Chapter 90

Chapter 90
But this pregnancy felt different from her first pregnancy. Her belly bump started to show earlier. Moments were very strong. However, her diet was not nearly healthy. She was barely surviving.

She once dared to ask Sameer about Zain but received only a brutal beating. After that, she never took his name in front of Sameer. Sameer denied all her requests for a doctor's checkup.

She had just onlyestiestimateher due month not, even the date. She did not know how the baby's health was inside, about his gender, or anything else. Once he or she was born, what would be his future? What would she tell him or her about the paternity?

She was in her 7th month, when she started to feel labour pains.

"NO, NO.... This is not the right time." She worried said to herself. But the labour pain was increasing. Only her screams made Sameee bring a lady doctor here. He did take pity on her. He did not take her to the hospital.

"It's too late to go to the hospital. She will deliver the baby, right now." The doctor said on seeing her condition.

After a few pushes, she delivered a fragile and blue-eyed baby girl, her Farheen.

But soon after that, labour pain started again. Then a realisation hit them all. She was pregnant with twins.

She delivered another baby girl.

But she did not make any crying sound. The doctor looked at Sameer. They both exited from there with that lifeless angel.

"SAMEER! SAMEER, COME BACK. WHERE ARE YOU TAKING MY  DAUGHTER? GIVE HER BACK TO ME! SAMEEEEEER!" She cried and screamed aloud. But his deaf ears, ignored her.

Her body did not have the strength to go after him. She just cried and cried.

Sameer returned after a few hours. 

"I am sorry, my jaan. Your stubbornness took the life of our daughter." He showed fake sympathy to her and ran his fingers through Ayzel's hair. She loathed his touch.

He was right about her stubbornness. He asked her to be with him and forget about Zain. But she refused his every offer only for Zain. Even at the cost of her life, she will always choose Zain.

"I am grateful to Allah for this. At least one of us, is saved from your brutality." She snarled.

He just laughed in reply.

"A Son for  Zain, and two bitches for me." He gripped her hair tightly. She hissed in pain. "It's unfair, Ms Ayzel."

Now he came with a gender bias.

He was such a psychopath.

But Lord knows, what came to his heart. He provided necessities for Farheen.

Farheen was not born a healthy child. She was premature. Her weight was not a healthy one. She again asked for help from Sameer. But his stone-cold heart did not care.

One day Farheen was crying so hard. For hours, it continued. It angered Sameer. And what happened after that no one imagined.

"WHY IS SHE NOT GETTING SHUT UP!" Sameer barged in with Anger. 

"Please take her to the doctor." Ayzel pleaded.

"I WILL END HER STORY, RIGHT NOW. WE ALL WILL BE IN PEACE." Sameer loaded the gun and aimed it at Farheen. The madman was about to take the life of an innocent 2-week-old child.

Ayzel's instincts worked. She jumped in front of Sameer and tried to snatch the gun from him. In that scramble, the gun fired. A loud bang was heard. Whose body received the bullet?

A body falls with a thud.

It was Sameer's body.

Ayzel shot him.

She became a murderer.

Sameer was dead. But it was Ayzel whose face became void of any colour. She also fell near his body. With shaking hands, she touched the blood coming out of gun wound on his body. But when she felt and saw the blood on her hands, with a shriek. 

Her one sin led her to a series of sins. She was doing sin on sin. She felt herself trapped in a web of sins.

People live once and also die once.

But in this one-time life, Ayzel died many times. A part of her soul was torn apart once again. But she could not undo that sin.

Did she have to mourn over the loss of Sameer's life or her sin?

But she did not have time for that. The children's cry asked for her attention.

She grabbed the children and escaped from that hell. She ran and ran. Bare-footed. Though Sameer was dead, out of fear she was looking back again and again. Like the ghost of Sameer was going to haunt her.

Her marathon came to an end when she came in front of Saliha's car. That day she got freedom from Satan and found a guardian angel.

After that day, she just survived for redemption. She waited for Zain. She was aware that Zain would not offer her a bed of roses either. But his bed of thrones would be better than the hell where Sameer had kept her.

And finally, that day came too. And all were aware of that part.

FLASH BACK ENDS.

Ayzel said it all. Now she was silent. Even the sounds of their breath were silent. Only the unheard ominous sounds were lurking in the room. Zain's eyes and nose were red and puffy respectively due to unshed tears.

"Kill me." Ayzel's words stunt Zain.

"Kill me. Now you have all the reasons in the world to kill me. I am touched by your worst enemy kill me!" Ayzel stood up, making Zain get up from his seat as well.

She physically attacked Zain in search of a gun.

"WHERE IS YOUR GUN? TAKE MY LIFE!" She again shouted at his face. Out of fear Zain was taking steps back. For the very first time in his life, he got scared that much. His steps felt heavy.

He stopped only by the wall.

"Just kill me. You wanted to give Sameer the pain of living without a child. Alas! He is not here to face that pain." She laughed like a maniac. She was no less than a woman possessed by a demon.

"I am the one who has been burning in that pain for five years. But now I won't burn again in that pain again." Now her face was red in anger. Her emotions were changing drastically.

"You don't have to taint your hands with Farheen's blood. She will die on her own." She told him this with an assured tone. She believed that Zain would kill Farheen too after knowing her paternity.

"PLEASE, I AM BEGGING YOU TO TAKE MY LIFE!" She was hitting Zain. He meekly tried to push away her hands. He was feeling miserable and vulnerable in front of her. 

Zikria and Aliya's interference separated Ayzel from Zain. But she was screaming non-stop. She was resisting and fighting in their hold.

"Where is your hatred gone, now? I am your impure wife. Where is your honour?" She tried to provoke him intentionally.

"Zain leave the room!" Zikria commanded him. But Zain's steps were frozen. Burhan dragged him out of the room.

Ayzel's screams were echoing throughout the whole mansion making a sharp razor cut in the throats of all family members. The night all hidden skeletons were revealed.

Were the funerals about to depart from Skinder's mansion again?
