Hareem felt a lump in her throat and she gulped down. Her heart felt heavier by each passing seconds.

"Main chalta hoon. Bohot late ho gaya hai." Imran stood up and she forced a smile. She didn't have any energy to even look up at him. She muttered something in Mahnoor ear and she nodded her head.

Zaryab noticed that Hareem and Mahnoor were also leaving.

"Aapi ki tabiyat thik nahi lag rahi hai. Ham dono jaa rahe hai apne portion mai." Zaryab looked at her with concern.

"Main doctor ke pass le ke chalu?" Zaryab asked.

Hareem shook her head slightly and moved away from there without utterly followed by mahnoor.

"Tumhara demagh durust hai?" His father looked up at him with an accusing gaze.

"Maine kya kiya?" Zaryab was confused with layla makes even more angrier.

"Pyaar tum kisi aur se karte ho. Commitment kisi aur ko de baitho. Tumhara demagh kharab ho gaya hai. Uff. Kya hoga tumhara?" Layla snapped at him to which faris raised his eyebrows at her.

Ajeeb dost aur khandaan hai layla ke, Faris thought.

"Tum se accha tou wo junayd hai. Atleast apni commitment pe qaayam hai wo." Layla added and a smile was threatened to break on his lips. Faris caressed his lower lips with his thumb in order to conceal his smile.

Madam ne tareef tou ki.

"Main kisi se pyaar nahi karta." Zaryab tone was serious.

"Haan. Bhai. Main tou jaise andha hoon. Aap jaise hareem pe haq jataa rahe the subah main. Kya kah rahe the aap usse? Haan. Aap ke waqt pe sirf mera haq hai." Shahrayed mimicked him and he felt the urge to punch his face. His father gave him the disappointed look.

"Haan. Tou main iss liye kah raha tha ke wo apna waqt nahi zaaya kare."

"Please. Zaryab. Tum ham sab ko khuwaar kar ke rakhe ho."

"Aap log meri baat samajhne ki koshish kare. Wo ek acche insaan the aur yakeenan unki beti bhi unhi ke jaisi naik hogi. Main kisi se mohabbat nahi karta aur naa hi mujh mai itni taakat hai ke mohabbat karu. Main chahta hoon ke aap log mera faisla qubool karey aur wo bechari ladki ko khule dil se apnaaye. Bas itni si expectation hai mujhe aap log se."

"Tum uss ladki naam tak nahi jaante. Tum wo bhi nahi jaante ke wo kaisi dikhti hai? Agar wo tumhe pasand nahi aayi tou?" His father asked him with a concern to which he smile.

"Mujhe fark nahi padhta ke woh kaisi dikhti hai bass maine unka maamla Allah ke hawale kar diya hai. Allah mere haq mai bahtar kare. Maine commitment di hai aur main ye commitment pura karunga." He said in a final tone.

"Tumhare commitment ki aisi ki taisi. Bhaad mai jau tum. Jisse shaadi karni hai kar ko. Main ab tum kabhi mashwara nahi dungi." Layla grabbed her bag and went away closing the door with a loud thud. Faris rolled his eyes at her reaction as he followed her from behind.

"Galat nahi kah rahi hai wo."

"Wo bewakoof hai. Agar mujhe kisi se mohabbat hogi tou kya mujhe nahi pata hoga." Zaryab said in a cold tone.

"Aapko waqayi pata nahi. Aap ruke bas. Aapko aapki mohabbat ka ehsaas dilaane ki zimmedari ab meri." Shahrayed said in adamant tone and he left from there.

"Maine tou apni gharwali ko bol diya tha ke Zaryab sahab ki shaadi Hareem bibi se hogi. Ab main kya bolunga usse?" Bashar said in a low tone and Zaryab glared at him.

"You disappointed me, Zaryab."

"Abba. Aap tou mujhe samajhne ki koshish kare. Wo ek acchi ladki hogi aur aap ko bhi wo acchi lagegi."
