Opening my eyes slowly, I met my surrounding engulfed in slight darkness. I adjusted my eyesight through the dim light and looked at my left side hoping to see Sweety, but she is not here.

Where she went?

My heartbeat started to pound heavily in my rib cage. "Sweety.." I called her name. My voice was barely audible but got no response from her. My throat felt dry. I was not able to swallow my own saliva.

I tried to sit on the bed but a piercing pain in my right hand came to my consciousness. Then I saw the IV was hooked with my right hand as well as the peeping machine which was on the left side is monitoring my heartbeat.

Weird...

Inhaling the fresh air deeply to comfort my throbbing lungs, I pulled out the needle from my hand. Immediately a small drop of blood dripped over my hand where the needle was attached before.

I looked aro

    I ran out of the office as how fast I could. I couldn't stand there even for a second. He lost his mind or else he wouldn't have humiliated me in front of everyone. Oh, God! Please get rid of me from this office, I don't want to work here not anymore. Hereafter, how I am going to face all the employees, the thinking brought sick to my stomach. I touched the corner of my lips by my thump where the piercing pain is erupting through and saw the small amount of bloodstains on my finger. He went too rough. Once I get inside the car I drove directly to my apartment not wanting to waste another second and changing my mind to killing him for thousand times just to calm my nerve. My visions are blurred through the whole driving because of my moisturized eyes. I don't know how I am going to make it safe to my apartment but I have to do this for the sake of Sweety.

    I sat on the bed when I heard the doorbell is ringing. I glanced at the wall clock and it showed one in the afternoon. Who was at this time? I wiped my tear-stained face with a towel and opened the door only to see Juliet who was standing there wearing a worried expression on her face. "I didn't expect to see you here," I said before opening the door for her to enter. "Sit, I get some water for you." I said and walked towards the kitchen. I set the cookies and two glasses of orange juice on the table then I took a place on the couch beside her. "Riya, it's not my first time me visiting your apartment. I don't think these formalities are still needed." I suppressed my lips to prevent letting out a sob. "I'm sorry, Riya. If you are not comfortable with me staying here, I will leave." I shook my head. "No need to say sorry Juliet, it's not your fault and

    ~~~Past Wind~~~ I combed his hair through my fingers which felt smooth as silk under my touch. He is so cute like a little puppy. I wonder how I am going to protect him from all the prying eyes. Yesterday they were shamelessly stared at my husband ignoring the murderous glare I had given to them when we were at the mall. Didn't they have any work than drooling over someone else's husband? I wanted to punch all of their faces but he had a strong grip around my waist or else they would be admitted to the hospital now. "What's going on in your pretty mind?" He asked bringing me out of my thoughts. "Ahh...Nothing?" I shrugged my shoulder and kissed his forehead but this jerk had another plane on his dirty mind, he pulled my head down and gave me a breathtaking kiss that I never forget. "I'm always yours; don't be jealous, my little kitt

    The wave of sadness rushed inside my body the moment I stepped inside the building where I don't want to spend any second of my life, simply wasting my whole energy just to arguing him. But fate has decided already and I have no option but to adjust myself at least for 20 months. Damn!!! It's 20 months!! How I am going to survive these days knowing the fact that the devil is beside me waiting for the better opportunity for claiming his mischievous attitude over me. "Morning! Miss. Kader." Payal greeted me when I crossed her table. I gave her a small nod and walked towards the elevator. Actually, this is not my behaviour. I will give them the same attitude that they have given me but today I am not in the right mind to show any kind of my sweet side but now I feel bad for treating her like this, as making her feel like not wanted when she didn't do anything.

