MAREEZ-E-ISHQ CHAPTER 5

He finished taking a bath but her face was still hot. She could still feel his gaze but she couldn't do anything rather than to avoid it.

She handed him his cloths while looking over his shoulder. She can't meet his eyes and don't know why.

Hey...’ 

Geet was startled, suddenly feeling his hand on her shoulder.

‘Why can't you look at me?’ he asked.

‘I-I'm looking at you, right?’ she glanced at him but immediately looked away. She was counted! She doesn’t know why she feels this way.

She will never forget his question to her. What does he think of his buddy? Scary?!

‘Oh really? Or you're just imagining how it will look like when my c*ck is inside your a**? Maan said proudly.

Her ears warmed while her breath quickened. If only she could really hurt a patient!

Geet glared at him, ‘Shut your mouth, Mr. Maan, it's not funny anymore.’

Maan grinned, ‘Well, I don't care. I want to tease you.

‘Pervert.’ 

She mumbled with a frustrated pout on her face.

He grinned even more and she was surprised when he grabbed her suddenly, pulling her closer to him. She slammed into his broad chest.

‘How did you say that?’ His voice was hoarse. She struggled and tried to push him away. She looked up and glared at him because nothing happened in her struggle.

‘Let me go this instant, Mr. Maan.’ She resisted his hot gaze on her. She was even more annoyed when he just grinned and bowed slightly. She almost squinted at the small distance between their faces.

‘Feisty, huh? I like that.’ And he brought his face even closer. Her nose fared in annoyance at him. With full force, she pushed him away. He stumbled back a little and Geet sat down. 

‘Stupid.’

He chuckled seeing her antics. She looked at him and stood up. Shaken her skirt before standing in front of him.

‘You à**ho*e!” she was furious...but then immediately covered her mouth, after realizing that she said it out loud! Stupid, Geet!

His grin widened and he started to step closer to her. She backed away with wide eyes. Annoying! Why can't she do anything about this man?

She closed her eyes tightly as leaned against the hard and cold wall. She has nothing left to fall back on. She squinted her eyes and saw his blank reaction but the smirk is still on his lips!

‘As*h**e, huh?  His voice was so deep that she turned pale, as if knew what was coming next.

‘I'll report your disrespect to me.’ He turned his back on her.

She knew it...One of their rules inside this hospital was respecting their patients. No matter what they do to you, you should still respect them. How is it? She clenched her fist and rushed after him, grabbing his hand to stop him from walking.

‘I'm sorry, Mr. Maan.’ She bowed. She can't accept it still... He was at fault, why should she apologize?

He withdrew his hand from her grip so she was forced to look at him. His face was stoic and void of emotion; she almost shivered on his coldness aura.

‘Your sorry is not enough.’

Her jaw dropped as she couldn’t stop cursing him. She took a deep breath and looked him in the eye.

‘What do you want then?’

Mareez-E-Ishq Hoon
Main Kar De Dawa

Haath Rakh De Tu
Dil Pe Zara
Oo….Haath Rakh De
Tu Dil Pe Zara

He stared into her eyes fervently, like he was trying to read her mind. His piercing gaze made her restless...she preferred to look away, she hate that look. He was planning something again...she knew it...

‘I want my Sam.’

‘What do you mean?’ 

‘I want you to pretend to be my Sam.... for one day.”

Her jaw dropped, ‘Are you crazy?’

His face hardened and his eyes grew colder. She was surprised when he violently grabbed her by the arm and pulled her closer to him. She winced in pain.

‘You know the answer, stupid!’ No matter how hard he shows, she knew he was hurt by what she said. She didn't mean it, she was just shocked.

‘I'm sorry...’

‘I'm willing to do it, if that will make you happy and forgive me. But how?’

His face lighted up and he let go of her. ‘Just pretend that you love me that you care for me.’ His voice softened and he looked away from her.

‘I'm so pathetic.’ He washed his face with his palm. It's like he's troubled.

‘It's okay, I want to do it.’ She assure him for she couldn’t see him in trouble.

