Shh... He's My Husband (Completed)

nineteen

He was yelling between the punches until I fell on the floor coughing and spitting blood as the end as he kicked me in my guts. I didn't had the strength to get up nor the will to retaliate because whatever he was doing to me.... I deserved it all.

He screamed pulling at his hair.
"WHAT DID SHE EVER DO TO YOU!"

His voice cracked as again he broke down crying pushing my head.
"My baby sister....what did she ever do to deserve everyone's hatred towards her? She's always been quitely bearing with everything, she became shy and distant.... everyone took advantage of her innocence.... everyone hurted her...why? What's soo terrible about her? She's soo precious and kind, so delicate and fragile hearted that everyone kept trampling all over my baccha, yet, she took it all with a smile.
Then you came back.... her soo called husband and crushed her completely! A husband is supposed to be a protector, a maintainer and lover of his wife! To cherish her and make her life beautiful and meaningful. How could you be the monster to drive her to the point to losing all meaning to her life?!"

He kicked me again and again as my body was spasming on the cold floor.

He was right about everything. I didn't just fail her as her husband... I even failed as a human being. He kept kicking and kicking while my body was losing strength until, I heard a pair of heavy footsteps running towards us.

"Mazhar! Stop it Mazhar you'll kill him!"

"No Arsh! Leave me, I'll really kill him today. He's the one who did that to my sister. He need to pay! Leave me!!!"
I struggled through the pain to look up and saw the blurry image of a guy around bhai's age trying to hold him back while Mazhar bhai was struggling like a wounded animal to tear apart his prey.

"Mazhar snap out of it. We're in a hospital and there are police here. We can all get in trouble!"

"Police? That's right, call them and tell them to arrest this bastard for driving my sister to suicide. Send him behind bars or else I'll send him to his grave."
He was still grunting advancing towards me in his blinding rage but the other guy kept holding him back with much difficulty.

However, I couldn't pay attention to them as my whole body was in pain as I wriggled on the floor. Even that Arsh guy wasn't ready to even look at me either.

"Stop it Mazhar! That's enough!"

I recognised that voice. It was Meher's mother.

Your own mother hates you for such a stupid reason....
She never wanted you....

I even said such things to her. Why?

"Why Mumma? He's the one who did that to your daughter!" He raged.

"No.... she did that to herself!"

We all watched her in disbelief.

"Mumma.... your daughter...our Meher is swinging between life and death. Anytime the doctor might come and say the most dreaded thing and you....you still want to protect him? Why? Are you happy that Meher is...."

"Enough!" She looked down at me.
"You've punished him enough. Now stop this. No one will say anything to the police and no one will make this into a bigger issue."

Hearing her words, Mazhar bhai was laughing without any humour. He covered his eyes but I could see the tears falling from his eyes.
"No one cares for my sister...NO ONE! Fine then...have it your way. You all can go to hell. Neither of you wants my Meher in their lives huh? Fine then...have it your way. I'll be the only one for her then....her brother."
He passed a deadly glare through all of us present.
"I won't let anyone be even around my sister anymore and we don't need anyone else!" He announced and stormed away leaving us all in shock.
