Ravaged souls

All I Wish For Is Death

Zahra's POV

Guess what? It's the D-Day, yes it's my engagement today, AHHHH I DON'T KNOW WHAT IM FEELING, I mean I feel a whole zoo dancing in my stomach, I don't know how to describe this feeling, wait am I in love? 'shut up Zahra you are just excited to wear that lehenga' you know what, I hate my brain sometimes probably every time, anyway I'm currently sitting here at the salon with jannat bhabhi to get ready for my engagement and her reception.

It's been two hours since these ladies are doing painting on my face and I absolutely hate this, honestly I never got the concept of makeup, like can't we accept people how they are? Stereotypes I know, "Mam, You can see your face now" they lady who was painting my face told me this and I turned to see myself in the mirror, I was stunned to see myself like that,I was busy admiring myself until jannat bhabhi interrupted "Zahra, we are already late, let's go" and here the new journey begins.

Walid's POV

"Bhai help me tying this bow tie, I told mom I don't want tuxedo I hate this tight thing I want a corset" humza blabbered randomly while I'm trying to tie his bow, it's his engagement today and I swear just one more trigger and I will be shattered like a glass, because it keeps getting worst, first my intern being my lost love, and before I could realise I discovered she is dating my cousin, and then when I decided to see a therapist, my therapist shows up at my home very next day saying she is best friend of my love, what's next huh? Faria proposing me? Or maybe Abdul Rehman dancing on some heart break song? Even worse Zahra getting married today instead of engagement? at this point I honestly don't know how bad it can get because everyday I wake up, there is some new mind wrenching twist in story, I'm fed up with this, it feels like a movie made by Christopher nolan, you never know what could happen next, all my exhausted and angry thoughts were disturbed by Aiman's joke "Humza you know corsets are tighter than tuxedo? You literally look like a robot in a tuxedo, struggling with a tuxedo and asking for a corset, the audacity of this guy is insane" you know this was actually a good joke or maybe my humour is broken, and I cracked up laughing at humza's face
"Bhai yaar you too?" I mean he really looks like a robot in a tuxedo but anyways. Followed by Humza and Aiman's bickerings we left home for the function, and now we are here at the venue.

I kept my hands on steering wheel and leaned over it. 'May my breaths stop right away all I wish for is death because this pain in my chest is unbearable, why Allah why me? Punish me in another way take away my soul but not this please please, at this point
I want to wear that white cloth before she wears the red one of someone else's name'
"Bhai? Come fast" I saw Aiman knocking on the window signalling me to get down, Let's see how worst it can get, let's test my fate once again but I know this for sure, the day she says 'I do' for someone else is the day I die, because after her there is no me........

Zahra's POV

"SO FINALLY I WILL WALK DOWN THE AISLE" I nearly screamed ,"Umm Zahra babe you are just getting engaged not married so it's just you going on stage not a aisle" faria who was standing next to me gave me a reality check which was definitely needed to control myself, but still I'm getting engaged WOWW, "Zahra I beg you to stop with this we need you to react like a shy bride not a school kid who is excited for fancy dress" my mom scolded me this time and I pull on the mask of shy, cute and innocent Zahra, hehehe it's my day bitches, I was walking towards stage looking down holding my lehenga from one hand and purse from other, it feels like a fairytale to me, Maybe I'm the only princess who got her prince without drama....

(Author : HEHEHE DRAMA IS WHAT WE ARE HERE FOR 😈)

As soon as I reached the stage humza extended his hand to help me get on stage alongside with imran bhai who lifted bhabhi and made her sit on her seat, my brother is the reason why my standards are so high, I grabbed humza's hand and lifted my gaze to see him and oh the view, I wonder what good deeds I did to get this handsome hunk. Four of us settled on our seats, as I looked at hall I could see Aiman, Abdul, and others checking the preparations 'but your eyes are searching for someone else'
My subconscious mind knows me pretty well but No it's not like that I just wanted to know if he came or not
'ofc he did it's his brother's engagement' Oh then where is he?
"Who?" Humza asked with confusion on his face, Oh shit I again said that too loud "Your brother and our oh so sweet boss" he chuckled at this and replied "he is here only, might be somewhere staring at the moon, by the way when will they start the ceremony?" Oh yes engagement ceremony I removed my phone to call my dad but It was already buzzing, as I checked the name it says 'Abdul' Ughh what he wants now? Humza gave me a side look and then he nodded as a signal that I should pick the call,
"Yes Abdul?" I said in annoyed tone
"Your mom is calling you at your room to check ring size" he said in monotone, "I'm coming" I ended the call and told humza about this and I told him that we will start the ceremony as soon as guests are done with dinner and I left from the stage to grab my ring not knowing that my life will take a 360° turn from here................

Sneak peak of next chapter

I opened my eyes hearing all the muttering sounds, I feel so dizzy and I don't know where am I? I took a look of surrounding and I was in my own room which was filled by people gawking at me as if I'm an ailen, what happened here? It was my engagement right? I was on the stage and then I came to my room, how did I fall asleep? I noticed my mom was crying while looking at me and humza and his mom was giving me disgust look so was dad, Imran bhai approached me and asked "Hey are you okay?" He seems like he is on the verge of crying but the anger was still present in his eyes, and then I looked next to me where HE was sitting shirtless on my bed right next to me with no expression at all, I looked at myself in the mirror right in front of my bed,
My hairs and makeup was messed up and my dupatta was no where seen, NO NO NO NO THIS CAN'T BE WHAT IM THINKING NO PLEASE NO...........
