The next morning, Jahaan left for the office early, while Ayaat was still asleep. It wasn't until the afternoon that she finally woke up. As she tried to get up, she was met with overwhelming pain, making it nearly impossible to move. After lying still for a while, she mustered the strength to slowly get out of bed and headed to the bathroom to take a shower.
Feeling a little better after freshening up, Ayaat went downstairs to the living room. She hadn’t eaten anything since the previous day, so she was starving. When she opened the fridge, she found it stocked with all her favorite things—ice cream, chocolates, and so many other treats. At first, she was confused, wondering how these items had ended up there. But then, slowly, memories started to piece together in her mind.
She recalled the eerie feeling she’d had of being followed, the sense that someone was always watching her, and the strange man in the black attire she’d seen at the shop. It dawned on her that all of this had been Jahaan's doing. He had sent people to spy on her, to keep track of her every move.After grabbing a pastry, she settles on the sofa and begins eating. She sits there for a while, lost in thought, before heading to her room to arrange her clothes in the cupboard. She knows this place is now her home. As she opens her bag to take out her clothes, she’s shocked when she opens the cupboard. It’s like a dream wardrobe, filled with clothes of every color and pattern, and a section below is dedicated to stunning jewelry. Ayaat is surprised by how much has been prepared for her arrival. She places her clothes in a corner and heads downstairs. After all the hardships she’s been through, she decides she deserves a little happiness, so she turns on the TV and watches it for a while, passing the day away.
As night falls and the clock strikes 10, memories of the last two nights flood her mind, filling her with dread. She knows the terrifying events of the past two nights might happen again. An idea comes to her—if she falls asleep before Jahaan arrives, nothing will happen. Quickly, she goes upstairs and falls asleep. At midnight, Jahaan returns home at 12 AM, heads to her room, and quietly enters. He sees her sleeping peacefully, sits by her side, and gazes at her sweet face until 2 AM. Finally, he lies down beside her and, watching her, drifts off to sleep.
