Always & Forever (Editing) DHOOMBROS

Chapter 4

"TOH THEEK HAI", he screamed his lungs out. "Aaj decide kar hi lete hai na! Aar ya paar Anee! Main is tarah nahi jee sakta! You have to decide between your past or your present. I can't live with my one leg hanging in the past and the other hanging in the present! I JUST CAN'T! Tumhey decide karna hoga! Abhi!", he yelled out as loud as he could. "Bolo Anee, kya faisla hai tumhara?"

Hussain's POV:

She took a step closer to me. Here eyes burning red, and tears flowing out like a river.

"Yeh kehne se pehle, tumne ek baar bhi socha nahi? Bas keh diya?"

Right then I realized what I had just said.

"Itni mushkil se main apne aap ko sambhalne ki koshish karti hu, lekin tum har baar koi na koi aise baat keh dete ho, jo mujhey sui ki tarah chubh jaati hai."

"Anee-", is tarted speaking but she didn't let me finish.

"Kyu Hussain? Why do you do this to me? I try to pretend like I'm normal, and try to show the world that moving on in my life, lekin sach toh yeh hai ki main normal nahi ho sakti!", she said as she blinked away her tears. "Today you've asked me to choose between my past or you? Toh yehi sahi..tum khud mujhey apne aap se door karne pe majboor kar rahe ho Hussain.", she said, finally turning arouond and walking away.

"Anee...", I yelled out, but she turned deaf on me. She didn't stop. "Aneela!"

Sara (Anee's Mom) POV:

I walked around the lawn, which was decorated all over. I had set up a small party for Aneela's birthday, but I couldn't find Jamal (Aneela's Dad), or Kamil (Aneela's younger brother) anywhere.

"Cheers!", I heard in the distance and turned around to see that Jamal was in full mood to have a drink.

 I walked over to him, "Tum log ko sharam nahi aayi? Anee abhi tak aai hi nahi aur tum dono cheers kar rahe ho.", I sighed.

"Badtameez..ma ke samne pee rahey ho?", he blamed Kamil.

"Jamal mujhey sab pata hai bas karo.", I nodded at his playfulness. "Anee abhi tak nahi ayi, aur yeh sab Hussain ki wajah se ho raha hai!"

"Correct!", he agreed. "Hussain se zyada badtameez, aur baddimag larka maine aaj tak nahi dekha!", he said, but for some reason I felt like he wasn't being serious.

"Magar Sara us badtameez, baddimaag larke se tumhari beti hi pyaar karti hai.", he smiled. I knew it! I knew he wasn't being serious at first!

"Saas bahu ki larai bohot baar dekhi hai lekin saas damaad ki...?", he chuckled, and Kamil joined in.

"Bas karo tum dono! Kamil tum bhi?", I said irritated, and turned around to leave when Yara came and informed me that Aneela had arrived.

"Woh apne room mein hai. Aur mood ekdum bhi theek nahi", she spoke.

 "I knew this was gonna happen. Lekin apko kya? Aap cheers karo!", I taunted Jamal and went to see Anee.

Aneela's POV:

I was sitting on my bed, thinking about what Hussain had just said when my mom arrived. She saw me lost in my thoughts so she came and sat next to me and held my hand. At that moment I couldn't hold in any longer, and started crying, as I covered my face with both my hands.

"Bas Anee.", she stroked the back of my head. "Agar tum Hussain ke liye ro rahi ho, to mat ro. This is not the first time this has happened."

"This time its different mom.", I tried speaking. "I-I think Hu-Hussain doesn't l-l-love me an-anymore mom!", I said trying to catch hold of my breath in between my cries. "He doesn't care about my feelings mom. He didn't even think twice before speaking. Usne mujhey kaha ki main use door chali jaon. How could he mom?", I choked.
