"Aashir son, you take this fried rice, I have made it, especially for you."
Asfand, who was lost in his mobile checking emails while eating, hand moving to his mouth stopped for a moment on listening to her love-filled voice for Aashir. He turned his neck and gazed at his left side and saw Sanam sitting beside Aashir feeding him adoringly.
A relief ran into his body on seeing this scene. His son is very dear to him. Still, he remember this quite well when Laraib announced her pregnancy news, how he became dumbfounded standing quietly for a long time.
He was forced to marry Laraib. She can't become the replacement of Sanam in Asfand's life. A mistake that happened between them unknowingly has led to the establishment of a husband and wife relationship between both.
How much shocked he was after listening to this news but on the opposite side Laraib wasn't happy with this news. He doesn't get to know the reason of it.
And when for the first time he took Aashir in his lap, he felt as if he got the purpose of his life. Aashir was a part of his life.
But Laraib after the birth of Aashir took divorced from him and left them both. Leaving her small child yearning for his mother it was the moment when Asfand for the second time felt hatred for someone.
But till today he doesn't get to know the reason for her taking a hasty divorce. He was confused by this.
But he was happy in his life with his son. He never thinks of bringing someone else into his life. But then like a storm they both again came back to his life.
But in all this story he wasn't satisfied with one thing and that is the behavior of Sanam with Aashir. She is taking care of Aashir like her own child.
Maybe Laraib couldn't take care of him the way she does. No matter how coldly he was behaving with Sanam but Sanam didn't let it effect on her love for Aashir.
And that was the thing which has become the reason for slowly wiping away the dust of hatred on his heart that was caused by Sanam deceiving him six years ago.
"Mama no more, I can't eat it now. You already made me eat so many things in the lunch, this way my tummy will come out like a balloon."
On the voice of Aashir, his train of thoughts broken and he again peered at both of them.
Completely ignoring his presence now she was wiping the mouth of Aashir with tissue. Only the three were present at the dining table now.
Mr. Hayat because of his sickness took lunch in his room. While Haadi because of some important work was out of the house. That's why today there was complete silence at the dining table.
"Mama I am going. My favorite show is about to start now. You also come quickly."
As soon as he finished his lunch, he instantly got up from his chair and ran to the lounge.
"Slow down son or you will hurt yourself."
Seeing his hastiness, Sanam can't stop herself from reprimanding him. But he didn't give ear to her saying and went out of there. Sanam shook her head negatively and started picking up the dishes from the table.
Today the maid was also on leave so she also has to do this work. She was completely ignoring Asfand's presence when started collecting the dishes. But she can feel his deep penetrating eyes on her.
The trembling of her hand was not hidden from Asfand's eyes when she was picking up the dishes. He was sitting comfortably noticing her every single move.
When she finds it hard to stand to his deep burning eyes, she quickly picked up the dishes and went to the kitchen. She puts the dishes on the slab and starts taking deep heavy breathing as if she just ran a thousand miles.
"Why are you running away from me?"
With her closed eyes, she was standing trying to steady her uneven breathing when she listened to the voice of Asfand on her back.
She instantly turned back and saw him standing in front of her with his hands in the pocket of his pant. He was taking her in the snare of his eyes.
"No, why I would run from you? I was here to put the dishes."
She said without looking at him. Don't know why but she didn't find the courage to meet eyes with him. First, she was the one who used to run back and forth around him for telling the truth but now she felt Asfand will not at all believe in whatever she told him.
"If there's nothing as such then why do you avoid looking at me? You run from wherever I go. Why is this so?"
Keeping his eyes fixed on her, taking slow predatory steps he was coming closer to her. On finding him coming closer, Sanam's heart started thumping wildly.
"Neither am I avoiding you nor am I running from you. You must have misunderstood."
Setting her dupatta which was annoying her again and again in his presence by sliding down from her shoulder.
"But your look is telling me something else?"
Now he was totally right in front of her. Sanam tried to back off but she couldn't move because of the slab touching her back.
"This trembling of your eyelashes is telling me something else."
Very slightly he touched her eyelashes. After touching her eyelashes now his hand was moving to her neck.
"This trembling of your body...."
Now his finger was rubbing the hickey on her neck which he had marked on her last night. Feeling his touch on her hickey Sanam squirmed and stared at him whose eyes were fixed on her that mark.
"Your puzzling, this sweetness on your forehead when I came close to you."
Very softly, his finger was stroking that mark while he wiped the sweat formed on her forehead with his other heavy hand.
"Nothing is like that, it's because of the temperature I was feeling like...."
Steadying in her messy condition, she hardly made herself say this. She tried to come out of his side but he already sensed her intention and placed his hands on either side of her taking her in his embrace and blocking her way.
"Why don't you accept that it's all because of my closeness, Sanam Asfand Khan?"
He further leaned on her and blew air on her face. On his this act, Sanam stopped her breathing as she hitched.
"Asfand..... Please get off. Someone will see us."
Seeing his close intimacy, Sanam got nervous and gazed here and there but not at him. She was afraid if someone comes to the kitchen and see them both standing like that then how embarrassing it would be.
"If you have that much dare then get off me. I will get away, otherwise..."
He was staring at her and his eyes were sparkling with something strange. She was gazing at everything in the kitchen but not at him.
"Why are you annoying me? Despite doing so much with me, are you still not relieved?"
Her sentence was left in the mouth when Asfand ended the remaining gap and leaned forward on her and placed his lips on that hickey on her neck.
"Asfand."
Sanam squirmed and puts her hands on his chest to move him back but took her both wrists tightly in his hands.
"Mama, why are you getting late? I have been waiting for you for so long time?"
Before that Asfand further leaned on her face and advances his move, on the voice of Aashir he has to back off and let her wrists free. He turned towards Aashir who was now in the kitchen.
"Yes, my son, a little work was left I am just coming."
With her red face, she was embarrassed while straightening her dupatta. She moved towards Aashir and for once glanced at Asfand who was looking embarrassed.
Thank God he didn't see anything otherwise she wouldn't have come in front of Aashir in gotten awkward.
"Dad, you also come. Today together we three will watch a good movie."
Along with Sanam he now also held Asfand's hand and led them out of the kitchen.
Asfand was about to refuse him because he has some office work to do but can't deny him after looking at the happiness on his son's face so he silently went with him.
