Her Helpmate

Chapter 40: Hatred

Author:

Saira inclined on Naveed without any response. Beads of sweat aggregated on her forehead. All she did was imagine only the bad. Bad that she is going to lose her Minaret. Naveed Sahab held her tied in his embrace and just stood helplessly. He can't save his Junior or his colleague.

On the other hand, luck just lightened upon Shaurya and Dharam. When the truck was not more than a hundred-meter distance, Dharam cried out, "Junior look behind!" 

As soon as Shaurya lift his eyes off the laptop screen and tilted his head, his flight and flight hormones activated when he saw a truck targeting their car and he yelled, "Dharam, Jump!" 

They opened the door and leaped out of the car. Shaurya injured his knees, palms, and elbows but Dharam acquired an injury on his head which made him loss conscious and lie unresponsive on the floor. 

Simultaneously, the truck dashed the car riding it with great speed and making its collision with a shop beside the curb. The glass wall of the jewelry shop splashed and shredded into multiple pieces. 

Shaurya looked startled and stunned at his car and the truck and even the store. There was no one in the shop, which was another luck of that day. Calming his breath Shaurya looked in the opposite direction and Saira inclined over Naveed without any response. 

Naveed looked in Shaurya's direction and with growing relaxation and spirit he shook Saira's body. Yelling in her ears, to wake up and look over them. 

Saira opened her eyes and yelled from there his name, "Shaurya!" 

One by one people started to surround them. One of the men from the pack pulled the driver out of his truck's cabin and started to hit him vigorously to be careless and override his truck on a car.

Saira barrelled in Shaurya's direction and jumped upon him.  She placed multiple kisses on his face and hugged him again. I really wonder if she was the same obstinate bear of mine, who hated me with her whole heart. Shaurya stood up ignoring mild aches in his knees. 

Naveed Sahab made his way to the driver and hauled him out from the people and demanded,  "Who asked you to do this?" He questioned him directly. That accident didn't look like..it just happened accidentally without any intentions or purpose. He was targeting his truck to the car. So, therefore. In conclusion, it was on purpose. Somebody planned this accident. 

"No...no one." the poor driver stammered, shedding tears from his small eyes.

"Not in this way!" Saira announced, glowering in the driver's direction.  She grabbed a broken glass piece and made her way to the driver. "Let's do it this way!" She ran the sharp piece of glass over his arm, which sliced his sleeve and even the skin. "Who hired you to do this work?" She demanded. Her blood was boiling and her eyes were burning with rage. She could kill anyone who is trying to attack her husband. She never cared about her life the way she care for Shaurya. Shaurya was everything to her. And even her weakness.  

"Nobody madam my breaks failed!" he replied. Saira didn't buy his words and gave another cut just below the previous one.

Meanwhile, Shaurya checked Dharam's pulse, who still lay unconscious and unresponsive. He checked on his pulse. Once he found the pulsation of the artery against his fingertips, he released a long sigh. Then he immediately asked a nearby person to call an ambulance. 

"Naveed Sahab, search his mobile!" Shaurya demanded. Naveed checked the driver's trouser pockets. After finding an old version of a Nokia mobile in his left trouser pocket, Naveed Sahab took it near Shaurya. Shaurya unlocked his mobile and went through his recent call list.
