Met by Destiny

CHAPTER 21- CHANGE? BUT HOW?~ Ayesha💕

Unable to watch him do that I spoke,
"Don't do that."

He looked at me as if snapped out of his trance and he glanced at me then back at the road before asking,

"Don't do what?"

I moved forward catching my seat belt so I reach his hands and tapped on it,

"Your wounds will open, if you don't stop dou that." My fingers caress his knuckles airily, only the distance I can reach provided by the seat belt around me, his hands loosen it's grip and I slump back on my seat.

"Those aren't deep." he said after few moments.

"But it will if you keep applying pressure on it." I said and after that he merely gave me a glance before looking ahead.

I had so many things to ask him, say him, but nothing came on my tongue. Trying to break the eerie silence of the car I spoke,

"Sakina said you saved my friends, how?" I was really curious about it.

"She was exaggerating saying 'saved.' I just saw them kneeling behind a shop reception and showed them the exit." He takes a right turn, glancing at me, "I didn't even spoke, just pointed my hand towards the exit."

"Well, you still kind of helped them, and knowing Sania, she would be grateful for you for a lifetime." I sigh leaning my head on the backrest.

His phone rang silencing the tense atmosphere, he glanced at it and muted his phone.

"Who?" I ask tucking my feet up.

"My secretary in office." He exhales, "probably wanting to include what happened after I left office."

Seeing his phone, I sat upright and looked around me for my phone and purse. Only to remember they both are probably laying in a janitor's closet.

I slump back groaning under my breath, "I lost my phone." I sulk covering my face, "And my bag."

"I will get you a new one." I remove my hands from my face to look at my husband. "Your phone was damaged anyway. It's good you finally lost it."

"But I loved my phone." I whined.

He glanced at me again before shaking his head and stopping the car in front of a pharmacy. "It's okay, love another one."

He removes his seatbelt and picks up the prescription from the centre console, "I will be back. Stay here."

I watch him walking towards the pharmacy and entering it, leaving me to sulk alone. What a prick.

A helpful prick?

I exhale keeping my head on the window and close my eyes, my whole body was aching from being cramped up and exhaustion seeping through every pore.

I straight my legs out and looked around me, really missing my phone, atleast it helped me kill time.

My eyes landed on the steering wheel, seeing the company logo on it, it clicked me this was the car I used, when I went to meet-

My biggest mistake.

I stare ahead looking through the transparent doors of the store, my husband standing against the counter as the pharmacist read the prescription.
