Alina gently placed her palm over his chest, and he winced. Quickly, she retracted her hand.

'Haider—you love me, right? Then why don't you trust me and share every part of your life?' She asked innocently. Haider hesitated. She took his hand in hers and blinked slowly at him.

Haider exhaled deeply and shifted. Alina helped him sit. With shaky fingers, he unbuttoned his shirt and pushed it aside. Alina's eyes widened upon seeing bruise marks over his bare chest. Slowly, he shrugged his shirt off with her help. She placed her palm over her mouth as she eyed some more marks on his arms.

'Oh my God! Haider who did this to you?' She asked. Haider shivered and she quickly helped him wear his shirt again and made him lay down.

He sighed placing his hand over his forehead, - 'It is enough for the day.' He said firmly and Alina knew that was it. There was silence, she looked at him. He kept his eyes closed. She hesitated,

- 'Haider, Dr. Ashna said you need to be—I have ointment for your bruises.' She said.

'I don't need them, Miss. Alina. Now, I am tired and need to sleep. Good night.'

Alina nodded her head. She glanced at him, then tied her hair in a loose braid and laid facing the other side.

In the middle of the night, Alina felt Haider shake violently beside her. He kept muttering something under his breath. She had instant goosebumps.

'Don't do this—Ammi! Ammi! Anyone—open—the door—Ammi, Ammi!' He yelled in his sleep and then whimpered letting out a sob. Alina has had enough, she sat up straight on the bed and looked at him. Haider was shaking, his eyes closed, his arms and legs stiff and sweat glistened all over his face, trickling down his throat and into his chest.

'Haider, Haider.' Alina held his shoulder and shook him. Haider's eyes snapped open and she gasped pulling her hand away. He looked at her, dazed and alarmed. She was taken aback seeing tears in his eyes and dried tear strain on the corner of his eyes.

'Wha—What—' Haider propped up on his palms and raised from the bed. Alina hugged him, wrapping her arms around his neck.

'Relax, Haider.'

Her concern overwhelmed him. No one, no one was ever with him when he was abused nor when he had night terrors. Now, being in her arms comforted him. He held her hands and sobbed silently. The first time, there was no control over his tears and no fear of being judged. Alina was super-shocked to see this side of him. She caressed his back trying to comfort him.

'I am not mad, Alina. I am not crazy.' He cried in her arms. Alina had tears in her eyes as well. She clenched him tighter and shook her head.

'You are not mad, Haider.' She consoled him. He held her stiffer and kept his mouth pressed against her shoulder. Alina suggested she gets water for him, but he held her hand. She winced as he grasped her wrist very tightly numbing her fingers.
