Both of them were on their way back to haveli when Zahra's eyes fell on a man selling cotton candies. Her mouth filled with drool as she desirously looked at those pink cotton candies and she couldn't stop herself.
"Irtazaaa stop the car!" She almost screamed causing him to instantly apply brakes making the car wheels produce a screeching sound, followed by the honks and screeching sounds of those cars as well which abruptly stopped behind them making the traffic jam.
"What Zahra?! What happened?!" He asked worriedly.
"Woh.... asal mein..... I want that." She said, cutely pointing toward the man selling the cotton candies.
(I...actually)
"Did you make the car stop for this?" He asked and she nodded her head sheepishly.
His lips formed a thin line as he took a deep breath to calm himself down before releasing the brake and moving the car again.
Zahra got the hint that he was angry and this made her panic immediately as she began to blabber whatever came into her mouth, which she always did whenever she was scared or nervous.
He stopped the car to a side and looked towards her who was blabbering something, scaredly.
"We could have an accident. Be careful next time." He scolded making her blabbering stop instantly.
"I'm sorry. I love cotton candies so I couldn't stop myself and screamed whatever came into my mouth.."
He smiled, her actions were similar to 5-year old Alizey.
"You're such a child Zahra," he mused, looking at her intensely, and left the car before getting back with a whole big bunch of cotton candies for her.
Her eyes widened as happiness danced in them as they fell on those cotton candies. They were too much for her.
"Are all these for me?" she asked pointing towards the cotton candies.
"Well, I don't like sweets so all of these are for you." He said handling her the candies which she abruptly took. She loved cotton candies to the core of her heart.
"Chalo shukar hai ab apko share nahi Karani parein gi," she muttered under her breath but he heard it, making him chuckle before he roared the engine to life and drove smoothly on the road.
(Thank god I won't have to share these with you)
The car halted again due to the traffic jam and that's when Zahra's eyes fell on a man selling garlands. Zahra was about to scream for the garlands when Irtaza's word came into her mind and she stopped before poking her finger onto his shoulder, diverting his attention toward her.
"Hmm?" he asked, looking towards her.
She hesitated, thinking about his reaction.
'Should I say it or should I not' she thought, confusedly.
"Ab meri biwi ko kia lena hai?" He questioned, striking at the exact point.
(What does my wife want now?)
"Mene gajray lenay hein," she replied, smiling, pointing towards the man selling garlands.
He smiled and teased her nose with his forefinger.
"My innocent wife," he muttered and placed a chaste kiss on her forehead. He loved her childish acts, it was her innocence that attracted her to him.
Calling the man, he brought the whole set of red and white garlands for her. She smiled wholeheartedly, only her father used to pamper her like this.
