Haidar's hand gripped the phone in a death grip as he glared at the content in it. The vein between his forehead throbbed due to the unadulterated rage he was feeling.

He gritted his teeth as he yelled, "IZZAH, IZZAH!"

Izzah heard his angry roar and for a second felt her breath hitch due to the intensity of anger his tone depicted. She gulped before straightening her shoulders and walking out with a confident facade.

Her pink dupatta carelessly lied on the bed whilst she went out.

Haidar's jaw was clenched as he saw her approaching figure without a worry in her face.

The moment she was in sight he felt his choti chachijaan get up, ready to wage a war which was his.

Haidar signalled his choti chachijaan to stop by showing his palm and she obliged as everyone present in the haweli could feel the amount of anger Haidar Bakhtiyaar Malik was radiating at the moment.

He was always calm but the moment he is angry, the other person is gone and right now he was enraged.

Izzah felt herself shaking from inside due to his glaring eyes.

"Yeh tasweerein, tumhari hain?"

Izzah felt her breathing get shallow as she gazed at the pictures and his question rang making her close her eyes, she licked her lips in nervousness,

"Vo-- y-ye,"

"TUMHARI HAIN YA NAHI!?" Haidar roared making her tremble.

Slowly she nodded her head feeling ashamed as she tried to clarify,

"Vo aisa kuch nahi hai jaisa dikhai de raha hai...

Humari sirf madad kar rahe the Sahil. Humari aankhon main kuch chala gaya tha.

Ammi, Abbu aap fikra na karein Sahil vaisa nahi hai jaisa vo dikhai de raha hai. Vo humse muhabbat karta hai aur hum usse--"

"Ab ek lafz nahi sununga tumhare muh se main...
Abbu! Qazi Sahab ko bulwa lein. Nikaah aaj shaam hi hoga!" Haidar slammed his fists on the table.

"Nahi! NAHIII! Main aapse nikaah nahi karungi main kisi aur se muhabbat karti hoon aur-" Izzah tried to protest as she felt herself getting panicked but Haidar didn't let her complete and spoke heartlessly.

"Jis tarah se muhabbat ko dil main daal sakti hoon usi tarah se ise nikal phenko kyunki nikaah toh humara Aaj shaam hi hoga."

"Yeh na-insaafi hai!" Izzah yelled loudly looking at her Ammi Abbu who looked disappointed with her.

"Kams kam us se toh kam jo tumne mere saath ki hai IZZAH KAREEM MALIK!" Haidar held her arm tightly as he shook her and tears filled Izzah's eyes due to the harsh treatment. Instantly he left her and went away.

Izzah could feel the glares of her entire family. Apparently her photo was circulated between every one in the family and now someone was blackmailing Haidar to viral those among the social media.

She helplessly looked at each member as they lowered their gaze disappointed from her. Instantly she left from there to her room in order to free herself from their questioning gazes.

Haidar closed his eyes as he leaned his head on the big window of his room.

The thoughts of how his amanat broke his aitbaar and him.

She knew she was his mangetar, she was aware of the fact that he was waiting for her yet she chose to betray him and his feelings.
