In the morning, Aman woke up. His rarely slept last night. He was sleepy yet he decided to give a check on Roshni as he yelled her yesterday. Guilt of yelling at her was taking over his mind.

He freshed himself and went directly to his room but he found none. Before getting out, he saw the same bracelet that Roshni found yesterday.

Aman: Isko maine..aise hi chhodh diya kya!

He hurrily hid that in the shelf. He then went out to find Roshni. He checked everywhere, then was about to knock Alia's room but it was a bit open. He saw that Alia was caressing Roshni's head and she was sleeping on her lap. Alia sensed Aman's presence so she looked at him and smiled weakly. Alia the slowly put her head down and dragged Aman outside.

Aman: Bhabi, is she alright? Kal thoda maine uspe chilla diya tha..

Alia: Aman.. Tum suno meri baat.. Roshni wahi feel karrahi hai jo main feel karti thi..jab ..jab tumhara bhai dusri ladkio ke sath.. I know tum waise nahi ho but that particular inciedent made her insecure. Mujhe pata hai tumhe uski khoobsoorti se koi farak nahi parhta but use parhta hai. Wo strong bann rahi hai par insecure hai tumhe leke. Use lagraha hai tum use chhorke kisi aur ke paas chale jaoge jo mujhe tab feel hota tha aur feeling bohot gandi hoti hai Aman, andar se kut kut ke kha jaati hai..

Aman: Bhabi main aisa nahi karunga..

Alia: I know, Aman. Tummein aur tumhare bhai mein bohot farak hai. Par yeh Roshni ko samjhana mere bas ki baat nahi hai, tumhe use space dena hoga. Pata hai, wo subha ayi, bohot ro rahi thi aur bas ek hi baat bolrahi thi ki- 'doctor mujjhe chhodh denge, akhir kabtak sympathy denge'.

Aman: Sympathy nahi hai yaar bhabi, main toh usse genuinely pyaa-

Alia: Tumhe pata hai sympathy nahi hai toh apna pyaar jatao. Use samjhao tum pyaar karte ho usse. Ab wo bhagwaan toh nahi jo khud se samjh legi. You need to express your feelings..

Aman: Like she did yesterday..

Alia: Mujhe usne nahi bataya tum dono ke beech kya hua aur mujhe mia biwi ki secret janni bhi nahi hai.. Par sort it out,Aman. Uske saath jo hua uske wavajud abhi tak itni strong tiki hai wo sirf tumhare wajah se aur age ka safar bhi tumhe uske liye asaaan banani hogi..

Aman: Thank you, bhabi..

Alia: Chote bhai jaise ho mere tum. Samhal lo bas apni mehbuba ko, jao uske paas jao. Main tumhare bhanje ko dekh ke ati hun..

Aman nodded. Alia left. Aman sat beside Roshni. He feathered a kiss on Roshni's forhead. She immediately opened her eyes and sat down.

Aman: I am..sorry maine apko jaga diya..

Roshni: Nahi, nahi ..its okay! And I am sorry for being.. desperate.. I should have done what i was told to do..

Aman:Aisa nahi..

Roshni:Main..fresh hone jarahi hun..

She hurrily left. Aman felt guilty.

After a while, he found her in the kitchen making breakfast. He went there and hugged Roshni from behind.

Aman: I love you..

Roshni closed her eyes and tears rolled down by her cheeks. Aman made her feel both unwanted and loved. She was in a dilemma to decide what she should do. Keeping her chores, she turned back to Aman's side and hugged him by holding his neck. Aman could feel her warm teras on his neck but he didnt mind those. She had to blurt all the things out- thats what he wanted.

Aman: I am sorry, jaan.. Mujhe kal apko desperate bolna nahi chahiye tha.. ap nahi ho wo..

Roshni clutched him more tightly.

Roshni:Main bohot selfish hun na? I am good for nothing. Mujhe pata nahi kya hogaya tha maine itna haaq adaa karlia.. I should have kept quiet. Mujhe jo milraha utne mein hi khush..

Aman: Ssshhh (breaking the hug)

She was looking down nervously.

