Qasim
He made his way through the tangled themed garden , Inaya looking around with sheer joy.
"Baba! Thats her tower!!" She said jumping up and down, her tiny hand clasped in his .
"Yea , I know" he laughed ,
"Its also a jumping castle" he informed her , and nudged her forward
"Get your hair done and then you can go play as much as you want ."
She hurried inside in her purple summer dress.
He looked around a little proud of himself , the garden was lined with lanterns and purple balloons.
The guests were set to arrive in a couple of hours, so he still had some time to get a few things done from work.

Rukhsar
She place the last flowers in Inayas braids as the 5 year old told her excitedly about everything she had seen outside.
"Zoraiz hasto play with me" she said , and Rukhsar smiled at her words ,
"He's very small right now , Inaya" she said
"He can't possibly play in the jumping castle with you" she reminded her as she pressed a kiss to her head .
Inaya pouted ,
"I knoww" she moaned.
"Acha abh chulo bahar , mein Zoraiz ko dekh kar aarahi hun" she told her.
She made her way towards her room and stopped short at the sight infront of her .
Qasim was swaying Zoraiz while her son cooed happily.
"Mein Zoraiz ko tayaar karne aarahi thi" she said but noticed that he was already dressed as pascal.
"Hmm ,he dirtied his diaper so I thought that I should change him and get him ready ." Qasim said as he smiled at his son.
Rukhsar watched him adore their child as he pressed a kiss to his head , and then laid him down again.
She nodded and moved away wordlessly.
She didn't know what was happening to her except for the fact that his gaze sent shiver under herskin.
She clenched her fist, trying to stop her thoughts from going where ther was no turning back.
"I regret this so much bhai." He confessed ,
"This was such a mistake,
"I regret it bhai"he said , sounding so broken .
"I regret being......" he closed his eyes .
Those words still haunted her , she had let things be because of all that they had gone through in the past 10 months , but that didn't mean her guard wasn't up.
He saw her as nothing more than the mother of his son.
That was it.
She made her way to the lawn , their families were to arrive at any moment ,
Taking a deep breath she steadied her self , her heart was locked away . She straightened her shoulders while Inaya jumped in the castle .
_____________________
The guests began arriving an hour later their house was bustling with people.
The cake had been cut and Inaya was playing with her cousins, shrieking and laughing.
She tried to trace Zoraiz , but he had been passed on from one uncle to another .
Everyone had been adoring her son and it made her feel more at ease.
Inaya's grandmother sat in a corner and Rukhsar decided that it was about time that they came to terms with one another .
She walked upto her and smiled ,
"Aunty aap ko kuch chahiye hai?" She asked , and she just looked at her with a raised eyebrow and pursed lips.
