Chapter 6- Flashback

At Morning

Meher's p.o.v

I wake up from my sleep and felt that someone is hugging me from behind. It's none other than him. It's Sehreyar Sir.

He is sleeping resting his face in the crook of my neck. He has rested his one hand on my stomach. I can easily say that he is sleeping peacefully.

Last night what happened to him that he became so generous. He didn't force me to have sex with me. I am really grateful for that.

I tried to come out from his grip but he is hugging me very tightly. I touched his hand and something metallic touched my skin. I looked at his hand and the metallic thing was his engagement ring.

I don't know why I felt very bad after seeing the engagement ring. I felt that my eyes are becoming blurry due to tears.

What's this feeling? I shouldn't have felt like that. But, still, why did I feel very sad. He is not my lover nor my husband. Nor I love him and nor he loves me. Then, why I am feeling too much hurt?

Looking at the ring I remembered everything. I remembered what happened 7 months ago with me and my family. I remembered how I became his mistress.

Flashback from 7 months ago

I am at my school's graduation party. Today I have completed my high school with the highest grade. I am very happy about everything. I can't wait to share my feelings with my brothers.

I am very busy with my friends making fun with them.

Suddenly, my friend Neha said to me," Meher, after this party you have to come with me to my house. We are going to have a girl's party there. My parents are out of town. So, I am at home alone. It will be too much fun. I have told Pritika and Tanvi as well."

" ok. I will attend the party after changing my clothes in my house," I replied sipping the orange juice.

Neha said pouting," Come on yarr( friend). You don't have to change your clothes. We are directly going to my house."

Seeing her pouting I couldn't refuse her and said that I will come with her.

After the graduation party, we went to Neha's house for a party.

Neha is now busy decorating her room with some dark lighting. Pritika and Tanvi is also helping her. I also helped them.

I was feeling a little bit bored. So, I thought to watch TV for some time. I took the remote in my hand and started watching TV.

I am changing the channel when a news channel caught my attention.

I heard the reporter saying," A few moments ago police have arrested the famous billionaire Adeel Ahmed Khan in charge of murder."

Hearing the news the remote fell from my hand and my eyes became widened in too much shock. My brother is a murderer!! No, that's not possible.

I heard the reporter again saying," Adeel Ahmed Khan is arrested by police in the accusation of murdering another businessman Amir Al Saad."

Then the reporter again said," Adeel Ahmed Khan is taken to police custody. Currently, he is in central jail. Very soon his trial will be started."

Hearing all this I became numb for some time. This is not true. My brother can't do all this. My brother can't be a murderer.

I stood up from the couch and run towards the main door to leave Neha's house. I heard her calling my name but I didn't listen to her.

Coming out of her house I took a taxi and started my journey to the police station.

After 30 minutes car ride I reached there and requested the inspector to let me meet my brother.

The inspector permitted me and took me to the jail room where my brother was taken.

I saw him sitting on a bench lowering his head. I said crying," Adeel Bhaiya!"

He looked at me and said worriedly," Meher, what are you doing here?"

I hold his hand and said crying," Bhaiya, what's happening? I saw the news on TV. I know you didn't do anything."

He caressed my cheek and said affectionately," Don't worry. I will come out of jail very soon because I am innocent. I didn't do anything wrong."

" I know that you are innocent. Bhaiya, how will you manage everything? And how everything happened? I asked him panicking.

He said patting my head," You don't have to worry about everything. My PA Arham has started taking care of my case. You just go to the house and rest. Tell Asif to not to worry as well. Tell him to not stop his school because of all the chaos."

I nodded my head in positive and said crying," But, Bhaiya. How will you live here? In this jail room."

" Meher, listen to me. Look at me," Bhaiya said cupping my face in his palms.

I looked at him with my teary eyes. He said lovingly," Your Bhaiya will come out of the jail very soon. Just keep your trust in Allah. Ok?

I just nodded my head and he said smiling," That's my sister. Now, go to the house and rest. Don't worry about everything."

Next-Day Morning

Author's p.o.v

Meher woke up from her sleep a little late because she had slept late at night. She was very worried about her brother.

She came downstairs after doing her morning routine and found that breakfast is already served on the table. Asif has already left for school.

She started having breakfast but couldn't eat properly because her whole mind is occupied by her brother.

She will take another bite from the toast when the doorbell rang. She wondered who has come at this hour.

A maid opened the door and found that 4 people are standing in the door. They all are wearing suits and looking like they are any kind of high profile officials.

Meher came forward and asked confusingly," Umm yes. Whom do you want to meet?"

One of them showed his Id card to Meher and said with a professional voice," We are from Income Tax unit. We have information that 'Mr Adeel Ahmed Khan ' has made this house with black money."

Meher isn't understanding what are they talking about. She asked confusingly," What are you talking about? What black money?"

" We have more information that apart from the company Adeel Ahmed's every property is bought by illegal resources. Moreover, we have other information that Adeel Ahmed Khan is corrupted and involved in illegal businesses," Another one informed.

Hearing everything Meher become dumbfounded. She is looking at those officials with an open mouth when they handed her some documents.

One of them said professionally," We have order from the government to seize Adeel Ahmed's every property along with his bank balance."

" No, every property of our is legal. This can't be true. You might be mistaken," Meher replied nervously. She isn't understanding why income tax officers are in her house suddenly.

One of the officials replied," We have every proof of Adeel Ahmed khan being a corrupted person."

Meher replied worriedly," I don't believe all this. You all are lying."

" It doesn't matter what you think. We are giving two days to leave this house because this house is seized already," One of the official replied.

Before Meher could utter another word the officials left her house hanging a notice on her door.

Meher isn't understanding what she should do. Everything happened so fast that Meher became bewildered for some time.

Meher thought to Adeel in the jail to ask him about all this. Only Adeel can give her answer of all this.

" But, Bhaiya is already in jail. He might be very worried right now. It will not be right to tell him about all this," Meher thought in her mind. Her innocent mind isn't understanding what's her brother had done.

Suddenly, she remembered about Adeel's PA Arham. He might help her in this situation. He might know about all this income tax thing.

Without thinking anything further, Meher got ready. She knew that Arham is obviously in their company as her brother is in jail. Arham is obviously taking care of their company in the absence of Adeel.

Meher got into one of her brother's car and after 20 minutes car ride she is now in front of her brother's company.

But, seeing the scenery in front of her she became shocked.

The employees of their company are holding a procession  in front of the company building and saying only one thing in unison," Give back our rights. We want our salary."

She also found that Arham is trying very hard to convince the employees about something but the employees aren't stopping their saying.

" What the hell is happening here?" Meher said looking at the procession.
