The morning light was coming into my room. The first ray of the sun entering through the window touched my face, and I pulled the comforter over my head. Outside, the birds were singing sweetly, eager to be a part of this beautiful morning moment. The air was slightly chilly, but there was a sweet fragrance, as if nature had adorned itself anew.

Sara woke up a little later, gathered her hair, and went to the washroom to freshen up. After freshening up, she returned to the room and started getting ready. Just then, her phone rang. Sara walked from the dressing table to the bed, picked up the phone, and saw that Minal was calling. She answered the call, went back to the dressing table, and started getting ready while talking to Minal.

Minal said on the other end of the call,  Oh Sara we’ll be getting assignments in college today.

Sara replied,  Yes  I know. I saw the message in the college group.

Minal said, Alright tell me  are you coming to college?

Sara replied in sad tone, Yes  I’m coming.

Minal asked in surprise, .Are you feeling sad?

Sara said, You’re the only one who understands from my words that I’m sad  but my husband doesn’t even care.

Minal asked with concern, What happened? Tell me.

When Zayyan entered the room, he saw Sara talking on the phone and quietly stood by the door, listening to her conversation.

Meanwhile, unaware of this, Sara continued talking to Minal, saying, “mere sauhar jitna gussa karte hai mujhe lgta hai unke neuron cell mein har waqt mutations hote rehte hai .”

Zayyan couldn’t help but smile at his wife’s words, and he stood there  enjoying listening to her.

Minal  on the other end  said, Oh Sara what are you saying? I can’t stop laughing!

Sara said,  If my husband hears this  he won’t laugh. Instead, he’ll glare at me with red eyes or scold me.

Minal  you know, I’ve finally understood why he doesn’t laugh.

Minal said on the call, then tell me too why Zayyan bhai doesn’t laugh.

Sara laughed and said, “wo kafi punctual hai isliye wo haste nhi kuki hasenge to unke chehre ke 12 muscles ek sath work karenge aur unke work karne se inka time waste hoga jo mere sauhar ko pasand nhi hai bas isliye ye nhi haste hai.”

Minal laughed loudly on the phone and said, Oh Sara you and your responses could make anyone laugh.

Zayyan slightly laughed at his wife’s words  but when he entered the room   trying to hide his laughter  Sara got scared upon seeing him. She quickly said goodbye to Minal and hung up the phone. She looked at herself in the mirror and muttered, Last night  I said I should stay away, so now I’ll stay away from him.

Sara  after getting ready  walked away  ignoring Zayyan, Seeing her leave like that  Zayyan thought to himself,  Is she really going to ignore me now?  Shaking off his thoughts, he reassured himself,  No  it’s nothing like that. Why would my wife ignore me?

When Sara entered the lounge, she saw Daniyal and Amaira sitting there. Malik Sahab and Rashid Sahab had already left for the office earlier than usual.

As she sat down on the sofa, Sara asked,  I don’t see Abbu and Chachu. Where did they go so early in the morning?

Daniyal smiled and replied, Bhabhi  they went to the office. There was some urgent work.
