Mistress novel Chapter 50

Sehreyar's p.o.v

The moment Sajal pulled the trigger I thought that today is the last day of mine in this world. I was ready to take the bullet. But, I was a little bit relaxed thinking that Meher is fine. I thought that Sajal is here to harm Meher.

But, before the bullet could pierce through my heart, a person came in front of me suddenly. Everything happened so quickly that I became bewildered for some time.

The person was shot by Sajal and the person fell on the road. I yelled loudly at the top of my lungs," Dadi................."

Yes, the person is none other than my grandma. I thought she has left the city. I don't know from where she came and saved me.

" Dadi, why you did this? I asked her lifting up her head a little. I can see the blood running from her chest. I saw her teary eyes but satisfied face. I looked at Sajal and found her already dead.

Tears started flowing from my eyes. I know my grandma isn't a Saint. But, I can't just see her like that. She is the one who took care of me and Haniya while our parents left this world. She is the reason that I am now a successful person.

"S.....A....H....U....I.....am......not......a.....selfish......per....son....," She said with great difficulty and coughed blood.

I replied crying," Please, Dadi...Don't talk like that. I am sorry."

"I.....have.....always.....wanted......to...see.....your.....happiness...," She said while her breath is hitching and her eyes are almost shutting down.

I patted her head and said with my shaky voice," Just hang on, Dadi. I will not let anything happen to you. Please.........."

" I have called the ambulance already," I heard Meher's worried voice and she held my dadi's another hand.

I am still crying and praying for my grandma when Meher assured my Dadi saying," Mrs Seikh, please don't lose your consciousness. Everything will be fine. You will be fine."

" My...... time..... has.......come......" Dadi said coughing more blood and I just lost it.

I yelled at her crying like a small kid," Dadi.....please...don't talk like that. You are not going anywhere."

" Mrs Seikh, you will be fine. The ambulance will arrive. Please, be patient," Meher said consoling Dadi who is taking long breaths.

Right now, I am feeling the same pain that I felt while my parents left this world. I am feeling already empty. The only guardian I have is leaving this world, this thought is making me helpless.

"Sahu.....i...have....always......wanted....the....right...for....you.....don't....hate...me," Dadi said with great difficulty and I am now feeling guilty for misbehaving with her. I shouldn't have talked with her like that.

I said holding her bloodied hand tightly," I don't hate you. I can never hate you. I was just angry. Your Sahu can never get angry at you."

She didn't say anything to me. She looked at Meher who is already crying and looking at Dadi with pitiful eyes. It's clear that she is worried for Dadi. I also found guiltiness in her eyes.

"Meher, I am sorry.......ple.....ase.....take......care.....of....my.....Sa.........." Dadi couldn't complete her sentence when her hand fell from my hand. I saw her closing her eyes forever.

The moment her hand fell from my hand, I felt like the world around me has stopped. I became frozen in my place. I heard Meher is saying something but my mind became so blank that I am not hearing what's she saying. It didn't take much time for me to understand that my grandma has already left.

My grandma left me. The only Guardian I have has left me. I again become an orphan. First, my parents left me and now my grandma. Why Allah is snatching everyone for me? Just why?

" Dadi! Just why you saved me!!! I yelled loudly and hugged her body tightly. It's the third time I am crying like that. I cried like a crazy person for the first time while my parents died. The second was when I heard that Meher is no more. And the third one is now.

" Don't leave your Sahu. I beg you. Please, Dadi. Open your eyes," I said hugging her body tightly. I still can feel her blood on my chest.

I heard Meher's crying voice saying," Sehreyar, control yourself."

I replied with my teary eyes looking at Meher," She left me.....My only guardian left me alone."

Meher rested her one hand on my shoulder and tried to console me. But, nothing can soothe the pain which I am feeling now. I have just lost one of my precious persons.
