I stepped out of the car gaping at the huge hospital building in front of me. I've seen this hospital before....many times. But what shocked me is that....this hospital was made and funded by this Devil?!
"I'll park the car in the parking lot. You two go ahead." Taha told me and Ruzhaan. I followed him in trying to match up with his long strides.
He opened the door to a special ward and gestured me to go in. I was so scared as to what I might witness inside.
Then.... I saw him.
He was still unconscious, a heart rate monitor, IV drops and some other machines were attached to him along with the oxygen mask. I went and sat on the stool beside him with teary eyes."It's been two days. Why hasn't he woken up?" I asked
"Shall I show you."•••He said and grabbing my nape pulled me to him that my body clashed into his hard one making me gasp. His playful eyes travelled down from my eyes to my lips. I shut my eyes tightly as his head suddenly swooped down just enough for his lips to brush slightly. I stopped breathing and my heart was pounding.Finally, his moist parted lips caught my lower lip in between them as he kissed me making my dry lips wet. He sucked on it slightly and then my upper lip.I just stood there like a doll. I don't know what I was feeling. But the gentleness of his lips with the subtle dominance was melting me somehow. There was no way I could give in but the warmth of his chest was making resisting quite hard for me.He gave a slight lick with the tip of his tongue on my lips and pressed both his lips on mine giving an audible kiss before releasing
After a couple days, Ruzhaan took me to the Supermarket for shopping. I made a big list on my mobile. He first asked Taha to take me shopping but that guy dragged him out saying he was busy.One by one I begun putting things in the cart that he was dragging behind me. It was quiet a sight to behold actually. A Mafia leader dragging shopping cart behind his wife.I stopped at the utensils section. We need to buy a lot of those. It was soo exciting! There were soo many new things."Tsk! Women don't even get this excited when they're out to buy diamonds and you're getting excited seeing frying pans?" He mocked me."There are soo many offers and look...the casserole set is amazing too. Which one should I pick? The pink one has 4 pieces and the black one has 5."
There was such a long silence that even I felt awkward. So I cleared my throat."L... let's go Rahina."Taha turned to his heels."O....kay..." I said confused and stood up reluctantly. Something wasn't right. Those two wouldn't even look at us now. He just kept on walking ahead as I tried to catch up to him."Hey Taha....was that Aunty your.... mother?" I asked carefully.He kept mum and was just walking ahead."Taha....""JUST SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND GET IN THE FUCKING CAR!" He yelled at me making me flinch.I got in the car quietly but still ... something didn't feel right. The curious uneasiness.... wanting to do something... won't go away."I have to go..." I said and darted back in
Next day I got a call from Sarah and I excitedly ran to Taha."Taha....Sarah and Aunty wanted to come here to see you so I invited them for lunch today.""Really?!" he said happily but then his smile faded."Uh...oh..""What's wrong?""They're coming here? But how do they know about here?!""Oh, it's because I told them.""And what else did you tell them?" He questioned crossing his arms."I told them that their son is a businessman who imports and exports spare parts of vehicles and has a lavish bungalow and they should be proud of you." I said grinning proud at myselfHe laughed nervously."Rahina...we are Doomed! Totally... completely finished!""Why?" I asked confused."Rahina you are not my wife...you are not pregnant...this isn't my house and I am not a businessman who sells
We all sat for lunch together and I sat beside Taha as 'Someone's' glaring eyes were fixated on us.Like I care!"The food is delicious!""Thankyou Aunty." I smiled."Are you still calling me Aunty? Abh mai tumhari Saas hu. Ammi bulao mujhe in dono ki tarah. (I'm your mother in law now. Call me Ammi like these two.) You're like my daughter too now." She scolded gently"Ji Ammi." I said shyly.Suddenly Ruzhaan started coughing badly."What's wrong?" Taha asked worried."Oops...looks like he couldn't handle a bit of spice." I mockedHa! I added an extra spoonful of chilli powder in his pulao. Serves him right. Bloody Mr. Flirt.Sarah immediately handed her own glass of water to him.Huh! This girl.... she's no less either!He was glaring at me
