66. Love Was In The Air

“Mannat!.... Mannat beta! come down” I heard Mom calling me and I hurried downstairs, her eyes were shinning bright and face had a wide smile.

“Mannat! come and look at your Nikah dress girl” Khadija said excitedly and my eyes fixed upon the white dress placed half on the couch half in Mama’s lap.

“mannat! why white yar?” I was looking at the dress in complete awe when Rohail said making a face.

“Saba aunty said that it was Hussain bhai’s choice… ub koi to khas bat ho gi he white mein, q Mannat?” Khadija elbowed me and I smiled.

The dress was definitely beautiful without any doubt and yes! I know it must be his choice….i slowly touched the dress and don’t know why a smile spread across my face.

“here!” before I could say anything Khadija draped the white duppatta over my head and I felt heat started emitting my body.

“MashaAllah! Mannat bibi!... ap to sajh jaen gi nikah mein” I heard fakooran aai saying and I smiled looking at her.

“Cahchi am going to meet Hussain, ap ne kuch bhijwana to nai?” Rohail got up.

“Arey han! Hussain ka suit bhijwana tha mager wo to designer Sahiba k pass se aaya he nai abhi” Mama said smacking her head lightly.

“To chaliye lets go and collect it… phir wahan se direct chalen ge rest house” Rohail said and Mama shook her head.

“Mannat beta! call her and ask if it is ready? She is taking too much time” Mama said shaking her head disapprovingly.

“Chachi! Designer sahiba is the only Sali as well, so she must be making something special. It will take some time.” Khadija said sipping her tea and I smiled.

“Mama! Rida had texted me in the noon, she said that you can collect it in the morning” I told her.

“Morning? Beta! tomorrow is Nikah…. At least we should send him the suit by tonight” Mama said worriedly and I put my hand on her shoulder.

“Mama! that’s okay….dont worry, all will be fine, tomorrow collect it and take it to his place” I assured her and she sighed shaking her head.

“Chachi! Phir mujhe ijazat dejiye… mein mil aaon zara Hussain bhai se. ap ko kal subha le jaoon ga.” Rohail said and Mama nodded her head.

"Rohail! bring Salaar back with oyu" Khadija said and Rohail nodded his head.

Rohail stepped out of the lounge and my gaze went down to the dress placed in my lap…. Touching it gave me a strange kind of happiness… joy that cant be explained in words.

“Mama! did aunty come?” I asked and she shook her head.

“nai beta! Waqas came with Aayan…” Mama told me and I smiled nodding my head.

I don’t know since last few days… I couldnt stop smiling, I guess I was compensating those 6 years when I couldn’t smile. Time to adjust the loss now.

“Khadija where is Salaar?” I asked feeling the silence around us.

“Aayan k sath jane ki zid ker raha tha… Waqas bhai took him with himself” She said…. “in fact I was about to call there, kaheen pareshan he na ker raha ho” Khadija added and got up to call.

“Mannat beta! did you talk to Waqas about him and Rida?” Mama asked and I shook my head.

“No Mama! but I told Hussain about all that and he promised me that he will fix everything” I told her and she sighed deep.

“I just pray that everything goes well in their lives…” Mama said and I put my hand on hers, assuring her.

“Hussain hai na Mama, wo sab theek ker de ga” I said smiling and she smiled back touching my cheek.

“I know… I know Hussain sab theek ker de ga wese he jesey us ne tumhari zindagi mein sab thee ker diya Mannat     !” she said, kissing my forehead making me smile even wider and I hugged her tight.

*************

 After so many years I was here… I was here where once my fantasies were built, where I have seen the most beautiful dreams…my eyes shifted to his picture at the back post of my bed, my heart skipped a beat and a warm smile spread across my face.

My dress was placed on my bed and I was staring at it for like last whole hour… couldn’t get my eyes off. It was damn beautiful, slowly I held the dupatta in my hands and draped it over my head. Looking into the mirror I felt a tickle deep down in the pit of my tummy.

I headed to the closet and opened it up…. Found his jacket placed there, I took it out and wore it, suddenly his fragrance engulfed me completely… I wonder so many years have been past still I could smell him in this piece of clothe.

