Mistress

Chapter 25- Meher is no more

After three years

Meher's p.o.v

" Asif, Asish bhaiya and Shruti. where are you all? Breakfast is ready," I yelled loudly from the kitchen.

I flipped the last paratha(bread) hurriedly which is still on the stove.

Our maid Kamla masi(aunt) is already setting the plate on the table. She is a very helpful and charming

woman in her late 40s. She might be a maid but for me, she is a motherly figure.

I came back to the dining area with a hotpot which is full of aloo paratha(Indian bread which is stuffed

with potato and some spices). I placed it on the table.

I am distributing the parathas in everyone's plate when someone pulled my dupatta. I looked below and

found our 4-year-old Shruti.

Shurti Mehta

She asked me with her baby voice," Fuppo(aunt), where is my chocolate milkshake?"

I said patting her small head," I will give your chocolate milkshake but, first you have to bring your papa

here. So, run fast and tell him that Meher fuppo is calling him."

Hearing me she runs fast towards Asish bhaiya's room. Seeing her running I just chuckled.

Then, I yelled loudly," Asif, don't be late. You can practice music later. Come fast and finish your

breakfast."

I heard him saying loudly, "Coming."

After that, I looked at the watch and it's already 9:15 a.m. Shit! I have to be on the farmhouse at 10

a.m. If I get late then my grumpy teacher aka my rude boss will scold me so much.

I told Kamla masi hurriedly," Masi, serve the food and do the dishes. I have to go."

She said smilingly," you don't have to worry Meher bitiya(dear)."

I will just leave the dining space when she asked me worriedly," Why don't you finish your breakfast?

You can't go to work in an empty stomach."

I hurriedly took 3/4 bites from a paratha and said giggling," I am full now. See you."

Saying that I run towards my room and heard her saying," Yeyy ladki bhi Nah! (Arghh! This girl!) Kabhi

apni khana khatam nehi karti!( Never finish her meal!)

I entered into my room and washed my face and hands hurriedly. I changed my clothes as fast as

possible and wore a simple pink colour salwar suit.

I covered my head with a dupatta and almost ready to go. I am now applying lip balm on my lips when I

heard a baby voice from behind.

The voice said cutely," Mamma!"

I looked behind and found that my 2-year-old son has woken up and he is peeping under the blanket.

Mehrab Ahmed Khan

I smiled at him and said affectionately," Mehrab! Mera baccha(my baby). You are awake?"

Saying that I picked him up in my arms and he let out a cute yawning. He asked me with his sleepy

baby voice," Whele ale yo ging mamma? ( Where are you going, mamma?)

I sat on the bed keeping him in my lap and said pulling his chubby cheeks," Mamma is going to work,

honey. I will be back soon and then play with you."

Hearing me he wriggled in my lap and I have to put him on the floor. He immediately laid down on the

floor and started nagging.

He said nagging," I wan tu gu wit yo( I want to go with you). Dom't lib my elone(Don't leave me alone).

I knew that he is going to nag. I knew it. It's his everyday routine. Whenever I got ready to go

somewhere he started his tantrums to go with me.

I can't take him with me. My boss is already very rude to me. If he sees my son then he will throw me

out from his farmhouse. I can't be expelled so soon. I have to complete my intern. Only then, I will be

able to apply for the job as an architect.

Well, right now I have to convince my little son by luring him with chocolates. It's my everyday's routine.

I have to lure him with chocolates and various kinds of toffee.

He is looking at me with his innocent eyes and pouting too much.

(A/N- Isn't he too cute???)

I am feeling like to kiss this cute pout. And I didn't waste any time. I kissed his pout sitting beside him

on the floor.

Then I said to him affectionately," Mamma will return with your favourite candies. Aren't you a good

boy? Please, be with your Shruti didi(sister) and Kamla dadi(grandma) for some time."

Hearing me, he gave me a beautiful baby smile and sat on my lap. He said kissing my nose," Me gud

boy( I am a good boy). Dun't wolly, mamma( Don't worry, mamma)".

I stood up picking him in my arms. He is now touching my dupatta and my face with his baby fingers.

I said kissing his forehead," I love you, Mehrab. You are my heart. My everything. Mamma loves you a

lot."

Saying that I hugged him so tightly like if I leave him even for a second then he will vanish in the air.

I am still hugging him and remembered all those times when Mehrab was in my womb. I have struggled

a lot while giving birth because of my young age.

