Chapter 17: 1| Naintara

Tu mohabbat se koi chaal tou chal

Haar jaane ka hausla hai mujhe.

≤≥≤≥≤≥

"Bhai," Mishal sniffed and wrap her hands around her brother's arms.

(Brother)

"Kisine kuch kaha hai tumhe?" Amaan, her second brother asked consoling her.

(Did someone said anything to you)

"Sabne mil kar hamara jeena haram kar diya hai. Ab ham aap log ko kya bataye? Hame tou bolne mai bhi sharm aa rahi hai," Mishal pouted as her nose and cheeks were turning red with each passing second.

(Everyone has made my life a living hell. Now, what should I tell you? I am feeling so ashamed now)

"Saaf saaf batau kya hua. We will always support you," Kamran, her eldest brother ordered and she slowly nodded her head.

(Tell us everything clearly)

"Aaj hamara result tha. Aur hamara bohot kam marks aaye hai. Biology mai tou hamare 75 aaye hai. Overall, I got 80 percent. Ammi ko mat batana," Mishal pleaded as her lips pursued into the pout.

(Today was my result and I got very bad grades. I got 75 in Biology and overall, I got 80 percent. Don't tell mother about my result)

"Kitni na shukar insaan ho tum. 80 aane pe itna ro rahi ho. Bahen, agar mere 50 bhi aa jaye na tou maine pure mohalle ko dawaat deni hai. Tumse badi na shukar insaan main aaj tak nahi dekha. Utho aur foran jaa kar shukrana namaz adaa karo," Her youngest brother, Ayaan said as he was too irritated by her.

(You are so ungrateful. You are crying for nothing. Even if I will ever get 50, I will give the whole area party. You are so an ungrateful, person. Go and pray the namaz)

"Mishi, tumne mujhe dara daala tha," Kamran patted her head.

(You scared me)

"Mujhe tou Hayder bhai pe rahem aata hai. Wo tumhe zindagi bhar kaise jhelenge," Amaan chuckled making her huff.

(I felt pity for Hayder's brother. How will he tolerate you)

"Unki tou baat hi mat kare aap log. Accha hai ke woh London mai rahta hai. Aur aap log dua kare ke unhe waha koi pasand aa jaaye. Hamari jaan chhut jaayegi unse. Unhe hi bada shauk tha hamse nikah karne ka," Mishal said making her brother's eyes widen.

(Don't even talk about him. It's good that he lives in London. You all prayed that he fell in love with someone there. I will be free from him. He was the one who wanted to marry me)

"Mishi," Amaan warned.

"Abhi chhoti hai hamari mishi. Jab badi ho jaayegi tou khud aqal aa jayegi," Kamran patted her head.

(She is still young. She will understand everything as time will pass)

"Badi ho jao, Mishi," Ayaan hit her arm playfully and left the room.

(Grow up)

≤≥≤≥≤≥

"Ohho, kabsa banaya jaa raha hai. Aaj kuch khaas hai kya?" Mishal mouth watered at the dish of chicken kabsa.

(Someone is making kabsa rice. Is something special today?)

Faiz, Hayder's younger brother entered the kitchen and opened the fridge to take out the bottle of water.

Mishal took a piece of roasted chicken and devour it slowly.

"Hayder aa rahe haina aaj," Her TayAmmi informed her with a smile.

(Hayder is coming today)

"Hain? Kyu? Aaj kyu yaha par tapak rahe hai wo," Mishal lifted her eyebrows and her mother glared at her.

(Why? Why he is coming here all of the sudden)

Faiz chuckled munching on the cucumber.

"Badtameez. Shohar hai wo tumhara. Zara bhi ehsaas hai tumhe iss baat ka," Her mother hit her arms.

(Shameless. He is your husband. You don't have an idea about the relationship)

Mishal lips pursued into the pout as she was rubbing her arms to ease the pain.

"Aaj tak na koi pappi di, naa hi koi jhappi di. Kaha se ehsaas hoga ke wo hamare shohar hai," Mishal said making a gasp escaped their lips.

Both of the ladies were in a state of shock and Faiz was rolling on the floor laughing.

(He never kiss me nor he hugged me. How will I feel that he is my husband)

"Tum Amma aur chachi ko heart attack de kar hi sukoon ki saans logi na," Faiz whispered in her ear making her mouth gaped open.

(You will give them a heart attack)

"Bhabhi, ye ladki mujhe maar kar hi sukoon ki saans legi," Her mother breathed.

