Something was off with Jahana Begum, she didn't come out from her room since afternoon, if Nirma or Tehreem called her, she told them she would come out from her room after Jahangir and Rahab will come from the office, she wants to talk to them.
No one knew what happened. Did they commit any mistakes? Everyone recalled what they did wrong while Bi Jaan kept mum.
Every member of the house were standing in Bi Jaan's room, waiting for her to tell them what happened, but Bi Jaan was staring at space.
Hadiyan, who has just returned from office and was very tired, looked at Anna, expecting some answer from her. Maybe she knows why Bi Jaan is angry.
Feeling someone's gaze on herself, Anna raised her head and saw Hadiyan's blue eyes on her.
Aise kyu ghoor rahe hain jaise maine kuch kiya Hai! Her eyes nurrowed at him.
Before they could exchange more silent words, Bi Jaan spoke.
"Hume laga tha yeh shaadi Anna aur Hadiyan ki marzi se hui hai. Jahangir, Rahab, Hume aap dono yeh umeed nahi thi ki apni zidd bachho pe paband karenge." Bi Jaan was speaking to Jahangir and Rahab, while Hadiyan again looked at Anna. Her eyes were already on him, as she shook her head, telling him that she didn't say anything to Bi Jaan.
(I thought this marriage happened with the consent of Anna and Hadiyan. Jahangir, Rahab, I never knew you two would force your will on your children.)
Jahangir and Rahab looked ashamed, Bi Jaan was right in someway, Anna didn't have any memory of her previous life when they forced a new relationship on her. They knew they are wrong, that's why didn't say anything in front of Bi Jaan.
"Bi Jaan, apko aisa kyu lag raha hai, Shaadi meri aur Anna ki marzi se hui thi." Hadiyan took a step closer to Bi Jaan and told her. Bi Jaan was sitting on the bed and Hadiyan knelt in front of her.
(Bi Jaan, you have some misunderstanding, Anna and I borh gave our consent to this marriage.)
"Toh phir Anna ke chehre pe hume woh khushi kyu nahi nazar ati jo nayi dulhan ke chehre pe hoti hai, na hi hume aap khush lagte hain. Bi Jaan bhudhi zaroor ho gayi hain lekin itna samajh ata hai kab koi khush hai aur kab kon banawat kar raha hai khush rehne ka." Bi jaan asked him.
(Then why I am not able to find happiness on Anna's face? Neither you look happy to me. I can feel when someone is pretending to be happy.)
"Aap galat samjh rahi hain. Anna ki tabiyat theek nahi thi kuch dino se..." Hadiyan tried to explain her.
(Anna is always sick...."
"Bi Jaan," Anna came forward, "Apko galat fehmi hui hai. Main khush hoon." She sat beside Hadiyan on floor and put her hands on Bi Jaan's hands.
(You have misunderstanding, I am happy.)
"Hume Hadiyan aur Anna se akele mein baat karni hai." They all looked redundant to leave Anna with Bi Jaan. But had to leave because Bi Jaan's order. Beside, Hadiyan was there. He nod at them.
(I want to talk to Anna and Hadiyan in alone.)
"Bi Jaan, hum dono ki life mein bohot kuch hua hai jissey dono hi disturb hain... Anna ka accident aur phir..." Hadiyan stopped talking as he looked at Anna. Feeling his gaze on herself, she also looked at him.
(Bi Jaan, there is lot of things going on in our life, that's why we are always disturbed. And Anna's accident.)
"Anna se shaadi maine apni mazri se ki thi... uss marzi pe mujhe kabhi koi malal ya shakk nahi. Marrying Anna was the most beautiful decision of my life and nothing could change that." Not for once, he took his eyes away from her. While Anna couldn't endure the longing of his eyes and looked down.