    If he suspects any employees then he could investigate them in his own way otherwise digging everyone's profile is not going to help, it's a waste of time. Several employees are working in this organization. After all, this is one of the topmost companies all around the world. "Why all of a sudden he is showing some interest to me?" My inner voice asked me as I am an expert to answer her every question. An idea shone into my brain which caused me to smile inwardly. "I can do this by myself and I don't think your help is needed," I said and stoop up from the seat. He looked at me with a frown on his face. "Your wish but don't forget to submit the file within a week." "Sure." I said and walked out of his office. I have a plan in my pretty mind and I hope I will succeed. As he asked, I verified the file and asked Juliet to submit the f

    ~~~Past Wind~~~ "Don't stress around, eat healthy food, follow your meditation on time, do regular checkups and one more thing don't do any work that hurt you and the baby." I heard Kayish lecturing to his sister about being careful. Yesterday Rachel informed us that she is pregnant with a healthy baby and when I asked about how far she told eight weeks along. Kayish is so happy when he heard the news and went to cloud nine. He, going to become an uncle, made him nervous and excited at the same time. He continued his lectures about what to do and don't to do as he is a doctor and an expert for advising pregnant women. I pulled the bedsheets over my head and wrapped my arm around his waist. My eyelids get heavy and I closed my eyes. I didn't get enough sleep at night; he was so rough yesterday it's seemed like a punishment. Punishment for what? &nb

    I'm ready to murder him after what I had heard from Harith. I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply to calm my nerve otherwise the CEO of the Global Institute of Technology is no more alive. "He is busy, not now." Harith grabbed my hand when I was about to take a step towards his office. "I don't care." I said and looked down at my hand when I noticed he didn't release my hand from his strong grip. "He is not in his right mind; he has already fired ten employees who were working under the financial department just because they failed to submit the report on time. So it's not a good time for an argument. It will affect us more." He warned me again. "If he wants to fire me then he can, I don't care." I gritted my teeth while gradually saying every word but somehow he seemed calm which caused me to narrow my eyes at him. "Are you kidding me? He never likes the idea of firing you at le

    "What do you think? You can stay away from me just because she is helping you through your whole nonsense. Huh? I can see the harness in her eyes whenever she was working with me. I wonder what you told her about your past... I mean our relationship." He raised his brow. Now thing makes sense that why he fired her. Because she is the one who dared to come between us and he didn't like the way she was acting as my favour. So he fired her and if she is no longer between us, he will get his stinky attitudes on me. Harith is right. Juliet lost her job because of me, why didn't I think of it earlier that he is capable of doing whatever he wants even if it cost a life to get back whatever is rightfully his. "You shouldn't have done this to her. Her family is depending on her. She.. she just...please." I pleaded with him even though I hate this moment. For now, I wished the earth would open his mouth and sw

    "Come on, let's eat." Claire jumped in front of us and dragged me away from my Romeo. We went to the patio where the mouthwatering food is being served. I filled my plate with grilled Turkey, buffalo wings, mac, and cheese, crispy potato, Nuggets, and grabbed a glass of chocolate milk. Claire eyed my plates weirdly. "Girl, look at your plate." Ignoring her nasty comment, I walked away and took the place where Mom Daisy is feeding Sweety. "Hi, mom." I greeted and started to eat my meal. It took 30 minutes to empty my plates. "Riya, go and talk to them." Mom Daisy Nudged my shoulder gesturing me to talk to Kayish's mother. I didn't get the chance to engage in the proper conversation with her in my entire life. "But mom I-" I suppressed my lips. "No but." She narrowed her eyes at me. "Don't be mad at me, I'm goin

    "Kayish where are you taking me?" I asked but he kept pushing me forward, my eyes were blindfolded by the black ribbon beside I could hear the angelic giggle from my devilish daughter who knows where he is taking me and is taking advantage of this whole situation teasing me along with her dad. If it had happened to her she would have beat me a lot of questions by asking 'Mommy! where are we? Mommy! Have we reached? Mommy! How long does it take to reach? Mommy!-' until she gets the answer. "Be patience my girl." He whispered in my ears, his warm breath caressed my neck lovingly sending me goosebumps to my stomach. "We are almost reached." He unwrapped the ribbon from my eyes letting me see the beautiful views of a big house, besides all my loving people, are smiling ear to ear by welcoming me in their warm embrace. "T-this this-" I trailed off, my brain refused to function.

