Rikza's POV:

I was dropped near his home by those men and as expected everyone approached me whilst initiating their neverending queries with worry plastered on their faces.  I knew that they were concerned for me, but anyhow I can't tell them the truth.

Don't get me wrong here. Neither I'm I afraid of his bullying nor Am I afraid of being killed, because I know he won't shoot me for sure. I am not a typical girl who gets frightened with these rubbish blackmails.

I comforted them by telling a story that I was locked up in a bathroom and when I felt like I will faint any next following minute, I preferred to go home and thus on my way home, I unfortunately fainted.

When I got my conscience back , I found myself in a girl's room. She was the one who helped me. She dropped me here and left soon because she was getting late for her work. Blah Blah...

I noticed thar Mr.Akdoo was observing me all the time. He had reached home a few minutes prior to my arrival. He had that evil smirk on his face as he was sending me glares.

I rolled my eyes at him. AHH, I'm really scared, Note the sarcasm there. Like seriously,huh!

I was completely at peace unlike them because I was kept completely safe and sound without any harm. Neither the kidnapper nor his men tried to even touch me.

Anyways, I am at my room now, thinking about what Daadu said that day. I mean the day when he asked my hands for his grandson, Ayaan.

"Beta, I need you to do me a favour?."He said more like a question.

I furrowed my brows in confusion but later nodded my head to my right inorder to listen to what he was saying.

After witnessing my response, He continued,

"Beta, I want you to stay quiet, I mean I actually don't want Ayaan to know the truth. I hope you understand."

"But why dado? He deserves to know the truth.He should know the fact that Sana is betraying him. She is cheating on him and he should know about it." I replied what I felt right.

I donno why he is trying to hide the truth from him.

"Beti, listen. Ayaan is really possessive when it comes to family.

He can't stand the truth. He Will be broken. He will shatter into pieces.

He will act strong from outside, but I know him very well. He Will really not be able to handle this. He loves her unconditionally and when he comes to know that she is betraying him, he will fail to believe in love for his entire life and I really don't want that to happen. Please try to understand".

So now I am completely sick worried about his behaviour. I mean how Am I supposed to handle his silly rude behaviour around me when I'm not even the one at fault.  I'm even restricted to exposé the truth. I sighed looking at him whilst approving of his demands.

He prayed for our well being and left the room leaving me in the amidst of confusions.

May be Daadu was feeling restless about the marriage, probably because of Sana. She will create a fuss all over the media for sure and obviously Daadu will not let that happen.

"How could he let her ruin THEIR reputation among the public and the prestige they have amongst the social media?"

I felt sleepy and therefore, I preferred to go to my dreamland because indeed my dreams are far better than the reality. 

______________________

Normal POV:

Daadu was thinking about Rikza's words lately.

"Daadu, what's the need of urgency for the marriage now? C'mon I'm just eighteen Daadu and you expect me to handle this huge responsibility?

Daadu I wanna be independent right now. I need to search for a decent job inorder to live a peaceful life".

Rikza tried to excape herself from this marriage by using all the possible excuses she could give him and when she felt like she was losing it, she later exposed her feelings out where she was deeply emotional about her mother.

I don't want Momma to struggle there. I mean I really don't want to burden Aunty with our expenses. I need to find a job for myself and momma, so that I can handle our expenses on myself and not to be pitied by others regarding our state. I don't want anyone to lay a finger on us for what we are now. Momma being a widow and I being an orphan child. I wanna stand up on my own feet. Let me handle this responsibility Daadu, please!"

After listening to her, he came up with a decision which will be beneficial in both the cases. He came with an idea which will solve both the solutions at the very same time.

Ayaan who will be saved from being betrayed and Rikza's desire for being independent will also be fulfilled accordingly.

Sana was kept unaware of the reality that she is being rejected and probably she is not getting married to Ayaan at first place. It was nearly a week left for the marriage and everyone were in a hustle.

Daadu had a gut feeling that Sana will try to ruin their plan if she comes to know about it. She will definitely create a huge fuss and try some silly tactics so that Ayaan could probably reject the proposal.

Daadu told the reality to Jawad Hashim (Ayaan's Dad) and inturn, He accepted his decision whereas Ayaan was not expecting any of the events that was taking place in his life.

He was out of his mind with Daadu's orders and his eagerness for the wedding which was completely irrelevant.

"Your wedding will be held this week and not the next week."

"Ladies,I want you all to do the preparations. Don't worry about the catering services and the function halls, we will take care about it".

Everyone was utterly shocked by this sudden change of dates for the marriage and were in a hustle to do the preparations.

Rikza's POV:

I'm hell worried right now.Today is my Mehandi(Traditional event taking place two days prior to the actual wedding day/Rasm-e-Henna ceremony).

Henna is being applied on both of my hands and everyone were enjoying the event heartily.

Women gathered playing Dholki and teen girls singing songs etc.

I'm dressed up in a yellow suit as per the occasion and dolled up with floral tiyara and bangles which is annoying me to an extent.

The wedding day:

Rikza's POV:

It's the time for my Nikah and the Qazi Sahab were asking for our approval when suddenly we heard a voice.We turned to the direction of the voice and there stood Sana with furious expression on her face.

He composed himself and tried to act cool but failed literally,so he initially started to stare at the floor like it was something worth stalking,huh:/

He was definitely in the state of physically present mentally absent.  He was totally absentminded,gawking at the floor,not even bothering my answer.

Seems like he don't really care, neither of my approval nor denial.

Anyways, I approved him to be my husband and signed the legal papers and Now, I'm legally married to him. Quite forcefully, yet with my will:/

He signed the marital papers which includes meher (alimony),etc and whispered 'Qabool Hai' three times with his hands fisted like a ball as if he was trying to control himself for God knows what.

He stormed out of the spot immediately after saying those two magical words *sarcasm to be noted*

She made her way near Akdoo and smirked at him.

"Congratulations Ayaan" she said with a sarcastic tone.

Her face fumed with anger but she shrouded it with her fake smile.  A glint of guilt could be seen clearly from HIS eyes for keeping her unaware of this marriage.

And literally I think I lost my will to live my life,my way.
