Hussyan.
"Assalam-o-Alaikum." I smiled as we both walk in the living room where my parents was sitting with some of their friends.
"Walaikum Assalam, Syan. I am happy to see you here." Mom says and stood up to hug me. I smile softly and hugged her back and feel her motherly feeling that I missed a few weeks ago. I chuckle lightly when I saw Arsalan pulling Dad short beard that was grown while we weren't in contact.
"Don't do that Arsalan." I scold him softly. He look at me and nodded before hugging Dad.
"Where is Sila?" Mom asked me as we sit on the couch. I sigh and shrugged.
"At home. I don't want her to come here and insult both of you again. She tried to stop me, but I didn't listen to her. I only marry her because of Arsalan. If it was in my hand, then I would never see her in my life." I told her honestly. She look at me surprised and nodded slowly.
"I understand, but at least give her a chance. I know she would be a good wife and a good mother of Arsalan." Mom smile reassuringly making me sigh but nodded at her.
"Only for you Mom." I was confused that after everything happened yesterday why she still want me to give her a chance. "Where is everyone?" I look around and notice the house was quiet. No hint of Aisha or her family.
"Aisha and her family are at their house. Maham is at her friend house and Ahmed is in office." Dad answer my question before Mom could say anything. I nodded and we talk about the things happened in the few weeks. They told me how sorry they feel for letting Aisha do what she wants with Ahmed or Maham. I am happy that they realise their mistake before it get too late.
"Syan, can I ask you for something?" Dad asked me nervously making me confused. I nodded and wait for him to continue.
"I want you to join our business back. I am sorry, I was just angry that time and didn't know whatever I say will hurt you. I want you back in our family. We are ready to accept Sila as your wife and daughter-in-law of this house. We want you all to move in with her for few months to spend some time together." I look at him surprised and feel my eyes watered. I nodded slowly and wipe my teary eyes.
"I respect whatever you say Dad, but I am not sure about Sila. I don't know if she wants to come here and live with you. After what happened yesterday I don't think she is going to agree on it." I told him honestly making him sigh and look down sadly. My heart clenched to see my parents like that. I am not going to forgive Sila for what she is doing to my parents.
"If you don't mind can we go to your house and talk to her?" Mom asked me softly. I look at her and shake my head in confusion.
"But Mom, she crossed her limits yesterday and I am not going to let her insult you again. If she says something, I don't know what I would do with her." I told her seriously making her sigh. They look at each other for a few minutes before nodding."Okay."
"What's okay?"
"We agreed on what you just said. Now can we meet her?" Mom asked me hopefully. I sigh, but nodded. I stood up with Mom and Dad with Arsalan in his arms. We all walk out and drove in our cars.
I frowned when I saw a car parked in front of my house. I get out of my car and look at closely before recognizing it that it was of Uzair. I don't know what Uzair is doing here when I know Sila and he are not on talking to each other. He has to be in office because I said I was not coming tomorrow and we had an important meeting that he is going to attend."Whose car is this?" Dad asked as he get out of his car with Mom and Arsalan before he look at Uzair's.
"Uzair. My school friend and temporary I am working with him." I shrugged and open front door with my keys to go inside. I listen and hear nothing. The quietness in the house makes me confused. I walk in the living room and open my mouth to call Sila, but freeze at what I saw. I feel my anger getting high again. What the hell they are doing? What the hell she is doing with him in my house? I clenched my hand into a fist when I saw her gripping his arms.
"What the hell is going on here?" I shouted making them pulled away from each other. Uzair and Sila look at me with wide eyes before looking at each other nervously.
"H-Hussyan? W-What are you doing h-here?" Sila stutter and try to take a step forward, but I raised my hand to stop her.
"This is my house Sila. I can come here anytime I want. You have no right to stop me. Now tell me what is going on here? Why are you here Uzair?" I asked, glaring at him angrily.
"I-I called Sila earlier and heard her crying. So I came to make sure everything is okay." Uzair says with a confident look on his face meaning in his not lying. I take a step forward and grabbed him by his collar.
"You don't have to come here to see if she is okay or not. I am her husband and I will make sure of it. Now leave." I hissed, getting into his face. He glared at me and roughly pushed me, causing me to stumble back. He straight his collar and glare at Sila who look down avoiding his gaze.
"See? I told you to tell him everything but you didn't. I told you to tell him the truth that day, but you didn't. I helped you with everything but now you see what happened? I warned you so many times Sila but you didn't listen to me and after whatever happened now, I don't think he will ever believe me or you." With that, he turned to me and give me a glare last time before walking pass me.
"Everything is finished Uzair. The partnership is now finished between us. Now, you are on your way and I am on mine. Don't you ever dare to come near my family." I didn't turn around, but I know he heard me and glared at me before I heard his footsteps fading.
"Hussyan, please listen to me-" Sila started, but I cut her off by turning around. I sigh in relief when I didn't see Mom and Arsalan meaning she take him out of here so he couldn't see all this.
"Dad, I am so sorry for everything happened here. I want you both go back at home and please take Arsalan with you. I will come back tomorrow or maybe tonight." I told him politely. He look at me then at Sila before nodding and turning to walk away. When I heard the front door shutting and the car pulling away, I turned back to Sila and walk toward her.
"Hussyan-" She started again and again she was cut it off by me. I roughly grabbed her arms and make her looked up at me.
"What you want from me? What the hell you want from me for leaving my life forever? I will give you anything but please just go away from here and let me live in peace. Whatever you are doing right now, it's hurting me Sila. If you ever cared about me then please go away and never come back." I pushed her back, causing her to fall on the couch where she was sitting with Uzair. I turned around and walk upstairs in my room before locking myself in there. I slid down to the door and my vision get blurred. I rubbed my eyes, trying to get rid of those ugly tears.
I don't know why I am crying for her. Maybe it is because I feel betrayed again. Maybe it is because, I feel pain that pain which caused me to fall into depression 2 years back, but this time, I will stay strong and fight against it. I will fight for my life and this time, I will not back off.
