My husband, Parvez, had a hard time fighting criminals. I had to help him. But the criminal was cleverer than I thought and managed to stab me in the stomach. 

I couldn't scream because I was in so much pain. 

I hadn't told my husband I was pregnant. I was so afraid of losing our child. 

I couldn't hold back the tears. 

After stabbing me, the criminal ran away. 

My husband, instead of hugging me, stood about six feet away from me. He called the hospital.

My eyes immediately closed and everything went dark. 

Somehow I ended up at home instead of the hospital. 

Wait. What happened to my body? 

I quickly came to the conclusion that I was dead.

My breath stopped when I found my husband making out with Lucia. 

"Parvez, don't you want to see your wife?" asked Lucia in a spoiled tone. 

Since when did my husband get back together with his old lover? 

Did he call Lucia at home when I was taken to the hospital?

Or had they been playing behind my back all along?

I was immediately filled with resentment. 

No wonder that every time I met Lucia, my husband was always kind to her. He used to tell me that Lucia was an annoying woman and that's why he didn't want to be with her, but now the opposite was happening.

When I talked about his friendliness towards Lucia, Parvez scolded me.

"What is the point of visiting him? She'll be home soon. Even though she hates you, you're still nice to her. You are the best."

Parvez gently hugged Lucia.

Suddenly Parvez's cell phone rang. 

I went over to answer it. 

It was from the hospital.

Parvez checked it and then, after turning it off, thru the phone on the sofa farther away.

"Neira must have regained consciousness. There's no way she can go home now, so I won't go there."

"I'm so glad you're alright, Parvez. If you had been hurt, I would have been very sad and depressed."

"It's Neira's fault because she insisted on going out to buy food at an hour when she should have been sleeping. She can't blame me because she just threw herself into the abyss".

It's because I had cravings.

"I will never forgive Neira.”

I couldn't stop thinking about them.

My husband was like that behind my back.

I couldn't help laughing.

Now I am dead. Parvez must be very happy. He can finally be with his girlfriend again.

Parvez's cell phone rang again. 

Annoyed, Parvez finally picked up his phone and turned it off, rejecting all incoming calls and messages. 

"Neira is very spoiled. She must be crying for you right now. You can leave me, Parvez," Lucia said in a sad tone. She started pretending to cry.”

Parvez immediately went back to Lucia and hugged her tightly. "No Lucia. I am here for you. I cannot tolerate Neira for the crimes she has committed against you. It's only natural that she was stabbed. For she is also very evil."

The assistant approached Parvez. "Sir, there is a call from the hospital."

The phone handed by the assistant rang.

Parvez picked up the phone and threw it on the floor where it broke. "Never show me a cell phone again!"

"But sir, what about Mrs. Neira?"

The assistant asked with a worried expression. 

"The hospital called because Neira regained consciousness!" Parvez snapped. 

"But..."

Praves shouted at the assistant again. The assistant picked up the phone that Parvez had thrown. 

I lost my baby. 

I was willing to sacrifice my life for my husband, but I didn't expect it to end like this. 

If Parvez had known I was pregnant, would he have yelled at me to stay away instead of asking me to help him fight the bad guys?

I turned around and tried to get out of that house.

At the hospital, I was in the morgue. 

It was true. I was dead.

I was terrified as I looked at my own body. 

"The patient's family cannot be contacted," one of the nurses said to the doctor. 

"Then call the family!" 

My family was eventually contacted by the hospital. 

They didn't believe I was dead. Instead, they said the hospital had the wrong person. 

But my sister, Yumna, contacted my husband to find out the truth.

"What?" 

Parvez shouted angrily. 

"What kind of hospital is this? There's no way Neira is dead. When I took her to the hospital, she was alive and well. Even though she was stabbed, it was only a small wound. You've been lied to.

Parvez told my sister to tell the hospital not to give false reports of my death.

My family became increasingly disbelieving at the news of my death. Only Yumna felt uneasy.

"Parvez, didn't you go out for dinner?" asked Lucia. 

"Yes, I did," Parvez replied.

Parvez left his cell phone behind.

Parvez calmed down when Lucia put her arm around him. 

The hospital continued to contact Parvez.

Finally, they sent a message telling Parvez that they would send my body to his home.

Parvez was still kissing Lucia.

Parvez offered Lucia the fancy jewelry she wanted.

