Two years have passed but everything remained the same.... Meerab quietly followed Murtasim who was holding a sleeping Meesam on his shoulder.... "...As-salamu-alaikum.." Meerab greeted Maa Begam, who was not too happy with the sudden appearance of her daughter-in-law.... Haya stood there stunned at the sight of Meerab and the child in Murtasim's arms.... "...whose baby is this?.." Haya questioned, her mind still unable to believe what she was witnessing right before her eyes....
"... My daughter, Meesam... the heir of Khan family..." Murtasim declared with pride in his voice as he slightly patted the back of Meesam, who was in deep sleep.... "...I don't believe you..." Haya stated... "...I have to feed her in sleep otherwise she will wake up again...." Meerab told Murtasim as she did not want to be a part of this conversation.... He carefully passed Meesam into Meerab's arms and gestured her to head to their bedroom "..take her inside.." Murtasim said....
"No, wait" Haya tried to interrupt, however, was ignored by Meerab.... "DON'T" Murtasim shut her .... but she continued, "... How do you know it's your child? She ran away with Rohail... this child could be that cheap —..." when Murtasim stopped her in the middle, "Don't you dare utter a single word about my daughter from your filthy mouth!.... I tell you Haya, this time, I swear to God, I will not rip off your tongue, I-WILL-BURY-YOU-ALIVE!...and I mean it...now go, and pack up every filthy thing that belongs to you because you will be living in the village for the rest of your life..... I do not want to see your presence in this house...." he turned to his mother and clarified, " ... I am sending her to village.... if you have any objection with that then let me know right now, I will move out of this house with my wife and daughter as I don't want her anywhere near my Meerab and Meesam".... Maa Begam became tense as she lost her words...
"... Why should I go? She was the one who cheated you and everyone... She was the one who got Maryam engaged with Malik Jubair in the restaurant .... I am the eye witness.... I have the proof in my phone...She was th— " Haya stopped in the middle when she realized what she blurted out in excitement.... Both Murtasim and Maa Begam were in utter shock to learn about her confession.... ".. you knew about Malik Jubair from day one?... yet you did not even bother to notify me or Murtasim about it... forget about us, you did not even bother to inform Maryam about it... my daughter had literally begged me to bring you back from the village because she was so concerned about you .... and this is what she received in return?" Maa Begam was trying to consume the bitter truth.... "...no, I mea—" Haya felt a sharp blow on her left cheek as she stood in front of Maa Begam while holding her red cheek that was burning with the sudden sensation of smack.... "... not a single word, I am giving you 30 mins to pack EVERYTHING that belongs to you .... you are going to your grandma's house.... you do not belong to this family anymore...." Maa Begam strictly instructed, not ready to listen to anything anymore....
" ..Murtasim, please lis— ", Haya grasped the left arm of Murtasim from behind as he turned around to leave, when she found herself receiving another strike on her face... "...HOW-DARE-YOU-TOUCH-ME- AGAIN ? ..." Murtasim warned her... "...You know what? I am the bloody shameless here!...I have been shamelessly sympathizing with you as a human ... but Meerab was right. She always warned me to even stop sympathizing with you because you were NEVER TO ACCEPT the fact that I DO NOT LOVE YOU!... Forget about love, YOU are NOT even worthy of my sympathy .... I may lose my position as a husband, I know, I am not worthy of her love or respect anymore, but YET she will always be a part of me... I am accountable for my own act of not trusting her and sympathizing with you...so I deserve this from her.... If it means she will hate me for the rest of her life, then so be it.... But I will make sure I repent for the rest of my life knowing that she will always be near me but not with me.... whereas, YOU have ALWAYS been a nobody and will always remain a NOBODY to me!.... and you know what, I don't even feel bad for you anymore...I will make sure I never get to see your face again.... Go-to-hell", Murtasim concluded
