Their Inocent Sister

ch-16 Her true feelings

Author's pov

After aafiya and Saad's conversation, Saad went to his room while aafiya went downstairs. As she reached down she saw zayan seated on the sofa looking really tensed.

Zayan noticed her and stood up quickly. She royally ignored him and sat opposite of him. He quickly went and sat beside her, Aafiya looked at him strangly.

Zayan- what did you two talk about?

Aafiya- why are you asking?

Zayan- because i want to know.

Aafiya- did i ever ask you that what conversations you had with your brothers. He became speech less at her reply and couldn't understand what to say now but to his luck aadil entered from the big main door.

Aadil stopped on his steps noticing aafiya. Who was not paying attention to zayan just now, saw aadil and automatically her hand griped zayan's hand tightly which was beside her.

Zayan saw her face which instantly became pale because of, fear? He felt really bad he couldn't do anything on this, atleast now. Aadil saw her actions and pale face and he couldn't control his emotions and his tears fell silently.

Just now aafiya was frowning on zayan and now she just wants her brothers protection from her other brother and that's the thing which hurts zayan and aadil the most.

But they knew it's not her fault in this. Aafiya who came out of her scared phase, noticed aadil's tear filled face. She knows that she shouldn't feel this seeing his tears but she couldn't help herself.

She was feeling guilty and wanted to wipe his tears. And she almost got up from her seat to do so but then she remembered something making her stop on her feet. She quickly ran to her room and locked it. She sat on her bed and started sobbing.

Aafiya- why, why me! Why always me!?! Sorry aadil sir but I am not going to make that mistake again, not now, not in the near future. She said wiping her tears aggressively.

(Flashback)

Teenage aadil was in his room sitting on the bed while his face showed only anger. He had a fight in the school which led him to get injured badly. Unknowingly a tear fell from his eye as he couldn't endure the pain anymore.

Just then little aafiya came in his room. She noticed his tears and went near him.

Aafiya- kya hua bhaiyya? (What happened brother)

Aadil- nothing. He said with a harsh voice as he didn't wanted to see anyone at this moment Specially aafiya.

Aafiya- then why are you crying? And your injured too. She said with a sad pout.

Aadil- I am not crying,Now leave me alone.

Aafiya- no you are crying. She said and went close to him to wipe his few tears but what he did next shook her to the core.

Aadil- I SAID I AM NOT CRYING, AND DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME, JUST LEAVE ME ALONE. STOP BEING A SPOILED KID AND LISTEN TO US FOR ONCE. he said harshly pushing her away and she almost fell but balanced herself. Hearing his loud voice made her scared but his words hurted more.

She was a child to understand something but she still had that smartness. She understands every word her brothers say to her but her being her, always ignores it. Like now too.

Aafiya- s-sorry. She said and ran off telling herself to not do these types of things again.
