Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 40

Arhaan POV

I was so tired by the time I reached home. I loosened up my tie as I entered the house and was surprised to see Mahira. She was really waiting for me. I quickly glanced at the clock and saw the time it was two thirty. The meeting went this long?? +

“Assalamualaikum” She said. I nodded.

“Freshen up and I’ll set the table” she said. I again nodded and went up to my room. I quickly took shower and wore my lower with a tee. Ran down a hand in my hair and went downstairs. She had already set the table and was pouring water. +

I went towards the table and sat down. She served the food and sat opposite of me. We ate in silence. “Where’s Sani?? Sleeping??” I asked.

“No..she’s not in home.” She replied.

“Why?? It’s late!! She should have been home uptil now!!” I asked.

“She has gone to New Jersey regarding some stuff related to her internship. So she’ll be staying there today.” She replied.

“Okay” I nodded.

“Mahira we need to talk” I finally told her. +

“Yes..we need to” she replied.

“Look about yesterday I know I should have given you a chance to explain and I truly wanted to but I didn’t gave you because you don’t deserve to explain yourself. When you raised your hands on me at that time I was shouting at you to just listen to me once but you ignored my request and did what you wanted to. And I guess now you must have understood that how it feels if someone not listen to your whole story and judges you from the half of the story. Though when I came to know about the truth from Sani I felt bad and cursed for not listening to you. But you know it all happens for t-t for tat!!” She said.

“Mahira I’m sorry for that..I had never been angry that much in my whole life. I don’t know how I lost my temper??” I said honestly.

“So next time when you’ll lose your temper you can also kill someone?? Because you again will not be in your sense??” She taunted.

“No I’ll never kill someone”

“But you’ll raise your hand??”

“I’m sorry for that”

“And do you think that sorry is enough for what you have done to me?? You have practically spoiled my whole life Mr.Arhaan Sheikh!!” She snapped keeping the fork loudly on the table.

“I understand..”

“Oh yeah?? So now you finally say that you understand?? Okay..tell me what do you understand?? I left my last year of college just to become your wife while you’re a CEO. I left my family back in Canada while you are here enjoying yourself. I have only known one thing that your husband is your everything and you are dating Laiba. I work here like a Maid and you are enjoying your head position. And the list is endless Arhaan..what do you understand??” She was now shaking in anger.

“I know I had made mistakes and I’m ready to rectify it” I said.

“And how?? Will you leave Laiba and come back to me?? Will we be like all other happy married couples??” She asked.

“Mahira this is unfair” I said.

“Living with your wife is unfair?? Being a husband is unfair?? Great!!!” She said. +

“I didn’t meant to say that”

“I understood what you meant to say”

“You do love Laiba alot?? Right??” She asked.

I didn’t know what to say to her. Of course I love Laiba but I can’t deny that I’m having weird feelings towards Mahira. No…I love Laiba alot. She is my life.

“Yes I do” before I could stop the words have already been said.

“I knew it. So what the hell did you wanted to talk to me??” She glared. +

“Mahira I just wanted us to become normal” I said.

“The hell we will!!! First of all there’s no Us there’s only You and Me” she said pointing me and her.

“Fine” I said.

“Before saying yes to marry me why didn’t you told your dad about Laiba??” She asked.

“Dad knew everything about Laiba that’s why he threatened me to marry you or I will not get the CEO position” I replied running a hand in my hair.

“How selfish of you Arhaan?? Just for the sake of being a CEO you spoiled two lives?? Mine and Laiba’s?? Forget about me..you didn’t even thought once also about her before saying yes to me??” She accused me.

“I did thought okay?? Not once but million times and then I decided to marry you. You don’t know anything Mahira..how hard I have studied and worked just to achieve this position where I am now standing” I said.

“Everyone work hard for something Arhaan but you chose the wrong way. In order to attain your dream you sacrificed two lives!!” She said.

“No..I didn’t it was meant to happen this way” I said. +

“Okay fine..then tell me how long will it go like this?? You dating Laiba and I being your Maid??” She asked.

“It will end soon..I’ll soon find a way” I said massaging my temples.

