How can she do that?

His ammi loves Shifa a lot, then why did she agree to marry her off to that man?

The man who is of her father's age.

And with that Danish Ali, brother of the man who left them behind years ago.

The man who didn't care about them whey his brother throws them out.

Now he wants to make a relationship with them by marrying a girl who is of his daughter's age.

And how can Shifa say yes to him?

These were his questions which Zaeem wanted to ask from both Zubaira and Shifa.

First that Aneesha whined to spend her time with him, handing her daughter to Shifa and when he came back everybody was sleeping.

And now he is standing alone in the kitchen, regretting the deeds he did 3 years ago.

Since that day he left the house, he was never at peace.

Everything reminded him of Shifa, crisp of his shirt, his watch which was selected by Shifa. His midnight craving for pasta or coffee. His alarm which was used to set by Shifa, his files, etc, etc.

He never realized he was habitual of Shifa, because she cared for him like a wife.

And didn't he care for her too?

Every time when someone tries to bully her, every time when she wants clay for her sculptures.

And when her father left her, did he help her because her father helped them.

Nooo....

That time he thought he was pitying her.

No, that was not pity, that was his love for her, but he didn't understand at that time.

It takes three months for him to understand that he also loves her, like she does, but still he was in a dilemma.

What will people say that he has a mute wife?

What does his friend and colleague say?

It took three years to understand that Kuch toh log kahenge, logo ka kaam hai kehna. (People will definitely say something, because that's what they do)

And when he came back, he got the biggest shock of his life.

Shifa's marriage to someone else and that someone is his uncle, seriously uncle.

For the person he came back, that person will leave him.

Does Shifa don't love him anymore?

You deserve it Zaeem, you really do.

For some minutes he can forget that Shifa can't become his, but how can he let her marry that uncle.

Zaeem's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of someone's anklet.

He looked at the person and his eyes softened a little.

He stares at her eyes, he can see many questions in them.

Like.....

Why did you come back, Zaeem?

Why did you leave me alone?

Why was my love fun for you?

Why did you never love me?

And Zaeem wanted to answer her questions, but he just stared into her eyes.

"You didn't sleep yet?" Zaeem asked, breaking the ice between them.

Shifa comes out from her trance, looks here and there in embarrassment, and shakes her head in no.

"Will you make coffee for me?" Zaeem asked her softly.

She just nodded her head lowering her eyes and came forward to the stove to make his coffee.

Zaeem again lost in nostalgia, when he use to ask her to make coffee and they use to talk a lot sipping their coffee, well actually he use to talk and she used to nod or shake her head, sometime she laughed at him, sometime she use to raise her eyebrows, and sometime she used to scrunched her nose, her face was more expressible than his words, and he used to like that, he didn't understood then but..........now he does.

"Why are you doing this marriage, marrying a man who is 30 years older than you?" Zaeem demanded her, the accusation was dripping from his mouth, and Shifa just stared at him for a few moments then looked away.

"Someone is forcing you, ammi, he, tell me Shifa, at least I have the right to know?" his voice was heavy. This time Shifa just shook her head in a no, and looked around the cabinet to find coffee powder, it was kept in most upper shelves.

She forwarded her hand, but still the coffee powder was out of her reach. Zaeem senses her problem and moves forward and comes behind her back and stands very close to her so that her back is touching his chest. He kept one hand on her waist, and raised his other hand to take out the coffee powder. Zaeem turned his face toward her neck and took a deep breath taking her sweet smell in his system.

His lips were slightly brushing her shoulder blade, He was not in his sane sense now, and Shifa's state was not less than Zaeem. Seeing their close proximity, Shifa jerked her hand to push Zaeem away from her, but accidentally the hot coffee water fell on her hand and she shrieked loudly.

"Shifa" Zaeem shouted and grabbed her hand, but she shoved him away.

"Shifa, your hand is burning, let me..." Zaeem said worriedly, but Shifa jerked him and went toward the fridge and took out some ice. She looked at the fridge where a pen and notebook was kept.

She took a deep breath, and wrote something on a notepad, shoved it in Zaeem's hand, and ran away from there.

Zaeem looked at the notepad "You are a na-mehram for me, so please don't touch me, this is right of my soon-to-be husband only."

"I will not let you marry him, Shifa. I will not let you destroy your life like this, I learnt to love you by staying away from you, I will not let that oldie kill my Ishq (Love)" Zaeem said adamantly tearing that page.
