Prologue

Author POV

"You guys are getting late for the wedding, and just a gentle reminder, it's not your wedding, guys, come out fast," Inaya yelled, looking at the closed door of her parents.

Her parents are going to his father's best friend's wedding, but because of her exams that are around the corner, she can't go. Being in 10th standard her parents don't want to hamper her studies. So they decided that She would stay at her maternal grandparent's house for some days.

The bedroom door opened, and Sadia and Feroz appeared in the living room of their three-bedroom flat.

Inaya got up from the sofa and went towards her parents, "Mashaallah, my babies are looking so good, Nazar na Lage meri" she muttered, moving her hands towards them and then to her side of the head.

"Dhyan se lekar Jana meri phool si Bacchi ko aur koi taklif nhi hone dena, bohut nazo se pala hain maine," She coughed dramatically, placing her hand behind her back and trying to look like a strict parent.

"Ok, mother-in-law," Feroz promised showing the same seriousness as her daughter.

They both burst out laughing, and Feroz hugged her daughter to his heart, and Sadia shook her head at their antics. "ye ladki kabhi nhi sudhregi." Inaya grinned, showing her tongue to her mom.

"Go and get your bag, we have to drop you at your Nana Jans house." Sadia reminds her daughter.

"Ok, Mumma," she kissed her mother's cheeks and dashed to her room to take her bag that she packed with some books and clothes to stay at Nana Jaan's house.

Feroz took his wife in a side hug and kissed her cheeks, "What she said is right. I have to take care of you. After all, you are looking so gorgeous." He cheekily smiles at her.

"Ya Allah, you both, Father-daughter duo, are shameless," She mumbled, hiding her blushing smile.

"I'm ready," she came out of her room with the bag. They came out of their house. Sadia locks the door and they all settle in their car.

Feroz pulled out the car from the building compound and they drove to the Haideri mansion.

"Don't trouble your mamu and mami there," Sadia instructed her sternly.

"Ok, Mumma," she saluted making her father chuckle.

40 minutes later, he turned off the engine at the Haideri mansion. Inaya dashed out of the car to meet her grandparents.

"Inaya, aaram se," Sadia yelled at her daughter's carelessness.

In the mansion, Inaya's Nana Nani was eagerly waiting to meet her.

"Nani jaan, Assalamu alaikum" she yelled in excitement and ran to hug her.

"Walekum assalam, Mera bacchi kaisi hain?" Her grandmother embraced her lovingly, holding her close for a long moment. As they broke the hug, she gently kissed Inaya's forehead, her eyes filled with warmth and affection.

"bohut achi, first class," She added with a playful wink, prompting a soft chuckle from Fatima.

"Sara pyar Nani Jan ke liye aur Nana Jan ke liye kuch nhi?" Her Nanu entered the living room with a sad pout.

She then hugged him to make him smile. Breaking the hug She kissed him on the cheek.

"Where is your mumma papa?" Her Nani questions while urging her to sit on the sofa.

"Finally, someone remembers us, Feroz." Sadia sighed dramatically, leaning on her husband's side.

She and Feroz were standing at the door as both the grandparents were busy showing their love to their grandchild.