Lucia was very happy.

I laughed again.

Parvez's career was going downhill. He wasn't supposed to have much money. The assistant at home was also on my payroll because he was broke. The money he used to buy Lucia's jewelry was mine. 

I decided to go back home to see if my body had arrived.

My body finally reached Parvez's house. I wanted to scream at the sight of it. 

The assistant rushed out of the house to check on the guests. 

When she saw my lifeless body, she screamed. 

"Are you the victim's family?" someone from the hospital asked. 

"I'm just her assistant. Her husband is away at the moment. I will contact him.”

Parvez could not be reached because he did not have his cell phone with him. 

The assistant finally contacted Lucia.

Parvez used to say that I was incompetent as a wife even though I did everything he wanted, served him wholeheartedly, gave him my full attention like washing his dishes, his clothes, and much more. 

Yet he never once defended me in front of his family.

"How come you're not pregnant yet?"

My mother-in-law was so frustrated that she threw things around our house until some of them were broken. One of them was my husband's. Instead of getting angry with his mother, my husband scolded me and blamed me. 

"It's because you are not pregnant yet. If you don't get pregnant, we'd better get divorced. My mother has already arranged my marriage with another woman.”

I cried hoarse at that point and told Parvez that he didn't want me anymore, that he had deliberately stayed away so that I wouldn't get pregnant and he could finally marry the woman his mother had introduced him to.

I never knew who she was.

I eventually got pregnant, but I didn't tell Parvez right away because I wanted to surprise him that night. 

Unexpectedly, we were attacked after returning from dinner. The villain wore a mask so I couldn't see his face. 

The villain hit Parvez so hard that Parvez lost his balance and fell to the ground. 

The bad guy immediately pulled out a knife and tried to stab Parvez, but Parvez yelled at me to save him. 

I searched for something until I found an iron rod nearby. 

I dared to attack the villain to save Parvez. 

The criminal immediately attacked me and managed to stab me.

I can't get over it. 

Was it because I didn't scream that Pravez thought I wasn't in enough pain that he thought I would wake up and be okay?

Lucia didn't answer the assistant's phone. 

"Who?" asked Parvez. 

"Her assistant."

Lucia showed Parvez her phone screen when the assistant called. 

"Turn it off! How dare she call you."

"No need to get angry, Pravez. Who knows if it's important."

But Lucia turned off the phone as Parvez had told her. 

After dinner, Lucia whined and asked to stay at the hotel. 

"Please, Parvez. I can't be alone."

"All right, Lucia. Just take it easy. I'll keep you company so you don't have to be afraid anymore. Tomorrow we will go to the psychologist for therapy."

"Thank you Parvez."

My family, who had been informed of my death by the assistant, tried again to contact Parvez through various means. 

Yumna finally saw my body and screamed hysterically. She burst into tears. 

"My sister, why... Why did you leave? You shouldn't have left!" 

I'm beyond help, Yumna. 

I want you to take all my wealth for your school fees and living expenses. I am not willing to let my money be spent by Parvez's old lover for her pleasure. 

"Why are you crying?"

My mother pulled Yumna, who was kneeling beside my body. 

"It can't be Neira."

My mother shook her head in disbelief. 

"Neira couldn't have died so quickly."

I thought my mother was trying to deny my death because she didn't want to accept the fact that I was dead. But she didn't seem to believe it was me at all.

"Mom, it's definitely Neira."

"No way! I don't know who it is, but I'm going to report it to the police and file a missing persons report."

The next day my husband came home alone. He had taken Lucia to a psychologist and then to his house.

Parvez was furious to find so many of my family gathered at his house.

"What's going on?" he asked.

Yumna was still crying over my death.

"Neira," my father replied softly. 

"She is still in the hospital," Parvez said. "You shouldn't be here! If you want to see her, go to the hospital! She has a lot of family, but why does she keep asking me to come?"

Parvez's attention turned to the coffin lying in his house. 

"What is this? A coffin?" asked Parvez after he stopped walking. "Damn, who put a coffin here?"

"Sir, Mrs. Neira is dead. Inside this coffin is Mrs. Neira. Since yesterday, the hospital has been looking for you because they wanted to inform you that Mrs. Neira is dead," the assistant said. 

"What do you mean? It's impossible that she died from a small stab wound."
