Married to Mr. Mafia by Nusrat Jahan (books for 10th graders TXT) 📗

In the afternoon , I knocked on Khalid's door twice .

He has been quite off lately .

When he wasn't Amira I rolled my eyes at inner voice .

Taking a deep breath , I turned the door knob since there wasn't any reply from the other side .

Just like I imagine drowning his head on some papers , his eyes search for something that I don't know .

" Khalid ?" I called out .

Silence .

Gritting my teeth at his ignorance I called out again .

" Khalid ?"

" Hmm… ? "

I let out a sigh and shook my head , but all of a sudden my attention caught his appearance. If falling in love would have been based on beauty, I would have fallen for him long back though he has some goodness in him but his personality and the way he treats me doesn't let me see it .

Sometimes nothing make sense to me , he was a man with power , just like he got me to marry him , he could have married many women he wanted , like Myra I mean I know my father owed him money but just by looking at this house anyone can easily guess he didn't have to marry me just for the sake of some money revenge .

" Amira " my breath hitched as his deep dark voice called me out of my thoughts . His deep intense gaze stuck in mine while his handsome face held confusion .
 

" I wanted to ask you something, " I said in one breath .

pressing my lips , my heart thud dreading his reaction .

" What ?" His eyebrows furrowed .

I debated in my mind , whether to say or not , knowing very well how short tempered he is …

" What Amira ?" He sound frustrated .

" CanIgoAbba'shouse ?" I said in jet speed.

He stood up making my eyes widen " look if you are doing this just to bother me then get lost " he shouted , I flinch .

My vision got blurry " I just wanted to ask your permission " I blink back the tears .

" What permission says it clearly " he took a step forward .

" I wanted to meet my family " tears slipped through my eyes .

Silence ….

He stared at my face with unknown emotion.

" C- can I " I dreaded that he won't let me .

His eyes softened " I have stopped you going to your parents house " his voice sounded like a melody in my eyes .

My eyes shone with happiness " really I can really go " I  clasp my hand feeling a huge weight lifted from my chest .

He nodded with a small smile .

" I am so -" before I could run to his arm , he turned .

" I have lots of work to do and go away " he went back to work .

" Mr. Grumpy Mirza " I hissed but I think I saw his side of lip twitch .

 

Never mind, I am going to meet my abbu , Samiya. I am so happy .

 

Beaming with happiness , I stood in front of my father's door .

But as soon as the gate opens my smile vanishes .
