Infatuated Desire

Her Kidnapping

"What happened Sanam? I have been noticing you for the last two days you are quite silent. Is something bothering you?"

Haadi said looking at her. She and Haadi were sitting in the lounge watching the TV.

But Haadi was noticing her for a long time that her eyes were on the TV but she was lost somewhere in her thoughts. And after feeling that, Haadi has to ask her.

"No...No..... nothing is as such. Haadi, I am fine, you don't worry."

Sanam on his calling came out of her thoughts and she said hardly made herself to smile.

Now what she can tell him is that the reason for her worriedness is not something else but his brother and his behavior. And nowadays he was further intensifying Sanam's worriedness.

After that night, along with distrust now fear also started resting in her heart for Asfand.

Sanam felt that after telling him everything she can't end his hatred for herself, that hatred which has been in his heart for the past six years. And also he isn't going to believe whatever she says to him.

So she was silently enduring his hatred.

"Uncle I think dad scolded mama that's why she is remaining silent. And now she doesn't play a game with me."

Now Aashir, who was silently watching the TV, also took part in their conversation. And along with that, he also made a complaint against his mother. Haadi and Sanam both smiled at that.

"No, my son, nothing is like that. It's just that your mama was a bit sad and as far as playing is concerned so you go and bring your all games. Today I and your uncle will play all games with you."

Adoringly she placed her lips on his forehead. Just because of one person she can't ignore her adoring son who was also tensed because of her silence.

"Alright, mama. I will bring it now. We will play all the games."

On just her saying, his innocent face glowed with happiness. And he quickly ran to his room. They both smiled on looking at his hastiness.

"Sanam, if you have any problem then without reluctance you can share with me. I didn't just tell you as my friend in fact I also consider you my friend."

Seeing Aashir going out, Haadi again called her. Maybe, Sanam was avoiding talking with him in front of Aashir.

"Haadi you know this very well that in which circumstances I came here. I am just worried about my mother. I will relieve if I talk with her."

It's true that she was tense thinking about her mother. It's been many days that was staying here and meanwhile she didn't contact her mother.

"It's just that. If you told me first then I would have made a call to her and you talked with her."

On Sanam's revealing, he chuckled. In such short period of time, Sanam became very dear to him. So he was very interested in solving her problem.

"But how I can talk with her what if someone knew about it?"

"No one will know anything. Don't underestimate Haadi Yaar Khan. If some problem occurred, I will handle it."

Now he said it in such a style that Sanam can't stop herself from bursting into laughter.

"See, keep on laughing like that. By swear, you look breathtaking."

This time he became cocky.

While Sanam still can't stop herself from cackling. On the other side, Asfand, who was passing by the lounge, feet halted right there on listening to Haadi's sentence and Sanam bursting into laughter.

His grip on the file holding in his hand tightened.

"You are very nice, Haadi. No one can feel bored in your company."

She open-heartedly praised him. And it was the reason for Asfand growing anger.

"That I am. But you are also very nice, Sanam. Without any intention, you helped my brother. Sometimes I wonder how my arrogant brother got a girl like you. You should have to meet a man like me who always make you laugh."

Now he mischievously winked and laughed at her. And on his laughing Sanam also giggled. Asfand can't make it to stay here anymore after seeing her openly laughing with her.

In anger, he clenched his fists and stormed out with the same silence so no one noticed him standing there.

"In fun, I almost forget the important matter. Tell me, when do you want to talk with your mother?"

On instant reminding, then he asked her.

"Now leave it. It's been late. Tomorrow I will talk with her."

She said glancing at the time on the wall clock. She knew that her father will be at home at this time. So she doesn't want to trouble her mother by calling her at that time.

"Fine, then you remind me tomorrow."

He said gazing at Aashir coming towards him. He was coming to them with his games in his hands.

After he came, the three were sitting and playing. While in that she forgets about her problem and her mood became pleasant as she was enjoying playing with them.

Past

Six years ago

"Ma'am you don't need to worry. Everything is under our control."

She was asleep when she hardly made her eyes open as an unfamiliar voice hit her ears.

The sun rays were falling on her yellow face from the single window of the room. And because of that she has difficulty in opening her eyes. On top of that, the wave of pain arising in her head had led her to escape a groan from her mouth.

"Alright, make sure no mistake happens. Otherwise, you people know your consequences."

Sanam jerkily opened her eyes on listening to a familiar voice with someone's heavy man voice. She tried to sit up but her body was not supporting her.

Because of the pain, a sob escaped from her mouth. And the voice of her sobbing has made people in the room attentive toward her.

"Finally, after full two days and five hours, you gained conscious."

When this familiar voice talked with her then Sanam turned her neck towards her voice and her eyes left wide open after seeing the person standing in front of her.

"What happened? Are you surprised on finding me here?"

With a sarcastic smile, she came towards her. And she motioned to the man standing near her to go outside.

