Chapter-30

Author's pov

Laying on the bed Maryam's mother Momena was looking at the wall with blank eyes. She was recalling Maryam's words and her crying face. The more she was thinking about Maryam the more she was having mixed feelings about Maryam.

" What did you say to her that she reacted like a brat in front of Yardan?" Maryam's father Abdullah asked entering the hospital room.

Maryam's mother replied sighing," I wish you never brought her into my life. I wish you never................."

" If I never brought her into your life then you wouldn't be getting treatment now. Your useless sons wouldn't be having fun with the money Yardan was laundering on them," Abdullah shouted at Momena and she flinched a little bit.

Then, Abdullah said sitting beside her," If your daughter comes to meet you again then behave with her a little bit gently. She needs emotional support now. If somehow she takes any self-harming action then it will be a loss for us. We will lose the only source of our income."

" She isn't my daughter. She is only your daughter. Result of the sin you committed with my character-less sister!! Momena screamed at the top of her lungs and her face turned in another direction instantly.

Abdullah scolded clutching her jaw," Shut the fuck up and forget the past."

Momena didn't say anything. Jerking his hands away she laid down and looked at the wall blankly again. How can she forget the past? The shameful past.

Maryam isn't Momena's real daughter. She is Momena's younger sister Mymuna's daughter. Abdullah was having affair with Mymuna and Maryam was the result of that affair. When Momena got to know about all these she tried to leave Abdullah but her parents didn't let her leave him because of the kids. Momena was very young when she was married off and since Momena wasn't that educated & naive she accepted whatever her parents suggested.

Her parents were actually trying to secure Mymuna's future. When they got to know that Mymuna was already pregnant with Abdullah's child it was already late. Mymuna was only 15 at that time and it was Abdullah who seduced her. He took advantage of her innocence.

When Mymuna gave birth to Maryam, her parents gave baby Maryam to Momena and married off Mymuna somewhere else. They did all these so that their daughters wouldn't face difficulty in society. They knew that no matter what the fingers will be raised at their daughters. That's how the filthy society works in some places.

Since Momena knew everything so she always had mixed feelings about Maryam. Neither she could reject her nor she could accept her. Her other children know that Maryam is their stepsister and that's why they always looked down upon her except for Mehzabin. She was the only person who treated Maryam with love and affection. It was a condition from Abdullah that nobody will tell Maryam about her real mother. That's why Maryam doesn't know who is her real mother and the story behind her birth.

Abdullah and Momena were arguing unknown to the fact that someone was hearing them. And, that person was none other than Yardan. He was stunned to hear that Maryam's real mother isn't Momena.

When he returned to the hotel where he was staying with Maryam he found her sitting beside the window and looking outside aimlessly. He also noticed that she was babbling something inaudible. Getting close to her he tried to her and her words triggered a strong nerve inside him.

" Api, he was right. I should have died instead of you," Maryam mumbled sighing.

Sensing his presence in the room she asked him," When are we going to return to Dubai? I don't feel like meeting Ammi again."

" Tomorrow," He answered shortly.

Letting out a deep breath Maryam told him again," You were right. I should have died in that accident."

***************************************

Maryam was riding on Yardan closing her eyes. There wasn't a single piece of clothing on her body. She was holding his fat belly to balance herself. She wasn't closing her eyes due to pleasure, she was closing them because she doesn't want to see him howling with pleasure.

Her body trembled and she clenched her jaw tightly feeling his hands all over her boobs. He was playing with her boobs to give her pleasure but he doesn't know pleasure is now a foreign word to her. He doesn't know that she was becoming emotionless day by day.

" Moan.......Ahh........Moan my.....name," He ordered her but she didn't even let out a breath.

When Yardan was done cumming inside her for the fourth time she got down and returned to her side to sleep. Pulling a comforter over her she closed her eyes to sleep. She knew that he will leave her now because his needs are fulfilled now. She knew that he isn't going to pull him on his chest or say some sweet words. It's been more than 5 years since their marriage but they never had any normal conversation except for arguments. She has slept with him uncountable times but the love she expected from him, she never got it. At first, she was hoping things to get better but with passing time she was losing her hope.

On the other hand, Yardan noticed the silence in her. When he turned toward her he found her back facing him. That's when he noticed some red rashes all over her back. Some of those rashes were on her upper arm too. Instantly his brows curled in confusion and unknowingly a concerned expression appeared on his face.

" What happened to you? Are these allergies?" He questioned touching her back gently.

Maryam shivered to feel his hand on her back. As she was upset she didn't bother to reply. He asked the same question and this time his voice was loud and rude.

" Allergies," She replied timidly and closed her eyes again.

Turning her towards him, he asked with concern," Then, why didn't you go to the doctor or tell me? I would have taken you to the doctor."

Hearing his voice Maryam blinked her eyes with confusion. The concern in his voice wasn't sitting well with her. She looked into his eyes which were soft and full of worry. Is he worried for her? Why?

" Now why are you silent? Did you use any medicine for it?" He asked but Maryam was still looking at him with wide confused eyes.

He shouted at her and she replied shuttering," I use a lotion for my allergies."

" Where is it?" He asked softening his voice.

Maryam answered back timidly," You don't have to bother. I will tell a maid..........."

" Where is it?" He yelled in her face.

She replied," In the drawer."

Wrapping the towel around his torso he went to the drawer and took the lotion in his hand. Taking a small amount of lotion he will just rub it on her back she stopped him and he looked at her questioningly.

" There is no need to show me that you care for me. I can take care of myself," She said timidly taking the lotion in her hand.

He replied snatching it," Stop being stubborn."

" Why? Why you are showing sympathy for me suddenly? Ain't I just a substitute for you? I don't need anyone's sympathy. Just leave me alone. Aren't you done fucking me then why aren't leaving now? Leave, please," Shouting all these she burst into tears and for the first time, Yardan was genuinely hurt by her outburst.
