The loud voice of meerab echoed in khan haveli as she runs behind her over enthusiastic and mischievous child arish while her daughter laughed as her nanu played cricket with her and her brother armaan.

" Arish I said stop ., yeh doodh ka glass finish nhi hoga jabtak tum khelne nhi jaoge ..." she said in a strict voice but whom she is kidding her child giggled and runs where her sister and brother are playing with their mamu.

Meerab sighed as maa begum asked her to sit beside her as she feels happy seeing her grandchildren enjoying their vacation as the full haveli fill with laughter joy and mischief

" meerab baith jao , pee lega baacha hai abhi kyu bhaagti ho roj jab Pata aise hi tang karta hai...'she said in a playful tone

" maa begum ye aapne aur murtasim ne milke bigad rakha isko Varma mere maan aur mishi ko dekhiye kaise ache baache hai Pata nhi ye arish kaise mera beta hogaya ..." she huffed in Annoyance as she sees how her children laughter filled the backyard of the haveli and she smiled seeing them.

Maa begum laughed on her daughter in law thoughts " phir to Tum apna aur murtasim ka time bhool gyi jab tum sab chuttiyo mai milte the main aur anila thak jaate tumhare peeche apne shauhar ke karname yaad hai bachpan mai Kitna shararti mera arish ussipe gaya hai..." she said laughingly while meerab gets embarrassed remembering their childhood she and murtasim literally took haveli on their head when they play together she stood up from there before her mother in law gets her embarrassed more and goes to them where they are playing

" bare baba aap baith jaiye , ye shaitan nhi rukne wale aap thak jayenge..." she asked maid to bring some refreshments from there as she took arish by ear while armaan and Mishika followed her while Anwar laughed he become like children while playing with his grandsons and granddaughter. She is just like her mother meerab he smiled as he watched his daughter making arish eat some raw mangoes while he sits in her lap as armaan and mishi made her eat while she also feeds them her daughter is a great daughter due to his own stupidity and anger he lost all his parenthood and never know before murtasim and meerab how a child growing up means and when Mishika born to meerab and murtaim he cried as he sees the familiar replica of her daughter and he vowed to live with her the every moment which he missed with meerab. His daughter with time had became warm to him and they shared a healthy relation due to murassim help and love she overcomes all her pain and anger and forgives them all with time .

" mumma baba kab aayenge .." her daughter asker her mother while playing with her chain and looked in her eyes innocently missing her father.

" mishu baba jaldi aajayenge aapko essay mila hai na likhne ke liye aap vo likho, jab baba aayenge phir unhe dikhana ..ok' she said to her eldest daughter as she smiled listening about her father coming and squealed loudly in happiness as she runs to her room to complete her homework. She smiled mishika is their first born in the first year of marriage she convinced her after 3 or 4 months and they had celebrated their first anniversary while she is pregnant with her.

After 2 years she had concieved armaaan and arish as twins which is a slight risky pregnancy so they had left the idea after that and these three are two handful for her to handle with her cases and khanum duties to all managing them she gets tired and doesn't think more about it. Mishika due to being only girl in all family and the first born is everyone's favorite and for murtasim she is his princess one tear in her eyes and he will turn world down.

" arish chalo tum spelling karo phir jab Maryam maaz aur Sohail ko le aayengi phir tum kuch nhi karoge chalo get up mera acha baacha .." though arish decide to deny her but listening about the chocolate offer after that he dropped the idea of it and runs to bring his books while armaan lay her head on her lap as he snuggled more in her as she caress more his head , She softly asked as she ruffles her hair

' baache kya Hua, maan kuch Hua hai meri jaan..."

" mumma aap Kitna saara work karte ho aur aapko holidays bhi nhi milti rest bhi nhi karte aap tired ho jaoge nhi..." her 5 year old innocently making her heart swon over her son love whose centre of attention is his mother only from childhood he is her favorite as he always care about her a little more not more than his father though but still.

" aap chinta mat Karo aapki mumma tired nhi hongi , aap ho naa aap good boy banke Sara Kam karte ho phir arish ko bhi help karte to mumma tired ni hogi ok now chalo getup and go ..." she kissed his head softly and he gave her a kiss on her cheek and runs happily behind his brother.

She sighed as she stood up and moved towards her room to study some files which are pending she thought to study from home today as children Vacation started so she thought to give them a little more time as murtasim is in London for some maybe after tomorrow he will return. As she is reading suddenly she feels like using washroom while she flushed she stopped a little blood spotting she frowned but thinking it to be a irregular period she sighed and after finishing her business she goes outside and focused on her work time lapse and in afternoon she checked upon children who are taking their nap as she checks the a.c. temperature and covered them on their respective bed.

