If He Only Knew 💕

Chapter 19

Finally Begum Sahiba was discharged from hospital and we brought her home that very evening.. Asad seems happy, after that conversation we had in the hospital, I knew he has gotten some good news regarding his mother's health and I couldn't be any more happy.. "Where are you all going?" Begum Sahiba didn't want to doze off in her room so she was sitting in hall with all of us.. My family was about to leave when she stopped them..

"We were just heading home, we will make sure to come back tomorrow and check on you.." Abbu replied politely and Ammi nodded at that.. I am glad they are sticking up with my new family at this time, I really appreciate that.. "Stay for Dinner, I was having so much fun with everyone around, come on you all stay back.." She said almost pleading like a kid and my Mother smiled giving in to her request.. 

I smiled and immediately went back to kitchen to prepare for dinner, this was the first time I am going to cook in this house and I don't want to fail anyone.. "Careful Mom.. err.. sorry I mean Begum Sahiba.." I came back in the hall to see her trying to reach for an apple from the table when my mouth slipped.. I bite my lips at the oblivious mistake.. "I would love to hear Mom from you Zoya.." And the moment she said that with a smile my eyes watered up, I looked over to see my husband eying me with a warm smile on his face..

I can't believe how much he has change due to this one incident, I mean the exchange we have had since yesterday is just melting my heart every now and then.. We had a great evening chatting around each other while I cooked dinner with the help of the housekeeper and finally it was time to have some delicious food.. I set the table and call everyone for dinner...

"Seriously Bhabi Jaan, there is magic in your hands.. I mean Bro Jani is so lucky.." Ayaan chirped gobbling down his food in quick motions and I just laughed at him.. Asad didn't say a word but he did eat happily and fully making me relief that at least he doesn't hate something cooked by me.. "He is right Bhabi, you really are a good cook.." This time it was Najma praising me and I couldn't be anymore happy.. Well I did prepared all this for them to love it and they surely did.. Once everyone was done eating Mom called me to her...

"Here, these were given by my Mother in law when I first cooked the food in this palace.." She made me wear her Antique Bengal's that were so pretty that I hesitated to accept them but her insisting eyes didn't let me refuse and Ammi says it's a ritual that every newly wed have to go through so I didn't want to disrespect by rejecting her offer.. "Okay I have to talk to you gyz, so can we all just settle down in the hall.." Asad informed and everyone nodded, I immediately helped the housekeeper to clear the dining table while my parents stood up again to take their leave as they don't want to pry in Nawab's family matter..

"I said both my families.." The moment Asad said that and ask Farooqui's to join over a smile made it way onto my lips. He actually has accepted my family as his own just like I had done and can things go any more better.. Thank you Allah Taala, thank you so much.. "What do you want to talk about Asad?" Mom asked curiously and he just flashed a smile on her way taking a hold of her hands..

"It's about you Mom, it's a good news.." And now he has the attention of everyone around, all of us were curiously waiting for him to drop the good news while the man was literally taking his own sweet time.. "So I had a word with your Doctor today and he told me that a Mexican Doctor holds a record of saving 60% of his Leukemia patients life.. You have improved a lot in past few days so they sent your file to that hospital today morning and were waiting for their response and guess what they have actually replied back.."

"Okay Bro Jani, just tell us further..." Najma and Ayaan said almost at the same time and again our attention moved back to Asad who was looking at his Mother lovingly, "And they have called you for the treatment, you can be okay Mom.. You can win over this.. I have decided we are leaving for Mexico they after tomorrow and I am positive things will turn out good, My heart says Mom, everything will be okay soon.." Ya Allah Thank you so very much. This is far the best news I have heard..

"All thanks to almighty Son, Congratulations Begum Sahiba we all are so happy to hear this.." Ammi said hugging her whilst tears while others did the same and Abbu just exchanged a grateful smile with her.. "But All of us can't stay out of the country for long Asad, who will take care of things here, Rashid can take care of few things but not all.. He too has a family to look after. And Zoya is getting her degree in less than a week now, she has to start her job.. Allah knows how much time this treatment will take, we all can't stay their for long.." Mom voiced her thoughts and that made me think too.. But her treatment is important not the other things.

"What are you saying Mom, you want me to not take this opportunity where I can actually have a chance to get you back.." Asad looked taken aback by her disapproval actually we all were.. Najma and Ayaan pouted at her words but said nothing, they knew their brother will handle it all.. "Do you think, I want to die leaving my lovely family behind. Of course not Son.. I am just saying we all can't go not that even I will also not go.." And now we looked questioningly at her..

"She means two of you can go with her and two of you can stay behind, right Begum Sahiba.." Abbu smiled at her that she gratefully returned.. "That's why he is my most trusted and long time Manager, he understands me so well... Ayaan and Najma can't stay here on their own, neither they can look after our company.. So it's better if they come with me while you and Zoya stay back.. I know you will arrange everything for three of us and we will manage fine in that country.." Asad looked a bit conflicted but the final decision look on her Mom's face made him agreed reluctantly...

"Fine but I am coming with you all and once you people are settled over, I will fly back here.. I hope you all will not mind if Zoya stays over for some days." He asked my parents and they laughed, of course they will not.. "We would love to have her back with us for some time Jiju.." Humaira immediately hugged me and soon Najma too claiming that she is gonna miss me so much and I just smiled, well I am gonna miss them all too...
