   Shehnaaz was hanging out in garden of Pir Jo Goth haveli. She has officially missed her exams, she knew she would be missing them when she decided to fly back sukkur to see her husband. She doesn't regret that at all, her exams are surely important but he's more, she can redo year it's not big deal

    Dadi-jaan seems awfully happy and cheerful about girl failing to give her semester exams and now she think Shehnaaz won't be continuing her studies anymore and will just be stay in wife for their Gaddi-nasheen. Huh jokes on her but Shehnaaz didn't tell anything  to her. Dadi-jaan can be delighted about it until she can

    She saw dada-jaan making his way towards her with stern expressions. Shawl wrapped around him properly, she hasn't encountered him again after hers and Sidharth's divorce conversation which was like weeks ago

"Asalam-o-alaikum" She greeted

"Walaikumsalam" He replied facing tress she was looking at for long. He pulled chair that was beside tress and set down while signalling her to sit as well on other chair

"Kesi ho?" He asked

"Mein theek hoon ap kese ho? Is your health better now?" She asked, she can tell he's getting better by the way he's looking fresh

"Tabiyat toh theek he lag rahi hai" Smile spread on his face making her smile as well. There was silent for while which dada-jaan broke by asking about her marriage

"Koi masail shaadi mein?" He asked but he was kinda sure there are non because he has been talking to Sidharth who doesn't look depressed and distant  like before when had separation. He was very much bothered to see someone like sidharth being that much effected

"Umm...nahi" She shook her head cutely even toh she felt little embarrassed that he had to ask that because of history of their Nikkah has been rocky since day one

"Tum mein zid bikul Aliya ki tarha hai tumhe dekh kar esa lagta hai ke jese wo samne ho" His eyes has little sadness in them as he spoke about her. She finds this chance to ask him more since he has taken her name second time

"Ap muma ko kese jante the?" She asked and watched elder man take deep sigh

"Aliya ka legal guardian tha mein" He revealed which surprised her, she knew that her mother's parents were dead but she didn't know that he was her guardian "Uske father humari Lahore wali branch mein kaam krte the aur mere kafi ache dost the jab unka inteqal hua car accident mein apni wife ke sath toh mene Aliya ki responsibility li thi kyun ke unka koi rishtedar nahi tha" He explained her after registering confusion on her face

"Wo humare sath yahan pe kuch saal rahi bhi thi uski kaafi banti thi Zain ki maa ke sath" This piece of information hurt Shehnaaz

"P-phir unhone ap logo ko betray kiya baba se Nikkah kar ke" She said in cracked voice feelinv lump in her throat. Dada-jaan looked at her feeling pity for young girl

"Your father is equal at fault" Dada-jaan spoke "He had two kids and wife" He sighed

"Agar mein is haal mein nahi hota aj toh tumhare baap ko jaan se mardete kyun ke humare khandan mein bewafai aur dhoka ek crime hai and you are their child" He spoke those words bitterly, her heart dropped hearing him say that about her father. No matter what she loves him, she always will

"Why do I have to suffer their consequences? Mein logo ki nafrat kyun sahu? Apke log mureed mujhe bilkul pasnad nahi krte unko bas mein ek galti lagti hoon" She opened her heart in front of him and told her

"Mein jaanta hoon lekin tumhe kabhi kisi ne kuch kaha hai?" He asked, she shook her head

"Kahen ge bhi nahi you have no idea how many people came to beg me ke yeh Nikkah na hone dou mein lekin your husband threatened them all and told them loud and clear ke He's the one on throne and she's gonna be his wife if they like it or not" Dada-jaan said and noticed change of expression on her face

"Don't be ungrateful beta" He advised her

"I-I"

    She open her mouth to protest and say she's not but she has been ungrateful with Sidharth so she shut it back. She shifted her eyes on her husband who just got out of dressed in navy blue shalwar kameez and sunglasses. She looked at dada-jaan and before she could even open her mouth he spoke

"Haan Haan jao beta" He smiled understanding

   she also smiled getting up from there and rushing towards him who glanced in her way before looking ahead. Yes he's still upset with her even after railing her other night, taking her ability to walk for whole day just to behave like asshole in morning. She's not blaming him okay he did warn her

"Asalam-o-alaikum" She greeted sweetly and waved at Azhar who was standing with him. He send her nod of acknowledgment

"Walaikumsalam" Sidharth replied

"Kesa tha apka din?" She asked batting her lashes at him. He removed his sunglasses while walking inside with her following him

"Theek." He replied

"Lunch khaya hai apne?" She walked faster to catch up with him. He hummed to much her disappointment she was waiting for them to have it together

"Kitne din rehna hai tumhe yahan?" His tone cold like before as he gets inside room and takes seat on couch

"Tang agaye ho ap mujhse?" She pouted. He rested his elbow on sofa's arm and lean head against it to look at her who set down beside him on couch with her cute expressions and doe eyes

"Bhut" He replied

"Sidharthh!" She winced "I am sorry na I'll never say anything like that again mistake se bhi nahi" She apologised and has lost count now

"Kya karu mein batao mujhe I'll do anything for your forgiveness" She touched his arm to gain his attention which was more on phone in his hands than her

She looks at him through her thick lashes innocently, he looks back at her with blank expressions not changing a bit. She squeezes his arm with lips curving in pout when he wasn't replying to her, his eyes drifted down to her pouty lips before looking into her eyes

"Dance for me and I'll forgive you" He demanded keeping phone in front pocket of his kameez. Her doe eyes widen a little

"Mein koi tawaif nahi ke mujhe dance aye aur apke liye karu" She clears her throat with tinted cheeks not being able to keep eye-contact with him. His lips curved at her shyness, she's bold woman who's rarely shy and when she is it's bliss

"Tum meri biwi ho more like meri personal tawaif I'll say who only belongs to me and if you don't know dance you better learn it kyun ke this is only way I'm forgiving you" He caress her cheeks with charming smirk on his face

"K-kuch aur kahen" She winced feeling embarrassed even thinking about doing it

"You said you will do anything for my forgiveness mujhe yeh chahiye" He grabbed her face between his fingers to keep eye-contact with her

"Kuch aur krwayen sidharth" Her brown eyes met his dark brown once

She takes his name softly almost as whisper and used her eyes which always make him do things for her in her favour. He would say she's really good at seducing but now that he has pictured her dancing for him he wants that

"Kuch aur nahi." He said

"Please"

His eyes gazed into hers with intensity, she freaking knows what her using these words do to him. It turns him on instantly and drives him insane, he clenched his fist before letting go of her face. She tilted her head to look at him with confusion, he turned his head back to face her

"You will block all your university guy friends" He kept another demand since she manages to convince him no for first one

"But-"

"Choice is yours jaan, dance for me, block them or no forgiveness" He cut her off before she starts protesting. She thought for while

"I'll do dance" She said

   As much as he loved her answer it annoyed him that she chose it over blocking guys what's so special about them that she's ready to do something that made her even feel embarrass few minutes ago. She raised her eyebrows because now he was glaring at her furiously

"Apko chahiye tha yeh!" She reminds him

"I don't want this anymore just block those guys right now in front of me" He said keeping his glares on her. She mentally rolled her eyes being done at his mood swings

"Le-"

"If I hear something I don't like you will end up on your knees and I will send your words right back into your throat. You can fucking choke on them." He warned with fire within his eyes. His words made her look at him in disbelief but she can't help her cheeks from going red. He has mouth without any filter

"Theek hai! I'll do it!" She agreed but was pissed off. He doesn't care as long as boys are blocked