She told the cook to prepare some biryani today and before that to prepare their mango shake after sometime which they are asking from a while and she knows they will create a big mishap if they will not get it . She smiled as she received his call and moved towards their room lawn as she took her lemonade

" mil gi tumhe fursat kaam se aagyi biwi ki yaad ... " she said without looking towards the screen as she sets her phone while he laughed

" ohh meerab Maine bhi kisse ummed laga li koi mera haal chaal pochega, rum to theri meri meerab not possible vaise bata do yahan sab khairiyat hai aur main bhi theek hoo.." He teased her which made her more irritated and she looked angrily

" finally dekha to kya Hua hai are these two boys of yours giving you tough time , meri mishi jaise nhi haina hote to tum pareshan nhi hoti.." He said softly remembering his daughter and seeing his expression her eyes softened and she asked softly
" yad aarahi hai uski.."

" I missed her sports day meerab , she comes second main nhi tha first time uske liye she missed me a lot .." He said sadly remiscing how he had been stuck there from two weeks and had to miss his daughter sports day first time leaving him disheartened

" ohh murtaim she is too chill about it usse Maine ched diya ki baba ne miss kar diya to abb aap unse gussa Hoge to what she said baba ko important work hoga isliye nhi aaye aur uske baba ko koi kuch nhi kahega she fought with all of us , uff Allah kya lawyer hai tumhari meri beti ko apni team main le rakha tumne ek baat nhi sunti tumhare liye..." she teased while pouting at her last statement while he laughed in joy and seeing his laughter she sighed atleast the frowns are not on his face.

" vo meri mishu hai tum kyu chid rahi ho agr vo meri lawyer hai to uski maa bhi to meri hi personal lawyer banni thi sabse pehle..." and they laughed together

" maine chocolates le li hai and before he could complete
" maan ka gift yaad haina he has been asking this from much time aur pls arish ke liye bhi uska vo game le aana ..pichli baar uske marks ache aaye the Maine kaha tha agr marks ache aaye to baba layenge ..." she completed he nodded his head

" ye maan aur mishi to humare baache hi hai meerab I know kahi arish badal to nhi gaya tha naa main hospital late aaya tha i should not go London ye pakka exchange ho gaya..." He sighed and she laughed

" you teased my son a lot itna bhi sharati nhi hai vo ., '
" jaise you don't complain about him.., acha suno you are not taking care yourself meerab Maine dekha maa begum ne bataya kaise kal chakkar aagaya tha what's all this meerab..." His voice stern no matter how far he is no compromise will be taken for her safety and she bites her lips

" vo  kal ekdum b.p low hogaya but abb theek hai ek to tumhare sipahi har jagah ghoomte rehte hai...har baat Pata chal jaati hai mere baacho ko bhi safaris de dete ho aur vo bhi tumhari baat mate hai..." she scowled and his grip on pen tighten

" meerab no carelessness aur ye aajkal jo dieting ka booth chada haina sirpe utaro foran, jab main aao mujhe jaisi healthy meerab mai chodke gaya tha vaisi chahiye no compromise clear..." He said in his non monotonous tone and she knows she had to go otherwise he knows his ways to make her agree to his terms she sighed and nods her head after armaan pregnancy she had Gained a weight and a little insecure about it so she mostly kept herself away from oily food to balance the diet but nowadays again she started to bloated and stomach had changes so she started to diet hidding from him but whom she is kidding her every move is watched by his hawk like eye and she had to accept it
" murtasim I feel tired really early Thora se kaam karke thak jaati hoo I thought Thora dieting karungi to it will be better but it's not working ..."

" jaan ., you need nutritious no diet mere aane se pehle pehle ye sab band Karo varna sachmain bohot bura hoga if I find any of that salad in your plate again .., eat your food properly meerab...' his voice laces with dominance and she knows she is in deep trouble he will surely feed her with his hands in front of them all making her to ask to swallow herself in the earth so she agreed instantly

" baache jab uthenge raat ko phone karunga abhi ke meetings hai take care yourself aur majn alne dhyaan rakh raha hoo  khana time pe khaa raha hoon so bhi time pe raha hon bye ...Love you.."