Maan stared at her and smiled bitterly. ‘You're just doing it because of pity. Am I that so pitiful?’

Geet sighed. She really don't know what to do with him. He was already hurting, he was putting himself down even more. Why is he drowning himself more and more instead of coming up?

Mr. Maan—

‘Maan... I want you to call me only Maan, Sam called me that way.’

Call me a pathetic but I want this.’ He added.

Geet looked at him little shock. In her 24 years of existence in the world, she has never had a relationship. Maybe, because of the hardships of life, she chose to help and work hard to reach where she was now. She was attracted, yes. She has a crush but that's about it. She couldn't attach herself to others because her family was her priority.

She still doesn’t know how it feels to be loved, except for her family. But while looking at him doing this because of so much love, it's like the pain of loving. It is better to be alone in life than a life where you are always hurt. She will be content with loving her family and loving herself, she doesn’t want to ruin everything she has just because of that love.

Maan...she called out softly.

Talab Hai Tu Tu Hai Nasha

Ghulam Hai Dil Ye Tera

Khulke Zara Jee Loon Tujhe

Aaja Meri Saanson Mein Aa

He smiled and closed his eyes tightly. ‘Yes, I missed that. I miss your voice. I miss you, sam.’

Geet was stunned by what he said, as if something clicked in her heart that she doesn’t know. She calmed herself down and erased the bitter feeling.

‘I miss you too, Maan...’

Why am I feeling this way? Why am I so nervous? She thought bitterly.

She was surprised when he hugged her, her heart beat faster and couldn't stop breathing. What's happening to her?

Chaha Tujhe Maine Wafaa Se

Maanga Tujhe Maine Duaa Se

Paaya Tujhe Teri Adaa Se….

‘I know you will come back to me Sam. I'm the one who you really love and not that sonofabitch, am I right?’ He broke away from the hug and looked at her. ‘S-Sam? Say it say that you love me.

I – I love you Maan.

Oh shit. Was she correct in agreeing to this agreement? She just wanted to see him happy but why doesn't her body agree every time he calls her sam? She slapped herself and shook her head. You're just pretending. Geet! Remember that!

‘Babe? Why are you hurting yourself?’ he asked seeing her antics.

Should call him babe too? She wondered innocently, ‘Don't mind me b-babe...’

Ugh! They look like fools here!

Maan smiled, ‘Are you hungry? I'm gonna feed you. Let's sit on bed.’

Before she could speak he pulled her. Instead of sitting on his bed, she was placed on his lap. Her ears got hot from what happened. It's so fu**ing awkward!

Mareez-E-Ishq Hoon
Main Kar De Dawa

Haath Rakh De Tu
Dil Pe Zara
Oo….Haath Rakh De
Tu Dil Pe Zara

‘Open your mouth let your Maan feed you.’

Geet frowned, B-But, Maan... it's not my food. It's for you... That food is only for patients.

‘No. You eat with me or I'll punish you, sam.’ He was stubborn. 

B-But...

No buts, open your mouth, babe.’ He showed her his big angry eyes and she had no choice but to follow him. She turned pale after having the first bite only, it had no taste but she knew it was mixed with medicine. Her stomach won't accept it.

She immediately stood up from his lap and ran straight to the bathroom. When she got to the lavatory she threw up the food. She washed her mouth and left the bathroom. She was stunned when she saw Mr. Maan bent over and looking at his food. His face was emotionless and seemed to be deep in thought.

After a while, she was startled when he threw the food he was holding and screamed loudly. He straightened himself and stood up. He approached the wall and hit his head again and again.

Geet immediately rushed to him and took his hand to pull him. He faced her, his head down and his hair a mess. The tears falling from his eyes did not escape her. She didn't want to hug him. Tears welled up in her eyes. Her heart was full of compassion and couldn't stop feeling too much pity for his condition.

She hugged him tightly and let him cry. He repeated calling sam name again and again and his voice was filled with resentment.

She moved away a little to see his face. She cupped his face and made him look at her. He closed his eyes and his face was full of tears. his nose was red from crying too much.

