Saad's pov :

As soon as I opened the door, I was engulfed in a tight hug by someone. That person literally jumped on me like a rabbit. And who else could it be other than my best friend, Ali.

"Assalamualikum to you too Ali." I greeted him with a choked laugh, hugging him back.

"Oh, Walikumussalam yaar! I missed you so much! Tumne to aane ke baad bhi nahi bataya ke tum aa gaye ho! Aisi bhi kya masroofiyat? Sab theek to haina? Wo to bhai mujhe raaste me mil gaye the to unhone mujhe bataya ke tum wapas aa gaye ho, warna maine to bas tumhare call ya message ka intezaar hi karte rehna tha." He released me from his hug with a frown.

(You didn't even tell me that you returned! Where were you busy? Everything okay? I met Maaz on the way and he informed me that you are back, or else I would still have been waiting for your call or message.)

"Haan ji sab theek hai, alhamdulillah. Bas batane ka mauka nahi mila isliye bata nahi paaya." I smiled, internally scolding myself for forgetting to inform him.

(Yeah, everything is alright. I just didn't get any chance to inform you.)

"Accha. Kam se kam I missed you too to keh dete. Kitne boring ho tum yaar!" He scowled, making me grin at him cheekily.

(I see. At least you could have said I missed you too. How can you be so boring, man?)

"Aur tum isi boring se bande ke bohot acche dost ho. Jab maine tumhe miss hi nahi kiya to kyu kahu mai?" 

(And you are a very good friend of this boring person. When I didn't even miss you, why should I say that?)

"Yaar kaise bande ho tum? Tumse to kuch kehna hi bekaar hai." He sulked, looking away.

(What kind of a guy are you? Telling you anything is useless.)

"Accha chalo bahar baitho, mai bhabi ko bata ke aaya ke hamara dushman aaya hai, aur wo acche se khatirdari kare warna mai naraaz ho jaunga." I laughed, teasing him further.

(Okay go and sit outside, I will inform bhabi that our enemy is here, and she should take good care of you or else I will be upset.)

"Haa bada dushman aaya haina?" He imitated me with a scowl before heading out, managing to earn a hearty laugh from me.

(Yeah your enemy came, right?)

._._._.

"So you're telling me that you are married?" He exclaimed in shock and disbelief once again.

"Yeah, I'm trying to tell you that only." I rolled my eyes in irritation while taking a sip of my tea.

"Forgive me man, but I can't believe that the most boring person in our school just got married, and that too secretly. Why didn't you call me? Even I would have enjoyed it! What kind of a friend are you? You didn't even call your best friend!" He complained, looking at me in annoyance.

"You must be enjoying listening to all this, if you would have been in my place then you would have gotten to know!" I glared at him.

"Okay so now I understand! You didn't miss me because your wife was there with you. Awwwh, you should have told me this sooner. I would have understood. By the way, how is she? Is she okay? And what does she look like?" Ignoring my comment, he looked at me eagerly.

"Maar khaoge tum mere haath se! She is your bhabi, so stop thinking about her." Glaring at him, I ran a hand through my hair.

(You will get killed by my hands!)
