Chapter 23: Chapter 23

Mikaeel's pov

The most annoying feeling in this world is when you are married but still, you have to sleep hugging a pillow, not your wife. And, what's the reason. Because My wife is angry with me. Oh, Allah! I don't know why every time I fucked up and my stubborn wife kept stretching it like chewing gum. I did well by ignoring her last night. She should also feel how it feels to get ignored.

It's early in the morning and opening my eyes I wanted to see my wife's beautiful face but do you know what I saw? I saw a crow crowing sitting on the window. That's why I woke up so early hearing its harsh sound.

" Did I give you the responsibility to wake me up?" I shouted and it flew away getting scared.

I thought to sleep for another hour but I couldn't. I was getting impatient to see my wife. Last night she was looking so stunning that I felt like grabbing her tightly and kissing her hard. But, I have to control my emotions.

Coming out of the room I walked toward Ziya's room to see what's my wife doing. I can't start my day without seeing her face. I never thought that I will become that much dependent on her. Peeping inside the room I found my wife lying on the bed. She was back facing me so I couldn't see her face.

" Instead of behaving like flies which roam around the sweets, why don't you just go inside and meet her?" Ziya's voice startled me and immediately I looked behind.

Keeping my face straight I replied," I was just walking. Morning walk."

She asked raising her one brow," In the corridor?"

I ignored her questions and that's when I noticed some medicine in her hands. I became alerted noticing the medicine. Ziya is looking fine then why is she holding the medicine. Is everything alright? Is my wifey ok?"

" What are you doing with the medicines? Is everything alright?" I questioned snatching the medicines in my hands.

I was checking the medicines when she informed me," Bhabhi isn't feeling well from last night."

That one sentence left her mouth and I didn't waste another second. Entering the room hurriedly I rushed towards Aurin and heard her sneezing continuously. Noticing me she tried to lay down but I held her in my embrace sitting beside her.

My eyes roamed all over her face and I felt my heart stinging in my chest. Her eyes were looking red as well as her cheeks like she cried a lot. Her runny nose and messy hair were telling me how much suffering she is.

" How did you catch a cold?" I questioned but she remained silent looking down.

Ziya answered on her behalf," The whole night she spent on the balcony crying her eyes out. And, everything happened because of you."

She said the last part angrily glaring at me and I didn't say anything to her. Ok, I admit that I should have sorted out everything last night when Aurin took a step. Again, I fucked up!

Placing my thumb under Aurin's chin I made her look into my eyes. She looked in another direction when I caress her cheeks gently. She diverted her eyes at me and gave me a sorrowful look which shook me from inside.

" Let's see a doctor. You have a high fever," I said gently tucking a few strands of her hair behind her ear.

She answered meekly," It's not needed. I will be fine once I take the medicines."

" Can you just put your stubbornness aside for a few moments?" I asked rudely and saw her eyes getting blurry with water. Hey, Allah! Why this girl is so emotional? I didn't scold her.

Kissing her forehead I apologised for the last time," I am sorry for my behaviour. I didn't mean that word."

I finished my sentence and she jumped on me bursting into tears. I circled my large hands around her petite body and she tightened the hug. She started soaking my shirt with her tears & runny nose and I let her.

" How.... could.....you....ignore.... me like this? Didn't..... you.......miss.....me.... even for one second?" She questioned hiccupping when I started stroking her wavy hair which I love the most.

I replied softening my voice," Then, why do you think I was roaming in front of Ziya's room like flies?"

Saying that I looked at Ziya and she bit her tongue. I signalled her to leave us alone and giving a mischievous look to me she left hurriedly.

" Don't ignore me again. Do you understand? Next time I won't even stay in Ziya's room. I will go wherever I want," She threatened sounding like a kid and I controlled my laughter somehow.

I wonder what will happen when she will give birth to a mini version like her. Please, everybody, start praying for me from this onwards. How I will handle two children at a time?

" You are so mean. Last night I did everything for you with so much hope and you didn't even look at me! How could you? Is it my fault that I love you so much or you don't like getting loved so much? Then, tell me what should I do so that I can love you less," She questioned I squeezed her soft body in my embrace.

I asked stroking her hair," So, are you done complaining? Shall we go now?"

" And, don't even think of loving me less," I added lifting her in bridal style.

She confessed snuggling into me," I love you."

" (I love you) whole to the power infinity. Are you happy now?" I asked and she rolled her eyes slapping my chest playfully.

I replied going outside," See, you women are never satisfied."

A week later

Author's pov

Laying on the bed Mikaeel was kissing Aurin passionately. They were on their birth suit and she was over him. Holding her tightly he continued giving sloppy kisses all over her neck and jaw.

" Umm......I love these spongy balls," Mikaeel commented taking one of her nipples inside his mouth and Aurin moaned.

Placing her on the bed he hovered over her and started rubbing his body with her. Aurin arched her back when he continued going downwards very close to her heated core. Plunging a finger inside her he licked her sensitive bud and Aurin lost it. She started crawling her hands and feet with pure ecstasy. Closing her eyes she moaned loudly whenever his tongue was invading her hungry core.

" Ahh.......please.........." Aurin requested feeling her orgasm getting near and Mikaeel smirked seeing her reaction.

After better foreplay, Mikaeel couldn't control himself anymore. Spreading her legs he positioned his manhood at her entrance when she noticed him rolling a condom around his shaft. He doesn't want to take any kind of chance.

