Zaheer's POV,

My long time friends Abhi and Diana invited Sania and me for lunch at thier place. So as I couldn't even attend thier wedding which was 2 months before mine, we went bearing gifts. 

We are all school time pals and Abhi and Diana have been childhood sweethearts. As they both belonged to different religions, it took them quite a while to get thier parents approval, but at the end as they say 'Love conquers all'. 

Its always funny to see them on the dinning table as Abhishek is a pure vegetarian and Diana a pure non-vegetarian. So we had both kinds of dishes in front of us. Ofcourse Diana had halal meat for us. 

As we sat in the living room after lunch, Sania and I, we just sat casually next to eachother but Diana came and sat on Abhi's lap on our adjecent sofa. It was normal for me to see them like that but I'll never forget Sania's face at that time....

Her eyes were popping out and

    Sania's POV,"Aaaaaaaaaaaa........."MY EARS ARE DEAD.... because of Aditi's loud scream. Ya Allah!"OMG.... You guys finally did it..... I'm soo happy" she was jumping up and down.Aditi isn't those types to let go of a topic that easily till she's satisfied with the answer. The first thing that she asked me as soon as I got to her place was, "please tell me you guys did IT. You guys did it right?"Her mother was right behind us. I was soo embarrassed. I yanked her arm inside the room and scoulded her. Like that was any good. She noticed my blush and by putting 1 and 1 together figured it out that the answer was Yes.You won't believe what she did after that. She went running throughout her house yelling, "My Sania has grown up. She did IT...she did it"Many of her relatives from her village are here and they all heard it. As you know.... SHE'S

  • Strings of Fate   17: The seduction game

    Sania's POV,Sometimes I feel like I can just kill Zaheer. He gets his kicks by teasing me at the wrong place and at the wrong time. Like when I'm in the kitchen working with Mom he would just casually walk in and hug me from behind when Mom isn't looking, nibble on my ear lobe which makes me gasp and when Mom would look behind he would immediately back of acting as if nothing happened and I would be there all red and embarrassed.Idiot, what will Mom think if she sees us? But does Mr Fancy Pants care? Nope. During dinner if I sat beside him his hand would be more on my lap then on the food. My heart jumps to my throat as Mom and Madiha sit right in front of us. It makes me all tingly and nervous.If I try to wake up before him in the morning he would pull me back and pinning me down with his body not letting me move for 10-20 mins.And what is it with men and sex? It's like all they could think about is just

    Zaheer's POV,From a few days I can see that my cheerful Sania is just lost somewhere. She doesn't laugh or fight with me, doesn't even smile. First I thought it must be me who did something but then I realised, she's acting like that with everyone.She won't even face me when I hold her while sleeping. I'm really worried now. I thought of taking her somewhere like on a date for a whole day but she keeps ignoring it. I always ask her what's wrong and she just says, "it's nothing." It hurts me to see her like that.Last night she just laid on the bed staring at the ceiling blankly. I let her be for a while till I worked on my laptop sitting beside her.As I was done, I looked at my beautiful wife and found her still staring up blankly. My heart clenched. I kept my laptop aside and leaning beside her carased her face. To my surprise I found her cheeks wet."What's

    Sania's POV, "The thing is that.... I-I'm sorry that I didn't inform you or anyone about this before." I began. I didn't knew how to say this."Inform what?" She asked curiously."That- I-" I took a deep breath closing my eyes. "I- I can never give you your grandchildren. I- I'm infertile.""What!"Her voice made me jump a little and tears clouded my eyes. I looked at her and she was soo in shock."You can never have children and you and your family knew this all along?"She yelled at me."Not my family. They don't know anything about this. Only I knew. Please don't blame my parents Mom." I said as gently as I could. The most important thing for any parents is to see thier grandchildren after thier children get married and informing that I cannot give them any will shock anyone. I don't blame her.She sat down on the bed with her head in h

    Sania's POV,It's already past 2am but Zaheer still isn't back. More than 7 hours have past. I'm scared and worried. We called him but his phone is switched off. Even Mom is restless. I asked her to go sleep but she wouldn't listen. No one even ate dinner. We are hidding all this from Madiha as we don't want her to worry. She's already sleeping. When she asked for Zaheer we lied that he'd be late because he's got some work.Mom is sitting in the living room and I'm pacing near the door. 'Ya Allah please take care of him.' The pain in his eyes was soo clear. I broke his heart, I know, but what else am I suppose to do? I don't have no choice. I can't leave him alone either. I need to make sure that when I'm gone, someone will be with him. Be his companion for the rest of his life.I wipe my tears and run outside as I hear his car. 'Alhumdullilah. He's back'."Zaheer." I ran into his arms holding him tight but he didn

    Sania's POV,I stood there motionless as I heard those words from him. 'Divorce? I never even thought about it'."Zaheer beta, please don't say such a thing. Divorce is such an awful course. Even Allah doesn't like divorce." I heard my Mumma say. I remembered her words from a long time ago. She said that, when a divorce happens, even the sky and the earth trembles. I could feel my world trembling by now."Your daughter is forcing me to take this decision Mumma." He said and walked past me but I grabbed his hand. He didn't turn to me."What?" He snapped."I don't want divorce." I said.He turned to me now. "Then stop this 2nd marriage nonsense.""I CAN'T" I yelled. I had enough now. I'm not asking him to commit a murder, I'm just asking him to bring in another wife. Wouldn't any man be thrilled to get permission from his own wife for being with another woman?
