Arhams POV-
I saw Beenish walking away while shouting that she won't marry me. I was hurt watching her behavior, she don't even know the truth and behaving like this. I saw Dua contemplating something. Maybe she is going to reveal the truth. I was going to stop her when she spilled the bean.
Duas POV-
'Ye sab bhai ne mere liye kiya tha' I threw a bomb. Well its not wrong to say that I'm scared. What if they didnt accepted me and threw me out then what about Hassan. What will he do then.
(All this he did was for me)
'Kyaaa, but beta isme aap kaha se
aagye' ammiji was baffled with my involvement in this murder.(What....but how did you came in this)
'Aap log pehle baith jaye fir baat karte hai' I said because I knew aisi baatein khade khade nahi kari jati.
(First, you all sit down then we will talk)
All took a seat and were now waiting for me to speak.
'Uhmmm' I cleared my throat. 'Wo actually hua ye tha ke jab mai Sara appi ke ghar jaati thi unke saath khelne to agar phupha ji rehte to wo hamesha mujhe harass karte' I started with the simplest thing and their reaction was scaring me. Because now is the situation they are reacting like this then what will happen if they came to know that I was.
(So the thing which happened, when I used to go to sara appi's house to play with her, so if phupha ji used to stay at house then he will harrass me.)
'Kya, shamsher bhai tumhe harass karte the' ammi was shocked. I know what is going to happen but I have to do it.
(What, shamsher bhai used to harrass you)
'Jab bhi mai unke ghar jaati wo kisi na kisi bahane mere peeche padte.....I was cutoff by abbu.
'Per beta wo aisa karta kyu tha matlab reason'
(But why would he do this...any reason)
'Wo actually ammi se obsessed the and jab ammi nhi mili to mujhe paane ki koshish kari. Kyuke mai ammi ki tarah dikhti hu' I said. Hassan squeezed my hand to show me that he is here with me. Allah har kisi ko aisa partner naseeb farmaye.
(Wo actually he liked ammi, and when he didn't got her. He used to get me because I look like her)
'Or wo Arham bhai ko bhi maarte the, unhi ke saamne ye sab hota tha. Or wo bolte the ke dekho mard kaise bante hai' I hiccupped. The memory lane of this particular time is bitter for me. No one would want to remember this but they have to.
(And he used to beat arham bhai, this all happened in front of him. And then he used to say, see this is how you become a man)
'fir ek din, unhone dekha ke ghar pe koi nahi hai or bearish ho rahi. To unhone mauka milte hi mere saath'.......I wailed loudly but Hassan held me against his chest. I didnt knew who was shaking more. Me because of crying or him because of anger.
(Then one day, he saw that nobody os at home and it was raining. So he got a chance and he....he..)
'KYAAAA.usne tumhare saath' ammiiji left her sentence incomplete because she knew what I will feel.
(WHAT ..he did that with you..)
I nodded my head, because I was in no position to say something.
Suddenly someone hug me tightly. I saw that it was ammi and ammiji, Chachi was with Beenish.
'Or phir jab agle din bhai ne mujhe aise dekha to unhe pata chal gya ke kya hua hai to unhone mujhe bahar gadi me bithaya or ghar me aag laga di. Phupha ji sharabi bhi the. Us din bhi unhone bohot sharab pi hui thi'
(And then next day bhai saw me in this position and he knew what had happened. So he made me sit in the car and burnt the house. Phupha ji was alcoholic. He drank that day too)
Abbu came and patted my head and suddenly hugged me while I cried on his chest. I wasn't expecting this reaction.
All the family member who were present there came and hugged me tightly. I was happy to see them being supportive. Ammi was fine, I thought maybe she will be shocked and get an attack but alhamdullillah she is fine.
'Beta tum is ghar ki bahadur beti ho, or gandi tum nahi ganda to wo hua hai jisne itni gandi harkat kari. Or beta arham tumne to bahaduri ka kaam kiya. Manta hu ke kisi ko maar dena acchi baat nahi, but ek baccha us time pe kya karta' dadajaan said and patted arham Bhai's back.
(Beta, you are our strongest daughter. You aren't dirty, but he is dirty who did this with you. And arham you did the right thing. I know that we shouldn't kill anyone but what would a child do at that time)
'Or ha beta, bhale hi beenish ne mana kar diya but shadi tumhari usi se hogi' Rashid mamu said.
(And yes, even if beenish said no, you will marry her only)
Finally I saw Arham bhai smiling.
At noon.
We all were chatting and laughing but soon everything turned gloomy. Because Beenish entered in lounge with her suitcase.
'Kaha jaa rahi ho beta' chachi asked. We all were shocked with her behavior.
(Where are you going)
'Ammi mai London jaa rahi hu, mujhe scholarship mili hai. So mai apni padhayi complete karke hi aaungi' she declared.
(Ammi, I'm going to london, I got a scholarship. So I'll complete my studies and then come back)
We all were shocked with her descision because she was going to get married next month and now she is running away from this. How could she do this to Arham bhai. I was going to put some sense in her when I saw arham bhai nodding his head in no. He was telling me not to do anything and went away. I saw a tear leaked out of his eyes.
'Beta per tumhe sach nahi pa..ammi pata ho ya nahi. Wo ek murderer hai or mai ek murderer ke saath nahi reh sakti. Kal ko agar usne mujhe hi ya mere bacche ko maar diya' to she shouted.
(Beta but you don't know the whole truth....
Ammi I do or do not know. But he is a murderer and I can't stay with a murderer. What if he murders me or my child.)
We were shocked with her behavior, she used to be silent, prim proper girl and now she is shouting.
'Mai jaa rahi hu, aana hoga to aajaungi allah hafiz' she didnt even bid proper good bye and went away.
(I'm going. If I want to come thrn I'll come back)
We were tired with this drama so we went to our room for rest. In all this tension I forgot to buy a gift for Hassan because tomorrow is his birthday. Maybe I should surprise him with..Uhm you know..
