"U... Uzair let go! Y....yeh kya batameezi hai!"
(What arrogance is this?)
I tried to yell but my voice couldn't come out that loud

"Batameezi? (Arrogance?) Now even my touch is offensive to you?!" He grunted twisting my arm behind my back.

"Ah!" I yelped wincing in pain as his grip on my wrist was soo tight.
"Stop it Uzair!"

"You were mine Rahina, he stole you from me. We were about to get married, we were about to be happy but he put me in a comma and forcefully married you. I love you Rahina and you love me. Didn't you say that yourself? Then, what happened in these past months...what kind of black magic has he cast on you? Why can't you look at me the way you look at him? Why soo distant from me while you're soo close to him?!" He yelled at my face.

I was too scared by now, literally shaking.

"Please... Uzair!"

I somehow managed to free myself from his grip and made a run towards the door but he grabbed my elbow and pushed me to the crockery cabinet like a rag doll. I cried out in pain as a sharp sting resonated through my arm as it hit hard on one of the shelves. Some plates fell down around me breaking into pieces at my impact as I staggered to protect myself. My heart was thumping in my chest.

He blocked me to the shelf with both his hands, the fire in his eyes burning my neurons. I gasped at how close he was to me. It was nerve recking and scary. I could feel tears at the back of my eyes.
He carassed my face gently making me flinch. Still I was unable to move or push him away. Frozen completely.

"You love me right Rahina? Can't you kiss me the way you were kissing him? I want to wipe out his every touch from your body. Tell me, all the things he has done to you...all the places he has touched. I'll touch you and kiss you even more to erase his touch. I'll make you forget about him and then all you can remember is me...." He tugged my hair behind my ears smiling in a creepy way.
"...your Uzair."
He spoke like a psychopath. His words felt soo sickening to me. This man wasn't the Uzair I knew.

"Y... you ca..n't. Th...this is wrong." I managed to stammer. I was really scared now and there was no escape. Where is Ruzhaan?!

He banged his fist beside my head making me shut my eyes and squeal in fright.

"Why....why....why....WHY?! Because he's your legal husband? Then....then how about I kill him. Will that be ok?" He grinned crazily.

My eyes widened at his words and he was getting dangerously closer to my lips.

I raised my hand and slapped him right across his face, but it only resulted in adding fuel to the fire because the next moment he grabbed both my wrist painfully and pinned them up above my head.

I was sobbing by now paralyzed...my voice and breath being caught up in my throat as I whimpered shaking my head desperately.

He just wouldn't stop.

"Uzair.... please stop... don't do this..." I somehow managed to say moving my face but he painfully grabbed my chin.

"Love me damnit!" He grunted.

"No....Help!!!" I yelled crying.

Please someone save me.... Ruzhaan.... please.... please....oh God....

Just then, the door burst open.

"What's going on? Get away from her you bastard!"

Taha grabbed Uzair and pulled him away from me. I immediately ran and hid behind Taha.
"How dare you touch my sister?!" He growled at Uzair and then turned to me worried.
"Are you ok?"

I nodded but I was far from ok. My knees were literally shaking.

"Go, I'll deal with him." He assured me.

"She's not going anywhere! And you....step away from between us." Uzair announced.
"She's mine!" He yelled making me look at him in horror.

"She's not a thing to own. It's her choice whom she wants to be with. And she chose Ruzhaan so you are the one who needs to move away from between them You psycho!" Taha pushed him.

My feet were frozen and my brain was in a frenzy. I'd never seen this side of Uzair nor did I ever think this side of him ever existed. He's like a totally different person. Who is this guy?!

"You think you're his family? He abandoned us and ran away just to be with thugs like you and become a lowly criminal. I'll never forgive him for that!" Uzair said.

"Abandoned you?! Don't make me laugh. He was kicked out because of a psychopath like you? You are the ones who abandoned him and we became his family when he needed someone the most." Taha retorted even more angrily.
"You two faced monster, you were the one who did everything while he took the blame for everything. Yet instead of protecting him you all left him alone. Even your parents."

What are they even talking about?!

