Aqib POV

I adjusted myself on couch, after taking a relaxing shower and changed myself into casual dress. She was sleeping peacefully while I was staring at her. I never saw her without hijab.

Her both delicate hands were under her cheeks. I could see the beautiful diamond ring in her wedding finger, which I gifted her last night.  Her long hair were scattered on the pillow and some strands were carelessly on her face. Indeed she was beautiful.

How can I stop feeling guilt which has stuck my body like a parasite since my Nikkah? I still didn't tell Abbiya about anything because I don't want to spoil her biggest day.

"You damn coward You Don't want to spoil her wedding, you're Ok with that but What will happen next? Have you think about that? Your revelation can spoil her whole life! Are you Ok with that?"

Ab ye zameer bhi lanatein deraha ha... lagta ha khuwar hi hota rahu ga sari umar. Pehle dil k hatho'n khuwar hua tha ab ye buzdilli le doobey gi. Sahi kehta ha Asad.

I was dipped in my thoughts when her eyes squinted and finally they were opened. She sat on the bed hurriedly looking worried.

" Kiya hua?" I asked her.

"Mein kafi time soti rahi hn Late hogya ha bohat" she replied and tied her hair with a clature, took her dupatta, placed on her shoulder and moved towards the cupboard.

" Abhi to 8 bajj rahein hn Abbiya aap late ni ho apko thori dair or sojana chahiye tha Aap kafi thaki hongi. " I replied.

" Oh! Shukar ha mein late nahi hn." She said while selecting the dress for herself. I laughed and she looked at me.

"Aapko itni subah subah kahin jana ha?" I asked her.

"Nahi..wo me ye nahi chahti k Aaj pehle din hi late soti rahu" she replied innocently and again digged in the cupboard and I laughed.

"Koi baat ni Abbiya Mom Dad ya mein koi bhi wo typical In laws nahi hn jo apke late uthne pe bura manayein ge. Balkey humein bura lage ga agr aap apni neend k sath compromise karein gi. Atleast mein to kbhi bhi ni karskta apni neend k sath compromise." I replied and smiled she mirrored too and nodded.

" Well Aap uth gyin hn to Coffee mangwau apke liye? Balkey me mangwa leta hn mene suna ha larkiya apni shadi wale din bhook hartal krti hn." I joked and she laughed. She was looking beautiful. Her eyes were sparkling and smiling along with her. I felt even more guilt when I saw her all smiling and laughing.

"Ab aisa bhi nahi ha" she replied and I smiled.

" Aap fresh hojayein me Shakira chachi ko coffee ka keh k ata hn. Sab soyein hue hn or abhi nashtey me b bohat time ha" I said and left.

Abbiya POV

I took a relaxing shower and changed myself into Magenta coloured chiffon frock with light embroidery on neck and sleeves a long with chooridaar. I saw my reflection in the mirror. This was a new Abbiya. I was on seventh sky today.

Mujhe Aaj Ehsas hua ha k Muhabbat ka jazba kitna taqat wala hota ha. Ye jazba lamho mein apki duniya badal deta ha , apko badal deta ha. Sahi kehte hn log Muhabbat wo jazba ha jo "Mein" ko "Sirf Tu" se badal deta ha... Muhabbat to humein apna bhi kab rehne deti ha?....

A knock on the door brought me back  to earth.

"Jee ajayein" I said and Aqib entered in the room holding a tray. I moved forward and tried to took that tray from his hands but he refused. There were two couch and table right beside the window.

"Aap baithein" He said and put the tray on the table and removed the curtains from the windows. The room was brightened with the sunlight. I could see the Lawn from the window. I missed my room. Our Lawn was also visible from my room window and I remembered How long I used to stand beside my room windows and observe different things in the lawn.

"Coffee thandi horae ha Abbiya" He broke the chain of my thoughts. He also put a piece of walnut cake in my plate. I took the cup and started looking outside. I could feel his gaze on me.

"Mene kahi suna tha k writers log har cheez like darakht, parindey, ghass, sarak, etc yani ird gird ki cheezo ko bht deeply observe krte like extraordinary tor pe observation skills hoti hn unke pas. " He said and I smiled.

" Waisey observation skills to sabkey pass hoti hn uske liye writer hona zaroori nahi ha." I replied.

"Well  Mein sabka nahi kehskti magar mein aisa krti hn. Kabhi consciously or Kabhi unconsciously. Waisey observe krna to bohat achi baat ha bohat razo'n se Pardey uthtey hn.  The world is a mystery Box and observation is the key." I replied with a genuine smile.

