Wo Humsafar Tha...

Ashar Ashar All Around

Khirad's P. O. V.

I'm looking a bit fat in this... I think I should go for the white one...Or should I ask Badi Mummy... O my my this is by far the 50th time you are changing your attire...interrupted a voice... It was Noorafzah our maid nd my oldest pal... I've got the whole new range of clothes... My closets are jammed still I'm not finding anything suitable... Suggest me something Noori...
My beautiful princess you'd the best in whatever you wear... Plus don't behave as if he's gonna see you for the very first time.
You can go out if you don't want to help me but please stop telling tales on my immortal beauty... I seriously don't believe you when you use such cheesy words...
Yes Yes I'm leaving... After all I don't want to be blamed for anything... She said while leaving the room...
As I was about to pick up another dress Noori peeped in nd questioned... Wat if after all the hard work you do, what if he rejects you???
I through a pillow on her...
Relax girl... You know I'm kidding...
Nd then she ran away.
But her question didn't go out of my mind... I was in great fear. Really tensed wat if Allah na kre he doesn't like me??? But y won't he dislike me??? All through the years I've tried to be the way he liked...
O Allah please help me was all I could say...
Soon after this I heard the call of Azaan for Salah... I immediately ran to the washing area nd made my ablution(wuzu), nd started offering the Maghrib Salah... As I finished with the Salah I again started getting worried... I continued with the Awwabean Salah (Not a compulsory Salah but its offered after the Maghrib Salah) After which I made lots and lots of dua...
O Allah please make me look pretty in Ashar's eyes... O Allah paak please make me look more beautiful than ever... Please Allah paak make me look the best I could till date...
Please help me Allah paak... Please help me with everything... Don't make me do anything foolish in front of anybody please Allah paak please...
Aameen Summa Aameen.

I stood up and started getting ready... I closed my eyes thought about him... Nd then I chose a simple light blue floor length gown... Yes I'll wear this cuz it's his favourite colour.

The colours do remind me of many memories which we shared...

Sometimes it seems as if it was yesterday when I last saw him, like yesterday was the last time when we met... Was it really yesterday when he whispered I'll miss you in my ears... No it wasn't any yesterday... Five years have passed... I pinched myself to check if I was dreaming...
These five years I've lived a little less and fantasised a bit more...
I have been waiting for this day to come since the past five years...
Alhamdulilah I've lived this much, I can see him, feel him, talk to him...

O Allah I can't thank you enough for this...

Finally today is the day when I'll get back My Ashar...

The day has come when I can tell my heart out to him...

The day when I can finally say I love you too Ashar.

Ashar's P.O.V

Yippee!!!

Just an hour to go!!!

ND finally I'll be back iA... Back to my country, my people, back to home to family to friends... I wish this hour goes as soon as it can...

Damn excited to meet everybody...

There are some people who I haven't seen since ages...

Ah how can I forget about my plants
My little herbs nd shrubs must have turned into trees...

My room my lappy my video games everything
Oh m I behaving like a kid??? asked my inner me.

Behave properly Ashar Hussain now you are no more a kid you are a grown up man. Act wisely dude!!! I urged to myself...

I could see India my homeland my country on the flight's television...
It showed all the parts of India all the States from Kashmir to Kerala i.e the top most state nd the bottom most state nd then the cursor after moving around went in the centre where lies M.P or Madhya Pradesh... Nd with a light blinking on it... It marked Bhopal it's capital... The very place I miss... My hometown... Bhopal... The city of lakes... I missed it... I indeed missed it very badly...

Suddenly the lights turned on nd I could see Raja Bhoj international airport I could sense my plane landing there...

O... I can't tell how happy I am... It's been five long years I left Bhopal... Nd I could feel that right by having a glimpse of my hometown...

Wow it has developed a lot... I could get its development view right through the window...

Suddenly the flight attendant came n ask if I needed any help... I refused saying I'd manage on my own nd thanked her for asking... I took out all the things that I was carrying with me

I was overwhelmed landing on the airport... Wow wat peace was happiness I have right now I can't explain my feelings to anyone... I wanted to scream ye India here I am... But keeping the rules and regulations in my mind I had to behave properly... As I came towards the airport lobby I could see people waiting for there friends or relatives... I couldn't see anybody from my family none of my acquaintance were there... I was shocked... I expected the whole clan to be there or even more but nobody was there...
