Don't touch me"she yelled, Mubarak couldn't comprehend what the hell is happening, his heart breaking at the unexpected scenario happening before his eyes.

leave me alone "she yelled again on top of her voice.

His head dropped and he use his palm to rub the back of his head, he doesn't like seeing her like this.

You want me to leave right "he asked softly

she nodded staring at him, he sees nothing but sadness in her eyes.

Then i will leave now" he said softly but please..he tries holding her hand.

Let go of me "she yelled taking her hand from him.

~~~~~~~~~

It's been three days since mubina was brought into the mansion and three days since Mubarak laid his eyes on her, she locked herself up and won't even answer her phone, the only way he gets to know she is in there alive is whenever he eavesdrop and listen to either her sobs or the running water from the toilet, he has beseeched thousand of times to get into the room, but she never opens it. He had wanted to leave her alone for sometime, but at least wants to see her face. Every morning and before going to bed he will stand at the door without letting her know he is standing there, hoping she will for once open up but she never does, just like yesterday and a day before it, Mubarak stood at the door knocking, he called her name but this time instead of the normal silence he usually recieve, he heard indistinctly sounds coming from the room, he tried opening the door but it's locked, he knocked and almost gave up until he heard the key jangling, he was surprised when one of the house maids opened the door, but more surprised when he sight mubina on the bed wincing in pain.

He cursed under his breath as he hurriedly walk to the bed, muby...baby are you ok ?he asked worriedly

She gave him a heated look, she felt a different pain on her chest when he called her"muby", only Khalil calls her muby, she made a mental note of that, immediately when she gets better she would make sure he doesn't dare call her that again"

What's wrong with her ? He direct his question to the maid instead.

She is not telling me anything but i think she is sick " she answered lowering her gaze

And how did you get in here? he asked dailing the doctor's number, I mean did she open the door for you? he hate how his voice sounded, obviously he is jealous about the fact that she never lets him in but the maid ..

No she refused to, so i used the key from the store room, the maid answered "how did I forget all this while that there is a spare key in the store room "he mentally scolded himself, he thanked the maid and dismiss her.

How long have you being sick muby? he asked, carefully placing his hand on her forehead to to feel her temperature, he was use to her ignoring him so he didn't feel bad about it, he walked to the toilet instead and got a Luke warm water with a towel, she flinched when he placed the damp towel on her forehead.

I feel cold "was all she could utter shivering

Am sorry"he replied softly, he wish he could get into that duvet and wrap himself around her but he knows better than that.

A knock came from the door, and the doctor walk in after saying his salam and asking for permission, he immediately gave her a thorough check up with his equipments and wrote down some medicines for her.

Will she be fine ? mubarak asked the doctor fixing his gaze on Mubina's small figure.

Well I have written the required medicines and if she follow the dosage inshallah she will be fine. Even her temperature would be considerably lower so there is no need to worry "the doctor assured him giving him a slight tap.

Ok thank you very much doctor, let me see you out" Mubarak said gesturing at the door. They both hop into their separate cars, he got the medicines from a nearby store.

He walk to the kitchen afterwards, and grabbed a plate, dishing out some food for the both of them, he doesn't even know if she has been eating because he haven't seen her since after the day she sent him out of his room,"their room "

Sir, what are you doing ? please let me, a woman that is old enough to be his mother said trying to take the serving spoon from him, she didn't expect to see him in the kitchen, he requested for another maid yesterday and specifically wanted an older woman, he feels mubina need a mother figure around her, and the old woman's presence will help comfort her in some kind of way.

Sannu mama"he greeted her instead with a smile, don't worry please i will do it"he added

She gave up and left the kitchen for him after so much pleading, he smile as he remember how hajiya will always say love grows stronger when you eat and sit together. He once again grin at the thought opening the fridge after making sure he grab everything he wanted from the fridge, he placed everything on the tire tray, and carefully drag it to the room.

He find himself a space close to her, placing the tray on the side bed.

You should eat something "he said, she stare at the food and then him, he couldn't tell what he saw in her eyes when their eyes locked but they held a lot of emotions and he knows he would be damned if he doesn't find out what they are.

Please mubina, he called her full name softly, look baby i know you are missing home and i am not holding that against you and maybe because we haven't known each other for long you feel uneasy here, i know it was all my fault after all it was me that took you away from your family and i am gonna wait for how ever long it will take for you to get comfortable with me and everything here, but mind you once you get comfortable here you won't be able to avoid me" he said with a smile, but for now i need you to please stop punishing yourself and please take your medicine..i know this whole marriage thing was my idea and maybe you are not even ready for it but i promise you, i did all i did because I love you and I have never felt something like this for anyone else, so please let's try and make this work.." he said handing her the medicine and a cup of water, she took it with a shaky hand and swallow with a gulp

He feed her the food all along feeling gladsome as she let him feed her without making a fuss about it. You should get some rest, he said after making sure she is sated. She gently lay back and let him pull the covers to her chin, his lips slightly ajar as he stare with awe at her beauty. The sleep together with the medicine  dominated mubina and in less than few minutes she is already deep into sleep, Mubarak couldn't help but stare at her, she sleeps peacefully, he just hope she gets better soon, and hopefully when she does, they could start over.
