*Lunch & Heart Breaking News*

--------------------------------------------------

-Maryam-

"Assalam-o-Alaikum." I smiled at them and step aside to let them in. 

"Walaikum Assalam" Nadia says softly as she turned to me. I step forward and give her a hug before stepping back. 

"Everyone is waiting for you" They both nodded and follow me from the living room where our family is waiting for them. I walk toward my Dad and stand next to him. He gives me a small smile and patted my head.

I look at the Saim as he walk over to his Mom and kneel in front of her. She looks at him with teary eyes and make him sit next to her before hugging him. Saim let his Mom cry on his shoulder because he knows stay almost a week away from her only son kill her from inside. 

"We are sorry Mom." Saim pulled back and look at his mother's watery eyes. His smile as he looks up and saw his sister standing quietly in the corner. He stood up and walk toward Safia and pulled her to him.

"Don't cry. I am here now." He tries to make her tears stop but it keeps falling. She looked up at him and shake her head. 

"I thought, you leave us forever. Please don't go away again. I can't live without you or Mom. I am happy that you are back with us again." She smiled shakingly making him smile back softly. 

"I won't leave you all, I promise." He went back to his mother with Nadia by his side now. Aunty stood up and look at Nadia blankly before looking at Saim.

"A-Assalam-o-Alaikum." She gives her Salam softness. Aunty look at her and nodded slowly with a small smile. 

"Walaikum Assalam, welcome home. I am so sorry for what I did. I was just upset when I know what Saim did." Aunty looks at them guiltly. Saim shakes his head and was about to say something, but Nadia cut him off. 

"You don't have to say sorry for anything. You are like my Mom and you have every right to scold us, slap us and tell us where are we wrong. I really don't want to do all that, but I can't think of anything but agreeing with Saim. I am sorry we hurt you, but it was good for us and your family." Nadia looks down sadly and what Aunty did next shocked us. She steps forward and hugged her making her shock as well. Nadia closes her eyes as they filled with tears and hugged her back. 

I sigh with a smile. Now we had to do one thing. We have to tell everyone about her past, I know everything about her. This was one reason Saim did all this. Her brother wants her back and they find her again. But now they can't do anything as she is now Saim wife and to the law, no one can take her away from this city. This is why they did court marriage to get in record so  no one can say that this all is a lie. Now we have to do the proper ceremony of their wedding for their relatives. 

After everyone was seated, Saim explain everything and answer their questions. Just like we expected Aunty wants to do everything by herself. She assures Nadia that nothing is going to happen when she asked about her brother finding her out. She is still scared of her brother, but we know that they can't step in this house and if they did, they will be in jail as Dad order his guard.  

About an hour later, Mom and Aunty kick us out to plan everything about their function. We went in my room and told Nadia told Saim to take Safia out as she didn't want to leave his side. He sigh and leave Nadia, Simra and me alone.

"Don't tease her." I warn Simra with a glare making her pout.

"You are no fun." She rolled her eyes at me and start a relaxing conversation with Nadia. I feel her tensed up first but she started to loosen up. I was about to ask something to Nadia but stop when my room door open and Safia enter with a smile.
