Meher's p.o.v
After eyeing me for few minutes she said sarcastically," So, you are that bastard's sister. I have to admit that you are worthy enough to be my grandson's mistress. You have a pretty face and a nice body."
I didn't understand what's she talking about. I have already understood that she isn't that much pleased with me. But, why? I haven't done anything wrong with anyone.
I asked her confusingly," Dadi Ji, what are you saying?"
My face started stinging where her palm connected. She slapped me hard on my right cheek making me shocked.
I looked at her with my questioning eyes when she said," I am not your Dadi Ji. You will call me Bade madam (senior madam). Understood?"
I nodded my head in positive. This woman is really scary. She slapped me without any reason. I don't know why these Seikh family members hate me! What's wrong I have done to them! I am feeling that this whole Seikh family is insane. First that crazy grandson and now this crazy grandma.
I wanted to yell on her but composed myself considering her age.
Then, she said giving me a disgusted glare," I will tell Sehreyar to make your life miserable just the way your brother made my Haniya's life miserable."
My life is already miserable. She will tell her grandson to make my life more miserable! Is she for real! But, who is this Haniya? Why did she take my brother's name?
I asked her curiously, "What are you talking about? Who is Haniya? What my brother had done with her?"
This time she clutched my hairs tightly and said angrily," Are you trying to be innocent? Huh! Don't you really know your elder brother's deeds?
" Please, bade madam. Leave my hairs. I don't know anything," I said trying very hard to free myself from her tight grip.
She left my hairs and said angrily," Your elder brother had played with my Haniya's feelings. He has betrayed her. Your brother is a murderer who has killed his own child."
I couldn't believe what I have heard. Bhaiya never told me about any Haniya. In his life, there was no woman as per as I remember. And, child! Bhaiya was unmarried then from where his child came.
I said defending my brother," My brother can't betray anyone. You are lying. My brother can't be a murderer. He is the most sensible and kind-hearted person in this whole world."
I completed my sentence and another slap landed on my left cheek. This old witch has again slapped me. I looked at her with my anger filled eyes. She can't slap me like that without any reason.
I am looking at her with my angry eyes when she said venom dripping from her voice," Lower your eyes, slut! You are supporting your bastard brother in front of me! Huh! Ask your brother what he has done to Haniya Seikh. Ask your brother why he killed his own child? Ask him that didn't his hand tremble when he killed his own child? Because of your brother's betrayal, my Haniya is in the mental hospital and suffering."
This time I couldn't control my anger anymore and said angrily," You are insane like your grandson. You can't blame my brother without any reason. I don't believe any of your words. And, I am not a slut. Your grandson is a bastard who took advantage of my helpless situation."
" You......" she tried to say something when I said sarcastically," Actually, it's not your grandson's fault that he doesn't respect woman's. It's your fault that you couldn't teach him how to respect woman's."
I completed my sentence and found her red eyes staring at me. Her eyes are blazing like molten lava. She is looking at me so angrily like anytime she will eat me alive.
She said giving me a satanic glare," you will regret for talking like that to me. Just wait and watch what I do to you."
I didn't understand what's her motive. I am looking at her with my questioning eyes and confused expression.
Suddenly, without any warning, she falls on the floor and banged her forehead on the table. Her forehead started bleeding and she screamed loudly for help.
I am not understanding why she intentionally hurt herself. I crouched down to her level to help her when she hold both of my hands and placed them around her neck. She intentionally pressed my hands on her neck and pretend like I am choking her neck.
I said trying to free my hands," What are you doing? Leave my hand. Are you insane?"
She just gave me a sinister smile between her sobbing. She whispered like a creep," I have done my part. Now, Sehreyar will do the rest."
" Huh! I uttered confusingly and she screamed loudly.
She said screaming," Someone helps me. This girl will kill me. Please. Help."
What's she talking about? Why the hell I will try to kill her!
Hearing her screaming, the maids and the security guards came running. They weren't expecting this site in front of them. They are looking at us with their shocked expression.
I became bewildered. I am not understanding what just happened. But, one thing I am sure that this old woman needs to be hospitalised in a mental hospital.
Before I could utter any words she yelled loudly," Guards, hold this mad girl. She tried to kill me."
" What? when did I try to kill you? Why are you lying? I asked her angrily yet confusingly. She can't blame me for this incident.
" Why are you looking at my face? Grab her tightly," She ordered the guards and they hold me by my forearm.
I started wriggling and yelling," Leave me. I didn't do anything. It was this woman. She is trying to trap me."
But, the guards didn't listen to any of my words and tightened their hold on me where I am thrashing my hands and feet to free myself.
After that, she ordered the maids," Why are you looking at my face? Call Sehreyar immediately. Tell him that his mistress tried to kill me."
She tried to hug him when he flinched backwards and gave her another disgusted and angry look.
He replied sarcastically," Love! I have never loved you. I have just used you. I used you to insult your brother. I used you to break your brother's arrogance. Do you know yesterday he came to my office and pleaded like a beggar? It was really fun to see him like that."
" How can you be so cruel! Your enmity was with my brother. I was innocent. Why did you use me? Don't think about me. At least think about your unborn child. I am already three months pregnant," Haniya said sobbing. She is feeling too much hurt by Adeel's every word.
Suddenly, she holds his one hand and rested his hand on her belly. She said crying," This baby is ours. It's the gift from Allah. Don't refuse this gift."
She is looking at him with her hopeful and pleading eyes when Adeel started laughing like a madman.
He took away his hand from her belly threw her on the floor very harshly. She landed on the floor like a rag doll on her stomach. She cried out loudly," Ah.....my belly....my child. "
Adeel didn't give any shit about her crying. He said kicking on her womb," You were pregnant. Very soon You will not remain pregnant anymore."
Saying that he continued his kicking like an animal where Haniya was just crying and requesting to stop. She pleaded for her unborn child's life but Adeel didn't show any mercy.
She pleaded trying to save her womb from his violent kicks," Adeel, don't be so cruel. Ah.....please stop.....it's paining. ...how can you do that? It's your baby also."
Adeel didn't listen to any of her pleadings. He is kicking and saying like a monster," I will never accept that fucker's sister as my wife. You are nothing to me. This child in your womb means nothing to me."
Haniya is whimpering in pain and at the verge of fainting. She is bleeding between her legs. Her white dress is soaking with her blood. The floor became bloodstained due to her blood. But, still, Adeel continued unleashing his monster.
Now, She is saying only one thing," One day you will regret your every action. Allah will not pardon you for murdering my unborn child. You are a sinner."
Saying that she lost her whole consciousness. Adeel saw that she is bleeding and almost dead. But, He didn't show any emotion for her miserable condition. There is no remorse or guiltiness on his face.
He became tired after kicking her like an animal. He is now sweating. He called his security guards and ordered them," Throw away this blooded bitch on the road and tell the swiper to clean this floor. After seeing her condition her brother will understand what's the consequences of messing up with Adeel Ahmed Khan."
The guard obliged him and threw away Haniya's blooded and injured body on the road.
The passerby from the road took Haniya in the nearby hospital. They can't believe that this type of human exist in the world who has abused a pregnant woman.
Flashback ended.
Adeel stood up from his lying position and yelled loudly in guiltiness. He started punching on the wall and crying badly.
His knuckles are bleeding profusely still he continued his punching. He screamed punching on the wall," I am a sinner. I have murdered my own child. I am a sinner...I am a sinner...."