That day when Mehrab born was a painful as well as a happy day for mine. That day I found the only

hope in my life. My Mehrab. That day was also a painful day for mine as well because I had lost my

other son during childbirth.

I was giving birth to twin boys. My destiny was so cruel to me that it snatched my other son. My other

child left this world during childbirth. I named him Mehmet. I still shed my tears remembering my

Mehmet.

I am shedding my tears silently for my Mehmet when Mehrab rested his head on my chest and said

cutely sucking his one baby finger," Melhab, lub yo thoo( Mehrab loves you too)

I hugged him more tightly and prayed looking at the ceiling," Yayya Allah, always protect my son from

every evil eye. Don't snatch him from me. If anything happens to him then I will not be able to breathe

anymore."

At Night

Sehreyar's p.o.v

I came back to my house after a long tiring day. I have signed two deals which cost billions. I don't

know for whose sake I am earning that much money. I have no hope or no goal in my life.

Now, I am too much tired that I didn't bother to have my dinner. I don't have the appetite to eat right

now. I just want to sleep on my bed. I just want to be freed from depressions.

I opened the door of my room and switch ed on the light.

I looked at my bed and after seeing the scenery in front of me, my already ruined mood became too

much sour. I just rolled my eyes and clenched my jaw due to anger.

I asked being pissed off, "What are you doing in my room, Sajal? And what type of clothes you are

wearing? Don't you have any shame?"

" Why should I feel shy in front of my husband? She asked biting her lips to seduce me.

This woman is getting on my nerve every day. She is irritating me every second whenever I come back

home. She has become a headache for me.

Every day she irritates me but today, she has crossed all her limits. She has started using her body to

seduce me.

She is now lying on the bed seductively wearing a see-through lingerie. Her whole body is on display.

Seeing her like that I felt embarrassed. I looked at another direction to avoid her.

I have to admit that Sajal is beautiful and has a figure which every man would admire and desire. But, I

have never felt anything for her.

We are married for almost 3 years and I haven't touched her yet. Actually, I don't feel any attraction for

her. She has tried to earn my love but how can I give her something which is already owned by

someone else.

I said rudely going towards my closet," leave my room right now. Otherwise, I will throw you out."

Suddenly, I felt that someone has hugged me from behind. I know who is it. It's none other than Sajal.

She said sugar dripping from her voice," I love you, Sehreyar."

I jerked her off from me and she landed on the bed in an awkward position. She looked at me with her

anger-filled eyes.

I asked her angrily," Will you leave? Or I should leave."

" You can't ignore me forever. I am your wife," She said standing up.

I replied sternly," You are living with me in the same house. You have my name. What more do you

want?

" I want my rights as a wife. I want to be a mother. I want to give birth to your baby," She said trying to

touch my cheeks.

This time my anger rose up and I said going towards the door," I think I should leave the room."

I will just leave the room when I heard her angry voice.

She asked me loudly," You are still addicted to that whore? Huh? Why can't you just forget her and

move on? She is no more in this world."

I clenched my jaw and fisted my palm due to raw anger. I closed my eyes to suppress my outburst.

How dare she call Meher a whore!

I walked towards her angrily and almost choked her neck.

I threatened her," If you ever dare to say any bad words about Meher again then I will chop off your

tongue and feed it to my hounds."

Saying that I left her throat and saw her sucking oxygen as much as she wants.

She is going to open her mouth again when I asked her holding her chin," Didn't Abbas uncle teach you

that you shouldn't say any bad words about a person who is not in this world anymore? Remember one

thing, I have married you just for my mother's promise to your father and for Dadi's sake. I will never be ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

able to give you the rights which a wife deserves."

"Sehreyar, just for once try to understand my love. I love you with my whole heart," Sajal said almost

crying.

I felt bad seeing her crying. But, I can't do anything. I can't give her the place which Meher holds in my

heart.

I replied to her sternly," Before marrying you I have told all my condition to you clearly. You agreed to all

of my conditions at that time. Then why are you asking for rights now? Don't waste my time as well as

your time. Just go from here and before leaving put some clothes on your body."

Saying all this I took out my towel and night suit.

I am going to enter into the washroom when she asked me yelling," What's so special about her that

you can't forget her for once?"

" She has a kind heart which makes her special," I replied without glancing at Sajal.
