Beautiful Nightmare - Chapter 2, Part 2

Riya's dad said, "Really, are you saying this after watching all the evidence? How can you trust her and why? Just go to your home and live your happy life Abir. You don't belong in this family issues. And if you trust her so much take her with you."

Abir said, "I will from now on just watch me."
He called his advocate and told him to take marriage papers.

Her dad said, "But you know what she has done and still you want that girl as your wife. She couldn't become a good daughter, a fiancée she cheated all of us and still?"

Abir looked and said, "Yes still, because I trust her, she can't do it."

All people were shocked at him. He said, "To prove my point I am going to marry her, and that will happen. Now she is innocent."

Marriage papers arrived and he signed it, he told Riya to sign, but she was not moving at all. He said to her, "Common prove yourself right, that you can be a wife of someone and sign the papers," she looked at him with horror and mix of shock.

He was the one who was standing for her, when the whole world was against her, he was proposing a marriage, who runs away from every relation. Abir who hates her and she hates him from the day she met him, is willing to take her hand to marry her.

Is this possible? And why is this happening now?

But she looked in Abir's eyes for once and he nodded at her.

He said, "Common prove all of them wrong by marrying me, and be the part of my life."

He bent near her and took her in his hands and hugged her. He whispered in her ears, "Riya do it for your Mom, for Lina."

She looked at her mom, she saw hope in Lina's eyes and Lina nodded for once.

Without another thought she signed the papers. And advocate said, "You are now husband and wife."

Her father came with her luggage and said to Riya, "Listen you, take all of these belongings and get out of this house from now and never show me your face. You are dead from now on for us."

Abir said, "Watch out for your words old man. You are talking about my wife here, and I will not bear her insult at all. And keep all her luggage here she doesn't want any part of this family who can't have faith in own daughter."

With this he took Riya's hand and left the house with her.

The crowd was stunned. Mr. Verma was stunned and Jack was still in shock? Riya's mom was somewhat happy, that her daughter was married to the person who is capable of taking the responsibility of her even if the whole world is against her.

Abir made her sit in the car and drove to his home, throwing glances at her during the drive.

Abir thought, what happened in last hour? What was it? He, the Casanova is married to the person whom he hates with every breath of his life. And answer was 'yes'.

But what is the reason of it? Still it is the mystery, he didn't knew what came to him at that time, he couldn't stand the people blaming Riya.

He again thought no it's rubbish, what is Riya to him? Nothing.

He wanted the revenge from her for all the insults, all the quarrels between them. She has slapped him at their college days, and for that incident he is still paying a big prize.

Because Abir is one of the millionaires and he is most eligible bachelors of the city, but because of Riya he is also famous for the slap, which Riya gave him after their first kiss.

Whenever any article is printed in the magazine or any newspaper, the slap incident is always there. And Abir knew that, this information was given by Riya to the Press, so he wanted the revenge for the lifetime from her.

And if Riya had married Jack today, it wouldn't be possible for him.

He thought, now it makes sense to him, he was not among those emotional fools, who can't see Riya cry, he just wanted to take revenge from her.

He looked at her and said, "Look Cruella, I want to clear something between us from now on. First of all we are married in the eyes of the whole world, but I assure you one thing that you will regret the decision of saying yes to me. I promise you to make your life hell like from now on. Now it's my turn to take revenge, because Payback is Bitch my dear wife."

What did she hear? That she will regret it?
But what?

She just looked at him, but didn't say anything with agony in her eyes, "You know what, you can't make my life living hell."

He said, "Why? How can you say that?"

She said, "Because already it is living hell. And do whatever you want to do because from now on I can't even feel the pain. There isn't anything in me that can be hurt, my sensory nerve endings are numb."

"Congratulations Abir for marrying the living dead person, because I am already dead."

Abir looked at her with shock in his eyes. This is not the normal response, she should be crying, but she hasn't cried at all? He thought, indeed she is living dead.

What was he supposed to do now? He thought, how would he take the revenge?

He drove to home and lead her in his house. Riya walked beside him, he thought she is like the immortal, what has happened to her? She is walking without even watching, and she was about to hit her head when Abir came and took her hand lead her to his hall.
He called his servants and said them all, "Meet my wife, from now on you will have to follow the rules of her, she is new here. Make sure she gets everything she wants. Now make the dinner with the feist.

He took her hand went to show his house. But Riya was not looking at the house at all. He took her to their bedroom and showed it to her.

He said, "Since you are my wife now, you will share this bed with me." Abir thought that if Riya Rebels him now and refuses him to do it, than he will force her, so he can show that he is really going to make her life like hell.

But there was no response from Riya at all. She was standing as if Abir hasn't said anything. Abir was now angry with her, how dare she, not giving any answer to his responses. But didn't say anything.

Abir went to the bathroom for freshen up and let Riya where she was, standing in his room looking at her legs.

When Abir returned he saw Riya sitting on he floor with knees surrounded by her hands, don't know why but this condition of Riya ached him. It was like 100 needles were pinned to his heart. He went near her, sat beside her.

He tried to rich at her but stopped it, desire of taking her in his arms was winning over his rivalry side.

