THIRD PERSON'S P.O.V
In one of the prestigious hotel sat three young people: Humeyra, Wahid and Hamdan. Wahid was not yet over the fact that his first love was going to marry someone else. He felt resentful yet his love for her was enough to keep him seated ready to protect her if need be for today he was her Mahram. He was ready to concede to any decision she makes if it made her happy. He was seated far enough from the two to give them some privacy where as he can hear them too. Though not related by blood he had the responsibility to protect her as her brother for they grew up together under the same roof.
In the secluded family room on the other table sat a young lady and her man talking.

THIRD PERSON'S P.O.VHamdan was in a panicked state while Wahid was on the verge of a breakdown due to the intensity of his guilt for what he had done to his sister before. He had no idea that her past was uglier than the scariest horror movies out there for this was no fiction but a real life experience. It was a wonder she was still sane after witnessing such a gruesome incident which even a grown up won’t be able to handle.Hamdan's dam was overflowing with tears as well. He had rejected her once upon a time without really getting to know her as a person. He had judged her as just another spoilt little brat who had no Hayaa yet what he discovered today pieced his heart as if he had numerous tiny invincible pieces of needle poking at it.He ached for her 10 year old self whereas he felt for the 23year old girl who kept such a dark past buried for 13 long years. He ached for his love.“I never knew that she had gone through such a nightmarish e

The level of possessiveness differs from one person to another and from one gender to another. It’s widely known that men are more possessive but the fact remains, women are more possessive. What makes the difference is that women have more patience.~HumeyraTHIRD PERSON'S P.O.VIt was weird how every time she forgets her principles with that man by her side. The two ended up spending the night in the same room. How did it get to that stage?ImmediatelyWahid left, Hamdan had embraced Humeyra after apologizing to her.

THIRD PERSON'S P.O.VThings are not always as they seem. Do not believe everything you see for there are always two sides of a coin.Assumption is the mother of wrong judgement.Hamdan was at the office for the first time after he took a two weeks break to stay with his new bride. He felt extremely joyous and contented. He had all he ever needed. What else could he ask for! As he continued on with his work, Hamdan got a notification on his phone. It was almost time for lunch and he anticipated going back to eat his zawj’s delicious meal. He decided to check the notification which was from an unknown number.He didn’t expect to see what he saw. He knew that face too well. He woke up to it every single morning after their nikah and fell asleep watching his angel! No! It can’t be! She……she possibly couldn’t cheat on him with another man! No…..not his Humeyra! How! How could she do that to him? Ho
HER SECRETS, HIS LOVE His protection
THIRD PERSON'S P.O.VIt's a beautiful cloudless night. The breeze is cold and the wind was making it colder. In an old man's embrace laid a broken soul that lost her voice for the second time in her life. The mood is gloomy. Gloomier than funeral as the father and brother duo tried to figure out what broke their angel. The broken angel, however, was whimpering like a wounded cub. Tears as precious as the last drops of water in desert, where the scotching sun burns hot the oasis completely dry and the desert unbearably. Tears like water from a running tap, all shed for the one person to whom her heart belongs. The one whose love hurts her most. Tears worthy of bullets. How bitter the salty water from the eyes when triggered by the darkest deepest memories that you tried to bury for years.These were all Humeyra's feelings. It has been less than 24 hours since she experienced the nightmares she has tried her hardest to forget. She was on the verge of
HER SECRETS, HIS LOVE His Queen
HAMDAN’S P.O.VI was once again in Humeyra’s room on my knees like I have been doing every other day that I paid a visit to her home. I have made numerous mistakes in life and hurt a lot of people in this world, yet the one that I have hurt the most is the one I love the most too. Ever since my anger clouded my judgments and my ego took over my senses, my beloved Zawjy has been staying at her father’s place for almost a month now. Knowing that her father was suffering from last stage cancer was not helping the already difficult situation.My guilt increased ten folds just thinking about it but she needs me and giving up was not an option.Today was no exemption. Like every other day I have been visiting, she looks numb as her eyes seemed lifeless. As I kneel in front of my other half, she looked at me with no feelings whatsoever in her eyes where her face was devoid of all emotions. I felt as if I was staring in to a bottomless pit of darkness as

DeathLife without struggles is not living but simply existing. It's the hardship and struggles that you face which make you stronger and a better person. It's the hate that you receive that helps you become stronger. It's the love that you feel that keeps you on your toes. You dont have to impress anyone rather people have to be impressed by you for who you really are. Those who truly love you will stay and stick around even when they see your ugly side. They will accept you wholeheartedly without hesitation and will defend you without asking for anything in return. Be the hero that you are. Make someone's life easier whenever you can. Do not be afraid to love and show those your love the affection you have for them. Rather embrace them and shower them with love and remind them of your love for death comes with no warning. It neither knocks nor seeks permission. It just takes.~Humeyra

HER SECRETS, HIS LOVE New Beginning
Hamdan paced up and down along the corridor as he anxiously waited for news. He had rushed Humeyra to the hospital the minute she notified him of her water breaking.Fortunately, the hospital wasn't far from where they were. Looking at his wristwatch, a frown etched on his face. It had been three hours since he brought her here. Why wasnt there any news yet?Was she perhaps in danger? Did something go wrong? His mind was filled with all sorts of negative thoughts. It would be his fault if anything happens to her. His guilty conscience won't let him have peace."Ya Allah. Please, help her deliver safely. Please ya, Rahman. You are the most merciful. She has suffered a lot already. Don't let her suffer anymore."He prayed in his head as he continued pacing around. He couldn't bring himself to relax.
