"I love her so much, It physically pains me to imagine a life without her, I feel like I won't survive a single second, without her. I feel I am drowning and only she could save me, But here I am, drowning without her, and she'...

"Mahib." I shake his shoulder, his clothes still drenched from rain.
"Hm?" He hums, still caressing Noor's head placed on his chest.
"We are here." I point at the house where the car had stopped and driver got out of the car.
Somehow, Mahib managed to call a car from home for us to escape that place although the guys that came with him were kind enough to offer us a ride home.
Mahib had Noor wrapped in a warm blanket and had her attached to himself all the time.
He hadn't looked up from Noor's face, who slept peacefully on her baba's chest. His one arm wrapped around her protectively and his other hand wrapped my shoulders, holding me close. Like he is protecting his world in his arms.
Mahib looks up and nods. "Let's go inside and change Noorie's clothes, she must be cold."
I nod and we both get out of the car. As we get inside the door, we are immediately roped in by our family.
Mama who had already swollen eyes, starts crying again as she sees Noor and takes her in her arms, kissing her head repeatedly.
"She is not hurt, is she?" Zayed asks, his eyes filled with concern.
"No." I reply. "I think those blood blotches on the headband was to lure us. She is fine."
Zayed takes a reliving breath and kisses Noor's palm.
Baba places his hand on Noor's head and Saboor caress's Noor's face.
"Are you both okay?" Eman asks looking at us.
Mahib nods. "We are."
Eman eyes follow the faint splash of crimson on Mahib's shirt which wasn't washed away from the rain, he shakes his head. "Not mine."
She glances at me and then him. "All over?"
He nods. "Everything."
Eman takes a reliving breath and grabs my hand. "Thank god everything is over. You are okay, right?"
I nod, patting her hand. "I am."
Baba looks at us. "It's late and you both must be tired. Take Noor and go get some sleep. We will handle everything later."
Mama gives Noor to us and I take her in arms and we both go upstairs to our room.
"Let's make Noor sleep in our room?" Mahib asks hopefully.
I look over my shoulder and nod. "Sure."
Silently, we both enter inside the room and I take out few towels and quickly change my clothes as Mahib goes to Noor's room to pick up a change of clothes for her.
I swipe a towel on Noor's head and change her into the clothes Mahib brought, she fell asleep in the car ride and hasn't woke up since then. I cover her with her blanket and kiss her forehead.
