Shanaya's POV:

Snuggling into my pillow, trying to get comfortable I rest my head on it. Moments later I noticed that my head was moving slightly up and down, and I slowly opened my eyes, furrowning. My pillow is breathing? I looked beneath my head and shut my eyes tightly.

Why do I keep doing this?! Scolding myself inwardly I moved upwards slowly. I stared at Hussain's face. He was sleeping peacefully and then my eyes settled on my hand. My fingers were interwined with his, while his other hand was wrapped around my waist, my breaths came out heavy as I tried not t. I slowly pulled my hand out of his wake up him ans make everything more awkward. I tried moving away completely again. As I sat up a little, his hand slipped from me and he suddenly gasped, startling me. He tightened his grip around my waist, pulling me into him. I land on his chest with a gasped. He furrowned and looked at me. I raised my head and stared back at him. His eyes got normal back from widened when he looked at me, a small smile came onto his lips for a moment but faded and concern flashed in his eyes.

"Did I hurt you? I am sorry- I felt like, like you were slipping away." He explained, worriedly and I shook my head, a small slight smile making it way to my lips. Slightly.

How do he make me smile so easily.

"I was trying to get up." I replied and he chuckled, his chest vibrating as I pull myself up and moved away. He removed his hand from around me, allowing me to get out of the bed.

"Tum mujhe jaga sakhti thi." He said, turning on his side as he positioned his right arm up, leaning his face on his palm. I merely shrugged and walked upto dressing table.

"Din't wanted to disturb." I said and heard bed sheets shuffling behind me. Hussain walked up behind me and ran hands through his hair. I watched him in mirror. No trace of smile on his face. His face was totally serious and I furrowned.

"Shanaya..." he started. I turned around and looked at him. He sighed and took a step closer.

"Kal...kya hua tha?" He asked blantly and my heart beats increased again. Should I tell him about Shehryar? I thought to myself. I lowered my gaze and stared at my hands. It will be wrong if I dint tell him. I decided, but I still felt nervous about this. What if he thinks that I was with him at his back and I was cheating on him?! My inner voice snapped and I felt my heart heavy as if I am the liar here. I shouldn't keep thing from him. No matter how the situation is. He is my husband and I can't meet Shehryar or anyone behind his back. It sounds so wrong!

"Shanaya..."

"Shehryar is here." I blurted out and his eyebrows raised while his eyes widened. He is shock. Yup he dint knew. A pang of guilt hit me as I processed what happened yesterday in my mind. I was with Shehryar behind my husband's back. The thought making shivers run through me.

"H-he is here?" He questioned and I nodded. He looked away and then back at me. He rolled his tongue over his lower lip and looked down at tiles.

I stared at him quietly. Awkwardly. He stared the tiles intently, as if deep in thought and then looked at me again.

"W-what did he say?" He asked and I felt my eyes burning with tears. I tried blinking them back. Hussain furrowned and then shut his eyes and his jaw clenched.

"That he w-was confused." I replied, stuttering and tried to gulped down the lumb in my throat. I can't believe he did this. I felt myself again in disbelief. Never ever have I thought that Shehryar ran, cause he was just...Confused. Hussain opened his eyes and furrowned.

"What? He just said that?" He asked in disbelief and I nodded. His furrowned deepened as his expressions hardened.

"Is he freaking serious?!" He whispered and I saw as his jaw worked. He open and close his fists as he looked left to right. He was angry. This is the first time I am seeing Hussain, this angry. He raised his eyes and met mine. He blinked twice before his eyes softened and I looked down. He took a step closer and suprisingly I dint took a step back. I dint realized I was crying till Hussain raised his hand and wipe my tears with his thumb.
