It was Tuesday and as usual she was sitting with Dr.Samantha in the hospital room, checking patients and writing down the diseases and some important points.
While Dr.Samantha was explaining her that how infant growth is highly disturbed by unbalanced diet and intake of unhealthy food can cause which deficiencies and diseases, the nurse knocked the door."Dr.Samantha you have an unexpected special patient" she said after opening the door.
"Who?" She asked curiously.
"Mr Umer" she replied hurriedly.
"Ohh what happened to him? Send him right away" she replied while a joy filled her face at the mention of unusual name.
"Yes mam" she went away.
In a moment the door opened and the same handsome appeared before Ayeleen's eyes with whom she had a unpleasant meeting yesterday night. Her instincts told her that something is wrong with this man and she had bad feelings about him.
As he stepped in, his burning gaze fell straight at her, not sparing her for even a moment. Trying to dig inside her eyes, he didn't break the contact which her eyes created at the sudden appearance. While not in mood to face him again, she averted her eyes first. And he sat opposite to Dr.Samantha."Oh Umer! When did you come from Dubai? And what happened to you? Are you alright?" Dr. Samantha's joyful but worried voice broke his chain of thoughts and he was forced to look her.
"Yeah I just came, it's been a week. I'm just having some common symptoms you know. Your young doctor beside you attended me yesterday" he said while looking at her, making Dr.Samantha also look at her.
"Oh Ayeleen so you checked him yesterday?" She asked.
"Yeah, he came while I was in your place last night. He didn't had any serious symptoms but still I asked him to go through some tests, so you can figure out better" she admitted while looking straight Dr. Samantha, not sparing him a glance.
On the other side he was watching her like a hawk. With a smirk he watched her way of talk, noticed her nervousness and when her body tensed a bit at the mention of his tests."You did a great job, then I'll need to see his tests then" she replied while returning her attention to Umer.
"Oh I forgot to tell you Dr.Samantha! my father came along with me to meet you and he is waiting for you in his usual private room" he said, trying to make Dr.Samantha leave the room and have his private time with Ayeleen.
"Oh god! You should have told me this first Umer. I'll go then to meet him and Ayeleen I'll ask nurse to bring you his reports right away, so go through them and when I'll come, tell me whether it's major or minor" she ordered Ayeleen while picking up her phone from the table before she went away in hurry, leaving them alone.
"How are you Dr Ayeleen?" He asked while giving her smirk.
"I'm fine" she replied shortly, refusing to give him a stare.
"Why are you so conservative? Or is it just with me?" He asked in provoking manner.
"Mr Umer it's none of your business. You are my patient, and there's no reason to be frank with you" she replied, lifting her face and witnessing the colours of his face that just changed at her reply.
Her words raged him from head to toe, and losing his control he stood up from his chair instantly, leaning on the table to face her, his both hands so tightly placed on the table on her either side that his knuckles could be seen as white.
"What do you think you are?" He asked through gritted in such a temper that her breath hitched at the sudden closure of his presence.
She remained silent and her little brain couldn't process that what he was doing and why he was doing?She immediately got up from her chair, and maintained her distance.
"You are crossing your boundaries, I request you to leave this room before I need to call someone else to take you" she said, putting up her confidence and firmness in her voice sounded real.
"Just shut up! I own this fucking place! My father's pays yearly donations that their counting can not even cross your little brain, and you're talking about kicking me out?" He asked losing his temper and giving her smirks.
Their overly heated meeting was interrupted by a knock on the door. And a nurse entered holding his reports. They both stared at her, while she placed the reports on the table.
They both remained in their standing positions, and nobody move. But Ayeleen found her chance and was scared to lose it."Give these reports to me, I'll take them with myself. She took the reports from nurse's hands hurriedly, and picked her phone and notepad in other trembling hand and leave the room in such hurry that even the nurse was shocked at her action.
Leaving Umer enraged. His eyes followed her movements and his nerves were satisfied that he created a impact on her but still his ego hurted and he wanted to taught her a lesson which can define him better and she understands better.
She ran to the staff room and placed the file of papers on the table. She thanked god, that at this hour no one was in the staff room to encounter her in this state. She rushed to washroom and locked the door so no one can disturb while she cries alone.
