my endless love

the little reunion

Amal's pov

I let the water run down on my body clearing off the dirt and stink of the past week.
Tears slipped through my eyes vanishing into the running water off my face

I winced momentarily as the hot water touched my wounds
as I recalled the tortures I broke into sobs

I placed my forehead on the cool tile clad wall

I am done ya allah
I am done

I let myself fall on the floor still resting my forehead on the wall

I sobbed until I heard a loud banging on the door I flinched involuntarily

"do you plan to sleep in there you dumb woman?" arham yelled from the other side of the door

getting up hurridly I turned off the shower and wrapped the towel around my body and stepped out

before I could comprehend anything I was being carried on arhams shoulder and thrown on the bed

"let's make babies now!!" he grinned looking at me with a glint of mischief in his eyes

if he was a normal husband this gesture would have made me giggle with excitement but sadly nor is he normal neither I am giggling with excitement instead I am just bracing myself for another session of torture for the nth time since I got married...
I should have gotten used to the rape or forced raid of my body, but I am not,

it still humiliates me,

breaks me and my self esteem to a point where I am numb by the end of it.

later at the afternoon....

I was kneading the dough to make rotis but it was not a simple task since everytime I pressured my body to knead the dough the wounds on my skin stretched making me feel slow "bearable" pain which is also a torture.

I heard some voices in the living room as I peeked from the kitchen I saw Ahmed bhai sitting on the sofa talking to arham

I tried to hear the conversation but I couldnt
I smelled something burning and ran towards the stove and got busy cooking,

I was about to go into the living room when arham entered the kitchen

"I stopped Ahmed for lunch....go set the dining table" he ordered

I nodded

after he left I sighed

"I was hungry"
I threw the apron at the counter frustratingly

I set the food on the dining table and looked towards arham who was busy talking with ahmed bhai

I didnt knew what to do
I didnt if I was allowed to come infront of ahmed bhai

after much thought I went behind the shelf/ partition between kitchen and dining room and called arham

he walked into the kitchen
"food is on the table" I said

"am I supposed to serve it myself?" he asked mockingly

"I thought you wont like it if I came infront of ahmed bhai"

he chuckled
"so sweet...you are finally starting to behave how you are supposed to" he said pulling my cheeks

he put his arm around my neck as if I am his best guy freind
I tried to hide my irritation

"but you are not supposed to think...first thing and second Is ahmed is family you can even talk to him" with that he began dragging me towards dining room his arm still around my neck playfully
