“I told you do not come” Dua mumured under her breath to Farid who sat beside her.

“Its not my fault, they came back” Farid muttered in frustration while Nervously smiling at Meerab.

“Ab kya kerna hai? Dua glared at him

Meerab sat in the hospital’s cafeteria, her mind swirling with the events of the night. She glanced at Farid and Dua, who were seated across from her, their expressions a mix of nervousness and anticipation. The cafeteria was relatively quiet, the low hum of conversations and the clinking of cutlery providing a gentle backdrop to their discussion.

“Now tell her” Dua murmured

“Me?” He narrowed his eyes, his voice a whisper

“Nahi I should call that guard- He shall tell” Dua glared.

Farid kept glancing at the door, his fingers tapping restlessly on the table. Meerab noticed his unease and raised an eyebrow. “He won’t come, you know,” she said, breaking the silence. “He’s gone – just texted me.” She was referring to Murtasim, who had sent her a quick message saying he had to step out for a while. “Darne ki zarurat nahi hai”

Farid let out a nervous laugh, his eyes darting away from hers. Meerab turned her gaze to Dua, and couldn’t help but feel a pang of curiosity and confusion. Why hadn’t Dua told her anything about liking Farid? And Farid, had kept this a secret from Murtasim as well?

“So, what’s going on?” Meerab asked, her tone a mix of curiosity and mild accusation. She folded her arms and leaned back in her chair, waiting for an explanation.

Farid and Dua exchanged a glance before Dua started to speak. “Uh-Meerab-woh” Dua started

“we’ve been seeing each other for the past two-three months…”

Farid interrupted, correcting her with a slightly indignant tone, “It’s three and a half months, actually.”

“Seeing?” She stared at them

“Another laila majnu jori?” She raised an eyebrow

“Meerab nahi woh hum” Dua started again

Meerab narrowed her eyes at them, a hint of amusement mixed with exasperation. “Jee ap, kahiye? So what?”

Dua hesitated, glancing at Farid for support. Farid cleared his throat and began, “Bhabhi, I-uh, we…”

Rolling her eyes she glared at Farid.

Dua suddenly blurted out, “I want to marry him, Meerab.”

The statement hung in the air for a moment, and then Meerab stiffened a smile. It was a mixture of surprise, relief, and sheer incredulity. Farid and Dua looked at each other, then back at Meerab, their expressions a mix of hope and anxiety.

Meerab took a deep breath, her eyes subsiding into a broad smile. “Shadi? Ap dono? Hmmm.”

Farid and Dua exchanged another glance before Farid took the lead. “I saw her on your wedding and Uske baad ek ek do baar randomly I saw her. One day we actually met and We started talking and, well, we just clicked.”

Dua nodded, her eyes sparkling with affection. “And he-uh- He is very nice. Kind and respectful so um-.” Dua’s cheeks colored

Farid chuckled, his eyes meeting Dua’s with a warmth that spoke volumes. “We started spending more time together, sneaking around a bit because we didn’t know how you and Murtasim would react. Please bhabhi. I promise I’ll take care of her and will always keep her happy. I’m in love with her”