He has never seen Riya like this before. He has seen her bashing at him, fighting with him, giving rude answers to him but not like this.

He thought, it's not my problem. I don't care, whatever she feels, she is dead or not, her heart is broken or not, his only job is to make sure that how to make Riya's life more miserable. So he said, "Go make sure that dinner is ready or not, this is your responsibility, now to check that it is well prepared or not."

"Don't think that you are the owner of this house, you are my slave here, and it's your job to make me please. Now go and prepare the pasta for me, I want to see if you can make it or not."

Riya looked at him and nodded. For once he looked at Riya and he was terrified by watching the lifelessness of her. She stood up and left the room.

Abir was thinking about this whole new Riya. If she was old, she would have given one of the finest insult of the world to him for calling her his slave. But he heard nothing.

Riya first decided to change her wedding dress. So she returned to her room and went to the bathroom and started taking shower, without removing her clothes, once she looked at the mirror in the bathroom, she saw her face. And she started screaming and breaking the things. She broke the mirror and looked her reflection in the broken pieces of the mirror. Like that broken reflection of her face, life and heart of her were shattered in the pieces.

Abir heard her screaming and sounds of her sobs for about 25 minutes. He decided to go after her, because he can't bear it, so he went near bathroom, luckily the door was open he saw Riya screaming with blood in her hands and she was holding the piece of broken glass.

He ran to her and took her in his arms, he tried to tame her but she was not listening at all. He, by force removed the glass pieces from her hands, and tried to calm her.

He hurriedly took her in his arms and lead her to his bed, he ran for first-aid box and took out some towels for drying her. She was injured but no change of face expression, she was not even crying.

He dried her hair and face, he bandaged her injured hands. He told her to change her wet clothes and gave his ex girlfriend's clothes. She was not listening, he with anger in his voice said to change it or else he will do it for her.

She silently obeyed the orders when Abir gave her some privacy to change the clothes. After changing her clothes she sat on the bed.

Abir entered the room and sat on his bed beside her. He asked, "Riya what was that for? Why did you hurt yourself?"

Riya didn't give any answers to him. He with anger looked at her and asked AGAIN, "I am asking you Riya, what was that. Don't you think what will happen to your mom, when she hears this? Can't you live for her without injuring yourself?"

Riya looked at his pained expression and for the first time in day, she cried like she had never before with holding him, hugging him by feeling his presence beside her. By dreaming the fantasy of having this enemy for the support who may be cares for her.

HE without holding back, soothed her, by caressing her hair, wiping her tears with his hands every now and often let her cry. Don't know why but it was very hard for him to hate her in those moments, when she was vulnerable.

He thought to let her cry, maybe that will ease her pain. Maybe she will come back after it.

And she after crying a lot, and holding his shirt with her arms slept in his arms. Without eating anything. Abir also let the sleep overcome on him, for the first time so early in his life.

Because he is insomniac, but maybe the exhaustion of day drifted him to the sleep. He let Riya sleep properly and covered her with the blanket. Riya stirred little bit, but when he laid beside her she returned to his arms again and hold his arms, like small child fear of the world holding the hand of the parents.

He didn't remove it and looked at her for long time, and thought, who could have thought that, this innocent girl has cheated on him? That bastard really doesn't deserve her. Till his eyes were heavy and he slept sound fully.

At the morning Riya woke up and saw Abir sleeping beside her, he was very close to her face and sleeping very peacefully. She saw that they were entwined in each others arms, she by slowly removing his hands,woke up from the bed. Her hands were bandaged and she remembered about Abir taking care of her at night, and she thought maybe something in her life was worth living for.

And she has to prove all the people wrong by becoming a good wife.
At least this she can do for Abir, who says that he will make her life like hell. But she owes him that, she will take care of him for the rest of her life. He took her hand when everybody left her.
Even if he hates her, she will let him hate her for the rest of the life.

But above all of this she will never love again anybody in her life. She will not give the piece of her heart to anybody, because she is not capable of loving someone.

With that she went to brush and take the shower, but after taking the shower she realized that she has nothing to wear, so she wrapped herself in Abir's bath rob, which was oversized of course, and came out of bathroom.

When she saw that Abir was up, she hurriedly went for the closet and decided to wear something immediately. She took out one dress and saw that it was black lingerie, but decided to throw it in the closet where it was before.

And I heard Abir laughing at me. He said, "You look like you have seen the ghost not the lingerie. Never seen it before?"

I shook closed my eyes and shook my head to save myself from this embarrassing moment.

He laughed and came near to me. He said, "So You should wear it now, I think I will love to see your tortured expression by looking you in this dress."

She looked at him with shock on face and said pleading, "Please don't do this to me, I will do anything but don't make me wear it please?"

He said, "How about no?"

She said, "No please I will do anything you say but not this please?"

He said, "Ok how about good morning kiss? It's ok, you see nobody will see us doing it."

She said, "No I won't do that also, why are you doing this to me?"

He looked at her with amusement in his eyes and said, "Why not, you know that you are my wife now and it's your responsibility to fulfill each and every need of mine, including my physical demands."

