Having my makeup removed, I get up to remove the gown. My hands reach to pull the zipper down and in the middle, when my off-shoulder gown begins to peel down, the door opens, revealing Zahir.

What the—

“You still didn't—” He begins to speak with a pink face when I utter, “How did you get inside? I remember locking the door!” I grip the fabric tight on my chest. One more second would have passed, and he could have caught the stupid lingerie I am wearing inside.

He rolls his eyes. “It's my room, don't forget, Hoor.” My face grows hotter when I hear my name roll out from his tongue, and a frown catches my face when a smirk travels on his lips and he says, “And the doorknob has a fingerprint sensor. I'm the owner, wifey.”

Wifey?!

This tone seems naughty like he is implying something else. And wifey? Please, I am not used to it. He could have waited for it but he thought of giving my heart an attack when I was going to strip down.

I can't help but roll my eyes. “Now, mind

    — H O O R — When the maids arrived, informing us that dinner was ready, I finally palmed my stomach and sighed in bliss because I was hungry. After the morning I just got to eat. Although Rayma did offer me food in the middle of work, at that time I denied it because I was busy. Do not consider me ungrateful here. I respect food, but due to my old habit, sometimes I do not ask for a moment's rest in between work. And seeing the food served right in front of me, I got emotional, to be honest. I wanted to attack the plate but I do not have such a habit. I was better with the manners taught by my father. We prayed and then started eating. Zahir was sitting beside me, doing something on his mobile. A tight and bitter frown was on his handsome face. His jaw was twitched and his eyebrow was arched. The end of it was adorned by a mole which I noticed just now while my spoon was filled with food. Rayma seemed to notice it as she cleared her throat, gaining my attention. When I looked at

    — Z A H I R —The room. I can't help but groan when I look at the decorated room in front of me. Not my Bhabhi's fault that she decorated, thinking Hoor and I will spend a night together, getting devoured. The thought makes me groan once again.I ruffle my hair and sit on the right side of the bed. I grab my laptop and Bluetooth bud. For one last time, I look around the romantically decorated room and release a sigh before starting my dear work. I do not want to imagine how Hoor would react after seeing this. If she dares to think I did this all, I swear I won't stop myself from doing something to her. We have been fighting all day long yet annoyed with each other. Guess what, no matter how much we quarreled, our irritability did not decrease. Not even a bit. I am not sure about her because she has insulted me enough at the dining table but about me, I think I will need another argument to calm myself down. Do not blame me now when Hoor has made me addicted to this all! Before Ho

    — H O O R —“Why? Are you afraid of being tempted by me and end up doing something unexpected?” He says naughtily. His eyebrows wiggle playfully as a smirk finds its way to his full lips. I can't help but feel the heat creeping onto my cheeks. They feel hot all of a sudden as the idea itself seems tempting but why am I thinking like this for my contracted husband? No, Hoor, leave that idea. Do not।get into his seduction, you will regret it so bad. Yeah, I know. But just look at his audacity right now! After annoying me for at least half an hour, he says I can take advantage of his sleepy state. Samajhta kya hai yeh insaan khud ko?(What does this man think of himself?)But I know how to win out of this as I am such an expert here! “What? Don't think I'm gonna rape you while you're sleeping like a log!” That smirk vanished from his face as soon as he heard my answer. His lips pressed into a thin line and he glared at me, still looking so attractive and fine. Now it was my lips tu

    — Z A H I R —Before marriage, I used to wake up in the morning with the killing sound of the alarm. I considered it the most annoying sound ever in the world. Getting irritated, I even threw the alarm many times and when I woke up, I saw that its parts were lying separately on the floor. I never paid much attention to it. Getting alarm clocks was not a difficult thing for me. Although my father reprimanded me many times because of my anger, I did not improve. I have lost count of how many alarm clocks I have wound up with. Even on the day of my marriage, I broke an alarm clock in the morning, although there was no alarm to wake me up on the first morning after marriage. It was something else. Something more pleasant and light. Like a clunk of metals. I was not sure what it was but it was not my alarm clock, I was hundred percent sure about it. My arm was resting on my forehead as I was sleeping peacefully, away from the world's every nerve-wracking problem. I have forgotten ever

    — H O O R —I walk into the kitchen, getting the maid's attention as they bow to me lightly. They do it whenever they look at me, and I am growing annoyed by it. Seriously! But I do not complain and give them a small nod before I make my way to the large marble slab and put the bowl there. I peek over my shoulder and spot the one who has followed me to the kitchen. Yeah, my dear husband is behind me, looking around clueless. He is rubbing the back of his neck as he makes his way inside, whistling a soft melody. After a couple of minutes when he is done exploring the kitchen, his eyes land on me and he stops whistling. “What have you come to see? That I'm mixing poison in your food?” I ask, keeping my voice low as I do not want others to hear our little argument that is about to take place. I am not sure but I am surely angry regarding what happened this morning. Right after waking up in the morning, he decided to bother me. Nothing else, only I came to his mind. I know he made me

