Maya's POV

I was now heavily pregnant for 7 months now just two months more. Rohaan hadn't let me cook since he had heard about baby. I felt bad doing nothing and everyone taking care of me. I had put up a fight with him but in vain. I felt bad as Izzah had to cook but khala said that it would help Izzah in her married life. And I couldn't agree more but she became so much tired from doing all house chores even though maids were there but she wanted to do work herself for me.

Allah! This girl was so much sweet for a second I thought that her and Ammar would suit perfect but then I knew that Izzah was bold but Ammar was reserved person, totally introvert. I pushed away this thought as I saw Rohaan entering in room. He looked tired. We had came from a walk after eating dinner. Trust me he had made me much happy in these 7 months. Taking care from my eating schedule to my sleeping schedule. He actually had made me accustomed to his care.

I looked at his tired face. He lazily walked towards me, gave me smile and kissed my forehead. His scent reached my nostrils giving me a pleasurable feeling. He then went to change his suit. Not that I complain, he looked gentlmanly handsome wearing that black coat and white button up shirt but my mind always seemed to assume girls ogling at him. This mere thought was irritating me. I took his mobile and started plsying game. It seemed to distract me. After some time He came out without shirt. I was playing on his phone. When I was near making high score in temple run he took away the mobile making me scream in frustration. For a minute his eyes widened then he let out a sigh and gave me mobile.

Okay I regret screaming but I was near beating my previous high score.

I looked at him, he had turned his back to me and was laying at the farthest corner of bed. I put his mobile on side table and decided to say sorry to him. I moved closer to him and wrapped my arms around him. I could hear his breaths getting uneven. I put my head against his bare back and made slow circles on his stomach.

"Maya!" His warning voice made me stop for a second but then I again started. My hot breaths were fanning his bare back and I could feel him getting impatient. I smirked as I knew I had great effect on him.

"Sorry, pleaseee." I said and again his sigh could be heard. In a second he turned around and made me lay on his chest. I was heavy, I knew it. I struggled but his one stern look was enough to stop my movements. I placed my head in his neck and entwined our fingers. He placed a kissย  in my hairs.

"You know this jaan, it's my time and I don't even want that mobile between us." He said calmly.

"Aan what will you do when baby will come." I said and sighed. He only chuckled and rubbed his hands on my back.

"I will make baby sleep before us then we can have our time." He said lazily.

"Yeah, like baby would sleep according to your choice. Babies don't do that Aan." I said.

"We will see." He said while chuckling as I rolled my eyes at him. He wrapped his arms around me protectively and I snuggled closer to him. I slept in his arms peacrfully but still could feel something missing. Something that I didn't want to know.

The very next day was different. Maa called me and asked everyone to come at home. We all went there thinking something big happened. Wait... Ammar married someone without us knowing. Before I could thought more we reached there and the most unpleasant scene unfolded infront of me.

There they both were standing who had tried to ruin my life.Zain and Alisha.

"What are you both doing here?" I raised my voice. I could see Alisha flinching and tears flowing down from her eyes. The only thought crossed my mind was 'had he hurt her too?' I could feel my heart constricted at this mere thought.

"I am s-sorry. No w-we are so-rry." She said in a low voice enough to reach my ears. She was crying continuously. Zain hold her but she was nowhere listening to him. He looked at me expectantly but I turned my back and went to porch. Seriously after doing so much to me, they thought their sorry would make their sins right now Rohaan rushed behind me. He took a hold of my arm and turned me towards him. He cupped my face in his hands and brushed the tear away from my face.

"I-I can't." I told him the truth. I could not just forgive them. They had hurted me already. I wasn't going to risk again.

"I know, I know it but look at me Jaan-e-rohaan aren't you going to do this for me. Please meri jaan you will feel better. Just hear them out for once. Pleaseee." He said using the same tone of my saying 'please' last night.I smiled and slapped him on chest before holding his hand and kissing it. I knew my small gestures would always make him happy. He chuckled and kissed me on cheeks while saying 'just listen to her first'.To be honest I just wanted to know why my Alisha would do that. He hold my hand and took me inside. I sighed and went along with him.

