      Shehnaaz was woken up by 8 am with bi-jaan sitting by her on bed beside her and reciting Holy Quran like usual. As soon as bi jaan got to know that her Shehnaaz is here she didn't waste time and decided to see her after fajar prayers, since she was sleeping so bi jaan decided to just recite some surahs before she wakes up

"Salam bi-jaan" Shehnaaz spoke out in her morning voice trying to open her eyes because of direct sunlight in her room

"Walaikumsalam, meri bachi" Bi jaan close off holy quran and kept it respectfully on side table before taking off her glasses also to place kiss on Shehnaaz's forehead as she moved to face bijaan

"Kese ho ap?" She asked caressing soft hair of her lovely "Itni raat ko yahan kese ana hua?" Bi jaan added since it was very usual of her

"Hum theek hai aur bas ese dil kiya ane ka kyun nahi asakte?" Shehnaaz joked sitting up straight on bed smiling at bi-jaan

"Ary bikul asakte ho adhi raat ko ayo ya din ko hum toh bas ese he puch rahe the wese yeh bataye apke shohar kahan hai?" Bi jaan asked

Bi-jaa noticed change of expressions when she mentioned sidharth in conversation which made her doubt something. Bi-jaan has been noticing these kind of things within them since very long now and somewhere she knew her doubt is right about them not having happy marriage at all

"Bas hum aye unko kaam hote hain bhut toh hume socha unka routine disturb hogaye ga isliye unko offer bhi nahi kiya bas kaha hume drop krden" She spoke out with small smile, it was half truth half lie about situation

"Chale yeh bhi theek hai, jaldi jaye ready hokr aye neeche nashte ki table set karwa rahe hain aj sab sath mein karen ge nashta" Bi jaan smiled taking her holy Quran with her as she walked out of shehnaaz's room

Shehnaaz walked downstairs after getting ready by 9:30, which is time when everyone wakes up. She went inside kitchen before going to dining hall to make her own coffee and took it with her. She was sipping coffee normally on her way until she heard very familiar deep voice behind her which made her stoped more like froze. There was no away he's here that also this early

    She turned her head back little to look at him behind, he was talking with Zain and didn't realise she was standing in front of him. She turned her head back and bite her lower lip in nervousness, how's she's gonna face him. This will be very awkward

"Shehnaaz?" Zain was one to recognise that woman walking in front of them was non other than his own sister. Shehnaaz shut her eyes cause she was thinking to runaway before she find herself in situation where she has to talk to him

     She turn around slowly to look at them and their eyes met instantly, his heart skip a beat and wondered how didn't he recognise these beautiful hazel eyes before, he really can look into them and never get tired

"Asalam-o-alaikum" He greeted her, his gaze was different today almost as if he never wants to look away from her

"Walaikumsalam" She broke their eye-contact and look at Zain, who raised eyebrow at very simple exchange of greetings between couple with no smiles and all but let go since it's not his place to say anything

     Sidharth was bewitched by how alluring she was looking in black simple suit and black dupatta wrapped around her. Her hair were straighten and let open with thick natural lashes , rosy cheeks and pinkish lips. He has never noticed her like this and really regrets why didn't he she's an absolute perfection

    He saw her walking right after Zain went inside dinning hall. He grabbed her hand before she could leave taking her by surprise

"How long until you forgive me?" He asked, using force to pull her closer him. She looked at him with wide eyes, why was he being so weird and why does he really care just now she thought

"Apko farq parta hai?" She asked

    Her heart beat got faster when he intertwined their finger while looking at her with very much loving and soft look, like he's so much in love with her and will do anything for her. He will if she ask him to

"Parta haina meri jaan isliye puch rahen hain" He spoke. She couldn't help but blood rush through her cheeks because of his gaze that was set on her

"K-kyun?" She tried to pull back her hand which he was intertwined but he won't let her do that, she totally ignored butterflies those danced when he called her jaan

    She remind herself about term called self respect and literally pushed his hand away with all energy she had, he also didn't try to fight her more and let her break their hands apart

"Hume apse ek zarori baat puchni hai and I want zero lies" His tone got serious as he spoke out these words

"Kya baat?" She asked even tho she was bit nervous about what he's gonna ask her

"You won't dare to lie okay?" He moved closer her intimidating her, she gulped getting more anxious about what's he really gonna ask and took steps back unconsciously as he was getting closer

    She lifted her doe eyes to look at him innocently nervousness dripping from her face as her back hits cold wall of manor. He kept hand right beside her head on wall and leaned closer her face, her heart beat was rising second by second. She was scared if he's gonna threaten her about something or ask her about yesterday why she blamed it all on him

"Shehnaaz" His voice was low and deep as he looks into her eyes directly. This was new for both of them this much closeness proximity and the way his hot breath was fanning across her face she felt like she will faint anytime

"10 February ki raat ko kya ap bi jaan se milne haveli ayi thi burqa phen kar?" He asked even tho he knows answer he wants to hear it from her
