chapter 20

Sidharth came into the room and saw shehnaax making the bed he went towards the bed took his pillow and quilt leave the room silently without sparing her a glance as if shehnaaz's presence would burn him into ashes

Shehnaaz was desperately waiting till the time he showed up today to apologize for the last stunt she pulled, but she couldn't get chance

"Suniye" she managed to utter, her voice came as a whisper but was loud enough to catch his ears

He turned around only to glimpse at her fidgeting form he raised his eyebrow at her, she got his indication and proceeded with the speech 

"Ahm hm..... I..mm I " she hesitantly fumbled with words

"can you make it fast I don't have the whole day to listen to your I mmm I," sidharth asserted coldly

"Hm are hmm "

"Take your time then let me know what is it" sidharth mocked while turning towards the gate

"Sorry, won't you sleep here," she implored nervously

"You might not feel safe around me," sidharth said coldly while clenching his hand into a fist as her prior statement hit his ear

"You tried to molest me, I don't feel safe in your presence"

He closed his eyes and turned his back trying to not reveal how her accusation affect him and pain him

"I am... " she tried to apologize for hurting and denouncing him but he left without paying attention to her apology

Shehnaaz could not bear his ignorance and oblivion towards her she followed him to the balcony

"Sidharth, please, I am sorry " Shahnaz sobbed in helplessness

Sidharth calmed his heart skipped a beat, eyes closed the first time he heard his name from her mouth

He never imagined his name could sound like music to his ears

"Sidharth, please" sidharth interrupted in between

"It's okay, you don't need to, you have all rights to stop when feel uneasy and unsafe," he said roughly moving towards the recliner

"It's cold here, please come inside," said shehnaax hesitantly looking down

"You won't be able to tolerate the smell of alcohol, and I lose my control after drinking" sidharth boldly declared

Her eyes widen at his curt statement she managed to mumble

"Why do you drink, it's prohibited in our religion"

Sidharth chucked at her sarcastically

"Involving with some other men than your husband is allowed in your religion, letting him hold you are permitted? " he accused her rudely

She came in front of him and retorted looking into his eyes deeply

"I am not involved with anyone, I dont feel for anyone but my husb.." She paused and turned her head tears rolled down her innocent orbes

"But whom shehnaaz" he urged her to confess what she feels of him 

"Nothing" she replied glancing at his eyes before she left thinking he will never listen to her little did she know that he has already left drinking two months ago

Her steps halted and she turned to ask

"Where were you these two months? I know you were furious over me but why did you punish other family members?"

Before he could explain shehnaaz phone chimed displaying the name he never wanted to glimpse on her phone and that too this late

His expression hardened his veins popped out of his neck, seeing his reaction shehnaaz hurridly cut the call, but to her bad luck the phone ringed again making sidharth red in anger

She was about to decline the call again when he spoke

"Why don't you receive the call someone is maybe dying to talk to you, well I like the progress between you two, in a short span you two came much closer " sidharth taunted her roughly

Her eyes welled up at his harsh remarks before she could defend or explain anything

"Leave I need to rest" sidharth ordered sternly

Sidharth's pov

Ahhh!! These two months have taught me very much my life has turned upside down yet it is the same as before losing someone this close to you was never easy

I did not yet come out of my brother's demise sadness and now my...

He closed his wet eyes in an attempt to suppress his overwhelming pain and suffering, he can't let them show his vulnerable side

"Sorry I tried everything possible in my hand, but I couldn't save you," he whispered looking at the picture on his phone

with the pain and suffering, he let sleep consume him

"Bhai I am going on a trip," Hayat while munching toast

"Is this how you ask for permission Hayat " her mother scolded her

"Mom, where was he in these two months, and you were only weeping over his sudden disappearance, you completely disregard my presence also," Hayat said bitterly

"He left and you turn blind in hate of bhabi" Hayat chuckled painfully while eying sidharth and her mother

"Hayat!! Behave " her mother said sternly while sidharth stayed cold and steady

Sidharth left after having his breakfast paying the least attention to his surrounding

Shehnaaz who witnessed everything from her eyes when after sidharth

"Suniye, you missed your watch in the room" shehnaaz whispered while looking down at the watch

Without making a fuss over this he took the watch from her hand he moved towards the car

At night he came late when he was parking the car he saw shehnaaz coming from zain's house

He lost his composure and sanity, anger, and jealousy hit his nerves he lost all his control over hi sanity and turned into a beast, who felt nothing but betrayed
