24. Forgiveness

"Forgive me," he uttered, his forehead still against hers.

Zahra was gobsmacked now. Daniyal's words lingered in her mind.

'Had he for once, just once said sorry to you for what he did?'

Now here he was, asking for forgiveness for what he did to her, and here she was backstabbing her. Remorse again painfully clutched her heart as her throat constricted with tears. Her heartfelt heavy as a sharp pain shooted in her throat indicating her tears were at bay.

"I'm sorry for what I did to you." He uttered again. He would've died but never have said a sorry if it was someone else than Zahra.

Her eyes begin to glisten with unshed tears as she looked at him and at last, a tear slipped down her eye.

Tear of pure remorse, her conscience was eating her.

One after another, they continued to slip down her face like a waterfall. She couldn't hold them anymore and out of instinct pressed his body against hers in a bone-crushing hug.
