ISHQ-E-MUNTAZIR

7. The miscommunication🥀

SAMIYA POV
It's almost been a week since me and bhaijaan have had a conversation and trust me
It feels like a lot more easier to not talk to him everyday
But I still feel the bond breaking between us

But I don't think I'm at fault
If I was than I would've gladly apologized
And I don't understand what's the attitude for
He needs to understand that I'm very sensitive in all these things
I have previously lost family and can't bear to lose more
(Samiya was adopted when she was 15 by mehrul)

I was going to Manal's room
I knocked on her door and she said come in
She was drying her hair and mahd bhai is sitting on the bed with a laptop
It was Sunday so all the men were at home

I went inside and belly flopped on her bed
My hair all spread in her bed and my legs dangling in the air
'Uhhhhh' I grunted and she chuckled
'Ab Kia hua' mahd bhai asked removing hair from my face
'Aapke dost hain na woh, kharus Buddha' I said in anger and huffed
(You're friend, that angry old man)
'Ab Kia kara saad ne' he chuckled
(What did saad do now)

'Aap unse hi poochein ye tou' I huffed
(Ask him yourself)
'Arey tou tum mujhe btao Phir mai usse poochunga Phir btaonga na Kon sahi ha aur Kon galat' he said with pride as if he could figure out who was right and who was wrong
(You tell me what happened and I'll ask him aswell then I'll decide who was right)
'Han Han mai tou pagal hoon mujhe pata ha aap bhaijaan ki side hi lenge' I told him
(I know your going to take his side I'm not stupid)

'Aap zara bahar jao thori dher mujhe Samiya se Kuch baat karni ha' manal used her wife voice to stop the nonsense going on between me and mahd bhai
(Can you please leave for a bit I need to talk to Samiya)
'Jesa aap kahein begum' he said and went towards her
(As you say,wife)
He kissed her cheek and left the room
'Sharam karlo thori yaha koi betha ha' I yelled at him as he was going out
(Have a little shame someone's sitting here)
I huffed

'Acha now where were you here?' Manal asked
'I don't really know why I'm here and I really don't want to talk' I said and laid my head in her lap
She started to caress my hair

'Is it saad again?' she asked
I sighed but nodded
'What did he do now' she asked and I looked at her
'He doesn't do anything and that's the problem. He still hasn't talked to me' I replied with a sad expression

'Samiya I think you should talk to him' she said to me and I looked at me
'I should talk to him?' I asked hoping I heard her wrong but she nodded
'Whatever you want to hear from his mouth ask him yourself why does it matter. Sometimes the girl should take the first step and it's not written ke every time a guy should be the bigger person' she explained and I thought about it
'I need to think about it first and I cant think about anything right now' I replied
And sat in the bed l

'Think about it and take as much time as you need. Think about all the options and choose what's the best' she said to me and smiled
I took a deep breath and nodded
'Bas bhae aese bhi Kia baat ha jo khatam nhi ho rhi' and obviously mahd bhai had to interrupt
(What is so intense that you're conversation isn't ending)

'Aapne mera jeena haram kardia ha aik tou. Masla Kia ha tum logo ke husbands k saath koi baat hi nhi karne deta apni biwi se. Aapki biwi se pehle Meri behn ha ya' I taunted and wiped my fake tears
(You've made me miserable. What's the problem with your guys' husbands they don't let me talk to their wives. She's my sister before your wife)
'Han han ziada drama mat kar' mahd bhae said with a little slap in head an dkicking me out
(Don't be such a drama)

I went to my room and thought about it for a whole day and the whole night
I think manal is right
I should talk to him myself and if he doesn't have the guts to do so maybe I should be the man for once

I thought proudly

SAAD POV
I decided to talk to Samiya today
I've been ignoring her for the past week and I think I'm ready to finally face the truth
If she wants me then we will happy get together and talk to our families
And if she doesn't....
I haven't really thought about what I'll do if she doesn't want me

I don't think I can live with the thought that she'll become someone else's
I have to talk to her
I stood up and went towards her room
She wasn't in her room
So I went towards manals room hoping she would be there

'Is it saad again?' Manal asked
Again?
What does she mean by again
I didn't do anything
'What did he do now' manal asked
So I was the problem because Samiya agreed with manal
She was saying it like it was a daily occurrence
'He doesn't do anything and that's the problem. He still hasn't talked to me' I could hear the sadness in samiya's voice and I felt bad
I thought she'd be happy that i haven't talked to her

Looks like it isn't the case
I was about to listen to the rest of the conversation but someone cleared their throat
I got startled and turned around
It was mahd

'And may I ask why were you eavesdropping?' He said with a raised eyebrow
'No you may not' I replied and started to walk away
'Saale aik tou chup chup ke baatein sun rha ha Phir zaban Lara rha ha' he held me with the back of my collar
(You idiot. First you're eavesdropping than you're being rude)

'Chhor bey' I said and and twisted his hand
(Leave me man)
'Ahh ahhh sorry bhai sorry mai mazak kar rha tha' he winced in pain as I twisted his hand
(Ahhh ahhh sorry man sorry I was just joking)
'Lekin ye nhi kar agar tujhe Kuch jaanna ga tou baat karle seedhi seedhi' he said to me very seriously
(But still if you want to know something hust ask her)
And I nodded

'Yeah man I know' I sighed and left for my room
I really thought about it
I should've talked to her cleared the matter as soon it happened
My giving her silent treatment and not talking to her only made the situation worse
I sighed and laid on my bed

I'm sorry for the delay😭😭😭😭😭