Suddenly I heard a strange kind of sound…. I slowly headed to the door and placed my ear on it.

“Mannat!” what the eff! What's he doing here?

“Hussain?” I called and heard a sigh.

“Hayeeee! Shuker khuda ka ap ko hamari aahen sunai deen” he flaunted in full on filmy way and I rolled my eyes.

“What are you doing here hero?” I asked, my heart started beating fast.

“Hero has come to meet his heroine, now open the damn door” he said slightly kicking the door and I rolled my eyes.

“How did you know I was here?....” I asked narrowing my eyes, it must be Khadija.

“Rohail told me” he said casually and my eyes went wide.

“What? Rohail? He is out of his right mind…. I cant open the door. You go back” I said, crossing my arms and he kicked the door once again making me jump up.

“Kholo! Nai to torr doon ga….you don’t know me, am an excellent stuntman han!” he flaunted once again.

“Hussain! for God’s sake stop showing off, okay!” I said forcefully…. “and secondly baron ne mana kiya hea, nikah se pehle no milna julna… so you go” I could feel him rolling his eyes dramatically and I chuckled.

“Hasi aa rai hea buhat? Ek bar derwaza kholo phir batata hoon” He said seriously and I laughed again.

“Hussain! I wont open the door… jao!so jao ja ker sakoon se” I said and he didn’t reply.

“Hussain!” I called his name as he didn’t say anything for a couple of moments, that I felt like an eternity.

“hm!” I heard his voice.

“What happened?” I asked leaning with the door, I could feel his heat… his presence there against the door.

“Sakoon ki neend to pata nai kab se nai soya mein” my heart skipped a beat at his tone…. “I want to sleep peacefully Mannat!” he added slowly.

“Shehry! harami insaan… meri pills chupa di hen us ne” he cursed Shehry.

“Pills?” I asked and he again kept quiet for while.

“Hussain?” I felt my palms sweating a little, it was his heat or maybe the heat building up inside me… due to his leather jacket I was wearing.

“I couldn’t sleep Mannat! for long….” Hussain said slowly and I gulped down…. “I … I had to take pills, they helped a little” he added.

“Mannat!” he called my name as I couldn’t utter a single word, a tear escaped my eye and I wiped it away.

“Am sorry!” I whispered and he sighed deep, I felt he rested his head on the door.

“you want me to forgive you?” he asked after a couple of silent moments, his tone serious.

“Yes!” I replied.

“then open the door and let me sleep with you” he said even seriously and my eyes went wide, as I gasped.

“kholo derwaza” he whispered again…. “okay! I promise, I will behave myself” he added mischievously and I chuckled, shaking my head.

I raised my hand and un locked the door slowly, just stood there unable to open the door and even he didn’t try to open it.

“Aaa jaoon?” he asked softly and I smiled.

“tumhen rok sakti hoon mein?” I chuckled and he opened the door, his smiling face appeared in front of my eyes. he just stood there scanning me up and down and I cursed myself inside, I was still wearing his jacket… his eyes met mine and I found a smirk on his face.

I stepped back a little as he stepped in and shut the door with his foot, his gaze still on my face.

“Seems like somebody was missing me already” he said with a deadly smirk and i bit my inner lips to avoid smiling.

“Somebody? Who…? I cant see anybody here except me” I acted oblivious and he rolled his eyes.

“Ahan! So you wernt missing me?” he asked taking a step towards me and I gulped down the nervousness.

‘Nops! Bilkul nai…you were here with me already” I said smiling and he narrowed his eyes. I slowly looked at my bed and his gaze followed mine.

“there… on my bed already” I said and he just kept on looking at his picture for a couple of moments then his gaze shifted on me.

“Mannat! this is…. This is craziness” he said in surprise and I pouted, slapping on his arm.

“hey! Don’t call it craziness… this was my 16th birthday present from Mama and Baba” I said smiling wide and he just looked at my face, his expressions unreadable.

“What?” I asked and he stepped towards me, making me step back at once…. “Hussain! you have promised me you will behave yourself” I added eyeing him and he sighed.

“why the hell are you so cute?” he asked seriously and I rolled my eyes…. “and after that you expect me to behave my self? are you even serious?” he added dramatically and I chuckled, blushing.