    "Kayish, we have an important meeting with our client Mr. Laurence Kavin. Do you remember?" I asked him while packing Sweety's lunch in her Tiffin box. "Yes! I remember." He replied standing in front of the mirror trying to fix his necktie. "Give it to me." I grabbed the tie from his hand and began to cross the wide end under the narrow end, while the tie hung inside out around his neck. "You smell amazing!" He pulled me towards his chest by my waist. "You are distracting me." I punched his chest, but he didn't flinch rather enjoyed teasing me more. I tightened the knot by pulling the wide end and adjusted the knot to the center of his shirt's collar. "Now, go Mr. Miller." I pushed his chest. "Where is my morning Kiss." He asked touching his lips seductively. "Okay!" I gave him a small peck on his lips and ran towards the living room. "Hey, it's not a kis

    "But how it happened? Aren't you with her, Mark!" Kayish’s panicked voice sent an alarm to my mind.What's now? I groaned in frustration and opened my eyes. He is standing near the door talking with someone on the phone. I took the alarm clock from the nightstand; it showed past 4 in the morning. If it had anything related to his business, I won't hesitate to throw him from my apartment. Seriously, his business is not important than my precious sleep, I hardly slept last night. I let out a defeated sigh and sat on the bed having a stern look on my face. And yes! whatever you are thinking is right, he is going to stay with me in my apartment. He didn’t even bother to invite me to his penthouse, not that I'm wanted but at least for the sake of formalities he can ask me whether I'm wished to go with him or not, instead he said he has planned something for me and when I asked about what was that, he simply gave me an anno

    "Stay inside the car, I will bring her." Kayish kissed my forehead before climbing out of the car to pick Sweety from her school. We are on the way to the hospital to take our first ultrasound. "Okay." I nodded my head and glanced outside the window where he was walking towards the campus. Ten minutes later, I saw both father and daughter are hugging each other while walking towards the car that put a smile on my face instantly. What a beautiful view!! "You got an amazing dad." I rubbed my stomach unconsciously. Kayish opened the door and placed Sweety on the back seat then joked to get inside the driver’s seat. "Mommy!" Sweety wrapped her hand around my neck from behind and kissed my lips. "Hey, baby." I rubbed her hair. "I want to sit here." She pointed to my lap, most probably she wanted to sit on the passenger seat. "Ahh--" How

    Recap: Oh, God! He is real!! Happiness overwhelmed my heart and I broke into tears whispering the three words that popped into my mind, "You are here." "You are here!" I screamed and ran towards him. In a swift motion, I jumped into his arms and buried my teary face on the crook of his neck. I seriously don't care what I'm doing but I want him to be alive. That one nightmare is enough for me to let go of my ego. I wrapped my legs around his torso while my hands found his neck then I started to sob like a kid. He didn't expect the outburst from me, but he caught me on time in his big arms pinning my body against his well-built chest. "You are here." I whimpered clutching him tightly. "I thought I lost you." I wiped the tears that were running through my eyes like an Angel falls. ~~~~~~ His grip on my wa

    I jerked from the couch where I fell asleep without my knowledge and the book, I was holding in my hand landed on the floor three feet away from me. For a second everything went blank. The heartbeat in my rib cage raised heavily as it had attended a 10 km marathon. Oh god!! It was a horrible dream that I never ever had in my entire life neither did I wish. How awful that was!!! I stared at the floor where he had laid in the pool of his own blood in my dream with so much emotion flooding through my heart. It felt real. I wiped the sweat on my forehead using the hem of my shirt and walked towards the kitchen to get a glass of water to let go of my anxiety. I took the water bottle from the fridge and gulped down a large amount of water in one shot. Why did I have that horrible dream? I didn't hate him that much, yet he came into my dream, and-- I can't even

    "I need your happiness. If you think he will bring everything back to normal in your life then who I'm to object your decision. I'm always with your side." He gave me a weak smile somehow, he is not happy with the idea of giving Kayish a chance. I nodded my head as a response not knowing what to say. Am I really ready to give him a chance? It's very hard to make a decision. "So, when you are going to get married?" I asked changing the topic. Claire's face flushed into red by the mention of marriage whilst Draco groaned playfully. "If your friend says okay, I'm ready to give a ring to her finger right now." He teased eyeing her the whole time. "Draco." She hit his shoulder playfully and hid her face on his back. For a moment I adored this beautiful duo in front of me but our sweet moments were interrupted by my lovely daughter. "Mommy!! Help." Sweety ran t
