CHAPTER #19

Idrees's POV

I don't understand how I'll tell this to johara. Her mother is suffering from alzheimers and she already started forgetting her daughter.
Moreover, we weren't talking to each other after that night of dinner at the restaurant.

That night.....

"abba we went to the restaurant and brought this food for you" I went to his room where he just sat idle

"oh you are back, where johara?" there was a smile on his face "come and sit here"

"Johara's in her room, she is very tired" I sat beside him on the bed

"did you have fun?"

"alhamdulillah yes" I smiled at him

"I am happy that you are trying to make your wife happy by taking her to dinners"

I understood what my father was assuming. He thought that it was me and johara who went to have dinner but that's not the case. I could just smile at him because, however, I was hurt.

"come down, I'll ask shayla to arrange the table"

"I am not hungry beta (child)"

"you may not be hungry but your body is so you need to come down and have dinner"

"you aren't going to listen" he spared a chuckle at me ans joined me on the table.
While shayla was arranging the table with the food, I talked more with dad

"did you talk to ammi?"

"yes I did" he said "she says isra seems quite cheerful now and does not remember the death of her husband"

"that's a great news abba" I almost squealed

"yeah it is but..."

"here's your dinner sir" shayla spoke "enjoy"

"did you have your dinner?" I asked her

"no sir" she said looking down

"join us" there was a huge satisfactory smile on her face.

°°°°
"how was dinner tonight?" I asked johara who was busy in her phone

"it was good" she replied plainly

"you can keep the phone down, I am talking to you" I leaned onto her a bit

"you are the one talking, not me" she stared at me with cold eyes

"at least talk to me what's wrong with you?"

"what the hell is wrong with YOU?" she got up and threw her phone on the bed with anger "I told you so many times not to live in a dream of being my husband, can't you understand what I speak or are you illiterate?" she yelled
