I stepped out of the car gaping at the huge hospital building in front of me. I've seen this hospital before....many times. But what shocked me is that....this hospital was made and funded by this Devil?!
"I'll park the car in the parking lot. You two go ahead." Taha told me and Ruzhaan. I followed him in trying to match up with his long strides.
He opened the door to a special ward and gestured me to go in. I was so scared as to what I might witness inside.
Then.... I saw him.
He was still unconscious, a heart rate monitor, IV drops and some other machines were attached to him along with the oxygen mask. I went and sat on the stool beside him with teary eyes."It's been two days. Why hasn't he woken up?" I asked
"Shall I show you."•••He said and grabbing my nape pulled me to him that my body clashed into his hard one making me gasp. His playful eyes travelled down from my eyes to my lips. I shut my eyes tightly as his head suddenly swooped down just enough for his lips to brush slightly. I stopped breathing and my heart was pounding.Finally, his moist parted lips caught my lower lip in between them as he kissed me making my dry lips wet. He sucked on it slightly and then my upper lip.I just stood there like a doll. I don't know what I was feeling. But the gentleness of his lips with the subtle dominance was melting me somehow. There was no way I could give in but the warmth of his chest was making resisting quite hard for me.He gave a slight lick with the tip of his tongue on my lips and pressed both his lips on mine giving an audible kiss before releasing
After a couple days, Ruzhaan took me to the Supermarket for shopping. I made a big list on my mobile. He first asked Taha to take me shopping but that guy dragged him out saying he was busy.One by one I begun putting things in the cart that he was dragging behind me. It was quiet a sight to behold actually. A Mafia leader dragging shopping cart behind his wife.I stopped at the utensils section. We need to buy a lot of those. It was soo exciting! There were soo many new things."Tsk! Women don't even get this excited when they're out to buy diamonds and you're getting excited seeing frying pans?" He mocked me."There are soo many offers and look...the casserole set is amazing too. Which one should I pick? The pink one has 4 pieces and the black one has 5."
There was such a long silence that even I felt awkward. So I cleared my throat."L... let's go Rahina."Taha turned to his heels."O....kay..." I said confused and stood up reluctantly. Something wasn't right. Those two wouldn't even look at us now. He just kept on walking ahead as I tried to catch up to him."Hey Taha....was that Aunty your.... mother?" I asked carefully.He kept mum and was just walking ahead."Taha....""JUST SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND GET IN THE FUCKING CAR!" He yelled at me making me flinch.I got in the car quietly but still ... something didn't feel right. The curious uneasiness.... wanting to do something... won't go away."I have to go..." I said and darted back in
Next day I got a call from Sarah and I excitedly ran to Taha."Taha....Sarah and Aunty wanted to come here to see you so I invited them for lunch today.""Really?!" he said happily but then his smile faded."Uh...oh..""What's wrong?""They're coming here? But how do they know about here?!""Oh, it's because I told them.""And what else did you tell them?" He questioned crossing his arms."I told them that their son is a businessman who imports and exports spare parts of vehicles and has a lavish bungalow and they should be proud of you." I said grinning proud at myselfHe laughed nervously."Rahina...we are Doomed! Totally... completely finished!""Why?" I asked confused."Rahina you are not my wife...you are not pregnant...this isn't my house and I am not a businessman who sells
We all sat for lunch together and I sat beside Taha as 'Someone's' glaring eyes were fixated on us.Like I care!"The food is delicious!""Thankyou Aunty." I smiled."Are you still calling me Aunty? Abh mai tumhari Saas hu. Ammi bulao mujhe in dono ki tarah. (I'm your mother in law now. Call me Ammi like these two.) You're like my daughter too now." She scolded gently"Ji Ammi." I said shyly.Suddenly Ruzhaan started coughing badly."What's wrong?" Taha asked worried."Oops...looks like he couldn't handle a bit of spice." I mockedHa! I added an extra spoonful of chilli powder in his pulao. Serves him right. Bloody Mr. Flirt.Sarah immediately handed her own glass of water to him.Huh! This girl.... she's no less either!He was glaring at me
"Rub some ice on it. It will feel better."Taha said handing me the ice tray as he avoided eye contact."Thanks." I said taking it."Sorry you had to suffer soo much because of me." He said guiltily."It's ok. You were my only friend in this house. I owed you. And now that you're happy...your family's happy....what else can I ask for." I smiled assuringly.He gave a half smile pating my head and left somewhere.Third person POV,Burning with rage and frustration Taha slammed open the Study door where he knew Ruzhaan would be at the moment."Ho gaya tum dono ka drama?" (Is your drama over)Ruzhaan asked sardonically.Without a word Taha grabbed his collar and slammed him to the wall getting no reaction from Ruzhaan what so ever."Abh ye bhi tere drame ka hissa hai?" (Is this part of your drama to
When I came outside, he was already lying on the bed. Guess I have no choice but to bear with him. I took a spare pillow and blanket and kept it in between."This is the forbidden boundary. DO NOT cross the line! I repeat... Do not come at my side." I warned."Ok, for now! But I can't guarantee what might happen in my sleep. My hands and legs can go anywhere... up, down.... inside or outside." He winked.I just wanted to strangle his neck and kill him."Then try to control them!" I grumbled and laid down on the bed. He turned off the lights and with great difficulty I don't know when I fell asleep.∆∆∆∆I woke up to the sound of grunting and screaming as if someone was in immense pain and when I looked to my side....it was Ruzhaan!I woke up from my deep sleep that's why I was panicking a lot but it was a false alarm. He was just having a nightmare.&nbs
I arranged the things that Taha asked for and as soon as I heard the car I ran to the door. Taha was bringing Ruzhaan inside with his arm resting on his shoulder while Ruzhaan was half unconscious. My eyes blinded with tears as I saw his shirt completely covered in blood."He's ok... don't worry." Taha said assuringly but I couldn't believe him.Taha laid him on the bed as I had gone all numb seeing his condition."Rahina...go bring the kit."I couldn't hear him."Rahina!" He shook my shoulder making me flinch."He's ok... I've got him. He'll be ok in a few hours." He assured me in a gentle tone. I shook my head as I was already crying.He held my shoulders and made me sit beside Ruzhaan on the bed and brought the first aid. He tore open his shirt and I felt dizzy seeing the bleeding long wound at the side of his abdomen.