Hurt and broken by the sudden, unexpected harassment, she started overthinking and made several possibilities to tell him his place, so he can never mess with a woman again. But all turned out to be useless because he was the owner of the hospital in which she was working and in a country like Pakistan, people might die before the justice could be serve. She couldn't even complain to anyone in the hospital or even Dr.Samantha because everyone will only blame her, due to his strong reputation and so called owner of this hospital.She discarded her all ideas and after washing her face, she got out of the washroom. Then she made herself a mug of coffee and sat on the sofa. A cup of hot coffee soothed her runny nose and teary eyes and she felt relaxed a bit. Then she picked up the reports which she bought with herself along while running from him.
She went through all the test reports and find nothing serious, it seemed like a weather allergy and homesickness.A text popped on her phone and she opened her phone thinking that it must be from Dr.Samantha.
And she was right.'Ayleen where are you? Did you went through the reports?' it read.'yes Dr.Samantha it seems nothing serious than a weather allergy and I was not feeling well so I came into staff room to take medicine' she texted back.
The day was spent reading medical books and going through the history of patients, until her friends joined her in the canteen and after eating her lunch, she went off to home at 5 in the evening.
After having dinner with her family and answering their daily questions she was off to bed when she received a text from Yahya.
She immediately texted back and her excitement was unbelievable.They talked for an hour and her stress of the day was relieved. But a sad news in the end upset her.'Ayeleen I'm really sorry but I cannot talk to my parents right now because we are facing loss in the business. To the man we invested our money has disappeared and he didn't even return our money and my parents are really depressed nowdays'- Yahya
'thats such a tragic news'- Ayeleen
'yeah but I'll try my best to convince them after we get over this hurdle'- Yahya
'yeah no problem'- Ayeleen
Then they both said their good byes to went off to sleep. But this news disrupted Ayeleen's imagination which she started to wonder. And she felt really upset, because she knew that now her parents were in hurry to marry her as per her culture, girls should marry before they turn 25.
And they even started to look for her match and on top she was the eldest daughter of her family so they wanted to pay off their duties as parents, so they can be relieved.And Yahya still couldn't talk to his family, and she could clearly see where her future was going. She will have to marry a unknown man, as per her parent's choice and have to live happily in a arrange marriage. Tears formed in her eyes, soaking her lashes and she closed her eyes to escape from reality.She prayed in her breath, that may future holds something good and exciting for her so her life will not just be to raise kids but a good-looking and romantic husband too who will love her endlessly, which she always assumed to be Yahya....
One week passed in peace and she didn't get to see Umer. He never came to hospital after that. And she was glad that the load was unloaded without anyone's help. She spend her days in full happiness, and started to enjoy her life again. Although she was worried that her parents are now really looking for her match and she'll have to marry someone sooner or later.Her day was off in 6 in the evening, due to some extra work, Dr.Samantha gave her and extra time she spent with her friends. But she was glad after all, it was some quality time she had with them after so long and their memories of childhood rewinded.She was holding her car keys in her one hand and her bag on her shoulder. She entered the parking lot and reached her car. As she opened the car door and sat in, from nowhere her opposite door seat door was also opened by someone and in matter of seconds he got in and sat beside her. To her shock she wanted to scream, and get out of the car but he leaned in and shu
The moment she lifted her face and looked at him, she felt so dead.He was looking like a perfect gentleman wearing white shirt, a black blazer and his hair, fully combed to side, leaving some strands on his face making him look so hot and innocent at same time. For a moment, his handsome face and looks impressed her but she recovered from the trance quickly and realized how a devil he is.She was wearing a maroon dress, along a with a net dupatta on her head, her straight hair with wavy loose curls at end, falling on her shoulders, bangs shaping the face and rest covering her back.He was constantly looking at her, she tried to remain calm and neutralized her expressions so he couldn't see what she was really feeling inside. Despite ignoring him, she could feel his burning gaze digging holes in her and how his eyes were scanning her body and how his eyes were trying to make a contact with her. While she only sighed at his behavior and was so frustra
