#Chapter-14
Zain's pov :
"If you have any such things in your mind then I'll kill you with my own hands. Understand. " my dad wailed in anger.
" Relax Dad! I've no such intentions. I'm just trying to draw their attention towards my feelings for her. Don't worry about it" I assured him.
" I hope you'll not become a bother to me, my son. Get yourself together and be useful to him. I cannot save you from him. You get that?" he warned me once again. I cannot disrespect my father by refusing his plans. Neither I can disrespect that moron.
Rayyan called me as soon as he got my message.
" I don't know man.. She mistook someone else to my friend." he exclaimed.
" Your friend? You mean Saad?" I asked. There is no chance of Ifza meeting Saad. He didn't actually attend the engagement party.
"Yeah...She kept on calling 'Ruhaan'. I guess someone is fooling around with her man." I agree with him on this. Whoever this person is I'll never let him hurt Ifza neither allow him to meddle with my aims.
" Don't worry she have my back." I assured him. Before I hung up the call he teased me for being possessive for her.
I've to find who is this Ruhaan. Ramsh must know about him. I took my phone to call her and all the flashbacks replayed on my mind before I could even unlock my cell.
"Dammit I screwed everything. I shouldn't have done that to Ramsh. What the hell should I do now. " I scold myself.
Next day-
Ifza's pov :
I cried whole night yet my tears doesn't seem to stop at this point. It's already time for the morning prayer. I stood on the prayer rug to cry infront of Almighty and ask him to ease my problems.
My heart sank in sorrow because of him. It's all my fault, I trusted a stranger and ofcourse he turns out to be the one behind my situation. I'll never forgive you Ruhaan.
Who is he? How could he be invisible to others? Why am I the only person seeing him? What's the link between my dreams and him? My dreams only got worse whenever he's near. I'm sure he was the one doing all these things, then why did he pretend to help me out? I HATE YOU RUHAAN! you lied to me.
Tears were rolling down my cheeks. All these thoughts made my head heavy. I didn't realized when my eyes got shut and I've fallen asleep--------
-----*Whispering* I heard a group of people whisper in some other language I'm not aware of. At first when the whisper was low I tried ignoring it. Later on the voices got stronger. I could say that more people were joining the strange recitation every second as I was hearing voice the chores.
It was impossible to ignore the sounds, which made me walk out of my bed to look what was happening. I checked for the time before leaving the room and it was 6am in the morning.
As soon as I stepped out of my room the voices became even more stronger.
" Mom.....? Dad....? " I screamed in fear.
The intensity of the moment was getting worse and tense. With every step of mine, the recitation became louder and sadder. The moment I realized the sound is coming from the terrence, all of them started crying.
" Mo--Momma...? Wh-what's happening? " I cried taking slower steps on staircase. My legs were trembling and my heart was pounding as if it will come out the second I open the door leading to terrence.
" Mommm...(crying)...please....reply!!! " I cried. "Dadd? Where are you? What's happening....? " I called both of them but neither of them were responding my pleas.
I gathered a lot of strength and opened the door, there were bunch of women wearing 'abaya' ( A/N : black robe generally worn by Muslim women to cover themselves from head to toe ).
There were around 10-12 ladies forming a group and crying and rest of the women along with few men were reciting some strange salutations.
" Who are you all? What's happening??? " I started walking towards the group of women crying. A few steps ahead from the group there was someone laying down in 'Janazah' , covered with white shroud. I was standing in a funeral of someone, I couldn't able to see the face as it was coverd.
(A/N : Janazah is a kind of coffin, in which a body is taken to grave to bury underground).
(A/N : the body was inside the box)
My knees were shivering in fear, my palpitating feets didn't had enough energy to go near the 'Janazah' . I started crying aloud, calling my parents out. I scolded my mind for making me think this dead person could be one of my parents.
"Mom....Dad....pl-pleas-e wa-wa-k-e uu-p.. " I cried.
I scolded the people around me to stop crying and kept on asking them who the person in, none of them responded my pleas, my cries.
