Saad's pov:
I looked at the woman crying in my arms, her sobs wrecking her body and making me worried. No, scratch that. I looked at the 'lady' crying in my arms. I didn't want to get killed by her. At least not when I just escaped ammi's shot at trying her gun at me.
Sighing, I rubbed her arm gently, wondering what ridiculous things I was even thinking about. This wasn't the time to decide whether to call her a woman or a lady!
"Accha ab bas karo. Aur kitna rogi?" Dipping my head down slightly, I murmured quietly.
(That's enough. How much more will you cry?)
"Until- I- I don't feel better." Sniffing, she croaked out before snuggling her face in my neck, her hands fisting my shirt.
"You need to rest too, Atifa." I ran my fingers through her hair worriedly.
"I'm resting."
"Like this?"
"Y- yeah. Do- do you have any problem?" Pushing herself back slightly, she looked up at me through her moist lashes.
"No, but-"
"Then let me be." Keeping her head back in my neck and tightening her hold around me, she continued to shed tears silently, making me sigh as I wrapped my arms around her comfortingly.
Leaning my head back on her pillow, I let my tense muscles relax. It was a hectic day and I was tired.
Soon enough, I could feel her body relaxing in my arms before she snuggled closer to my chest, her even breath tickling my neck.
Looking down at her, a small smile tugged at the corner of my lips, she was definitely a stubborn cute-
"Oh, she's asleep." A feminine voice brought me out of my thoughts, making me look up, startled.
"Y- yeah." Trying to adjust her slightly away from me, I replied to the nurse standing in front of us.
"I- it's okay. Let her sleep. It's the medicinal side effects." Smiling slightly, she picked up her clipboard.
"Yeah but it will be uncomfortable for her. C- can you help me lay her down?" Unable to meet her gaze, I replied, suddenly feeling hot.
"Okay."
._._._.
"You have got to be kidding me!" I pulled my phone away from my ear due to bhai’s high-pitched voice.
"If I remember correctly, you have been using the same line every time I tell you something about us."
"Yeah but I can't help it! You actually found them? Like-"
"God, aur kitna pareshaan karenge aap uss bechare ko? Wo already itna pareshaan lag raha hai. Laiye, phone mujhe dijiye." I could hear bhabi's faint voice from the background. "Assalamualaikum Saad!"
(God, how much are you going to annoy that poor guy? He already seems so tense. Give me your phone.)
"Waalaikumussalam bhabi. How are you?" Shifting from one foot to another, I looked around the hospital lawn.
"Haa haa, tum hi baat kar lo ab us se. Waise bhi saari masaledaar khabre to tumhe chahiye hoti haina sabse pehle?" I could hear bhai's annoyed murmur faintly, making me smile.
(Yeah yeah, talk to him yourself. You want to know all the spicy news yourself first, right?)
"What did you say?"
"I said that when you are done talking to him, hand over the call to me too." Hearing his hurried reply, I suppressed my chuckle. They were not going to change, were they? I wasn't complaining though.

Spiritual(EDITED) "Ok ma'am, maybe you are right. But what do you want from me? Why have you even kidnapped me?" I glared at her, annoyed. I can't believe I'm agreeing with her right now. "Oh nothing much baby boy, I just want you to get married to my daugh...