We went inside. Zain was standing near Alisha's dad and uncle.Alisha was still crying but this time Khala and maa was consoling her. Like seriously, it seemed I had betrayed her. Before I could feel myself low, Rohaan hold my hand tightly and gave me assurance by his eyes. Allah! How I got so much lucky to have him beside me?

"Can I talk to them alone?" I said emphasizing alone. Everyone nodded but as Rohaan was leaving my hand I clutched his hands tightly saying that he wasn't allowed to leave me alone. He just grinned and nodded. How could he be so calm at this time too?

We went inside and Alisha asked Rohaan and Zain to wait outside the room for some minutes. They agreed.

"Why?" The only thing I could muster up was this and I wanted answers.

"I-I was jealous. You were always the one everyone wanted. You had this perfect family. You had all the money. I was bound to do everything you liked because I wasn't like you. Everyone loved you. I was just second option." She said with her gead hung down and tears leaking from her eyes.

"What?" It was the only thing I could say. I never thought that she was jealous of me. My head was throbbing and my heart was pounding.

"You are beautiful and even my crush Asher p-proposed me just to get closer to you. To spend some time with you. He used me to get nearer to you. I was heartbroken maya and you were enjoying your summer in London. I thought it would affect our friendship so I tried to act normal. You came and started talking about London. I never got the time to tell you. Then one day he proposed you and you rejected. He again came back to me because he was rejected and now he wanted someone close to him. I was engrossed thinking about his pain of bearing rejection. I said yes and that night he f-forced himself on me. I was saved by some kind people. T-They beat him up and safely got me home. I didn't came and guess what you were so engrossed in your basketball competition that you didn't even care to at least call me. I waited for your call but then when you picjed up my call you just said salaam and that you were busy and cut the call. I still survived maya. I still survived. Then you got married, I was happy for you. You told me about Zain every single thing. I started liking him but then thinking about you I stopped. But Asher came around again, I ignored him then one day when I was walking back to home at night he started following me. In panic I called you but Zain received the call telling me that you were bathing. I was in need of someone, I told him that someone was following me. He told me not to panic and then he came after five minutes. He stopped his car and told me to get inside. I was shivering badly. I was scared. I was scared Maya . I needed YOU, Maya but you were never around. Scared that Asher would do something to me again I sat in car. Zain then started giving me rides back to home from my work at night. Then we got into relationship. Whenever your thought crossed my mind, my mind would always tell me that whenever I wanted you, you were never there for me. But whenever you wanted me I was there by hook or by crook. Then I got to know from you that he was abusing you I couldn't handle it and put up a fight with him. I asked him to leave me and live his life with you but we both couldn't and when you told mama about Rohaan he had completely lost it. He gave you divorce. We got married and now look maybe Allah is punishing me for cheating you, he hasn't given me blessing of child. Zain didn't say it but I could see the longing in his eyes. I-I, I am s-sorry Maya. You can punish me like the way you want. I will not say a word. But please just forgive me." Her cries and hiccups bellowed in room and heart constricted seeing her condition. She was going through so much and I couldn't do anything for her.

I regretted not for listening her before. Even though this didn't define her cheating but she wasn't the only one wrong here I was too, not about Zain's case but about Asher's case.

I could feel the my tears on cheeks. Before coming inside Rohaan told me one thing Forgiveness is better than revenge in eyes of Allah. But still I won't forgive Zain. I had endured alot. I was a weak person before or I thought so but I won't be anymore. I could forgive cheating but not abusing, if they had told me that they want each other we could have leave on good terms. I would forgive her but not Zain plus I would forgive Alisha but not forget it.

I still didn't know, why I was doing it or Was I even doing right?

I moved toward her and enveloped her shivering form. She hugged me tightly. I caressed her hairs and we both said sorry. Not for one but for many things.

"I can't forgive Zain. For God's sake Alisha I was abused. I endured everything which I shouldn't have.I was stupid back then but not anymore. I want him to get punish. I'm going to report it to police. It's really the least punishment for monster like him. The things he did to me. I was enduring everything but today you guys came and I could feel myself again indulging in p-pain..." I said while hiccuping.

"Will you feel better if you d-do that?" Alisha asked with her head hung low.

