HOOR POV:
"Azlan, tum sab aik sath jao ga, Hoor mera sath aya gi." My heart dropped, and my breath left me as I stared at him in disbelief. I glanced at my brother, slightly shaking my head, warning him not to agree.I can't go with him; my brother knows that. I may be acting immature, but it's not in my control. I can't stop myself from recalling those terrible memories and the awful truth. Whenever he gets near me, I panic. The thought of him finding out the truth and looking down at me like I'm filthy terrifies me.
When I can't look at myself in the mirror, how can he?
"Sure thing, we'll meet you at the spot." My mouth fell open as I watched my brother and the rest leave, as if they didn't know me. Saira turned around and gave me a wink, making me glare at her.Traitors!
I stared at my brother's back and bit my lip. My shoulders dropped when he didn't even glance back at me. I looked down, feeling tears welling up. The feelings of insecurity and betrayal overwhelmed me; I thought my brother would understand. I thought h-.
"Let's go." I was snapped out of my thoughts and looked at my wrist, which was in his hand. I looked up at him, clenched my jaw, and yanked my wrist out of his grip harshly.
"Don't touch me, samjha ap?" Saying that, I walked toward his car without hearing his response, sat in the front seat, and closed the door with a loud 'thump'
.SIKANDER POV:
I watched her move away from me again. My eyes followed her until she disappeared into my car.Her behavior since the first day I came here has been unconventional. Stranger than it should be.
She avoided me, and I knew that from the moment I saw her in the kitchen. Her every gesture screams that she's seeking escape. I also noticed she doesn't like being touched, not just by men but also by women.
Her body tenses up even if someone hugs her. My mind was sounding alarms, and I couldn't ignore it. I looked up at the sky and swore to myself that I would find out the reason one way or another.
HOOR POV: At night, around 10:
I pulled off my shoes and walked over to the wet grass to relax. The cold wind passed by, sending a shiver down my spine. I closed my eyes and smiled to myself, my body relaxing, until someone grabbed my arm tightly and turned me around. My mood soured as I stared at my brother's angry eyes.
"What happened now?" I pulled my arm out of his grip, wrapping it around my waist as I stared at him.
"I am surprised you are still asking what happened." I shrugged and turned around to walk away, saying, "I have no idea what you are talking about."
"Do not turn your back on me, little woman." He grabbed me and turned me around again, glaring. My eyes hardened, and I said, "I am not like you, to turn my back on someone who needs them desperately." His eyes softened as I tugged myself away from him and looked down, speaking in a low voice.
"I never thought you would do this... Do you like seeing it when I feel like I have no one beside me? I told you that I can't be with him, whether you like it or not, but look what you did... You left the moment I told you not to... I wanted to be with him too, but I can't, my mind won't allow me... I was not comfortable, and you know this better than anyone-" Azlan cut me off by stepping forward.
"I want you to be comfortable around people, Hoor. And what you are doing is not acceptable. You are not even ready to give yourself a chance after so many years. You are disappointing me by showing nothing but weakness."
"Bhai! Do you think I don't want to? Do you think I enjoy staying alone? Do you think I like it when Saira looks disappointed when I stop her from hugging me? I want more than anyone to move on! But it's not in my hands. I can't stop myself from thinking. I have no control over it, so please... Please. Just stop pushing me toward him." I looked at my brother with tears in my eyes as he stayed quiet and looked ahead. Silence filled the air as I sat on the wet grass.
"I heard from Mother that you are going back the day after tomorrow." He said after a while, making me sigh and look down, slowly nodding.It was true... I told Mother yesterday that I would leave this weekend. I spent more days here than I should have, and now it was time to go back. "Why?"
"I came here because... Because I wanted to see him, even if its just for a moment.... It will help me spend the rest of my life." I looked toward Azlan and smiled sadly. "Only because of that did I agree to come here. And now that I have, it's time for me to go back."
Azlan stared at his younger sister, who was looking up with her eyes closed. He let out a sigh, feeling helpless for the first time. He wanted his sister to be happy, but she wasn't even letting him do a single thing. His mind was racing with thoughts as a small smile suddenly appeared on his face when he saw someone walking toward them.
I heard the sound of a throat clearing and looked up to find him staring directly at me. I glanced at my brother, who turned his face away, making me frown as I looked back at him. His eyes held a little anger, making my mouth go dry as I licked my dry lips.
"We need to talk." With that, he turned around, making me stare at his back, dumbfounded. What?
He glanced over his shoulder to see if I was following him, but when he saw I hadn't moved an inch, he walked back toward me and grabbed my hand, making me gasp in surprise.
"Wh-what-?"
"Not a damn word, my Angel." His eyes held a warning as he tightened his grip and pulled me with him. I tried to free my hand and looked back at my brother for help, but he was nowhere to be seen.
"Leh-let go of me. Sikander! Let go of my hand!" I struggled to free my hand from his grip, but he ignored me and kept walking before stopping in front of a door.
My heart sank when I realized it was his room. He pushed the door open and pulled me inside, locking the door behind us.Fear started to fill me as I backed away from him. My heart thumped in panic as I looked around the room for an escape. I saw the bathroom door and was about to run toward it when...
"Don't you dare." His dangerously low voice filled the room, making me freeze in place, a shiver running down my spine.
"What were you just talking about outside, huh?" He stood in front of me with his hands in his pant pockets, staring right at me. I looked at him breathlessly and turned my head to the side.
"Nothing..."
"Nothing? Then why were you talking about living your life after seeing me?" My heart skipped a beat as I kept looking at an invisible spot, ignoring his intense gaze, and gulped the knot forming in my throat before gathering the courage to say,
"It's none of your damn business, Mr. Sikander. And you certainly have no right to ask me questions." I looked up at his eyes while saying that. His eyes darkened as he took a big step toward me. He grabbed both my arms and pulled me toward him. I shivered at his touch because every part of his body was touching mine.
His breath fanned my face, making my lips part a little. A smirk formed on his lips as he mumbled, looking right into my eyes and making my eyes widen a little.
"You don't talk about rights, my Angel. Because if I start and speak continuously, my list of rights on you is not going to end until the end of my life. So you better not talk about rights."