" Wow! Ye to apne bilkul thik kaha. Ye  zindagi apni hi uljhano me uljhayi rakhti ha k duniya pe gor krne ka moqa hi ni milta" He replied and sipped his coffee.

" Moqa to kisi ko bhi nahi milta apni zindagi se magar moqey khud talash krne prte hn" I replied and again glanced at the beautiful lawn.

"Aap to meri soch se bhi ziyada deep insan hn" he smiled and I passed one too.

" Apko kiya pasand ha khaney mein?" I asked him something for the very first time.

" All Pakistani food, specially Biryani and Qourma. Or iske ilawa Italian bhi kha leta hn,  Chinese bhi kha leta hn or Brazilian bhi. In short khaney peene k mamley me mein bohat ziyada choosy nahi hn. Bhook lagi ho to kuch bhi kha laita hn" He replied and laughed. And I laughed too. The sunlight was making prominent his beautiful facial features. My heart skipped a beat.

After 4 days.

Asad POV.

It was 12 o'clock noon and I woke up half hour ago but still I was on my bed... lazy.. I came back to my Nana Abbu's place three days ago, after Aqib's Walima.  I was not in the mood to leave my bed today. Agr Mama se dantt na pari to...lol

Aqib ki shadi ko khatam hue 3 din hogye hn or ye thakan abhi tk ni utri...

"Ye chuttiyan bhi bari zalim cheez hoti hn. Jab se Pakistan aya hn sari diet, gym ,walk or healthy lifestyle pe kha kha k pani phair diya ha. Sari Brazilian larkiyan jo Meri looks pe marti thi ab meri tondd daikh k bhag jayein gi" I imagined myself and laughed.

I was lying face down on my bed.

"Lol singleness ki inteha daikho Khudi joke mar k khudhi hans raha hn" I spoke to myself.

Khud kalaami k sarey record tootey ge aaj.

Suddenly A picture appeared on my mind's screen and smile crept on my lips and a memory took me back on Walima event.

On Walima Day. (Past)

I entered in the hall and she was standing with Arzu and a boy who was holding Rehman. She was looking breathtakingly beautiful. She was wearing a plum gown and her hair were nicely tied in a side bun and some strands were dangling on her face. Suddenly she looked at me and her eyes were wide open with anger and her small nose turned red.

Ab maza ayega.

I moved towards her and she turned her face.

"Asalam o Alaikum Kiran" I said and she ignored me.
"Asalam o Alaikum Arzu"
"Asalam o Alaikum sorry Aapka nam nahi pata mujhe Apne apna introduction nahi diya tha na isliye." I said to boy standing beside them. I indirectly teased her and could see her boiling.

" Wa'alaikum as Salam Asad bhai kaisey hn ap? Ye mera chota Bhai ha Ammar" Arzu replied and smiled. I shook hands with Ammar.

" Mein b thik hn" I replied and Rehman diverted my attention. I pulled his cheeks. Soon Ammar left with Rehman.

"Asad Bhai Aap kafi arsey badd ayen hn Pakistan Kaisa lagraha ha sab?" Arzu asked.

" Jee bohat acha lag raha ha bohat beauty ha Pakistan mein" I looked at her and she was completely red I could see her strong grip on the glass. Soon Arzu excused us and now we two were left.

"Apko koi kam nahi ha? " She said

"Nahi" I replied carelessly.

"Ok mujhe bohat hn" She was about to leave.

" Acha sunein" I said.

" Farmayein" she replied annoyingly.

" Is bichare glass ko kahi rakh dein kahi gusse me apke Hatho se qatal na hojaye is mazloom ka" I teased her. 

" Koi baat ni apka krdeti hn thik ha?" She passed me an evil smile.

" Sochlein" I smirked.

" Itna hi taras araha ha ispe to yelein" she held that glass in my hand and accidentally her hands touched mine and she instantly withdrew her hand, turned around and left. I couldn't see her facial expressions but my beats were out of control. I was halted at my place

**********

(Present)

I laughed I was in my own la la land then suddenly I heard a knock on the door and I know who will be there.

"Asad Bhai kb se khe khe kr rahe hn andar kiya Lateefo'n ki kitab mil gyi ha aapko?" She said from behind the door.

