"Where are they? They should have been out till now." I said constantly looking at the airport door for Taya abbu and tayi ammi. After talking to Abbu I told him to call them up but not to tell them about me . I wanted to surprise them. So here we are waiting for them at the airport to pick them up. We all are here except Zayn ,Khala ammi and kids. They are at the mansion to welcome everyone. We thought to move to the mansion for some days so that everyone could live comfortably. I wanted to bring kids here to welcome their 2nd set of grandparents but they tagged along with Zayn. Apparently, they were not having enough time with their dadda nowadays as everyone wants to be with them. So today when we were leaving in cars for the airport and they saw Zayn is not coming with them , they started their drama of wanting to be with their Dadda.
I shook my head smiling. They are so dramatic just like their Dadda.
I looked at the exit and finally saw tayi ammi and Taya abbu. They saw Ali and walked towards him. I went and tapped on their shoulders from the back . They turned and were shocked. I had tears in my eyes and they were just looking at me.
"Ab aap mujhe gale bhi nahi lagayenge..itna naraz hai aap dono mujhse?" I said with tears.
Tayi ammi hugged me to her chest and cried hard.
" Meri bacchi.meri gudiya.meri shehzadi" she kept crying and kissing my hairs and forehead.
I wiped her tears and kissed her cheek and shook my head at her . I looked at Taya abbu who was also crying looking at me longingly.
I just hugged him and cried on his chest. He engulfed me into his fatherly warmth.
I wiped his tears and he kissed my forehead.
Tayi ammi was about to speak but Abbu interrupted.
"Bhaijan Assalamualaikum"
"Walykumassalam mere bhai" Taya abbu replied hugging his brother. I looked around and found ammi and tayi ammi hugging and crying as well.I had never seen such a bond between brothers and their wives. These 4 people lived in harmony for so many years and somewhere because of me they were apart for so long. I started feeling guilty but soon felt a hand on my shoulder engulfing me into a side hug.
I looked at my side and saw Ali smiling at me. I smiled placing my head on his chest and we both looked at our parents.
I sighed and lowly said alhamdulillah and heard another alhamdulillah from Ali.
,,......We entered the house and i called out for Hania and Zayan.
They came running down the stairs with Zayn following them calling out to not run and hurt themselves.
They came to me and i introduced them to Taya abbu and ammi as Dada and Dadi. They hugged and kissed both of them and started crying hard. Everyone had tears. We all cried and consoled each other and then I escorted Taya abbu and tayi ammi to their room. They need rest . I saw how weak and pale they look . They need care. And I will surely take care of them................
A week later
"I want to sleep with Dadu and Nanu" Zayn said.
"I want to sleep with Dadi ,Gul Jani and Nani"
Hania said.
I looked at them and then at the elders. They smiled and started planning on how to sleep.
Hania and Zayan can be a hand full sometimes while sleeping. All elders will get tired. It's not good for their health.
I tried to deny but none of them listened to me.
Ladies took Hania and Zayn left with his Dadu and Nanu.
I , Zayn and Ali looked at each other and laughed because elders literally ignored us and were so excited like teenagers having sleepover.
"Well let's have our own fun. Let's call Haroon bhai and Manal appi too . We will have a blast." Ali said.
I looked at Zayn and he looked happy. So I also nodded.,..............
After 6 months
I have been living my perfect life since Taya abbu and tayi ammi came here. It's already been 6 months and we didn't even realise. Everyone has bonded so well with each other that it overwhelms me . We live like the perfect family that we are.
Alhamdulillah alhamdulillah
Thankyou so much Allah.
I thanked Allah looking at the sky.I was feeling a little low because everyone is leaving today. Ali has been handling his business from here but now he needs to leave and abbu ,ammi are also going with him as abbu is also needed there. Taya abbu also offered help so he and tayi ammi are also leaving with them.
"Monkey..Haaye you are so sad that I am leaving. Do not worry we will come whenever we get time." I heard and turned to my side to see Ali.
I punched on his shoulder.
"Just please know that I am just a call away. Please let me be a brother to you in your difficult times . "
I looked at him.
"You have always been an amazing brother. I am sorry "
He hummed. "Okay let's not be sad. I can't handle a crying monkey now." He said and I chuckled punching his stomach this time.
"Ugh.. I am going to talk to ammi abbu about her" I looked at him surprised and excited. He was caressing his neck looking here and there.
I pinched his cheeks asking him to atleast show me her picture.
But that brat denied saying I will directly see her face to face. Picture won't do justice to that hoor .
I can see my brother whipped.
He looked into space dreamily.
I smiled and sent a prayer to always keep them happy and together..............
" No running here and there" I said to the kids after getting them ready.
"Yes mamma" and they ran away calling Dadda.
I shook my head looking at them.
We all are going for dinner as I got promoted so it's my treat.
I wanted ammi abbu and everyone here but they couldn't because eventually Ali is getting married finally.
Masha AllahSo we will be going there next month.
The wedding is at the end of next month. Ammi wanted me to go now itself to help her with the preparations but as I got promoted recently I couldn't take a leave so soon. So we will be leaving 15 days before the wedding and stay 5 days after the wedding.
Ammi always video calls me or sends me photos for my opinion on everything.I just want to go there and meet my to be bhabhi . That Ali has even restricted mamma to send me her photos. That annoying monkey ugh !!!
"Maham beta, we are waiting. Come fast beta" I got ready quickly and went downstairs.
And soon we left for the restaurant.
