Her love & her regrets

chapter#15

Aslam o alaikum guys

Fahad pov:

I was sitting there like a statue and I felt my heart going cold,  like it would stop pumping in few seconds.

Nothing was I thinking, nothing was I feeling...

Only a horrible sight of Hoorain laying on floor with blood around her legs was swirling in front of me, suddenly another image of my sister's dead body came in front my eyes, then my mind went to that little innocent baby who was about to come in this world, who was preparing himself for this cruel world but he was murdered before even coming to us... but I was silent..  Grave silence.

My phone was ringing continuously which was lying on floor beside me, I frowned for who was disturbing me right now when I preferred silence over anger.

With shivering hands I took the mobile and pressed the answer button.

"Hello Fahad why are you not picking my call" Faraz's tensed voice was like a Echo to ear. I wanted to answer him but I felt like someone has sealed my lips so that I can never speak.

"Here Hoorain needs you, come fast she is in pain" my eyes shot up as my heart started beating up again. "My Hoorain was alive" with Hasty movements I stood up from floor and started running towards my car.

My mind was again thinking about my wife who was in hospital and needed me.

Today as I sat in car,  I doubted on my driving skills, I wasn't able to drive and then one of Faraz's driver came and dropped me at hospital. 

Upon entering in hospital, Uncle Ismail saw me and his eyes held sympathy for me. Sympathy! That's what I deserve.

He gestured me and I followed him, where everyone was standing in front of operation theatre.

I stared at Faraz who kept his hand on my shoulder guilt and sorrow written on his face

"Baby is no more,  Hoorain's condition is also critical, they're doing operation to take out the baby" He crushed my little hope which was still residing in me waiting for some miracle for my child... Miracle I knew won't happen.

suddenly a sharp pain in my head occured, like it'll explode my head any second. 

Faraz made me sit down and gave me medicine to lessen my headache but this ache won't vanish from medicines.  It'll vanish when I would see my Hoorain.

After an hour doctor came to tell about Hoorain, I stood up gathering up the courage to listen about my wife's health.

"She is out of danger but due to heavy medicines she might take few hours or maybe few days to wake up"  doctor announced and went from there.

All were happy, except me. I was also  happy that my Hoorain is fine but knowing that the person who did that to her and who is still freely roaming around us was making me restless.

Hoorain's pov:

"Hoor I'm sorry, if only I were there for you then I would've never let that happen to you"  Someone spoke as I was struggling to open my eyes. My whole body was groaning in severe pain.

My vision blurred when I opened my eyes and whole incident replayed in mind when I stared at the hospital room.

I looked at my stomach and there was no little bump in it.... Tears made their way through my temples, hopelessly I sobbed which was pricking my soul....

Fahad grabbed my hand and wiped my tears...

I looked at him and believe me never had I seen a man this much vulnerable and weak.... Dark circles, grown beard, messy hair like it took years to see him,  more tears flowed...
