Meerab took a bath in the morning and put on a red dress.Mariyam has been calling Meerab since that early morning.Murtasim is still sleeping in peace.Meerab narrowed her eyes and looked at him once, quietly pulled the veil over her body and opened the door of the room.
Meerab comes to the living room and meeting with Salma khanam.She smiles at her and makes her sit next to her.She opens a jewellery box.A necklace hung around her neck and said;
"Masha Allah.Yeh jevar tum par bohot jachega.Walima pe tum yehi pehnoge.Sab dekhte reh jayenge mere Murtasim ke dulhan ko."
Meerab nodded her head.Salma Khanam said;
"Tumhari jo maa thi Nadia bohot acchi khatun thi.Allah use jannat naseeb kare.Sab ka bohot khayal rakhti thi.Ummed karta hu aisa khoobi tumhare andar bhi hogi."
Meerab smiles and says;
"Beshak sab ka bohot khayal rakhti thi.Sab ke fikar thi unhe lekin afsos unka khayal kisi ne nahi kiya.Jab unke sath galat hua to sab ne unke sath dene ke wajai unke awaz ko daba diya.Lekin mein aisi nahi hu apne liye awaz uthana aata hau mujhe."
Salma khanam's facial expressions getting changed.She said;
"Mard se aisi galti ho jati hai.Aurat ko hi sayyanm se kam lena parta hai.Baat itni bari bhi nahi thi."
Meerab strangely smiles and says;
"Mard ke liye aap ke nazar mein yeh ek choti si galti thi aur agar yehi chij aurat kare to woh gunah kyun ho jata hai.Dhoka dhoka hota hai maa begum chahe woh mard kare yaa aurat.Dono ke liye hi yeh zurm na qable mafi hai."
Salma khanam was shocked by Meerab's words. After looking at her for a while,she said in a very furious tone,
"Dekho bibi agar apna ghar basaye huye rakhna chahti ho to apni zuban ko lagam do.Kyun ki mard ko zaban daraj biwi pasand nahi hote."
"Aur aurat ko bhi woh mard pasand nahi hai jo apne awaz aurat ke aage buland kare."
Mrs Salma angrily looks at Meerab and she sarcastically smiles at her.

Murtasim stands in front of pool.He smile to recall the fearful face of Meerab when he tried to get closed with her and how she share the bed with him just proves him wrong.He just smiling recalling every moment of their wedding night.
"Tumhare chai."
Murtasim turned his head back and sees Haya standing there in holding tea tray.He asking her with serious voice;
"Maine manga hai chai?"
"Mangne ke jarorat nahi mujhe pata hai tumhe kab kya chahiye.Lo pii loo."
Murtasim let out a sigh and said;
"Itni dheet aur besharam kyun ho tum?Itni zillat aur beizzati sehne ke baad bhi baaj nahi aate.I can't believe this."
"Mohabbat ne mujhe dheet bana diya hai.Kisi chij se mujhe koi farak nahi parta agar parta sirf tumse."
"Aur mein shadishuda hu."
"Mein nahi manti."
"Tumhari manne na manne se kya farak parta hai.Mein manta hu meri biwi manti hai.Agar hum dono hi mante hai to tum kon hote ho na mannewali."
Haya gets tearly eyes and says;
"Kyun ki tumne usse shadi.Woh mujhse zada khubsurat hai?"
