I know that everyone is sad and depressed right now. Even I am. The CVs had brutally murdered the most beautiful character in the entire QH series and had destroyed our SeHan. I still can't digest the fact that we won't see Rehan anymore in the story. This is something that I had penned down after reading about the precap for Monday's episode. This is something we all want to see in the show. At least we can fulfil our wishes through these stories...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seher sat in front of Rehan's grave as endless tears made their way down her cheeks. She was tired. She was both physically and emotionally exhausted. All she wanted to do right now was to snuggle close to Rehan and sleep peacefully in his arms forever. She wanted to be inside that grave with him. She didn't want to live anymore. All the happy moments that they spent together played in front of her eyes. She closed her eyes in an attempt to block the pain and let the tears fall down her cheeks.
The graveyard was empty. The funeral was over long back and everyone had left the place. Seher requested Sanam and Haya to let her stay alone with her Rehan for some time. They were distraught seeing her state. They were worried for her. But still complied to her wish reluctantly. Seher sat there without any motion. She was ignorant of everything around her. She never realized when it turned dusk and sun gave way for moon. The night was dark. It mirrored the current state of her life. The only ray of light which she had in her life was mercilessly snatched away from her.
Seher sat their oblivious to her surroundings. That's when someone's voice made her snap out of her trance. That voice... How could she forget it? It was the voice of the person she hated the most. The voice dripped venom with each word it spoke. It was the voice that murderer. Her love's murderer. She fisted her hands to control her anger.
Tanveer: "What are you doing at MY son's grave? Who gave you the permission to come here? You have no right to come even near to him! You are the sole reason that I lost my son. You are responsible for his death! You killed him!"
That was the limit for Seher. She stood up in rage to face the monster.
Seher: "What kind of a mother are you? Do you have even an ounce of shame left in you?! You KILLED your son!! And still you have the audacity to come here and deliver all these bullshit in front of me! How on earth are you still alive?! If someone else was in your place, they would have died out of guilt! How can a mother live peacefully after killing her own son? You made him suffer all his life. And now you took away his life too! I won't leave you. I'll make you pay for each of your deeds! I'll make you shed tears of blood! I would avenge my Rehan's death!"
Seher was shaking with anger. She wanted to kill that woman right now. But she won't do that. She doesn't deserve such an easy death. Tanveer should pay the price for each of her crime. And she will make sure that justice is done.
Suddenly Seher felt an immense pain on the back of her head as something hard hit her. Her hands caught her head in reflex. She wobbled on her feet as she turned around slightly to see who had hit her. She saw the new Sanam standing there with a rod in her hand. She extended one of her hands to catch her but couldn't do so as she felt her eyelids getting heavy. She felt everything spinning around her. Finally she collapsed on the ground losing consciousness.
Sanam 2: "It's time to avenge your son's death Badi Bi. Kill her right away and get justice for your son. Don't let your son's sacrifice go waste!" She passed a gun to Tanveer.
Tanveer held the gun in her hands and pointed it towards an unconscious Seher. She eyed her with fury.
Tanveer: "You snatched away my son from me Seher! You didn't do the right thing. Now you will have to pay for what you did! I will not let you and your sister win. I will kill you!"
Tanveer pulled the trigger. The sound of the bullet being fired echoed in the graveyard. The deafening silence of the graveyard was broken.
But the bullet never reached Seher. She still lay there unconscious, unaware of what was happening around her. Tanveer was shocked when someone had grabbed her arms and lifted it up. The bullet was fired in the air. She turned to her side only to receive the biggest shock of her life. There stood a very angry looking Rehan with blood-shot eyes! He still had his hold on her hands. His one hand was casted with bandage. She had never seen him so angry. He was boiling with rage! His eyes were spitting fire! He pushed her hands away.
Rehan: "How dare you?!! How dare you try to kill MY Sunehri???!!!" He spoke with all the hatred and rage that he had for her.
Tanveer was overwhelmed to see Rehan alive. She approached him with happy tears flowing down her eyes.
Tanveer: "Rehan! My son! You are alive!" She went to cup his face with her hands. But he stepped back.
Rehan: "Don't! Don't you dare touch me with those filthy hands of yours!"
Tanveer: "Rehan..."
