His Wife Or His Maid - S01 E29

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 29

It was fajr time when I woke up. I quickly got up but cursed under my breath. D--n!! I’ve got a bad back ache. I just hope it eases fast!! Sighing…I stood up with the support of the bed and went to the washroom to get ready.

After getting ready I came out to find him talking over the phone in a hush voice. He never saw me. Thinking he must be talking to someone I walked towards the dresser to pin my hijab. +

“I also didn’t wanted to come..but you know I can’t say no” he said.

Now this caught my attention..”Of course I love you and will always do..and I’m not interested in her at all” he said.

I know tell me something new…my mind was screaming.

“Baby..I’ve not come here for my honeymoon and that to with her…so why would I do all romantic stuffs with her??” He said.

As if I’m dying to do?? I rolled my eyes at this.

“Yes yes I know my limits and I know that the woman who is here with me is not you but my Maid..so I’ll definitely will keep distance from her” he said assuring her.

Is that girl out of her mind?? How can she think that I’ll allow him to come close to me..part of me is jumping from this thought only but other part of me is glaring at him.

I didn’t knew I was looking at him when he ended the call and our gaze locked. In that stare all I could see was him insulting me. I quickly turned my gaze and walked towards the bedroom door. “Now if you’ve woken up then please pray..it’s time” I said and walked out. +

By the time I reached stairs to go down to the prayer room..my pain was increasing. I managed to go down and went inside to find mom and Aamna there. I greeted them and they both greeted back and then we quickly started praying.

After praying, the increasing pain took my breath away to stand. I shouldn’t have slept on the ground..then where would you have slept?? With him??my mind asked. No..not at all…I hate him!!

“Beta are you okay?? You look like you’re in pain??” Mom asked caressing my head.

Oh mom!! How I wish to tell you that your son is giving me pain…”no mom, I’m perfectly fine it’s just my back is kind of sore due to traveling an all. I’ll be fine..no big issues!!” I told her smiling.

Then we all proceeded towards the kitchen. Mom decided to make Aloo parathas for the breakfast. So I started boiling the potatoes while Mom started with the dough and Aamna decided to make juice.

No doubt there are maids for every specialized work in the house..but mom loves to cook..so she does all the cooking. “Mahira beta I hope you like your maid in New York?? I have met her..when I was there once..she’s a very nice lady.” Mom asked suddenly. +

My heart stopped beating literally..”yes mom she’s a very nice lady..” I lied to her.

She smiled. “So bhabhi tell me.. up til now you must have gone out a gazillion times with bhai??”Aamna asked. “Yeah..whenever he gets time he takes me out” I lied again.

“Good morning everyone” Arhaan said as he entered the kitchen.

“Good morning bhai..how come you’re up so early and that too during your vacation??” Aamna asked.

“I had to get up just because of your annoying shrill voice that can be easily heard in my bedroom” he replied.

“Yeah right!!” Aamna said sarcastically.

“So what do we have for breakfast??” He asked me.

“Aloo paratha” I replied in a monotone.

He just nodded and went outside.

After an hour so we were done with the cooking. Aamna quickly went out to set the dining table while I and mom did last minute things. After finishing everything the maids took everything and we both went and sat with everyone. I had to sit beside him.

We quickly started eating with continuously bickering going on between Aamna and Arhaan. “So Mahira beta where do you want to go today???” Dad asked. +

“Umm..no where I want to stay in the house today” I replied.

“Rubbish…you’ve come here to Dubai only to stay in the house???” Mom said. I wish I could say the truth. My back is really hurting and If I told them they’ll bombard me with questions which will eventually lead to one lie after another. As it is my life itself has become a lie.

“Why not we go for desert safari today???” Aamna said all excited. And everyone was now looking at me for my answer even Arhaan. “Okay” I said.

Then dad told us that we all will leave by after zuhr prayer..it’s a two hour drive. +

After praying my zuhr I got up to get ready only to be reminded of my increasing pain again and again. I took out my pink legging with pink and white printed kurti I quickly changed into that. I was combing my hair when Arhaan walked in. He was wearing denim color jeans with white tshirt which was clearly showing his muscles.

