CHAPTER 7
"he put down his fork at lunch as he stared at me. " Are you still mad about last night?"
This was when I finally killed one noodles with the fork and breathed heavily. God knows how I controlled myself from behaving like a killer for asad. How can he expect me to not be angry at him? He practically forced on me, his wishes once again!
I shoot out a glare at him, while chewing the food in my mouth. he sighs as he watches me ignoring him. " are we back to square one , once again." I find him muttering beneath his breathe and a waves of amusement washes over me. he is exactly copying my reaction in frustration.
He watches me some more before he sighs in defeat tone. He takes another bite of his salads and eats it quietly.
I didn't like the idea of him sharing my bed last night. I agree to the fact he doesn't look as much as a monster when he sleeps but still I didn't like him though. Because I know very well he is looking harmless only in his sleep, once he opens his eyes, the jillelahi' in him will be back again.
I finished my lunch and headed towards my room. Just when I am about to read some romantic book , my door gets open. Hey ! I clearly remember I have closed and locked my door. I whins like a 5 year old tapping my feet on floor.
"hey. Sorry for this." And he comes once again. this time he has keys jingling in his hand and a apologetic look.
Now what does this blood sucking vampire want from me? I rolls my eyes heaven ward and keep the book aside.
"my door was locked." I points out as a matter of fact.
"and I have spare keys for every room." He also states like its so obvious to know. ugh!! He is fueling me now! Damn.
"oh yes, how can I forget that." I make a sarcastic remark then folds my hand and shoots him dagger through my eyes, " let me change the question for you, why are you here?" i asks watching him intently.
Dare asks to share my room, you would regret to meet, Miss blackbelt zoya Khan! I smirk on my own threatening.
"pack your bags zoya, we are going for the picnic today. Make sure you pack EVERY thing you need." What the hell he means by picnic. I am not going anywhere mister... shoo! Away!
I opens my mouth to speak a word but he beats me to it, "you only got half hour. So get ready."he throws the missile and before I know he walks out of the room.
Ugh!! I hate him. I scream to the walls angrily.
I am in my room, nope! I am not ready. Nor I am interested in his any stupid plans. He wished to go, let him go alone. He can't force me every time. get a life dude. I am bride of a country who is in its 66 years of independence. I can make up my own decision. I sit silently giving a little dosage time to time with motivational speeches when I hear loud footsteps climbing up the stair. Oh no! he is coming.
"why are you not ready? We have long drive to go. Now get up and be quick" he is really behaving like Do as I say or else I will eat up up alive because I am a monster' type of thing. Ugh! This man. I cries feel pity for my own self.
Despite of all my attempts to not go with him, he makes me do as he says and gets all my stuffs ready to go in span of few minutes.
Now we both are standing at the entrance of this ridiculously big house. My bag is exactly besides his. Eew! I don't want his things to touch any thing that belongs to me. so I pull my bag and keeps it on other side of room. He sees me and rolls his eyes with a chuckle. What's so humorous about it now? Huh!
"so are you ready for this beautiful day." He says with a poker face and I had to cough to stop from laughing. What is he reading a news headline for me. mr monotonous ahmed khan!
He stares at me for a while before picking our bags and moving towards his car. I quietly follows him and sits on the seat besides his. Soon the ride for the hell begans. God please save me!!!!
" its all your fault." I scream at asad. " I told you there is no left turn here and you still took it. and see where you landed us here." I scream again this time bursting my tonsils at my hubby
"this situation is still not that bad zoya, For you to scream so much on me. give me some time and I will get us out of this. "he rolls his eyes at me and I swear to god I want to pull them off their socket.
"oh really mr khan! Look at the watch if yours have stopped working. Its almost 5 pm here. We were supposed to be at picnic spot and not here between animals and grasses." I points out at the dark forest in which we are stuck due to one wrong turn.
Screw the picnic. I am not going to sit here and become any wild animal's dinner. I have to do something, that too son before It gets very dark and makes the situation more complicated then its already is.
"hey, stop. Its not safe there. Where are you going?" his voice tears the silence of winds and echoes through woods. Damn! Its scary.
Ignoring him completely, I keep walking trying to fasten my speed on slippery mud. All of sudden I feel his hand on my elbow and with a blink of the eyes I am facing him. "Don't ignore me zoya. And don't leave my sight. I already have said it, I fix up everything."
I care a damn of what he is saying and remove my hand off his grip. "how can you fix up something now asad. Look at the place here. If you haven't got it yet let me spell it for you. we are in J. U. N. G. L. E. do you get that. There is no lamp post to guide, no road to walk on and no signal to call for help. Its already been hours and we didnt had a luck to find any tresspassers for help. We are driving her since a long time but no matter what way we take we ends up coming at the same place again and again. its like a marigo round. Every way is meeting at the same end. We are stuck here asad. Why cant you see it?" I shout at him, digging my index finger on his chest. My anger is enough for him to step back , I breathes out and turns again.
"I know we are in mess zoya. But you have to trust your husband in this. I assure you I wont let anything harm you until you are with me, I will get us out from here." He says softly and then taking my hand in his again his eyes softened more with care, "the sky is getting dark , soon our vision wont support us any more and by looking at the wind and lightning I am sure its going to rain. So please listen to me. stay in the car and I will come back with some help."his words were laced with so much of intensity. What was he trying to do with his eyes locks with mine? Is he reading any spell on me? Because I am sure as hell I immediately gave into his demand. That to willingly!
"come back soon." I feel a churn in the pit of my stomach. This is a feeling when I feel something will go wrong.
"I will." He turns to me, taking my face in his hands he stares into my eyes like it's the last time he will see it. "close all the doors and lock them properly. Don't open them till I retun or morning arrives. Which ever is first." He sighs and I feel a strong urge of holding him to myself tight and not letting him go.
"asad, don't go. Its okay. We can wait here till morning." I say enveloping my other hand over his. He smiles with a low chuckle. Before he moves himself on other side of door and shuts it.
"take care..." he says with a deadly silence tone.
His tone his voice, and this strange feeling I had in pit of my stomach, are they signing me towards some bad omen. What should I do? I should never have left his sight. What if something wrong happens with him?
I shuts my eyes and breathes in. its then the time when I feel my cheeks staining with tears and the same time the clouds starts pouring rain. I feel my heart flutters in fear and some unknown danger. Just then my eyes flew opens in realisation and without giving a thought I opens the door and runs behind him. calling his name, "Asad!"