" Noori tumhe b chain nahi ha subah subah jasoosiyan krti raha kro hr kisi ki" I replied her. Noor is my Mamu's daughter. She is in MBBS first year and since I came to Pakistan, the responsibility of making Practical copies of her has been imposed on me by my legendary cousin Noori.

She strictly warned me not to tell to Mami or Mamu of this 'khufiya karistani' or else she will break my Branded watch (which Aqib gifted me on my birthday , my weakness) which is now in her custody which she will return me after her work will be finished.

Matlb ye tiddi ki lambi planning thi!!  mujhe dhamkiyan deti ha ..aik to pata ni kis jaga chupayi ha meri watch!!

I was at peace when I was at Aqib's place.

"Araha hn zaroor tumhari PRACTICAL COPIES banani hongi hena?" I asked and Finally opened the door.

" Nahi jee itni zalim bhi nahi hn ab Nashta krlein neeche sab wait krrae hn." Noori said while crossing her hands on her torso.

"Shukar ha" I breathed a sigh of relief.

" Han wo nashtey k bad PRACTICAL COPIES bnani hn" she replied and laugh.

Wasted!!!

" Noori ki bachi!!!!" I said and she ran.

I freshened my self. Today Aqib's parents were going back to Brazil and Suffiya Api and Asher Bhai already landed back to Canada two days ago. So I too was going with Aqib to drop aunty and Uncle to Airport.  Aqib and Bhabhi are staying here for one more week in Pakistan and We were  staying here for ten more days because We visited Pakistan after Ages and Mama Papa want to spend more time here.

Abbiya POV

After Dropping Khalu and Khala I and Aqib went back home. We both were staying here in Pakistan for one more week till my Visa came. I have alot of work which I can complete in this span of time. I have Dawats here, some shopping and Some Societies invited me on Adabi events regarding my books and newly published one, I too had to visit those.

Today Me and Aqib invited Arzu and Sohail bhai, Kiran and Asad Bhai for dinner outside. After offering Maghrib prayer I changed myself into Royal blue coloured kurti and trousers and grey Duppata along with grey hijab paired with grey colour sandal heels.

I applied light pink shade makeup along with Kajal and eyeliner. I looked at myself last time in the mirror and Suddenly I heard a knock on door.

"Ajayein" I said and Aqib entered in the room.

" Aap bs 10 minute wait krein mein change kr k ata hn" He said and smiled while picking a dress for himself.

"Ok me neeche living room mein wait krrae hn Aapka" I said and was about to leave but He called me.

" Jee" I said

" Aap achi lagraein hn." He said and smiled I mirrored too.

" Thank you" I replied and left the room.

I sat on couch and on the TV. Meanwhile My phone Rang and It was a group call from Arzu and Kiran.

"Asalam o Alaikum guys" I chirped.

"Wa'alaikum as Salam" They both said in unison.

" Tum log nikal gye Abbiya?" Arzu asked.

" Nahi bas nikalne waley hn Aqib ka wait krrae hn mein" I replied.

"Yar ye Asad araha ha na aaj uske khaney me mirchey mila dn gi" Kiran said annoyingly and we both burst into laugh. Arzu already gave all reports that what happened at my wedding.

" Yar kiya hogya ha Kiran Asad bhai ne tumhe kiya kehdiya ha yar. He is so nice and humble" I stated.

" Yar tumhe ni pata ye Asad bohat bara meesna ha" Kiran replied.

"Mohtarma ne Asad Bhai pe PHD krli ha isse bara pata ha" Arzu teased her and  I laughed.

" Acha yar bas krdo or pls Kiran koi garbar matt karna warna bohat pito gi tum mujhse" I warned her because I know her shaitani Dimag she must have started making plans as soon as she heard that Asad was also coming to dinner.

"Acha acha kuch ni karti" She replied.

"Han jitni seedhi ban rayi ho utni rehna bhi" Arzu said.

" Kiran ja k ready hojao ab" Arzu said.

" Kiran tum abhi tk ready nahi hui?" I asked amazingly.

" Han VIP late atey hn" she replied.

" Isliye tumhe call ki ha sath takey mere sath sath ye tumhara b dimagh kharab kre." Arzu said

" Kiran dafa hojao ja k tayar ho Aqib bas aney wale hn or hum nikal rahe hn" I said.

" Han hum b nikalne waley hn" Arzu said.

"Ok Ok jarae hn guys..or me late au gi.. bye" Kiran said and hung up the call and we both laughed.
