One month really had change alot of things, alot of emotion's and alot of ways of thinking. We say, there's always calm before the storm. That's true! The emotions, the life and the arm, that use to feel peaceful, now gives him the suffocating feeling! He doesn't know what that is, but hearing her talk, being with her left him breathless in a way where he wants to just get away for some times.

Shehryar had loved mahal all his life! He was smitten by her innocent charm that had him on his knees with the one glance from her, now the same mahal doesn't bought him peace.

He was yet still laying in her arm, even if his heart was begging to let go of her, he didn't! He held her more tightly. The feeling seems relative to him if he says he's not lying! This made fear crept in him, he could feel something is going to go against them! He's going to loose something and whatever that may be! He doesn't wants to.

He was laying with mahal, while she blabbered about one of many thing she did, or what she saw today, what gossips were talked to her by maids! And he listened quietly.

Until her statement had his complete attention " or apka pata hai, zulainoor, jiski abhi shadi hui thi?? Yaad hai apko wo" mahal tilted her head until she saw him nodding, so she continued " aj ai thi wo!! Ghar hamare" he gruffly asked" kyun?" Mahal then excitedly nodded and sat up, away from his arm, yet he again pulled him closer" wo. Apko yaad hai na uski shadi bas abhi hi hui thi!! Jahan ham gae bhi the to wo aj mithai laii thi!! Ya allah uske baby hone wala hai, kitni excited thi wo!!!"

(And you know, zulainoor, That got married now?do you remember her?)
(She came today! At home)
(Why?)
(You remember she married just now! Where we went so she brought sweets, she's having a baby!! She was so excited!)

She ranted to him, his mind struck on the baby! He too has been married for five year's and a month or more since they had put their martial bed to good use. She again laid beside him, her head once again on her chest, and his arm went around her waist.

For a moment or two, she was quite and was drawing random pattern on his chest, he could feel her hasitation and she could feel his dampen mood. To lighten up the situation, she asked" hamare kitne bache honge?" He stiffened.

(How many babies we are going to have?)

He had never thought about having a baby! And his heart did weird beating hearing her talk about babies! He don't want them!! Not now maybe? Never!

He ignored her question, she waited for quite a while then looked at him, his attention was fixated on the wall, before them. She shooked him a little, he just hummed. She repeated the question again" bataen na? Kitna babies honge hamare" he irritatedly sigh. The irritation was visible, mahal was confused and shocked at this.

(Tell me! How many babies we'll have?)

"Mahal, fazool baten nhi karo!!" She sat up, his dryness, his emotion's and his irritation was new to her, she was spoilt by him, loved by him to core and hi, suddenly changing his domanear was weird for her as well as hurting.

(Mahal, Don't talk nonsense!)

" Kya matlab fazool shery? Ye koi fazool baat to n-nhi hai" her voice cracked at the end, he sat up on the bed. She also got up " sherry? Meri baat ka jawab to den, kya hogaya hai apko suddenly?"
He, who has now stood up and was wearing his kameez, turned around and glared at her, mahal flinched visibly.

(What do you mean by nonsense sherry? Thats not nonsense!)
(Sherry, reply to me, what had happened to you suddenly!)

"Kuch nhi hua hai!! Ap chup kar jao larki khuda ka wasta!" He slammed the door shut while going outside. She gulped, her tear's filled her eyes. She was so hurt by his sudden change of mood.

(Nothing had happened! Now shut up girl for God sake!)

Her hope was running low, she was on the verge of breaking the room! She wiped away her wet cheek and stood up, she went towards bathroom and did her ablution. She was in the extreme need of His help only. She won't ask for anything else but her husband.

She did exactly that, she fall on sajood, her tongue didn't stop, she cried while asking him to give her more sabar, she's nothing Infront of his ability.  She's his meek human, who could only bare what's fallen on her, nothing more, not anymore!
------------------------

Abeer groaned, seeing another female employee coming out of her Boss's office while wiping her tear's, while the male employees were red as tomato.
Arsal was in bad mood since morning but that doesn't mean he should be jerk with them!! He can talk with little decency.

But she turned around and continue doing what she was doing before the whole fiasco of angry boss and sad employees, he's a jerk anyway. No need to make him understand the importance, cause he wont understand anything!! Abeer murmured profanities in her mouth. Yet her attention was half on laptop screen and half on glass invisible door before her.

