MUNTAZIR (A TALE OF AWAITING LOVE) ☑️

Chapter 39

He knocks "khula hai andar ajayein !!" hearing it takes a deep breath before walking inside.

She felt anxious while watching him taking steps towards her doesn't realize when her hands went behind to hold the dressing table.

He clears throat "zain ne bataya tere decision ke baare mein honestly mujhe umeed ne thi ke tere taraf se haan hoge kyunke maine koi kasar he ne chode tujhe aazmaa kar thod daine ke, shehnaaz tere kuch doubts main clear karna chahta hoon I didn't feel the need to do so, pehle baat kuch aur thi, lekin ab jab hum ek rishte mein bandne wale hain main ne chahta tere dil mein kisi bhi tara ka doubt ho ya trust issues haun.
Mere aur maheen ke darmiyaan na dosti ke ilawa kuch nahi, she's a very dear friend of mine, all we have is friendship and out of protectiveness main tujhe uske khilaaf bol ne se mana karta hoon.
Mujhe nahin pata tujhe hum par shak kis baat ko lekar huwa but sweetheart I swear maheen is not what I want dair se he sahi realize hogaya hai the actual difference between love and friendship ❤️ If she was more than anything I wouldn't be here giving u clarifications at the first place." she bites her lower lip in nervousness.

"Main jhoot nahi bolunge us din maine aap dono ko ek dusre ke behadh qareeb dekha tha, she was literally on top of you while I was passing by your room. I'm not one of those joh bina baat kuch bhi utha kar ilzaam lagade." she clarifies, he pulls her closer by grasping her arm.

She felt her breath and heart clenched "tune itne beintehaa mohabbat karle mujhse bharosa karne mein kaise chook gaye ?" her heart raced, he gets even more closer "kya tune, kabhi mujhe is tarah uske qareeb dekha hai ?" he asks by brushing her hair due to which she jolts at her place.

She denies, shutting her eyes cuz their proximity itself was killing her "us raat, maheen baat karne aye thi mere kamre me she saw something in my eye out of concern mere qareeb aye thi check kar ne uske ilawa nothing ever happened." he gives a detailed explanation.

"Tune jitne faisle mujhse gusse mein akar liye un sabke kaun jawab daiga ?" he asks, she kept quiet unwrapping herself "I hope bhai ne aap se nikkah karne ke shart bataye hoge ?" she ignored coming straight to the point "hmm, mujhe koi aitraz nahi after all I deserve it for hurting you, itne saal tum ne mera intezaar kiya bachpane mein kiye waade par, kya main tera chaar mahine bhi muntazir ne reh sakta, woh bhi tab, jab itne khoobsurat rishte mein baandh kar jayegi which itself gives me alot of assurance that inshallah faisla mere haq par hi hoga bass duaa yahi hai ... ke tu mere paas jald se jald wapis ajaye. I do want to feel what you felt in my absence .. waiting to see me .. marry me main jaanta hoon tune jitne saal mere bina guzare hain utne toh nahi guzaar paunga lekin agar tere hisse ka aadha bhi dard maine mehsoos kar liya na toh main khud ko khush naseeb samjhunga, I want u to have that space and choice to decide for us but please try to give us one more chance I swear will not disappoint you ever again." she shuts eyes, in order to block every word and expression getting into her head.

"You don't have to show that you love me for the sake of this family .. I don't want your love !" she raises voice in anguish and frustration.

"Do you really think I am doing it for their sake ? Sadly, you don't know me then yaad hai maine is rishte se naa ke thi kyunke mujhe apni feeling ka andaza nahi tha jab ke saare ghar wale israar kar rahe thai ... unke khushi .. ko chor kar maine sirf khudke baare mein socha, yahan tak ke tujhe bhi bhool gaya .. I now care about us .. you have been through hell because of me, I am sorry, I'm ready to take anything & everything to have you back in my life just trust me for once ?" he insist, holding her hand but she resists, drawing a line.

"Why ?" she raises eyebrow.

"Why now after breaking me ?" she utters, with a lot of determination to stand still on her decision to show that nothing could alter it.
