"Dekhiye ye tasveere... Lucknow k nawab raat k 11 bje apni begum k Saath dikhe ek chote se momo stall pr..... Tasveere dekhne se lagta h ki dono bhot khush h ek dusre k Saath... Hum dua krte h ki Allah inhe khush rakhe or inhe barkat navaze". The reporter spoke in the background."ye dekh... Kya haal krlia h tere bete ne.. Dekh... Joru ka gulaam ban gya h.... Pata nhi kis manhoos ghadi m uss behaya ladki ka nikkah karvaya mene Sidharth se". Baba sahab screamed on zubiya ji.
"mere upar cheekhne ki zarurat nhi h... Mene nhi paala h usse.... Tumne mera bacha mujhe paalne hi kam diya h... Mere upar ilzaam daalne ka sochna bhi mt... Nikkah tumne karwaya... Usko tabiyat tumne di..... Ab mujhe kuch bolne ki zarurat nhi h samjh aai.. Or kya galat h apni biwi k Saath bahar Jaane m.... Khud to bekaar shauhar ho hi agar vo acha h to usko Rehne do na...". Zubiya ji screamed back on him leaving him off guard.
" teri itni himmat badtameez aurat ". He furiously walked toward her but before he could do something Sidharth's voice stopped him.
" baba sahab... Kya kar rahe h aap ". Sidharth and Shehnaaz both hurriedly came downstairs.
"aaao aao tumhari hi kami thi.. Aajao tumbhi..... Ye dekho... Ye dekho apni kartut". As soon as they came down he immediately held Sidharth elbow harshly and pointed toward the TV.
"ye dekho.... Yaha m tumhe nawab banane k liye kya kuch nhi kr raha hu..... Or ye h tumhari harqatein hnnn..... Ye karoge tum nawab banne k Baad..... Boloooo....". He screamed on Sidharth.
"baba sahab hum bss thodi der k liye bahar nikle the bss". Shehnaaz said.
"tu chup bilkul chup.... Ye sab teri vajeh se hua h.... Manhoos ladki.... Pata nhi kya jaadu kiya h mere bete pr...zeher h tu zeher...". Baba sahab spat and for the very first time a tear left her eye hearing him.
"BABA SAHABBBB..... isme uski kya galati h..... M lekar gya tha usko bahar.... Uski galti nhi h.... Or baba sahab ye ladki biwi h meri....Izzat h meri... Or m kisiko ijazat nhi deta hu meri izzat k baare m kuch bolne ki...". Sidharth growled. Shehnaaz looked at him as she tried to save her, it was a huge thing for her he took her blame over himself and she was feeling emotional now.
"tum Iss ladki k liye mujhse zabaan lada rahe ho hnn... Iske liye.... Huh... Jb asli rang dikhaayegi na ye tb pata chalega tumhe..."
"or ek Baat Yaad rakhna Sidharth... Nawab ho tum... Tumhari hesiyat kya h Yaad rakho.. Vrna m bhul jaaunga ki tum meri aulaad ho" with that baba sahab left from there in anger.
"nhi nhi mere bache... Sana rona nhi h..." Zubiya ji immediately walked toward Shehnaaz and held her. Hearing her Sidharth immediately turned back only to find his begum standing there with tear filled eyes.
"ammi mene kya kiya h essa.... Vo har baar mujhe hi kyu bolte h...". This was a moment where she couldn't be her usual strong self, everytime he just blame her for everything, he curses her, threatened her, talk ill about her but she always ignored all that but how long could she have ignored all this.
" tchh.. Tujhe pata h na vo aadmi kaisa h... Jb m apni zindagi k 28 saal nikaal sakti hu esse hi.. To fir tu to bhot strong h... Chal roona nhi ab...". Zubiya ji wiped her tears.
"Sidharth Shehnaaz ko upar room m lekr Jaao... M tumdono ka nashta upar hi bhijwaati hu". Hearing Zubiya ji Sidharth held her hand tightly and start dragging her upstairs again.
The way he was dragging she felt he was angry on her because his veins were clearly visible to her.
"Sidharth mujhe nhi pata tha ki media m khabar jaayegi"
"Sidharth suniye tooo"
"Sidharth sunoo" as soon as they entered their room he slammed on the nearby wall making her hiss.
"Sidharth mujheee..."
"aaj k Baad mujhe tumhari aankhon m aansu nhi dikhne chahiye kisi or ki vajeh se.... Samjh aaya.....". He told her sternly. Hearing him she just looked at his face, he looked so angry.
"samjh m aaya tumko..... Or apne aapko blame krna band karo.... Jb galti nhi h.. To ladna seekho.... Chahe Saamne koi bhi kyu na ho....". He spoke looking into her eyes. They were standing so close that their nose was almost touching each other.
He just loosened his grip on her and moved a little back.
" Sidharth ". She called him.
" hmmmm" he hummed
"sorry.. Meri vajeh kal..." before she could complete he kept his finger over her lips preventing her to speak.
"tumhari vajeh se kuch nhi hua h....galti meri thi jiski saza di thi tumne or mere liye saza nhi thi... Meri zindagi ek bhot khoobsurat raat thi vo....". He told her and without a word she just hugged him tightly clenching his shirt tightly in her hands.
He too hugged her back feeling peace in her arms.

" abbu Paani ". Rozal hurriedly took the glass from Aiman ji's hand and gave it him making Aiman ji cry.
"mujhe Raheed ko dekhna h". Junaid ji spoke after a while shocking everyone.
