Yours Truly ✔️

Chapter five ✔️

SHAHEEN'S POV
I sat on the breakfast table with my family and began to eat. I was happy to see a few changes in Bhai. He was now smiling more. I don't know whether he is acting or not. But I'm just glad to see him happy.

Qasim has now started to play with Zoya a lot. Now he had learnt how to say mami(aunt; uncles wife) he's forever behind her. She leaves no opportunity to spoil him.

"Oyyyyeeee! Shaheen" I was disturbed from my thoughts by my sweet husband. Yes Zakir is the best thing that ever happened to me. We don't live with Bhai here but we came to stay for a few days to welcome bhabhi.

"Breakfast" he said pointing at my plate. I ate my breakfast and went to check on Qasim knowing he's in safe hands.

"Mami chan I hab one chocolate peeeez! Mumma chay no" (can I have one chocolate please! Mum says no) he complained to Zoya. I watched them silently from the door.

"If mumma says no that means you can't have any but I can give you a tinny winnny bit" she said kissing his cheeks. "But first you have to give mami a tight hug and a kiss here" she said pointing to her cheeks. He kissed her cheeks and she gave him a piece of chocolate.

"Mami this is not fair! You said we can't get any and you gave him one!Im upset" came Hamza; Saima di's big son.
That's when Zoya noticed me at the door and Qasim came running to me with his lips full of chocolate. After hamza came the rest of the kids.

Shaziya, Nadia and Hamza were Saima di's children. Qasim and Saahil were my two boys.

They all gathered around Zoya and played with her.

ZOYA'S POV
The children insisted I played with them and now all of them are around me. After the chocolate fight they are were finally calm.

I love the feeling of these little children calling me Mami. I've really got attached to them in these couple of days. I don't know what I'll do when they leave.

Oh yea! Today is Sunday and I found out from my extremely great sister in law Ahna that Ahad stays home on Sunday's and they have family time. He makes breakfast for them and stays the whole day with them.

Ahana told me to call her Ahna as she sees her mother in me. She thinks her mother would be like this knowing she's never seen her mother. Tears rolled down my cheeks when she gave me that status and I was overwhelmed. Never ever have I felt this good and appreciated by people.

I do miss my family and wish I could connect with them. But when I asked Ahad to let me speak to them he denied.I didn't bother to ask him further questions as I've known him in these days he gets angry really fast.

My train of thoughts broke when Nadia called me. I drew my attention to them as they were deciding on what to play. I baked brownies today and they all enjoyed it. They finally decided what to play after a whole half hour of fighting.

They all were running and I was to catch them. Tears filled my eyes as I remembered how Talha, Husna and I would play these games together.

I ran and caught Shazia. "Nooooo"she exclaimed. We all giggled at her. She likes to be the perfectionist amongst all of them. Nadia on the other hand is a quiet one. Shazia can talk and talk but never gets tired. All of them are extremely cute and I love them all.

"Wooow, you guys found a new partner and forgot about me!" We all turned to find Ahad complaining with his hands folded on his chest and he was leaning against the wall.

"Mama, mama come play" Qasim shouted. "We all chan play toguter" he said in his cute babish voice. Ahad lift him up and threw him in the air and he giggled.

"Oh really!" Ahad said. "Come we all can play together" he said eyeing me. "I've work to do you guys carry on" I said. " No Mami you can't go we all will play together" Saahil said. I didn't argue as I didn't want to dishearten the little ones so I said ok.

I glared at Ahad and he smirked. We all continued to play and now it was Ahad's turn to catch any one of us. "Mama catch Mami if tu chan" Qasim said. Oh no! "Your mama can't catch me baby! Never ever can he" I said.

He smirked and ran to catch me. What's up with his smirks and why does he look so damn good. I tried to ignore his looks but he's a freakin GREEK GOD!

He held my waist from behind and pulled me towards his chest. "Caught you" he huskily said "Forever" he added. I shivered as his lips came in contact with my skin.

I glared at him and the children all started to clap. I stomped on his foot and he hissed. In all this he released me." Come on kids lets go have some juice and snacks!" They all started to run downstairs while it was only me and Ahad left alone on the balcony.

I started to Walk but haulted as he held my wrist. "Why do you need to be so cold towards me?" He asked. I wriggled my wrist out of his strong grip and turned to face him at a fair distance. "Answer my questions first" I snapped back at him.

"You can get your answers anytime but not at this moment! There are some reasons which I cannot tell you at the moment but believe I will tell you one day!" He said.

"The day you give me my answers consider me as your friend" I said and left. I ran in the hall and stopped. Tears were uncontrollably coming out from my eyes. "This is not me! I don't snap at people like this! Then why am I behaving like this? He said he will give answers so why am I pressurizing him to give me them instantly" I asked my self.

I stood there for a while and then wiped my tears and headed downstairs to the kids. "Ohooo! You guys took so long!" Ahna said with mischief twinkling in her eyes. I turned around and met with those blue eyes that were staring at me. I looked back at Ahna and just smiled and left to the kitchen.

I took the juice out from the fridge and placed it on the counter. I also took out the remaining brownies. "I'm sorry" I jumped and looked back. Ahad stared at me and then left.

Thinking about it! He's not that bad. I am really happy here and I do feel very loved. It's not that my mom never loved me. She loved me a lot but I never got that love form my dad. And because of my dad my mom was never able to express her love towards me.

Here everyone loves me and shows it through their actions. Over here is nothing like how I once lived. I slept on the cold floors after working so hard in the day. Here I sleep on a comfortable bed with AC and Ahad sleeps on the sofa. Don't think im bad and didn't offer him to sleep on the bed. I did but he denied. What can I do then? I have the freedom to do as I please here while out their I hesitated to even touch a glass. I am happy very happy with my new family.

I really need to behave properly with Ahad. Mumma will never like me talking so coldly and snapping at someone."where have your morals and teachings gone" my dads words rang in my head.

"Mami we are waiting" the kids shouted. I snapped out of my thoughts and took the tray and served these little munchkins. "Thoom sit sit" Qasim pulled me towards the chair. I sat and enjoyed these little moments with my lovely family who is now so close to my heart. I would never trade them for anything.

••••••••••••••••••

The room was full of laughters and giggles. Smiling faces and a happy atmosphere was in the Khan Mansion. But will this last long?

There was one person who silently watched his family with tear filled eyes. He prayed that it always stays like this forever and ever.
