FEARFUL & HER FEAR

Part:13 (Heart : full)

“Sir wants you to go in, ma'am" told his P.A Adnan bhai to me. I sucked my breath in before entering in his office with my slow steps.

There he was. Sitting on his couch with his hands rubbing his fine forehead.

“Didnt I tell you to wait for me in our room?" he asked looking at me while curving  his sharp & deep eyebrows.

I knew better. He didn’t like to repeat.

“Y..you did. Bu..but..I..I don..don't know where y..your room locates " I struggled with my voice but hoped him to hear me.

He did. As he almost smiled. Almost!

“We'll go together. Comfort youself here till then" he stated making my knee weak. We? Together?

I looked at the couch & then at him who was already waiting to me to give in his demand. & I followed.

Taking slow steps, I squeezed myself on another sofa looking all down. I still could feel his burning gaze on me which were making my palm sweaty.

He stood up mercying my state & called Adnan bhaiya in to continue his unfinished work.

With the help of my eyelashes, I looked at him secretly to know if he was calm or more furious now. But on my 6th attempt he caught me & we had a burning eyelock.

My cheeks turned red while his eyes turned darker. Gulping I looked down at my lap as he ordered, “Postpone the others,Adnan"

I could hear his foot tapping on floor & it was coming towards me
I closed my eyes to start reciting “Dua" to calm my stormy heart.

“So Impatient " he commented lifting me in his arms.

My heart wanted to jump out.Why did he call me Impatient? I didn’t bother him. Did I?

I kept my eyes closed till I felt my feet to touch a soft carpet. My eyes looked around & was shocked. I didn’t know this part of the house existed too.

“W..where are.. we?" I fearfully asked holding a bottom corner of his blazer as the room looked Heart throbbing enough to scare me out.

“Top floor of The Khan's mansion. Nobody's permitted to come here.." he said looking at my small hand with which I was holding his cloth tightly.

“apart from me & now us.Welcome to My..our room Mrs.Siddharth Sheikh" he completed his sentence making my heartbeat crazy.

I know he could hear every beat of it. It was that loud.

To cover that up I started speaking hurriedly, “I..I.. N..need to sa..say something.. M..may I?"

My eyes turned teary already. I looked more down but still didn’t leave his cloth's corner. I needed that hold.

“I am all ears" he answered with his deep soothing voice.

“I..know..everything.. Happened so suddenly... All. All of it.. I..know you.. You were dragged in this.. I know all this is m..my fault..I..Won't let y..you suffer in this forced marriage.. I know..you always hated the idea of.. Marrying someone.. Aunty told me once.. I..Won't trouble you.. I promise.. Mein apko bilkul pareshan nehi karungi... I..I.. Am so sorry... I will divorce you too whenever you want... Please g..gussa maat hona mujhpe (Don't get angry). I know you may regret this..but. I will honestly  do whatever you want.. I.." my hiccups  stopped me.

Controlling those I fearfully looked up at his eyes & It looked so null that I Couldn’t help but start crying like a baby in fear. Was I that much of a bad choice?