“How by divorcing me?? Have you even thought what will everyone say?? What will your so called media people will say about me after they come to know about the truth?? They’ll not call me your Maid or your wife but they’ll surely call me your Mistress” She shouted.

“Mahiraaaa” this time my voice was louder than her. How can she say that?? I have never thought about her like that..

“By screaming the truth will not change Arhaan. Because Laiba will be given the title of the love of your life, soulmate and what not when you will confront in front of everyone. But when people will ask you about me that who was I?? What will you say Arhaan??

You’ll say that I was your Maid and they will accept?? No..never they’ll keep on asking about me. And the truth is you will never accept me as your wife!! No matter how much you deny Arhaan but we are living together under one roof. Outsiders don’t know that we don’t share one room and even if you will say them this..will they really gonna believe you?? Tell me Arhaan..answer me” She demanded.

Truth is I never thought about this. I never ever once also thought in this matter. What will I say to them about Mahira?? They’ll surely judge her and will definitely call her what not. And why?? just because she’s living in the d--n house with me!!

There will be many questions that I might had married her only for pleasure or what not!! You can never shut someone’s mouth. Nobody will say anything negative about Laiba because she’ll be by my side everywhere. And I have hardly been seen anywhere with Mahira. Mahira will sure be the center of hot gossip and scandal..!!

“Now there’s no need to think Arhaan, this you should have thought before. Do you know why I have not tell anything to my parents because I don’t want to make them worry. Atleast they are happy that their daughter is happy over here. And you know Arhaan even if you get rid off me then also I cant go back to my parents. Why?? Because you can never make anyone understand your situation. People will think what they want to..and I’m the only child of them..they’ll die Arhaan..they’ll die if they’ll come to know.

Only one stain is enough in a woman life to totally destroy her and here I being clean also have so many stains!! Now you know Arhaan how badly you have spoiled my life..and with that you have also risked my parents life and their reputation.” She was crying..

I really felt bad for her. Shit!! I have never thought in this matter only. I surely have screwed her life..d--n!!

“Mahira please…” She cut me off.

“No Arhaan now no more please!! I’m done with you..and don’t worry sooner or later I’ll go away from your life. And Mr.Arhaan Sheikh I will not forgive you..because the mistakes you have done can be forgiven but the pain you have given to me can never be forgiven. You’ll have to Earn it!!” With that she went to her room.

I was shocked…I didn’t know what to do next or what to say?? I couldn’t even move forward..as if my legs were stuck on the floor!! I have spoiled her life..and now I can’t even ask her for forgiveness because no person will forgive me after going through all this.

What should I do?? If I leave her then also she’ll not be happy the only way to make her happy is by ditching Laiba. But how can I do that?? If I want to see Mahira happy then Laiba will suffer and if I go to Laiba the Mahira will suffer. Uhhh..what should I do??

I don’t know how much I drank last night but now I’m facing the consequences, right now I’m having the worst hangover. I looked to my side table for Aspirin but was shocked to not to see it there. Every time Mahira keeps it over there but today she hasn’t. Shit!! +

I quickly ran to the washroom and searched the cabinets for first aid box and quickly found it. I took out Aspirin and took it. Now I only wanted to have one thing a big mug of strong coffee. I was waiting for Mahira to bring up my coffee because usually on Sundays I drink coffee in my bed..but today it’s way past time and she hasn’t brought up.

Freak…I forgot about what happened yesterday. I quickly got up from my bed and ran towards her room and opened her door. She was not in her room..where was she?? D--n man!!! I quickly ran down and went into the kitchen she was not even there.

My hangover long forgotten. I rushed outside the main gate and there she was playing with a kitten. I felt so relieved after seeing her. Wait…where did that kitten came from?? As long as I remember I don’t like to keep pets.

“Where did this kitten came from??” I asked the guards.

“We don’t know Sir but Mam found it on the front door.” The guard replied and I nodded.

“Mahira I don’t like keeping pets.” I said. She didn’t even looked at me. She gave the kitten to the guard and told him that her mother was in the backyard so he should leave this kitten over there. Now when did the whole family came here and started living???

She didn’t even spare me a glance and walked inside. Later that day..she was in the kitchen making something and I was sitting on one of the sofa and was just flipping the pages of a magazine. The doorbell rang and I went to see.