“Somebody is blushing” he said and pinched my nose.

“oouu!” I slapped his hand and he chuckled shaking his head.

“so you liked the dress?” he looked at the bed and I smiled nodding my head.

“loved it” I said…. “its just.. just perfect! Thanks” I added and he narrowed his eyes.

“thanks?” he made a face making me giggle… “like, seriously?”

“yeah! like you have bought it for me… more over you must have gone through a lot of shops then finally you must have selected this one… so its like you must have wasted your energy man!” I said and his eyes fixed on my face.

Suddenly he held my hand in his making me froze for a while and spun me round, my back bumped into his chest and I shut my eyes tight.

“the day when you will wear it for me… and you will be mine forever, sari energy wapas aa jae gi” he rested his chin on my shoulder as he whispered and I smiled.

“Manant! I have something for you” he whispered again and I opened my eyes he was looking at me in the mirror.

Slowly his hands reached down to the edges of his jacket that I was wearing and he held them in his hands… he looked up back to my face ans if asking for permission and I kept quiet, unable to comprehend what was going to do.

He slowly pulled the edges a bit and pulled it down from my shoulders making it slipped away, suddenly I felt cold as he threw the jacket on the bed, looking at my face. my gaze was fixed on him…. as he put his hand in his pocket and took something out.

“ close your eyes” he whispered near my ear and I melted in his heat, closing my eyes slowly.

Suddenly I felt something cold over my neck and I raised my hand touching it….his fingers touched the back of my neck giving me shivers deep down….. smile appeared on my lips slowly as I opened my eyes and found a beautiful silver necklace in my neck.. with a red stone in the middle. It was beautiful….

“I love you” he whispered snaking his arms around my waist and I placed my hands on his arms. He kissed the back of my neck softly making my breath uneven.

“I love you more Hussain!” I whispered back as he looked at my face in the reflection of the mirror smiling warmly at me… ‘its so beautiful” I added looking at the necklace and he kept on smiling.

“Not more than you” he said and I chuckled, shaking my head.

“Am not that beautiful Hussain!” he frowned a little… “seriously, am old now… and you know I have a white hair too” I added and he just kept on staring my face.

“and I promise my love for you will increase with every white hair you are going to have” he said sweetly making my heart flip flop inside and I smiled, looking down to his arms… where I was making circles with my finger.

For so many moments we just stood there in each others arms when I looked at his face, his eyes were closed and face almost buried in my neck.

“So you took pills for sleeping?” I asked slowly and he didn’t move.

“hm”

“promise me you wont take them any more” I said and he pulled up a little and looked at me.

“promise me you will never leave me… in nights specially” he added with a wink and I felt flushed… “promise me that you will always be there for me… with me. And I promise you back I wont take them” he said seriously and I smiled, slowly I turned around and looked into his eyes… placing my hands over his thumping heart.

“I promise Hussain! I promise I will be there with you… always” I whispered and he rested his forehead over mine, a smile was there on his face.

“But tonight you have to sleep alone man!” I said and he looked at me at once, pouting and I chuckled.

“nooo” he whined and I shook my head… “that’s unfair mannat, promise ho gai to bus ub you cant break it” he said like a child and I sighed.

“you are even worst than Salaar” I said and he frowned a little.

“oye! Don’t call him your jan okay” he eyed me making me frown…. “you cant call this to any one else than me” he said firmly making me giggle.

“Bachey se competition? Saram karo” I slapped his arm lightly and he smiled.

“bacha ho ya bara….. bus keh diya to keh diya” He said stubbornly and I rolled my eyes.

“Acha baba!chalo ub jao… its too late Hussain” I said trying to push him a little.

“Dil nai ker ra” he said lazily and put his head over my shoulder, putting his weight on me and I stumbled a little holding his arms.

“Hussain! you are heavy man!” I said when he didn’t care to move.

“Aadat dal lo hone wali begum” he pulled up a little and before I could respond he pecked my cheek, his stubble touched my face giving butterflies in my tummy and I giggled a little.

“go Hussain!” I said looking down, trying to hide my blush and he chuckled lightly… pulling away he stepped back and I looked up at him.

