SHAH HOUSE
10.00 P.M

Zoha and other ladies take Noor to Almeer's room and made her sit in his bed. She was crying while sitting. That was when the sound of the door opening came and Noor wiped off her tears immediately. Almeer came inside. He came and sat near Noor. He saw her eyes

Almeer- Tum ro rahi thi?
( You were crying?)

Noor- Nahi wo..
( No, umm..)

Almeer wiped the remaining drops of tears from her cheeks. Noor's cheeks were all red. She was blushing hard. When Almeer realized, he suddenly took his hands off her.

Almeer- Noor mai kabhi tumhare sath badtameezi se nahi pesh aaunga. Hamesha khush rakhunga tumhe. Ab tum change karlo or aaram se bed me sojao. Mai sofa me sojaunga.
( Noor I'll never treat you badly. Will always keep you happy. Now you change and sleep peacefully in the bed. I'll sleep in the sofa.)

Noor gets up from her bed, Almeer leaves the room and Noor locked the door. When Noor changed, she opened the door for Almeer.

She was wearing a navy blue night kurti with a white palazzo.  Almeer entered the room. After that, she was sitting on the dressing table unpinning her hairs. She was facing difficulty with a pin.

Almeer- Kya hua?
( What happened?)

Noor- Kuch nahi wo pin nahi nikal rahi.
( Nothing just this pin isn't coming out.)

Almeer- Ruko mai kisi ko bula lata hu.
( Wait, I'll call someone for help.)

Almeer went outside and saw everywhere if anyone is available for help. Everyone was sleeping. Their maid, Rukhsana Bi's room was also locked from inside. He went back to his room.

Almeer- Wo Zoha baaji or ammi sab so rahe hai. Rukhsar bi ka room bhi locked hai. ( Hesitatingly and slowly in nervousness.) Kaho to-- um-- m-- mai- help kardu?
( Zoha baji and Mother are sleeping. Rukhsar Bi's room is also locked. If you say m--may-- I- I do any help?)

Noor-Umm okay

Noor was not hesitant as her Umair and her cousin brothers had always helped her in such things.

Almeer removed the pin from her hairs. He felt the silkiness of her hairs. The smoothness, softness, silkiness. His hands slipped off her hairs. He quietly took his blanket and pillow from the bed and slept on the sofa kept in the same room.

MIDNIGHT

Noor was awaken due to thirstiness. She wants to drink water. She saw that the jug kept near her bed was empty. Neither did she know the way to kitchen as she was new to this house. The house was very big like her house. At night, she was directly brought to her house. She switched on the lights and saw Almeer was lying down on the floor. She waked up him.

Noor- Almeer! Almeer utho
( Almeer wake up.)

Almeer- Ha kya hua?
( Yes what happened?)

Noor- Niche kyu soye ho?
( Why are you sleeping on the floor?)

Almeer realized and get up.

Almeer- Nind me gir gaya hounga. Tum kyu jaag rahi ho? Nind nahi aa rahi kya? Chalo garden me chalte hai tumhe acha lagega.
( I might have fallen while sleeping. Why are you awake? Aren't you feeling sleepy? Come, lets go to the garden you'll feel better.)

Noor- Mujhe paani peena hai?
( I wanna drink water.)

Almeer- Oh acha! Jug me nahi hai kya?
( Oh! It isn't in jug?)

Noor- Nahi
(No)

Almeer- Chalo mere sath kitchen batata hu.
( Come with me I'll show you the way to kitchen.)

Both of them went towards kitchen. Almeer poured a glass of water for Noor. Noor was sitting on a chair about to drink water when a cokroach touched Noor's feet. Almeer was standing in front of her waiting to drink water so that they can sleep.

Noor- Cokroach!

Saying this, she moved her legs upward which made the water in the glass land on Almeer's tshirt. Now the thing Noor was holding was an empty glass of water.

Noor- Arey! I'm so sorry Almeer. I didn't mean to do this.

She took the towel which was kept their in her hands and started soaking his tshirt. That was when someone knocked the door trying to confirm their presence.  They saw that their maid Rukhsar was standing on the door. Noor maintained her distance as soon as she saw her.

Noor- T- tum jao Almeer mai ye pani saaf karke aati hu.
( You go Almeer I'll clean this and come.)

Rukhsar- Nahi mai kar dungi aap jake aaram karo.
( No, I'll do this you go and rest.)

Noor and Almeer head towards their room.

Noor- Sorry 

Almeer- Kya yaar tum cokroach se darti ho. (giggled)
( You are scared of a cokroach.)

Noor- Ha ha koi badi baat nahi hai.
( Oh oh. Its not a big issue.)

Almeer- Ha waise daro bhi tum bhi to chhoti si ho. Meri chhoti.
( Well you need to be afraid. You are so small. My smally.)

Noor- Oho tum jaise bohot bade tiger ho hai na.
( As if you are a bold tiger right.)

They reached the room.

Noor- Tum niche gir jaate ho. Bed me sojao mai sofa me sojaungi.
( You fall downside. Sleep on the bed, I'll sleep on sofa.)

Almeer- Nahi nahi
( NO NO)

Noor- Fir tum bed ke left side me so or mai right side me. Faces apart okay.
( Then you sleep on the left side of bed and I'll sleep on right. Faces apart okay.)

Almeer- Umm thik hai. Mai change karke aata hu tumne ye jo poora nahla dia hai mujhe aadhi raat me.
( Umm okay. I'll change and come. The way you had gave m a late night bath.)

Noor giggled on him and said- I'm sleeping.

They both slept on their sides peacefully.
