Noor's pov

I served him his lunch and I sat to his right and served myself. I wanted to ask him about the Husna but I didn't even know how to.

I played with my fork until it made a loud sound then I stopped. "Why aren't you eating?" Zayn asked.

"Nothing. I'm eating" I said shoving spaghetti inside my mouth. He was almost done and I struggled to say anything. I looked at him as he was about to leave. Okay it was now or never.

"Zayn?" I called as he turned to leave. "Hmm" he turned to face me.

"Who is Husna?" I asked. The expression on his face changed immediately. "She is my cousin. I'm sure you met her at the wedding" he answered.

Of course he was going to think I was talking about the Husna. His cousin.
"I know but I'm not talking about her"

He raised his eyebrows in confusion.
I moved closer to him and showed him the comment with my phone.

"That could be anyone trying to cause confusion" he said. I looked up at him taken aback. So he wants me to ignore all this. He turned to leave but stoped again.

"Get ready by 7. We are going to my parents house for dinner" he said before he left.

I carried the dishes and took them to the kitchen to wash.  I was lost in thoughts and a plate slipped from my hand and crashed on the kitchen floor making a loud noise.

What is wrong with you Noor? I scolded myself mentally as I bent to pick the broken pieces of the plate. I felt a sharp pain in my fingers. The hell? I just got a cut and blood was ozzing.

"Get up. Sit here" I heard his husky voice say and I raised my head. He was hold a first aid kit. I sat down on one of the high stools in the kitchen island.

"How did this happen?" He asked cleaning my wound. I opened my mouth to speak but I closed it immediately. Should I tell him that I was overthinking and the plate slipped from my hand and broke then I went to carry the broken pieces without protection. No.

"A maid will be arriving tomorrow to help around" he said after I refused to answer his question. "Okay" i replied before he finished dressing my wound.

He picked the broken pieces of the plate and dumped it in the trash before he walked away.

He behaves like a whole different person from the person that I had lunch with. Why are things so freaking awkward between us???

I walked back to our room and just then, I received another comment that says 'you two look good. But it could have looked better with Husna not you' 

I switched off my phone and threw it on the bed. Who was this Husna????
This is my first day at my husband's house for crying out loud.

**************

It was six already and I was getting ready to leave for his parents house. I wore a greenish blue lafaya and a pair of vine flats.

I walked downstairs and I saw Zayn wearing a white kaftan. He looked up at me when I made my presence known. It took him a couple of seconds before he looked away.

"Shall we go?" he asked. "yes" i nodded and we left.

"Noorrr" Amira came and hugged me the moment she saw me. "Heyy" I said.

"You know she is not here to see you right?" I heard Aaryan say. I laughed and Amira glared at him before she hugged Zayn.

"Hey sis" Aaryan said to me and I smiled. I couldn't see their mother nor father around so I asked. "Where is umma and Abba?"

"Umma is in the kitchen and Abba is in his study" Amira said and just then umma walked out of the kitchen.

"Good evening umma" I greeted. She answered me in a low voice not even caring to smile a bit but she smiled immediately she saw Zayn.

I was still standing there when Amira came and took my hand. "You should see Abba now" she said before dragging me to god knows where.

We climbed the stairs and arrived at a large living room where Abba was seated. I squatted on the floor and greeted him.

He looked really happy to see me and his smile grew wider when Zayn joined us. "How are you my dear?" He asked.

"I'm fine Abba Alhamdulillah" i replied. "Masha Allah" he said before Zayn came and sat next to him.

I stood up from my position as Amira dragged me to her room. For crying out loud stop dragging me everywhere.

I winced in pain as she roughly touch the finger I had cut. "What happened? Are you okay?" She asked immediately we stepped into her room.

"Yes I'm okay" I said thankfully it didn't start bleeding. "How did you get hurt?" She asked.

"A plate slipped from my hands and it broke" I told her.

"I need to ask you something"  I said before she could speak. "Yes?"

"Who is Husna? And no not your cousin" I added before she says it that she is their cousin.

"I know only one Husna and that's our cousin Noor" she answered. "So she and your brother were dating?" I asked and Amira looked shocked. Probably wondering how I knew.

"No...it's umm-" she was interrupted by a knock on the door. "Aaryan what is it?" Amira asked. He opened the door and he leaned sideways with a smile on his face.

"Should I tell Umma that you guys are eating here?" He asked crossing his hands on his chest. "We are coming" I said to him and he left.

I turned to Amira and she stood up immediately. "Tell me" I said. "We will talk later" she said and dragged me out of the room.

Okay

Is it boring that Husna is the main subject for the past few chapters? Please let me know because I feel like it will be too much.
