The Malik Haweli was chirpy with all the youngsters and elders talking with eachother on the breakfast table leaving two people, Haider and Izzah who ate quietly.
"Izzah, bacchey college nahi jana hai kya?" Kamaal asked.
"Nahi, aaj mera mann nahi hai chote tayaabbu."
"Kis Khushi main nahi jaogi tum college?" Ezaz questioned sternly.
"Voh bass nahi hai mera mann!"
"Is lehze main mujhse baat mat karna agli dafa se Izzah! Choti ho toh apni haisiyat main raha karo!" Ezaz growled.
"Bhaijaan humari zindagi humey apne tarike se jeene ka haq hai. Behtar hoga ki aap zyada dakhalandazi na kiya karein. Choti bacchi nahi rahe ab hum." With this Izzah haughtily left her half eaten breakfast and dining room.
"Chachijaan Izzah ne accha nahi kiya Ezaz se is tarah baat karkey. Ezaz toh sirf uske liye fikramand hai." Aabaan told supporting his cousin and bestfriend Ezaz whose mood turned sour.
"Najaane kya ho gaya hai is ladki ko. Din par din badtameez hoti jaa rahi hai." Fatima sighed looking at the half eaten breakfast as she thought about badtameezi of her daughter which was growing day after day.

Izzah went to her room and closed the door angrily as she tried to calm herself down but soon found herself dialling her best friend's number,
"Hello Izz, ab konsa drama ho gya Teri haweli pe?"
"Bushra main tumhe kya hi bataon. Vapas bhaijaan ne sabke saamne mujh par chillaya kyunki maine college aane se inkaar kar diya!"
"Uff! Main toh kehti hi hoon tumhari jo yeh family hai na bohot hi orthodox aur controlling hai Izz. In logon ki baton par zyada gaur na kiya karo aur ye batao Sahil se baat Hui?"
"Sahil se toh meri pichle dou din se baat nahi hui."
"Haww! Tumne use call karne ka try nahi kiya?"
"Nahi... Magar kyun?"
"Arey pagal, apne boyfriend ko toh call karna hi chahiye na!"
"Yaar Bushra usey boyfriend na bolo... Tumhare kehne pey uska proposal accept kiya hai aur usne kaha hai ki vo nikaah ki baat ke liye apne ammi-abba ko bhejega."
"Arey toh nikaah se pehle ek dusre ko thoda jaano pehchaano ki sidhe qubool hai?" Bushra laughed from the other side.
"Magar tum janti ho meri family main ye sab nahi chalta aur kahin na kahin mera dil jawaab nahi de raha hai iske liye..."
"Toh dil ko manao pagal ladki! Aur main thodi keh rahi hoon uski bahon main jhul jhao... Vaise idea bura nahi hai par tum thodi old-fashioned ho toh rehne hi do."
Izzah hummed in agreement.
True Izzah was still little purane khayalat wali in this matter even though she loved the idea that she was the one who was taking lead of her life.

"Haider Bhai, zara sa ye file check kar lein."
Haider hummed to Ezaz words.
Haider was an introvert who liked to keep his emotions to himself and expressed less. Being the eldest he was protective of all the cousins but everyone feared him due to this too.
He was very responsible from a young age hence was now leading the big company 'Malik Enterprises'.
No one really liked to mess with him without any reason and he liked it that way.
Whereas Aabaan, Riza, Aadab, Arhaan and Ezaz were close to eachother due to their similarity in age.
Riza and Aadab were married to two brothers, Ahmed and Iqbal who lived together and hence they were now more closer to each other.
"Ezaz, tumhe sabke saamne uspar nahi chillana chahiye tha is tarah." Haider spoke after few minutes.
Ezaz scowled in response and shrugged, "Aap har waqt uski tarafdaari mat kiya karein bhaijaan. Vo aapki is humdardi ke layak nahi hai."
"Ezaz," Haider warned not liking the way Ezaz was talking about his fiance.
"Maaf karein bhaijaan magar mujhey bilkul afsos nahi hai apne alfaazon par. Izzah bigadti hi ja rahi hai uski us saheli ke saath reh reh kar. Mujhey toh dar hai kisi din aapke aitbaar ka galat fayda na uthaye woh!"
"Aisa kuch nahi hoga." Haider told quietly.
"Allah karein aap sahi ho aur main galat lekin uski harkaton ko dekhkar yahi lag raha hai ki vo aapko galat saabit kar degi."
Haider tried not to dwell much on Ezaz words as he trusted his amanat but somewhere in his heart he knew she was with wrong company and let it go as she was being very adamant now-a-days and was not ready to listen a word against Bushra.

"Bushra, magar ye sahi hoga?"
"Haan meri jaan, jao aur jakar us resturant main Sahil se milo. Vo tumhara intezaar kar raha hai"...