Rehan: "You will never change. First you tried to kill Ahil Bhai and now you were going to kill my Sunehri?! My love??! Till now I was quite. But not anymore! I tried to correct you a thousand times. But you never listened to me! You pretend that you love me. You always say that you are doing all this for me. But no! You're lying! You do everything for yourself. You never loved anyone and would never do that in the future. You love only yourself. How many times did I tell you that I don't want any of this property? The only thing I ever wanted was a little bit of love from you. But you failed to give me that also! But now I don't want anything from you! You never loved me. If you had ever loved me, then you wouldn't have tried to kill my love today! I forgave you for all your mistakes. But not this one! I'll never forgive a person who tries to hurt my love. Don't call me your son hereafter! You have lost all rights to call so!"
Tanveer was devastated hearing Rehan's words. She was in tears. She tried to convince him.
Tanveer: "Rehan, don't talk like this son! You know that I love you! Whatever I did or is doing is for you. Only for you! What all things have I done for you?! I had to keep you away from myself! I had to pretend to love Ahil when all I wanted was his property! I had to marry that old Nawab! And I had to kill him because he realized my intensions! I never loved Ahil! I loved only you! You are my son. Not him! Because of him I had to keep you away from myself! Please try to understand me Rehan! I did all this for you!"
"Ammi..."
Tanveer was shocked beyond her wits to hear the voice of a broken Ahil behind her. She turned around only to face a dazed Ahil supported by Sanam.
Ahil: "Ammi, I always trusted you! Worshipped you! Loved you more than anyone else in this world! And this is what you gave me in return?! I never even in my wildest dreams thought that you would do this to me. Why Ammi? Why?"
Tanveer was appalled. She knew that her game was over. She didn't know what to do. Sanam 2 tried to escape from the scene seeing it getting out of control. But she was caught by the lady police constables who came there. Few of them went to Tanveer and handcuffed her. Tanveer was beyond shocked to react in any way.
Rehan: "I never thought that I will have to do this Ammi. But you have left no options for me. You have cheated everyone. You played with everyone's emotions. If I don't do this today, then you will destroy many more lives. I'm sorry!"
Rehan, Sanam and Ahil watched on as the police took away a dazed Tanveer and a struggling Sanam 2. Sanam tried to console Ahil. Soon the police left the place leaving the three of them there.
Rehan suddenly bend down and reached out to an unconscious Seher. He pulled her towards him with his uninjured hand and placed her head in his lap. He felt his heart constricting seeing the tried tear stains on her face. She looked so pale and fragile. His eyes welled up seeing her condition. He tried to wake her up.
Rehan: "Sunehri! Please open your eyes Sunehri! I won't let anything happen to you! Look, I'm fine! I'm alive! Everything will be alright now. Please open your eyes Sunehri! Please talk to me!" He tried to wake her up frantically. Tears were continuously flowing from his eyes. Sanam and Ahil had also came to them. Sanam too tried to wake Seher up.
The tears which were flowing from Rehan's eyes fell on Seher's face. She stirred a bit. Rehan looked at her sensing the movement. He saw her opening her eyes slowly.
Seher opened her eyes slowly trying to adjust her vision. When everything came into view, she looked up to see the person who had her head in his lap. She was shocked out of her wits. She sat up straight and stared at him as if she was dreaming. She didn't even blink her eyes fearing that he may disappear if she did so.
Rehan: "Sunehri..."
Seher broke out of her trance hearing his voice. Tears started streaming down her cheeks.
Seher: "Rehan..." With that she leaned forward and hugged him as if her life depended on it. Rehan too hugged her back with equal fervour. Seher sobbed uncontrollably into his chest. Rehan tried to console her with soothing words and by rubbing her back. When her sobs subsided, they pulled away reluctantly.
Seher: "Rehan... You are alive?! Nothing happened to you?! You're alright?!"
Rehan: "Yes Sunehri! I'm fine. How could I leave you alone when I had promised to be with you forever?"
Seher smiled with happy tears flowing from her eyes.
Rehan: "I know you have many questions. I'll answer everything. But first tell me; Are you fine? Does your head hurt?"
