Asad's POV
TW: SOME MENTION OF RAPE
Amir glared at me and I knew what he was trying to say. Right now probably was not the best time, but I needed to be there for Rayyana she wasn't letting me touch her when right now I'm craving her touch. I'm craving to see that she's here with me and hasn't been touched by someone other then me.
"Sabha and I have never kissed, there is nothing going on between us." Sabha nodded immediately "Then where did the photo come from?" Amir said leaning back. Amir was really good at verbal fighting since he's a business man so I knew that this whole ordeal is going to be a hassle.
"I don't know where it came from." I turned to Rayyana "You know I don't have time for this, my time is occupied with my matches, meetings, and you." Sabha looked at Amir "And my time is occupied with Rayyana, housework, and you Amir." Amir and Rayyana sat there talking to themselves in there mind.
"If you don't trust us it's fine, I will find proof that me and Sabha have no feelings for each other. I will prove to you Amir that I would never betray you." I hold Rayyana's hand and I make her look at me. She had tears in her eyes that I wiped away.
"And you Meri Jaan, I want to prove to you that I love you." She bit her lip (God I want to bite them myself) and nodded, she pulled away and settled them in her lap. "Your birthday is in a week Asad, prove it to me by then."
Sabha looked at me with panic in her eyes. I smiled at her and nodded "I promise." Amir spoke up "Yes Asad, you better prove to me that I can still trust you." Even though Amir said it in a cool facade I knew that he was secretly hoping that none of this was true.
We are best buddies, and losing him is the last thing I need.
Amir got up and motioned for Sabha to follow her. Sabha tried to hug Rayyana but she just said goodbye to them and went to our room. Sabha bit her lip and looked to the ground as she silently put on her shoes.
She mumbled a goodbye and left with Amir.
I closed the door and wondered one thing;
Who could have done this?
Rayyana's POV
I sat glumly on the chair that me and Asad had put on our balcony. I was feeling miserable and scared and I kind of didn't want to sleep alone, but I didn't want a cheater beside me as I slept.
I took a sip of my coffee and got up to put it away in the sink, when I opened our bedroom door I heard Asad's angry voice which made me stop.
"What do you mean my reputation is on the line? For what? saving my wife from almost being raped??"
I didn't know if Asad was doing this on purpose, or if he genuinely wanted to hide that little bit of information from me. But even if he was trying, he did horrible at it.
I pulled up the news app on my phone and gasped once I saw what was on the cover of the newspaper.
Cricket star Asad Querashi has been seen beating up a man for almost raping his wife Rayyana Arshad.
There have been reports of her being seen engaging in conversation with the man first, and people are saying that she is cheating on Asad.
"Obviously she would consider cheating, she's married to a rich man and clearly their relationship has no spark in it." One of Asad's co-workers explained.
This made no sense, are they really accusing me of almost being raped?! Ya ALLAH what has this world come to?
Asad continued shouting into the phone until suddenly he stopped. I had stopped breathing as well as I scrolled through the comments that were anything but nice.
I gently put my phone down and left the room, Asad was writing something on his laptop furiously but stopped once he saw me. "Rayyana?" I grabbed a glass of water and drank it.
Was the room hot or was it just me? Asad gently grabbed my elbow making me face him "Rayyana ignore them." He took the cup of water for me and put it down on the counter beside me.
He made me look at him and that was when I had let myself go. I cried harder then I had ever cried before, Asad panicked and brought me into a hug just letting me cry in his arms.
"Why me Asad... why me?"
First he cheated on me, and now this. I sniffled and remembered the baby and willed myself to calm down. If I lose this child I'm done, there is nothing more precious to me then this child.
Nothing more.
Sabha's POV
I sighed as Rayyana didn't pick up the phone again.
I went back to the 3-way call me, Rabia, and Soojin were on. "You think she's okay?" Rabia asked nervously staring at my face. I shrugged not really knowing what to say, was this what it felt like to be rich?
It was totally unfair to her and Asad. People think that just because your rich means you can say, or feel anything. For example the marriage, just because your rich means that you marry someone for fun?
These people clearly don't know how sacred marriage is.
I sighed and rubbed my forehead, whatever this situation was needed to stop right away. Amir still wasn't talking to me because of that stupid photo that showed up out of nowhere.
And to top it all off, Asad's birthday was in a week. Was Rayyana going to tell him about the baby?
I had to fix this.
"Guys, I have to go talk later okay?" Rabia and Soojin agreed to stay on the line and talk, I hung up on them and put down my phone.
Who would want something bad to happen to us?
There were 3 possible suspects; Maha, her mom or...
Javaria.