“Is everything fine?? You’re looking very off today??” He asked.

“I’m fine” I said as I combed. Suddenly comb slipped out of my hand and fell down. I sighed…and without remembering I bent down to pick it up…”aaahhhhhh” I shrieked.

“Hehy what happened?? Are you alright??” He asked as he helped me in standing up.

“I said na I’m fine” I replied removing his hands away from my arm. +

“Mahira but it doesn’t look like…why did you shout then?? Is your back hurting?? Have you taken your medicine??” He asked.

“Arhaan I guess you’re not in your honeymoon..so stop with this caring!! Leave it for your honeymoon..which I guess will be very soon by seeing our broken marriage” I said and then quickly wore my hijab. I’m really not that much a make up person, I do wear makeup but only there where it is necessary.

As for today I had put sunscreen which is a must. Then I applied some compact and put some kohl in my eyes completing it with my strawberry lip balm. I was ready..and while I was getting ready..he was right behind my back shooting daggers at me.

I turned towards him “snap out of your day dream and let’s go” I said and walked past him.

As we walked down everyone was waiting for us. We all walked towards the car. Dad, mom and Aamna went in one car leaving me alone with Arhaan. I hissed my teeth in anger and went to sit on the passenger seat.

He quickly got in and started driving. “Why are you being so cold?? It isn’t the first time you saw me talking to her??” He asked, his jaw clenched.

“And why are you acting so soft?? that you actually care about me??” I hissed. Yes, I was angry not because him talking to Laiba but because how can he flip so easily!!

“I guess we decided to act a happy loving couple??” He asked.

“And I guess we agreed to act only in front of your family and not alone in the room??” I asked him back.

He didn’t reply back and I was thankful to that because I was in no mood to answer his stupid questions. For the rest of the journey we both didn’t talk to each other only the radio was playing. +

After a long drive we reached the spot. Mom, dad and Aamna was already waiting for us. “So how was your drive bhabhi??” She asked mischievously. I shooed her!! She started laughing.

“Lets go then…our ride is waiting for us” dad said. Aamna was jumping up and down in excitement..making me and mom laugh!!!

The car was big..dad sat in the passenger seat. While mom and Aamna sat at the back and me and Arhaan sat at the back of them. I was regretting this from now only!!

The driver told us to buckle up and we did. At first the car was slow but gradually it took its speed and I was like we are so dead!! The car took many unexpected turns and jumps making my pain more increase…I was so d--n tightly clutching the seat. Aamna was shouting and well mom she was reciting every surah…

I looked at Arhaan and yes he was looking at me.. I averted by gaze but then suddenly car took a huge left turn and I landed on Arhaan. How romantic!!! My mind thought.

The seat belt which I put was very loose..I forgot to tight it up before buckling so now I was on Arhaan and he was staring at me as if I have murdered someone. I quickly regained myself and got back to my seat..Aamna and mom chuckling away..and yes Aamna even did a wolf whistle!! I glared at her. And Arhaan was blushing..oh! How cute..I closed the shutter of my mind.

And the ride came to an end…we all got out of the car. I was wobbling, I couldn’t stand properly..he caught my hand “hey easy huh!! Drink some water” he said. After I was sure that I can now drink water without vomiting I drank!! +

Our next destination was the camel ride. I sighed..I didn’t wanted to sit it will increase my pain more. Why Arhaan why you have left me with no option??? I so badly wanted to tell mom that my back is paining because your son made me slept on the ground which resulted this..my Spinal is okay Allahamdulilah..but still it’s paining!!

But no..I cant say so..because if I’ll say then I’ll have to tell them why we don’t share bed, then why we won’t share room and eventually everything. But seeing the happy face of mom, dad, Aamna and Arhaan..I declined!! Masha Allah Arhaan is so carefree when he’s with them.

“Com’on bhabhi…Camels are waiting for us” Aamna shouted. She was more excited than us as if she has come to Dubai for the first time and not me. I chuckled at her childishness.. “Coming” I shouted back.

