Chasing Love.

Chp-6

Aliza's POV-

I don't know how to feel. My life is a complete mess. I don't know how to deal with my life.

First that grumpy millionnaire is after my pride and now my mum. Her condition shook each and every one of us specially my father. My heart aches confronting him like this. His existence is of no use. Except the mosque and my mum's room there is no place where you can find him. With such a disturbed mindset I wasn't willing to attend university today but just because of my mum's will i am here.

As i reached near the university premises i saw Zohair standing near the gate. His existence was enough to irritate my remaining sanity. I just hope that he won't create any mess today.

I entered the gate with Maryam by my side. But something pulled me back. I looked behind to face Mr.Zohair . I looked at my wrist which was in his grip. My heart paced and i could feel it skipping a beat. For an instance i was scared but i instantly covered it with anger.

"Leave my hand!" I grunted and pulled it away from his grip.

My eyes were shooting daggers at him. The only fear running in my veins was the fear of being insulted again. The fear of spilling my tears in front of this coward millionaire...again.

His eyes met mine and a foreign sensation equipped my heart. Was there guilt in his eyes? I closed my eyes trying hard to suppress the tears that screamed to be shed. I looked down and was about to turn and leave when he talked.

"Aliza !please listen to me."

i remained silent and glued to the spot. I wanted to scream yell and kill him but all i could do was remain still..

He took a step forward and wiped the lone tear that exited my eye. How much i tried to keep it unshed!

"Aliza.. I am extremely sorry. Please stop hurting yourself. I know forgiveness is too vast to ask for. But therefore i am here asking for punishment. II will accept whatever punishment you choose for me but please stop hurting yourslef. I am sorry."

My heart froze listening to his words. Am I day dreaming? Ofcourse i never expected him to apologize.

Thousands of questions were roaming in my mind but i chose to remain silent. If i try to get my answers now i will end up crying like a baby again. And what if he is doing all this just to break me more. My heart was thumping hard and i felt my head swirling if i stand here for a second more i will definitely faint.

"Its okay" i mumbled and left. Hiding the tears and ignoring the stares from the public.

Zohair's POV.

I don't know if i should be happy or sad. The fact that she accepted my apology lessened my grief but the truth that it wasn't whole heartedly accepted made it worse. I didn't accepted this kind of reaction from her. She is too complicated. But that's what made her special. I don't want to make things tough for us so i just decided the simplest form of taking our relationship ahead.Marriage.

As I have already talked to my parents about her I think it won't be tough to handle.

It was hard to convince them as my millionnaire parents want a millionaire girl who can reach their standards. They want a bold daughter in law and Aliza is a simple girl with minimal fashion addiction.

Somehow i managed to place my point of view and when they came to know about her father they had no choice but to agree. Aliza's father and my father were childhood friends. There was a time when they were inseparable but after getting married and gaining success my father started maintaining a distance which in turn made them far from each other. Anyways I am glad they agreed now the only concern is what if she rejects my proposal.?
