Finally it's over

It didn't take time for them to rescue Rose. When Rose pushed Ash, Ash felt betrayed. He felt like Rose was leaving him to feel enormous pain for the rest of his life. He was determined not to feel that pain. So he thought if you want to die you have to die with me, not another way. He then pushed the water and reached Rose. He struggled but finally pulled Rose to the surface. The police forces already started to rescue John.

Ash did not care about it. His only focus was on Rose. He called out. "ROSE!"

After calling several times and giving CPR, Rose opened her eyes. She looked at Ash and gave said, "Ash"

"Yes, you moron. How dare you do that?"

Ash said and hugged Rose. Rose was dazed but hugged him nevertheless.

Rose heard people calling out and shouting. But she couldn't understand it. The heavy dress and all the running made her lose control. And finally, she went to sleep.

Ash shouted and kept calling her. A medical team came and separated Ash from Rose. He howled but no one paid attention. Roy also came and tried to hold him down.

Finally, one doctor told him, "It's okay. She is fine, just lost consciousness. We need to admit her to the hospital to see if any problem arises or not."

Ash calmed down. They took her to the hospital. After a few hours, Rose regained her senses. The first thing she saw was Bella.

Bella said, "Sister, you are awake. I was so worried."

Rose asked, "Mother?"

"She is fine. You saved her. Mother was getting checked up."

Rose looked around. She was in the hospital. It felt like she was staying more in hospital than in her home.

Home. Which one is her home? She did not know.

Bella came near her and took her hand.

Rose looked at the girl. She was just above eighteen but she suffered not less than Rose did. Rose said, "I am sorry. I couldn't able to protect you"

"No, sister. You suffered more than any of us. We cannot comprehend what you have suffered for the past two years. I never blame you. I was indeed angry. But never blame you."

Rose smiled and said, "When did you get so big. I didn't notice."

"Come on sis, I am pregnant. And soon I will be a mother. Of course, I have to be big."

Rose nodded. And said, "Bella, I have to leave. I won't be able to see you and your child."

"No, sis. Why?" Bella asked.

"I felt guilty. It hurts. With this guilt, I won't be able to face any of you."

"Sis, is it because of Levi?" Bella asked.

"Levi was the biggest reason but there are many others," Rose said.

"You will come back, won’t you?" Bella pleaded.

"I don't know. Maybe one day I will come back."

"Does he know?"

"I told him. But this time I will say it clearly."

Bella nodded and said, "Remember this is your home. You can come anytime you want to. I will receive you with open arms."

Bella spread her arms and Rose pushed herself into her sister's warmth.

"I will miss you," Rose said in a muffled voice.

"Then don't go."

Rose laughed. There was a knock and a voice floated in.

"May I come in?" He said

Bella laughed and said, "I wouldn't dare to disturb the newlywed husband and wife."

Rose blushed hard. She forgot that they are now married. What was she thinking?

Bella stood up and said, "I will be waiting."

Ash came and said, "So you are determined to leave me"

Rose's heart thumping inside her chest. How did he know?

"Yes, I have to go," Rose, said.

Ash leaned in and said, "Rose khan, did you forget that we got married today."

Rose blushed hard and nodded her head slowly.

"But still you want to leave your only husband?" Ash asked.

"Ash, please. Try to understand. We will make each other unhappy. Please let me go this once."

Ash sighed.

Rose said, "I have to go. After imprinting the pain on you, I won't be able to live with you. The guilt in me won't let us have a happy ending."

"But if you go you will kill me all over again, "Ash said. Rose has the urge to hug him. But suppress it.

"I am sorry, Ash. I know I am being selfish. But please," Rose pleaded.

He held Rose's hand and said, "You will come back, right?"

"Yes, Ash. But I am not sure when."

"Rose" Ash called her. This voice held many things. Love, hatred, insecurity, fear, anger, plead but above all hope. Hope for a better tomorrow.

Rose looked at him and said, "I will come back. I promise. But if you- what I mean to say is if you find someone that you love and move forward then just email me. I will free you."

Ash looked at this insane girl. She thought he could love anyone. Ash said, "Good. You are so generous. But I am not. No matter where you go, remember, you are my wife. So you are not allowed to fall in love."

Rose smiled and kissed Ash's nose. Rose said, "One day I will tell you those three words without any restrictions. Without any guilt. So wait for me, for that day."

"I will," Ash said and hugged her.

Rose remembered something and broke the hug. She asked, "What about John?"

"He was in prison. They rescued him and admitted him to the prisoner's hospital. He was fine. The trial will start tomorrow. Also, Mrs. Khan was arrested for plotting my mother's death."

"Did you find the clue?" Rose asked.

"Yes, dad knew that she was the one who killed the mother. So he married her. He was trying to get the evidence. And finally, she confessed. I think after Alina's death, Mrs. Khan became unstable. And our company was safe."

Rose sighed. Finally, all the missing pieces fall into their place. Now only they have to wait.

Ash said, "Forget about them. We have a more pressing situation."

Rose frowned. What could be? When Ash said, "It is our wedding night."

Rose blushed and looked down. She did not know where to look. Ash held her chin and made her look up. He said, "I know we both are not ready to accept this. So take your time. But promise me, you will never cheat." Then he winked.

Rose smiled and hugged him. "I will never forget my storm."

"Storm?"

"Yes, you are my storm. Who came and changed everything. I will never forget nor cheat you, my dear husband."

Ash pinched her nose and said, "yes."

They hugged each other and fell into a deep slumber.

The next day they all went home. Mr. Karim and Mrs. Karim returned to their home. Rose is also prepared to leave this country. She will go to Paris. She wanted to pursue her dream of becoming a songwriter. Ash wanted to help her but Rose denied it.

After a week they got the news of John. He was given life imprisonment. And all his properties were seized by the government. As for Mrs. Khan, she was admitted to a mental asylum. She was unstable after losing her only daughter. Almost everything returned to its place.

The day before Rose left, she went to the cemetery. She could not come due to her guilt. But she thought to face it and give her goodbye.

She went there and sat in front of Levi's grave.

She started to cry and said, "I am sorry. I am sorry. I do not know how to express my sorry. For me, you lost your life. No matter how many times I say it, it won't change anything. But still, I want to say sorry."

"Yes, it won't change anything." Someone said, Rose looked at the person and was shocked.