She wanted to teach him some values, that was given to him in his childhood but he lost it somewhere! She sighed and looked at the presentation on power point, it was blank for an hour now and she was getting hungry. Looking at the time, it was almost noon break. As a good Assistant she is.

She finally stood up, and went towards his office, knocking on it she waited for permission that was never granted to her, so she stepped inside, she was met with literal darkness. The blindfolds were shut, the lights were off and heater was on! She confusedly looked around and opened the torch on her mobile.

And the sight before her, had her smiling like an idiot. The boss of theirs was sprawled on the table, sleeping away his problems and anger. Her anger melted away seeing him snoring oh so peacefully. His hairs messy and his head on his hand, he was looking so cute while Pouting.

Turning the small light on the ceiling. she went near him and clicked his photo. Smiling mischievously she immediately put it on her lock screen before turning serious and opening every lights in the room. He groaned and stirred up, she also opened the blindfolds.

"Kyyaa hai, abeer dafa ho" he sleepily murmured. She narrowed her eyes, the anger coming once back again. She stomped towards him and smacked on the back of his head, he flinch and immediately got up. Glaring daggers at her, he twisted her arm and turned her around.

(Whatt Abeer, get lost!)

" Kisi din marunga mai tumhe!!" She giggled and said " or tumhe lagta hai tum bach jaoge??" The questioning tone had him gripping her hand tight, she hissed and kicked his leg from the back. He groaned in pain and left her, she took the chance to attack him.

(I'll beat you someday!)
(And you think you'll survive?)

Delivering small slaps at him, she laughed when he ducked down the table to save himself, if any of his employees would see him like this, they would die happily! But this sight will only be uncovered when she would be there.

Their little teasing ended when her phone ringed. She saw her mother's number flashing, she smiled big and sat on the sofa, attending the call she cheerily greeted her mother. Arsal also took the chance to stand up and sit beside her on the sofa.

The smile on her face vanished, he stopped his moment and looked at her. She stuttered, and cut the call. Her hands fall down beside her, lifelessly and the phone hit the ground.

He shaked her, and asked " kya..hua?" She looked at him for a minute before crying out loud. He was stunned. It was her second time crying infront of him. He stepped near her, cautiously, she wrapped her arms around him, still crying while he was stunned in his place.

(What happened?)

" Kya hua hai abeer, batao to sahi" he impatiently asked her. "B-ba-baba..ho-hospi-tal" The two syllabus words were on the only thing she uttered! He had understand her meaning.

(What happened Abeer, atleast tell me)

He put his hand around her waist " m-mujhe ja-jana hai!" He nodded. "Abhi chalte hai! Apna bag lo abeer" he picked up the keys, his phone and wallet before tooking her hand in his. He went outside with her. The attention shifted. He could care less about them.

(I-i wanna go!)
(We'll go now, Go pick your bag)

He, from his other hand called fawad. Who informed her, maya had gotten the new of Mahid Khan getting another heart attack, but this time it wasn't minor, but major. He was in the hospital of lahore.

He know how time consuming it could be for her to travel from car. His first instinct was to call his flight agent, to book the two hours before flight on domestic sector from karachi to lahore.
All the while, abeer was unable to controll herself. Her baba had her life, if something happened to him, then who will look after her and her mother.

Hadia had never lived without her husband, he's been her support from the time she doesn't know! Even before their marriage. He had stood up with her, had fought with her from everyone. 

She wanted to reach to her mother as soon as possible. It was given to her. After painfully long four hours, she was now sitting beside her sobbing mother, the khan's were devastated already, the twins were always been the best source of happiness in their life, the MMM siblings can never be broken!

She looked at arsal, who was standing Infront of them, with their taya abbu and mahad chachu. She was great ful for him. What he had done, no one would have done to her, considering he hates her guts. And he also didn't ask for the money of all the travelling.

The doctors soon Informed them about the health of mahid. It was getting bad drastically! She was feeling herself break bit by bit.

Doctor had Informed them about CHD that her father had yet he never told it to anyone. Not to hadia. Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of heart attack. It can be caused by many things, mahid had it because of his high blood pressure.

The doctors were glad to say it wasn't extreme. The hypertension can cause the arteries that supply blood and oxygen to the brain to burst or to be blocked, causing a stroke! And a stroke can kill you! The high blood pressure that her father never took seriously could have caused him his life.

How can he be so irresponsible? However they were glad to know he's okay, he woked up, but due to his sudden heart attack, he was getting problem speaking.