" love you too.." she whispered and takes a nap herself before she indulge herself in housework again today is a tough day she thought as she missed him immensely the shirt his scent is laying on his side while she hugged his pillow closer to herself as she made the three musketeers of the house asleep in their room . These are the only hours which she dreaded most the night their room, the endless talk with some serious discussion to their playful teasing from cuddling session to their hot makeouts the laughter to their sad moments are all witnessed by it and she felt herself more emotional as she crossed one more date without him sleeping. She knows he feels the same as when he is talking to the children the longing emotions in his eyes didn't get unnotice by her, her husband is a well man who can hides his emotions well but look like she knows his soul like so much that she can felt its depth when he whispered a soft missed you to her and she felt like crying without him all days look sore to her and she felt frustrated to manage small things too that's why she forgot to take vitamins tablets and had been feeling nausea from morning thankfully no one notices otherwise her husband will take a good class of her and maa begum will too restrict her to take any step from bed by her son order.

She kissed his photo softly and taking his shawl slept remembering their small moments.

The morning time is tough making all of them without their father presence seems to difficult task to her like her they are too fussy about it and make fuss mostly at the food table , she felt their emotions and didn't scold much while making their favorite and children got busy after that but she skipped her meals the same puking feeling hit her and she felt to go to doctor for a checkup but not making anyone known and hides it from her husband eyes is itself a task taking a car from home and the location will be shared to him but luckily luck was on her side as maa begum asked to check on the reports of her as she tested with diabetes last year so they took care of that mostly and does her regular checkup she agreed and moved happily one tension is turned down.

The pregnancy test are asked to do and she felt nervous yet two pregnancies and she is asking to be tested for 3 she gulped but nodded the test came positive and the reports are tested 5 months she gasped like a fish and when doubts were asked all doubts are cleared her heart came to her mouth as she returned but no one notice her expression so she quickly fade it down as she listens that murtasim flight will be land today night and she forgot all things as she listen about his returning.

The room was prepared like his choice the fresh jasmine and rose flowers are kept with his favorite colour bedsheet and all his favorite meal are cooked today the biryani kheer , with his favorite paan all are laid properly anwar had gone to pick him up though he denied but still.

And she goes inside to get herself get ready and she sighed as she gazed at her belly now she understood what she thought is bloating is actually her baby and she didn't even knew about his existence yes she finds about gender today only and it's a boy., she caress her small bump and she sighed

" iss age main baache ho sakte hai..." she asked herself nervously already they have complete family by God grace three children are there and now this age she thought and feels a little awkward to Share moreover with all responsibilities how murtasim will react to it she sighed and refresh herself for him. They had taken care of it after she faced some complications in her last pregnancy the condoms are used properly while she takes her pills but as she thought about their best yet urgent actions Maryam anniversary was there before 5 months

She had wore a beautiful multicolor organza saree with a dupatta attached to it and rolled her hairs lightly but a addition to it she puts a small black bindi and filled her eyes with kohl her husband is gonna late today the panchayat discussion are hectic nowadays and he often comes late so after getting ready they left for maryam' home as she celebrate her 6 anniversary with her two little son maaz and Sohail and her husband joined them later on taking her breathe away looking like always handsome in his black tuxedo with a Grey tie she felt like teenager again even living with this man after 7 years she could not able to believe that she got this man for herself only , her eyes shine as she sees him staring with same emotions.

Meerab got busy in some ladies talk with Maryam and her sister in law, but murtasim with whom naurez is discussing political issues his eyes never left meerab this woman is yet same even after giving birth to his three children she still that 24 years old meerab whom he marry and whom in fallen love with the same woman who took his breathe at every chance like today where she is looking no less than a siren in his eyes whose eyes didn't left for a second. The possessiveness rushed in his veins as he sees how both male and female are  busy staring his wife , and this doesn't settle well with him how she is the centre of attraction, he knows she is an indescribable beauty and he would happy be her personal bodyguard to her whole life. He growl and pulled his Steps toward his lady and grabbed her waist firmly in his grip and she gets shocked but as she notice his gaze something is there she smiled politely as Maryam smiled seeing her brother and left them in privacy , her gaze followed and she see how his business associates are busy staring her she noted that today is a long day but an excitement feels her body as she sees how possessivley he claimed her as his in all the hall.

" you are looking siren , this is bad maza aata haina mujhe chedne mai.." He said huskily in her ear and she shivered but felt excited she surely gets ready to please his eyes today as she stared herself in mirror

" you don't look bad Mr. Khan .., " she teased with a playful voice as she entwine his hands with her and they enjoyed the evening, the children are fully tired and as mishi is asleep in his lap while armaan in hers and and arish wants to be with his grandma and nanu so he is with them they slowly led them both to their bed and tucked three of them Properly but as soon as they hit to their room. She is pinned to the wall and kissed roughly the dominance in his actions while his tongue played with her knows she knows today is going to be along night .