Aamna decided that she’ll sit alone on one Camel while mom and dad will sit on one leaving me and Arhaan to decide. I didn’t wanted to sit with him so I said I’ll also sit alone earning a huge clap from Aamna but my happiness soon died because Arhaan said that we’ll both sit together and walked towards the Camel leaving me gaping at him.

Aamna started cheering for us while mom winked at me. Really mom??? I huffed in annoyance. “After you mam” Arhaan said like a gentleman in fact he bow down a bit also. I glared at him.

“No you sit first..” I said.

“No you..because you’re going to sit for the first time and if you lose your balance you’ll fell down and I’m telling you it hurts really very bad” he said in authorative tone.

“Yes because he has already tasted the feeling of falling down from the Camel” Aamna giggled and he glared at her.

“Yes, two years back when he came to Dubai we came here for the Camel ride…and as he keeps on showing of he sat proudly on the Camel and right after five minutes he was on the sand…that was a sight to behold!!” Mom said giggling “and for the whole week he couldn’t walk due to the pain..” Mom was laughing.

“Mom..you too???” He said annoyingly. I was laughing now. Dad also joined us seeing the annoyed look of Arhaan. +

“If you all are done making fun of me then can we start the ride??” He asked raising his eyebrows!!

Quickly we got up on the Camel and he was sitting right behind me I was easily getting a whiff of his perfume..My my oh my!! I’m so much in love with this perfume…I shouted at my mind. Slowly and steadily the Camel stood up and our shouting also got higher with the Camel.

I was so d--n scared that I was not opening my eyes only. “If you’ll not open your eyes then how will you see the beautiful desert” he said from the back. I quickly opened my eyes.

Aamna was enjoying alot, Mom and dad were having there own personal time..it feels good to see so much love now also. Masha Allah. I was so lost in my own thought that I lost my balance and I was falling back when suddenly his chest hit my back..and he clutched my waist tightly. We were so close that I could even feel his breath on my neck. +

“Told ya” he whispered softly in my ear. He even kissed my ear lobe sending shivers all over my body. I froze and he inhaled my breath. “Ooooo someone is in a romantic mood!! But please wait till you get home” Aamna shouted. Making me all red.

After the ride we went for dinner. I could now barely sit or stand due to my immense back pain. I so badly wanted to get home but this traffic!!! After an hour later we reached home. We all were very much tired and after wishing shabba khair we all went to our room.

I only know how I prayed my Isha. After praying I was now trying to put ointment on my back but due to pain I can’t even sit straight and put. “You shouldn’t have said for desert safari and Camel ride” Arhaan said as he came out of the washroom. He was now wearing lower and a plain tee. +

“I guess we decided to act like a happy loving couple??? And if I had told them then they would have eventually came to know about Me and You” I said. He sighed. By looking at him only make me blush. Memories came flooded in my mind of that Camel ride. How his kiss has made me shiver making me alive!!

“Earth to Mahira” he said clicking his fingers. I looked at him confused. “What were you thinking?? I’ve been calling you”.

“Nothing..uhh..yeah just give me five minutes..and I’ll go to my mattress” I said.

“No..you don’t have to sleep on the ground. You can sleep here..I’m sure we can maintain distance” he said. Suddenly all shyness came in me. Me and him??? Together on one bed??? Haye!! I was waiting for this day only…now I’ll sleep in his arms!! No..you wont. Yes I will..No we’ll maintain distance. I was debating with my mind.

“Give me the ointment I’ll put” he said. But before I could say anything to him he took the ointment from my hand. He sat behind me..I could actually feel how close we are right now. If Laiba would see us right now she’ll definitely faint. Uff..why are you thinking about her at this moment?? My mind shouted.

He was about to lift my top when I caught his hand “Arhaan please”. “Shh..let me do this” he said. He slowly lifted my top and started putting the ointment and I shivered under his touch. +

After putting the ointment he caught my waist and brought me more close to him. I was now breathing hard!! He hugged me from the back and I froze again under his hug..but soon gave in his touch. His face was now in my messy hair and I couldn’t open my eyes. He kissed the side of my head..”I’m sorry for the morning” he said. And I let out a shaky breath.
