No, I don't wanna know
Where you been or where you're goin'
But I know I won't be home
And you'll be on your own

<<raqeeba's p.o.v>>

I looked at the kids as they laughed with so much joy. I'm not a kid fan with all honesty. In fact, I hate those unnecessarily nagging and crying kids but these Angels here were so much fun like literally.

I saw as they kept mimicking cartoon characters or their parents or some even their teachers. They were a bunch of witty minions. And I loved it!

Everything was going perfectly fine until loud gasps filled the hall making all ears perk up. I frowned as I saw a crowd starting to gather at the very end of the corridor.

Seriously. Who fights in a function for calling out loud?

I didn't give much attention to it. "Beeba." I felt Tabish nudge me. "It's a fight!" He whisper shouted. I rolled my eyes at him. "For calling out loud T. Exactly it's a fight, what's so exciting about it." He gave me the are you serious look. "The fact that it is a fight is exciting." I scoffed at him before saying. "What kind of a hatemonger are you, bitch" He just rolled his eyes before saying. "I'm going."

I shook my head at him before continuing to look around and that's when my eyes landed on Zunaim. He was also taking slow steps towards the crowd when all of a sudden his eyes widened and as if something had struck him, he ran towards the scene. This for some unknown reason sent a ray of panic within me.

Could it be...

No no no. I got up from my seat and just as I started I spotted Nushra with her arms wrapped around a somewhat familiar figure. I frowned and walking closer I figured who she was.

Anusha.

She was weeping. Oh, God. I could feel my heart beating faster with every step I took.

"You don't touch what's mine!" There. I heard it. I heard a voice I hadn't heard in months. It's strange how I can still recognize it.

He's here.

And I wish he wasn't.

Clenching my jaw I slowly made my way through the pool of people and as if everyone wanted me to see the commotion being caused they themselves made place for me. Just as I was in front of the scene a loud shriek escaped my mouth as a body came right at my feet, making me move backward and stumble a little.

"Oh my God." I breathed out keeping my hand on my mouth as my eyes zeroed on the lying figure right in front of me. Blood oozed out from his mouth as he coughed hard and looked up making my eyes widen.

William.

He was the waiter. A very sweet one if you ask me. I saw him helping a little girl with tieing her shoelace. That was the moment I spoke to him. He was humorous and very gentlemanly but a little naive I must say.

"Will---" Before I could complete what I was saying, a person picked him up by his collar from behind and pulled him up, landing another hard punch in his guts. I gasped when I saw the person who did it.

Nuraan?

I clenched my jaw I saw him push Tabish and Zunaim as they tried to stop him and yet again punch William. I cringed as I noticed his knuckles. He had blood on them making me gulp.

No no no Raqeeba! This is not the time to be Disturbed by your past!

With that, I clenched my fist into a ball as anger crept in every inch of me. What the hell is wrong with him!? And what is wrong with everyone else, can't any other person not stop this except for 2 guys!

"Nuraan!" Of course, my so-called voice was completely ignored leaving me with no other option than to enter the scene.

"Nuraan Stop." I tried to pull him back but of course, he didn't even bother to spare me a glance.

"Nuraan stop please." William was totally whipped by now and for some reason, I felt a small tear find its way to my eyes.

"Stay out of it." He said without looking at me. Taking a breath I grabbed his arm with which he was hitting hard this time and pulled it back with all my might and to my surprise, I did end up creating a good distance between them, however, within seconds he jerked my hand off and was ready to pounce on William again. But this time.

I had had enough.

"Nuraan!"

I did the only very rational thing that came into my mind. Before he could land his rock-hard punch on William's face again, I rushed myself, standing right between him and William. A small and soft gasp left my mouth as my eyes zeroed at his fisted hand that almost came flying straight to my face but stopped right in front almost an inch or two away.

Thank God.

I released a breath of relief I didn't even know I was holding. There were loud gasps that filled the hall. My eyes darted from the fisted bloody hand to that of the face of its owner. My grey orbs met those blue one's and just as they did a swirl of emotions flooded through those deep blue oceanic eyes. but I couldn't put my finger on any, except that somewhere deep down I could feel his pain, hurt and regret?

He slightly retreated his fist back clenching his jaw before blinking and gritted

"Getaway, Raqeeba." His words came out as a warning. A warning I wasn't planning to implement on.

"No," I said in an obvious tone. Moving a step forward I slightly lessened the distance between us looking straight into his eyes he looked back with the same intensity.

"You don't know what that Moron did so just leave me be and get the fuck away." He whispers shouted, making me slightly wince at his words. I knew not everyone could hear us.

"You're angry and if you keep going at that pace, he'd die" I gave him THE fact.

"Well, I don't care! I don't give a fuck about him!" This time his voice boomed making me jump slightly, as if on instinct my eyes found their way to a once crying figure of Anusha, who is now smirking.

Wait, what? She's finding this funny.

Nuraan tried to launch himself on William once again but this time I rested my hands on his chest stopping him.

"Nuraan." Has he gone insane?

"Leave me." He said with his eyes fixed on William. Taking a deep breath I placed both my hands on his cheek trying to make him look at me, but he was too stubborn for he kept glaring at William who was behind me still panting.

"I'm going to break every single piece---"

"Stop," I said but he of course ignored me.

"---of bone that fucking---"

"Stop it Nuraan"

"---bastard has in his body---"

That's it. 4 of my fingers curled behind his neck as my thumb rested on his cheek twisting his head to my side so he finally looks at me in the eyes.

"I said stop."

"No I need to---" I cut him off

"There's just one thing we need to do right now and that is" I pause and take a glance at William before looking at Tabish and saying. "-to take him to the hospital and-" before making contact with my husband's burning gaze. " to take you home."

"What?" He asked with agitation as he slowly wrapped his palms around my wrist and pulled away. I rolled my eyes at his overreaction.

"We're leaving," I said with finality and he scoffed

"I'm not going anywhere, Wife. " As stupid as it sounds I knew I liked the way how easily those words escaped his lips yet can I deny the fact that this argument is somewhat related to his girlfriend.

"I'm not leaving until I teach that moro--"

I didn't give him the chance to complete his sentence as I grabbed his hand in mine and tried to pull him towards the exit. But he being him had to prove how physically weak I was when compared to him coz well... I couldn't move him an inch. Clenching my jaw I turned to look at his bored expression and saying

"We are leaving--" My eyes flickered to the woman who was now standing beside him with a scowl on her face. Anusha had stopped crying long ago and since then all I have seen her do is smirk when someone is shouting at me and scowl when I'm talking to someone. With one glance at her, I looked back at the man I'm married to. Like I wanted to show something to the world and maybe to someone. Like I wanted to prove something, just by saying things that don't deserve to be my words.

"--Husband."

Why did I do that?
