Only If She Knew✔️

chapter : 18

"Papa" Shehnaaz said getting up from sleep and looked at Sidharth with shocked face. She started getting nervous as she was sleeping with that man whom her father rejected. Sidharth too sat on bed shocked watching her nervous because of one shout. He placed his hand on her and said

"Let him wait", Sidharth said and pulled her on bed who stand up to go but Shehnaaz pushed his hand away and ran towards door

"Atleast change girl ", Sidharth said. Shehnaaz looked him in tension and then at her dress . Night suit is normal for her and her father as well because she used to wear it in her home many times. She started thinking about dress that is it fine or not unaware of his trick. Before she could understand his trick Sidharth pinned her between wall and him

"Yo..  you can't stop me to meet my father", Shehnaaz stammered looking down because of his closeness and his gaze. She thought he want to stop her to meet her father

"I will not Mrs. Shukla. Need just one promise. You will not leave me..I mean we will not fill divorce papers", Sidharth asked in faint voice. Shehnaaz closed her eyes hearing another shout from her father who is calling her name. She can't believe how can she always fall weak and think about her life with him everytime. She don't have any courage to reply as she know her father will force her to leave him

She herself don't want to leave him for second after understanding that even he was tricked in this misunderstanding. "Mrs Shukla" word sent shiver inside her body because of which she felt herself weak to reply

"You will respect our relation hana?", asked Sidharth to which Shehnaaz nodded

"I will not divorce you", Shehnaaz said assuring him by holding his hands. Sidharth smiled and kissed her hands taking it as a chance. Shehnaaz smiled and hugged him before rushing out to meet her father. Sidharth blushed when Shehnaaz left and followed her because he can't let her go like this when the person is Shehnaaz Father. He is happy that his morning started good as she initiated hug.

"Why you married her?", shouted Parminder at Sidharth who stand behind Shehnaaz. Sidharth pushed Shehnaaz away and stand in front of him to talk

"Like you don't know the reason. If you can trick me for years then even I can trick you", Sidharth said in hard voice with his hands inside his pocket showing his attitude

"See Shehnaaz he tricked you. Now believe me and come with me. You can't live with him. You will stay with us", said Parminder

"Uncle till now I heard whatever you requested but now it's enough. She is my wife now. She will live with me. You can't manipulate her again. You already did a lot ", Sidharth shouted fro top of his voice when he heard Parminder trying to provoke Shehnaaz again. He is scared what if Shehnaaz believed him than her again?

"Sidharthhh lower your tone he is my father", Shehnaaz said and stood between Sidharth and Parminder who was fuming in anger

"Yes how can I forget that as he is the reason that I was unable to meet you", Sidharth said and looked aside controlling himself and his anger. He don't want to create scene, neither he want to ruin his first day with Shehnaaz after marriage which seemed like it is already ruined.

"Now we are married right and we will meet daily then why this fight", Shehnaaz asked and turned towards Sidharth showing her back towards her father as right now she want Sidharth to understand her

"Yes because I have lost everything because of him. I envy others who enjoyed thier life but I worked hard for one woman . I hate myself for trusting your father. I hate myself for leaving you alone. I know even this time you will believe him. You will leave me again. You will hate me again", Sidharth said In faint voice as his voice cracked in middle because of his fear. Shehnaaz noticed fresh tears in his eyes which Sidharth was trying to hide .

"His drama", said Parminder

"Dadd... it is not drama. I can differentiate between drama and real feelings. Sidharth stop crying see I am with you please don't cry you are not looser ."Shehnaaz said first to her father and then to Sidharth who turned his face aside

"You want to go hana?", Sidharth asked in cold voice gaining confidence

"Shehnaaz he is faking his tears don't believe him. Let's go", Parminder said with fear that Sidharth will win Shehnaaz again

"He is not. I know", Shehnaaz shouted and sat beside Sidharth

"Baby...I believe you. I know you love me now Stand up. You can't be weak right. Sidharth Shukla was always strong hana.. then don't be weak", Shehnaaz whispered near his ears and rubbed his back to assure him . Sidharth nodded and stand up properly. Parminder wanted to hear what Shehnaaz said but as her voice was low he was unable to hear anything.

"Shehnaaz this decision is upto you. You can visit me whenever you want. I will wait for you ", Sidharth said without looking at Shehnaaz

"If you stayed here then don't you dare to enter our house again", Parminder said. Sidharth chuckled as he knew this was not needed, Shehnaaz will herself obey her father than him

"I'm coming with you dad", Shehnaaz replied in low voice and looked at Sidharth who chuckled hearing her reply

"I'm glad that you preferred your family over someone else", Parminder said, he started thinking that he won over Sidharth wheras Sidharth knew somewhere this was meant to happen

"Dad he is my husband. Even if he married me forcefully somewhere my heart wanted to marry him only. I already gave myself to him and I can't trust someone else. If he married me then it's good right that I married my ex boyfriend", Shehnaaz said eying Sidharth who didn't looked at her even for once

"Fine let's go", said Parminder

"I am coming but I want to talk something with him. ALONE", Shehnaaz said highlighting word alone by raising her voice for alone word gaining Sidharth's attention. Parminder nodded, Shehnaaz dragged Sidharth towards thier room and locked door from inside

"Hmm say and leave", Sidharth said in cold voice and looked aside to hide his anger and tears as he don't want her to go

"Sidharth understand everything from his point of view as well. He asked me Where the hell your love was in these years? When you left me with your unborn child.  Just because of your disappearance I was forced to kill my child. You forced me to hate you Sidharth . Now after years you want me to trust you and come back to you but for me it is not easy to forget all those bitter memories. ", Shehnaaz said and interwined thier fingers together. Sidharth looked at her asking if she hate him then why she is giving him hopes?

"Yet I am giving you chance from my heart because I believe there is a big misunderstanding", Shehnaaz said softly and joined their foreheads without removing

"Sidharth I will come here soon . Maybe tomorrow or day after tomorrow but please don't take tension and take care of mom", Shehnaaz said

"Don't worry about that", Sidharth replied

"Don't behave that rude Sidharth. I can't stay here today. I will talk with you on call and in office as well. Take it as normal day. I will come day after tomorrow as even I know who I am now", Shehnaaz said angrily watching his attitude which is not going

"It's your wish", Sidharth said. Shehnaaz sighed because she understood he will not understand her

"Nobody ever asked my wish Sidharth. I am puppet of my own family members", Shehnaaz said and turned to go when Sidharth pulled her in hug

"Will come soon to stay with you forever", Shehnaaz said

"Take stand for yourself Shehnaaz. Then see how things will start changing", he said to which Shehnaaz nodded and smiled looking at him. She now want her to try searching truth as well. If not Sidharth and her father then who created misunderstanding between them? What if her father was real culprit?
