she think that way, it was impossible he handles me like a piece of porcelain apart from incident which landed me in hospital and I am pretty sure he is hating himself for that, it was not intentional.

"Did he smoke or drink? " She asked me her eyebrows crouched.

"Asthaufirllah, no mummy" He is not.

"Did he looked jealous ,when you talk about your family and loved ones. " she asked me with a slight smile threatening to show up. P

"Yes" he is really jealous.

"Is he in love with you? "Now she came close to me.

I nodded my head yes. She lifted my face holding my chin.

"Do you love him? " Do I love him , I don't know...... Seriously I am confused.

"Life is not perfect in everything Zoya, we have to adjust I ourselves and live happily with what Allah gave us.

Now listen his approach may be bad, but he is from a good family, he takes good care of you, he looks after all your needs and importantly he loves you.

I think you should go back to your house. The way you reacted today helped me to realize that you don't want this divorce. It means you are also interested in him.

I'll talk to your dad, so get ready and go back to your home and your husband. " I hugged my mom tight, she is the best only she can understand me.

I took my towel and rushed to my bathroom to take bath, all the while grinning like an idiot.

When I was about the enter the restroom my mom called me ,

"Get ready meanwhile I'll talk to your daddy " she smiled at me and closed the door.

I am happy, at the same time I am damn angry at him.... For leaving me like this.

Get ready idiot this time I'll make sure my half learned martial arts works out properly.

After few minutes, I was ready wearing a dark blue saree and paired it with my diamond earring. He likes me wearing saree.

I look so tired because of my lack of sleep, I think I should cover it up with little make up.

When I was about to take my make up which was just a n eyeliner and a baby gloss, Zara came running into my room and handed me the phone....

"Akka, Reshma akka wants to talk to you. " I took her mobile since I didn't have my own. Thanks to my husband for breaking it.

I sighed and said a hello but it was not Reshma......

"Zoya...... This is Rizwan, I think you should come here now.... It's Ahad... He is..... I mean his condition in worse please come soon. " he was tensed.

"What do you mean?" My heart started to beat erotically thinking about the worst possibilities.

"You will know once you reach here. " Oh my allah.... Ahad have serious anger issues.

"Where is he?" I hope he is safe.

"In Khan's Mansion" he told me quickly.

"I am coming." with that I tossed Zara's phone in my bed and dashed out. Everyone down in the hall eyed me like I was having horns grown in my head.

But I just don't care, all I think about is my Ahad... I searched for my parents to inform them but they we're nowhere to be seen.

I didn't have time to inform them now. I'll tell them once I come back. I am sure daddy can understand me.

Yes, I'll come back home with Ahad and talk to my dad about my marriage. I took the car keys and drove to The Khan's Mansion.

It was a 30 minutes drive and trust me, it was very much like 30 years. Once I reached there , I saw my father in law he gave me a 'Thank God look", Rizwan sighed and gestured me to my room.

My legs ran lightning quick, and next moment ,I was in front of my room. I opened the door with shivering hands.

And I went in to find everything was a mess, the room was filled with broken glass pieces, our bed was on the floor, it was torn and sponge everywhere.

My heart constrained in pain at the sight in front of me.....Ahad was on the floor staring at the sealing in the same dress the day he left the hospital.

My world stopped when my eyes finally met the familiar pair of brown orbs, Which have so much effect on me.

There was the same pain and ineffable love in that . But this time anger was most prominent in his dark chocolate eyes.

In a snap of second he was holding my arms a way little painfully, and told me something which triggered my nerves. What the hell....... I should be the one asking this....

"Why did you leave me? "