" Don't use it. Let's have a baby," She said looking at him with hopeful eyes.

He replied thrusting into her," We.....already.......talked.......about.......it.....let's.......not.......spoil.......the........mood."

" I want.......a......baby," She said breathing heavily.

He replied inhaling her scent," I......won't......share..........your.......cuddles.....with.......anyone........."

" Are you a kid? What are......you saying?" She questioned trying to cope with his bulldozer.

He answered growling," Yeah. Your baby.....See, you got a baby already........Don't......ask......for....another"

After a wild lovemaking session, Aurin slept on Mikaeel's chest. He didn't sleep yet and continued thinking about some office matters while stroking Aurin's wavy hair. He likes putting his fingers inside her hair. They are silky and smooth.

Mikaeel was in deep thoughts when his phone started vibrating. With one hand he took the phone and found that it was none other than Maryam. He noticed the time was already 1 a.m. and cut the call. His phone vibrated again and seeing Aurin stirring in her sleep he received the call.

" Did you see the time before calling me?" He questioned sounding rude and lowering his voice. He doesn't want to disturb Aurin.

Maryam replied politely," I am sorry to disturb you. I just wanted to invite you to a party. Our company launched a new product so..................."

" Fine. I will join," Mikaeel replied cutting the call before Maryam could finish her sentence.

Mikaeel didn't share Maryam's matter with Aurin till now. The way Aurin reacts to every small matter, he feels that she will set the whole world into the fire if she gets to know about Maryam. She will obviously tell him to cancel this deal which he can't. It will cost him billions to cancel such a great deal. So, he kept his mouth mum.

Also, he doesn't want to bring up another matter which will increase the distance between him and Aurin. Since Maryam assured him that she won't cross her limits so he didn't feel the necessity to share this matter with Aurin.

It's not like the feelings he had for Maryam have completely vanished in the air. He can handle his feelings and he is a very realistic man. The matter is he doesn't know why he failed to recognise this Maryam. She isn't the Maryam he used to know. The Maryam he used to know had an innocent demeanour but this Maryam looks rough and cold.

" What I am even thinking at this hour?" Mikaeel mumbled laying beside Aurin and closing his eyes hugging her tightly.

The next day

Maryam was at the party and waiting impatiently for Mikaeel's arrival. Mikaeel did arrive but her smile didn't last long seeing Aurin with Mikaeel. She felt her heart shattering into million pieces but still, she kept her face neutral.

She walked toward Mikaeel when he introduced her to Aurin," Wifey, meet my business partner Mrs Shamsi."

" And, Mrs Shamsi. Meet my wife Aurin Sheikh," He introduced Aurin to Maryam who has already remembered that shopping mall incident.

Aurin mumbled having an annoyed expression," You!!"

" Umm......Mrs Sheikh, I apologize for my behaviour that day. I hope you won't keep malice inside your heart," Maryam said politely but Aurin was already enraged.

She snapped at Maryam," You should apologise to your kids, you abusive brute! Where are the kids? I swear I will call the police right now. ............."

" What the hell is happening?" Mikaeel questioned confusingly feeling the tension between them and he was scared from inside as well. Did Aurin come to that Maryam was his past?

After that Aurin narrated the whole incident that happened between her and Maryam a few days back. Mikaeel was stunned to hear that Maryam was abusing her children. He looked at Maryam in disbelief who was looking uncomfortable.

" Mrs Sheikh. The kids are mine and I should be strict to teach them discipline. You misunderstood my behaviour," Maryam said calmly but Aurin wasn't in the mood to hear anything.

She continued insulting Maryam with a loud voice which captured everyone's attention. People started whispering about Maryam and her forehead started sweating.

Seeing Maryam getting embarrassed Mikaeel whispered in Aurin's ear," Let go of the matter, wifey. Her kids, her life, her choice. Let her do whatever she wants to do with her children. We shouldn't poke in other's business."

Aurin glared at him when he said lowering his voice," Everyone is looking at us. Let's not create a drama."

Then, Aurin didn't say anything further and let go of this matter just like Mikaeel suggested. After that, everyone got busy talking to each other and enjoying the party except Maryam. Sitting on a couch she continued having drinks recalling Aurin's insults.

" How are the kids?" Aurin questioned catching Maryam's attention who was lost in deep thoughts.

Maryam replied with her startled voice," Oh! Mrs Sheikh.... Umm.. The kids....are fine."

Aurin remained silent when Maryam said politely," Please, be seated."

Aurin sit down but remained silent without glancing at Maryam. She looked at Mikaeel with admiring eyes that isn't unnoticed by Maryam.

" You love your husband a lot, right?" Maryam questioned catching Aurin's attention.

Aurin asked instead of answering," Don't you love your husband?"

" Maybe. But he thinks I am not worthy of his love," She replied having a longing expression on her face.

Aurin creased her brows when Maryam realized what she was saying. Clearing her throat she made a neutral face and gave Aurin an awkward smile.

" Excuse me," Excusing herself, Maryam left for the restroom.

Aurin was diverting her gaze when she found a small packet where Maryam was sitting a few moments ago. Picking it up she examined it and realized that it was a packet of some kind of medicine. Becoming curious Aurin read the description and understood that this medicine is used to stabilise the human mood and it also helps reduce hypertension.

" Is this woman mad?" Aurin mumbled placing the packet where it was.
