His Delicate Queen

##// cheap //##

"Why can't I. Do you think I will do something to her?? Because I am her stepmother?? Chee chee sidharth, so cheap. You think so low of me. Like how can you even say that. ?? I... I just want to see her. I won't harm her... If if you want, I won't even touch her.... Promise. i ---" She wanted to say more but he cut her off.

"You can't meet her because she is no more!!! " He said with his heart in his mouth. He avoids this. Freaking avoid saying his daughter as dead. He hates that. His eyes were tearing up. But he held strong.he rubbed his face vigorously. Everything seemed like crashing down. He felt like he was living those memories all over again. It had been almost one and half year but it still felt like yesterday. He took a deep breath. Trying to control his overflowing emotions.

He looked at her who was looking at him with some indecipherable emotions in her eyes. There was not an ounce of sympathy but something so different. Something that held the power to calm him down. Her hand came forward, holding his and rubbing it softly with her another one. Her own eyes were glistening with unshed tears. He rolled his tongue over his lips, out of nervousness. He took out his hand from her clasp. And looked at her with those misty vulnerable eyes. She was not in right state to understand what was wrong. She was not really in her senses.

"Sleep shehnaaz...." He said making her lay down. It all turned out so heavy for him. He was about to leave the room when she called out for him.

"Kya hua kuch chahiye..." He asked. His voice was hoarse. He gulped before saying those words.

"Zoya ki fikr mat karo. Woh upar hai allah ke paas. Sabse acchi jagah mein. Aur saba bhabijaan bhi hai udhar. Woh uska khyaal rakhlegi. Woh khush hai. Aap bhi khush rho." She said with a smile adorning her serene face. He smiled softly before nodding his head at her and left the room. He didn't knew that her mere words will provide him that relief. He walked out of the party after informing feroz about his leave. He also told shagupta about shehnaaz's situation and asked her to look after her hangover tommorow. After bidding bye to niko and other few friends of him he left the party. His mind was messed up. First thing he'll do after going to palace was to drink. Because he desperately needed one. That was probably the only escape.

He was in the parking lot waiting for his driver to take out his car. Thats when sidharth's phone rung. It was faizal. Sidharth picked up call and held his phone to his ears.

"Bhai did you got out from the Ibrahim palace ??" Faizal ask impatiently. His voice held desperation and a tint of fear. Making sidharth be more attentive on the call.

"Nahi.... Driver is just getting the car out. What happened, do you need me there. Mein aarha hu" Sidharth replied seriously.

"Nahi nahi... please idhar mat aa. Listen bhai. Yaha pe mujhe kuch theek nahi lagrha tha subah se. The new maids joined today were having weapons with them. There was a stamp of rival company on those weapons. I don't know who is this by but this can cause you harm so I suggest you to stay at Ibrahim palace itself for at least two three days till I get to know who is behind this and  investigate the one who tried to harm you." Faizal Said making him gasp.

"What are you mad how is this possible we have the security. Didn't you check the new ones before giving them job? Are you fine. Is everyone at the palace fine?? I'm coming there I can't leave everyone there with risk" sidharth said running his hands through his hair.

"Nahi nahi bhai...Listen first I have shifted them all to another palace and if you will come here they will definitely plan something more dangerous. I want you to stay there the rival company  which the weapons had mark of, also has differences with Ibrahims so I think they may plan to attack their as well. I want you to stay there and look after it because I can't possibly go to Ibrahim palace and ensure security, because the reasons are very obvious. bhabijaan is also there and she may be targeted because everyone knows that she is your wife and how much you love her so I want you to stay there... please bhai listen to me it's necessary please." Faizal said trying to make him understand.
