Don't know what time it was at night when her eyes opened in fear. She abruptly sat on the bed and wiped out the sweat from her forehead.
As she turned her neck to her other side, she found an empty bed as usual.
On that day, after nikkah, she has been shifted to Wadan's bedroom. But it seems Wadan forget to come to his room after that day.
He leaves very early in the morning before her eyes opened and at night she drowsed in sleep waiting for his arrival while he came late at night.
Which time he came back home or whether he is coming to his room or not, Hadia doesn't know anything about it. She glanced at the clock on the side table.
It was indicating 1 o clock of the night.
In this eerie silence, the ticking of the clock and Hadia's breathing can be listened to clearly. Getting scared of this silence, she gets up from the bed and came out of the room.
Her feet by himself started moving towards outside. She was intended to go to the lawn to inhale fresh breath.
But her feet stopped moving upon spotting Wadan who was standing in the lounge near the glass wall.
The view of the lawn can be clearly seen from there. In the light of the moon, she can clearly see his face.
His shirt sleeves were folded. He was standing standstill in his place looking up to the sky. There was a strange attraction in this man which always attracts Hadia in his spell. And after that only death can let her apart from him.
Very slowly she was taking steps and came and stood behind him.
"My life is like that dark night completely silent and black."
He can sense her presence so he said without turning back to her. Hadia who was lost in staring at him came back to her senses on his speaking abruptly.
She can feel his presence in the same way he also does.
"I want to become light in your dark life. Just give me an opportunity."
On his broad muscular arm, she puts her delicate hand. Wadan slightly turned his head towards her to gaze at her but he stay rooted in his place.
He was standing silently feeling her soft and delicate touch which was fulfilling down to his soul.
"You will also drown in this darkness Hadia and I don't want this ever."
Now he completely turned towards her and gazed at her for a good amount of time. The light of the moon was making her face look more beautiful. He felt himself drowning in her sea-green eyes.
"I agree Wadan. I'm ready to let myself drown with you in this darkness. But don't separate my love from me."
In a daze, she laid her hand on his chest. Under her delicate palm, Wadan's heart started thumping rapidly.
"It's in your betterment to stay away from me Hadia. Otherwise one day you will hate my presence."
Don't know why his tone becomes so strange that Hadia wasn't able to get it.
"Hadia can never hate her Wadan. Your Hadia isn't that much weak, Wadan."
She said in determination holding both arms of that long and broad man standing in front of her. It seems as if she was assuring him with her saying.
Don't know what made Wadan intoxicated by her saying that he drifted more closely to her. He forwarded his hand and struck her hair falling on her face behind her ear.
She seemed lost somewhere in his soft and warm touch.
"Time and circumstances make everyone weak."
He was touching the mark on her forehead with his hand. After touching that mark softly his hand moved to her cheek.
"If I become weak then you hold me."
She was staring into his eyes where she can see her reflection. Her talking was intoxicating him and Wadan feel himself getting intoxicated.
In that intoxicated state, from her cheek, his moving hand stopped on Hadia's lips.
The slight breezing and a scene of flowers was making this moment more enchanting.
"I'm also scattered Hadia, hold me also."
Saying in trance, he leaned on her. Feeling the scent of his breathing Hadia's heart started beating unevenly.
"Wadan I."
Her sentence was left in mid when he closed the remaining distance leaned on her and captured her soft and pink lips to stop her breathing.
Hadia tightly grabbed his shirt in her fist. She felt her legs are becoming lifeless. It felt to her as if time has stopped. She was feeling herself getting drowned in the beauty of this moment.
In a trance, he was leaning on her face realizing his love.
To hold herself steady as Hadia encircled her delicate arm around his neck, Wadan instantly came back to his senses.
In a moment, he distanced himself. And very heartlessly he separated her from himself.
"No, it's not right. Stay away from me. Ohh God what I just did."
He murmured and very harshly scratched his hair.
He becomes scared of his changing state in which there was so much intensity.
"Wadan I am your wife."
Her tears came out on her disgrace. And she didn't try to wipe them out.
"Stay silent Hadia. Just stay silent and for God's sake stay away from me."
He diverted his eyes from her red-turning eyes. When Hadia suppressed her sobbing ran away from there.
After her leaving, Wadan punched the glass wall with his full force.
"Don't come near me Hadia. You will hate me when you find out the truth. And I will not be able to endure your hatred after that much love."
He again gazed at the sky where the moon was hidden in the clouds.
On looking at the moon, he was reminded of an incident that happened a little earlier and in a daze, he touched his lips.
She has been gone but she left her scent inside him. Harshly he shut his eyes.
In the darkness of night, a lone tear silently escaped from his eye, and was immersed in the carpet.