Aman: Hey! I love you, alright? Tum kuch bhi mang sakti ho , its just that mujhe khudpe bharosa nahi tha ki main apko protect..par nahi, ap meri hai and main apka hun. Jo kuch bhi hua usme meri Roshni ki koi galti hai. And she deserves the best! (Lifting her chin up)

Yes, this is what she needed. An assurance of him being only hers, him being not letting her go. Not everyone is this lucky.

She smiled- this is the smile for which Aman can die for. Aman never let someone to be his weakness but Rishni became his weakest point as well his strength. Her one smile take away his all tiredness. She was a medicine to him and till his last breathe- he wanted to be with her only.

They hugged.

At night, Roshni was folding the cloths. Aman barged into her room and kissed her. She was shocked.

Aman: I love you, Senorita!

Roshni:I love you too, doctor.

Aman: Ab chalo, kal jo kaam chhora tha wo khatam karlete hai..main kosh..ish ka..runga..

He went to her close but she stopped him.

Roshni: Nahi. Nikaah ke baad sabkuch! Haram hota hai yesab nikaah se pehle..

Aman: Par kal toh koi kuch aur mang raha tha..

Roshni: I ..am sorry, doctor. I shouldnt have..

Aman: Tumhe jo chahiye main dene..ki..kos..shish..

Roshni: Ap chahiye bas. Aur kuch nahi, baaki sab nikaah ke baad!

Aman hugged her.

The engagementwent well and it was the nikkah day.

Qazi: Aman Junaid Khan, ap ka Nikkah Roshni Ahmed ke saath haq meher 10 lac ruppe sikha rajul waqt kiya jata hai. Kya aap ko yeh nikkah qubool hai?

Aman: Qubool hai. Qubool hai. Qubool hai.

Qazi: Roshni Ahmed, ap ka Nikkah Aman Junaid Khan ke saath haq meher 10 lac ruppe sikha rajul waqt kiya jata hai. Kya aap ko yeh nikkah qubool hai?

Roshni: Wait a second, mujhe yeh nikaah nahi karna!

All were shocked. Aman asided his sehra and went near her.

Aman:Kya hua Roshni?

Roshni: Arey idhar sehre mein toh ap ho-

Aman: Toh aur koun hoga!

Roshni: Arey doctor, yeh Qazi sahab mera nikaah kisi Aman Junaid Khanbaba se kara rahe hai..

Aman: Arey toh main- wait- what did you mean?

Roshni: I mean ki mujhe kisi Aman Junaid Khanbaba se nikkah nahi karna ,main toh apse pyaar karti hun na? 🥺

Aman: Yaar-

Everyone started laughing. Aman patted his head twice. Roshni looked around shocked.

Roshni: Kya hua sab has kyun rahe hai?

Aman: Mera naam kya hai?

Roshni: Doctor 😐

Aman: Yar mujhe koi samhalo, nikaah se pehle heart attack karke marr na jaun-

Roshni: No no please phir sab mujhe sab Aman Junaid Khanbaba se nikaah kara denge. I love you, please doctor.

Aman: Ammmi 😭😭😭

Parveen laughed.

Chotu: Chachu toh taman hai..

Roshni: Matlab?

Aman held Roshni's hands.

Aman: Apka nikaah Aman Junaid Khanbaba se hi matlab Khan uff..Mera naam Aman hai yar!

Roshni: Ohh🤔 Interesting 🤔 Sorry wha-t? 😐

Aman: Aman Junaid Khan 😒

Roshni: Ohhhhhhhh

Aman: Ji hooo

Roshni: Yar kal raat na main bohot tensed thi ki shadi ke baad mera surname doctor hoga toh kaisa ajeeb dikhwga..

Aman: Yahan mera nikaah ruka hua hai aur apko apni surname ki parhi hai? Ammi 😭😭😭

Ps- Dadi went somewhere.

Parveen: Chup nalayak. Itna baada hochuka hai aur ammi ammi karke rota hai-

Roshni giggled. Aman glared her. She stopped.

Junaid: Chalo bohot hua, ab nikaah complete karlo.

And the nikaah was completed then happily.

It was the suhaagraat time obv. Aman was very nervous. They both were married now but Aman was scared of the concept of suhaagraat. He just entered in the room and became shocked seeing Roshni's condition.

Aman: Ro..sh..ni..(his voice was shaking)

To be continued-

What happened to Roshni? Any guesses?