"You shouldn't be surprised on spotting me here. But you have to be astonished after knowing where you are and from how many days you are here."

As she said that, she sat on the chair near her bed. Sanam, who was shocked on seeing her here, became alarmed for the first time on Laraib informing.

Right now she was in an unknown place sitting on the bed. This place was quite strange for her.

She run her eyes into the surroundings and at that very moment, something popped into her mind. She still remembers this clearly when she came out of her home for the university but then suddenly someone blocked her way.

And then she doesn't remember what happened after that. And instantly she felt something wrong has happened.

"Where I am? I want to go home."

She threw away the blanket from herself and tried to get up. But she again sat on the bed holding her dizzy head.

"In the end, you will go to your home but I don't think so your family will let you into the house now."

With a strange smile on her face, she was looking at her. Her face seemed as if she gained something very precious.

"What do you mean? Why are you saying that? And where I am? Why are you here? What is this happening?"

She was asking her all the questions at the same time originating in her mind. She wasn't getting anything.

"You have been in my prison here for the last two days. And you are here because I wanted this."

This time she stood up from her seat and stand right in front of her who was staring at her with a shocked look.

"Why did you do this? At last, what do you want?"

For the last two days, she has been here. What will be the situation in her home? Everyone will be thinking wrong about her long absence from home. Sanam felt her soul is about to leave her body thinking all of this.

She knew Laraib because of Asfand. And as far as she knew she never talked harshly with Laraib then why she was doing this with her? She wasn't understanding this.

"You did a mistake by coming between me and Asfand, Sanam Ibrahim Khan. Asfand is only mine. I will not let anyone come between us."

She harshly clenched Sanam's hair in her fist and because of that a slight shriek came out of her mouth.

"Leave me, Laraib. It's paining."

She was trying to free her hair from her grip. But she kept her hold firm on her.

"This pain is nothing in front of the pain which I used to feel on seeing you and Asfand together, Sanam Ibrahim. You know what, here I was feeling pain."

She motioned her towards her heart. Her eyes were exhibiting an apparent madness of her and Sanam got scared of seeing this.

"I didn't give you any pain and neither does I come between you, Laraib because Asfand loves me."

Enduring her pain, she hardly made herself speak this. Because of the pain, her eyes which were filled with tears slipped from her eyes and absorbed into her hair.

"If you didn't come between us then Asfand would be only mine. He would only love me but you ruined everything. Everything was destroyed because of you but now I will make everything right. You have to go away from our lives."

She harshly let her hair free and get away from her.

"If you think you will get Asfand by doing all this then it's your misunderstanding Laraib. Nothing will ever happen like that. Asfand will never love you."

She said hardly suppressing her sobbing. While laughter echoed in the whole room on her saying this.

Sanam unknowingly gazed at her laughing maniacally.

"You are very innocent Sanam. In our society, there is no respect for the girl who has disappeared from her home for two days and two nights. Don't you know?"

A sarcastic smile was apparent on her face and on her saying that Sanam became a statue in her place.

"Even your father and mother will not accept you so how Asfand is going to accept you? He is also a man, at last. Like every other man he also wants a modest and pure life partner but not a girl like you who disappeared two days from her home."

Saying in a poisonous-filled tone she was making Sanam aware of the harsh reality.

"I will report to the police against you. I will tell them that you kidnapped me. Then everyone will believe me."

Wiping her tears, Sanam said in a scattered voice. Her condition now was quite pitiful.

"Let's suppose I will let you go then what do you think how everyone will believe in whatever you say? Do you have any proof? Don't you have?"

She was still smiling at her condition.

"If you were kidnapped then how you were set free without getting their ransom? How you will make this point clear to everyone?"

Sanam was silently listening to her talking because it was true whatever she was saying. Though willingly she can't amend the damage that has happened.

"Now forget Sanam that Asfand will look at you because you can't prove your chastity to anyone."

Now she came and stood in front of her.

"Why did you do this with me?"

Sanam just made herself ask her this.

"If you didn't come into the life of Asfand then nothing as such will ever happen to you. So now it's for your betterment that before I do something worse with you, just silently go away from his life without telling him anything. And by the way, now you have known me quite well."

She leaned forward a bit to warn her. And Sanam was quick to sense that she is able to do whatever she is claiming.

"You humiliated me Laraib, but don't forget God will never forgive you for this."

After completely listening to her, she cried hiding her face in her hands.

Everything was finished in her life. No one will believe her after what happened to her. And whom she would tell this? First of all, she was scared of her father who don't know what will do with her. She just has hope in God.

"First you think of yourself. You don't need to worry about me."

She took out her phone from the pocket of her pant and went out of the room to pick up the call.

"Yes Aazal, everything happened according to our planning. My work is done. My men will leave her from where they picked her up. Now you have to do the rest of your work by yourself."

She came out of the room talking on the phone.
