Mohabbat ✔

Chapter 34 - Love And Hatred

"There's no case filed against your brother. He is being keep under personal custody, in a special place for such cases...where you can do nothing about it to get him out of here." Qadir suddenly said as if he read my mind and my feet halted all of sudden in shock. I was numb and confused hearing him.

"What??" I questioned out uncontrollably and he sighed heavily, stopped walking as he turned towards me.

"Mujhe lagta hai...aapke bhai ne kisi bade aadmi se panga le liya hai. Iss liye woh logon ne unhein yahan rakha hai." He told looking at my face and suddenly Hawa's father crossed my mind though I haven't seen him yet. A sudden rage boiled in me, caused me to fist my hands to suppress it.

"Someone rich and powerful might have ordered to keep your brother here. No one can do anything if somebody was brought here. Not even the courts, lawyers...because there's no case filed against him. Samajh lijiye ki....he's arrested illegally." He added flatly as if he had no emotions while saying this or maybe he was in so much anger that it covered up his feelings, I don't know.

"Aap unn se mil sakte hain lekin unhein bahar nahi nikal sakte...itna aasan nahi hai." He told and my eyes went wide looking at him in disbelief.

"Then how do I get him out of here??" I asked more to myself.

Ya Allah, where have I put Shehryaar in?!

"Find out who wants him here and do whatever you can to get him out of here. Nahi toh, bohat bura hoga aapke bhai ke saath...yeh log unn ke saath kuch bhi kar sakte hain." His voice wavered as he spoke the last sentence and it shivered me deep down.

"Please mujhe Shehry ke pass le jaiye." I spoke, running my slightly watery eyes on him and he sighed heavily while nodding his head.

"Aaiye." He said lowly and continued walking again until he stopped in front of a cell.

"He's in here." He told as he unlocked the cell and opened the gate for me.

I looked at him for a moment before I stepped in as he waited for me outside.

The room was so dark with only one light-bulb hanging on the ceiling and a small window bars, lighting the room slightly. My heart skipped a beat looking at the room and it was damn quiet that I could feel my pulse rate imcreased as a sweat bead rolled down behind my ear.

I roved my eyes around the room, looking for Shehryaar when suddenly my eyes stopped upon finding him lying motionlessly on the cold floor and my heart literally took a pause from beating.

"Shehry!!" I gasped aloud looking at him with eyes wide and quickly ran towards him before I fell over my knees in front of him.

"Shehry!! Shehry utho! Are you okay??" I panicked as I held his head and lifted it up before I put it on my lap.

"Shehry!!" I patted his cheek in order to wake him up but I failed when he didn't even move an inch. My chest heaved up and I felt my heart was jolting inside as I trailed my eyes on him. My breath almost caught up in my throat when my gaze dropped on his bruises on his face and I slowly lowered my eyes to his body. His vest was coated in blood and there were more bruises on his arms.

"Shehry..." A tear rolled down my eye, fell on his cheek as I raised my shivering hand and cautiously landed it on his face.

"Utho!!" I cried uncontrollably as I shook him, it ached me so much seeing him like this.

"Ch!" He suddenly quivered and I froze for a millisecond looking at him.

"Shehry?" I shook him again after wiping my tears and his closed eyelids moved very slowly before it crinkled.
