I Fell In Love With A Stranger

5. My Father Is Alive?

He dragged me away from the streets, we're back in the house now, to be precise we're currently locked into 'our' room.

While Khalid's seated in the living room, if Khalid's really my cousin from my dad's side then I must be running away from him.

'what is it that you wanna say' I said fearfully. If Zishan says he's my uncle. I'd love it!

kyda what the hell are you even thinking.

'what I'm going to say isn't gonna sound good okay' he held my hands, as If I thought it was gonna sound okay! I knew it was a bad news. 'look he's right, Khalid's your cousin from your dads side' he finished the sentence

'but how--' he hardly even lets me to finish my sentences off 'shh' he placed his finger on my lips, ew bacteria. Take it off please, luckily he took it off.

'i didn't know any of this, until the day we fought remember? You fell unconsciously and he kept blaming me for doing that to you, I explained to that peice of jerk that your my wife' he exhaled 'and he thought I was lying because of the way you acted about the whole 'bothering' thing' he rolled his eyes dramatically

'but no sooner did I tell him about our lovely relationship' he exaggerated 'and I felt bad for punching someone who was technically defending my wife's stupid decision, so I took him home with me.'

'but how?-' there he goes again shushing me

'just listen' he sounds manipulative

'somehow we introduced our selves and I told him your name, and that's when he overwhelmed saying he's your cousin, he actually travelled to England knowing you'll be here for your studies because that's what he heard but unfortunately for his luck you're married to me' he kept raising his eyebrows 'coincidentally he met us on the streets arguing, he told me your dad sent him here' at this point my entire hands felt numb, I held onto Zishans hand firmly tightening our grip.

'my dad sent him' I clenched my teeths. I hate my dad for doing this. But he's not alive how come?

'calm down Kyda, I know this is hard' he paused, how the hell does Zishan knows all of this?

'how do you know' I asked him furrowing my eyebrows.

'well that's not the point' he hesitated

'so the reason why your dad sent him here is to get married to you, he told me this after I explained about our relationship and that's when I regretted telling him everything, stupid me I should've said him you love me, or at least your pregnant and get him outta the way' okay he's beating around the Bush now. And what?

Me pregnant by who? OH PLEASE.

'but my mom told me that my dad passed away? And she even had a heart attack, a real one' I said apprehensively. He paused for a minute studying me properly before he continued

'Kyda, your dad is alive, he's not dead it's all a misunderstanding' he said calmly. Who does he think he is? I know about my parents.

'listen my dad passed away two years ago! Okay?' I said scornfully 'and that's when my mom got her first Heart attack, and if your wondering why I married you, yes it's because I'm scared that she might get another if I was stubborn saying I don't wanna marry you' I know this is hurting him. I could sense it from his eyes.

'alright did see see your dad die?' well played concealing your feelings Zishan.

'she heard it'

'then how could It be accurate?' he cocked an eyebrow. He's having a point over here.

'well because she heard it' I yelled. He's pissing me off

'okay okay I'm sorry, gosh' he widened his eyes. Calming my nerves.