    — Z A H I R —I come out of the closet while arranging the collar of my shirt. I then arrange the lapel, walking towards the vanity as I see my wife standing right in front of it, applying pink lipstick. The color is light, matching her skin tone. She applied strokes of it smoothly over her plump bottom lip while I traced the movement of them through my needy eyes. I did not even realize when I ended up staring at her though I came to get my hair done. Well, it can wait, right? I slow my pace to vanity, still lost in my wife's heavenly beauty. She is wearing just a silk robe over I do not know what. But through the deep cut in her robe, I can see the white-colored sweetheart neckline of a blouse. Oh, she is wearing a white saree? As the thought rakes my mind, I raise my eyes to search for her dress anywhere. On either side, as I run my eyes around, I notice a white net saree on a hanger on one of the walls. It has sequins inlaid and the border seems heavy. Sometimes I wonder how

    — H O O R —As soon as I descended four stairs, I noticed how many people were waiting for us. I never expected that. For a girl who came from a small household like me, a maximum of ten people in the function was called ‘many’, but at the moment I was seeing more than ten people. Around fifty, I guess? They were all comfortable in the hugeness of the house, still, the room was left large. Yes, I know that Zahir's house is no less than any palace and only such elegant and rich people come to such a palace. Why did I expect less?They look at us and I notice their eyes holding an admiring glint as soon as they catch us standing on the stairs. I can't help but notice how elegantly they have dressed up. I have never seen such bright people, to be honest. Does not matter if their teeth shine, they know their clothes and footwear should shine even if others do not even look at them. But that's not what makes me nervous. It is something else. Zahir keeps his hand on my waist and it car

    — Z A H I R —She bit my finger, can you believe that? I had only avoided her question for a while. I mean, at least I did not refuse to answer her. Still, my wife bit off my finger. I was surprised by her audacity. She did not care if everyone was just looking at us. Well, thankfully no one noticed more carefully. Even though it was dark around us, the flash of the cameras was giving me enough light to cut the cake and feed my bunny wife. Yes, bunny wife. She, who chewed my finger, looks so cute in white clothes that I just want to fill her in my arms, hug her tightly, and keep kissing her cheeks and bite them if I want, indeed deserves the new nickname I have discovered for her. Wild cat suits too. She is always ready to pounce on me. However, for the moment, I am going to tease her with this new nickname.Not right now, by the way. I introduced her to Darsh and his wife. I could never forget to invite him and his wife. Hoor and Darsh's wife got along well and now both of them

    — Z A H I R —. . .It's been days since Hoor and I returned home after attending our relative's wedding. It was awesome, by her side, and on the other hand, I was nearly bored. Only nights were the most beautiful to me because we prayed together and spent some time together. I could not even imagine using the guest's room bed for making love with my wife so I restrained myself. However, it turned out to be a little harder when she kept throwing glances at me and getting ready for the functions. I had no other way than to look at her and praise her. I wanted to do more. After we returned, the first thing I did after taking a shower was to grab her in my arms and hug her like my life depended on it. She giggled, asking me about what changed in ms all of a sudden but I had nothing to answer her. I only breathed at that moment, loving her warmth and the softness of her chest against my head. That's my haven. That night we made love again and the more I explored her, the more needy

    — Z A H I R —. . .I rejected it and I regret it now. It has been days since she confessed her feelings to me and I, like a bastard, rejected those feelings. Like every time, I only thought of responsibilities and all, not wishing to give our relationship a chance but after she started avoiding me, I had no other way than to realize my mistake. Hoor does not know, or maybe she is well aware of it that she even takes advantage of it that her ignorance brings me to my knees before her. I have felt it. Hoor makes me feel like I have admitted it to myself. Hoor has become a piece of mine, without whom, I am not whole. I am incomplete without her. I feel restless when she is away from me. When her eyes are not on me, I crave even one look at her. I know I can't live without her and she made me see it in those days. I thought maybe it was because we were getting used to each other so I decided to keep myself away from her. However, my own decision made me feel restless in my heart.

    — H O O R —. . .He picks up the call while I sit, anticipating what is going to happen next. I fear Zahir's answer to Mr Hunt. I know he is a nice man but Zahir, in anger, says harsh things. I do not want him to start a fight with Mr Hunt. He puts the call on speaker and looks at me. His eyes linger over my face and solely catch my eyes. I swallow when I hear Mr Hunt's voice. “Hoor?” He asks, and I know I have to keep my mouth shut. “Hoor is with me. And stop calling her, okay?” Okay... It was not as gruff as I expected. I literally expected him to grab Mr Hunt's collar right pushing his hand into the screen of the phone and venting out all the frustration of the past night but he controlled it. Phew!“Uh...”“Yeah,” he breathes and disconnects the lines, tossing away my phone. My eyes widen. “Zahir, it's my phone! Have mercy on it!” I utter, trying to reach for my phone when he grabs my wrist and pulls me to him. I gasp, swallowing as I look at his face. I am glad the sheet

