Chapter Sixty One
"What do you think mom? That I didn’t forgive him? How can I not? He is my father, but I can never forget the day he snatched my love from me." Irtaza whispers to her mother.
Not able to bear anymore, Irtaza marches out of the room, when a tinkle of bangles make him look up to see his beloved wife standing there.
And one look at her face was enough to tell Irtaza that she heard everything.
Mushk was going upstairs to call Irtaza as she wanted to meet her brother, when loud voices coming out of the study stopped her.
She was baffled hearing those words, but one word stuck in her mind.
Irtaza loved her.
He loved her.
She didn't know how to respond, her mind was blank. Hearing footsteps coming close to her, she knew it was Irtaza, she kept looking at him who was smiling at her, but he wasn't able to hide the emotions swarming in his eyes.
Fear and nervousness.
Fear of rejection and nervousness of what her reaction will be.
"Uh..I-I was thinking to visit my brother before going to the court, will you please take me there?" Mushk whispers to him, lost in his beautiful onyx eyes.
His cologne cocooned her like a warm blanket in winter, his closeness was making her heart thump wildly.
Irtaza visibly relaxed and nodded.
