os : love in air..... - Page 2

Mirza's fury was at the mountain. razia got completely traumatized seeing his reaction. Mirza walked off and went near the pond. He took some stones in anger and started throwing them in the pond. Suddenly, he was feeling very empty and lonely.

razia decided to talk to him, she fearfully and cautiously went near the pond and in low tone she said "subedar sahab" she paused briefly for a response from him but mirza didn't respond and without looking at her, he started walking away from her.

razia called him again in pleading tone "subedar saheb, please listen to me."

But he ignored her again. razia ran behind him and held his hand to stop him. He looked back with immense resentment and screamed " I don't want to see your face, I have no interest in having any conversation with you."

razia was still standing while holding his hand. Finally mirza pushed her hand away with a jerk and before she could say anything he rode off towards the palace.

His anger was at the mountain... he felt like killing everyone, he was unable to handle her rejection. All of his begums were crazy for his one gaze, but there was something in Her every sentence, every word, every tear was affecting him intensely. This was the first time in his life that he was feeling defeated. He wanted to hurt her so much but he couldn't do that.

razia also rode back to the palace. She straight away went to see mirzal in his chamber but his guard stopped her at the entrance, she waited for mirza's permission to go inside his chamber, mirza saw her standing helplessly, while looking in her eyes he denied her request to meet him. She felt distinguish sting and antagonism in his eyes. She felt really guilty for making him feel this way and she wanted to make things right.

mirza was completely shaken by what was happening between him and razia. He had realized and knew very well now that he was losing his control over his heart, His restless mind and heart both were broken and shattered. He wanted to stay alone for the day.

Seeing him that vulnerable she was feeling guilty...razia wanted to apologies him somehow, so she decided to cook his favorite dish for him for lunch. She made the entire meal for both of them. Shah turkan noticed this and was surprised to see razia cooking for mirza.After getting everything ready she went to mirza's chamber and told mirza's special bandi to go inside and ask if subedar sahib is ready for his lunch and instructed her not to mention her name.

Mirza was deeply lost in his thought... He recalled their first kiss, first hug, how he carried her in his arms, their peaceful sleep, cuddling each other, all those beautiful moments they shared were repeating in his mind over and over again just like a movie. Remembering those beautiful moments his anger cooled down a little. The maid came inside and asked him "subedar saheb, Are you ready to eat lunch?" and without looking at her he absentmindedly replied "Bring it in."

razia came in mirza's chamber with all the food and started serving the food.
mirza was still lost in his thoughts; he was standing near the window watching the birds flying in the sky. He didn't notice razia's presence; suddenly he heard the familiar sound of razia's payal and realized razia was there, he swiftly turned back towards her. She cheerfully smiled at him while serving food.

With anguished voice he shouted, "Why did you come to my chamber without my permission?"

Razia playfully replied "I don't need anyone's permission to come to my husband's chamber."

mirza got shocked with her answer and audacity , he replied with sarcastic tone, "Oh Shehzadi razia, so now you realized that I am your husband??"

She grinned at him and said teasingly "When did I deny that you are my husband?" She paused and smirked at him mischievously and then continued "Don't you see I am fulfilling my duty; I have cooked all this food for you."

mirza's anger was slowly melting away seeing her cheerful impish face, "Do you know wife's duty?" he snapped,

razia replied sarcastically, "subedar saheb, Actually this is my first experience, how would I know all my duties?? "she sounded very much playful.

Mirza's anger almost vanished but still he was feeling bitter. So he looke towards the window and did't replied to any of her queries, this infuriated razia she after trying a lot got up and started to move out of the room.

mirza softly said "Shehzadi razia...Stop...come back."

His polite pleading tone stopped her, she turned to look back, mirza asked in serious tone "Shehzadi razia, I thought, you wanted to talk to me about something and what about food, won't you like to have lunch with me?"

razia with hurtful tone replied with her moist eyes "I don't want to eat anything and I am not in mood to talk about anything anymore."

mirza smirked a little seeing her cute cranky face "That's fine with me but if you don't serve me than I will have to call my special..." he said playfully... before he finish she came back and said in annoyance "I know my duty..."mirza was getting pleasure seeing her jealousy.

He got up from the couch and said "Let's see what my new begum has cooked for me."

"Shehzadi razia you have cooked for me with your wish for first time, so I would like both of us to eat in the same plate."

razia with little blush and smile nodded her face in agreement. Mirza took the first bite of Roti and vegetable gravy and as soon as he ate it he said "Subhan Allahshehzadi razia, delicious and tasty...just like you."

