You guys do not vote, in the previous chapter as well the views are like 90+ but votes are not even half of the views🙂 this is upsetting me so damn much 🙂I opened my eyes but instantly shut them again as a sharp ache pierced my head. Cradling it in my hands, I tried to stand, but memories that had shattered my soul flooded my mind. That was just a dream, right?
My eyes scanned the room until they fell on Shahmeer, who stood there, staring at the ground.
"Shahmeer,you know I had a dream... in that dream, I saw my Avi. He was with someone else, and I... I was crying. I was so hurt," I stammered, my voice trembling. But when I finally looked at his face, the words caught in my throat.
Why was he looking down?
"Shah, say something," I pleaded, desperation creeping into my voice. When he finally lifted his gaze, tears filled his eyes, and my heart shattered.
All the courage I had mustered, believing it was just a dream, crumbled to dust.
"Why?" A single tear escaped as I struggled to voice my pain. In response, Shahmeer enveloped me in a hug, and I broke down, crying uncontrollably as my facade fell apart in his arms.
"How could he do this to me? What kind of punishment is this, Shahmeer? How could he hurt his Hoor? He never wanted to see me cry, so why did he do this? Did I do something wrong? Did I upset him?" I cried out, my sobs echoing in the stillness of the room. It was all too much to bear; I had never been this weak.
As I wept, I heard him whispering calming words, but I wondered-would those words truly reach me? Would they change anything? Could I ever be the same Elaina again?
"Elaina, calm down," he said gently, and I pulled away from the hug to look at him.
"Why did he do this to me, Shahmeer? If he did not want me, then why... Why did he show me a future where we were together? Why did he promise to marry me?" My voice wavered, filled with desperation as I searched his eyes for answers. But all I received in return was silence. How could anyone answer these questions but him? But could I ever be able to face him again? The thought of seeing him, knowing he was no longer mine, felt unbearable.
"Elaina, no one in the family knows about your relationship with him. You need to pull yourself together. I know you are hurt, and you can cry all you want in front of me, but after this, you have to stop. If he can do this to you, then you don't need him. He hurt you; he broke his promise. Now it's time to show him his place," he said, taking a deep breath. "I know what I'm about to say is difficult, but you have to move on from him. He is married now, Aina, and you do not want to be the other woman in his life, right?"
I shook my head vigorously.
"I can never be," I choked out, tears streaming down my face.
"Exactly. My Aina is the sweetest, and anyone who loses her will regret it," he said, and I looked at him, trying to digest his every word.
Is it really this easy to move on from him? The same guy I had fantasized about since my teenage years. Shahmeer could say these things so easily, but only I knew how difficult it was to rid myself of his memories. My mind was consumed by him.
He is not mine now. That thought shattered me like a fragile clay pot. I could never be the same again; that much was certain.
"Everyone is downstairs. The doctor said you fainted because of malnutrition, and Aunty was very worried about you. I assured her you would be fine. If you want, I can bring your dinner here. I know you might won't feel comfortable downstairs with everyone," he said, his voice tinged with nervousness as he searched for a reaction on my face.
I shook my head. "I will eat with everyone downstairs," I managed to say, summoning what little courage I had left. He looked at me, unsure, and I offered him a weak smile.
"I am fine, Shah. You do not need to worry," I said, trying to ease his concern. He hesitated for a moment before standing up and leaving the room.
As the door closed behind him, I wiped away my tears. Why was I crying for him? He did not truly care about me; if he did, he wouldn't have married someone else.
I stood up and made my way to the washroom, splashing cold water on my face to erase any traces of weakness. I needed to be strong. I could not let him see how much he affected me-he was just a family member.
Once I felt somewhat composed, I headed downstairs towards the dining table. The moment I entered the room, my mother rushed to me, cupping my cheeks with worry etched on her face.
"Kitni dafa kaha hai mene, khana sahi se khaya kar"
"How many times have I told you to eat properly," she said, concern evident in her voice. I managed a weak smile, attempting to reassure her.
"I'm fine, Mamma," I replied, holding her hand gently which was on my cheeks. But as she opened her mouth to speak something again, she abruptly stopped and looked behind me. F
Confused i followed her gaze, and after looking in the direction she was looking, I felt a new wave of pain washed over me.I lifted my gaze to see them descending the stairs side by side,"Somewhere far away, I heard the sound of something breaking, and my heart shattered into countless pieces. I want to scream, to cry out, but the words are trapped inside me, suffocating in silence. Has anyone ever felt the agony of a soul being torn away? Can anyone understand this hollow emptiness that fills me? My heart still beats, but it feels like a distant echo, devoid of feeling. Each pulse reminds me of a love I can't express, leaving me stranded in an unbearable solitude where even my tears seem to dry up".
I looked away it was all too much to bear- i sat down on one of the chair placed in the dining table and waited for everyone to join,
As i felt everyone taking their seat, there was palpable tension in the air, everyone was to ask so many questions to him but no one is daring to say something, as i was about to serve myself food i heard his voice and my hand, as well as my heart stopped,
"How are you, Elaina," he asked and i gulped hard to stop my tears, my throat burned, and i lifted my gaze to look at him, he never called me Elaina but Hoor,
I met his gaze and this is the same eyes i fell in love with but today these eyes haunted me and felt so distant, his eyes didn't held any emotions they are blank while talking to me his eyes always showed some emotions but today i saw nothing- i tried to speak something but nothing came out,
