Love is something strange in it self. If you're in love then the whole world will
Seemed pink to you. You'll feel butterfly in you stomach by his one touch. You'll crave to see him. Or if I said love is not easy as we can see. You've to face rejection, difficulties. You've to bear so much pain. You've to sacrifice your happiness for them. Love is the reason of life.

Her heart beats faster when her eyes found his gaze on her. His smile can make her day good. His one compliment was enough to manage a smile on her face all day long. His one touch can make her crazy. The all she need is him, her husband, her only reason of live, her strength, her everything, her Murtasim.

She smiled like a fool when she remember their first kiss they had yesterday. A layer of blush covered her cheeks. She placed her both palm on her face in shyness. She never thought about it that she will ever kiss anyone with this much passion. His lips are not rough as they looked but softer. Where her lips are softer then him.

She looked at the stairs from where her husband was coming downstairs with his file." Maa saab ko dekha tumne?", he asked her." Woh unke room mein hain", she replied." Okay", he said and went towards hus mothers room.

He knocked and ask for permission." Aao beta, lya baat hai?", maa begum asked." Maa saab mujhe gaaon nikalna hoga abhi", he said." Achanak? Sab thik hai na murtasim?", she asked with concern." Bas malick'on ke sath kuch masla ho gaya hai", he said." Beta khuda ki khair se jaana", maa begum said patting his shoulder." Allah hafiz", he said and leave.

As he came out of the room he saw meerab was roaming near the garden. He went to her with a smile." Kya kar rahi ho yahan?", he asked." Totey udda rahi hu", she said." Mere hosh ke", he whispered." Kya kaha?", she asked him." Nothing", he uttered.

She looked at him from head to toe for sometimes. Like she's scanning him." Aap kahin jaa rahe hain kya?", she asked cutely." Haan", he said." Aap akele akele ghumne jaa rahe hain? Mujhe bhi jana hai", she said with a cute pout. Damn that girl yaar, he chuckled at her expressions.

"Ghumne nhi jaa raha, Gaon jaa raha hu kaam se", he said." Oohh... Phir aap jayein, main aur mariyam bhi phir akele shopping pe chale jayenge", she said." Meerab idhar dekha", he said while holding her chin. She looked at him,"Jaldi hi wapas aa jaunga, promise", he uttered Looking straight into his eyes.

"Kab jaa rhe hain aap?", she asked." Bas abhi jaa raha hu", he said. She looked at him with a soft gaze." Kab wapas ayenge?", she asked." Ek hafte baad", he exclaimed. She hugged him tightly snuggling more into his chest. He was surprised with this first but soon he too hugged her." Pagal ladki rone wali baat hai yeh, aa jaunga na ek hafte mein", he said consolingcm her.

"Mujhe kuch nhi pata aap mujhe bhi satg le jayein, mujhe bhi jaana hai", she said while sobbing near his chest. He caressed her hairs gently and uttered," wahan khatra hai meerab, pehle sab sahi kar dun wahan phir main tumhe le jaunga", he said. She broke the hug to looked at him.

"Promise?", she uttered while wiping her tears." Promise", he repeat." Aab rona band karo, main call karunga na tumhein, aur waise bhi sab log hain na yahan", he said." Thik hai aap jayein... Main akele hi movie dekhungi marium ke sathx, she said." Gussa na karo main aa kar dekhunga", he said.

" Allah hafiz.... Dafa hoiye", she uttered while looking away." Owww... Merab apne sohar se aise baat karogi. Gunah milega tumhein", he said playfully." Accha... Toh aapko bhi gunah milega", she said Looki at him." Kis baat ka?", he asked." Aap jo mujhe darate rehte hain... Uska gunah milega aapko", she replied with a pout.

"Aab sareek-e-hayat ban hi gayi hain toh dar lijiye thoda sa", he said and chuckled at her expressions. Why she's this much cute? He just wanna grab her waist and feel her lips in his. They heared marium was calling his name from a distance.

"Murtasim bhai maa begum bula rahi hain", marium said." Mujhe?", he asked." Nhi aapki sareek-e-hayat ko", she teased her brother and leave." Marium main aayi", meerab said and start leaving." Wait begum, aab kya aap sahi se Bye bhi nhi bolengi?", he uttered while holding her wrist.

Her breath hitched. Allah,he will be death of her one day. He pulled her towards him and kissed her forehead gently." I'll miss you begum", he said Looking at her doe eyes." Me too", she replied." Chalta hu, i'll call you after 10 PM, apna aur sab ka khayal rakhna", he uttered while leaving.

She blushed Looking at her husbands retired figure. A big smile crept her lips as she remember what he called her 'begum'.
She went inside of the house to meet maa begum.

She knocked the door and asked permission." Kitni baar bola hai meerab beta ijazat mangne ki zarurat nhi hai, aa jao", maa begum said sweetly." Aapne bulaya tha?", she asked." Haan yahan baitho", maa begum said and indicated her hand towards the bed beside her.

