Possession 16 (ii) Not you, Zahra
"I don't know what will happen to me," Haseeb said as he continued to roam here and there like a lunatic. All four of them were meanwhile collected in Zahra's room."You coward. Be a man and face it with dignity" Dua sassed although she was also afraid for him, Zahra, Haya, and herself but didn't show it."Shit! Why didn't I think of it?" Haseeb replied to her in the same tone."Because you don't have a brain stupid. Just tell Irtaza bhai you wanted to go and you always do what you want." Dua joked to break the lock of the thick and hypertensive surroundings."Haan (yes) why not. I will absolutely do as you say and then your brother will break almost all my bones." He replied."Wow, how did you get there? I exactly want that to happen." She teased"Brain baby brain," He answered.."Can you guys stop pulling each other legs because it's already 9:15. Think of something solid to give as an excuse." Saif said while entering the room. He only had a single motive to somehow alleviate their
Possession 17 (i) Kneel
The door shuts. And she was left alone. She helplessly looked towards the closed door. Her heart drummed in her ears. Her face paled and her hands clammy with nervousness and fear. "Zahra" he called out her name. She turned around and saw him seated on his chair, pensively looking at twirling the pencil in his fingers. His thick black eyelashes shadowed his well-defined cheekbones as he leaned against the back of his chair. His face was stoic, void of any humane emotion, and depicted as if he was in deep thought. Moments passed but he continued to look at the twirling pencil. And then he slowly and steadily looked upwards. His eyeballs follow the slow movement of his eyelids. It was then their eyes matched. Gleaming grey against dull brown! His strikingly sharp gaze pinned her to the spot. His eyes were intense as always and his grey iris was as usual sparkling like diamonds in the middle of his eyes. His eyes can engage someone just by a single glance. They were like a universal
Possession 17 (ii) Relieved
"Kneel." He ordered causing her heartbeat to go wild. "Sorry" she abruptly said. "Shh..... not a single word." He replied. She knew what was coming will not be good and will traumatize her. She cant do it. "Kneel Zahra" He ordered in his manly voice causing cold shivers to run down her spine. "No! Please! No am sorry!" She hysterically said. A voice kept on banging at the back of her head. Run! Run! Run! She took a step back towards the door and moved her hand towards the doorknob to unlock it whilst still looking straight into his eyes, already knowing he is watching her every move like a hawk. But nothing was coming into her mind at that time. It was chaotic, filled with horrifying thoughts, frightening her more and more. Her sanity was running out and she did what that voice said, made an attempt to run. He tilted his head and watched her amusedly, his hands in his pockets. He already had told her, that her petite frame was not able to bear the wrath of his punishments but
Possession 18 (i) Escape plans
She pulled off of his shoulder when her sobs died and her mind cleared. Her eyes trailed towards the wet spot of her tears on his shirt "I am sorry," she said looking down. She didn't know what hit her that she began to cry on his shoulder. He stared at her small form. Her eyes were swollen due to the immense crying. Her big eyelashes were drenched in her wet tears. The tip of her nose was bright red. Her cheeks tinted pink and her lips slightly quivering with fear as she took them between her teeth to stop their tremble. His eyes stopped at her red, luscious lips and he moved his thumb towards her chin to free her lips from her white, shiny teeth, which she hesitantly did. The pad of his thumb slowly began to graze the flesh of her pink lips, feeling the softness underneath his thumb. His eyes intensely staring her. Her body was now a bundle of nerves. His intense stare was making her hot all over and without any doubt, she knew her cheeks would have been turned red. His pupils di
Possession 18 (ii) The call
"Zahra baji, (sister) how will we solve this problem?" Five year old Alizey asked. She sat by Zahra who was helping her do her homework. "Alizey, why your Irtaza bhai is so rude?" Zahra asked out of nowhere to the six years old girl. She was in deep thought of mapping out a plan of escape when the thought of Irtaza's strictness and harshness towards her crossed her mind and then she began to dwell on whether he is only rude to her? "Nooooo baji! Irtaza bhai is the besttt...bestestttttt. He is not rude." Alizey exclaimed and raised both her hands, stretching them in the air to show how good her Irtaza bhai was. "No Alizey. He is rude and scary like a beast." Zahra countered. Her voice getting childish. "Beast?" "Yes like a beast. The one in the beauty and the beast. He is exactly like him." "No Zahra baji. The beast is so ugly but Irtaza bhaji is sooooo handsome and he brings me a lot of chocolates and presents. And he gives me whatever I ask him. And he also kisses me on my cheek
Possession 19 (i) Her sanity
Regret. It was what she felt the very next second those words left her mouth. She didn't know what brought those words out of her mouth. For the past few days, she felt everyone around was pushing her into an abyss of darkness. She didn't want this marriage yet she already had given her consent. Every single soul around her was busy with the preparations for her wedding. But she wanted to stop all of these arrangements and hustle and bustle in the haveli at any cost. With every passing day, she felt an unusual feeling surrounding her. She was feeling that soon she is going to be caged as few weeks were left for the rukhsati. No idea was coming to her mind that how to stop this marriage. She wanted to run and run until no one can find her. She wanted to scream this in front of everyone that she is being forced into this marriage. But she didn't have the courage to do so. She did not know how to stand for herself. Only one crazy thought hit her mind that compelled her to blurt those wo
Possession 19 (ii) Caged?
"Dua, Haya beta at least drink juice. You both didn't even have your breakfast properly "Their grandmother said as both Dua and haya were rushing out of the haveli. Their summer breaks from the university were over and today was there the first day after the holidays. "No dadi please we are already late," Dua said quickly as she watched her clock and her eyes widened for a millisecond. "Haya when is your first class?" She asked. "At 9:30. Now come on hurry we're getting late." Haya said. "Dumb it's 8:30 yet we still have an hour left." "WHAT?" "Yes, the arrow of my wristwatch was showing it at 9:30 but when I saw it it was 8:30. We woke up extra early." "Now you both come on and get your breakfast." Asma aunty said as they both moved towards the table and got seated. "Zahra what are you studying? Why don't you get admission into one of the universities in this area?" Dua asked Zahra as she poured some juice into her glass. "Doctor of pharmacy. Next year will be my last year."
Possession 20 (i) The plan begins
"What is it?" She asked. "Listen," he took a deep breath before spilling out the whole plan which brewed up into his mind. "We have two weeks Zahra. Exactly after two weeks, we will be running away from your university. Running from haveli is out of options due to the security and Irtaza will not allow you to wander outside without him so the only option left now is your university. But Zahra within these two weeks you have to try your best to somehow gain his trust. If you have his complete and blind trust then no power in this world can stop us from implementing this plan. It is very risky. So far I've come to know about him is that he is a calculative man and if anyhow he finds you suspicious, even if only a bit of suspicion is present in his mind for you, we are unable to run. If he does not trust you completely, he will get a clue of our plan and then you will be doomed so Zahra you have two weeks to have his trust. His complete trust and after two weeks you will be mine again."
