56.It's Just The Beginning

Yaksha's POV

"It's final! Our Aaliyah is going to get married. They sent an official agreement today.They have also asked to come here to discuss about the wedding ceremony." He smiled in so much excitement that I couldn't bring myself to say anything other than a small hum.

"Mhm." I gave a small smile.

"I wasn't there in Kahir's wedding and I always felt disappointed that I couldn't be.But I don't want there to be missing anything in my sister's wedding.She shall have a wedding that people remember even after century.A far more grand and bigger than mine."

"Mhm."

"You talked to her today right? She seemed happy right? When I went to ask about her consent about the wedding that day she agreed so swiftly even I doubted she wanted this or not. But her words were enough to convince me she wanted this wedding.After all she would never say no to her brother. Ask her about her preference okay? What she wants and doesn't want."

"Mhm."

"Are you even listening to what I am saying? Are you not well?"  His hands suddenly grasped my shoulders shaking them softly making me come out of my trance.

"Uh-yes. I will ask Aaliyah what she wants."

I know exactly what she wants. And as much as I want to reveal it,it's not my place to. Which is resulting in me lying to my husband. But it's a white lie isn't it? If my lies are making someone's life better then I will lie more if needed. I have seen Aaliyah crying like a baby in my arms that day and I will be a fool not to support her this time.

Who am I kidding? I will support her every and any time.

"And what do you want begum?Do you have something on your mind?" His thumb softly caressed my cheeks bending down to my level as if he was weighing on my answer.

While I couldn't help but fall in more love with him if that was even possible for me for knowing what goes through my mind without even saying a single word I also kind of feel anxious that he does.Because in front him all my facades melts away like an ice.

Just like now.

"I-I am just worried about Aaliyah leaving.Apart from you and Meena she is the only one person who I can talk to. And she is dear to me just like a little sister. I am not very happy about her going away." I rubbed my face against his thumb taking all the warmth I can get from him.

"Oh I know.My baby leaving isn't something I can handle as of now but we will have to make this small sacrifice for her to be happy right? She deserves the attention of a man that only her husband can give. She might not say it vocally but she craves attention and affection. One that her mother couldn't ever give and our brother's weren't enough for her."

You say that but I don't think she craves that from anyone but him.

"Will you finally tell me about Aaliyah's mother?Why are you so angered by her? Why do you always forbid me to go near her?" I mean that dark energy she executes is already a reason but I still crave to know the real one and also to change the current topic.Lying to him constantly isn't something I can pull off yet.

He sighs finally taking a seat beside me. "Black magic.She practices black magic.She started doing it when Kahir was born.Even though my father knew about it,he did nothing to stop her. She only prayed my downfall ever since she came here.Her will of vengeance was so strong that even one day after my father died she hold one month old Aaliyah in her arms and went out of the palace to the person she was learning this from."