It took her a seconds to comprehend his comment; suddenly realizing what he was talking about her entire face turned pink. She couldn't lift her eyes up to see him and thought... how can he comment like this so smoothly impassively and make me blush heavily...

mirza took another piece of Roti and vegetable curry and lovingly forwarded his hand towards her to feed her. She shyly opened her mouth to eat; she still couldn't lift her eyes up. Both of them ate lunch in deep silence while stealing gazed at each other.

She was still feeling awkwardly shy eating with him under his piercing gaze, she couldn't lift her eyes up. He lifted her chin up with his fingers and sensually said breaking their romantic silence "Shehzadi razia, your eyes are so beautiful and innocent, please don't hide them from me."

razia lifted her eyes slowly and saw his mild smirk on his face. His constant gaze made her very uncomfortable.

In low tone shyly she asked ", why are you staring at me and smiling?"

His mouth sets in an amusing smirk... his eyes had mysterious smirk in it... he continued staring at her without breaking his gaze from her.

razia with little irritation said ", don't look at me like this, you are making me uncomfortable."

mirza was still smiling mysteriously and gazing at her which really annoyed her.

Irritably she asked him loudly "Why are you staring at me?"

mirza with deep sensual grin replied "Shehzadi razia, I can't take my eyes off of you, your cheeks turn all pink and actually your lips..." he stopped purposely...

razia warily asked "What happened to my lips?"

mirza silently sneered at her and said "Shehzadi razia, I advise you better stay in your room for the next few hours today after lunch."

razia looked at him with annoyance and innocently asked " you are too confusing, why should I stay in my room?"

mirza laughed out loud and asked her "Do you really want to know?"

razia with irritation "Seriously, I think you have some problem, I have asked you ten times and you are still asking me, do I really want to know, Yes, of course I want to know."

mirza laughed at her innocence and asked her "Are you done with lunch?"

She nodded her head in Yes.

Mirza got up from his chair and wiped his hands then takes hold of her hand and took her to the mirror. He made razia stand in the front and He stood behind her, both were looking in the mirror...before she could realize he whispered in her ear "razia our first kiss has made your lips more rosy and desirable."

razia's eyes caught at her little swollen lips and his passionate gaze through the mirror. She covered her face with both her hands. mirza encircled his hands on her belly hugging her from back.

She felt him hugging her, she softly said, ", please let me go."

mirza whispered in her ears "razia I will never forget our beautiful morning together. You are deliciously sweet and beautiful. You have no idea how I am controlling myself right now to not kiss your rosy lips." he broke the hug and turned her towards himself and softly took her hands off from her face and said "Shehzadi razia, don't hide your face from me."

She again felt same magnetic attraction towards him... she realized his spell was again starting to work on her... before it's too late she decided to back off, she moved few steps backward from him and said ", let me go please."

mirza disappointing asked her "Why razia? We are a married couple then why are you running away from me and making me crazily mad??"

razia realized she needed to give him an explanation otherwise again he will feel his ego crushed. In very controlled and calm voice she replied "subedar saheb, first of all I would like to apologize to you for this morning, it was my fault, I don't know how I went so far today but I need some more time. I had never seen any trouble in my life before I met you. I had no idea that life can be this cruel and interesting. There are so many ups and downs I have seen and experienced in the last few months. Some days you have terrified me, some days you have threatened me, some days you have wounded me, you forced me to marry you and your purpose of marriage was to take revenge on me. You have tried to smear me in front of the court.In the small number of days you have done so much to break my ego, my dignity and my self esteem " Jalal was extremely shocked...It took him a while to comprehend.

After a short pause... she continues "Even after all this, you have surprise me many times. You promised that you will not touch me again without my consent; you took care of me genuinely when I was sick, and you understood my needs and respected me. You have given me lots of wounds and surprises. After all this, you have gained my respect but not love. I do not hate you anymore but I don't love you either... I will accept you completely when both of our hearts love each other." razia calmly said everything in one goes."

mirza got shocked again with her transparency, her resistance, her admission of guilt, he understood everything but her last sentence bothered mirza the most... LOVE.

mirza replied softly "Shehzadi razia, I am very much thrilled with this openness and truth but one thing you are forgetting is that mirza doesn't have a heart, all weaknesses come from the heart, I can give you everything you want but not my heart...because I don't have one."

razia with gratifying smile replied "Subedar saheb, do you know the meaning of a marriage? It's a bridge between faith, respect, trust and most importantly love for each other. It is a connection between two souls...two hearts.mirza couldn't say a word...he was utterly shaken, he tried to change the topic to mask his emotions and said in serious voice "I have to go to the court Shehzadi razia, Kudha Hafiz" and left. He couldn't stand her purity anymore.

On the other side shah turkan was getting more and more annoyed seeing mirza and razia's increasing closeness. A maid came and gave her a bunch of messages to turkan. She was responsible manage all the mails and forward them to the appropriate people. There was a message for razia and she wickedly smiled seeing the message.
