Staying In One Room.

One Week Later.

It has been a week since Fahd and Hanan got married but they didn't stay in the same room because Fahd wanted to give her time to adjust to him.

But this didn't go unnoticed by Armaan who was getting more and more confused about why they are staying in two rooms instead of one.

"Dad, why is mamma sleeping in the other room instead of yours?" a curious Armaan asks Fahd while they were having breakfast.

"Habibty, its because..."

"Your dad snores so much that I had to sleep in the other room", Hanan tells her hoping that Armaan wouldn't ask any more questions.

"Okay, but dad could go to the doctor to get medicine and then you will go to sleep in the same room", Armaan tells her mother and then turns to face her father. "You should do that today before going to work, okay?" she says to her father who obediently nods.

They both knew that if they didn't come up with something, Armaan would question them again about why they aren't in the same room.

After finishing breakfast, Fahd and Hanan took Armaan to school while he kept thinking about what he would tell his wife that she should move into his room.

They didn't have to go to the office as Mandy and Freya warned them that if they do, they will have to face the consequences of their actions and they weren't joking.

"Go and have your honeymoon for two months and if you come back, your wife wont help you, Fahd. Now, make her and yourself happy", Mandy tells him.

"Okay but if theres..."

"No and no, we will not call you. We can handle it. Now leave." Freya interrupts him pushing him out of the door.

It has been a week since they said that to him. Ever since that day, he has been home trying to find something or anything to do but all he did was play with Armaan whenever she came home.

"Can we talk, Hanan?" He asked his wife as they arrived home from taking Armaan to school.

"Sure, what do you want to talk about?" she tells him taking a seat beside him.

"I think you should move in my room because Armaan wouldn't let go of that subject. And she might tell..."

"Her uncle Azuu. Yeah, I know. Okay I will shift my things into the room. I want to thank you for what you are doing for Armaan. Loving and caring for her like a father should..."

"She is my daughter, Hanan. I want to give her my last name if that's okay with you?" Fahd asks her surprising Hanan.

"She will be ecstatic to hear that and..."

"What about you? What do you feel about it?" he asks her holding her hand.

"I am happy and thankful to have you in my life. So thank you", she tells him making him smile.

Fahd slowly leaned toward her while looking at her lips. His hands were on her arms caressing them softly.

And the next second he kissed her lips making her heart skip a beat. Her arms automatically move to his shoulders pushing him toward her.

The kiss was tender and passionate, it was filled with love and care for her.

Fahd moved and put his forehead with his closing his eyes.

"I wanted to do that for a long time and now I get to do it again and again. I love you, my healer", he says kissing her forehead and making her smile.

"Why are you calling me that?" she asks laying her head on his shoulders.

"Because you and Armaan saved me when I needed the most. You saved me from the pain that I was constantly feeling in my heart, you made my heart to feel again. I love you and Armaan so much. You two are my world apart from my parents", he explained to her.

They stayed in silence for a while but Hanan needed to shift her things to Fahd's room which is the master bedroom before Armaan comes back home from school.

Hanan raised her head making Fahd confused as to why she did that.

"I have to go and put my things to the room before your daughter comes and asks questions again..."

"Now, she is my daughter..." Fahd says laughing.

"Well, yes she is. Now let me go before she comes back from school and asks her questions again. The same questions which you can't answer without me", she tells him trying to get away from his arms.

"Fine but I will help you transfer your things and it will take less time", Fahd suggests to her letting her get up from where they were sitting.

"Okay, then let's go..."

Hanan tells him by grabbing his hand and leading him to the room she was staying at.

After they finished shifting Hanan's things to the master bedroom, it was time for her to prepare lunch for her family.

"Now you will help me cook or you don't know how to cook?" Hanan asks him trying to hide her smile.

Hanan knew that Fahd lived alone and he might know how to cook real food and not the box ones.

"Yes, I know how to cook. Aunt Hayat taught me before everything happened between me and Azaan..."

"Okay, let's cook. You will help me chop and cut the vegetables that I need, okay?" Hanan interrupts him knowing that Fahd will be sad and angry if he remembers the past that destroyed their friendship and brotherhood.

"Cubes or slices?" he asks her.

Hanan show him which vegetables that are to cut cubed and which ones to be sliced.

"Okay, I will do that. I have a question to ask you. What really happened with Riaz to be the way he is now?" he asks her as they continue cooking lunch. "I shouldn't have asked that..."

"No, its okay. When we first got married, he would shower me with gifts that I didn't need and then almost two years later he changed. He started asking for money to get his drugs but at that time I didn't know that he was using it. And his parents did nothing to even help me. Azaan began to notice how tired I was when I used to go to work, and he used to give me less and less work because of that. The last straw was when he found me unconscious in the office, he immediately knew that I wasn't properly taken care by Riaz and his parents. And you know what happened next", she explains to him giving him a smile. "But I am thankful that I have Armaan in my life. And now..."

"You have me too. I promise you that I will never leave you and Armaan ever. In shaa Allah. You two gave me a second chance at everything, love being able to move on", He tells her giving him a smile.

Fahd could see the sadness in his wife's eyes, he immediately hugged her making her smile.

"I am fine, I promise. Now, lets finish cooking", she tells him. "Its almost time for Azaan to bring Armaan back from school", she added getting back to what she was doing.

Azaan wanted to spend time with his niece to give the couple a chance to be together.

"Aru, did you do what we talked about?" Azaan asks her.

"Yes, and it worked. I think they will do it before we go home. Uncle Azuu, am I a bad girl?" she asks him.

"No, why did you ask me that, princess?"

"Because that man didn't want me and he hurt me..."

"Aru, you are wanted by many people who love and care for you. Even you dad Fahd who loves you and your mother very much. And don't let negative thoughts in your mind, okay?".

"Okay. When will I see Zay again?" she asks him about her cousin.

"I will take you to see her as soon as I can. And I will ask your parents if you can sleepover", he tells her making her smile.

She might be a six-year-old girl but that's just an age.

My cousin needs stability and the one who can give her one is Fahd, he needs not to think of the past that destroyed our friendship and Armaan and Hanan will help with that.

It is time to strike at Kareem. I will not let him ruin my cousin's and my best friend's happiness.
