WHEN HIS ACTIONS COMPLETE MY THOUGHTS.

Here I am standing, getting my sister ready for her nikah. I can sense her excitement. I should be too, considering this is the moment I have cherished all my life. Her wedding has always been more important to me than my own. We have imagined and dreamed and giggled about this for so long...I used to love teasing her to see her getting all flushed...her shyness and eagerness used to charm me...by all rights, I should be floating along side her...but sadly, I am weighed down.

Only two people have mattered to me all my life and I thought it'd always stay the same. Apparently, that has changed ...In a big way...

I cannot explain the enormous sadness in my heart. All through badi ammi's illness, I had found the strength from somewhere. Was it the unspoken word of protection he seemed to envelop me with? He has never promised me anything...but the fact is, I seem to turn to him in dire situations. And he has obliged...ALWAYS. ...

So today, when he broke that trust in no uncertain words, I was shattered,...


And this had to happen NOW...just after he had emphatically defended me in front of his whole family. And so soon after all those beautiful gifts he had showered on me...when I was beginning to revel in what was beginning to look like a marriage in its true sense.

Really, the past few days have been so different. He had stopped taunting me on the falsehood our relationship was based on...I must have even dared to hope. No wonder I felt like he led me on to a precipice and let me fall. The climb had been exhilarating, the fall was that much more devastating!

It simply felt like...he was showing me my place...

What was my crime? How could he point fingers at me every time I talked to a man! Izzat!!!! He was calling me a wayward woman! -a woman with loose morals! Did he even know how repulsive that sounded to me...It squeezed out all the respect I had for him...how could someone be so narrow minded! Did he take me for one of those loose women he takes to the haystack..and god knows where else! Is that all he knows about women! Does he not know any other kind?

It hurt me deeply...that one moment of accusation...and I lashed out very harsh.

Mujhe aazadi chahiye - I meant those words, yet I did not mean that...I wanted this farce to end...I wanted something solid. I was getting suffocated , being just a temporary someone in his life... couldn't we ever be a normal couple, respecting and loving each other?

I believe in who I am. I know my worth, even though he cannot stand me. Can he not respect me for the person I am? Why dig for reasons to pour dirt over my dignity? His words...His accusations...With each passing day, my defences against him are growing weaker. Therefore the pain becomes more and more unbearable...HOPE. ..why do I continue to hope?

One fleeting moment when I screamed I wanted a release from this trap of a relationship...where he could fling me up and around like a rag doll to satisfy his whims and fancies...I saw something in his eyes. He hurt too...was it the misfortune of being dragged into this with me, or something else? He has played his part well...adapted to me in his life. He must be waiting for the day he can be rid of me for good! If so, why does he take the extra effort to make me comfortable? Why does he turn green whenever I speak to Rehaan? (Rehaan! Of all the people! )

I WISH WE COULD TALK!


Haya jingled her bangles...pointed towards the clock. It was time. My sister was all eager to belong to the man who loved her. I can only wish her happiness...all the joy written in my share too.

I seated her at the hall. I tried to be cheerful, despite the aching despair in my heart. Raahat mentioned waiting for Aahil. I tried to cover up for his absence...

... I need not have...

He stood at the doorway - a true prince charming!

Looking handsome as ever...holding gifts for my sister...

...A thought I could not complete. ..how had he known what was on my mind!


How did this happen to two people? How can he insult me one minute and make me feel exulted by his presence, the very next minute?

...how did he know what I had wanted for my sister...
How did he just know what had to be done!

Who in the world can explain this to me ever!

Oh! The joy that I knew when I saw him!
I have no words to describe it.

He walked in. ..apologised for the delay, blessed my sister. ..and MADE MY DAY PERFECT! !!
He came and stood next to me. ..my heart knew no bounds of joy...
I turned to thank him...but he moved on...

And now I am filled with this restlessness. ..I am waiting for the moment I can be alone with him.

I want him to know...

...that NO ONE CAN EVER DO WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR ME!

Oh you Soup! Beautiful, beautiful, just BEAUTIFUL <33 This was just gorgeous stuff! How. HOW indeed do you write this shiz!
This is simply just so heartfelt and genuine. I can't even begin to describe, it was like I am watching Sanam and scrutinising her "mind palace" ๐Ÿ˜†

How beautifully you have explained all that she was going through in that span of time.

She was hurt. Beyond hurt at his accusations and continous rubbing off. It broke her from within. I felt like this was the time she was LITERALLY hurt. And it was most painful off all the times.

Because this relation, his "unexpected actions" towards her, has ignited a thin line of hope in her that this marriage could work. She has always expected from him, she has always looked up to him, no matter what she felt or denied, she expects something from her. And that she has also admitted this time. She ADMITTED. Unlike HIM. This time it broke her the most because she has actually started feeling "happy' with him, on his those small things. And when he said those words, it shattered her through within. She doubted on herself why she expected these from him.

And then, when he came to the wedding with gifts. She was left dumbfounded. She NEVER ever have expected such sorta gesture from him specially after the fight they just had. Again she was confused, coz when she HAD expected something it went awry, and now when she din't expect he turns up at that moment. Making her even more confused of his behaviour, or did he really mean those words or not?
I guess he likes to keep her this way, raising her hopes, shattering them in a whim and then doing the unexpected again!๐Ÿ˜†
She felt like she just won something. Her eyes were smiling, though she was stifling her smiles, she was touched by his behaviour and was also feeling guilty for what she had done so wanted to thank him but couldn't manage, he din't allow.

The most highlighted point in this scenario for me was the fact they actually acknowledged that they HAD hurt each other this time. They have hurt each other before way too many times, but were oblivious of the fact or may be too blinded by their egos. This time, when he said about Izzat, he KNEW he hurt her, and when she said that ghutan thing she KNEW he hurt him. They are even here, AGAIN! They fight, hurt each other, take digs at each other, but NEVER they allow other one to score over them. They stand EQUAL at every damn scenario. This is indeed a major step in their relationship.

Wonderful Soup๐Ÿ‘Sanam must be thinking the same. What an emotional episode.
Both of them were spitting venoms for each other๐Ÿคข. Aahil crossed his limits, and sanam was no lessAnd i was so so upset with her She still thinks he hates her, I mean really Sanam? He stood up for you.against his Ammi The Great AMMI!!! And you still think he hates you..ouch! That hurtsCan't you see those eyes? He bought so many dresses for you because he hates you right? He came to your sister's wedding with gifts and a lovely smile because he hates you right? How can I forget that you are the daughter of AAK? Aapne pyar ko rulana bhi tumhari aadat nahi virasat hai!!!!
And then you have said the deadliest thing.."Mujhe aap se azadi chahiye"
20 years back Asad Ahmed Khan said.."Vo din mere zindegi ka sabse achha din hoga jab aap meri zindegi se ruksat honge" He got the result then and there

20 years after...Sanam Ahmed Khan, daughter of Asad Ahmed Khan said.."mujhe aap se azadi chahiye"she is also going to get the result๐Ÿ˜ณ

They say think before you wish ...Kya pata kaunsi wish kab puri ho jaye

Lovely post ๐Ÿ‘. I'm so glad that you've penned down Sanam's POV. Incredible work here. Reading it was a joy for me. The moment they looked at each other, that's the acknowledgment that they went a tat too far. Aahil's face was so reassuring to tell her that it will be fine and Sanam had understood that. And him seeing her face, it told him that too. I was so proud of that moment ๐Ÿ˜Š . Can't say anything more, than what you have said. Keep up the good work ๐Ÿ˜‰ .