"ENOUGH!" Uzair screamed covering his ears and shutting his eyes as if he was having an traumatic episode. But when again he looked up at Taha, his eyes seemed as if that of a demon. He wasn't the innocent angelic looking guy I knew...he was the devil I was oblivious of.

This is between me and my Rahina. You stay away from it before I kill you." He warned in a deep scary voice.

Oh God! I really thought if he got his hands on me... I might actually die.

"And on whom will you put the blame on this time? On Rahina? Like all those years ago you put the blame on your older brother when you killed that boy...."
Taha was cut off as Uzair landed a hard punch on him making him stagger away from me. My hand flew to mouth as I gasped in utter shock. My hands and legs were shaking as I watched helplessly how those two were throwing punches at eachother creative a huge mess in the kitchen in this ugly fight.

"Please.... please...stop." I sobbed watching the two people I care about hurting eachother like that. It was just soo painful to watch. I looked around but there was no one I could ask for help. Ruzhaan was the first person that came to mind but ....it all started because of him.

What do I do?!

Suddenly, Uzair got his hands on a big knife as he was thrown on the kitchen cabinet. Both of them gasping for air. Fire raging in thier eyes.

No...no...no!
I wished I could scream but it all happened soo fast.

Uzair gripped the knife and attacked Taha but I guess he was used to such kind of attacks so he dodged it perfectly and defended himself well everytime. I wanted to stop them before someone really got hurt.

I don't know where I got the courage from when I jumped in between in trying to stop Uzair but the weak and stupid me was pushed away on the floor.

"Rahina!"

Taha sounded angry and worried but it soon turned into a cry of pain. When I looked up, my heart stopped for a moment when I saw Uzair just holding the handle of the knife at Taha's chest.

Where did the blade go?

Oh God! It had disappeared deep inside Taha's chest, his t-shirt soon being covered in ruby red blood.

"T..T...Taha....TAHA." I screamed watching the scene horrified.

Taha screamed and grunted again as like a monster Uzair pulled out the knife from inside him. The blade was dripping with his blood and Taha sank down on the floor beside me.

"T...Taha?" I cried, tears blurred my vision. He looked up at me holding his chest in unimaginable pain as I approached him with shaking hands.

He's gonna die .... he's gonna die..... please.... please don't... don't die!!!

The blood was making me dizzy now.

"Please.... Taha bhai.... bhai....bhai..." I wailed. As I dared to touch him, his blood covered my hands and my lap as I shakily rested his head on my lap. He wasn't even able to speak. When he weakly grabbed my hand, I cried harder. I was just soo terrified.

"Please.... God.... please...bhai...."

I heard the knife dropping and my eyes shifted up at Uzair who was gaping at Taha in horror.

"How could you?! How could you do such a thing?! You monster!"

"I....I....I didn't....I didn't do it....I....I....no....no....no.... I didn't.... I.....no.... I didn't do anything....it.... it wasn't me....no...."
He kept chanting like crazy.

"Yes you did!" I cried out

"No....no!!!"
He literally ran away from there leaving us alone. I wanted to run behind him but Taha held my hand stopping me.

"Don't." He moaned in agony.

"HELP! Someone help.... please... anyone please help us!" I screamed desperately fighting through my breaking voice and shattering courage. Even my phone wasn't with me. I checked in Taha's pocket for his but it was in a corner broken into pieces during the fight. I held on to his hand crying and screaming desperately for help. I prayed that may God send us help. I felt soo paralyzed and useless. He was dying in my arms but I couldn't do anything.

"Don't cry." I heard him whisper.

"Bhai..." Oh God! His eyes were closing.

"Don't close your eyes....bhai please....just a bit longer...just please hold on.... don't.... don't let go of my hand ok?" I begged him.

His grip on my hand was loosening. He was loosing consciousness. Just then I heard the men entering the house.
God heard my prayers!

"Over here. Help! Everyone! Here in the kitchen. Please help!" I cried.

They all came rushing in and were shocked to see Taha in that state.

"Pl... please take him to a hospital....save him...." I sobbed.

But all of a sudden his hand slipped from mine motionless and his eyes closed.

"TAHA!"