"Rub some ice on it. It will feel better."Taha said handing me the ice tray as he avoided eye contact."Thanks." I said taking it."Sorry you had to suffer soo much because of me." He said guiltily."It's ok. You were my only friend in this house. I owed you. And now that you're happy...your family's happy....what else can I ask for." I smiled assuringly.He gave a half smile pating my head and left somewhere.Third person POV,Burning with rage and frustration Taha slammed open the Study door where he knew Ruzhaan would be at the moment."Ho gaya tum dono ka drama?" (Is your drama over)Ruzhaan asked sardonically.Without a word Taha grabbed his collar and slammed him to the wall getting no reaction from Ruzhaan what so ever."Abh ye bhi tere drame ka hissa hai?" (Is this part of your drama to
When I came outside, he was already lying on the bed. Guess I have no choice but to bear with him. I took a spare pillow and blanket and kept it in between."This is the forbidden boundary. DO NOT cross the line! I repeat... Do not come at my side." I warned."Ok, for now! But I can't guarantee what might happen in my sleep. My hands and legs can go anywhere... up, down.... inside or outside." He winked.I just wanted to strangle his neck and kill him."Then try to control them!" I grumbled and laid down on the bed. He turned off the lights and with great difficulty I don't know when I fell asleep.∆∆∆∆I woke up to the sound of grunting and screaming as if someone was in immense pain and when I looked to my side....it was Ruzhaan!I woke up from my deep sleep that's why I was panicking a lot but it was a false alarm. He was just having a nightmare.&nbs
I arranged the things that Taha asked for and as soon as I heard the car I ran to the door. Taha was bringing Ruzhaan inside with his arm resting on his shoulder while Ruzhaan was half unconscious. My eyes blinded with tears as I saw his shirt completely covered in blood."He's ok... don't worry." Taha said assuringly but I couldn't believe him.Taha laid him on the bed as I had gone all numb seeing his condition."Rahina...go bring the kit."I couldn't hear him."Rahina!" He shook my shoulder making me flinch."He's ok... I've got him. He'll be ok in a few hours." He assured me in a gentle tone. I shook my head as I was already crying.He held my shoulders and made me sit beside Ruzhaan on the bed and brought the first aid. He tore open his shirt and I felt dizzy seeing the bleeding long wound at the side of his abdomen.
“This dish is delicious mom. Can you teach me to cook this?” I asked my mother in law.“Of course.. Come by anytime.”“Okay”Ruzhaan's parents have accepted him too and Thankfully, everything is back to normal in this family. Mom invited us to live with them but Ruzhaan said he still wasn't ready. So we just visit them occasionally ....like now.Suddenly while eating… I felt so nauseous.“Rahina…are you okay?” Ruzhaan asked. I shook my head.I covered my mouth as I felt like vomiting. Shit not here..not here… I got up and ran to the bathroom. I WAS VOMITING MY GUTS OUT THERE.“Rahina?”“No wait don’t come.” I said to Ruzhaan who followed me worried.“Don’t see… it’s disgusting.”“oh..ok..but are you okay?”I flushed, rinsed my mouth and came out.“Yes… sorry
"Ruzhaan?" I took a step back from his embrace while his arms were still around me."Hm?""There's someone who needs to take to you. Please listen to him ok?" I said pointing behind at Uzair.Ruzhaan clenched his jaw."Please Ruzhaan...." I blinked at him cutely and he sighed giving up."Fine."I smiled and giving a quick kiss on the cheek, left him to go to his brother.Third person POV,"Uzair!"Uzair flinched at his brother's rough voice and hesitated a bit before turning to him."Hey!" He said.There was an awkward dead silence for a long while until, Uzair saw from a distance as Rahina was cutely gesturing him to initiate conversation. He smiled sadly to himself."Everyone.... eventually falls for you huh?"
