Chapter 3
Marry went and took Hoor with her. Hoor sat on the breakfast table, cook came and started placing food on table .She was also mesmerized after seeing Hoor. Pancakes, omelets , boiled eggs and different type of sliced fruits were placed infront of Hoor.
She looked at the whole table, but a sigh left her lips and she took a boiled egg and some sliced fruits.she kept her eyes down on her plate . The innocence on her face was making Mary and the cook swoon over her even more.
Hoor went to her room after breakfast . She had seen that her books were already placed in the bedroom. She took one and went towards the indoor pool which could be seen clearly through her room. There were chairs and plants placed at the side. She took a seat and settled down.
She went down for lunch , after that she decided to take a nap. In the evening , she was sitting in the pool area, when Arhaan entered the room to get his clothes .
He froze at his place, seeing the beauty sitting infront of him. She had beautiful blue eyes with honey brown hair . Her cheeks were pink and plum like a babies, her lips looked suck able. Her collarbones and slim neck could be seen clearly from there .
Arhaan was thinking , who was this beautiful girl sitting there. He had totally forgotten that he married a girl yesterday , and it could be only her, present here .
He was busy in his thoughts when Mary opened the door with a glass of water in her hand for Hoor "sorry sir, I didn't know , you returned. I came to give water to mam" she said confirming that it was Hoor .
Arhaan turned his eyes away from Hoor , though it was difficult for him . He had seen many beauties in his life, Hoor was one of a type , but he wasn't weak to fall for faces so easily .
Arhaan went to freshen up without saying anything .
The reception was going to take place after some weeks , thats why , there were no guests or any special works taking place in the home.
Arhaan went out for dinner, he came late at night, he saw Hoor sleeping peacefully when he went to get his night suit . He couldn't help himself and went near her, the innocence on her face was calling to every protective instinct in him .
He wanted to protect her and cherish her , he didnt know where these feelings were coming from . He had never felt protective of anyone , except his family. His parents had died when , he was 22 and Amal 20 . He had taken over the business with the support of Arish, his best friend and now Amal's husband also .
He shook his head and got up. He again slept in the room beside his.
This continued for a week. Hoor hadn't even seen him properly yet. She was happy that she was left alone. She could do what she wanted, no one was there to hurt her . There was nothing more she could wish for .
She freshened up and started waiting for her breakfast in her room, she preferred to eat there as there was no one to join her on the table, just some servants watching her with different expressions. Their eyes didn't disturb her, but she was cherishing her privacy .
It was Sunday and already long past 8 , she frowned , thinking "why is Mary not here yet? Is everything okay ?"she was getting worried , because Mary always came to her in morning to check on her and ask about breakfast .she was brought out of her thoughts, when someone entered the room.
Arhaan was getting more and more restless with each passing days, he wanted Hoor to ask for money or for anything which would show her greedy nature like her family . But she didnt even try to talk to him or asked for anything . She seemed content in what she was given. Thinking bad about her was getting difficult for him with each passing day .Its been a week and he had decided to talk to her . Maybe she would give him a reason to hate her , maybe he would stop feeling such protectiveness or attraction towards her .It was Sunday , he decided to do breakfast with Hoor. He liked to do breakfast in his room or in balcony when he was alone . He only sat on the dining table when someone was their to join him. His room was an apartment in itself . There was a sitting area, poolside , dressing room all connected to it .He entered the room with all his walls up , he didnt want to l
Hoor froze on her way out , seeing Arhaan standing in the middle of the room with his arms wrapped below his chest .He looked at her with a raised eyebrow "does it take you 37 minutes to change?” He asked looking at his watch .Hoor flushed and started looking here and there .Arhaan was enjoying teasing her."Come and sleep now "he said and Hoor looked at him wide eyed."Wont....you leave? "She asked looking at him with flushed cheeks. It was a big hit on Arhaan's ego, girls died for his closeness and his own wife wished for him to leave her alone .He swallowed hard to control his anger and moved towards her.Hoor noticed the change in his demeanor, she averted her eyes down.Arhaan wrapped his arms around Hoor's waist and leaned down, so that his face was closer to her. He held her chin and made her look at him. The moment his eyes met her blue pools, he felt his anger melting away ."You know , I'm