(Assume Ifza here...XD)
My shivering hands removed the shroud from the face of the dead body. I was taken aback when I saw myself laying down. And now the people stopped crying and reciting salutations. There was moment of silence before all of them started walking towards me pushing me into the 'Janazah'.
"Please stop....!! Pleas--" a strong hand held the grip of my hand and dragged me out of the group, ignoring the people who were pushing me. He dragged me out from the hell. I opened my eyes to have a look at him and he was Ruhaan. Before I could negotiate or argue or pick a fight with him, I collapsed in his hands.
I woke up with a loud gasp. Ramsh was sitting beside me. I immediately hugged her crying. " Shhh!!! Ifzz its okay! It was just a dream" she started whispering in my ear. How does she knew that I had a bad dream? " Do not get involved, if you don't want this to happen in real" her consoling voice got changed into a warning.
I got a mini heart attack when I was unable to see her reflection in the mirror while I was still hugging her. I pushed her away. I was scared to see her eyes, they were completely white, with a red lines of blood under her eyes. Her face was completely pale.
I heard Ruhaan's voice "Ifza!!" Before I could scream for help she was dragged forcefully into the wall.
I hugged him tightly, crying in his arms. At that moment I forgot everything that happened between us last night.
"What happened? You okay?" he murmured when I've thrown myself in his muscular arms.
"She kept on saying 'NOT TO GET INVOLVED' countinously. I don't know who was she, and what should I have to avoid. She....she was terrifyingly white and scary. Blood--she... her eyes were bleeding..." I spoke under my breath, sobbing.
"Shhh!! It's okay! She's gone. You are safe now." he caressed my hairs gently. I felt safe and relaxed under his cold touch.
I froze when the reality came shooking my mind reminding the truth about Ruhaan. I pulled myself away from him. He scanned my whole move with his eyes full of guilt.
" Ifza. Listen to me." he started walking towards me while I was moving backwards.
"Listen to me...." he came a step forward again,taking slower steps.
"do-don't come near me" I pushed my words out of my mouth.
"I will not harm you...trust me" he bent a little down trying to hold my hand. Before his fingers could touch mine I turned towards the door to escape. With in a fraction of seconds he stood right in front of the door.
"Wh-who are you?" I screamed, his intensed eyed were fixed on my tears. He again took a step forward filling the gap between us. " I'll explain you everything, just give me a chance" he said trying to tug my hairs behind my ears.
"Get away from me" I pushed him hard enough to make him stumble. "Do not come near to me" I cried. "please! Just once" he pleaded.
I started throwing the items or things kept around me, so I could signalise my parents to come and help me along with my louder screams. Luckily my dad came rushing when he heard the crashing sounds of things.
" Princess?? What happened? " as soon as he entered the room he gave me tight hug, trying to make me relax, completely unaware of another person standing in my room.
"Da-d" I pointed in the direction of Ruhaan but ofcourse my dad could not see anything besides window, which was behind him.
" You need my help Ifza. Trust me, I'll help you. I'll explain everything to you, I promise. If you want to talk then come to the park. I'll be waiting" he said and disappeared into the thin air.
"What happened princess?" Dad was worried because I was crying without uttering anything.
"Nothing dad, I thought I saw someone near the window" I lied. "a thief maybe" I added trying to convince him. He laughed at my childish behavior. Ofcourse why would a thief come in the morning.
I tried ignoring the facts about today's incidents which was not the dream for sure. I texted Ramsh to discuss but she didn't replied neither answered my calls. She must be pissed because of Zain's behavior last night.
I can't ask Zain's help. Firstly he'll never allow me to do any act under his supervision and secondly he'll definitely informs everyone about these weird things.
Only Ruhaan could help me thoroughly. I have to ask him. The fact him being invisible and his inhumanly behavior scaring the hell out of me. If I don't ask him then these dreams will definitely gonna end me. No. I have to take this risk. I will ask him.
"I'm Ifza Zafar! I'm not scared of anyone. I have to be brave and strong. No one can break my strength. I'll meet you Ruhaan. I definitely will." I mumbled to myself.
