《My One And Only》38
Advertisement
I was in my room, it was 2 in the morning and I couldn't sleep.. Whatever happened in the evening, it was all too much to handle.. Again and again my mind goes back to think what could have happened with me if I didn't have haadi by my side,what if I never went to Delhi,what if I never met Haadi.. I could have became the second wife of a person who doesn't even have respect for women.. And then probably a divorced woman living her life alone..
Arsam have told hania that haadi and he is staying in their house.. Which is on a five minute walking distance..
After all that drama happened in the evening, tayaabbu and his family left our house.. And I have no idea where they have gone.
My phone beeped..
I received a text from haadi.
Why Is he still awake...
" I replied
I got another text after a while.
"But just now you were saying you aren't okay and you can't sleep and suddenly 😄... Okay good night love.. I'll see you in the morning.. Tc bye"
-------
Last night, I slept too late that its 11 in the morning when I woke up with the voices coming in my room.
Now what? Can I ever have a normal morning?
"O my god.. Is haadi here? "
I got up, freshened up and walked down the stairs quickly
I peeped inside the living room but no one was there..
"Looking for someone? " I heard arsam voice from behind while I was peeping in the living room
I quickly turned with a jump..
"Yeah? No.. No.. Not at all.. I was looking for.. " I thought for an excuse for a second.. " I was looking for baba... Yeah" I sigh .."kaha hain wo? "
Before he could reply, I saw baba coming there.
Baba came to us.. " Arisha... Thik ho tum?" Baba asked
"Jee baba.. Mai bilkul theek hu" I said giving him a side hug.
"Beta mujhe bohot afsos hai kal jo kuch bhi hua."
"Arey uncle jaane bhi dein na ab is baat ko... Aap bas ye batae ki aapne kya socha us baare mein" Arsam said.

And I just looked at him wondering what he is talking about.
"Haan maine socha us baare mein.. Mujhe lagta hai jo haadi keh raha hai wahi sahi hai is waqt" Baba replied.
I still don't know what it is about..
"Kya sahi rahega.. Matlab? Kis baare mein? " I asked out of curiosity.
"Tumse matlab.... Tumhari baat nahi hai.. It's men talk" Arsam said to me in front of baba... And I saw baba smiled on that..
And what is this men talk.. Huh? Men talk? Seriously?
"Arsam.. " I tried to threaten him through eyes.
"Arey yaar.. Kya ho gaya hai.. Uncle chale.. Humein bht kaam haina.. " He said and then turned to baba.. And then quickly left from there with baba..
"What the hell is happening? And where is haadi? " I thought to myself when I heard mama calling my name..
-----
Today, me and hania went for shopping.. I decided to go back Delhi for my License and hania has some important events in her college so we both will be going back together..
But the strange part is haadi came home in the morning today but he didn't met me.. He sat with baba and was talking to him only.. And when I asked about what they are talking.. They changed the topic.. Even arsam did the same.. What these guys are filling in my baba's head..
"Kya ho gaya bhai.. Ab kya soch rahi ho" Hania asked.
"Yaar, ye haadi aur arsam na baba se kuch baat kr rhe the subah.. "
"Toh? "
"Toh ye ki mujhe nahi bata rahe jab maine poocha.. Aesa bhi kya hai ab"
I told frustrated.
"Haadi bhai bhi nahi bata rahe? " She asked.
"Nahi na.. Wahi toh.. Unko toh batana chaiye na.."
"Haan.... Tumne arsam se poocha? Usse poocho.... Wo toh bata hi dega"
"Arsam? Wo toh sabse bada wala hai.. Maine usse poocha toh bol raha it's men talk, mai nahi bataunga.. "
"Hainn? Arsam ke pass kabse secrets safe rehne lage.. "
"Yaar mujhe nahi pata.. Chalo baba se poochte hai " I said and walked to door of room in hurry...
But collided in someone.
"Haadi bhai? " Hania got up straight quickly..

