17 APRIL
Ayzal's POV
I was late today again last night I couldn't sleep because ramish again have a really fever so i stay awake all night by himself, also my heart was tightened all night I don't know the reason but my heart was beating faster than usual my anxiety was taking toll on me and I had no clue why I was feeling like my world is going to crash , in the morning I reluctantly left my boy with his nanny with heavy heart, I wore a bit more representative clothes than usual, I was wearing grey suit with shirt inner shirt, my head was covered with smoky grey hijab and face was covered with black veil and somehow i reached office, and went straight towards the conference meeting room, i burst inside and saw manager and my boss Marcus was standing there looking worried, as they saw me, they marched towards me which makes me more confused and worried at the same time as Mr marcus spoke up "where were you Ayzal everyone is calling you since last evening where were you?" I spoke up slightly embrassingly "my son was really sick I apologise but what happened why are you worried and scared?" Mr Marcus spoke in more frustration "the client is here the meeting is going to start in less than 20 mins but our software is not working" my eyebrows furrowed because in my work never face this type of glitches, I spoke up "don't worry I'll go and check give me 15 to 20 mins sir"Mr Marcus nodded and spoke "I give you 30 mins max the client is already here and I want this deal at any cost, go to Leonard's room, he is also working on this problem" I nodded and immediately rushed to leave the room but as I stepped out my forehead bumped into something and I stumbled back.
Author POV
Maaz reached Marcus Holdings and CEO's assistant sam lead him towards conference meeting room, maaz was with his team consist of 5 to 6 people when they were in elevator with Sam, Sam got the message from Marcus to hold the client's team away from meeting from because there are a few glitches in their software, but Sam replied that they are already in elevator, but unfortunately Marcus didn't saw that message. Within a few mins maaz reached in front of conference room with his team, Sam open the room's door and let him in with his team first as maaz entered with his team someone bumped into him and they stumbled back, before they could fall back maaz hold their arms immediately for support as he spoke "Oops, sorry ma'a-" he stopped as he saw those eyes behind veil and the noises around him disappeared because he immediately recognised it was his Ayzal's eyes.
Maaz expressions disappeared and eyes widened his grip tightened around ayzal's arm and Ayzal she wasn't responding or blinking just staring, all this happened under few mins, when marcus step forward clearing his throat while speaking "I apologise, Mr ma-" he couldn't speak further as he saw maaz was still holding Ayzal's arm tightly and Ayzal wasn't responding too, so Sam tried to hold ayzal's arm to pull her back, but before he could touch her maaz reacted by swatting his hand away sharply and pulled Ayzal against his chest, ayzal's chin hit his chest with force as she was still looking up, maaz spoke to Sam in the most rudest tone "I'll chop your fingers in pieces" Marcus and Sam and everyone in the room were taking back by that tone, before Marcus could defend or apologize Ayzal mumbles "maaz" maaz head snapped down he removed his hands from her arm instead cupped her face in his hands, his eyes became watery as he heard her calling his name, he nodded desperately as he spoke in a shaky voice which was stark contrast of the rude voice he just used with Sam "y-yes yes maaz, my bubbles, my Ayzal" and he pressed his lips against his forehead, everyone in the room gasped loudly in union their eyes widened out, Ayzal closed her eyes as those lips pressed against her forehead, her hands gripped maaz suit jacket. Maaz didn't think about pulling away, the situation made everyone overwhelmed, maaz and Ayzal both weren't expecting meeting each other like this, no one did, maaz felt ayzal's grip loosened and she becomes limped, he immediately pulled back holding her waist as she collapsed on his chest, everyone in the room panic, ayzal's female colleagues stepped forward but maaz already stable her in his arms as he spoke "no no no no, look at me, no no Ayzal listen to my voice" but she already lost the consciousness, Marcus spoke up "I don't know what's going on here but we need to take her to medical asap" maaz picked up Ayzal in bridal style in his arms while saying "then guide me" Sam immediately guide him towards the medical room maaz followed him. Maaz placed Ayzal on bed as nurse came in the room to check Ayzal.
Ayzal POV
When I saw that face in front of my eyes, I forgot to even stand, I hold his shirt tightly for support I don't know the reason why he pulled me closer me closer, but helplessly his name rolled out of my lips, before everything went black. I woke up on a single bed I slowly sat down with a soft wince because my head was aching, as I looked around I realised it was medical room, my gaze fell on floor where maaz was doing sujood, I stared at him for a few seconds, before getting off the bed and sat down on the floor beside his prayer mat, I pulled my knees to my chest while staring at him, I could see tears rolling down his face, for salam he turned his head on right then on left side towards me, then he looks towards me, we both didn't say anything, I wiped his tears with my fingers which were trembling, he grabbed my wrist and pressed a kiss before leaning his cheek on my palm, we stayed like that for a few mins before he again kissed my palm and spoke "can I take off this" he touch my veil, the pulled my veil down and I saw a bright smile formed on his face which makes me slightly shy, tears kept rolling down through our cheeks but no one is tried to hide or act strong, I spoke up "I don't want to leave you"
Maaz POV
As I heard those words I gripped get hand tightly "I'll never let you leave me too, you are all I have" my voice was shaky and low, I gently pulled her closer and pulled her head on my chest, after a few seconds I felt her hand on my jaw before I heard her chuckle which excites my heart and she spoke "beard" I looked down and spoke "is it good" she nodded, I couldn't resist and kissed her on her lips, she didn't respond back but she didn't pulled back either, it was good sign to deepened the kiss, she respond back slowly, but I break the kiss and rubbed her lower lip with my thumb as she spoke "you are my moon who brings back the light in my dark life" I smiled, I battled her nose with mine which makes her giggle before I replied "then you are the sun who keeps me bright even from behind" slowly and reluctantly we pulled back and stood up as she said "we sound so cheesy" I folded the prayer mat before i moved my attention towards her, I took her hands in mine, I looked down at our hands for a few seconds before looking at her "are you coming back home with me" I looked down again hiding my tears, she cupped my face and make me look at her before she replied "you still want me?"
