Ajeeb hain yeh bandishen mohabbat ki,

Na hum ne qaid kiya,

Na woh faraar hue!!

She left the way she came, same eyes which held hatred the day one and today. Each day she showed her way of expressing her love for him.

That she wanted to give this relation a chance, he knew that he did a grave sin by not sharing anything to her.

When she would say each and every detail of her day and life too.

Mustafa stood there like a statue watching his heart and a part him going away.

He kept staring at the door as if waiting for her to come back and ask the reason behind his words and that so called contract.

He kept expecting her to return from the same door and slap him for his doing and tell at him, or at least stay with him in the same house and know what's the problem.

But she didn't.............

His eyes welled up at thought of her leaving he gritted his teeth and clenched his finger to tight that they turned white.

He clearly made up his mind that today he will say all the truth with every details and would never keep any secrets from her but........

He closed his eyes and sat on sofa and hide his face in his head.

Habiba couldn't see the strong build up man crying. This made her own tears to fall free.

Abdul went in and informed rehan about it and sat on his bed shocked by the reaction eira gave.

No one could think that she would leave them without uttering a single word and didn't asked for explanation.

Ammi,what can she do she was angry very much angry that her own son who was her pride did this to an innocent girl. But after all seeing her son she couldn't stop herself from going towards mustafa.

She took a step to be stopped by her husband she looked at him with tearful eyes but he took her to the room.

Mustafa stood from sofa and walked to his room.

For unknown reason his heartbeat picked up the pace, his breathe were not normal beats of sweat form on his neck and forehead.

He stood in front of his room's door, and the scenes from last hours clouded his mind he stood here, she came out from this door and walked out like staying  here for a second will kill her.

Inhaling a deep breath he twisted the knob of the door and walked in, as if taunting him eira's cherry like smell surrounded him.

Her bangles, her earings, her rings, her jewels and her memories pulled the last  string of his broken heart.

Not having the power to hold on anymore, Mustafa sat at the edge of bed and cried like a small kid who was done with his life.

His silent crying turned in sobs than in wailing, he never thought that his one mistake could be the misery of his love.

His heat was bleed  and burnt when her those hatred filled eyes come in his memory.

If he had the power to change the time, he would go back to their nikkah day and would say everything about the contract.

He failed as good husband.........

He failed to safe that day than on the dawat night she was injured but he couldn't do anything, than not even her first wound was healed she was shot........

He knew who did this he caught that man and even killed him but the pain eira went through was killing Mustafa.

Eira would have been in her own world, would have been rude to him and his family.

Would have throw a tantrum and deny the nikkah.

Would have showed the attitude to everyone and would order them all.

Would have denied to share the bed and would have rule over the room.

That's what Mustafa thought when she started in the car after nikkah.

He thought that eira would shove him out of the room or would have demand for a separate room.

Eira would have avenge Mustafa and his family for the disturbance caused in her life

Would have ran in her room when habiba came and would say habiba to leave the mansion after staying for an hour.

But what she did............

She came in their mansion and bought a different colors to their already coloured life.

She didn't demanded for a different room. Listen to what her father said.

The said yes in a heartbeat without knowing about him and his family.

She walked in the home with a smile on her lips and stayed calm with everyone.

Knew about everything with a keen eyes. Didn't brought the topic of him and zoha his cousin.

She didn't demand for anything but love but what he gave her?

Betrayal and pain!!

He still remember her voice when she took his name with a concern laced voice. His heart still skip a beat  on remembrance of her shy face.

How everything was going good till evening, why does it have to be done today why?

Many questions with no answer.

Seconds change to minutes than in hours, with him seated on the edge of bed holding her that chain around his fingers with lights off, caressing the chain with his tumb and letting his eyes cry on his failed love,

Abdul and habiba came in and sat on  the carpeted floor on his either side.

Mustafa didn't care to wipe his face and kept staring in the space as if lost.

Abdul and habiba shared a look than habiba smiled that uttered the words carefully.

"Mustafa, we can go tomorrow and talk to her than bring her back don't cry. " Abdul said as if encouraging Mustafa but in vain.

"Ji bhai, aap usse jeet sakte hain woh aapse baath karne kabhi mana nahi karegi" Habiba agreed with Abdul

"She is not anything to win habiba, she was my life and love and she won't  even spare me a glance forget about coming back and talking to me."

At this they both kept quiet and stood from the floor. Understanding what he wanted to say.

"Now go and switch of the lights." Mustafa stood when he saw that it was Tahajjud time.

That night they both cried for their live and prayed of a better future for each other.

Cried like a lover  in front Almighty  asking for their love. Missing each other beside them.
