Swallow the pain with sabr and Salah.

A A H I L -

"Aahil, stop where are you going?"

Faaezah yelled from behind when she saw him going somewhere, he turned back and saw her running towards him.

"Ezah, leave!"

Aahil said, his voice was cold, his eyes were red. Faaezah sighed.

"Aahil, you have to stay strong, if you behave like this then what will happen?"

Faaezah said cupping his cheeks, Aahil let out some tears to fall from his eyes which he was holding from so long.

"Aahil you can't become weak now, You had to take the revenge of zayna by destroying them."

Faaezah said and pulled him in a hug. She was a one year younger than Aahil and that's why they both were so close to each other.

"Zayna is Ramsha Phupho's daughter!"

Aahil said while pulling back from a hug, Faaezah looked at him with an astounded look.

"What?! She resembles Haris and Wajdan alot and sometimes this thought had came in my mind but then i thought I am thinking alot."

Faaezah said, but latter smile. Aahil gave her a small smile. Later Aahil had asked Asher and Haris to drop the girls to his warehouse. Asher was staying with them while Haris was with Aahil.

Aahil had asked them too increase the security of the warehouse.

The next three days were very difficult for all of them especially for Aahil, Zayna's hadn't regained consciousness and the doctor had told them know there are high chances of her too get in coma. He wasn't understanding what he should do.

He was coming back from his warehouse, when he saw some men going in masjid for the namaz. He remembers the Zayna's recitation of Quran.

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ

Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].

وَلَلۡأٓخِرَةُ خَيۡرٞ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ

And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].

وَلَسَوۡفَ يُعۡطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرۡضَىٰٓ

And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.

أَلَمۡ يَجِدۡكَ يَتِيمٗا فَـَٔاوَىٰ

Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلّٗا فَهَدَىٰ

And He found you lost and guided [you].

He opened his eyes, his heart started beating loudly, he was getting restless. He took a deep breath and closes his eyes again.

"Aye Maalik, mujhe kuch nahi chaiye, bas zayna ko thk kardein. itni se dua hai."

He Whispers, less than he knew a hand lifted to Allah is never left empty. He drove to the hospital.

"Aahil bhai, Zayna is regaining consciousness."

This was the first thing he had heard while entering the area where Zayna's room was. He looked at Haris, who was having tears in his eyes but he was smiling. Aahil looked at him and took a breath of relief.

The doctor came out from Zayna's room gaining their attention. They looked at her and gave them a smile.

"Sahi kehte hai dua mein dawa se zyada asar hota hai. She has regained consciousness so you can meet her."

She said, Haris wiped his tears, Nayab looked at him and held his hand, he looked at her, she tightened her hold and blinked her eyes in assurance. He smiles at her.

They move inside the room, except Haris and Aahil, they were afraid to face her.

"Zayna, how can you do this? Tune ham sab ko pareshan kar diya tha yaar. We were so scared that what if something happened to you then-?"

Ashinoor bursted on her, when she stopped in the middle, words didn't come out from her mouth, Zayna chuckled and raised her eyebrow.

"Then what?"

Zayna questioned her softly, but a glint of tears were present in her eyes. Ashinoor glared at her, she was trying to hold her tears but couldn't. She moved forward and hugged zayna.

"I was so scared, I thought I was going to lose you. Aesa mazak mat Kara kar Jahan pe jaan nikal jaye."

Ashinoor whispers, Zayna lightly chuckles and wipes her tears. She scanned the view, but she didn't find those two person's she was looking for. Nayab and Faaezah looked at each other; they knew she was finding Aahil and Haris.

"Zayna Appi, how are you feeling now?"

Nayab asked her with a smile, Zayna looked at her and smiled softly.

"Alhamdulillah but my head is spinning."

Zayna said.

"That maybe because of the Medicines that doctor have given too. zayna you may take rest. Exertion is not good for your health now."

Faaezah said and kissed her forehead, Zayna smiled at her, she was feeling motherly warmth.

"Get well soon bhabi, there are lots of devar-bhabhi things we have to do."

Asher said and winked at her, Zayna laughed at him and nodded. Meanwhile there was someone who was secretly watching him, Asher was aware of the gaze but ignored it.

They came outside the room, Zayna looked at their disappearing figure and sighed and let out the tears flow from her eyes which she was holding from long.

What was her fault?

She is messed up in all this, she just wanted to live a normal life but that doesn't seem possible.

She heard the sound of the door opening again. She turned her face and saw her brother and her husband standing there. She looked at their faces.

She was angry with them, she was hurt by the revelation, she just turned her face to the other side not wanting to talk with them.

"Zee?"

She heard Haris voice, she looked at his face and wiped the corner of her eyes.

"Don't do this, Zee. If you're angry with me then tell me that you are angry, I'm sorry. Your silence is hurting."

Haris whispers softly, Zayna's tears threaten to fall from her eyes. She took a shaky breath.

"Aap logo ke badle pure hue? Aap logo ka majbooriyan Puri hui? Ab khuda ke vaste baksh de muje aap log! Azaad kardein Aahil mujhe aap iss rishte se, mujhse ab ye sab bardash nahi hoga, Sabr ki aakhiri hadd pr khadi hu mei."

Zayna said with tears falling from her eyes, only she knew how she had said those words. She had kept the stone in her heart while saying these.

Aahil looked at her, only he knew how he had felt when she had called him 'Aahil' instead of 'Mir'.

"Zee, are you out of your mind? Keh kya rahi hi tum?"

Haris said with an unbelievable look.

"I'm not out of my mind, Haris. I just needed time. How could I accept that you are my brother? You can't even understand what I am feeling right now. It seems like my whole life was a lie. Everything was a lie, everything!"

Zayna said, her face was pale, her eyes were bloodshot red because of the tears which she was controlling from long. She turned towards Aahil.

"I want divorce, Aahil. We don't have any husband wife relationship then why are we together? We are not meant to be, it's better for us to apart our ways."

Zayna said she wasn't saying this by heart, Aahil looked at with tears filling his eyes. Zayna looked into his mystic eyes in which tears were filled. Their eyes were filled with tears, there were some unsaid words they had to say but none of them wanted to make the first move because of their ego.

Zayna averted her gaze from his eyes, and Aahil scanned her face.

"Zee? Divorce? Are you serious?"

Haris questioned her. Aahil held his hand and signaled him not to say anything further.

"You want divorce? Fine I will give but at one cost until you're perfectly fine you will stay with us till then I will arrange the lawyer and will finish all the paperwork regarding divorce. Do you agree with this?"

Aahil questioned her, Zayna looked at him, she didn't expect this at all. She had thought he would question her why she wants divorce but instead of this he is ready to give it.

He was in an unwanted marriage with you, obviously he is getting a chance to leave, why won't he use it?

Her mind mocked her.

She wiped the corner of her tears and nodded. Aahil looked at her, he hadn't expected this from her.

She deserves someone like her, not you.

His subconscious mocked him.

"I agree with this."

She whispers, is there something fine to begin with?