Author POV
As maaz asked his question ayzal's throat tightened so she asked "you still want me?" Maaz nodded while his face was still in her hand and he replied with a soft sob "I always do" she closed her eyes and let the tears fall, maaz removed her hand from his face and pulled her in his embrace, he gently rub her back in a soothing manner before Ayzal speak between sobs "you don't know who I'm..." Maaz immediately covered her mouth with his hand because he understood she might reveal her past which he already knows but he doesn't want her to know it, he pressed his hand on her mouth and spoke while wiping her tears with other hand even through his own tears were unstoppable "I don't care, I don't know what you were or what you did or what happened to you, I'm not interested, the thing that matters is you are here right in my arms where you actually belongs and that's more than enough for me" she stared up at him, he kept wiping her tears until she calmed down, maaz also calmed down along her, he made her sat back down on bed just then with a knock Sam entered, maaz covered ayzal's face with his face she wasn't wearing her veil, Sam saw that movement, so he didn't look towards Ayzal and spoke to maaz "I hope everything is good here" maaz nodded as he stood in front of Ayzal, Ayzal also stayed behind him and wear her veil as Sam spoke to maaz "the agreement papers are gone, we need your sign Mr Marcus is waiting for you" maaz spoke up professionally "I'll be there in a min, thank you so much" and sam left, he moved his attention towards maaz who was looking at him with adoring eyes and asked "the meeting is done?" Maaz chuckled and hold her face in his hand gently, he kissed the tip of her nose and replied "yes bubbles, we had a really good deal" Ayzal tilted her head on side and asked "first I was your bubbles then buttercup then again your bubbles" maaz poked her cheek and replied "it depends how you act, right now you are acting so bubbly and sweet, so you are my bubbles once your sass will return you'll be my buttercup" she scrunched her nose up and hit his arm "go and sign the deal" he bowed dramatically "as your wish, but aren't you coming with me? You missed the meeting but I want you to be there when I signed the contract, it's my biggest project" she smiled and got off the bed, maaz rested his hand on her lower back and they walked out took elevator and reached back meeting room, as they entered female colleagues in the room 'aww' in union because they finally understood the Ayzal was actually maaz's missing bride of 3 years, maaz signed the contract, while Ayzal was busy with her colleagues who were really happy for her, until I got a phone call she attend the call her and got slightly worried felt someone placed hand on her shoulder she turned around it was maaz, she cut the call and spoke to him "I need to go back home right now" maaz eyebrows furrowed "what do you mean by going home? You are coming with me" Ayzal immediately nodded then spoke "no no" she paused before speaking again "yeah I need to go back but you are coming with me, you need to meet someone" maaz shrugged his shoulders, he completed other details ASAP and then they went towards ayzal's aka maniha's house and maaz security was still around them because he was facing security issues after the announcement of his big achievements, the cars stopped in front of a small house, nanny opened the front door as both maaz and Ayzal want inside the house, maaz saw a little boy ran out of the room and cling to ayzal's leg and spoke in a whiney tone "MAMA!!!" maaz eyebrows furrowed he saw Ayzal picked him up and he blurted out "we didn't do that thing Ayzal, then this boy?!!!" Ayzal was taking back by his words her head snapped towards maaz and she shook her head immediately "NO!!!! HE IS MY FRIEND'S SON!!" Maaz ran his finger through his hand and mumbled "I'm an idiot" the he spoke to her "but he called you mama" Ayzal was about to speak but she paused, she took ramish back towards his room and gave him toys maaz followed her silently she sat down on ramish bed as ramish was playing with his toys on the floor, maaz sat down beside Ayzal and noticed her sad expressions, she spoke up "her mother Maniha was my best friend and a few months ago she dead and gave me ramish's responsibility" maaz immediately understood she was the same Maniha about whom aima told, he asked "how she died and where is his father?" Ayzal replied while looking at ramish "his father Ali died 4 months before he was born and Maniha has cancer" maaz didn't ask anything again, he gently kissed her temple before sitting down on floor beside ramish and started playing with him. Ramish was confused as maaz sat down so Ayzal spoke up "look sweetheart he is your Baba" maaz looked towards Ayzal and asked "what is Baba?" Ayzal replied "it means father" maaz looked towards ramish before smiling and nodded "yeah Baba, I'm the Baba of the baby" and he started playing with ramish.
Soon they took a flight back to Canada, and no one knows not ayzal's family or maaz family about the ayzal's arrival, they landed in Canada, they walked out of the airport and bunch of security around them, ramish was sleeping in his stroller which was being pushed by one of the guard, and maaz was walking holding Ayzal's hand but then....
Ayzal heard a loud shot sound before maaz's body jerked back and collapsed on her body, she immediately hold her body then felt something wet on her hands as she saw her hands it was blodd and maaz was struggling to breathe, the chaos spread around them and maaz body hit the floor and a loud scream left ayzal's mouth, one guard took ramish immediately towards the car and Ayzal fell on her knees pressing her hands on maaz's wound to stop the blood which was running out uncontrollably, the maaz immediately moved and take maaz hospital but Ayzal never left his side.
I saved your name in quiet nights,
In empty rooms, in fading lights,
Where every echo called your tone—
But still, I faced it all alone
Love you honeybees
Hey there so from the next part I'm gonna end the past and continue from present life of maaz and Ayzal which I mentioned in the first second and maybe third chapter so please connect the dots.
Sorry for the mistakes
