The Unlikely Union

CHAPTER-4

Happy reading guysss💌

Maahir's pov:
It was Ishika who was in a freaking lingerie. “Gosh! Today was filled with twists but this is the best twist of all” I thought to myself. As much as I tried to ignore her presence my eyes traveled back to her. Her hair,her bust,her thighs,her waist… I couldn't stop myself from ogling her. After sometime filled with awkward silence I decided to go to the washroom and get changed. In the shower my mind was full of doubts on whether I should or whether I should not give a chance to our marriage. This marriage was arranged but I couldn't deny my attraction towards her. Cold water was trickling down my body while I was deep in my thoughts. As much as I wanted to give our marriage a chance,my mind denied it because I couldn't bear the loss of another betrayal,the last one nearly destroyed me. Ishika was a nice person but I am not and I cannot afford to get close with her and hurt her or get hurt myself. Due to the worsening of my anger and trust issues I was totally losing my mind over the fact that I let my attraction towards Ishika become a weakness. As I turned off the cold running water I made a decision and a pact with myself that I'll never get close to her or let her interfere in my life.

Ishika's pov:
As Maahir entered the room,I could feel his eyes traveling and inspecting every inch of my skin. I wanted to talk to him about what he said some time ago but before I could say anything he left for the washroom.
Time skip:
As I was sitting on the rocking chair I heard footsteps coming out of the washroom and as I turned around to get a good look,my eyes nearly fell out of my socket. Maahir was looking devilishly hot in just a towel. His abs,muscles,everything,was so perfect. I controlled myself as soon as I realized that I was literally staring at him. Before I could open my mouth, Maahir said something which broke my heart once again.
“Don't you ever think that I'll love you or that I want this relationship. Aapke liye,ham se door rehna hi behtar hain” he said in such a casual way that left me shocked.
“Par aapne to hamare baba se wachan dia tha ki aap hamare dekhbhal karenge, aapne to hamare saath sat phere bhi liye the phir ab aap hame kyun thukra rhe hain?” I said while being on the verge of tears while he stayed silent.
“Boliye na? Ab aap chup kyun ho gaye? Aap agar hamse koi nata nahi rakhna chapter the to aapne hamse wyah kyun kiya? zaroor uss Priyanka ke wajah se na?
Hamne sunli thi aapki baatein. Agar aap kisi aur ke saath rishte mein hain to aapne hamse wyah kyun Kiya?” I yelled to break the silence.
“Get out.” Maahir growled
“What?” I asked in a perplexed manner.
“I said GET OUT!” He shouted and soon I was locked out of the room and it left me enraged.

Maahir's pov:

I was regretting everything that I did and said to her but I know it is better for both of us to stay away from each other. I was stern on not letting her get close to me but at the same time I longed for her,I longed for her touch,her affection,her love and most importantly her.
She was a literal angel who fell from heaven. I didn't want to hurt her but what I was doing us for her own good. As my mind was filled with thoughts of Ishika it came across a painful memory.

Flashback:
“Aapki ye adaa hame ek din deewana karke maregi. Aapki inn aankhon mein to hame doob jane ka man karta hein” I said while admiring a girl cradled in my arm.
“Achha ji? Hame to pata hi nahi tha.” She replied while cracking a flirtatious smile.
“Accha aapko pata hein? Ab aap hamko kitna tadpauogi?” I replied while letting out a frustrated groan.

Present:
The mirror shattered into pieces and there was blood splattered everywhere. My mind was dazed thinking about the past,the past memories of one of the happiest and darkest moments of my life. I was becoming restless again and the anger within me was ignited one more time. I didn't want to live like this anymore, I didn't want to live in the past and I wanted to start living in the present. I was feeling guilty for the way I treated Ishika and I wanted to apologize but I don't know if she will accept it or not.

Time skip:
I didn't realize when my eyes closed and I fell asleep. While stretching my arms, my eyes glanced at the clock and I realized I woke up really late as it was 10:30. I was making my way downstairs after getting ready quickly and I heard my mother yelling at Ishika.

Ishika's pov:

After what happened between me and Maahir last night,I decided to sleep in the guest room.
It was 5:30 in the morning when some god sent angel decided it is a good time to bang at my room door.

“Who's there?” I asked in a sleepy voice.
“Uth jau maharani.” When I heard that stern voice I quickly fixed myself and ran to open the door.
“Ma ji,aapko kuch chahiye?”
“Hamne tumhe kal bataya the na aaj Ghar mein puja hein. Too jaldi se naha dhoke ready ho jau.”
“Ji ma ji.” As I was about to turn back I heard
“Tum idhar kyun soyi ho?” She asked sternly.
“Pehle din se hi apni man man–”
“RUK JAYIYE”

      Author's Note
Hey guys,I am really sorry for not updating.
I wasn't feeling well and results and exams just added into the stress and on top of that the chapters which I wrote were deleted from Google word and I lost all hope of writing but I just picked myself up and wrote this. I know this isn't much but I promise the next chapters will be better and longer and I'll adapt a different writing style and it will be better than this. I know this is really bad writing but please bear with me!!

Love you guyss💌💞
