Chapter 42, his confession

Then one day she took him to see her mother who was hospitalized, and introduced him as her fiancé. Her mother was overjoyed to hear this because she was so worried for Ruby, but after this news, the happiness on her face worked as a blackmailing on Huzaifa. And he promised her mother that he would take good care of Ruby.

And it was not until a week had passed since that day that she died. The pain of losing her mother had made her forget her longing for marriage. But Huzaifa had not forgotten his promise, and in his eyes, Ruby was his first love, for which he had waited for two years.

One month after her mother's death, Huzaifa brought her to this bungalow, where he informed her that shortly after, Maulvi and some of his close friends were coming to perform their marriage ceremony.

At first, Ruby was in a state of shock. On one side, her heart kept warning her that Huzaifa was in love with someone else, and by marrying him she would ruin her life. But on the other hand, her mind was trying to convince her that this is the last chance when she could change her destiny.

Huzaifa was no ordinary person, he was the son of a noble father who thought he loved her. Yes, denying this marriage would mean ruining her sovereign destiny with her own hands.

She struggled for a moment in the battle of her heart and mind. But in Ruby's case, it is the brain that decides. Even that day, her mind won the battle with her heart. And just after a few hours, Ruby Ahmed became Ruby Huzaifa Mueez.

After the marriage, Huzaifa was fulfilling her every small and big wish in the blink of an eye. It wasn't that she had never had any luxury before, but for the first time in her life, Ruby realized that there was more to life than meets the eye.

It was as if Huzaifa had opened the door to a new world for her, but she was getting more and more anxious with each passing day because now she was realizing that Huzaifa was slowly moving away from her.

And one night, she became convinced of this when he once heard him calling out Moomal's name in his sleep.

It was not that she was in love with him, and now it hurt her heart to hear him call someone else's name, but now he was her husband who had voluntarily signed the marriage papers. And now she can't see him in love with anyone else.

She stared at him silently, saddened by the thought when she felt the light of the mobile screen on her side table. Turning her face away from him, she picked up the mobile. But seeing the name written on the screen, she fell victim to her jealousy. But she still felt concerned about what she was going to do.

The mobile was not her, but Huzaifa's, which she had placed silently on her side table last night so as not to disturb his sleep. But now, looking at the Moomal's name she was so much in rage that she desperately wanted to attend this call and by telling her the news of their marriage, tear the heart of that person in the same way as her heart is being stabbed every day because of her.

She was constantly looking at the name written on the mobile screen, and her finger was hesitant to answer the call. But suddenly, Huzaifa snatched the mobile from her hand.

Ruby looked at him in shock.

"What were you doing...?" Huzaifa's angry voice was clearly showing his anger.

Ruby took a deep breath and spoke in her typical confident tone. "don't know how long the poor thing has been calling. I thought I'd tell her you're still asleep and can't talk to her."

He gritted his teeth and stopped himself from saying anything harsh.

Ruby changed her tone as she watched him. "Why are you looking so angry? She knows about us anyway. That's why I thought I'd answer her call. And I really wanted to talk to your best friend." She deliberately used the word "best friend" for Moomal.

Huzaifa took a deep breath and wiped the drops of sweet that came to his forehead with his hand and looked at her seriously.

"Ruby, please never try to attend my family's calls again...."

"Okay, I won't, don't be angry. Tell me how your headache is... Ruby asked in an anxious voice.

Seeing her changing the topic, he also controlled his anger and shook his head."It's better now."After saying that, he quietly went to the bathroom to freshen up. As he left, Ruby's smiling face suddenly filled with anger and disdain.

She got up and went out to make breakfast for both of them.

Huzaifa had also come out ready. At Ruby's call, they both started having breakfast together.

But during breakfast, Ruby kept looking at him, thinking about what she was going to say.

At last, she uttered what came to her heart. "I've been thinking about your friend, Moomal."

At the mention of Moomal, his hands stopped and he looked at her with questioning eyes. "What...?"

Ruby's body was set on fire by his sudden interest in the mere mention of her. But she controlled herself and spoke with a smile on her face.

"You know my friend Fayyaz, the one who holds the important position in a multinational company...?"

Huzaifa did not understand the sudden mention of her friend. "yes, I know him, but what do you mean...?"

"He told me a few days ago that he wanted to get married and was looking for a good housewife, and I was wondering why don't I talk to him about Moomal." She said, showing her excitement.

The sound of a spoon hitting the plate, echoed throughout the living room.

Ruby looked at him in shock. "What's this!?"

"Next time, don't even think of talking nonsense in front of me!"

"What did I say wrong? Fayyaz is a good man, he's handsome, rich, who will be the better choice than him?! She can't stay with you her whole life! She has the full right to live her own life too." This time Ruby stopped her discussion.

"Who gave you the right to decide her life!? You have no right to think about her, so it would be better for you to stay away from this..."

Ruby was shocked by his outburst. She was disbelievingly looking at his angry face.

She couldn't believe that Huzaifa could talk to her in that tone, and that too, only for that stupid girl?

"You really want to talk to me about the rights? I have the right! Because your right to be your wife belongs only to me and not to her, and you yourself said that as soon as you meet a good man, you, yourself will marry her off. So what is the problem now? Fayyaz is perfect for her!

"It's not your responsibility to think that!"Huzaifa warned her again. But Ruby's patience was broken.

"Why don't you say clearly that you can't see her married to anyone else! Why are you making excuses like that!" Ruby said in a poisonous tone.

"Yes! I can't see her with anyone else! And I'll never let that happen! She's my wife, and she can't marry anyone else! "After almost shouting his confession, there was a shocked silence in the living room.

Ruby, who had led by her anger before, finally realized what a mistake she had made.

Because she was not the only one who was surprised at his confession. She could clearly see the surprise on his face too.

Blinded by her rage, she made him aware of his feelings, which he was either unaware of or which he did not yet understand.

But after two moments of shock, her mind gave her the idea to try again instead of giving up.

"Huzaifa "this time she gently called his name and moved towards him.

Huzaifa, who was still in a state of shock, looked at her in surprise, as if he had been unaware of her presence for a moment.

"It's not true... you don't love her, she's just your friend...."before she could say anything more, Huzaifa rushed out of the house.

Ruby could only watch his leaving back.

"No Huzaifa! I won't let you ruin my life..." She knew what to do now.
