Samad's pov

she jerked the blanket off her legs and stood up,

I looked at her confused,

she walked towards the door
"Amal what are you doing?
are you looking for washroom?"

"no I need to go back" she answered rudely

"amal, stop"

"NO YOU STOP!" she yelled pushing me back

I looked at her shocked

"my parents, my sister, and yourself.....he'll kill all of you,
you didnt think for a second before barging in there and kidnapping me?" she pointed furiously towards the door

"I kidnapped you????...have you gone mad?" I yelled and she immediately stopped talking and started shivering in fear

I was filled with guilt
I breathed in deeply and called her In a coaxing voice

"amal" I called with all the love I had in me

"please amal I am not going to hurt you i am here to save you"
I comforted her in a low soft voice assuring her that I am not the one to hurt her

seeing my love filled emotions she was assured I wasnt hurting her

"I dont need to be saved...you all do!"
with that she started walking out

"amal...amal...AMAL STOP!!
do you even know where we are?,
do you know where you are supposed to go in order to go back to that hell??!!!"

"NO!!!...I DON'T!!!!!!!!!"

"but I do know that I still have time, if I go right now take some punishment you all can be saved....you, my parents, ambreen di and myself, all of us"

how do i tell her that they are no more

I nodded my head in a no

"please amal!!" I pleaded frustrated and fell on the bed

her eyes softened,
approaching me she held my hand in a firm grip

i felt my whole body going numb
all I could feel was the touch of her hand,

this was the first time she touched me

"samad please let me go, he is dangerous I need to keep all of you safe"

"no amal, I am safe or rahi baat bakhi sab ki they are also safe now" I felt my chest getting tighter as the moment came close when I had to tell her

"what do you mean?" she asked confused

"yo..you..." I gulped audibly trying to find some strength to give her the news

tears slipped from my eyes

"please amal...I cant..." I looked in her eyes while trying to compose myself

she nodded with determination and wiped her tears, she breathed in sharply and squeezed my hand one last time before she let go of it

placing her hand on my cheek lovingly

"take care samad" she whispered and proceeded to walk

I stood up hurridly
"amal you dont need to go to him anymore"

I pleaded but she ignored me and kept walking,

I held her hand but she jerked it off

" amal, wait...
amal...
amal...
amal please..."

I called her but she kept walking as if I wasnt there,

"YOUR PARENTS ARE DEAD!!!" i said in one breath and closed my eyes tightly,

as if I close my eyes I wont have to face this,

"what?" she stopped dead on her tracks and asked me without turning back

"your parents are dead amal, they are dead" i whispered

turning to face me, she asked agitated
"what kind of stupid trick is this to stop me?"

"I am not tricking you amal....
uncle and aunty are no more"

I observed her waited for some sort of reaction, but there was none,

I expected some sort of reaction
like I have seen people laugh it off in denial, or refuse to believe the reality, or cry and mourn, but she just stood there as if she froze on her spot,

I stood up to reach her
"amal?" i called her in a shaky voice

she just blinked at me and tears kept falling from her eyes one after another

"amal?" I placed my hand on her shoulder and shaked her

"amal? please talk, cry, yell, do something"
I pleaded to her while I cried feeling her pain,

my chest ached looking at her like this,

I held her hand in my both hands and clutched it tightly trying to make her feel that I am here to support her,

she snapped out of her daze and looked at me panicked

"I beg you samad please send me back to arham"

"PAGAL TOH NAHI HOGAYI TUM?"
(have you gone mad?)

"MAINE KAHA MAR GAYE TUMHARE MAA BAAP!!!!...
(I said your parents are dead)

OR TUM MUJHSE KEH RAHI HO K TUMNE WAPAS JAANA HAI......
(and you are telling me that you want to yo back)

AREY RO MAATAM KARO!!!...
AMAL HOSH KARO!!!" I shook her furiously
(cry, mourn!!!...
amal, face the reality)

"Maine wapas jaana hai BAS BAAT KHATAM!!!"
(I told you I have to go back thats it conversation finished)

I realized this was her reaction denial

I cried "amal, aunty uncle are dead didnt you hear me?"

"Maine wapas jana hai"
(i have to ho back)
she replied stubbornly and I decided to do the same

"heart attack aaya tha uncle ko"
(uncle had a heart attack)
I told her and waited for her to break down in tears

"Maine wapas jana hai arham se maafi mangna hai"
(I have to go back)

"puchogi nahi heart attack q?"
(wont you ask how why heart attack?)

I asked but she stood there as if she was deaf so I kept talking

"ahmed bhai bata rahe the k tumhare abbu ko sara sach pata chal gaya tha,
arham se baat ki, toh usne asli rang dika diye or bebas mehsus karke bohot tension leke marr gaye tumhare baba"
(ahmed bhai was telling me that your father came to know about all of the truth and he talked to arham, arham showed his true colors In front of your baba and then he felt so helpless that he died with that feeling)

I tried to sound harsh but she stood there letting tears fall from her eyes

"ye ghum unhe khaa gaya k tumhe bacha nahi sakte wo"
(the fact that he couldnt help you l, took him to his death)
I said the words which I know will break her heart, but she didnt budge.

"phir tatfeen (burial) tak tumhara wait karti rahi tumhari ammi toh arham ne kaha tum talaq (divorce) leke apne khab pure karne chali gayi toh wo bichari b marr gayi" I examined her face and I could tell she was on the verge
(then your ammi waited for you till burial but arham came and told them that you asked for a divorce ran off to pursue your dreams, your mother couldnt handle so much, so she too died)

"lekin wo heart attack se nahi mari unki dimag ki nasein phat gayi thi tension se"
(but she didnt die because of heart attack,  the nerves of her brain bursted because of the stress)

and that was when she fell on the floor and started wailing
she just cried and cried and cried loudly

I sat infront of her, watched her,
i felt helpless,
my heart ached looking at her,

she kept repeating 'ammi abbu' and cried

she placed her elbows on her knees and held her head in her hands and kept crying

I couldnt control myself and I hugged her and she kept crying in my embrace

she wailed
"ammi, abbu aise kaise chale gaye apke liye hi toh jhel rahi thi sab kuch"
(ammi, abbu, how could you go, I was bearing all of this for you guys)

"allah miya aise q kar rahe hai samad?...
q?...kya mai itni buri hu?"
(why is allah doing this to me?,...why?...am I so bad?"
she faced me while I still hugged her.

there were no words in my mouth so I just nodded my head in a no and we both kept crying sitting on the floor hugging each other.

"wahh begum apki toh ayyashi chal rahi hai yaha pe toh"
(wow my wife, seems like you are enjoying yourself here)
came a voice from behind us and we both turned our heads towards the voice.
