He burned down all of the evidence she had and that included tubes of virus she got accidentally in her bag. She was watching all the evidence getting burning, helplessly. He was indeed clever because he knew it all from the beginning. For the first time in her life, she found herself getting trapped in the cage of the devil.

"If you dared to tell this to anyone. I am your mighty husband. You know what I mean here," he said while pointing a finger in front of her nose and then he left.

Three months later,

It had been three weeks since they talked. She either did not try to talk to him. The case was closed and they were back home. She does not want to live here because it reminds her how Roman killed that man. She pretended she was busy and he seemed extremely busy as well. She was working on her project when she heard a car's horn. She looked out of the glass window. Much to her surprise Imran and Eliza were back. She rushed to the door and hugged them. She just wanted to cry but she saw Roman standing behind them. She smiled fake.

"Oh dear, how weak you are getting. You were not eating am I right?" asked Eliza, concerned. "Roman, you were not taking good care of her?" she asked.

"No Mom, she better knows how to take care of herself. Are not you Saliha?" he asked while looking at her and she felt eerie.

"No aunt, I am taking good care," she said, smiling.

Eliza smiled.

"Now I have come home and I will take good care of yours'." Said Saliha.

Saliha felt her heart rushing fast.

**********

Saliha had prepared dinner and it was after so long she was eating with everyone.

"Wow nice pie Saliha," said Imran. She smiled.

"You got your mother's guts about cooking," said Eliza.

"Yeah, she was one of the best cooks," said Imran.

She looked at Roman, he was wearing a poker expressions.

"Mom, Dad, I want to tell something," said Roman.

Saliha looked down at her plate.

"I am leaving for the USA for two years," he said. She looks up at him instantly.

"Wow, nice.." said Eliza.

"You should go for further studies," said Imran.

"Yeah, I am thinking of doing a PHD degree," he said.

"Well done," Eliza said.

Roman scratches his head.

Saliha was almost silent in this conversation.

"Saliha, how are your studies going?" asked Imran.

"I am good at it. I am working on a project," said Saliha.

"Oh very nice," said Eliza.

She looked at Roman who was wearing poker expressions.

"You have no option, wear it and you are getting engaged today," said Hunza's mother, Mrs. Wasiq.

Hunza took a deep breath and walked towards the wardrobe. She knew she had to do this political marriage only for the sake of her parents.

************

She was walking down with her mother and then she looked up, heartlessly. More than 200 people were at the party. She looked around and she knew they all were here for the business.

She was looking around expressionlessly when her eyes collided with a pair of green. She gasped because she could recognize those eyes anywhere. It was Emaad.

"Today we are gathering here for the engagement party of my daughter with Mr. Emaad," her father announced.

"What?" she almost gasped. Emaad was in shock as well. Kashan walks in from the corner and he laughs at her sister. She clenched her teeth and whispered.

"You knew?" she asked.

"No sister, but this is the biggest surprise in my life. A cat and a dog are marrying?" he said in a whisper. She snapped his foot with her heel. He almost howled.

"Let's exchange the rings," said Mr. Alvi. She walked ahead and placed the ring on his ring finger but she noticed a smirk on Emaad's lips. She looked so angry.

"So cat...fate chosen you..." he thought.

************

It was the day he was leaving. She was panicked. She had no idea why she was feeling that way. Her heart was rushing so fast. She was standing on the balcony for fresh air when she felt someone was standing behind her.

She turned; it was Roman. He was wearing his usual poker expressions.

"I am leaving but don't think you are free to do what you do," he said while adjusting her off-shoulder sleeve on her shoulder. She felt shiver because of his touch. He bent on her and brought his lips near to her ear.

"I got my eyes on you, inch by inch, side by side," she gasped and got straight.

She was in a trance. He turned and left. After a while, she heard his car leaving. She fell and started crying. She was now in the very stormy part of life.

*************

1 year later,

Saliha is living a very unhappy life and she does not share her pain with anyone. She loved Roman but he broke her in a way that she could never fix herself. He broke her heart and she felt she was living in a cage. He used to call Eliza and Imran occasionally but he never talked to her. He even never asked about her. She was slowly living a life of unreality where everything was fine and he never committed any murder.

His aggressive behavior towards people still gives nightmares to her.

She stopped writing a diary because of her depression and this led to her thought haunting her with his memories. She digs herself inside her career and studies.

**********

She was talking to Eric while Emaad was staring at her angrily.

"Come on one more cup," said Eric. Emaad clenches his teeth when Eric raises a spoon to feed Hunza an in ice-cream and he takes the spoon inside his mouth instead.

"What the..." Eric said, annoyed.

Emaad grabs the cup from the table and throws it inside the dustbin. Hunza got up from the chair.

"What are you doing?" she asked annoyed.

"Blueberry? Seriously? Such tacky taste," Emaad said to Eric.

"Emaad, you should not throw other's things," said Hunza.

"And he should not touch other's things," he said, annoyed, and grabbed Hunza's forearm and took her away with him.

Eric was watching him leaving confused. Eric was Hunza's new classmate and her new friend as well, something Emaad hates.
