"Aapi hame aapse kuch zaroori baat karni hai?" Faiza said to her beloved elder sister while entering her room.
(I want to talk to you about something important)
Sehrish closed her books and concentrate on her.
"Ammi ne hame kaha tha ke aapse baat karne ke liye. Iss liye ham idhar aaye hai," Faiza said and laid on her bed.
(Mom told me to talk to you. That's why I am here)
"Aapke liye rishta aaya hai. Aapko koi Harz tou nahi? Ladke ka naam Imran hai," Faiza said in a mischievous tone.
(The proposal has come for you. I hope you won't object. The boy name is Imran)
The books involuntarily slipped her hand but she regained her composure.
"Hame koi pasand nahi hai. Ammi jisse bolungi ham unse shaadi kar lenge," Sehrish said tucking the stray of hair behind her ears.
(I don't like anyone. I will marry the guy according to my mom choice)
"Accha. Waise ammi ko tou ye rishta bohot accha laga. Par hamne mana kar diya. I want the best for my sister," Faiza said in a mischievous tone.
(Oh, Mom liked the proposal. But I rejected)
"Kyu?" Sehrish asked with a shocked expression.
(Why)
"Wo ladke ka do saal se kisi ke saath affair chal raha hai. Ham nahi chahte ke aapki shaadi kisi aise ladke ke saath ho. Aap kitni seedhi aur masoom hai. Aap tou ham se koi baat nahi chuppati hai. Hamne tou ammi ko fauran mana kar diya," Faiza siad making her guilty.
(That man is having affair with someone for over 2 years. I don't want you to get married to someone like that. You are so innocent. You don't hide anything from me. I instantly decline the proposal for you)
"Faiza, mohabbat karna gunah hai kya?" Sehrish asked biting her lips.
(Is it a sin to love someone)
"Gunah tou nahi hai. Par galat zarur hai. Mohabbat wo sab kuch nahi hota. Aap ko apne shouhar mai dost dhoondna chahiye. Jo aapko samjhe, jo aapko judge naa kare. We can survive without love but not without a partner. If there is a friendship in couple, they can live happily," Faiza uttered while she was lost in her deep thoughts.
(It's not a sin but it's wrong. There's nothing called love. You should find a friend in your husband who will understand you and never judge you)
Sehrish smiles at the maturity and thoughts of her sister.
"Aapko pata Arsh aapko bohot pasand karte hai. Aap mane ya na mane par ye baat sach hai. I have seen the love for you in his eyes. Wo aapke acche dost bhi hai. Aur kya chahiye aapko?" Sehrish said making her stiff.
(You know Arsh also like you. I know you won't agree but this is true. He is a good friend of yours. What's else do you want)
Faiza turned towards her and let out a deep sigh.
"Aapi hame sab pata hai. Ham itne bewakoof nahi hai jitna aap hame samajhti hai. I know what he feels about me. Maybe, Arsh is infatuated with me. Mohabbat jesi cheez hoti nahi hai. Ham iss liye Arsh ko saaf saaf mana kar diye hai. I don't want to give him false hope. Ham kabhi nahi chahenge ke koi dusra rishta banane ke chakkar mai hamari dosti kharaab ho jaaye Arsh se. Arsh hamare bohot acche dost hai. I just want him to be happy that's why I am making everything obvious that I don't felt anything towards him," Faiza said playing with the ring in her fingers.
(Sis, I know everything. I am not that foolish)
(There's nothing called love. I have clearly stated to him everything)
(I will never want to destroy my friendship with him. He is my best friend)
Sehrish was beyond stunned at her answers.
"Aap sahi kah rahi hai. Hamne Kabhi aise socha nahi," Sehrish smiled.
(You are right. I never think about it like that)
"Waise ham aapse baat nahi kar rahe hai. Aap bohot buri hai. Ham aapki sagi bahen hai. Phir bhi aapne hame nahi bataya ki aap kisi se pyaar karti hai. Khair, hame kahi se maloom pad gaya warna aapne tou hame bhanak bhi nahi padne deni thi," Faiza grumbled while crossing her arms over her chest.
(Well, I am not talking to you. You are so bad. I am your real sister. Then to be you hide such a big thing from me. Well, I came to know about it. You wouldn't have let me know otherwise)
Blood rushed to her cheeks when she realized that she knows everything.
"Faiza- aap ko ye sab kese pata chala?" Sehrish asked shooking her thoughts away.
(How do you know about it)
"I have my sources," Faiza scoffed.
"Please, ammi ko mat batana. Wo kya sochengi hamare baare mai. Aap hamari pyaari si bahen nahi hai," Sehrish lovingly said holding her chin.
(Don't tell mom. What she will think about me. You are such a beautiful sister)
"Ham tou ammi ko zaroor batayenge. Pyaar kiya tou darna kiya," Faiza said in a dramatic tone making her sister roll her eyes.
(I will tell mom. There's nothing to be scared of)
"Faiza, zyada drama na karo. Agar aap ammi ko nahi batayengi tou ham aapke liye aapka favorite noodles nahi banayenge," Sehrish blackmailed making her stomach grumble.
