Marriage Arranged

Chapter - |18|

2 months later Zaarah and Faisal come back to India. They were going to Faisal's town before going to Mumbai as Zaarah had shopped for everyone from Dubai.

In these 2 months things changed alot. They both become close to each other and had became best of friends for each other. The Love is yet to enter in their life or maybe it has entered already but they- more specially Zaraah is yet to realise it.

Soon they reached his house. it was late evening so they decided to rest the night away because of jet lag but Zaarah was too much excited so Faisal had to drag her excited self all the way to their room making the other youngers laughed at the sulking Zaarah.

Next morning after breakfast they all were sitting in the combined living room where Zaarah was excitedly giving present to everyone. When it was turn of Faisal's mother she didn't make any move to take the present from Zaarah which make Zaarah a bit uncomfortable.

Zaarah- Uh ammi?

Huda- kya zarurt thi in sabki..

Zaarah- wo mai pehli baar gayi thi to socha-

Huda- tm pehli baar gayi thi paise to Faisal ke hi kharche hue hai na..

Zaarah- am-

Faisal- rehen de ammi agar aapko nahi pasand hai to nahi le or rahi baat paiso ki to Zaarah biwi hai meri, zimmedari hai meri, jab mai apni khushiya, apne dukh apna sab kuch uske saath baatne ko taiyaar hu to chand paiso ke bare me to kuch na kahe.. ye sab uska hi hai wo jo chahe kare aapko aapke monthly kharche ke paise mai bhej deta hun na..

Huda- wah beta.. tum mujhe kahrche ka paisa de kar ahsaan kr rhe ho humpe? Tmhre abba chhod ke gaye hai sab unke-

Faisal- abba jo chhod ke gaye hai wo sab maine Hasnain ke liye chhod diya hai.. aapne kabhi mujhe beta na mana ho per mai apne bete hone ka har farz pura karunga.

Huda- sahi kehte hai sab ki shadi ke baat bete badal jaate hai.. 4 din nahi hue iss ladki ko ghar me aaye hue or tmhre kaan bhar diye..

Faisal- ammi..

He said in a warning tone this time but before anyone could say anything huda stood up and went towards her portion of house. There was silence which broke by a sniff and Faisal look at Zaarah wiping her tears.

Faisal- zaarah..

Zaarah wiped her tears and gave him a forced smile.

Zaarah- it's okay..

Faiz's mother stood up and wrapped her arms around her shoulders.

Farida- koi nahi beta bhabhi ki baaton ko dil se na lagana.. or dekho kitne acche acche tohfe layi ho tum hmare liye..

Aneesa- haa Zaaru beta chalo acchi wali smile do abb..

Zaarah automatically smiled sincerly feeling the warmth of a mother from these two sweet ladies.

Later the mens went to work and Faisal also goes with them to see what's happening in their factory. All ladies were at home and Huda didn't come out of her room since morning. It was lunch time and Faisal's Phupho(sister of Faisal's dad) was visiting them.

They all were sitting in living area munching on some snacks while Zaarah and Adnaan's wife were in kitchen. Huda were also sitting with them half-heartedly.

Yasmeen(faisal's phupho)- bhabhi abb Shifa ne to khushkhabri dedi aapki bahu kab de rhi hai?

Huda- mera beta bahu meri sunte hi kaha hai.. usi se puch lo tum to..

Just then Zaarah come out of kitchen followed by Adeeba.

Yasmeen- Zaarah hume khushkhabri kab de rhi ho?

Zaarah- khushkhabri? Konsi phupho?

Yasmeen- are shadi ko teen mahine ho gaye kab hum dadi banege?

Zaarah look at her with her eyes a little expanded not knowing what to say. A baby? How can she tell them that they didn't even have that relationship between them yet heck they didn't even kissed yet and here she is asking for a baby? Nonetheless she gave her answer smiling awkwardly.

Zaarah- abhi thoda time hai phupho..

Yasmeen- time kyu 3 mahine hi gaye hai shadi ko..

Zaarah-(in mind- 3 mahine hi to hue hai ue aesa kyu bol rahi hai jaise 3 saal ho gaye)

Yasmeen- or dekho Shifa ka to pehle mahina bhi pura ho gaya pregnancy ka tmhre baad shadi hui thi..

Zaarah- phupho unki to love marriage hui thi na.. wo pehle se ek dusre ko jaante samjhte the..

Yasmeen- tmhra nikah bhi to 3 saal pehle hua tha na..

Zaarah- per Faisal ne kabhi mujhse baat nahi ki.. hum abhi ek dusre ko jante bhi nahi hai theek se.. or aese me baby..

Yasmeen- bhabhi ye kya keh rhi hau ladki.. Kahi iska mtbl ye to nahi ki in dono ke beeche miya biwi wala koi rishta hi nahi hai abhi tak..

Everyone looked at Yasmeen then at Zaarah who was becoming beetroot red in embaressment how can someone talk about such thing so easily that too infront of anyone. Aneesa decided to interfere.

Aneesa- baccha jao khana lagao..

Zaarah, Adeeba and Samreen went to kitchen followed by Shifa.

Aneesa- Yasmeen tumhe is tarah se baat nahi krni chahiye thi usse..

Yasmeen- maine galat kya kaha bhabhi..

Aneesa- ye unki life hai wo jo chahe kare tmhe uski personal life me nahi bolna chahiye..

Huda- haa Yasmeen yaha sab uska hi saath dege humari koi nahi sunega.. abb hum paraye or wo apni ho gayi hai.. mujhe to laga tha shadi ke baad ladke badal jate hai yaha to pura khandaan badal gaya..

Huda scoffs and unfortunately Zaarah listen everything who come to call them for lunch. Without making it obvious she told everyone about lunch. After having their lunch Zaarah practically locked herself in his room saying she is feeling feverish and want to have some rest.

The day passed like this and at night when they both went back in room after having dinner he finally asked her about her strange behaviour. She was not ready but one stern order from him and she told him everything. From his phupho's taunt to his mother's word. He was angry after listening her.

Faisal- i'm so sorry Zaaru you have to listen all that shit from my family memebers.. but don't worry i'll make sure that no one will ever be able to say anything to you again.

She hold him by arm when he take steps to go outside the room.

Zaarah- nahi please aap kuch mat kahiyega wrna unko lagega maine aapne kaan bhare hai.. please mai nahi chahti ki meri wajah se aap apni family se kuch kahe..

Faisal- per Zaa-

Zaarah- aapko meri kasam.. please let it be please..

He take few deep breaths to calm himself then turn towards her completely holding her face from his both palms, he drop a kiss on her forehead.

Faisal- thik hai per hum kal subah hi wapas chale ge and no comments..
