Chapter 10

"See, it's so peaceful here. This is my favorite place, I love it!"

"The sky looks so beautiful at night. The stars in the sky makes it look prettier."

"All this is just so beautiful!" She twirled around and Asad looked at her and smiled.

"Just like you!" He said, making her smile.

"It's your birthday, don't you want to do something special?" He asked.

"Being with my handsome husband, in such a beautiful place, what else do I want?" She smiled looking at him.

"Dad!" Anayra called. Asad came out of his thoughts and turned back and saw Anayra standing near the door of the terrace.

"Anayra!" He said with a smile.

"What happened? You look sad! Are you missing someone?" Anayra asked softly.

"Come and sit here!" He said, and she came towards him. Everytime Anayra smiled, she reminded him of her.

"Yes, I miss my angel!" Asad said as he looked at Anayra.

"Angel? They exist?" Anayra asked out of curiosity.

"Yes mine did! She was just like you." He said with a faint smile.

"Like Anayra? Where is she?"

"Yes, just like Anayra! She is far away from me now. I miss her!"

"Why doesn't she stay with you?" Anayra asked cutely.

"Angels don't stay with bad people!" He replied as he turned away.

"You are not bad. You are the best, and I am sure she will come back to you, I promise!" Anayra said, bringing a slight smile on his face

"Now don't be sad please, I can't see you sad!" Anayra said softly.

"If you're sad, Anayra will also be sad!"

"And I can't see my princess sad, right?" Asad said. Both of them smiled, Anayra hugged him.

"You like seeing the stars!?" Anayra asked excitedly.

"Yes, I do! My angel loved being on the terrace at night, watching the stars. I used to be with her."

"My mama also loves seeing the stars. She says that the sky looks really beautiful because of the stars. They shine so brightly!"

"My angel was that star in my life, because of whom, my life was so beautiful!" Asad whispered as he remembered all the moments he spent with her.

"Dad! Let's go down?" Anayra asked bringing him out of his thoughts.

"Yes, let's go!" He said and both of them came down.

"Anayra where were you?" Ayan asked as he saw her.

"I was with dad, on the terrace. We all will play some game?" Anayra asked looking at Asad and Ayan.

"First all of you have dinner. Your mama called me, she told that there is no one at home, so once her work is done, she will come to pick you up!" Anayra said as she served dinner.

"Mama, tell her to come a little late, we didn't play today!"

"Baby, it's already so late, and both of you have school tomorrow right? We will call Anayra on sunday, you can play the whole day, but now come and have your food!" Anaya said.

"Okay mama!"

"Di?" Maahi asked confusingly, as she saw Minal enter her cabin.

"Yes, I decided to join back. I will come with you to the event tonight."

"Anayra? Where is she?"

"She is in her friend's house. Once the event ends, on the way home, we will pick her up!"

"It's a business party today, in Arsal's company itself! We need to leave now." Maahi said.

"Oh, then I will tell Arsal to get Anayra there itself, we all can come home together then!" Minal said as she dialled his number.

"Arsal, can you get Anayra to the party today? She is in her friend's house."

"Yeah sure!" Arsal replied and kept the call.

"Anaya, I am taking Ayan and Anayra along with me. You remember the business project we signed? It was with Anayra's father itself. So now I have a business party, Amaan has already reached there. I will also go now." Asad told Anaya

"Asad at this time?" Zehra asked as she came to the main hall.

"Yes! I will take a leave. Ayan, Anayra come we will go!"

"Come home early, don't be out till late night!" Zehra said.

"Please mama, don't show this care towards me. You never cared about me, so please!"

"Ayan, Anayra come fast!" Asad walked towards his car.

Zehra loved her sons, but she always did things that she wanted, even if that meant to ruin their happiness. Even after seeing her son's condition for all these five years, she was still reluctant to give up the thought of getting Asad married to Tara.

She had promised her best friend, that she would get Asad married to Tara. But Asad had a love marriage with someone else. Zehra never accepted her.

Asad had asked Zehra not to talk about her in front of the family because all she used to say was that she left her for someone else, and that she never loved Asad. He truly loved and trusted her, he knew that she wouldn't leave him.