(She will kill me one day)

"Arre, hamari mishi tou abhi bacchi hai. Waqt ke saath sab sikh jaayegi," Her TayAmmi consoled her mother.

(She is still young. She will understand everything very soon)

≤≥≤≥≤≥

"Mishal, ye wala joda pahenlo. Aur accha se tayyar ho jao. Hayder aa rahe hai na. Unko bhi accha lagega agar tum unke tayyar hogi tou. Aur unse tameez se pesh aana," Her mother passed her the white joda which has golden thread embroidery.

(Go and wear this dress. And get ready well. Hayder is coming today. He will also like it if you will get ready for him. And behave properly with him)

"Mamma, hame sharm aa rahi hai," Mishal said fidgeting with her fingers as blush was coated on her cheeks.

(I am feeling shy)

"Mishi, itni bhi hayaa ki zaroorat nahi hai. Hame tumhare baccho ko dekhna hai," Her mother said making her eyes widen.

(Don't be so shy. I want to see your kids)

"Haaye Allah, ammi kaisi baat kar rahi hai aap. Abhi ham khud bacche hai," Mishal blushed.

(Mom, what are you saying? I am still a kid)

"22 ki ho gayi ho tum. Mai jab 18 saal ki umar mai hi maa ban gayi thi," Her mother said making her eyes widen.

(You are 22. I was 18 when I got pregnant for the first time)

"Kitni utawli thi aap shadi ke liye. Astaghfirullah," Mishal tch and her mother twisted her ear.

(You were so desperate to get married)

"Ham aapne maa baap kabhi inkaar nahi kiya karte the. Unki har baat maana karte the. Aur ladkiyo ko jaldi shaadi kar leni chahiye," Her mother explained.

(I never decline anything to my parents. I used to obey them. Even girls should get married soon)

"Theek hai. Ham samajh gaye. Ab aap hamara kaan tou chhode," She groaned, and her mother left her ear.

(Okay, I got it. Now you can leave my ear)

"Mishal- ab tum badi ho gayi ho. Aur tumhara nikah bhi ho chuka hai. Hame tumse bohot si baat discuss karni hai. Ham tumhe sahi waqt aane par batayenge," Her mother said in a serious tone and she nodded her head even though she didn't understand anything.

(You are not a kid anymore. And also, you are married. I have to discuss so many things with you. I will tell you everything when the time will come)

"Ab tum jaa kar acche se tayyar ho jao. Phir aa kar lunch kar lena," Her mother ordered and she chirped excitedly.

(Get ready now and then have a lunch)

Mishal took a warm bath and change into the white anarkali. She wore her oxidized earrings and red glass bangles. Her gaze fell on the velvet box and she opened it. There was a beautiful diamond ring that was customized. It has a delicate design and a red stone in the middle giving it the elegant look. It was her wedding gift that he gifted her before going to London.

She let her hair open and curled her lower hair.  She did minimal makeup and put on her white georgette dupatta.

"Sajna hai mujhe sajna ke liye. Sajna hai mujhe sajna ke liye," Mishal sings the song as she was putting the highlighter on her cheeks.

"Hayder, tayyar ho jaaye apna dil haarne ke liye. Badi kismat waale hai aap. Baithe bithaaye ek khoobsurat si pari mil gayi hai," Mishal flipped her hair proudly.

(Get ready to lose your heart. You are very lucky. You got such a beautiful wife)

When she left her room, she heard the song playing on the blue tooth speaker.

The song was main tere ghar aaya. Mai aaya tujhko lene. Dil ke badle mai dil ka nazraana dene.

Mishal did the bhangra at the song as she was moving towards the living room.

"Gaana kyu band kar diya?" She asked her brothers and they become silent.

(Why you all turned the song off)

Mishal turned around and air seems to be knocked out of her lungs. She was speechless at the moment.

Hayder Mir was standing there with his hands in his pocket. The sight was enough to make her embarrassed. Mishal hides behind Amaan as she was clutching his brother's hands tightly. She lowered her gaze as she was embarrassed.

Hayder smirks running his thumb on his lower lips. He was looking handsome as ever. He was wearing a black shirt and the top few buttons were undone. The sleeves of his black shirt were rolled up to his arms. His hair was messy as a smirk was playing on his lips.

He couldn't help but stare at the hoor in front of him. Her cheeks were flushed and her thick long eyelashes were kissing her cheekbones. His gaze was fixated on her soft plump lips. At that moment, all he wanted to do is hold her in his arms and kiss the hell out of her.