They let hadia meet mahid first, then they went in. It was weird, her father crying. And all the fiasco of heart attack. Abeer was scared! Her father saw her and asked her to sit beside her. She timidly did. She was still angry!

"I-im so-sorryy" hearing him, she sniffled. And hugged him Carefully. Mahid smiled hearing her letting her emotions out, she ranted angrily to him while he just nodded. the news had shaken him to core too. He's now above fifty, no one live 100 year's now a days nor he'll live. He'll have to settle his wife and his daughter.

He was sure they will be loved, but he had to find the king, who can treat his daughter like a queen. While abeer was ranting, and mahid was thinking about the king, Arsal came in the room and in the picture. He was immediately recognized by mahid who nod at him, Arsal smiled and returned the greetings.

Arsal than looked at crying Abeer, her eye's were almost swollen till it closes, her nose pink and her cheeks red! He smiled at the cute sight. Abeer, upon seeing him send him an cheerful smile. He returned it too. 

Mahid smiled. His heart had detect the gaze of young man standing infront of him. And he may or maynot had seen his daughter's lock screen. He was happy for her to be over ayaan! And Arsal is completely what he had expected for her.

He lightly asked abeer to give him some time with arsal, who was shocked. Abeer confusedly nodded and went outside. Mahid gesture arsal to sit on the place abeer was sitting. He obliged.

Mahid started the chat firstly to asked about arsal, his family and his company. Mahid was a diligent buisness man, and arsal was honoured to talk to him about business until it wasn't about business. The direct question had him gulping.

"Pasand karte ho meri beti se?" Arsal was shocked about how does he know? If he know than Abeer? He hasitated before nodding confidently "yes!" Mahid smiled at him.

(You like my daughter?)

" Shadi karo ge?" Arsal didn't waste a second to nod again, this time enthusiastically. "Meri tabiyat dekh rahe ho na? Mai nhi jee paunga itna! Jaane se pehle apni beti ko khush dekhna chahta hun!" Arsal nodded. He could understand the concern. He would do the same with their daughter? Their!

(Will marry her?)
(You are my health? I wont be able to live long! I wanna see my daughter happy before I die!)

"Agar karte ho Pasand, or shadi karna chate ho.. rishta laoge?" Arsal smiled and held the hand of man. " Ap fikar kyun karrahe hain. Jis time pehli baar dekha tha us hi time Abeer ko apna banane ki chahat hui thi! Mai nhi manta k mai ab peeche hatunga... Han... apki beti kya kehti hai wo alag baat hai"

(If you like her, and wanna marry her, will you bring alliance?)
(Why are worried? The first time I had seen her was the time I wanted her to be mine! I don't think I'll back out now! Yeah I'm dont know about your daughter!!)

Mahid nodded confusedly and asked" matlab?" Arsal then sat up straight and excitedly explain their meeting, mahid laughed at the drama, than the daily teasing and shades throwing! Mahid was laughing mess by the time arsal finished, who himself was laughing hard "or... or use laga k Maine churaya hai!! Mai chicken kai pieces churaunga??" He laughingly asked mahid about one scene where abeer had accused him of stealing her chicken piece while eating dinner.

(Meaning?)
(And she thought I stole it! I'll stole chicken??)

Just because they sit together" ya Allah... Kyun karte ho itna tang use! Or Pasand bhi karte ho!" Mahid couldn't help but ask the man, who had gotten quite now.

(Ya Allah, why do you tease her and yet love her?)

Arsal sighed sadly" uski zindagi mai mere lie is nafrat k ilawa koi jagah nhi, or mairi zindagi mai ab uske ilawa kuch nhi!! Jab sochta hun k wo nafrat bhi chorde or muhabbat bhi na kare... To moat yaad ati hai" the tear's that were barely there were seen by mahid. He smiled and patted the young man hands.

(In her life, there's no place for me other than hate!! Whenever I think that she wont love me nor hate me? It kills me!)

"Allah par bharosa hai" Arsal nodded without hesitation "Bas phir, uske ghar mai dair hai... Andhere nhi!!" Arsal smiled while murmuring beshak.
"Mera wada hai tumse....meri beti ki shadi tumse hogi! Uski marzi se hogi" and arsal could only smile. His heart had hope and pain, he could only smile the problem away.

(You believe in Allah?)
(Then, he may have to keep you waiting but there won't be darkness!)
(I promise you! My daughter will marry you and will do it with her constant!!)

But, He's the one who know what's in your heart and he's the one who varily gives you everything!