She again shook her head and said no.

Abir with authority in his face gave order to Riya to come near him. She had no other choice so she went near him. He saw that she didn't want to do that, so he wanted more because he loves to harass her.

She came near him and quickly gave kiss on his chick. And looked at him.

He said, "Don't you know how to do kiss? What was that, I am not 2 year old."

She looked at him, "You asked one kiss and I gave you, you didn't tell me about the lip kiss."

He looked at her face, "Thanx for giving me tip for the next time."

He tried to leave the room when she asked, "What will I wear now, I have nothing to wear Abir. Can you make the arrangement of some clothes for me?"

He with smirk on his face said, "How about no again? Wear that lingerie for the rest of the day and I will think it about it later."

She looked at him and said, "This is not fair Abir, get me some clothes. How am I supposed to wear this in the house, there are servants out there."

He thought that may be that Riya whom she hates the most is coming back, she at least opposing him now.

But he can't let this chance to go to torture her, so he said, "That's your problem not mine." With that he left the bedroom and went in the bathroom to brush, but when he returned Riya was standing there with tea in her hands. Still in same condition.

He dried his face and went to take tea, he looked at her face, she gave him one sandwich to eat. Maybe that's it, she is acting along now with him he thought.

He didn't ask her why didn't she wear that piece of cloth because he has expected that she won't wear it. While eating Abir looked at Riya 's face, and he saw some odd type of satisfaction on her face, as if she had finished her responsibility.

And he felt odd, like he liked it. But he knew that she didn't touch the food at last night, so after taking one bite he with anger said "Yuck, who made this?"

She said with confusion on her face, "Me why? Is anything wrong with it?"

He said, "First taste it and than say, and how would I know if it is not poisoned?"

She took it in her hands and tasted it, it was fine, nothing was wrong with it.

She gave him return and said, "Now don't play and finish it, and I tasted so it is not poisoned also, satisfied?"

He said, "In one bite no one gets any harm so rove it by finishing half of it. Now."

She said, "No I don't want to eat it. Please don't be childish and finish it."

He said, "I knew it, that something is wrong with that sandwich and now you proved it."

She took half of the sandwich in her mouth and finished it in three bites, and realized that she was hungry indeed.

She said, "Happy now, please finish the breakfast and go to office after it."
He looked at her eating fastly and with satisfaction both of them finished their breakfast.

He went to take bath and after it he found out that there isn't any bathrobe in the bathroom, but he remembered that she was wearing his bathrobe and with anger he yelled from the bathroom, "Riya give me my bathrobe now."

Riya came near to the door and said, "No I have nothing else to wear. So I won't give you."

Abir with frustration in his voice asked, "How am I supposed to come out from the bathroom without it Cruella?"

She said, "In your language it is your problem not mine, and beside I have every right on anything which is yours."

And she stood there hearing him muttering under his breath, something like, "Stupid filthy blood sucker."

He said, "I am coming outside like this if you don't give me that, so will you do the extraordinary task of giving it to me?"

She said, "How about no?"

He said, "Then enjoy seeing me without clothes." And with that he opened the door of bathroom, Riya turned herself from seeing him.

She heard footsteps of him coming near to her, he came near her face and said, "You will pay for this my wife, but first of all let me go for shopping or you will turn my closet into yours."

And he added, "And I am not naked so you can open your eyes now, beside I am your husband remember so it will be good for you to get used to my looks."
Now give me my bathrobe or else I will end it by wrapping both of us in it."

She opened her eyes and looked at him. Abir had towel around him, she breathed sigh of relief. She gave him another bathrobe.

It was disturbing watching him in the towel, she had never seen any man like this. Too much tension between them.

He went near his closet and was deciding what to wear. Riya was watching him deciding it, he was confused about it. So Riya went to his closet and pushed him aside. She mentioned him to stay quiet, and gave him black suit, navy blue shit and gray tie.

He looked at her with smile because without confusion he was ready to wear it.

Same happened with the hair gel. He was confused again, Riya shook her head and gave him the set wet gel.

Again he was confused with the wrist watches. Riya gave him Rado watch and it was finished.

Because Abir generally takes hour to be ready for the office, now he was finished in only 15 minutes?

She asked him, "Abir, I really need clothes. Please arrange it for me only two pairs will be enough. I won't demand anything after it. So please finish my one and only need, after I find my job. I will pay for it to you, so please."

Abir asked, "And why do you think that I will do it?"

She said. "Because I am your wife remember?"

He said, "Oh yes, yes, so if you are my wife then you're one and only job is to take care of me. Give me what I want and remember you will not die by job okay. What will people think of me? And now I can see, just like good wife come near me?"

She came near to him. He said, "And now give your office going husband a goodbye kiss. Sorry goodbye lip kiss and hug."

She looked at him and she knew that no matter how much rubbish it sounded he was right.

So she knew that her misery starts from now on. She looked at him with tears in his eyes and bent to kiss him.

But when she opened her eyes and found no one in front of her, she breathed a sigh of relief.

But Riya heard Abir saying, "Cruella later at night with more details, bye meet you at lunch."
