The summers with each passing year was turning more terrible. The heat was killing me. I just wanted to go to my home, to my comfort zone. For saving money and managing my budget I never overused my resources. I gladly used a second hand car without AC.

Lately expenses had been increased due to my wedding. It had been three weeks of my marriage with Mehrbano.

And in these three weeks, I have gone through different kind of emotions. It isn't easy to live with someone I believe but I never thought it would be so difficult.

I tested my patience in so many ways and I have realized in some matters I have failed miserably.

I couldn't make myself talk to her if it's not necessary, engaging in conversations with her was very difficult. No, my relationship with her wasn't normal. It was different and very difficult for me.

I was regretting getting married.

Marriage isn't as easy as it seems.

I knocked at my apartment door. It's strange to knock when I always used to unlock it in the past. Without wasting much time she opened the door and welcomed me with a small smile on her face.

It was strange, a beautiful woman standing at the door, just for me. It's certainly is. When did I ever imagine this?

I glanced at her but couldn't smile back at her because I didn't want to. I wanted to remain at a certain distance with her. I followed my decision I made on my wedding day, there won't be any emotional attachment between us at any cost.

That's it.

Deep down I knew it was wrong but I couldn't help it. I wasn't ready to get played with once again. I was done being played once.

I didn't trust Mehrbano. How could I? She was my wife but I couldn't trust her with myself. I didn't know her nor did I have any desire in me to know her.

"Aslamo alaikum" She greeted me softly.

I just nodded at her. I usually use less words as possible.

I went inside and sat on the sofa under the fan. The scorching weather made me exhausted. It was a small studio apartment. Once it was enough for me but with another being with me I needed to arrange another apartment for our usage.

Another museebat in never ending list.

I was about to wipe out sweat from my forehead when she came near me. I looked up at her. She was standing so close to me. I could smell her soft fragrance. She never came closer to me by herself, it was always me who initiated things between us.

She pressed the end of her dupatta on my forehead softly and wiped it completely.

Her fragrance engulfed my senses.

"Bohat thak gae hain?" She asked politely. Her voice was nothing but sweet and it touched the walls of my heart.

(Are you very tired?)

"Han" I replied, closing my eyes. I wanted to push her hands away but I didn't. I was getting comfort from her. I let her do what she wanted.

(Yes)

"Garmi bohat thi na aj" She commented, running his fingers through my hair.

(It was very hot today)

"Yes" I mumbled with closed eyes.

A few seconds later, I opened my eyes and found her staring at me. I rose up and unbuttoned my shirt, removed my shoes and walked straight to the bathroom where she had already hanged my clothes.

I took shower and we had our dinner together in silence.

In the small vicinity I couldn't runaway from her. I kept standing at the balcony as suddenly wind was blowing and sky was turning dark. Thunderstorm was on it's way.

I sighed. Though I despised rain but in the summers it's sometimes blessing. Such as now when I was exhausted with the heat.

She was done with the dishes when it started raining. I moved back to not get wet and she passed by me only to get soaked in the rain.

"What are you doing?" I asked, looking at her.

"Enjoying the rain" She turned towards me and smiled.

She looked beautiful. Her hair wet, lips formed into a small smile.

It was raining the first time after our marriage and I just realized thar she loved rain as much as I hated it.

"Come inside and closed the door. The floor will be wet" I asked her.

"I will clean it. Don't you worry" She replied, beaming in happiness.

"Get inside" I held her arm, pulled her inside carefully and closed the door.

"What happened?" She was confused.

I didn't let her enjoy the rain but who is going to tell her rain just makes you sick. It's not something you should enjoy.

"Change your clothes" I instructed her.

"Why. It's fine in this heat" She refused.

"Mehrbano! Go and change" I asked her again.

"Itna khoobsurat mosam hy. Apko nahi pasand?" She asked me a different question this time.

(It's such a pleasant weather. Don't you like it?)

I looked at her and couldn't avert my eyes away from her face. Her eyes were shining and face glowing. She was there for me. I couldn't believe it.

I stared at her silently.

"Nahi pasand" She commented sadly as if it disappointed her. It certainly did.

(You don't like it)

My eyes wandered at her moving lips. They were pink and wet. She looked beautiful and I just couldn't resist it anymore.

In these three weeks of our marriage, I never tasted her mouth. I would sleep with her but hadn't kissed her yet. Emotionally I was very far from her.

But I couldn't resist her now.

I leaned down at her face. She didn't moved behind nor closed her eyes. She saw me with confusion in her eyes.

I captured her lips in mine and closed my eyes. I kissed her slowly. I cupped her face in my both hands. It was the first time, I tasted her mouth and there was no way turning back.

I lost myself in her.

I completely drowned myself deep in the ocean of this complicated relationship.

I have read all of your comments on the previous chapter💖

Their marriage was always toxic. From day one he was a red flag and she ignored it. She had her reasons as we already know about.

We will reach the present soon.

I have received immense love and support on this book. If you like my writing style then do check out my other book UNCHERISHED LOVE on my profile. Just like this book the story is also different and unique. Many chapters of that book are published. I will continue that book once I complete DOCTORS LOVE.

Would love to see your feedback there💗✨
