Isha's POV,

I sat on the soft sofa. My eyes were wide wandering here and there. This house or should say mansion, It's so beautiful. I look so out of place. I was feeling anxious.

I tried to deny that woman that she doesn't have to do this but that woman practically forced me. Saying she can't abandon me like this and God forbid if something happens to me then Allah will never forgive her. And when I thought about it I agreed. I saw how this world behaves with a lonely girl. If that woman wasn't there then I would've been ended up in jail. I shudder with that thought.

She said she needs someone to take care of her. And in the end, I agreed. I was feeling some kind of fear the moment I saw how rich and wealthy she was. Her mansion says it.

"What the hell!" I heard someone's yelled making me startled. Standing up I turn to the door only to my heartbeat skips and breath hitched. My eyes widened seeing Arshad here. He almost ran inside with a panic face. "What are you doing..." Before he could say something I whisper yelled.

"Ap..aap yaha kya kar rahe hai?.. Aap mera picha kyun kar rahe hai? please jaien yaha se isse pehle koi apko dekhle (What are you doing here? Why are you stalking me? Please go away from here before anyone sees you)" his eyes widened and mouth slightly open. I was scared if that aunty throws me out of this house after knowing I was married but my husband refused to accept me then where will I go?

"Isha you..." Before he could say anything a voice stops him.

"Arshad" I heard a voice from my behind and turn around and saw Aunty walking toward us. I panic. But not only me but Arshad too.

"Amma jaan she...."

"She is isha" Aunty informed him. As if he didn't know... Ek second but how she knew his name? And why he called her amma jaan? "Isha beta he is my son" my already widened eyes wide even more. Stomach churn.

Unintentionally I came to Arshad house! Ya khudaya! My heart started trembling. And sweat form on my forehead and hands.

"You brought her here?" Arshad asked which aunty nodded smiling.

"Where were you, Arshad?" We heard a voice and then a very pretty woman walks into the living room. She was very pretty. She was wearing jeans and a top with a scarf around her neck with very much suitable make-up. her make up didn't look too much on her face nor it looks too less. I mean its perfect. She was perfect. "Who is she?" She asked looking at me.

"She is isha. And isha, she is sofia. Arshad's wife" as the word came out of her mouth I felt stang pain in my chest. I was in front of my husband's first wife. Ya khudya! No, I can't be here. I can't even look her in the eyes.

"I wanted to give you, your wedding gift so I went to...." And then aunty narrated everything which had happened there. And about how I ran away from my village.

"Jubail was going to arrest this innocent girl, she didn't even know how to defend herself. Allah ka shukar hai I reach there in time and stop them from doing anything wrong" she finished I lifted my head and saw Arshad glaring at me I again look down in fear.

"Oh okay but why you brought her here Amma jaan?" That woman asked.

"She will be staying here with us. I was already searching for someone to take care of me. And I was glad that I found her. In this arrangement, she will get shelter and I will get someone to take care of me. So we both are in benefits" Aunty replied.

"Aun...aunty... I think I should go.. I will find somewhere to live please you don't need to worry" I said in hurry tone.

"No, you're not going anywhere" my headshot up to Arshad. Both other women also look at him. "I mean, Amma jaan need you. And you need our support. She is right it will benefit both of you. You can't survive here all alone. This city is dangerous for an alone girl. if Amma jaan didn't save you then you will probably be in jail by now" he directly interacts with me while my eyes were on the floor.

"See, my son is too smart and soft-hearted," his mother said proudly smiling at him.

"Yeah...she can live here with Amma jaan. And will also help for kubra bi as she has 4 years son to take care of as well" Arshad's wife- first wife said. "Kubara bi!" She yelled and a middle-aged woman come. "She is the new maid show her room in the servant cottage" she's said. My gaze was still down.

"She is not a maid, sofia" Arshad's suddenly said. "I mean.. Amma jaan brought her here to take care of her, not for a maid job and she will stay in the house no need for her to stay backside of the house," he said. His voice held the authority.

"But Arshad we don't have a spare room for her. We have only two guest rooms and our guest often visit here" sofia reason

"She will stay in my room" my head snaps toward him and eyes widened. He saw my expression and quickly added "In my old room. No one stays in that room anyway after our marriage cause you found it small for us. So she can stay there as it will be easy for her to do everything
Amma jaan will say in time"

"Yes beta you're right. She can stay there. Kubra comes with me. I will open that room, please clean for isha" His amma jaan said and kubra bi smile nodding her head as they both walk away.

"If everything is done then can we go to my parents? They were requesting us to visit them."

"Okay... When are we going?" He asked looking at his wife.

"Now. I will get ready then we will go" she said and he nodded before she walks away.

I grabbed my bag and held my suitcase and turn to go.

"Where are you going?" He asked I didn't stop and began walking. "Isha stop" suddenly he come in front of me. "Kaha jaari ho tum (where are you going?)?" He asked glaring.

