Wedlock

Chapter 7

Days passed and Karishma is now settled in her new home. She got shifted to her separate room, that is opposite to Haseena's room on first floor. Her daily routine is, to wake up in the morning, and assist Noor, whether it is in home or at work or doctor's visit, as Noor is now facing some medical problems like high blood pressure and blood sugar. Karishma is Noor's First Top favourite now, and Haseena is feeling more ignored, but she is also satisfied that her mother has got a great company.

The equation between Haseena and Karishma is still the same, no, it would be better if we can say that, there is no equation between them. There is nothing more than HI and BYE between them. And they don't have anything more than that. Everything is going smoothly, Karishma has received a call from university that her classes are going to start soon, this made her both excited and nervous at the same time. Excited because she is, about to start a new and better chapter of her life, and nervous because for first time, she is going to do something alone in this new country. But she is hopeful and determined.

Rey is back from work yesterday, and called Karishma that he wants to meet her, as they want some private space, so Rey suggested to meet at Haseena's gym.

Next day NoorJahan and Karishma were at store, when Karishma asked for a little break.

"Auntie, I have some work, I'll be back in 2 hours. Take care of yourself and I have put your medicine in drawer, take that on time" Karishma told Noor.

"Don't worry Karishma, I'll have my medicine on time. You can go and take care." Noor instructed Karishma.

Karishma then took a bus and heads towards Haseena's gym. She was here first time on her own. She goes to gym and sat alone at Haseena's cabin, as Rey is late like always.

Haseena send her a message through receptionist, "Ma'am you may sit in the gym area, if you want, rather than sitting alone in cabin." Karishma nods ok, and the receptionist leads her to gym area. Karishma sat at one corner and started looking here and there, until her eyes caught Haseena, who is guiding one of her student

"Is she always this close to her students,and why is she holding her students hand, the girl can lift weight by herself." Karishma was looking at Haseena, who was helping a new girl with dumbells "Damn, Haseena is too close to the girl, why she is easy like this, and the girl why is she smiling at Haseena, the girl needs to maintain a distance from Haseena" Karishma was lost in her thoughts, and God knows why she is feeling jealous and having these thoughts

After Haseena helped the girl, she decides to give some company to Karishma who was sitting alone, and was giving weird vibes to Haseena, "Again this girl, is lost in her thoughts. Don't she get tired by putting so much pressure on her mind, by thinking like this always" Haseena murmured to herself.

Haseena goes towards Karishma, and sat beside her maintaining some distance.

"Do you want some tea?" Haseena asked.

"No, I'm good. I just have it with Auntie, half an hour before" Karishma replied, without really looking at Haseena.

"Oh, ok" Haseena said, and tried to continue the conversation in her own way. "Why don't you try some machines here" Haseena offered Karishma a solution for timepass, which again irks Karishma. "You can also stretch like that girl", Haseena pointed towards a young girl, "It increases flexibility and muscle moments, and that machine there it helps with cardio, you can try cardio if you want" Haseena's random gym talks was irking Karishma more and more. Thank God, Rey arrived on time and saved Haseena.

"I'm in cabin" Rey messaged Karishma and Karishma heads towards cabin instantly. Haseena decided not to go there, to greet Rey, as it was a working day, moreover, Rey and Karishma is on break from work, so she don't want to waste their time.
