'I can't give you divorce....' Elam said and Jannat don't know why but she felt happy inside.

'Yet.' Elam completed his sentence and all happiness washed away from inside her.

'My parents really want me to get marry and your as well. If we get divorce now it will be not good for your family's reputation. If you get divorce that quick people will start thinking something is wrong with you as you got divorce twice. They will point finger on your character.

'You said about my family's reputation, my character and my happiness but what about you?' Janant asked whereas he just smile.

'It doesn't matter what I want?' Elam said and moved away her hand then walk toward book shelf to put back the book.

'But that is what matter to me most.' Janant mutter under her breath then sighed. Elam walked back towards bed whereas Janant got up from it and walked toward her side of bed. And They lay down on bed to sleep. She felt happy that he was not giving her divorce stright away but she had still 12 months with him. For next 12months she still can see him, can feel him,can be in his presence, can feel his heart beat, and mostly importantly she still is his wife and have every right over him.
