Все главы Arranged: Глава 1 - Глава 10

The next day I woke up early to prepare everything for Zeenat Akka.Tariq was also home to help me with the preparation, so i had that blessed moment of opening my eyes to see his face early morning.I looked at his peaceful sleeping face, and couldn't stop myself.I brought my face closer to his and lightly kissed his cheek.His eyes fluttered open and before I could move away, he realised I was closer to him more than his liking so on the fastest reflex he pushed me sitting himself up.I banged my head on the bed post while he shouted,"what the hell were you doing?"I muttered an apology while he still shouted,"Why don't you understand the meaning that I don't like you! I fucking hate your face..why can't you just wait for four more months? Why can't you control your hormones? Just control it for four months and then we will be separated.""Separated?" I asked, my voice a whisper.He nodded and said,"i have already filed for divorce but

"An Amusement Park?" I exclaimed.Tariq stood beside me and said,"you always wanted to visit one yeah?"I looked at him confusion written on my face.How did he know?He looked at the park with hands inside the front pockets of his jeans."Isn't this for kids?" We both turned to look at Akka.My smile fades a little.Kids?Tariq then spoke,"well the child in you never dies, it's not the age that makes you grow old, it's the fun you let go off that makes you grow old."He then held my hand and then turned to face Akka,"Zee? You coming?"She rolled her eyes saying,"do I have a choice?"My first time to ever visit an Amusement Park, something I always dreamt of."So which one should we try first?" Asked Tariq looking at me."Umm..I. I dont know, which one is more fun?" I asked.He smiled saying,"i just hope you don't throw up on me."

The breakfast went as usual only with the addition of Akka.Tariq was quiet as usual.Akka tried to light up a conversation but none of us paid attention.I bet she knew by now that something had happened between Tariq n I.I always considered her my elder sister, my godmother, my everything and would have never thought that she would want bad for me.I agree, with Tariq I wasn't that happy the way a wife is with her husband.Like we had not even consummated our wedding, I had all the happiness except for the physical one.But she didn't knew that , then why would she want Tariq to leave me?Tariq , Akka and I were now in the living room.We had decided to be indoors today since it was raining.We opted for playing board games.We were playing cards.Akka knew the rules, since I never played any before, so I was skeptical if I would be able to but Tariq explained and I wanted to give it a try."So Zee will

I was now in my room, ready to sleep.Tariq was already on the bed, asleep.I switched off the light and slept on my side when he spoke," good night."Upon knowing he was awake, I turned facing his back and spoke," I thought you were sleeping."He turned around smiling, now facing me."What do you want to ask?" He asked.I rolled my eyes, "nothing."Even though it was dark,but the moon light was enough to see his smiling face," I have known you better Zeren in these past few days."I smiled," and you are right.""So?" He said for me to continue."So.. umm.. the reason for the divorce?"I stuttered asking that.I was nervous.What if he lashes out on me?What if he tells something I didn't wanted to hear?He sighed taking deep breath and spoke," before our marriage, Zee and I used to date.""D..date? As in?" I asked unsure of what I heard.He nodded facing the ceiling."We were a couple bu

Two weeks had passed, everything was going well.Tariq started spending more time at home.I now see his face every morning, lunch and at night as well.Even though we had started improving our relationship, but not physically as couples.These two and a half month of our marriage, we never received phones from Tariq's family.I don't know if Tariq ever received them before but I never did.So a call from them on my phone was unexpected.I had just finished mopping the kitchen floor, when my cell phone rang.Trying to swipe the answer button with wet hands, I then kept it on speaker and spoke," hello?"Honestly at first I didn't know whose number it was.Cause I didn't had anyone's number.Our marriage was arranged indeed, and it was also all of a sudden marriage.Like one day Tariq's parents came to see me and the next day it was my nikkah.I did knew Tariq as Akka's friend from college but other than that I
