The sun peeked through clouds and the wind blew making every leaf of tree shiver. After offering our Fajr prayer, Rohaan and I strolled in garden. He took my hands in his and told me about his business and what he likes to do in his spare time and much more, I was just listening to him . He asked me some questions and I replied softly and calmly. The cool breeze was passing and making my dupatta blow and after one or two minutes I had to make it proper.

After a good stroll in garden , I went inside to make breakfast. Rohaan preffered to stay out for sometime. I set the table and called everyone for breakfast. Everyone came except Izzah, I got up from chair to call her and turned to go up when I saw her hopping down stairs and then coming towards us still hopping and then after a loud salaam she gave us her full blown smile making us laugh.

"By 11 o'clock be ready we have to go to shopping yay!!" She said enthusiastically while looking at me.I smiled at her childish behaviour and then nodded.

"Shopping? Do you need anything? I am free on this weekend we can go together." Rohaan said to me.

"No!! She will go with me. You mister, go to your office. I am free on this weekend we can go together." Izzah said and also mimicked him. Rohaan groaned inwardly and rolled his eyes.

Everyone laughed.

When Rohaan and uncle had gone to office Izzah made me go upstairs and get ready for shopping. After getting ready, wearing a knee length grey knitted sweater and Jeans and a grey colored hijab, I went down. Izzah and I reached the mall at exactly 1 o'clock.

As Izzah was busy eating a load of breakfast we got late.

After reaching there she made me go in almost every shop and buying lots of clothes. Thanks to Allah that Rohaan had gave me his credit card. I was tired but she still wanted to buy more things for her friend's birthday party. I told her that she could go further I would wait for her. She went away and I started to walk towards cafe in mall.

As I was going , a beautiful white dress caught my attention.The beads around the neck area and the embroidery on the sleeves and dupatta was the most beautiful one. It was perfect for Izzah. I went inside the shop and took a good look on that suit. Someone came inside the shop and asked the shopkeeper to give him the best suit for his wife. I was still observing the suit but that voice was deep and I recognized it. The voice of the person I dreaded the most. My breaths became rigid and ragged. I slowly turned to look at that person.Maybe he is not that.Maybe. As I turned and look, a pair of green eyes looked directly at me. No. My breaths hitched and his cruel behavior flashed in front of my eyes. A dirty smirk formed on his face. I wanted to wipe that dirty smirk from his face.

He started to walk towards me. There were two ways. One to run away and second to be here and take my fear away. I wanted to run but my legs didn't allow me. I was shivering hard. When he was too close, his one step forward and my one step was backward. Bad for me that no shopkeeper or person was around in shop.

"How are you baby?" He said in a rough and teasing voice. I took a look to door and started towards it trying not to stumble from my shiver. HD took a hold of my wrist and jerked me back. Shiver ran down my spine but still I managed to struggle from his grip. He gripped my wrist more tightly. I shut my eyes tightly, my lower lips were trembling. I hate to be weak.

"Oh! Are you gonna cry? I heard about your marriage with your so called lover, Rohaan. The one who you wanted to make my Alisha marry. You couldn't make them marry so you married him. Great job but poor him. He had to deal a bitch like you.Sad." He said making me tremble more. I just wanted to go.

"Le-leave me." I said through my shivering lips. He snickered loudly.

"I missed you a lot you know. At least you were a good puching bag and I could take my anger on you." He said with a sad voice but then chuckled. A fear and anger rushed through my veins. I had enough of it.

" Leave me. Now." I said through gritted teeths. He chuckled.

"Trying to be fiesty. Nice." He said and laughed lightly. The a shopkeeper came and called him out.He quickly left my hand and move towards him. I ran from there. Rushed outside the mall not caring about the looks I get. I stopped at the parking lot and breathed heavily. I slide down the car and cried without making any voice.Tears trickling down my cheeks. Suddenly a sound of ring tone reached my ears. I shivered and a shriek left my mouth due to fear.

I looked at the name of caller and to my relieve it was Izzah. She asked me where I was I told her and she told me to be there. I quickly wiped my eyes and face and then after sometime she came.

"You okay?"

"Yeah."

We went home and got to know that khala and uncle had gone to someone's house and they would be late and then Izzah got a call from her friend to come over her house. She went there. Rohaan was going to come.

I took a long shower with tears trickling down my body. Shivering and trembling was still there.