Mareez-e-Ishq hoon main, kar de dawa

Haath rakh de tu dil pe zara

O o... haath rakh de tu dil pe zara

She wiped his tears with her thumb. Stop crying, Maan. Everything will be alright. She said softly.

He opened his eyes and looked into her eyes. ‘Geet...can you kill me now? I'm tired, just wanna die...’

Her heart was squeezed by what he said. Why, Maan? Why are you doing this? Why are you torturing yourself?

She just shook her head, ‘No. Dying is not a solution to escape your problem. I'll help you to forget her.’

She wanted to show him that his life shouldn't just revolve around one woman. He shouldn't be driving people crazy who can't really see his love.

Karam Hadh Se Hai
Zyaada Mujhpe Tera….

Haath Rakh De Tu
Dil Pe Zara
Oo….Haath Rakh De
Tu Dil Pe Zara

Thank you so much for all awesome comments, friends...I know you guys have so much confusion and questions regarding the story...let the story move further...further updates will answer your questions hopefully..

MAREEZ-EISHQ CHAPTER 4

 

Chapter 4

Geet was hell scare still tried to talk to him nicely, ‘Calm down, Mr. Maan... you might hurt yourself.

But maan became angrier after hearing her words. ‘I don't f*king care! I'm gonna kill you!’ His face was red with anger, his wrist was already wounding on the rope.

Geet sighed and shook her head. She need to maintain her composure, she needs to stay calm. She must not show him that she was afraid. ‘Is it about last few days? I'm sorry, okay? I can explain... just calm down...’ she slowly approached him.

‘No! Explain? Then you will leave me again? F**k you!’ he shouted.

She winced at the loudness of his scream. What the hell is this guy, he sounded as if he swallowed a microphone.

She sat next to him and caressed his face. He stopped instantly and stared at her. There's that warm feeling again every time he stares into her eyes.

‘It's your breakfast time...’ She  said calmly, his forehead furrowed and his lips twitched as if he wanted to speak but nothing came out of his mouth.

‘I'll let you go but you need to promise that you'll calm down and you won't do anything violent reaction. Get it?’

He didn't answer, he didn't even nod. No reaction, blank. His eyes just kept staring at her.

Geet sighed, ‘I take that as a yes.’

She  reached for his tie and removed it. She can see the many scratches on both of his wrists because of his struggle to get off the rope earlier. She was annoyed. Why did they need to tie him up? Because he's too dangerous? And there is a possibility that he can harm himself? Then what's the use of nurses here?

‘Does it hurt, Mr. Maan?’ she asked him but couldn't get an answer. She just shook her head and held his two wrists to clean them.

He was silent and kept staring at her. That's more favorable to her than him getting lost. She stood up for a moment to get the food that was ready for him. She sat down again and met his gaze. He was sitting now.

She held his messy hair and straightened it, because his hair was already long and blocking his face. ‘I will feed you, after that you will take your meds then take a bath. Is that okay with you?’

‘Why asking for my opinion? As if I have a choice.’ He said sarcastically.

Instead of being annoyed, geet just smiled. She didn't know that Mr. Maan has this side. ‘Good that you know.’ She just said and started to feed him, he didn't complain and ate everything she gave him.

He was quiet; the only thing she could hear was the sound of the spoon every time it hit the food container and then his food.

‘I'm sorry...’ she broke the silence. He frowned but did not speak.

‘I'm sorry if I broke my promise...’ she could see his fist clenched.

‘I had a fever for 3 days; I couldn't stand because of the weight of my body. When I tried, it only got worse. I'm sorry, Mr. Maan.’

‘Liar...’ he muttered furiously.

She stopped feeding him and looked at his emotionless face.

‘You're just making excuses to fool me. I am an obsessed freak; everyone is scared of me so why should I believe you? I know that you're absent because you don't want me, because I am crazy and because you are scared of me.’ He smirked bitterly and looked away. She caught the shine in his eyes due to tears, but he's holding back his tears.

She put the food container on the side table and took his hand, he Inhaled and immediately pulled it away from her hand. She sighed and dared to hold his face to face her. She stared deeply at him.

