Fariya's feet moved robotically, her mind too shocked to even protest. When she came back to her senses, she realized Zaid was dragging her outside of the house. She immediately yanked her hand from his hold.
"Ye aap kya kar rahe hai!?" Zaid flinched at her loud tone, yet stood stoned.
[What are you doing?]
"Aap mujh se puch Rahi hai? Apko pata hai aap kya kar rahi hai?" He turned to her and asked bewildered.
[You are asking me? Do you know what you are doing?]
His heart ached at her ignorant behavior. How could she marry someone else when she has been engaged to him? How could she betray him like this?
"Mujhe achi tarah pata hai mein kya kar rahi hu!" Fariya stated feircely.
[I very well know what I'm doing!]
She couldn't understand what this man had for her. All she knew was that this marriage would end all the miseries of her family and Zaid's existence in her life would only cause chaos. She needed to be away from him.
"Fariya, aap meri mangetar hai! Aap kaise kisi or se shaadi kar sakti hai!?" Zaid was dumbfounded at the lack of any remorse in her eyes. Instead of any guilt, she portrayed irritation which broke him.
[Fariya, You're my fiancee! How can you go and marry someone else?]
"Kaisi mangetar? Apko toh mujhe apni ek cheez kehna chahiye! Khareeda Jo hai apne mujhe!" The words left a bitter taste in her mouth and her eyes burned with tears. She hated how he humiliated her.
[What fiancee? You should call me a possession of yours! After all, you purchased me]
Zaid's heart fell at her words. He never thought his act would come and bite him like that. He only wanted her. "Fariya aisa kuch nahi hai... Maine sirf apke liye kya hai"
[It is nothing like that... I did all of that for you]
"Mere liye? Apko andaza hai apki ye harkat se kitna bada tamasha khada hua hai? Kya nahi hua hai is Ghar Mai? Mana kardiya tha na Maami ne! Kyu samjh nahi ati apko ye baat ke mai apse shaadi nahi kar sakti!" Fariya asked harshly finally confronting the man of her nightmares. Finally letting out her heart. What was her fault?
[For me? Do have any idea about the kind of scene that was created due to this deed of yours? What didn't even happen in this house? My aunt rejected you, right? Why can't you understand the fact that I can't marry you!?]
"Maine sirf tumhe chaha hai, Fariya" Zaid's eyes were moistening and he was doing everything in his power to stop his tears. "Jo bhi kya sirf tumhare liye kya hai"
[I only loved you Fariya—Whatever I did, I did it for you]
Fariya took a step back refusing to believe his words. The events took a toll on her health to the point she couldn't take anymore.
She joins her hands in front of him, making his eyes wide. He shook his head frantically and tried to lower her hands but Fariya was adamant. "Mera peecha chod dijiye. Agar aap sach mai mujhe chahte hai toh please, Yahan se chale Jaye or meri zindagi aasan kar dijiye"
[Please leave me alone. If you love me then please, leave here and make my life easier]
"Fariya... Please. Kuch bhi par ye nahi" Zaid pleaded.
[Fariya...Please. Anything but not this]
"Chaha hai na mujhe? " He nodded.
[You loved me right?]