(Don't be dramatic. If you won't tell mom, I will make your favorite noodles)
Faiza realized that she was very hungry and she needs to eat something. She was badly craving Hakka noodles.
"Accha. Ham nahi bolte ammi ko. Par aap jaiye aur hamare liye noodles banaiye," Faiza said stretching her limbs.
(Fine, I am not going to tell her. But you go and make noodles for me )
"Aapi, ham soch rahe the ke ammi ko kya jawab de? Aap shaadi ke liye taiyyar hai?" Faiza joked making sehrish hit her with the cushion.
(Sis, I was wondering what to tell mom? Are you ready for the marriage)
â¤â¥â¤â¥â¤â¥
"Wo log kal hamari sehrish ko dekhne aane wale hai. Agar sab kuch sahi hua toh shaadi ka din bhi nikal lenge," Anisa Begum said proudly but only she knew how hard it was for her to think about it. She has raised her daughters all alone and it was difficult for her to get them married.
(They are coming to see my daughter tomorrow. If everything goes well, we will fix the marriage date)
Sehrish played with her fingers in nervousness while she was blushing furiously.
"Aaj kal tou sabko love marriage ka shouk hai. Par hamari sehrish ne bina ladke se mile, haa kar diya. Apni ammi par kitna bharosa hai," Anisa Begum said lovingly while holding her daughter's hands.
(At this time, everyone is obsessed with love marriages. But my sehrish said yes to the proposal without meeting the guy. She believes in me)
Faiza choked on the glass of water and a laugh escaped her lips. She tried her best to conceal the smile which was forming on her face.
"Daant dikhana band karo. Aur hamare saath market chalo. Bohot saara kaam hai. Kal waise bhi ladke wale aane wale hai," Faiza rolled her eyes at her mother's instructions.
(Stop showing your teeth. And come with me to the market. We have so much works to do. The boy family is coming tomorrow)
"Ammi, I am on my periods. I can't go to market with you. Hamara already pait mai bohot dard hai," Faiza said with irritation filled in her tone.
(My stomach is paining)
"Tou ham sehrish ko le kar jaate hai. Ghar par akeli ho tou darwaza acche se band kar dena. Khaana fridge mai rakha, microwave kar lena," Her mother instructed to which she lazily nodded her head.
(So I am taking sehrish. Make sure to lock the door properly. There's also food in the fridge, microwave it)
Faiza went to her room and laid down on the bed. This is going to be a long day.
â¤â¥â¤â¥â¤â¥
Faiza groaned as she was having cramps. It was her first day and she was beyond irritated. Her whole body was aching and she wants to hit someone badly.
She searched for the painkillers but she was unable to find them. She was alone at home.
Faiza let out an irritated sigh and called him. He attended the call in a very first ring.
"Arsh, ek favor karoge?" Faiza breathed.
(Can you do me a favor)
"Aiza, kya hua? Sab theek haina?" Arsh asked with a concern.
(What happens? Is everything fine)
"Bas mere pait mai bohot dard hai. Tum mere liye medical se painkillers leke aauge?" Faiza asked biting her lips.
(My stomach is paining a lot. Can you bring painkillers for me)
Arsh let out a heavy breath and raked his fingers through his messy hair.
"Iss liye kahta hu ke roadside chowmein mat khaya karo. Par tumhe toh meri sunni hi nahi hoti. Aiza, fikr karta hu mai tumhari. Kabhi meri baat bhi maan liya karo. Dushman nahi hu mai tumhara," Arsh said in a soft tone making her heart skips a beat. His words somehow manage to carve his name in her mind.
(That's why I forbid you to eat roadside food. But you never listen to me. I am not your enemy. I am just worried about you)
"Aur tension mat lo. Mai medicine le kar aa raha hu," Arsh said with a heavy sigh and ended the call before she could say something else.
(And don't worry, I am bringing the medicine)
Faiza tied her hair in a bun and change it into a loose blue kurti and palazzo. She put her white shawl around her shoulder. She was feeling fresh after taking a warm bath.
She took the towel and wipe her hair. The doorbell rang and she went to open the door.
Arsh's eyes went wide when she opened the door. She was looking so innocent and beautiful that he couldn't take his eyes off her. Her pink cheeks were glowing while her thick long eyelashes were kissing her cheekbones.
Her hair was wet. The water droplets were traveling from the neck. Arsh's throat bobbed and he averts his gaze away.
He scratches the back of his neck in nervousness. Arsh was cursing himself for thinking about her like that.
"Andar aana ka iraada hai ya bahar hi khada rahna hai?" Faiza asked as sarcasm was dripping from his voice. He rolled his eyes at her statement and step inside.
(Are you intended to come inside)
"Aunty nahi dikh rahe? " Arsh asked and she informs him that her mother went to the market.
(Aunt is nowhere to be seen)
Arsh gave her the medicine he bought. Faiza gulped down the medicine with the help of water.