"I don't know. Maybe...He hurt me alot Alisha...You hurt me alot. For days I cried in dark, gloomy store room thinking where I went wrong. I-I can't forgive him and to be honest I won't." My face was red and cheeks were wet and she could feel her heart stopping any moment.

'Was I really going to call police? Was I really going to do that? All those nightmares, all that crying, wouldn't jail a really small punishment for that monster?But I wanted to see him regretting and getting punishment.' I thought.

With our thoughts still messed up we went out only to see everyone sighing. Hamail and Izzah got water for us. In meantime Zain said sorry. To be honest his sorry didn't matter.

Hamail and Izzah gave us water then Hamail hugged Alisha very tightly saying she missed her. She hugged back while giggling.

"Are you guys thinking that I have forgiven them?"I raised my voice and looked at everyone.

Hamail flinched back from Alisha and everyone looked at me.

"Have you n-not?" Maa asked me with fear evident on her face.

"I haven't and I'm not going to forgive this monster." I pointed my finger towards Zain.

"Please call the police." I looked at Rohaan and he nodded quietly and took out his mobile. While everyone gasped.

"Wh-what?" Zain asked in disbelief.

Then Ammar punched Zain with full force as Zain took a step towards me. Zain grunted but didn't fight back. Rohaan came and stood infront of me.Everyone suddenly stood up with a jerk in shock. I could see tears brimming in Alisha's eyes but then Alisha's baba glare was enough to keep her shut. I knew he wanted Zain to feel pain as he had given to everyone of us.

"Do you still want to be with him?" Alisha's baba asked her with anger.

Alisha quietly nodded her head making her father more angry but my father held his father and shook his head negatively.ย  Ofcourse he still see Alisha as his own daughter. He always said 'I have three daughters and one son' and 'children make mistakes and parents forgive them.'

Ammar looked at Alisha and sighed.

" I just wanted to tell you that you have already hurt my one sister but if you try to hurt my other sister Alisha then you will literally face death from my hands but first enjoy your time in jail." Ammar said in such a threatful voice that even I shivered at my place. Zain just nodded.

We all knew that Ammar couldn't hurt anyone but we never tried to test his patience too. He was innocent and kind hearted but dare to touch his family and you would see death. In Zain's case I had taken promise from him that he wouldn't do anything but still I knew that Zain lost his many deals because of Ammar. Ammar didn't let his business grow but didn't let it down too because he still care for Alisha.

In few minutes police was there and they took my statement and Rohaan didn't even let anyone say a word in between, he just stood there and asked me to give my statement peacefully. Alisha's loudย  crying voice, somehow affected me but it didn't affect my statement. I was being heartless but she was too once, when I was in pain. Also I didn't want my sisters to take a lesson from me to endure abuse to save a relationship. No, never. I wanted to come out as strong woman and I wanted them to know that always enduring things and letting these abusers go is never a good thing.

Police under arrested Zain and took him from there. He was quiet all the time. Was he regretting? Well he should! Alisha went behind him till they throwed him in the car and went away.

After police took him, Maa and Khala consoled Alisha but I never went near her. She stopped crying after few minutes. Rohaan was near me all this time. He caressed my hairs and looked at me.

"What happened Jaan-e-rohaan?" He asked and sat near me.

"I did right?" I asked him with uncertainty in my eyes.

"You took a really strong decision. And you endured it all so you should be deciding what should be his punishment and just know that I am proud of you for taking such decision." He gave me assuring eyes and gently kissed my forehead.

Alisha came to us quietly and her head was hung low. I looked at her quietly too.

"I'm really sorry Maya. I was wrong . Please forgive me. Please forgive Zain too." She said the last part in very low voice.

I got up from sofa but she flinched away a little. I quietly took her in my arms and she just kept her face on my shoulders while hiccuping.

After that Ammar took Alisha to her house and I came back to my house. Everyone consoled me and Izzah looked so happy. She was roaming around saying that I had taken an awesome decision and if had not taken that decision then she would have secretly called the police or have Zain murdered somehow.

That night I slept peacefully in Rohaan's arm knowing I had my bestfriend now and that monster was rotting in jail.

Assalam o alikum beautiful people!!!