We both got home safely but on the way some thugs tried to stop us but Uzair took care of them. I could even hear gunshots at a near distance. It was as if I was living in a nightmare.Will the guys be ok?I was still in shock while pacing back and forth in the front yard. Uzair was watching me from a distance silently.I felt weak and suddenly my head started spinning and my body became heavy.Everything went dark.... again!Third person POV,Ruzhaan and the gang came back home. Some badly wounded and some not soo much. They had to infiltrate the enemy territory and create a distraction. It wasn't an easy task.... especially without proper planning. But they had Ruzhaan and Taha as thier leaders.... that's why they could win.Ruzhaan could only think about Rahina and acted rashly but Taha was there to take care of such things. That's why, those two weren't
Ruzhaan was blazing with fury and fear at the same time as he threw his phone hard crashing it pieces on the floor."Yeh wahi Delhi wala hai na jisse tu milne gaya tha? Kya bola wo?"(He's that Delhi guy that you went to meet? What did he say?)"He has my Rahina. And he's threatening me that he'll...." Ruzhaan shut his eyes banging his fist on the table."Don't worry. He won't lay finger on our bhabhi if I cut of his hands and cascatrate him. Let's go. I'll ready the boys."Saying that Taha turned to leave."No need. He has called me alone.""So what? You'll really go alone? Have you lost it already? That man us a beast. Don't you remember what happened last time? He managed to stab you even though we were there. His gang in huge....and he'll make sure you both don't get out alive." Taha warned."That beast has my Rahina. And do you really think I
I'm back home now and continued my college as before. I meet my friends everyday, live with my family, in short, I'm back to my perfect mundane life just like before but now....all this feels soo pointless. I've gotten soo used to that crazy Mafia squad that without them... it's all feels soo.... empty.Although, I still talk to Taha bhai. He's back from the hospital and is recovering well. Atleast that's good news. Uzair is still missing I've heard and after that day, I haven't seen him either. As for Ruzhaan, he's just like a stranger to me but I can't stop thinking about that stranger.I think I've lost it. I crave to see atleast a glance of him, I dream about him every night. Whenever I remember his last words for me, I always end up crying. I have no appetite nor do I sleep well like before. My friends say I've changed a lot and my smile has lost somewhere. Mom noticed it too I guess so she doesn't scold or taunt me like before. She doesn't ev
As if this wasn't enough, I received another good news that Taha regained consciousness. I literally ran to the hospital where Ruzhaan was already present although Uzair's whereabouts were still unknown.As soon as I saw Taha sitting on the bed with a smile on his face for me I couldn't help but start crying with joy. I just ran to him and hugged him screaming,"Bhai!""Ok! Ab tum dono ka milan milap bas hua!"(Ok! Now enough of your hugging)Ruzhaan said peeling me off Taha and pulling me closer to himself as I watched him blinking confused.Taha sighed heavily"This jealous husband of yours. What will I ever do with him?" He said shaking his head.I just continued to cry."Stop crying sis. I'm ok now. Look! And I'll be out of here soon too." He said messing my hair."I missed you calling me sis soo much. I'm s
Third Person POV,The doctors allowed Ruzhaan to see Taha shortly. Seeing Taha in that condition made his heart ache and he couldn’t stop his tears. He sat beside his dear friend holding onto his motionless hand. Memories of his past haunted him. It wasn’t the first time someone was like this because of his own brother… he didn’t know if he could resent him anymore. No matter how much he comforted Rahina saying that Taha would be back, but deep inside he was scared too that he might never be able to see his friend who was more dear to him than his own blood.“Itne jaldi jayega kya saale. Pehle toh bade bade wade kar raha tha. Saath jaayenge..saath marenge..apna sapna pura karenge. Apna sapna toh abhi bhi intezaar kar raha hai yaar. Uthja mere Bhai…Apne jaisa nahi hone dena hai unhe. Wo bacche intezar kar rahe hai apna unka future sudharne. Rahina bhi ro rahi thi tere liye. Teri behen aur maa ko ab tak kuch pata nahi hai. Apne baap ko bi
Taha was rushed to the hospital immediately. As they actually owned the hospital so there was no need for a police case and I doubt they even approach the police.He was taken in for operation while we waited outside. Uzair had ran away and we had no idea where he was. I had to inform Ruzhaan but I was soo in shock that I didn't know how and what to say. With fidgety fingers, I called him. He didn't answer in first time, maybe he was in a meeting but then he answered."Hello, what's wrong? I told you I'll be busy in a meeting." He said softly.I broke down again hearing his voice and that's when I realised how desperately I wanted to see him"Rahina? What's wrong? Why are you crying?" He sounded worried now."Taha bhai... he's.... he's in the hospital... he's hurt.... please come here.... please.... Ruzhaan.... I need you.... I'm soo scared.... Taha bhai...he won't wake up...
"U... Uzair let go! Y....yeh kya batameezi hai!"(What arrogance is this?)I tried to yell but my voice couldn't come out that loud"Batameezi? (Arrogance?) Now even my touch is offensive to you?!" He grunted twisting my arm behind my back."Ah!" I yelped wincing in pain as his grip on my wrist was soo tight."Stop it Uzair!""You were mine Rahina, he stole you from me. We were about to get married, we were about to be happy but he put me in a comma and forcefully married you. I love you Rahina and you love me. Didn't you say that yourself? Then, what happened in these past months...what kind of black magic has he cast on you? Why can't you look at me the way you look at him? Why soo distant from me while you're soo close to him?!" He yelled at my face.I was too scared by now, literally shaking."Please... Uzair!"I somehow managed to