"Aiza, I am sorry. Maine kal kuch zyada hi react kar diya. I was not in the right state of mind. Kal abbu se kisi baat par argument ho gai thi. My anger took the best in me and I ended up shouting at you," Arsh said scratching the back of his neck while he averts his gaze away.
(I overreacted last now. I argued with my father)
"Sab theek hai na? Koi baat hai tou mujhse share kar sakte ho," Faiza asked with concern.
(Is everything alright? You can share anything with me)
Arsh raked his fingers through his hair and sat on the couch.
"Actually, mai MBA ke saath koi bhi company mai internship practice bhi karna chahta hu. Aur abbu chahte hai ke mai unki company saath mai handle karu. I know very well that I won't be able to learn very well in Dad's company. Mai abbu ki company handle karne se pahle uss layak banna chahta hu. Mai do paise kamata nahi hu, puri company kese handle karunga?" Arsh sighed in frustration.
(I want to do an internship in some other company while studying MBA. I just want to be worthy of working in his company before handling it. But he is not listening to me)
Faiza gave him a reassuring look and sat beside me.
"You are just 21. Tumhari padhai bhi abhi complete nahi hui. Abhi tou tumhe bohot padhna hai. Aur rahi baat internship ki tou, wo bhi tumhe aasani se mil jayegi. Itna acche records aur grades hai tumhare. I hate to admit it but you are very smart. Tum kaho tou mai uncle se baat kar leti. Tum koi aur company mai internship karoge tou tumhe bohot experience rahega. Bohot kuch sikhne milega tumhe," Faiza reassured him to which he passed his charming smile.
(You didn't even finish your studies yet. You can get an internship easily as you have amazing grades. I can talk to your dad for you. If you will work in some other company, you will get experience. You will learn so many things)
"Tum kabse itni mature ho gai?" Arsh asked with a chuckle to which she flipped her hair proudly.
(When did you become so mature l
"Waise tumhe painkillers kyu chahiye the? Tumhari tabiyat tou theek hai na? Tum kaho tou mai tumhe doctor ke paas lekar chalta hu," Arsh asked with a worried laced in his tone.
(Why you need painkillers? Are you alright)
"Tum ladke itne dumb kyu hote ho?" Faiza asked scrunching her nose while he ignored her.
(Why you men's are so dumb)
"I bought something for you," Arsh said and passed her the big brown paper bag.
Faiza's eyes went wide when she saw a few boxes of cheese burst pizza, coke, choco brownie ice cream, and a jar of Nutella.
"Tumhara mood kharab tha na?" Arsh said averting his gaze away and she awed.
(You seem to be in a bad mood)
"Tum kitne cute ho," Faiza said pinching his cheeks while he glared at her.
(You are so cute)
"Chalo Netflix par kuch accha sa dekhte hai," Faiza said and they both went to her room.
(Let's watch something on Netflix)
"Kya dekhna hai?" Arsh asked opening her laptop while she switches on the AC.
(What's there to watch)
"Chalo Vampire Diaries dekhte hai," Faiza advised and sat on the bed.
(Let's watch Vampire Diaries)
"Yaar, kitni dafa dekha hai. I don't know why you are so obsessed with the guy who has an ugly smirk plastered on his face all the damn time," Arsh said with a groan making Faiza hit him with the cushion.
(We have watched it many times)
They started watching the show while taking a bite of pizza.
"Yaar, Delena for life. They are just perfect for each other," Faiza muttered in a dreamy sigh.
"Excuse me, Stelena is way better. They are not toxic like Delena. Their love is pure and real," Arsh argued.
It was just a show with a female lead named Elena. She fell in love with a guy named Stefan. But after she met his brother, she realized that she loved his brother Damon.
"Excuse me, it's real. Damon was the bad guy but Elena changed him. Stelena didn't even last long," Faiza scoffed.
"I don't why you guys are obsessed with bad boys. Jab baithe baithe accha ladka mil raha hai tou bhi nakhre hai. I don't why girls are so keen to make a bad boy a good human being," Arsh said with irritation.
(They have so many tantrums)
"Stefan was better of as her friend. But Damon was the perfect man for her," Faiza said doing some actions in the air.
"Kuch bhi. Accha ladka mil gaya tou dost bana lene ka. Par shaadi tou usse hi karna hota jo tumhe bhav bhi nahi deta ho. Acche ladko ki qadr nahi hai," Arsh said making her eyes widen. It felt like he was talking about himself.
(Rubbish. Whenever a girl finds a good boy, they make them a friend. And they will marry the guy who doesn't even care for them. They don't care for good boys)
"Are you alright? Tum bohot zyaada hi senti ho rahe ho," Faiza chuckled.
(You are becoming emotional)
"Par tumhe friend zone ke baare mai itna kese pata hai? Aur mujhe zara ye batau ke tum aisa kyu react kar rahe the," Faiza questioned narrowing her eyes.
(How do you know so much about the friend zone? And tell ne why were you reacting like this)
"Because I am in love with you-" He breathed.
