Assalamu alaikum loves.

Be careful

Long and sad chapter ahead

Third Person P.O.V:
2 days..

Its been two days for Aadil and Ziana's funeral.

After coming back from funeral Aarafaat had locked himself into Aadil and Ziana's room.

And when everyone asked no not asked but forced him to open the door so he could eat something or else he will detoriate his health.*Samina's words not mine*

But he simply denied.
And eveytime they knocked the door
He just said
"Leave me alone."

But It had been two days now
Without food
Without water
Without sleep

But now thats enough
His wife is also tired
Tired of her husband's eays of grieving.
Tired of trying to handle a crying Bareera who is weeping and wailing continuously for her parents sad demise.
Tired of handling twins.

Although whole khan family is helping her.
But having him beside her would have been more easy.

So today she thought of something.
Something which will make her husband come out of the room
Come out of his grief.

She trirs opening door by knocking.
Yet she gets the same answer.

She leaves their 3 kids with amaid on the door of the room.

She goes to the adjacent room
And then goes to the balcony.

When she sees the door of adjacent balcony of the adjacent room where her husband is.
She climbs up on the railing of the balcony.
And slowly puts her feet on the other balcony's railing

When she is about to put her another feet on the railing she loses her balance and is about to fall.
But now she is hanging between two balconies.

Aaliya Zaim and Samina is sitting in backyard sees this and runs to her, while Samina and Aaliya is shouting for Tahzeeb to be careful.
Listenig to their shouts everyone comes into frontyard.
Ladies are still yelling and shouting.
Zakir:"Beta Tahzeeb what are you doing?"
Aasif:"Tahzeeb dont leave your hands.I will get the ladder"
Aatif also runs with her brother to get ladder.

This commotion get Aarafaat's attention.
To see he comes out into the balcony only to see his wife his love of life handing in the air.

Aarafaat:"Tahz..Tahzeeb what..what are doing? Gimme your hand."

To which she makes an angry face and looks at other side.

Aarafaat looks at her shock.

Still extending his hand to give her

Sabar:"Tahzeeb give him your hand."
Everyone agrees with her

Aarafaat:"Tahzeeb give me your now."
Tries to sound angry but fails miserably as he feels dizzy.

Tahzeeb:"first you promise me that you will eat and live like before.or else I will fall down."

Aaahhhh
Dont say lime that
Aarafaat what are you watching say yes and drag her up.

Everyone starts yelling like that.

Aarafaat:"okay fine I promise. "

The moment he said that everyone becomes silent.

Tahzeeb:"pinky promise"

To which Aarafaat rolls his eyes.
Aarafaat:"pinky promise. "
Tahzeeb:"no give me your pinky finger."*while extending her left hand and showing him her pink finger while balancing herself from right hand on railing hanging in the air.*

Aarafaat sighs but eventually extends his pink finger and makes a promise.

And then pulls her towards himself.

her feets touches the marble floor of balcony.

Sun is about to set.
Both of them are almost hugging each other.
Looking them together after two days everyone decides to leave them.

Aarafaat again feels dizzy and he is about to loose his balance.
Before he looses his balance completely Tahzeeb holds him.

And then she drags him inside and makes him sit on bed.

And she walks to the main door of ther room
She opens the door and takes the kids from maid while muttering thank you.
Seeing Aarafaat Bareera groggily walks to him and her in the air indicating him to pick her up as he usually do.

Aarafaat looks down in shame for ignoring her for 2 days.

Meanwhile Tahzeeb takes a tray full of food which samina has sent with another maid.

Tahzeeb closes door
And comes towards couch and sits while keeping tray on the table infront of the couches.
3 of the kids and their father are looking at her every move.

Tahzeeb smiles and opens her arms wide indicating kids to come to her.
To which bareera walks slowly towards her.
And the other two crawls to their mother.
Aarafaat looks carefully at his wife who is hugging three kids with a smiley face.
But her eyes are tellibg different story.
Those dark circlethose tired face is sending a pang of guilt to Aarafaat.

"Aarafaat"
His name rolls out of her mouth so softly yet anger is visible in her voice.
She pats the seat beside her as if telling him to come and seat beside her.

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu.