“Surprise…Surprise”

Honestly it wasn’t a surprise but a big shock, I turned to look at Mahira and all the colors have drained away from her face. She was looking in horror. This was the last surprise that I would have wanted to expect.

“Assalamualaikum”

“Mom, Dad, Aamna???????” I said with shock.

“Oh thank you for telling our names” Aamna said smiling and came to hug me. It feels so good to hug my little sister. Mahira was still standing there and looking at us with a blank expression. I motioned her to snap out of her day dream and come and greet them. She quickly regained her position and hurriedly came to greet them.

“Assalamualaikum. What a pleasant surprise??!!” She said a bit confused.

“Walekumasalam beta..oh!! We just wanted to see both of your reactions and this was the best reaction we got” Mom said laughing and gave her a hug.

“But still suddenly?? Dad everything alright??” Now I was worried.

“Yes son everything’s fine. As it is we had to come to attend the charity function so we decided to come a little earlier and live with my son and daughter.” He said smiling. I gave them both a hug and I could feel someone’s glaring on my back.

I so gonna be dead, I forgot to tell her that every year my whole family fly down here to attend this event.

“You all freshen up and take some rest” I said and they nodded.

“Bhabhi which one is your room.??” Aamna asked excitedly. Mahira was again stunned. I again forgot now we have to share the room. If looks could kill then I would have been dead.

“Aamna just go up and take any room from left hand side.” I said. She nodded and went up..

“You knew it right??” She asked straightaway.

“Look can we talk about this in my room??” I asked glancing around.

“Oh!! So now you are scared that your family can hear us. You know what I don’t give a d--n!! One day or the other they’ll come to know the truth..so why act??” She said keeping her hands on her hips.

“Fine then, I knew one thing that they will come here to attend the event but I didn’t knew that they will come this soon..even I myself is shocked. Why do you always accuse me for everything??” I asked.

“Because you haven’t left me with another choice” she said and shrugged. God what happened to that Mahira who always kept quiet no matter what happened. This girl here in front of me is behaving like a hitler. Why has she lost all the emotions??

“Mahira where are maids?? Are they on leave today.. I need to talk to them” Mom came and asked by looking around. Freak..how can I be so busy in my life that I forgot all little little things??

“Mom..you can talk to me about what you need because there’s no Maid in this house In fact I’m The Maid Of This House.” She said looking at me and smirked. I was stunned.

“What are you saying??” Mom was shocked. +

“Yes mom..because your son didn’t like the work done by maids hands so he asked them to leave” she said smartly.

“What rubbish?? Arhaan why have you not kept maid?? This is so not acceptable Arhaan..how can you treat her like this?? Up til now your father hasn’t treat me like this..and you??? You have totally gone out of hand..I don’t wanna hear any single excuse from you. Hire a Maid right now for this house or I’ll kick you out of this house. Oh!! I have a better idea I would love to see you work as a Maid!! How can you make Mahira work???

She’s your wife, she has some dignity and position. If you are the heir and Aaamna is the heiress of this company then Mahira is the Queen of this company!! Did you forgot this?? Have you forgot that her single decision can throw you out of your own company!! We have always treat Mahira as our daughter and not our daughter in law. And nobody in this family has ever treat the daughter in law like this?? Apologize to her right now Mr.Arhaan Sheikh” Mom snapped.

Mom was definitely very angry because until and unless she is angry or she orders then only she take my full name. And did she said Apologize?? To Mahira?? Great just awesome this day is so awesome. Note the sarcasm!!

I looked at Mahira and she was standing beside Mom with her head hung low. She was acting so innocent and naive in front of Mom. What a drama queen!!!

“Didn’t you heard what I said??” Mom asked.

“Yes mom” I said and took a deep breath. “I’m really sorry Mahira for whatever I have done with you so far” I said. Though mom asked me to apologize but I had apologized with all honesty.

“No Arhaan you don’t have to apologize. As it is I enjoyed working.” She said sweetly. rolled my eyes.

“Come with me Mahira” Mom said and they both turned and started walking. Mahira turned back to me winked and smirked…with that she went away!! Is she bipolar???