Seher: "When you are with me, then how could something happen to me? I'm perfectly fine. But tell me one thing. If you are fine then whose dead body is this? And where were you? Why didn't you come to me? Why did you make me cry?" Tears again made their way down her cheeks as she questioned him. He wiped away her tears and held her close. Ahil and Sanam were happy to see them together. Tears were flowing from their eyes too.
Rehan: "The bullet which Ammi fired had hit my shoulder. Due to the impact I fell down the stairs and into the pond. When Ahil Bhai took me to the hospital, I was alive. The doctors treated me and removed the bullet. After some time I regained my consciousness. The doctors were relieved and were about to inform about the same to Ahil Bhai. But I stopped them.
I always knew that my Ammi was evil and manipulative. But never in my wildest dreams had I thought that she would stoop low to such an extent to achieve her goal. She was trying to kill Ahil Bhai! Just because she didn't want her crimes to come out in the open! Things had gone far beyond our control. I understood that she would never change her ways or be guilty of what she did. I knew that I had to do something. I had to act fast. Ammi's only weakness is me. So if she feels that she had lost her son or rather worse that she had killed her own son, she would go insane. I thought that she will break down and may confess all her crimes! That's why I asked the doctors to inform others that I was dead. At first they didn't agree. But then I called one of my friends, who is an ACP, and asked him to help me. He asked the doctors to do as I said. So, they told everyone that I was dead.
The body which Ahil Bhai had brought home was not mine. It was an unidentified dead body which was there in the hospital. No one had claimed the dead body. According to the instructions given by my friend, they made a mask which looked exactly like my face and made the dead body wear it. Then they gave away the body to Ahil Bhai claiming it to be mine.
I was watching everything that happened at home hidden in the crowd. I had thought that Ammi will say the truth at least in front of her son's dead body. But I forgot that she was my Ammi! Even in front of the dead body, she was acting to be blind. I was taken aback by seeing the act she had put up. Then I saw you coming there. I felt terrible seeing you in that state. I had the urge to come up to you and pull you into a bone crushing hug! But I wasn't able to. If I did so, then everything would have gone down the drain. I was disgusted to see Ammi stopping you from seeing me for one last time. I was highly distressed to see your plight! I'm sorry Sunehri! I had made you cry! I had made you go through so much pain! I'm really sorry!"
Tears never stopped flowing from Seher's eyes. She just kept on looking at Rehan as he narrated everything.
Rehan: "I wanted to tell you everything. I wanted you to know that I am alive. That's why I came here to meet you. But then I saw Ammi also coming here. So I called the police and asked them to come here along with Sanam and Ahil Bhai. But what I saw next made my blood boil! That new Sanam had hit you with the rod and Ammi was trying to kill you! I couldn't stop myself and confronted her. Luckily, police also arrived here at the right time. They arrested both Ammi and new Sanam for all their crimes!
I can't even imagine what I would have done if something happened to you! What would have happened if I was late?! I would have lost you! I can't even think of a life without you! I'm so sorry Sunehri! Because of me, your life was in danger. I'm really sorry!"
Seher reached out to Rehan and wiped away his tears.
Seher: "It was not your fault Rehan. You did all this with good intention. And anyway I would have preferred death than living alone without you."
Rehan held her palm and nodded his head in negative silently asking her to not say so.
Seher: "I have forgiven you this time. But don't you dare do that to me again. Never ever play with my emotions like this. And promise me. Promise me that you will never leave me... That you'll always be there with me. Promise me Rehan..."
Rehan cupped her cheeks and wiped away her tears. He pulled her closer and gave a kiss on her forehead.
Rehan: "I promise you Sunehri! I will never leave you! I'll always be there with you. And no force can separate us from each other. I love you Sunehri! And I will keep loving you till eternity."
Seher hugged him as tears yet again made their way down their cheeks.
Seher: "I love you too Rehan... I love you so much! More than anything else in this world!"
Both Rehan and Seher stayed there hugging each other. Both of them were trying to absorb all the pain and hurt the other one felt. At that moment they didn't bother about anything else. They were oblivious to their surroundings. All they cared about was each other.
Sanam and Ahil stood there holding each other's arms and looking lovingly at their siblings. They became silent spectators of the beautiful scene unfolding in front of their eyes. The moon also came out of the clouds and spread light. The nature too seemed to be happy for the beautiful couple. The whole universe bestowed their blessings upon them as they found solace in each other's arms...
