Abrar
Her words forced me to get up. No matter how badly I wanted Zoya in my life, she was now like a drug to me. I didn't want her, but I fucking wanted her. She did nothing but destroy me, still, I couldn't get over her. I wished someone had ever told me how it felt to get betrayed by the person we trusted the most. At least, I would be ready. Ammi had taught me everything, except taking betrayal. She would do it if she had more time with me to deliver this. I took a glance at the sky. And a voice came from inside, "I wish you were here today"
"Abrar!", dadi's voice broke my muse again.
"I'm coming, dadi", I said and left the swing, turning towards the door.
"If your mother was here today, she would tell you how to tackle relationships", dadi scoffed from behind.
Betrayal breaks relationships. If there's no relationship, there's no need to tackle it.
I said nothing and walked out of the terrace.
Zoya
I stared at the food, hun
Zoya"Zoya!", dadi beamed from another side, her voice filled with happiness."Dadi, ssshhh", I shushed her so that she didn't talk aloud with me. I didn't want Abrar to know that I had called her."What happened?", she whispered."I don't want Abrar to hear us, please", I said.I heard dadi sighing."Okay", she agreed. "He is at the table and I'm standing near the couch. He can't hear us""Table? He's eating?", a smile curved on my face."After a lot of debate, I could finally bring him to the table. He's trying to eat", she said. I was glad that he had his grandparents. I couldn't imagine the consequences if he would be alone after this."How are you?", dadi scoffed. "I know you are still devastated"I couldn't reply and only gulp down, trying to find an answer."I'm trying to—", I paused."Don't worry. I'm here, no? I'll talk to him", she said."No, dadi. Let me handle thi
AbrarI walked into my room, almost forced. I didn't want to come here. She spent just three weeks in this room. Just three weeks and her effect was so strong. The entire room, every detail of this room reminded me of her. She changed the look completely after coming here. It seemed like there was nothing in this house which didn't remind me of her. She gradually made a way to my life, to my heart and left marks of herself on each detail of them.Turning off my sanity for a while I forced myself to come to the bed and lie down. My eyes closed shut automatically as my nose brushed against the pillow.The aroma of Jasmine teased my nostrils and it felt like I was smelling her.Her scent!My eyes shot up as I panted heavily, jumping off the bed. Gripping the edge of the bed, I was breathing heavily. Why was it so difficult? So hell difficult! To forget her for a while. Why couldn't she just get out of my head for a while?I fisted my hair and t
ZoyaI literally rushed out of the car and ran into the office building. My heart was racing faster and I was dying to meet Abrar. I had waited for long 24 hours which seemed no less than 24 years. I wished he understood that and replied at least once. I didn't want him to be sweet to me. But at least he could argue with me, he could insult me, he could blame me. Anything! Anything that made him speak to me. But he did none of them. His silence, the separation; both of these drove me crazy.I realized the employees gazing at me. They might have been into the incident of my birthday night. Then all those things on social media. I didn't care.Excited, I reached near Abrar's cabin and let out a sigh. I was waiting for my breathing to get normal. I didn't want to panic in front of him again. I needed to be calm as possible. Holding the knob I twisted it and came inside, keeping the smile on my face.But it vanished.It vanished when I discovered the c
Zoya"I didn't want to", a sob came out of me. "I never knew we would fall in love. It just happened. That's why it hurt him so much. I wish I knew that someday we would be in love"Thankfully, we were near my cabin which was too far from the staff area and I could let out my tears. Kaif didn't speak for a minute."But it didn't happen overnight. Right, Zoya? No one can fall in love suddenly. You should have told him right away when you sensed that feeling. It would cause less pain", he sighed."I was scared that he would drive me away", I said."He did it now also. Didn't he? What is the gain?", he gasped."I don't know. I don't know anything", I groaned. I had no explanation to give him. He was not in my place to understand my situation. "You might be right. But I'm just messed up and I made a mistake. I know", I looked up at him. "That's why I'm trying to fix this. But I can't do it if he continues to keep me away"My voice w
Zoya"Keep dreaming, Irtaza Kaiser", I shot him a glare and stepped closer to him, looking straight into his eyes. "You have seen what I can do for my father. To which extend I can go for him then you should also realise what I can do if it comes to those two precious men in my life. Don't take me lightly"He chuckled and stepped back while clapping. "Now, this is called fun. It'll be fun to have a battle with you, Zoya Ali. But there's a warning for all the fighters. One- never fight with that person who is not in love. Two- fight with that opponent who's madly in love. I hope you got my point", he winked at me and walked towards the door."Good luck, Zoya", I heard him saying from behind as he slammed the door.I pushed myself on the chair, leaning back and closing my eyes, my fists clutched. I wanted to yell out the anger."Arrgghh", I groaned, clutching my hair. Was all this not enough? When I was struggling with my life to put all the pieces b
AbrarKaif seemed to be hell shocked when I told him about the job. I looked down, scratching the mud with my shoe."What do you mean?", he shrugged. "You need a job? I can't understand. What the heck does that mean?", he panicked, turning towards me. I was still staring at the mud."I said what you heard, Kaif. I need a job. It'll be better if I can crack one in a week", I said."Are you kidding me, Abrar?", his voice was filled with shock and disappointment but he would not understand why I was taking such a huge decision."I'm serious", I told him, still keeping my eyes down."You're stupid", he scoffed and paused for a while before speaking again. "What made you take such a rubbish decision, Abrar? It's not you. You never take such decisions""Yes, you're right. This is not me and I don't think I'll ever be able to become the old Abrar", I said, lifting my eyes at the moon."I thought you wanted a break. But are you leaving
ZoyaEverything seemed to be like a mess. My desk was filled with files and papers scattered on the ground too. I had never been so disorganised before. It seemed like I never knew how the business worked. My degree and internship of six years seemed to be like a total wastage. But I knew somewhere it was because of my mental situation. I could hardly focus on anything. My head started to ache and I was messing up everything. Frustrated, I slammed the file aside and pushed my head on the table, pinning my forehead against it. I closed my eyes and took deep breaths for a while.I sensed someone nuzzling my hair so I abruptly got up, finding abbu next to me. He was smiling, a forced one."Abbu? You're at the office today?", I mumbled."I came here to pick you up", he said, making me confused."Pick me?", I rolled my eyes."Have you seen the time?", he asked, tilting his head at the clock behind me. I immediately turned and found out it was 12.
AbrarDays kept passing and I focused completely on finding a new job before I gave a resignation to this one. I was in contact with Kaif. He had been tracking all the vacancies for a long time. But this time he couldn't crack a single vacancy for me when I was easily getting them online. I wondered if he was lying. He was trying his best to make it up between me and Zoya. Was he deliberately not helping me out to get another job?Nonetheless, I still asked him about Zoya every day. He said she was okay. She had panicked once after knowing about my leave but then she managed to focus on the work. I hoped she had also accepted the truth and she would stop having any expectations from me. It would hurt her less.Dadi kept trying to convince me to talk to Zoya. As usual, I said I needed some time. Dadajan hardly talked to me. Before he could forgive me for marrying without informing them, he got offended by the recent mess. Proving me wrong, Mr. or Mrs Ali didn't t