"mama I want to say something" she hesitated."Yes say it" her mother replied while stacking the clothes in cupboard."Why didn't you ask me before calling them? You didn't even bother to tell me that you're marrying me?" She asked with a broken and weak tone." So what? After all you have to marry someone, you didn't tell us if you had someone in mind. And your brother and other siblings are in line too, we have to look for them after you'll go. And we can't let you stay your whole life here. We need to think about other kids too" she replied in a unpleasant tone."That's what you all want? To just throw me? I don't depend on you guys, I do a job and afford my own expenses, I'm your daughter and you can't just let me live?" She asked almost getting emotional."Look Ayeleen, you have to marry someday, we wanted you to be a doctor so you can have a better match. And now he's already here, he loves you and wants to marry you willingly. Now please jus
"why are you so hot?" asked Amar as she pulled herself from the hug. Then he touched her forehead to check. "You're having high temperature Ayeleen! And your lip is hurt so badly, it's swollen!" He panicked. "Keep it low! Or they will wake up. It's just a little temperature, I'll take medicine and it will go away. And I'll apply antibiotic on lip, don't worry" she calmed him. They both ate pizza, and then she went to sleep. As Ayan turned off the lights and went back to his room. In morning, despite feeling unwell and having high fever, she got ready for hospital and after eating breakfast alone, in silence. She went off.Although she was not in state of driving, and looked pale but nobody noticed and didn't even talked to her. She reached the hospital at 8 am.She took a deep breath and inhaled the fresh air of morning to relax a bit. Then she went to staff room and took her medicines, as she wanted to stay stable duri
The door opened by his sinewy arm, and he entered carrying a paper bag with 3 bottles of juice.While she got alarmed by his sudden appearance, and settled her dupatta again, as she was already sitting on the couch.She was feeling fine now but she was dehydrated due to extreme perspiration.She lifted her face and looked his way, who already had fixed his eyes on her.He came towards her and sat beside her, close. It made her uncomfortable and she moved a little further on the edge of couch.Watching her getting conscious of closeness with him, he moved towards her more. "What are you doing Umer? Please keep your distance with me!" She said getting extreme angry. "And do you think I'll listen to you? So shut your mouth! You are fucking wearing a ring of my name in your hand! You are engaged to me! And I can get close as much as I want" he spat out leaning towards her more. Due to the extreme proximity between thei
The door was opened by Amar. And he greeted her with a warm smile. "How are you feeling?" He asked her as she stepped forward. "I'm fine" she replied and went inside.Following her, he noticed the bouquet in her hand but kept quite. In case he will make her uncomfortable at the sudden question, as she is already not feeling well. Her face was pale and he couldn't help noticing that only few depressing days affected her this much. He never saw Ayeleen in this state. She always had been a cheerful and lively girl, who liked to laugh alot. This was not his sister whom he always knew.Ayeleen silently went inside her room, as her mother who was in kitchen preparing dinner for her ignored her presence. And thankfully she didn't had to face her father, who was already in lounge watching news. Her sisters were not in room and it was also a good thing for her.Aysel was the second sister after Ayeleen. She was busy in kitchen with her mother, helpi
She felt her heart beating very fast and she was having difficulty in breathing. She was hyperventilating. She couldn't process her condition and the people around her, continuously calling her name, checking her forehead made her more uncomfortable.She realized that she was having a panic attack, and immediately she tried to sat up and started taking long breaths. It was the first time that her anxiety became worse and she had severe anxiety attack. She always dealt with anxiety, from her teenage but never took it serious. She always had some minor attacks which never even affected her.As she got normal, she heard voices around her more clearly. Her mother was now worried and her brother was offering her a glass of water. Without giving any attention to them she got up and ran to the bathroom. She splashed water on her face several times. She looked at herself in bathroom mirror. Her eyes were swollen and once again everything rewinded in her mind.That regre
She resisted and tried to push him away. But his hold was strong than her all strength. He couldn't get satisfied, she was like a sweet delight to him. Something didn't let him get enough.He was losing his control over her. He wanted to devour her all at once. Her constant resistance was making him attract to her more.His tongue roamed and touched each corner, sucked her lips until they were red and swollen.She didn't wanted to lose and kept trying to get away, but his dominant hold didn't budge.'sometimes you should accept defeat and let others conquer you, because when their heart turns to stone, you can't just make them realize by attaining. Just let them have it all, and one day they will regret'Someone's words rang in her ear, and she almost lost her hope. Tears surrounded her eyes and she closed them. She already accepted everything, why not this? But it was her body, she owns it. How can she let someone invade it without her permission?But she was already handing over