Arhaan wrapped his arm around her and placed her in his lap . She was petite , it wasn’t difficult for him .Hoor was shocked by sudden movement , she looked at him wide eyed and placed her hands on his chest.Her cheeks were turning bright red and tears were ready to flow. Arhaan cupped her cheek and whispered "its okay ,its okay “he said pulling her closer. Hoor hid her face in his neck ,she wanted a break from her inner conflict .Arhaan soothed her for sometime and then pulled his plate forward . Hoor finally remembered their position and tried to get up but he held her still. Her cheeks were now red with some other reason .for her, his closeness was comforting , but there was also fear of losing , of being hurt again behind it .Arhaan impaled a piece of fruit in his fork and took it near her mouth . When she didnt open her mouth , he gave her a stern look .she finally opened her mouth relaxing
Next day , Arhaan woke Hoor with him . She was pouting at being awaken early , but he didnt say anything . He chose a simple shirt with sweatpants for her and took her to his private gym. The servants weren’t going to come until 7:30 .Arhaan was doing his exercise but also acting like her personal trainer. He was giving her water bottle , whenever she needed . Once , Hoor got tired , Arhaan asked her to go and freshen up . He planned to work out for some more time . When he returned to their room , he saw that Hoor had already taken a bath and now was wearing a beautiful frok in grey color.She was busy drying her hair ,Arhaan took his clothes and went to shower . When he got out dressed, Hoor was still standing there, but she hadn’t tried to comb her hair . Arhaan took the brush but Hoor tried to stop him "you get ready ,Mary can help me "she said softly ."No, Mary can help you d
Next day, he was in office, when he got a call from Mr. Siddiqui."Assalamualikum Arhaan , its like you have forgotten us after taking my daughter away "he said in a sugary tone."Wasalam Mr. Siddiqui, its nothing like that "Arhaan said putting up with the man. He was trying to be more bearable about this man just because of Hoor."If nothing's like that , then have dinner with us tonight “Mr. Siddiqui said happily.Arhaan didn't want to waste a second on this man, but then he thought about Hoor , she must be missing her family...."Okay ! We will have dinner at your place tonight. “Arhaan ended the call after bidding bye.In evening, when he went home, he saw Hoor in the garden. She gave him a big smile came inside with him. Her smiles never missed to skip his heart beat ."How was your day? "Arhaan asked ruffling her hair ."
They sat still looking at the water for sometime, but then Hoor started straightening her legs, bringing them out of water .Arhaan could see her feet calloused , indicating that she had been dipping her feet from a long time now .Arhaan held her legs and changed her angle , Hoor was only able to gasp at his doings . He placed her legs on his thighs and started giving her foot massage softly ."Arhaan please .... " she said , her cheeks were tomato red ." why are you looking so dull? I took you , expecting that it will make you happy?" Arhaan asked trying to take her mind off the foot massage.Hoor looked at him with her big grieved eyes , as if asking him to see everything in them, she won't be able to sayit ."You trust me? " Arhaan asked on a whisper .Hoor quickly nodded her head but tears started filling her eyes .Arhaan pulled her close
After some days, in afternoon, Hoor was sitting in the living room , when she saw a beautiful girl entering .Mary was also behind her . She was also looking really happy after seeing the girl ."Hello "the girl around 24 or 25 greeted ."Hey "Hoor said getting up , she was confused and a bit nervous. The girl infront of her was really beautiful and Hoor wasn't even a bit confident about her own looks . A lot of doubts and questions were entering her mind regarding the girl and her relationship with Arhaan."She is cute" the girl awed looking at Hoor ."I am Amal , Arhaan's sister "she introduced herself and Hoor felt herself relaxing . She gave Amal a big smile and Amal ended up swooning a bit more over Hoor .She pulled Hoor in for a hug . " consider me your sister. You haven't met me till now, because I was out of country with my
It was reception day . Hoor and Amal was getting ready at home, beauticians came there. Amal was completely ready in her blue gown , her nude makeup was looking very good on her .She was looking at Hoor , who was almost ready . Her dress, shoes , jewelry , clutch in short everything was ordered by Arhaan and Hoor was simply loving it . When Amal asked Arhaan that she wanted to gift her earrings matching to her reception dress, then Arhaan only said " you can gift her anything you want , but on that day, she will be dressed completely according to my choice "And his choice in everything was spectacular, the living example was Hoor standing in front of the mirror completely ready .She was looking like a queen in her dull golden gown ,which was flared out from the waist . Her makeup was done with a light hand .she had heels on , the beautiful gold stilettos , but she looked ready to fall
