Chapter 45: Chapter 45
'' what do you want?" He asked while throwing his cigarette and focusing on Rimsha.
" MAAZ.. I want Maaz and his separation from his wife. " Rimsha said and Saad looked at her with wide eyes. Then he nodded.
"Okayy... I'm with you in whatever you want. I will help you to be happy...." Saad said while holding her hand
"Really??" she asked with confusion and he nodded.
"Saad How can Maaz even think about his life without me?" Rimsha asked to him with full pain.
"You want Maaz?" Saad again asked and Rimsha nodded with a smile
"Tell me one thing, if he didn't moved on with his wife, then would you be happy?" Saad asked and she nodded her head happily
"But why would you be happy Rimsha? What would be your status in Maaz's life?" Saad asked after holding her hand in both of his hands. And Rimsha was looking at him with confusion
"Saad What do you mean by my status? I would be his... His love" Rimsha said after thinking for a while as she herself was confused about the answer
"His Love!!" Saad murmured and shook his head
"What is your name?" He asked and Rimsha looked at, him with confusion, she shrugged her shoulder in questioning way, but Saad raised his eyebrows as he was waiting for answer
"Rimsha.., you know it''
" Full name?" He asked shortly
"Rimsha Ateeq Baig" She said with frustration as she wasn't knowing what Saad trying to say
"And what is the name of Maaz's wife?" Saad asked and She was perturbed by his question
" I tell you, her name is Rabiya Maaz." Saad said and Rimsha suddenly felt a shock
"Only her name is enough to show her status in her husband's life, But Rimsha you don't have any bond with Maaz which..." Saad words was cutting in between by Rimsha's sentence
"Saad you have said that you will be with me in everything which can makes me happy, then why you are saying all these things?" She asked angrily but Saad was showing his polite side
"I'm with you, but creating trouble in Maaz's life will not going to make you happy, even you will ruin your life. Rimsha try to accept the reality" He tried his best to made her understand but she was stucked on her place.
'How it is possible'
'Maaz promised me, he is only mine'
'He said he didn't love his wife, then why he is leaving me for her?'
'Is Saad right, am I ruining my life? But my life is already ruined, I don't have anything in my life after maaz'
These all where the thought that Rimsha's brain was repeating, she was totally broken, but wanted to drew out her frustration on Rabiya and her happy life.
'Why she never thinks about me, even Maaz left her in between, after everything she still loves him!'
'Isn't my love pure?' he questioned himself but didn't got the reply as his heart only repeating hers name on every beat. Drawing out cigarette he lit up and started smoking one after other he converted three of them into Ash..
"Is this that much easy to move on?" After the silence of almost half an hour Rimsha asked to Saad
"Not at all! Moving on is not easy at all, but...."He said with a sigh and lift the cigarette to his lips, inhaling the smoke he took a pause.
"Sometimes bitterness of life increases this enough, that man started enjoying slow poisoning" He said with pain in his voice then continued his smoking.
"Are you crazy? Why are you smoking that much?" snatching the cigarette which he was holding in middle of his fingers Rimsha asked angrily.
"Why are you asking? You don't have any right to question me." Saad said in hushed tone after taking the cigarette back which she was holding, and Rimsha nodded.
"Yeah you are right, I shouldn't say anything to you, I don't have any right over you." Rimsha said and get up from her place. She was about to take a step further but her forearm was caught by his hand. She turned to face him
"But I want to give you all the rights over myself. I promise I'll never let you regret for your decision." He said looking into her eyes.
"Saad I'm getting late" saying that she freed herself and scoot from there.
"What a fantastic destiny I have got!!" Saad mumbled and throw the cigarette from her hand.
"Maaz please receive it..." She muttered while holding the mobile near her ear but he didn't
Driving back to her home she stopped on a coffee shop where he use to visit with Maaz.
AFTER A WEEK
RABIYA'S POV :
I was getting ready for going college when I heard a knock on the door, I opened the door and Raahim bhai was standing there
"Bhabi if you are not reading that book can you please give me back.." He asked meekly and I nodded.
"Yeah, I read that, bhai can I give you that after sometime..?" I asked and he nodded. He was going back and I was going to shut the door when Maaz stepped out from the bathroom
I went to the dressing room and he closed the door.
"Why did he came here?" He asked with furrowed brows
"whhhaatt....!!! Maaazz he is your brother, can't he come here..." I asked in scolding way.
"He can, but why he came at this time??" He asked seriously, why he was so serious I didn't get that
"He was asking about the book which I had borrowed from him." I informed him and he nodded he was looking relaxed after listening that, but I didn't get the reason behind that.
Combing my hair in front of mirror I was going to tye them in a bun when I was started by a hold around my belly.
"Hmm..." After a dramatic sigh Maaz held me with both hands around my belt line placing his chin on my shoulder, he was looking at me through the mirror, as I was doing so. He was giving me a come-hither look. His gaze with a smirk was making my heart flutter, and cheeks burn.
"Miss Rabiya will you stop blushing like this?" He asked after sliding his lips from my ear to chin then plant a kiss on my jaw bone, I shook my head in answer with a smile. I was unprecedented of that feeling and now
'I love this man, I can't imagine my life without him' saying that to myself I looked at him who was still smiling.
'My Mr. Romantic Khadoos' My heart said happily and I freed myself from his grip.
"Now I'm not miss Rabiya, but Mrs. Rabiya Maaz" I said proudly tying my hair in ponytail and he nodded his head with a smile.
"Where are you going?" He asked when I took steps towards door
"I'm going to Return this book to Raahim bhai" Showing the book I said
"give it to me, I'll return him, you get ready" He said I passed him the same.
===========
"Hey Rabiya.... What are you doing?" I was sitting in the class room Which was totally empty when I listen that, she was Aaliya with Jatin
"I'm studing" I said and again bowed my head down.
"Come with us, study later" Jatin said to me with a smile.
'Later...!! But when, my husband didn't let me study!!' I said to
myself after rolling my eyes.
"okay" I said and went with them because I couldn't tell them about my schedule.
When I went to the canteen, most of our friends were sitting with down, sad face.
"What happened, why you all are sad?" I asked
"Prof. Singh will take us to history museum after college" someone informed us
"Whattt..."
"Ohh no"
"What the hell is this?"
These all were the reactions of Aaliya, Jatin and mine.
After a long Booring lecture and tour I was feeling tired, glancing at the time I found 4:43 pm. Driver was waiting for me outside the museum
"How far Maaz's office is from here?" I asked to driver.
"Not much far, around ten minutes drive away from here" He informed me and I nodded
"Take me to his office" I said to him while sitting inside the car.
'he will be surprise to see me there' I said to myself smilingly
Maaz,

