Murtasim khan , entering Haveli early morning after three days business  trip of Karachi.
With all his glory and strict aura ,taking long steps he reach to his room, opening buttons of coat and throwing it on bed , goes to freshen up and gets ready for breakfast. On reaching table  he wish everyone and sit on the chair near  Maa begum, not finding his Chand on table he asks..

Murtasim: where is Meerab, she knew I am going to come today , and I need tea made by her in morning..?

Waqas chacha: beta she is with haya,  as she is not well , taking care of her.

Murtasim got up from chair and moved towards haya's room , knocking the room , he entered when haya asked him to come, he entered and found Meerab helping haya to get up..

Murtasim: haya how are you feeling now.?

Haya : I am fine, as Meerab was taking care of me.

Murtasim: ( looking at Meerab ) I didn't get my morning tea..

Meerab : ( not looking at him, as feeling shy) ji I will bring now.

Haya :Meerab take rest and ask someone else to make it for him, as you are tired , you were with me whole night.

Murtasim ( didn't like interference) : Let it be I don't need tea ,you rest ( turned towards door to exit the room)

Meerab ( immediately): NO, I am fine will bring it to your room.

Murtasim: with smile , ok I am waiting, he moves out to his room.

Haya: is it necessary to follow him like a doll, you also can have sometimes your wish, I understand no one should disobey him but  sometimes give yourself priority.

Meerab : don't think so much , I am more than happy to do things for him, you take care of your health, smiles and move out towards kitchen.

In kitchen she finds her mamma doing preparation for lunch with two other helpers , she makes tea for Murtasim and moves to his room.

She knocks and enters the room after getting his permission, he was continously gazing her with love and when she forwarded him cup of tea , he came out of Meerabland..

Meerab : tea for you

Murtasim: how are you?

Meerab : ( not looking into his eyes) I am fine.

Murtasim: tell me truth

Meerab : please forgive  Naushad bhaijaan, he had no intentions to disrespect you, he was just giving his point of view about my education, and may be he is right , I am not the one for you

Murtasim ( grabbed her hand and move very close to her , his eyes were spitting fire) : you know what Noone I mean Noone has right to talk about you and mainly about US, it was last wish of my baba jaan to see you as Meerab Murtasim khan, how dare he to challenge me about your upbringing as everyone in this family know that what you are to me.

Meerab: but you should get a life partner who is smart, educated and can deal with people like Maa begum does,  someone compatible to you , someone like Hay...

She couldn't complete her sentence as Murtasim hold her mouth to not speak further..

Murtasim: this was last time you tried to take my name with someone else , never do that again, I can never think of anyone other than you and though you don't speak anything but your eyes show volumes...

Meerab nods in agreement looking down as she was feeling shy and couldn't deny about her feelings for him..

Murtasim: And about Naushad , I will forgive him, and ask him to re-enter Haveli, but on one condition..

Meerab: what..?

Murtasim: give me your beautiful smile.

Meerab smiled and then moved out towards kitchen.

Murtasim was looking towards the door where Meerab went, and was thinking that ,it was haya who manipulated her , but can't do anything as haya is family and above that a friend who always disagrees with him in almost everything, still he shares a healthy relationship with her , but when it is about Meerab , he always make sure that she should  never manipulate meerab against him.

Now his next move is to get haya married soon , so that he can marry meerab and make sure no one can snatch her from him..

In his family it is tradition that girls are married in khandan only , so only option for haya is Naurez , he needs to discuss with him soon about this..
