Zoya (Completed ✔️)

Chapter 5

It's been one whole week and my father still hadn't talked with me.

After that incident, I couldn't even dare face him; in other words, I was scared to my wits if I ever came across him.

My father didn't even notice me at all until one day...

I was getting ready for work when my father came to my room with a serious look on his face. It clearly showed that he didn't want to be messed with. I looked at him with a very confused look.

"Zoya, I know you don't want to marry Ramzan but..." he paused and sat on the corner of my bed. "You don't know how worried I am of you. A father's biggest responsibility is getting his daughter married to a guy who is fit for her. Ok, I understand that you don't want to marry Ramzan but you know that I have promised Ashiq that I will get you married to him. Please understand me dear, I can't take back my promise." he said emotionally and for once I felt bad for him but this is about me, right?

"What is it Abba that you want to tell me?" I asked him knowing the reason behind all his talks.

"Zoya, I am going to fix your marriage with Ramzan as I have promised Ashiq," Does that mean I am getting married to the well-known Devil. I couldn't believe that my father had just said that. I tried to bite my lower lip and inner cheek to prevent myself from crying.

"Dear, you don't need to get married to him this fast," he paused again before continuing "Your nikkah is only going to be done when you're ready and we will go through the finishing touches by the end of this week," he informed me.

I couldn't believe this. My dad had just sold me to the devil.

"Please don't disappoint me dear," my father said as he went out of the room silently.

I was left alone with my thoughts again. I couldn't believe I was getting married. This time there was no way. I locked myself in my room and started to let all my tears flow and with that I knew I couldn't attend work today since I was definitely not in the mood for it. After I woke up, I called my boss and asked him if I could have a leave for today. I called Sana and asked her to call me later at night when she comes back from work.

Ya Allah, I feel so hungry. I don't want to go down and face my family downstairs. I called Zafar, my brother and asked him to order food for me and send it to through my window. He laughed at my sudden order but when he saw the serious look on my face...he agreed to get me my food.

"Bring me a lot of food as well," I said to him as he was leaving my room.

"Yes miss, your wish is my command" he bowed as I shook my head at his stupidity and immaturity.

I went to my drawer and took out my journal and scribbled the incident down inside it. It was already late by the time I had finished eating the food Zafar had bought me. Seeing the darkness outside my room, I knew everyone must have slept already. I tiptoed towards the kitchen and threw all the waste out. I was going to go back to my room when I saw a shadow.

"Allahhhh" I screamed and ran towards my bedroom but unsuccessfully the shadow caught me

"Dii, it's me Hafiz" he said with a low voice as he held his hand over my mouth. I pushed him aside.

"Why are you here, you idiot?" I asked him. Hafiz is my cousin and also Zafar's best friend.

"I was here from the evening but Zafar told me not to go near you or else you would bite me." he said winking at me "but when I heard the noise coming from the kitchen, I knew it was you," he said the obvious.

"Great, you are a genius. Come to my room and talk. If my father caught me, he will lock me in my room thinking that I was running from home with you" I joked.

"Who will come with you buffalo?" he asked me laughing.

"Buffalo your..." I gave him a hard punch in the arm and started walking towards my room. He winced slightly and followed me towards my room silently making very minimal noise so that no one would wake up.
