Bonded By Fate.

Chapter-13

Ayat's POV:-

I heard whatever ammi said and left after saying that I will let her know my decision later.
I quickly climbed up the stairs and ran into my room, shut the door and jumped onto my bed and cried my heart out.

I was unable to figure out what I am going to say to ammi regarding this matter. I was totally confused at that time. Many things were running into my head and I couldn't help but cry. I cried, I cried, I cried untill I felt that I should seriously make a decision that will either make me or break me.

The only reason because of which I don't want to get married is the circumstances I have seen people facing around me.

Firstly I have seen abbu who left us when I was just six years old, he never gave me the love that a father should give to his daughter. I never asked ammi that why abbu left us, even Aaliyah aapi doesn't know this. I have always thought of asking this to ammi but just not to hurt her I have always dropped this idea. I have seen how ammi single handedly struggled for us just to give us a good and better life, she has never let us felt the absence of abbu in our life. She played the role of both mother and father for us.

Secondly I have seen bhaijaan( Aaliyah aapi's husband) who betrayed Aaliyah aapi and left her just because of misunderstandings between them created by a third person. He didn't even cared about his little daughter and carelessly left both of them.
I don't understand how two people who trust each other alot break apart because of misunderstandings.
According to me if you love any person and you have full trust on him/her than nothing can break you apart.

I have seen betrayals and heart breaks all around.
Even now I am witnessing Nuzhath and Imran's relationship. How he is using her and how Nuzhath is so blindly in love with him that she is not ready to believe that he is not right for him and she broke our friendship for the so called fake relationship. I will not take even a step back and will try my best to let Nuzhath know about the real Imran behind the mask that he is wearing.
I can't believe how desperately anyone can fake anything like Imran is doing. He is ruining Nuzhath's life.

Seeing and experiencing all this how can I believe in love and marriage, when I am totally surrounded by betrayals and heart breaks.

Amidst of all these thoughts. The only thing that would help me was salah and the only one with whom I can seek help was Allah.
I just got up from my bed, wiped off my tears.
Performed ablution and offered salah.
Tears started rolling down from my eyes the moment I started talking to Allah, the only one who notices my tears and help me out in my every difficult situation. I made dua, wiped my tears. Folded the musallah and kept it on the table.

Putting in all the trust on Allah, I decided to get married. If this thing makes ammi happy than I have to do it whether I like it or not.

I then slept with bags under my eyes due to weeping.

The next morning started on a usual note with fajar salah and Surah Yaseen's recitation.
I decided to surprise ammi with my decision and with the breakfast.
So I quickly went down to make the breakfast.
I decided to make Aalo paratha's which was everyone's favourite and Veg dum pulao too.

I quickly started chopping off the available veggies for the vegetable dum pulao meanwhile I have put potatoes to boil.
After the potatoes were done. I kneaded the dough for the paratha's and kept aside.
I then mixed all the dry masala's in the mashed potatoes and added some chopped coriander and green chillies to add some spicy flavour.

After finishing up with the paratha dough and mixture, I started with boiling rice. I also par boiled all the veggies and then lightly sauted them in oil and added all the necessary dry masala's and curd in the veggies. When almost the veggies were done, I added the boiled rice into it and gave it a good mix all together. After completing the Vegetable dum pulao. I started working on paratha's.

Took a handfull of the Potato mixture and stuffed it in the dough and rolled it out. After everything was done, I cleaned up the kitchen and was about to go back in the room then I heard ammi from behind.
"Anything special today that you made the breakfast" Ammi coughed.
"Nothing special ammi just simply I made it" I smiled.
"You please call Aaliyah aapi and awez till then I will arrange all the things on the table" I stated while taking out the pulao in a dish.
Ammi went and called Awez and Aaliyah aapi for the breakfast.

We all had our breakfast after which Aaliyah aapi left for school and Awez helped me in keeping the things back in the kitchen. When I was done, I then walked towards ammi to inform her about my decision.

"Ammi" I murmured.
"Yes Ayat, Do you need anything" Ammi interrogated.
"No ammi nothing, I just wanted to say that I have decided to marry" I stammered.
I then saw a wide and bright smile on ammi's face, that gave me a sense of relief, I smiled back.

Ammi stood up and hugged me tight, that have clearly shown how happy ammi was by my decision.
"This is nothing ammi I can do anything just to see a smile on your face, I can even climb mountains. So shall I?" We both shared a laugh.

"No need to climb any mountain" ammi chuckled.

"I need to hurry up, I am getting late to college" I made my way to my room to get my bag.

Assalaamu Alaikum lovely people.
How you all are doing?? I hope everyone is doing good with the grace of Allah.
