Momina and Shehryar reach his mansion, and the driveway itself was a 3-minute long drive from the gates, with the tighest security one could possibly hire. Inside a semi-covered layout of his cars displayed his assets. And the garden beautifully grew every kind of flower that could possibly blossom in Pakistan.

"Kya fayida is sab ka!" Momina whispers heading into the mansion, thinking that all this is a waste since he has nobody to share it with.

"Tumhein yahan akele rehkar darr nahi lagta?" Momina asks forgetting their past and animosity for a moment. They head into the living area, while Momina looks around the grand house.

"Kisne kaha main akela hoon?"

"Toh fir..."

"-Buaaa!!" A young boy's voice coming from the living room echoes throughout the mansion and Momina can't comprehend it.

As soon as they reach the living room and Shehryar moves away, she is faced by a young, beautiful woman, who is standing there, smiling at her, while the boy runs towards herself.

"Assalamwalaikum buaa! Main aapka kabse intezaar kar raha tha." The young boy stops in closer to her when there's no initiation from her.

Momina looks at his face, and studies the striking similarity he had to Shehryar when he was young. Why was he calling her 'bua'? She glances at Shehryar, who nods assuringly, a small smile forming on his lips.

Upon realizing, she falls down on her knees and embraces the child in her arms.

"Rayyan Malik." Shehryar says, crossing his arms.

Momina's tears flow freely as she hugs him. She thinks how many years she has lived without knowing of this family, of Rayyan, the heir of Maliks.

After a while, she goes up to the woman.

"Meet my wife, Mehak."

Momina hugs her, all the time thinking of everything she missed out on

Momina hugs her, all the time thinking of everything she missed out on.

"Jab Shehryar ne bataya ke aap aa rahin hain, hum dono hi itne excited ho gaye ke... aapse milke bahot khushi hoyi, aap pehli member hain Shehryar ki family ki jissey hum mile hain."

"Lekin aapko kaise pata..."

"Shehryar ne apke baare mein sab bataya tha. Aur Rayyan ko toh yeh bol rakha tha ke bua US mein bahot masroof hoti hain, isiliye aa nahi paati'n. Last year shehryar ne kaha tha ke aap aayengi milne lekin aap aayi'n nahi, miley bina wapis chali'n gayi thi." Mehak smiles.

Momina remembers when Shehryar asked her to meet him last year when she had called him to save Hadi. But she avoided him and left for the US. She now realises this was why he wanted to meet.

"Aap baithein na, kya laingi chai coffee, juice?"

"Mehak, Shazia se keh kar herbal tea banvado Momina ki tabiyat theek nahi hai."
