One year later
All those months went so fast and so smooth, she couldn't believe her luck, her fortune. He spoiled her so much, he was tender, soft, well understanding and always answering to all her demands. They kept working together, and in their office, everything changed also, he was more realaxed and the employers were impressed with the new Sidharth Baig. It was truth that happy marital life can change you a lot, and love change both of them.
As usual, Shehnaaz was waiting for him, looking outside the window, the only thing that never change was his love for his work, and he always liked to work, a lot. As much as she can argue with him and he promised to change, he never changed. She loved him and his passion for his work was his signature. When they stepped in their marrital life, Sidharth planned to have a house next to his ammi's house, he wanted to have enough privacy and to be close if his family needed them. They only needed to make 10 steps to be in his mother's home. Shehnaaz could stay with his family when he will be abroad. She was happy with this and her house was the perfect cocoon of love, for the both of them.
What happened before and Akram's event were behind her now, but sometimes, it happened that she woke up sweating from nightmare. She always saw herself holding the gun and shooting, even if in real, she never pulled the trigger. She never talked about her dream to Sidharth, it was a past and she had to erase from her memory. Actually, they never talked about what happened to both of them, they chose to let it behind. Those dreams came in the beginning and stopped during the first 3 months of their life together. Shehnaaz looked at the watch and he was not here yet. Each time, he was late, she couldn't control her stress. She developed phobia each time, he was out of home and she couldn't stop herself and couldn't relax until he will be under her view. Sometimes, she spent some minutes just watching him, silently, hidding and admiring him working, or training or even working in his office. She needed to see him all the time, she was not like this before, but she couldn't help but to be scared each time, he was absent. She always felt a pain under her chest with passing minutes, even he already texted her that he will be late, she can't stop herself. Finally, she saw his car on the door and she finally released her breath.
Sidharth came tiredly, his tie loosened and holding his suitcase. She smiled in relief, seeing him coming. Shehnaaz ran to the front door and waited for him, welcoming him with her biggest loving smile. He was tensed and he was massaging his forehead when everything vanished looking at her beautiful face.
-hi, beautiful,
-hi Sidharth, he held her by her waist and pressed his lips on hers, in a deep and soft kiss. They parted and she stroked his hair affectionnally, aware of his headache. Are you ok ?
-seeing you, I am always fine
-dinner or coffee ?
-coffee, Shehnaaz nodded at him and went to the kitchen while he left to his room, to change.
- Sidharth your coffee ?
-thanks baby, he opened his laptop and started to work
-don't tell me that you are going to work now ? You didn't even change, Sidharth, she said exasperatly, he was still in his work clothes.
-I have to check my mails only, it will be short I promise
-really ? Shehnaaz keeps her hand on her hips and he just gave her an innocent look, fine, I will take a shower and I hope to see you laying in the bed when I will be out, ok ?
-ok, take your time, baby, he said and she rolled her eyes knowing that he will not stop working.
He was still working at home, he had a lot to do since he was happily married with the love of his life. Finally, they were married after so many obstacles. All this events were now behind them and in their life it's only love, love and more love again. Since Shehnaaz entered his life, he redoubled effort in the work to support her , even in her most trivial needs, nothing was too good for his beautiful wife. She was supportive but still she didn't like him working hard and she always forced him to take a rest. Sidharth used this moment, before she entered their room to work a bit. But the break came too early, she came out from her bath humming happily, he didn't want to look at her, he knew that he will be distract and he will end by closing his laptop. She looked at him and rolled her eyes. She came and sat next to him.
