Yesterday was surprisingly spent better than I expected... No it's not like I have accepted my marriage, no I still haven't and don't think I ever could, cause I don't believe in that shit. Why a person can't spent his all life alone without screwing some other person's life to by marrying them. My father died, when we were too young.. If he wouldn't have married my Mom and have three kids, Mom's life would have been so much better..

I have seen her struggling and fighting with every one around, just to raise her children.. She was a helpless Women without a husband by her side, She have to work day and night just to give us the life we deserves as Nawab's Kids.. Working hard she also managed raising all of us on her own.. Yes, we weren't raised by a servant or a Nanny.. we were raised by our mother.. She was always there to attend our smallest functions in school, she was there to celebrate our every achievement regardless how small it was..

But Life would have been different to her if Dad was with her side, I was too attached to my Father that his death left me in trauma for several days.. But the pain that my Mom has gone through, she couldn't even mourn properly cause she had kids to take care of.. That's the reason I never wanted to put a women in such place and not Zoya at least.. She was too fragile to be left alone in this world, if something happened to me.. The one thing that I realized on this trip was, that I didn't hate her.. I cannot bring myself to do that.. She is a harmless and selfless girl.. First taking care of Rehana and doing her job cause she was sick and then taking pictures of that couple so that they can capture their happy moments together.

I could see the look in her eyes when she watched that couple enjoying each other's company and I know she craved the same but I was too caught up with my own Demons to do anything about it.. It's better she is scared of me and I doubt now she will hardly try giving this wedding a chance. Cause that's what is better for both of us and for our peace of mind.. Mine at least.

Today also I was taking her out, Rehana was feeling better so she came back at work and I don't want her to spill any more happenings to Mom.. So it's better to take zoya out and honestly Yesterday was quite okay so I don't think there is any harm.. Also Even if she wear Hijab and cover herself in a modest clothing that is a good thing right.. Cause I can't imagine my sister wearing something, the girls I hang out with wore and roam outside with someone like me. Okay stop that thought right there Asad, so yes even if she cover herself fully, I must admit she style herself really good.. I mean she doesn't look like a desi Aunty or something, she look quite younger and smart in her clothing..

The moment my eyes fell on her, I sighed.. She never fails to surprise me.. Clad in a green oversized jacket and jeans with snicker and Hijab covering her hair, she looked as fresh as daisy.. I wish I could get a look of those hair again.. I mean they were so long and so smooth, I really wanted to touch.. "Rehana we are heading out.." I informed the housekeeper and with that we both rode off in my car.. The happiness on her face while looking outside confirms how much she enjoys nature.. My lips curved up a bit in a small smile.

I was tired roaming around and now my stomach was just crying for some good food.. But I don't know how to ask my husband that, what if he gets angry or something. Well come on Zoya he is not crazy to get angry on such thing and also he is behaving quite okay with you since yesterday.. Of course we are not getting all buddy buddy with each other but at least he isn't snapping or shouting at me. That's a positive thing right.. My stomach growled again and I decided enough of being a coward so I stopped walking and the moment Asad realized I am not following him anymore he turned around frowning at my sudden change of mood..

"I am hungry, I am not walking anymore without filling myself up.." I said a bit afraid of his reaction but pouting nonetheless what? A girl got to eat. But my eyes widen a bit when I catch a guilty expression on his face that stayed there just for few seconds.. What did he felt bad for not asking me for lunch Aww.... "We have to walk a bit, there is a restaurant down there it serves great food and our car is parked there any way.." With that he turned around and started moving with me following behind with a bright smile..

Sure there was a great restaurant that looked upto his standard.. I snorted at that, he couldn't settle for anything less.. We came inside and the cozy atmosphere actually made me feel a bit delighted.. We took our seats in a far corner with a good view of outside.. I immediately placed my order and waited patiently for our food to arrive, Asad was busy in checking his cellphone while I sat there quietly but a sudden known voice rang in my ear turning off my mood completely. "Asad sweetie what are you doing here?" I looked up to find the same lady from our reception what was her name again? forget it, what the hell is she doing here? I look over my husband who looked quite shocked himself..

"Hello Sonya.." He gave her a hesitant smile looking briefly at me and here goes my happy mood.. A scowl was set up on my face and my husband was well aware of it.. "Oh I came here with some friends, you know them, they are back at the hotel and will be delighted to see you.. Raahil, Lubna and Zaqi.." Am I Mr. India that she can't see me sitting right here.. Ya Allah, I am not liking her presence here even for a bit.. I cleared my throat and she immediately glance in my direction with not so much of a smile let me add.. "Oh!! so you are here with your wife How are you Zarina?" And I feel like emptying this jug full of water on her head..

"It's Zoya actually.." Nops, not me but my husband corrected it for her making the lady a bit shocked.. Huunn!! Take it you witch!! "Well Yeah nice to meet you again.. Can I join you gyz? Well why am I even asking, ofcourse you won't mind.." And with that she self invited herself to sit with us making my appetite die... Just like last time she ignored my presence and got herself involve in a conversation with Asad.. I hardly have my food.. Things were going fine but then she has to come and ruin it.. Why Allah why though?

"So What say come with me to meet others?" She asked once we were done with food and came outside the restaurant.. Can't she leave us alone.. Asad looked at me while I let my eyes glued to the floor.. "Oh!! you can drop her back and then come find us?" When he didn't said anything she pulled her puppy eyes that looked hideous on her.. "Please Asad please don't say no pleaseeee...." She exaggerated making me cringe at her fake cute expressions. Asad just nodded his head and before he could lunge herself on my Husband in front of my eyes, I quietly made my way back towards his car..

The ride back home was silent and I could feel the tension in the air but neither he explained himself and nor did I asked anything.. How could I? when he has not given any rights to me.. My heart sank but I composed myself, can't let him show how weak and pathetic I am.. The moment he stopped the car in front of the cottage, I stepped out and ran inside the house without looking back and only stopped inside my room closing the door behind me.. I finally let my tears fall, making me realize this path that I have chosen for myself to walk wasn't going to be easy at all...
