35. The Birthday Party
For the first time in months, I get a chance to go out of the mansion and breathe in fresh air. Thanks to Matt. He allowed me to go to shopping with Melanie. Today in the morning when I met him, I asked him that I should buy myself some clothes and he agreed, but with a condition that Aaron will come with me. So he is here somewhere around me, hidden from Melanie.
Melanie brought me to a shopping mall where shops are not very expensive. I accepted her suggestion. She came with me because she wanted to buy a dress for the upcoming birthday party at the mansion. I came to buy daily-wear for myself.
"Let's go to that shop." Melanie points her finger to some clothing store, "They have good and affordable designs."
"Okay." I follow her to the store.
I met with Matt today in the morning. He called me to give instructions related to Ashar's birthday party, arranged at the mansion. Around three hundred people are invited to be a part of his silver-jubilee bir

Am I married? 38. The Guilt
I don't want to give him my birthday gift. He's not worth it. Now I think Samara and Ashar both suit each other. They both are same; plainly rude and not ready to think other people's problems. They think their issues are most important.Just what Ashar wants me to do now to prove him my innocence? To prove him that I don't have any hidden agenda against him or his family? I'm sick of this.Regardless of my anger, I still decide to give him the present I bought because I should thank him through it about my college assignment. It will be rude and mean and I'm not like him who doesn't acknowledge others' efforts for us.I go to his study half an hour later like he said and wait for him. He takes fifteen more minutes to come back. Environment in the room begins to tense as he enters. His eyes fall onto the gift bag I'm holding."What's that?" He walks further to me.Tentatively I move it up in front of him, "It's a birthday plus thank you gift for yo
Am I married? 39. A Call from Foster Home
A week later, I and Aaron both enter into the mansion after coming back from college when my phone starts ringing in his pocket. I stop walking and wait to get back my phone. He put it out and checked the caller ID before passing it to me, "Its Patricia." My forehead wrinkles in confusion at the mention of her name. She has only called me few times when she needs to tell me something important. I put my phone on my ear, "Hey, how-" "Sanaya, please come here." She sounds restless. "Why? Where are you?" Aaron frowns when he sees me getting worried. "I'm at the hospital." She sniffs, "It's about mother. Please come here quickly. I'm so scared." I'm on the verge of panic attack. My eyes widen in large circles, "What's with her?" "She's not okay. We brought her to hospital." "What? Where?" "Please come, Sanaya." She keeps repeating. "Okay, wait. I'll be there." I quickly cut the ca
Am I married? 40. Change of Behavior

Doctors somehow stopped the bleeding, but they have shifted her to ICU for close monitoring.I've sent Patricia home to take some rest because that girl was continuously weeping and I was scared she would pass out so I forced her to go home and come back later.Ryan also went out for some time, said he'll be back in a while. I'm only one right now at the hospital, staying near mother. I'm not willing to go back to mansion at least not tonight. I can't just sleep in peace when here mother is fighting for her life."Hey."I hear the familiar voice. I raise my head up and see Ashar is standing there.Astoundingly, I stand up on my feet and face him. I press my lips together."How's your mother?"I look away from his eyes, shaking my head slowly, "Not good.""I'm sorry." He says slowly.I look at him,
Am I married? 41. Teenage Crush
Tessa broke up with me." Ryan says.We are sitting in the hospital's cafeteria after finishing our snacks just to chatter about our lives. I'm planning to spend the night here and then go to the foster home to get some rest and Ryan has decided to accompany me. I don't mind. I want to talk to him because it has been almost a year we last saw each other."Wait, what?" I question in astonishment."Yeah, she left me. She said she needs some time to sort out her feelings." He shrugs, trying to hide his sadness."What kind of reason is that?" I wrinkle my nose in confusion, "Did you do something?"Ryan looks more mature and manlier than before. He has warm brown hair, craggy, fair skin and grey eyes. His grey eyes have light bluish flecks, looks ice blue in the sunlight. I've seen Ryan growing up. I have observed how he transformed from a skinny, teenage boy to a full-grown man. It was tempting at that time when I started looking at him as a man. Even o
Am I married? 42. Heart for Orphans
I tuck the lock of my hair behind my ear in uneasiness and steal a glimpse of him. He is already looking at me."Thank you so much, sir for the endowment. People like you think of these children is really helpful." Emma says in courteous manner."Oh, it's no problem. Maybe I'll be a benefactor here." Ashar turns his head to look at the children who are running around and playing, "The environment is nice and pleasant here."I'm impressed by the fact that he has a heart for these orphans. If every wealthy person starts thinking about the needy and helpless people, then no one would be deprived of basic necessities for living. Orphanages need lots of money for raising these children and fulfilling their basic needs like food, clothes, schooling..."Hey, I'm Lucy." Another volunteer comes forward and greets him, "I've heard about you from the administration. It's good to see you."Ashar shakes his hand with hers, "Thank you."I'm feeling awkwar
Am I married? 43. The False Hopes
I sit on the passenger seat of Ashar's car. Resting my head on the seat, I gaze at the road traffic through my side of window as he starts the car."You shouldn't have come here." I say."Why?"I look at him, "Ryan has already seen you. These people are like a family to me. It's not easy to pretend or lie to them.""Why are you scared? Is it because they have never seen you with a guy before?" He gives me a brief glance.I widen my eyes, "You're talking nonsense.""You're avoiding the question." He smirks."That's not my point, Ashar." I sit upright, "I'm too stressed out to argue with you. Just tell me why are you doing all this when in our every conversation you showed your strong resentment for me? Why are you donating money to my foster home? Why are you here and bothering yourself for my problem?"I want to know why he's doing all this. He should be in his office or doing his work, but he's here with me.
