Chapter No 10

"Meerab" At the third knock when he opened the door he was surprised to see Meerab there

"What happened?" His sleep all gone the moment his eyes fell on her terrified face

"Wali th-there … I-I see somebody in the hall" Being victim of Sagheer Ali's torture she learned one thing

Acting

And although she was hating to do it with Wali but she has to in order to keep herself away from Sagheer Ali. Well she can hope so …

"Come on Meerab, how's it possible." Wali was not taking her serious

"Believe me. I was coming back from the kitchen when I heard someone snoring." he let out a sigh as she stressed and went to have a look with her

"Ok come"

Hall was dark and he didn't find anything suspicious

"See no one is here" he said to her reassuringly but she pointed at the couch in the corner

"O-over there" she whispered and when his gaze follows in the direction, he too froze at his place

Someone was laying on the couch. She knows Sagheer Ali too well. He would never disturb Sara at this hour to play a loving husband. He was all fake and pretended to be good in front of them but she knew the true him. Seeing him here sleeping so peacefully, she felt raged and her blood boiled

How can he sleep so peacefully after tormenting her

Wali switched on the lights and moved to the couch. Grabbing his collar from behind he made him stand in front of him

"What the hell?" He immediately left his collar as Sagheer Ali turned to him

"Dad" Wali got surprised to see Sagheer Ali there. She came and stood beside Wali almost hiding herself behind him

"When did you come? And you should be resting in the room" He said embracing him. She could see Sagheer Ali's face turning cold and his vicious gaze boring into hers. She averted her gaze

"I don't want to disturb your Mom" pulling back he was back to his fake self, "By the way what are you two doing so early? Wali you are not an early riser then how did this happen?" Though he was addressing Wali but his eyes were on her all the time. Subconsciously she grasped Wali's arm, where Wali was surprised, Sagheer Ali was controlling his temper seeing it

"Meerab was afraid so she wakes me up" Wali glanced at her who was standing with her head lowered

"I thought our doll has grown up" he brought his hand to her head as a pretence to bless her, she moved behind Wali and gripped his arm even more tightly. She felt disgusted by his act as he placed his hand on her head

"Yeah apparently" Wali said in a rather teasing tone but now her heart was pounding fast. She dared to stand in front of him. She wanted to make it clear to him that she is not his slave and she can live and do with her life whatever she wants. She disobeyed him for the first time while he warned her to stay away from Wali. He is not going to take it so light and sit quiet, she knew him too well. He would come back for it but this time she would not let him win

"Meerab" she came out of her thoughts when Wali snapped his fingers in front of her eyes

"What?" To it he silently gestured to his arm in her hold, "Oh so-sorry" she immediately left it and stepped aside

It was embarrassing

"I-I'll take some rest" she addressed no one in particular and was about to move when his words made her froze in her place
