Doomed in love

chapter 8

Murtasim was stilled and he could not form words, he could not believe his shy women can be so ferocious..

But he can't leave her, married or unmarried,  life without her is out of question,  it's his meerab, she has to be in front of his eyes , in his home, waiting for him to come back...

He chuckled a little at the thought, meerab  was confused...

Murtasim: ( with smirk) If I leave you then will it look good for a woman with self respect to live with a man to whom she is not married, I don't think so you can take such a bold move, till eternity you are with me and no man can dare to think about you , it's only me , who will have you in ALL WAYS, just relax and don't think much, that I will do, you just take care of my needs and when time will come I will leave everything and EVERYONE,  I can't let them play with us, he kissed her forehead, then cheek and turned around and left....

Meerab was standing as it is, her hand absentmindedly moved towards her cheek , where his fragrance was still lingering,  she could not believe this man has so much effect on her, but still she is adamant on not letting him to marry Haya..

Murtasim on the other hand went directly towards hall , where everyone was seated and worried about upcoming events and discussing that how can they save their daughters from Mallik's..

Murtasim : I want to talk to haya,  in front of everyone, ( he moved towards her looking into her eyes), I dont acknowledge those women who declare their love interest openly and ask for marriage, I never liked your point of view but always respected you as cousin and now I hate you, still you wanna to go with this marriage thing..

Haya ( smiled): just a correction,  man like you can never be my love interest,  I have never shown any sign  of advancement towards you, never shown any interest like your meerab did , so you mean you don't like her..?

Murtasim ( getting angry) : just shut up and don't forget you are talking about meerab murtasim khan and also if you don't respect her position atleast consider her your cousin before degrading her publicly...

On the other side of hall, after listening this conversation,  meerab can't believe that haya thinks about her like this...

Before matter gets worsen, Ma begum interrupted them and scolded

Maa begum : is it the time to fight within or to face external world, focus on the actual matter.. first we have to handle that girl nagma, will you tell me naurez where you met her and on your wedding day for what reason you went out..

Naurez: forgive me Maa begum but , I can't reveal the truth, in front of everyone, then he eyed murtasim and left immediately hall..

Murtasim followed him and grabbed his color from back and brought him to a corner, and due to fear he told him everything, initially murtasim was shocked to hear but had to believe as he had proof of whatever he is saying, he was getting so angry on haya for hiding truth from family, he asked naurez to shut his mouth for time being, let her play her game...
But he also knew he need to act fast before things are out of his hand..

Murtasim went in hall and asked for attention of everyone ..

Murtasim : after two days me and haya will get married, and meerab knows about this , she is agree to this...

Everyone was silent , no one could  speak for some minutes, then waqas stood and spoke..

Waqas: This is not correct, before this marriage , murtasim you have to free my daughter, I will not let her live a life where she will always fight for her existence,  every father choose best husband for her daughter , not a battle field to fight ..
I beg in front of you please leave her..

Murtasim: till the time in this world murtasim khan is living,, meerab will always remain meerab murtasim khan, she is my possession..

Waqas: my daughter is not a piece of land or a showpiece that is your possession, she is my honour , my pride and I can't let you to destroy her like this, I will never accept all this..
On the other hand meerab was constantly crying as she was unable to bear pain, his father supported her and with anila left hall..

Anwar khan on the other hand was shocked and curious to know how come murtasim agreed so easily..

Haya was happy but not showing it ..

Murtasim declared on same day naurez will get married to mariyam..

Maa begum : are you talking about our mariyam, how can she get married in two days, this is not joke..

Murtasim: This is the only way to save mariyam from Mallik's..

Maa begum knew he was right , but she was not ready yet for her daughter to get married..

Haya wanted to talk to murtasim..

Haya : murtasim I have some conditions before marriage...