" you know how hard it's for me to control in that damn place to claim you as mine., is not our children enough proof that this beauty is already taken.." He said dangerously as he pushed her on bed and their hands pulled their clothes out while he thrusts in her hardly she control her moans thinking about her children.

" don't meri jaan ., loose yourself..'While he said and they both lost in the pleasure world though he forget to use the condom that time but she herself took the pill next time maybe she said in her mind .

But they both took care of everytime her pills are regular even after that she thought.

Seeing each other after a long time their eyes filled with joy and unshed tears if they are alone he would definitely taken her in a bone crushing hug and kissed her till they are not in position to breathe. But he sighed they are sitting in living room with their family where his daughter is clingy in his arms while his son are either side of him sitting and telling about their day in his absence he missed that his family his wife all of them he dearly missed it . The warmth filled in his chest as he stared how she is helping servants to set over the table for dinner.  She looks a little changed he notices but soon diverts his attention as his daughter show him her medal and trophy which she won and he kissed her forehead gently while cuddling into her. She is truly his meerab's copy and he loved her to death. The first time he holds his eyes didn't stop the tears how softly she grip his finger in her little finger and he promised her to cherish and protect her forever.

After a light dinner they all retired to their room while children though tries to urge to sleep with their father today, but meerab silently told them that he is tried today and then he have to take a good rest so they reluctantly agreed after giving both of them a good night kiss. Closing the door she goes behind him who is sitting on the bed closing his eyes one arm under his head and his head on bedrest., she sighed happily finally he is here her home is back.

Sensing her movements he opened his eyes seeing her standing beside the bed he pulled her towards him and made her sit on his lap gazing in her eyes deep, she shiver still after living with this man 7 years her heart thumped every time he sees with that intense look and her body took a warmth in his embrace as she softly muzzled her face in his neck " I missed you .." she softly whispered while he pats her back lovingly

" you are not taking yourself meerab, I see how little you ate at dinner..." His voice is filled with dominance as he holds her gently while caressing her face. While she let's out a nervous chuckle seeing his questioning gaze he knows her too well

" I tried but mujhe bhook nhi thi, it's just my mood swing nothing else .." she tries to lie hoping he will believe on it and he believed to her much surprise as he sees her worriedly but he thought she might be near to date that's why she is behaving like that. He took her lips in his rough ones while playing with her hair locks and she equally responded to him. As their breathes heavened and their heart thumping in their chest while she pulled his hairs to bring him more close. The longing passion is clear in their kiss which they felt away from each other as the tongues fight in dominance and she broke the kiss first to gasp for air. While looking at her disheveled state he feels his desire awakening in him up and she felt herself burning in them. The unspoken words with of their missing to their longing she sighed and hugged him tightly while he caress her hair, he pulled the blanket above them and took her in his arms properly while she played with his buttons.

" how was your meeting,.." she asked softly
" good , finally the project started abb workload Thora kam hoga ...now I can stay here peacefully.." He said with a little smile as he kissed her hairs and she softly mewled as she gets lost whether to tell him now or not. She thought

" you are lost , kya Hua hai..." He said while massaging her scalp to let her ease in his presence

" nothing,  it's just about the case.., leave it kal baacho ka plan hai full day tumhare saath..." she said happily
" hmm., I don't think I am free tomorrow so Mrs. Khan aap apni appointment baad ki le lijiye ..." He teased her while she whack him lightly as after some exchanged on her words their eyes dropped and they slept in each other's embrace peacefully after a days.

the morning came fast as she listens some knocking her door continously and she open her eyes slowly to see time., she sighed but didn't feel any weight on her body , she grabs her phone to watch the time and she gasped to see how late today she was. The children are surely up and she have to make their favorite breakfast today as their father returned and have to help them in their morning jogging. Her body seems to be tired and she woke up while collecting her dupatta from side she wondered where he was.

She opened the gate to see arish with his soft toy in his hands while armaan behind him as they came inside armaan sits on the couch outside the room while arish is a little cranky today as his tooth is coming and wants his mother arms . Armaan had been a little sleepy so he slept again on the brown couch and she bend down to pick him up but before she could a voice stopped her

" don't careful..." He said worriedly and glared at her who bend down to take him up. She gulped seeing the blazing eyes and nods knowing he knows as he took hold of arish who is a little startled as he pats his son back to make him sleep again and she sighed when he made her sit on the couch beside them. But wondered how he knows when she didn't tell him anything.