I just looked at him with straight face.
"Aap mujhe bataengi itni jaldi kis baat ki hai aapko madam? " Haadi asked with a smirk..
" Hania.. Tell this man..i am not talking to him" I said to hania
"Lekin kyun? " Haadi and hania asked in unison.
I eyed hania.. And she zipped her lips with fingers.
And turned to look at haadi..
"Arey tell me na.. " Haadi pulled me to him..
"Nothing... Why are you here? " I asked.
"Here? " He asked
"In my room.. " I rolled my eyes.
"To let you guys know that, you and hania, both are going back with us tomorrow morning.. "
"With you? "
"Yeah.. Pack your bags, and get ready by 7 tomorrow" He said.
"Fine " I said
"Good night.. Bye.. See you tomorrow... Get up on time..dont be late okay" He kissed the side of my head and walked out without looking at me..
What was that?
"And hania.. Can you Come with me for a second.. " He said while walking out.
"Jee bhai.. Aai" Hania said and followed him.
"What? That's it? All he wanted to say was to inform me about tomorrow flights timing.. He didn't talked to me from morning and now.. When he did, it was just to inform me.. Urgh.. Whatever.. Fine.. Okay.. I am okay.. Just play it your way Mr Haadi.. "
I quickly went to washroom and changed into my PJs..
After sometime, hania came back in the room but when I asked her about what he was saying.. She said, haadi was just asking about why I am mad at him.... Fine, so now he will message me i midnight to ask why I am mad.
--------
Next morning, I woke up early..as haadi and arsam were coming to pick us for airport. I quickly checked my phone to see if there is any message for me.. But there wasn't any.
What is wrong with him..
Anyways, we both were ready to go and we're waiting for them this time..
Baba's phone rang and it was haadi..
He told baba that he will be here in fifteen minutes..
Why is he calling baba.. He should have called me I guess.. But it's okay.
.
.
.
.
Finally, we heard the car horn.. They are here.
Haadi looked at me but I started looking here and there.. How can he even expect me to welcome him normally when he was the one started to behave rude.
He was in my house yesterday, but I was feeling like he is out of the country..
After sometime, we were in the car.. And Haadi was sitting in the passenger seat with the driver.. While me, hania and arsam were in back.
"Aru tumhara face kyun bana hua hai, ab toh sab theek ho gya na" Arsam said.
"Tum toh chup hi raho arsam" I said
"Arey.. Maine kya kiya"
"Usne kya kiya hai.. Jo tum usko daant rahi ho" Hania said.. And I was like what? Is it hania..
"Hania? Ye kya ho gaya.. Neend me ho kya tum? " Arsam asked.
"Ya shayad tabiyat nahi theek tumhari" Arsam added and checked her forehead with the back of his hand.
Hania jerked off his hand quickly " Hato peeche.. Mai thik hu bilkul.."
"Nahi meri behan.. Koi toh baat zaroor hai.. Tumhe kabse arsam ke liye bura lagne laga.. " I asked.
And arsam face was lit up...
"Yaar aru.. Mai bas ye keh rahi hu ki tum arsam ko kyun daant rahi.. Wo toh bas pooch raha tha.. But anyways.. You guys carry on.. Mai kuch nahi keh rahi ab.. " She said and started looking in her phone.
At the airport, Haadi pulled me aside by my arm..
"Chorhe mujhe" I said.
"Kya hua hai tumhe.." He asked
"Kuch nahi, neend aa rahi hai mujhe.. "
"Oww toh madam ko neend aa rahi h..bas yahi baat hai ya aur kuch? "
"Aur koi baat nahi hai.. "
"Accha listen.. These are your tickets" Arsam said and handed us the tickets.. And walked back to hania.
I looked at the ticket, destination was SHIMLA
"Haadi, I think there is a mistake.. Show me your ticket" I asked him.
It was SHIMLA.
Haadi grabbed my hand and said "Koi mistake nahi hai.. We are going to shimla.. "

The Bettor's Oath [A Dark-Modern LITRPG]
We live in a world where the rabbit’s foot helped win the game. Following that logic, tell me, what happens when the odds are flipped against the strong and a god rises to give the weak their right for revenge?~Last segment of the First Monarch's speech before the Lablanca battle. Lothar Ardolf, an alcoholic 27 years old high school teacher, was one of the many men who failed to catch up to life.When everyone around him worked to leave a mark behind, he idled away between states of short sobriety and static numbness, hoping that one day everything would resolve itself. It took little to wake him up. Only a life, soul, and body changing experience.Thrust into a world of cheap power and tyrannical governments, where a man could rival what is true and alter what is false, he was tasked by an elusive being with befalling titans.He wakes up in a prison with a path laid in front of him; one that would challenge all the resolve he has and more. Intertwined in a convoluted scheme of politics and old grudges, he will need to learn how to wield his new powers in order to escape before the secrets of the prison threaten to unravel him.However, he shortly realizes that his new faded fantasy was not a fairy tale. All that awaits him in the end, for standing against the world, is death. That is, if the three sided coin lands on heads. If it lands on tails... The shadowbane army rises. ...... This story is a neo-noir dark LITRPG in a world similar to earth. Take the tags seriously. I've been working on this project for 6 months and my MC is a bit unconventional, so I'm excited to introduce you all to him. Beware, it will be a slow-burn, so please be patient. The main plot will start to kick up at around chapter 15. I will be writing about racists, rapists, cultists and horrible humans. I do not condone or excuse their behavior or choice of words but the first arc will be in a prison and (some) prisoners don't mince their words. My MC doesn't adapt to the new world immediately because that is not realistic at all. It takes time and because of his personality, it will take more than a system to convince him to do someone else's bidding ;) Each chapter will have around 3000+ (give or take) words. I will be updating 2-3 times a week (depending on how busy I am with work and/or college) when I'm done publishing my backlog (Which is very big, 40,000+ words). **Each comment gets rep! Cover art by @tahraart on Instagram. Link to discord: https://youtu.be/91wX0NRjJqg Have a good one, Pistol. **** THE STORY IS ON TEMPORARY HIATUS. WE WILL BE BACK IN 2 MONTHS. SORRY EVERYONE.
