Knock! Yash waited patiently for her to open the door but even after a few minutes she didn't, he knocked again Knock! Knock!Sherlin still did not open the door, and Yash grew worried for his daughter as well as Sherlin."Sherlin? Sherlin?" He banged his fist on the door as a weak voice came from the other side of the door."Yes, Yash?" Yash pressed his lips in a thin line, at least she could have opened the door."I need to see Ahana," Yash said."Umm... She is with maa... I put her to sleep before we went to KKN, " she said from the other side of the door as Yash nodded but wh
Author’s P. O. V.Yash held her legs tightly as she started whimpering; Yash looked at her tear-stained face; she was still wearing the black dress from earlier the only difference was; this time it was not perfect in its place to cover her breasts.Half of her breasts were slipped out of them, Yash sighed and pulled the covers above the bed and put them on Sherlin’s shoulders who clenched onto the covers as she looked at him; her eye makeup was all over her face.Yash moved a little away from her before he went to the bed side and opened the first drawer; Shayra made it a rule for everyone to have a first aid box in the room that too in the first drawer.He picked up the ointment and some wet wipes before he went back to sit beside her. Her eyes were still full of tears when he gently pulled her arm to him and cleaned it with the help of wet wipes.Sherlin hissed as the pain started to sink in but Yash did not make an attempt to lessen the pain; he learned only from her that only pai
Author’s P. O. V.“No!” Sherlin screamed but she was once again pulled back by her towards him as he started getting closer to her lips. “Once I take you, you will satisfy the customers,” He said as She gulped; she never wanted this. “get away from me,” She tried to starch his face but he slapped her hard. Her ear started ringing and before she knew what was happening to her she passed out once again. .“Please let me go, my mum thinks I am still at the house, she needs me, she can't even cook on her own, she is sick!” Sherlin cried as she joined her hands in front of the man who raped her earlier; her clothes were in their place but she knew, he did her. “ahhh… what a sad story,” He said as he looked at the bed; he just took her virginity on the very same bed; it had blood marks on it. Making her gulp; she did not want to go through all that once again. “You may go, you can even keep your phone with you, you may even continue your studies too but I have a condition…” he said a
“I am not the hero of your story,”“and I might be in love with the villain” Author’s P. O. V.Sherlin was leaning on Yash’s shoulder; she was sobbing as she told the entire nightmare to him; his heart clenched in pain; she was betrayed by him and now she is struck in the past that is why all these wired dreams were hunting her.“Did any of these ever happened in real?” he asked as Sherlin wiped her tears.“No,” She whispered shaking her head.Yash nodded, “Hey… it was just a nightmare, nothing but imagination, nothing happened okay? You are safe, you are here,” Yash said as he tried to make her feel better.“But what if he comes back? What if he tried to stanch everything I have, what if he took away Aahna from us!” She cried even more as Yash made a fist of his hand.The thought of losing his daughter made me mad; he already lost Shayra, and he can’t lose his daughter too. He put his hand on her cheek before he wiped her tears with the help of his thumb.She stared into his eyes; t
Author’s P. O. V.“Zoya!” a scream echoed in the whole house as she ignored him and continued to roll the tortilla with her broken hand; making it the most difficult thing she had ever done. Her hands were still shivering; there was no relief to it.“Ishh” She hissed as she finished making another round of tortillas.“ZOYA!” turning off the stove; she took off the apron before and walked out of the room in slow steps; she can’t walk fast, and her legs are shaky, similar to an 80-year-old.“Kya hai?” (what?) She asked as Kabir stood in front of her with the button of his shirt undone.“Do them,” He said as he stood in front of her like a child as she frowned.“what am I? your naukrani?” (servant) She said as she rolled her eyes at him.She was about to walk away when he pulled her by her good arm; her back hit his chest as she turned towards him and glared, “You were not one baby but you became one when I married you,” he said as he put her hand on his shirt buttons.“Do them,” he said
Author’s P. O. V.“Yash, where is Sherlin?” His mother asked as he put Aahana on his lap, trying to feed her milk.“She is still sleeping maa,” he answered as he made faces at aahana who laughed at him, clapping her hands.“Come on say ‘ aa’ “ He said as he opened his mouth, Aahana copied his movement and Yash fed a piece of apple.“Now chew,” he said as she nodded.“I,” Little Aahna pointed at herself as Yash looked at her.“co,” She threw her hands dramatically as Yash shook his head, “ She meant I know,” his mother said as Yash nodded.“I understand her language maa, she’s my daughter too,” Yash pecked her cheeks before he fed her another piece of apple.“I should go check on Sherlin, she never sleeps this late,” His mother said but Yash stopped her.“Let her sleep,” Yash said as his mother made a face at him but say nonetheless.“Yash, stop trying to steal my daughter,” Sherlin said as she came and sat beside him; Aahana jumped to her lap with a happy smile on her face.“I am not
Author’s P. O. V.“Sherlin, why did you stop me from saying it to him?” Yash’s mother asked once Yash left the dining room.“Maa, His wounds are still green, we should not scratch them,” She said as she fed Aahana. Yash was a good father, he was a good son but he was the best husband anyone could ask for.“Sherlin, if you have not noticed, he is eating bland food, he does not even touch spices, so you know what that means?” She asked as Sherlin nodded.“I know he started living the life of a widower, He is more than just faithful to Shayra,” She said as Yash’s mother’s shoulders dropped.“How are we going to pull him out of this? “ She asked.“I have no idea, maa,” She said as she smiled at Aahana. Sherlin had already lost hope of ever getting Yash back. However, his mother still had one.Yash came back done in all white, His mother’s heart pained but she put on a smile as she bid him bye.“Jai, about the apology?” He asked as he entered his cabin.“Yeah, here it is,” he handed him th
Author’s P. O. V.Knock! Knock!Sherlin opened the door of Yash’s room and she found it was already unlocked; the door was dark; she gulped as she moved her hand on the wall to find the switch.Finally, she switched on the lights of the room, her gaze fell on the guy who was laying in the middle of the carpet with a dress wrapped around his body.Her heart ached as she held the doorknob and closed it; “Yash,” She called his name softly as he opened his eyes a little.“Hey,” She said to him with a small smile on his face; he turned his face in the other direction as if he was a five-year-old. She kept the tray of food on the coffee table before she sat on the carpet.“Yash,” She called him once again as she kept her hand on his shoulder.“Go away Sherlin,” he whispered to her as her smile fell.“Okay, I’ll go away but first you need to eat something,” She said as her eyes roamed on the photos of Shayra that covered two walls of his room.He stayed silent as she looked at him.
