"There will be no divorce, ever. So think before you say yes." His view fixated on her.
"I've already said yes." Her voice and eyes were dim, too much for anyone to not notice.
"I'm a cruel man so don't you dare humiliate me if you get cold feet and...

"Rehaan?" Her shock was evident in her voice.
He looked up at her face and passed her a smile, "How are you feeling today my jaan?"
"Aap yahan kya kar rahay hain ab tak!" She had forgotten about going to work now. His face and eyes looked tormented.
(What are you doing here till now!)
Before he could stand she knelt down and sat on her knees in front of him, "Aap kyun hain yahan ab tak?"
(Why are you here till now?)
"Mene kaha tha na mere paas janay ke liye koi jagah nahi hai Shahwar." She felt so much pain seeing him talk like he was doing fine sitting out there.
(I had told you I don't have anywhere to go to Shahwar.)
"Get up!" She held his hands and pulled them while standing again, "Rehaan." She shook her head when he stood up feeling his legs almost numb, she knew he was not okay. "Bohat pareshan kartay hain aap mujhe."
(You worry me a lot.)
"Sorry. Ab nahi karunga." He replied immediately.
(I won't do it now.)
Shahwar opened the door of her house and took him inside holding his hand, "Go and change your clothes, shower, rest. There's food in the refrigerator, warm it up and—wait, you go in, I'll bring it."
"No. You're getting late for work. Go now. That's not a good impression for first day." He smiled at her while she had no care about her work at the moment. "I'll be alright. Go Shahwar."
She didn't want to go and her hold on his hand grew firm, "I don't trust you. You'll do something worse on your own again."
She didn't trust him, her words were enough for Rehaan to understand where she now saw him in her life, he had ruined the trust between them. "I won't. Please go Shahwar or I'll go back outside."
"You're threatening me now?" She moved her head in a soft jerk and narrowed her eyes at him.
"Never." His lips turned into a sad smile, "I'll do as you say, but go to work, please jaan." He didn't want her to feel upset at work especially on her first day.
"Fine. You. Will. Rest." She warned.
"I will." He nodded.
"I'll be back till evening. First eat something and then shower, right now."
Rehaan stepped forward and touched her head affectionately, "All the best my love."
She wanted to not feel her heart that was melting, at his words. "Hm." She moved away and walked out of the house, even though she didn't want to leave him. But it was important that she did. It was better if she was away from him. That way she wouldn't be heartbroken again. She wouldn't remember things, she wouldn't remember how she had tried to end her life and it had led to her losing her child. That one memory she had tried to completely eradicate from her life because whenever she'd even catch a glimpse of it, her body gave up.