‘If I'm scared why did I come back here? Hmmm?’

He averted his eyes from her but she lightly squeezed his face. ‘Look at me in my eyes and answer me, Mr. Maan. Who's scared now?’ she said sarcastically when he couldn't really look at her.

Maan frowned and looked at her sharply then violently removed her grip from his face. ‘I'm not scared!’ he growled.

‘I know you force yourself to come back here! You don't have a choice because the f*cking head doctor here assigned you to me and you can't do anything about it!’ He was breathing fast in anger. She smiled because he was letting out his emotions and that was beautiful.

‘Why the f*ck are you smiling?!’ He shouted so that her smile broke. His scream hurt her ears. He thought I was too far for him to have to shout. She shook her head and took both of his hands, holding it tightly so he couldn't take them away. 

“Mr. Maan, I'm not scared of you, put that in your mind. And about what you said, I wasn't really forced because I was just assigned here. Every nurse can ask for head doctor to change our shift, I didn’t right? If I'm scared of you, I shouldn't be talking to you right now. Heck, I can even touch you like this, because I'm not scared, I let you go because even though I know you have violent tendencies, I still trust you. You're not crazy, you're just blinded by too much love. You get it now?” she smiled at his stupid face. she saw his ear turn red before he pulled his hand away.

Liar...’ he again said.

Geet shrugged, ‘I'm saying the truth. But it's your choice if you will believe or not. Anyway...’ she stood up and took his medicine.

‘Time to have your meds!’

‘Whatever.’ He beamed even more so her smile grew. She made him take medicine and let him rest for a while.

She got something new for him to wear because he is about to take a bath. She went into the bathroom to prepare his bath. When she came out she saw him staring outside. One wall of this room is made of fiber glass so can see the outside.

He looked at her when walked towards him. The sadness in his eyes made her feel sorry for him.

Maan.

I love your name.’ She said with a soft smile.

‘I'll make a deal for you, Mr. Maan.’

‘I don't want it.’

This deal is connected to your Sam, but you don't want it, so don't. She stood up and turned around but before she could step herself he pulled her back. She gasped as she went straight into his lap.

‘What is it?’ He asked coldly, ignoring their position. She was so embarrassed that couldn’t answer. 

‘Geet...’

Her  hair stood on end when he brought his mouth to her ear. Even if she wanted to push him away, he held her tightly.

‘U-Uh... I will h-help you to see Sam but in exchange for you behaving and healing, D-Deal?’

‘Hmmm...’ He moaned in her ear making her stiffen even more in her seat.

‘Deal.’ She almost screamed when she felt him lick her earlobe.

‘What was that for?!’ she screamed when he released her. This man is crazy!

Maan shrugged, ‘You're ear looks delicious so I taste it.’

Her face got hot with embarrassment. Why he talks like that, what he did is normal for him?!

She was surprised when he stood up and stood in front of her. He looked at her and she was annoyed because of his height, she had to look up.

‘I'll take a bath now, sweetheart..’

She cringed at his last words. Sweetheart? What the heck! He passed her and went straight to the bathroom; she calmed herself down and followed him.

‘Mr. Maan, I...’ It was like cold water was poured on her when she saw him n*ked under the shower expect his under*ear covering his essential. He turned his back slightly to her so only she saw his back...

She slapped her face. What's wrong, Geet? It's like you don't bathe patients before...she was surprised when Mr. Maan turned around. He faced her, her ears twitched and she turned back as he was about to remove the last cloth from his body. Her heart was beating fast and chest heaving up and down at what she saw! She slapped herself again. What are you thinking about that, Geet! Wipe that off!

‘What are you doing here?’

She was startled when he spoke.

‘I just need to w-watch you...’

She heard him chuckle behind her, her heart beat faster.

‘I didn't know that you're also a per**rt nurse.’

Her eyes widened and she faced him. ‘What per**rt nurse?! I-I just have to do that because that's what the head nurse ordered!’

‘Oh really? But why is your face so red? Is my c**k intimidating you, Geet?’

Her jaw dropped at what he said.

What the hell?