She sat on the bed and maa begum brought a small box." Isme kya hai maa begum?", she asked with a confused face." Isme humare ghar ke tijori ki chabi hai, yeh aaj se tum rakhogi", maa begum informed." Yeh sab aap mujhe yeh kyun de rahi hain?", she asked." Kyun ke waqt aa gaya hai ke aab hayedarabad ko uski nayi khanum mil jaye", maa begum said proudly.

"Humare family jitni bhi NGO, orphanage aur Old homes chalate hain aaj se unn sab ka kaam tum dekhogi, aur iss ghar ke faisle bhi tum logi", maa begum said." Main itni badi zimmedari nhi nibha paungi maa begum", she said." Tum kar paogi, mujhe pura yakeen hai bete. Tum bohot acche se yeh sab sambhalogi",maa begum said.

She looked at maa begum who is giving her a proud smile."Main hu na madad karne ke liye, Sab sambhal paogi tum", maa begum said." Jii main apni puri koshish karungi", meerab said confidently.

She took those keys with her and stepped out of the room. She told marium about this who gets very happy. They hugged eachother happily.

"Bhabhi mujhe bhi pura yakeen hai aap sab aram se sambhal lengi, because you're the best", Marium said cheering her up.
" Thanks marium", she replied to her.

"Pata nhi maa begum na-qabil logon ko kyu itni badi zimmedari sonp deti hain", haya said with an annoyed expression.
"Nahi haya maa ne tumhe toh zimmedar nhi di koi, toh aise kyu bol rahi ho", Marium said with a smirk.

" Tum mujhe na-qabil bol rahi ho marium?", haya said angrily." Aisa toh nhi kehna chahti thi, agar tumhe lag raha hai toh lagne do", she said and left with marium.

They all completed their dinner then everyone retired ti their respective rooms.
Meerab locked the room door and sat infront of the mirror. She combed her hairs and make a braid. When she was applying lotion  her phone start ringing. She got a Video call from Murtasim's number.

She recived the call." Assalamualaikum", she uttered." Walaikumassalam", he replied." Sahi se pohoch gaye na? Aap thik hain na? Khana khaya aapne? Multivitamins ki tables li?", she asked in  one breath." Meerab meerab shant ek ek sawal karte hain log", he said." Ooppsss.... Sorry", she said with a smile.

"Sahi se pohoch gaya, thik bhi hu, khana kha liya, multivitamins bhi le liya, aur kuch?", he said. She nodded her head in a no." Aab main puch loon apni biwi se?", he asked." Ji puchiye", Meerab said." Khana khaya ke nhi? Yaa phir se adha roza rakhna hai?", he asked her teasingly.

"Nhi khana kha liya", she replied." Accha suno, Darwaza lock kar lena, aur agar darr lage toh marium ko bol do woh tumhare sath so jayegi", Murtasim said." Nhi thik hai, mujhe darr nhi lagta okay", she said confidently.

"Accha.... Abhi subha hi koi bol raha tha main usse darata hu", he said." Haan tih aap yahan nhi hain na toh darayega  koun", she said." Main yahan se bhi dara sakta hu Tumhein yakeen mano", he said mischievously." Ch...Chaliye woh baat jane dete hain yeh batayein wahan ka kaam nipat gaya?", she asked.

She laid on her side while talking with him." Haan bas kal panchayat ke logon se baat karni hai,  iss zubair malick ke chapter ko jitni jaldi band kar paun  utna accha hai", he said." Bas aap thande dimag se faisla lein", she said calmly.

"Aapka hukum sar ankhon par", he said and laughed. She too laughed with him.
" Mujhe miss kar rahi ho?", he asked." Naa  kahun toh", she uttered." Main maan hi nhi sakta", he said." Phir puch kyun rahe ho aap?", she asked.

"Kyu ke main tumhare muh se sunna chahta hu", he said. She get up from the bed and came near the window." Murtasim aap window kd bahar dekhiye", she said." Kyu tum bhooth ban kar aayi ho", he said playfully." Nhi... Pagal admi kahin ke. Dekhiye na", she said.

"Andhera hai", he said." Aasman mein dekhiye, kitna khubsurat hai na. The moon is beautiful, isn't it?", she asked looking towards the moon." Ye it is", he said looking towards her." Yaar phone thik se ladko mujhe chand nhi dikh raha", he said." Toh khidki mein dekhiye na chand toh ek hi hai", she said." Nhi, mera chand toh alag hai", He uttered.

They talked to eachother for a long time. He cared for her alot and she too cared for him more than anything. Deep down her heart has feelings for him. Yes... She love him. She fall asleep during the call.

"Meerab, meerab, so gyi kya?", he said when he was seeing the ceiling of their room through the front camera." Offo... Good night", he uttered and cut the call.

"Yeh ladki bhi na, baat karte karte koun sota hai aise beech mein. Khair thak gayi hogi", he said to himself.