"Please mujhe jaane dijye. Mai nahi reh sakti yaha (please let me go. I can't live here)" I said looking at the floor.

"Han. Thik hai jao. Aut is bar sidhe jail mai jakar baith jana (okay. Fine, go. And this time directly go to the jail)" I shudder and look up at him. "Aise kya dekh rahi ho. Yahi to hone wala tha na, tumhari bewaqoofi ki wajah se. Tumhe andaza bhi hai, tumhare sath kya ho sakta tha agar Amma jaan waha nahi hoti to? (What are you staring? This was going to happen because of your stupidity. Do you have any idea what could have happen to you if Amma jaan wasn't there?)" He scolded me I kept my gaze on the floor.

"You should talk to me before taking a step like this. The whole day I and Adil were searching for you. Accept it or not. But you're my responsibility isha." I lifted my gaze at this.

"I don't want to burden you," I said quietly.

"This was not your choice isha, neither mine. But the truth is Allah has chosen me to give your responsibility. If something happens to you then I will be the one to blame. Hashr ke din mujhe, khuda ko jawab dena hoga (in the judgment day I have to answer lord)" he said his eyes showing sincerity.

"I...I can't..."

"But you have to... Your not burden isha. You are my responsibility. You... you're in my nikah. I can't abandon you."

"But what about your family. Your wife? No, please! I can't destroy this family. First, you saved and then your amma jaan. I can't ruin your family" I said shaking my head as the tears rolling down.

"I'm relief that you think like this. I'm relieved that you're not going to tell anyone"

"But what if they find out?"

"Who will tell them? You or me?" He asked. I stared at him before again lowering my head.

"You know Allah is with us. Honestly, I was so scared and couldn't think how I will take care of you. But see Allah make this easy for us. Now you can stay at my house safe and sound. And I don't have to worry about your safety anymore... It was meant to happen. You, in my house" he said and I heard him sigh. I know he was stressed but he was trying to make this manageable for me.

He was right this was all Allah's plans. If we were not mean to be then we wouldn't be married and I wouldn't be in his house.

"So, promise me you won't run away like that again?" He asked. I nodded.

"I promise" I mumble.

We were stood there for a few minutes in silence before sofia come.

"Let's go" she held Arshad's arms and said with a smile. She looks pretty in beautiful kurta and jeans. Her hair was open making and she wore some makeup. Which suits her greatly. I was mesmerized by her beauty.

Arshad smile looking at her I could see the love he has for her.

"Bye," sofia said to me with a soft smile.

"Khuda hafiz" I replied. Arshad glance at me and then they both walk out of the house.

I felt something bad.

********

Arshad's POV,

"When are you both planning to going back?" Sofia's mother asked as we were all sitting in the lawn after our dinner.

"Soon mom, maybe in a couple of weeks," sofia said looking at me.

"Yeah, we need to go. I have my business there and I can't stay here for long" I said.

"I will really miss you api and jiju." Fariya, Sofia's sister said pouting.

"Oh, please don't waste your time on missing us and focus on your medical studies cause sofia and I won't miss you" I tease she huff pouting. She was a 20 years old girl and was studying in medical school.

We talk for sometimes before we said our bid and drove to my home.

"Let's eat ice cream," I asked while driving.

"I'm on dieting baby, I can't" she pouted making me chuckled.

"One time won't hurt"

"You know I don't compromise and I have a show next month," she said and I nodded.

Sofia was an independent woman. She was a successful designer and certainly, her career was her first priority. I was happy for her.

We reached home and greeted my mother and 2 younger brothers. I had 2 brothers, Asam 22 years and Amar 20 years.

"Bhai we were waiting for you," Asam said walking toward me.

"And why so?" I asked sitting beside Amma jaan after pecking her head.

"You said you will give me a new spot car. Now, where is my car?" Amar said.

"No! First give me permission for a world tour. And your card" Asam said grinning.

"Stop you, morons. Always demanding" Amma jaan scolded them shaking her head. They pouted like a small kid making me chuckled.

"This is their age Amma jaan. Let them enjoy" I favoured, looking at my little brothers who beam in happiness. For them, I was always a father figure as we lost our father at a very young age.

"Sofia you should stop them. Arshad is spoiling them"

"Then let him spoil Amma jaan. It's their rights" sofia said giving high-five to them.

"Yeah! That's our Bhabi" They both beam. We laugh while Amma jaan glared at us but with a small smile.

"Bhai bhai! Have you seen that little girl Amma jaan has brought today?" Suddenly Amar asked. My body stiffens when I remembered about Isha. I could only manage to nod. "Isn't she cute and beautiful?" I shifted on my place feeling uncomfortable.

"Amar she is a kid," sofia said with teasing smile. Amar smiled back innocently.

I stood up and walk toward my room after saying good night to all of them.
