Maryam's POV
I carefully wrapped some cotton around his bruise,securing it with the help of tape,thats the extent of my wound dressing skills!
He is fast asleep,resting his head on my thigh.Its as if he has found the most comfortable pillow ever.
The gentle rise and fall of his chest as he breathes is soothing.I stratch my arm to dim the light as I can not afford full darkness right now.My mind still reeling from the anxiety attack he just suffered.The way he calmed himself down, it seemed like a familiar routine,making me wonder if he experiences anxiety attacks frequently.
A notification breaks the silence.I am relieved to have my phone back,I thought I would have lost it.I glance at the side table to see a massage from Anaya " How are you,Maryam?"
I type her back" I am better now." But in reality I am still shaking from that incident.
Anaya
"Maryam I told you we can find another way to escape. you seriously didnt had to marry this heartless man.Didnt you see How he was so unconcerned about you.He said nothing ,showed zero kindness."She typed the whole paragraph about how much careless Samar is for me.However she doesnt know that his silence was his way of dissapointment in himself.
Me
What can be the causes for anxiety attacks?Anaya
Are you okay.Are you feeling anxious.I have told you to come with me.I know that man will not take care of you.Anaya have really bad opinion on Samar so do I and somehow it is justiciable watching his past behavior.I am curious how will she react if i told her that he is sleeping on my lap.Even I am shocked right now How can I come from totally hating him to this, this,this.
Me
Samar got it just an hour ago.I didnt know how to handle it I was more scared than him.Anaya
He got anxiety attack.The man can give anxiety attacks to others.Me
Anaya .Be serious.Anaya
There can be multiple reasons,for example work stress,death of close ones ,sleep depriviation and childhood traumas.ManyMe
What can be the reason for his anxiety.Anaya
I remembered He lost his mother tragically.She overdozed on her sleeping pills that incident can be the cause for his anxiety.Me
Anaya I feel like something is very wrong with him.He mentioned to me today while we were driving for NGO that he is emotionally poor.He lack emotional support from his wealthy family.Anaya
Why do you care about him so much.Look at him he ignored your situation with a straight face.He didnt even consoled you in such a worst situation.Let him deal with his anxiety , depression and whatever is it.He is rich enough to handle that.You should worry about yourself.Me
Anaya .I think if I understand the reason behind his strange personality maybe things will be easier.Anaya
He doesnt have anything wrong with him.He is just a rich spoiled brat.Me
I also initially believed that Samar's feeling for me were fleeting,a mere attraction.However since our marriage I have come to realize his emotions runs deeper.This revelation both surprises and unsettles me.He really have strong feelings for me and I am scared,I dont want him to feel this.This is not my plan I thought He would get bored of me with time but things are getting too much complex.