I text him
Really??

He asked in reply
Its a surprise, how can
I reveal that?
I text happily
Hope, this time your
surprise wouldn't be

He text me and I giggled

But waiting for my
surprise
A smile made its way to my lips on his reply
==========
MAAZ'S POV:
Bye...
But waiting for my
surprise
I text Rabiya and put my mobile phone in the pocket
After packing my laptop, the first thing which I did was, peeking out of the window of my office. And again....
''Ya Allah, What should I do now??"
Rimsha was there. There are almost six days and Rimsha come to meet me after office, I don't know how to ignore her, I'm trying to move up but she is not ready to understand the reality.
I hadn't any other way besides leaving office, glancing at my wrist watch I found 4:50 pm.
I took step out from my cabin, except a few people everyone was left. I was waiting for everyone to leave so that no one would witness Rimsha with me .
"Maaz Don't you want to go home?" Neha asked when she was going out from there.
"I... I'm just leaving, you go." I said and she left from there after giving me a nod. After a while our whole department was deserted. I marched toward the parking lot.
"Maaz.... Maaz listen to me" Rimsha said and I felt my feet were captured by the floor
Letting out a long breath I looked at her, she was standing there with tear fill eyes..
"Maaz how can you forget me?" she asked again she was repeating her words Since last five days and I was just listing, in the starting she was asking all these things after grabbing my collar with full of rage but now she seems broken.
''Maaz do you ever loved me?" she asked with disappointment in her eyes.
"Rimsha... Try to forget the past... We both loved each other madly, but now situation is different." I said to her but I was avoiding eye contact, I hadn't that much courage to tolerate her pain.
"Maaz is that easy for you to forgot me?" she asked me and some tears dropped from her eyes making my heart clenched I suddenly averted my gaze after fisting my hands, I was screaming inside myself but I had to be strong so I didn't said a single word
"Maaz I'm asking something!!" She said while shaking me, holding me with my arms.
"Is that easy for you to forgot me?" she repeated herself and I took a deep breath.
'I can't forget you and your love but...' I said in my heart and looked at her.
"Rimsha Many difficult things have to be done in life, that's why life is not easy." I said to her but I was trying to avoid glancing at her face. She was shedding tears whi h was making my heart jump abnormally
"Maaz I can't live without you..." saying that she hugged me tightly, her arms were wrapped around me and she crying badly.
'I could tolerate everything but her tears were making me weak' I put my hand on back of her head.
"Rimsha... Please"
"Maaz, we were happy with each other but..." She said while sobbing and I closed my eyes with a painful sigh
"Achha.. Bas ab rona band karo" I said to her after breaking the hug and wiping her tears.
(Now stop crying)
"Come with me" I said and open the door of my car for her she sat inside silently and I started driving. Stopping the car near a vendor I took water for her and she gulped a lot in a single breath
"Rimsha go."
"Where?" she asked me and I gestured towards her home. She didn't notice when we came to her home.
"Go" I said again, and she went down of the car with tears filled eyes.
"Rimsha we were friends in the beginning can't we end up all these things like good friends?" I asked but she didn't said anything and took steps towards her home, I drove from there.
After spending almost an hour in driving I reached home.
Throwing myself on sofa resting my head to head support I closed my eyes.
"Banoo water.." I yelled as usual, even after the wait for few minutes i didn't get the same
"Banoo.... Water" I again yelled, this time I listen sound of footsteps coming towards me.
Lifting my hand in the air to held the glass, I opened my eyes and I felt a shock.. I was expecting a beautiful figure holding the glass of water with a smile on her face, but she was Bano our maid
"Water...." Again call-out loudly after picking the glass of water from the tray.
"Why anyone is not giving h.."Ammi came out of her room in anger, scolding the servants
"Maaz you already have water then why are you shouting? Ammi asked
"Where is SHE? "I asked and she gestured towards upstairs after a smile.
"Rabiya had an extra class, maybe she is sleeping due to tiredness" She inform to me and I nodded my head
Climbing the stairs I went to the bedroom. Where she was sleeping peacefully covering herself with blanket.
'Now she is my wife and life' I said to myself while laying down besides her after changing myself into night suit.
"My Biya..." looking at her face I was thinking about everything which was going in my life.