Hayder let out a groan knowing that his wife won't even come near him. An amused smile flick over his lips when he saw her fidgeting with the corner of her dupatta hiding behind her brother.

"Assalamu alaikum Mishal," Mishal was startled when his deep raspy voice fell in his ear.

Why his voice sound so sexy? Mishal thought.

Mishal nodded her head as her throat bobbed.

"Aap ko salam ka jawab dena nahi aata?" He asked making her breath hitched.

(You don't know how to reply to salam)

"Walaikum Assalam," Mishal stuttered.

"Mishal, zara room mai aana," He ordered and move away from there before she could even say anything.

(Come in my room)

Her mouth gaped open and she was looking at her brothers with shock.

"Munh tou band karo, Mishi," Faiz chuckled.

(Close your mouth)

"Aapke Bhai ko kya ho gaya hai. Kitne besharam ho gaye hai," Mishal said looking at Faiz as she just recovered from the shock.

(What happened to your brother? He is so shameless)

Her brothers burst into laughter as they patted her head.

"Meri masoom bahen," Ayaan pulled her cheeks and she huffed.

(My innocent sister)

"Gussa mat karo. Aur Hayder Bhai ke paas jau. Wo tumhe bulaa rahe hai. Jaa ke dekho, kuch kaam hoga," Amaan said and she hesitantly nodded her head.

(Don't be angry. And go to Hayder's room. He is calling you. Maybe, he needs something)

Mishal moves towards his room and knocks on the room twice. He told her to come in and she entered his room.

"Aapko kuch kaam tha?" Mishal lowered her gaze as she was fidgeting with her fingers.

(You want something)

"Nahi," Hayder said in a cold tone making her mouth gaped open.

(No)

"Tou phir ham jaa rahe hai," Mishal was about to turn when he caught her wrist.

(Then I am going)

A gasp escaped her lips as she collided with his chest. She shut her eyes tightly as she was clutching his shirt.

"Tum mujhse itna dur kyu bhaagti ho. Mai tumhe khaa nahi jaaunga," Hayder said in a soft tone making her heart flutter

(Why you always run away from me? I won't eat you)

"Idhar dekho," Hayder lifted her chin and placed a soft kiss on her head.

(Look at me)

Mishal slowly opened her eyes as she was slowly feeling relax in his arms.

Hayden took her by surprise as he wrapped his arms around her and buried his face in her neck.

"I missed you," He nuzzled his nose in the crook of her neck making the giddy feeling appear in the pit of her stomach.

Mishal sigh when he placed a soft kiss there. She was feeling a different kind of emotion running through her veins when he is near her.

Hayder sat on the bed and pulled her in his lap. Her hair was covering her face and he slowly tucked it behind.

"You didn't miss me?" Hayder asked playfully raising his eyebrows.

"Ham ko to aapki bohot yaad aati thi. Ham tou har waqt aapko yaad karte the. Ham dua karte the ke aap kab hamare paas aa jaye. Aapke begair saans lene bhi bohot mushkil hai," Mishal said in a dramatic tone and an amused smile spread across his lips.

(I always missed you. I missed you every single time. I always prayed that you come here soon. It's difficult to breathe without you)

"Tou phir kabhi call kyu nahi ki? As far as I remember, I was the only one who called you every single time," Hayder raised his eyebrows and she bit her lips.

(Then why come you never call me)

"Ham isi liye aapse baat nahi karte the. Agar ham aapki awaaz sunenge tou hamko aur bhi zyada yaad aaigi," Mishal lied and he chuckles.

(That's the reason I didn't call you. If I would hear your voice, I would miss  you more)

Hayder took out something from his bag and gave it to her.

"Hamare liye hai?" Mishal asked to confirm.

(Is it for me)

"Zaahir hai. Tum meri biwi ho tou tumhare liye hi hoga na," Hayder said in amusement.

(Of course, you are my wife. It will be for you)

Mishal blushed and opened the gift. There was beautiful pair of diamond studs by Tiffany & Co. And there was also a box of Belgian chocolate.

"Thank you," Mishal smiled and he kissed her forehead.

"Ab ham jaaye?" Mishal asked biting her lips.

(Can I go now)

"As you wish. Dekhte hai kitna bhaago gi mujhse," Hayder chuckled and she moved away from there as soon as she can.

(Let's see how much you will run from me)