    — H O O R —. . .“What's your problem, huh? Why are you behaving like a beast?” I utter, fuming with anger after whatever has happened. He has done this all! His jaw clenches but he does not give me a single look. I see his grip becoming lethal around the steering wheel as he drives the car smoothly. “Ask yourself! What's your problem, Hoor?” He asks instead, giving me a sharp glance over his shoulder. I purse my lips, trying not to say any bad words that will make me regret it later. “I'm totally fine. It's you alone who created a drama there. I don't understand why are you behaving like that!” I do not care if I am making it even more serious. I need answers. The atmosphere inside the car seems to change as it drops. He is trying hard to control his anger but I know he is dangerous when angry. However, I am not afraid to see his limits. Have seen his sides before and no doubt he is going to be like that again; harsh and brutal with words. “Behaving like what? A beast?” He tau

    — H O O R —. . .Finding Mr Hunt at the party gave me some kind of relief. As Zahir too knows him, we got interacted and there I got to meet the girl with him. He introduced me to her and she felt pleasant. His choice is very good. However, on the other side, I could see Zahir glaring at us non-stop. It irked me. Now what does he want? I ignored that look. Mr Hunt too noticed how Zahir was keeping a poker face and answering him gruffly every time. When he was called suddenly by some of his partners, it was only Mr Hunt and me left alone. The woman he took with him also left to use the washroom. “Why is he behaving like that?” He asks me in a mutter, confused as he looks at me. My eyes remain on Zahir who is busy holding a conversation with an official man. There are two more with him, keeping him occupied. I stare at him silently, not answering Mr. Hunt for a moment being. I do not feel like doing it or maybe I am too lost admiring my husband among them. He is handsome, after

    — H O O R —. . .“May I come in, ma'am?” I know what he is taking with him, and it is only for me to handle. I sigh as I look up from the screen that troubles my eyes. My gaze lands upon a man standing at the door and I am not sure how many times I have seen him today with towers of files in his arms. Only for me!“Of course,” I have to pass him a fake smile.He comes in and sets the tower beside other files. Wow. Just look at my room. How amazing it looks filled with files and files alone. And whose hand is all in this? Surely, my husband's! Because he does not want me to meet Mr Hunt anymore and he can't even confront me and order me around, so he is using such methods to keep me here. Not only that but he is keeping me with himself in meetings. All the meetings which were to be held in the next month and whatever was arranged by me, he thought of completing them all in this month itself. He made me make some changes in the schedule and everywhere he carried me. All this just

    — H O O R —. . .“So tell me...” He begins nervously, running a hand through his hair as he looks at me. I wait for him. Maybe he is going to take eternity. Who knows? He is always like that around me; shy and all. Even now he is unable to look me in the eyes. I too do not have any obsession with it. To me, Zahir's eyes are everything. Keeping the straw in my mouth as I enjoy my Faluda ice cream, I steal a glance at his already-flushed face. Now what does he see? I roll my eyes back to the setting sun and realize that I have spent more time with him. I do not worry about my work. I know I will complete the pending tasks but I needed to refresh my mind which he helped me having. He is an amazing friend, to be honest. After how Zahir spoiled my mood with that interrogation, he called me and I came out to meet him. He took me to places around and bought me ice cream. Walk with him was nice as he kept cracking silly jokes. I was even laughing. Yeah, I like such stupid jokes. He wa

    — H O O R —. . .Three days have passed. Life is going on as before. The only difference is that whatever happened between Zahir and me seems like a dream. Everything disappeared as soon as I opened my eyes.Work and prayer help me to forget all this every moment, but I cannot use them every moment to escape from the past. Because of whatever happened that night, I still feel as if there are wounds in my heart that have not healed yet. But I know that time will change everything and all wounds will heal. God will do it. Right now I am just waiting for these days to pass. Now that I know that our relationship is not going to improve, I do not want to stay here any longer.Another time my phone rings. It is Mr Hunt. I have been ignoring his calls since this morning but he does not seem to give up. I am not in the mood, simple. I do not want to talk to him but I know I have to. I will be responsible for many things then. Clenching my jaw, I pick up the call and I remove my gaze from

    — H O O R —. . .“Are you out of your mind, Hoor?” He says, breaking all my expectations just in a second. I stare at him dumbfounded, my heart sinking deeper. My eyes do not flutter as they are set on him but he has my hands clammy in anticipation. I muster up the courage to ask, “Wh-What do you mean, Zahir?” My tone is confused. Still. I am still expecting him to give me an explanation so it can relieve the burn in my chest. “It's simple, Hoor!” He utters, getting up as he releases a deep sigh. His arm raises and he runs a hand through his hair. Once again as he shows he is frustrated. I narrow my eyes at him, staring at his face as he steps away, continuing, “It's simple that I don't wanna be in a relationship. And haven't I told you that already?” The next he turns around, eyes boring into mine. They hold frustration and anger, resembling a darker and deeper shade of ocean. His jaw clenches as he adds, “I made it clear already!”He did but I started having feelings for him.
