Mafia's Dawn by Petillant Alba (red seas under red skies txt) 📕

She looked at him with tears in her eyes hearing the confession from his mouth. His guards who never saw their boss begging or giving any emotional statement to anyone now saying he loved his wife in front of everyone. The thing that shocked them was tears in their boss eyes. He was never that much devastated before. 

"Please, you are light to my dark life. If you won't be able to live by my side then this dreading darkness will consume me. It will ruin me" Abaan said as he grabbed slightly from her waist. He didn't care everyone was seeing him. He cared for the light of his life who was Fatima. 

Fatima looked at him. Her heart was screaming that he was saying the truth this time. Her brain also admitted that. But living with a person with such cruelness was difficult for such a pure soul like her. 

"I-I..." She was saying but cut off by her father.

"Forgive him." She was shocked hearing that from her father. As they both turned around to see him. Abaan looked at him with confusion but smiled a little as he moved forward.

"I am sorry. But I love my sister. I couldn't forgive you so easily. Now I want you to...." He never apologized to anyone before that's why he as hesitant. " Forgive me. I am sorry for what I have done to you " Abaan said looking everywhere but him as apologizing someone was for the first time in his life.

"And I also love my daughter..." Abaan looked at him when he said. " I hated you before because you hurt her but seeing you now I can say my daughter is safe with you. I forgive you because of my daughter only." He said and Abaan smiled while Fatima couldn't believe his father finally agreed. Sumaiya hugged Fatima with a happy heart as everyone was relieved seeing Abaan smiling. Abaan after hugging her father turned around to glance at Fatima as he was about to hug her but was stopped by her father. 

"You can't. She will go with me." Her father said grabbing Fatima's hand while everyone frowned at him including Abaan.

"You will come to take her in a traditional way. We won't arrange a marriage but only our relatives. Then you she will live with me." Her father said as Fatima chewed her lips to stop the smile seeing the frown on Abaan's face. Everyone was very much amused by his expressions.

"Fine." Abaan said after few seconds of silence. "But let her live with me tonight I will drop her tomorrow." Abaan asked with hope in his eyes.

" No, it's final." Her father said in a firm tone as Abaan glared at Fatima for smiling at him.

"Let me drop you sir." Hamza said winking at Abaan earning a glare from him but to no avail as Fatima waving at Abaan went with her father.

"So, let's prepare you before meeting your new relatives." Daniel and Charlie moved forward laughing.

"FUCK OFF!" Abaan said as he went inside to investigate more from Aima about Sufyan as he wanted to give his sister everything she wanted but Sufyan didn't love her so she must understand that first.

°°°

She was wearing a light pink dress with a little makeup. She didn't wore much jewelry as she didn't want to become a bride. She was wearing her jewelry when Sumaiya and Aima entered her room.

"Oh my God! You will give my brother a hard time today." Aima said. It was almost a month since she was out of coma and she was looking all healthy again. Her parents gave Abaan the time of two weeks because of some relatives but when that night Abaan barged inside Fatima's room to meet her then he was caught by her father and as a detention they delayed two more weeks. Abaan didn't barge in again as he didn't want them to delay more. She blushed hearing the remarks Aima gave to her. Every relative had come as they would be a small ceremony of giving gifts then Fatima would be rukhsat from her parents home.

"Bhabi! You are looking stunning." Daniel, Charlie and Hamza entered as Sumaiya glared at them.

"What are you doing in girl's room?" Aima asked as they all scoffed.

" We came to give our sweet Bhabi a message." Daniel said.

" From her groom ofcourse." Hamza said.

" And what is it?"Fatima asked with a smile.

" He said that if your parents delayed more or they will do anything else then he will abduct you from here and they won't be able to find you " Charlie said.

" And he have already decided the place where you guys would go to honeymoon." Hamza winked as she blushed. "I wanted to go with you too but it won't be healthy for my virgin eyes. So you guys can enjoy." Hamza added as she turned beetroot after few seconds understanding the hidden meaning. 

They after turning her beetroot exited the room to sit with Abaan who was occupied by some old aunties even one handed him his child to play with. Hamza, Charlie and Daniel had to go outside after every few minutes as they couldn't hold their laughter anymore. 

"Enjoying hm?" Charlie said earning a glare from him.

"F..." He was saying but sensing the presence of other he shut his mouth." Shut up. They can let you meet her but why not me?" Abaan said as his mood was all ruined.

"They trust us. That's why." Daniel said as Abaan scoffed at him but again his face turned into a scary one seeing an old woman approaching him to meet him. After ruining his hairstyle she went.

"Fatima has such a big family." Abaan mumbled. The started pulling his leg again but Fatima's arrival shut their mouth. She was looking epitome of modesty as Abaan made his mind to take off for their honeymoon tonight as he couldn't wait anymore. He frowned as he thought she would sit with him but she say in between some aunties before him. 

"Patience my brother patience." Hamza said in his ear as the ceremony started. Everyone enjoyed that as Fatima constantly felt his intense gaze on her but she had to ignore that in front of her relatives.

Soon the ceremony ended and the time of rukhsati came. Abaan was allowed to go outside while everyone hugged Fatima giving her wishes for a healthy life. She blushed when a woman wished to have a healthy baby.