“Rok lo rok lo… I know you don’t want me to leave” he winked and I giggled, shaking my head, I took steps towards him as he was taking steps backwards to the door.

“Good night!” I whispered reaching to the door.

“Good night jan-e-man!”he flaunted putting his hand over his heart making me melt and I smiled..... "happy last night alone....kal se, I promise I will be the best of the company" he winked as my eyes met his and I felt heat started emitting my body.

“uff! Stop doing this Mannat!... or else am gonna kiss the hell out of you right here right now…” my eyes went out of there sockets as he said in a very serious tone… I was biting my lip I guess…. he took a step towards me and I put my hand on his lips hurriedly, my eyes still wide open.

“Hussain! shut up and leave” I said and he raised his eyebrow.

“you do it on purpose I know you… sataney ka acha tareeka hea” he removed my hand from his mouth and I tried hard to hold my chuckle.

“you just wait….okay!” He stepped back and said like a warning making me frown…. “ruko tum, kal bataoon ga” he added and I stick my tounge out at him.

“Dekh len ge” I said firmly and he narrowed his eyes.

“Dekh lena” he repeated my words and with a wide smile on his face he headed back, leaving me on the door watching him as he moved towards the stairs and skipping two at a time he ran down stairs.

“tomorrow is a big day Mannat!” I sighed deep as I shut the door and almost fell on my bed burying my face in the pillow… trying to control that heat emitting out of my body.

 “Oye! Let me in ladies”I was back from a long shopping day and wanted to have some rest when I got to know that the ladies have invaded my room for their practice I yelled as they didn’t open the door… music was playing on loud volume and Minahil, Maha and Khadija were doing dance practice inside.

“Hey! Waqas! have you seen minahil?” Shehry came to me and asked, I pointed towards the door and he looked at that.

“What? She is dancing?” his eyes went wide in shock… “my God! She is too much man!” he rolled his eyes.

“Hey! Open the door…. Minahillll” he yelled out.

‘man! I think you are being too possessive about all this… calm down” I tried to calm him and he glared at me.

“tere bachey hone wale hon ge na… to poochoon ga” Shehry eyed me and I rolled my eyes.

“oye kholo derwaza” he kicked the door and suddenly the door burst open, Hussain was glaring at us with his hand on her waist.

“Saley! Tu kia ker rat ha ander?” Shehry asked, shocked.

“nach ra tha… tujhe nachna hea? Aa ja” he said, irritated and we stepped in.

“Minahil!... calm down baby” Shehry stepped towards her who was holding Maha’s hands in hers and doing a couple dance, I chuckled… they looked funny.

“What? Am fine Shehry!” she groaned…. “its not my first time” she eyed him and spun Maha during the dance.

“oye! Araam nal” Shehry hurried towards her as she was about to trip a little.

“Shehry! mere bhai…. chal tu nikal yahan se” Hussain tapped on his shoulder

“Shehry! am okay” Minahil touched his face assuring him and he sighed.

“Khawateen se behes… Allah meri toubah!” he touched his earlobes and we laughed at his expressions while Minahil hugged him wrapping her arms around his torso, he hugged back.

“Ub ye kia ho raha hea?” Hussain poked Shehry and asked seriously.

“Votii hea meriiii…..jo chahe karoon Tu kun jal ra hea? ja putter Nikah ka wait ker” Shehry made a kissy face at him and he rolled his eyes.

“guys! I need to sleep… am tired” I whined as they kept on pulling each other’s legs.

“ye hotey hen farigh log….sone k ilawa bhi kuch ker liya karo Waqas bhai!” Maha pointed towards me shaking her head and I smacked it…

“Acha? Kia karoon tum bata do” I eyed her and she rubbed her chin as if thinking.

“Shadi ker lijiye” Khadija said cheekily and I looked at her at once, unable to think what to say.

“is se behter mein farigh he rahoon” I rolled my eyes and headed towards the door… “guys am going to sleep, wont eat dinner” announcing, I stepped out.

I looked for a spare room and finally found one… stepping inside I took off my jacket and throwing it on the couch I almost fell on it. closing my eyes I tried to sleep but don’t know why I wasn’t sleepy any more.

Its like 6 years since I last saw her… I could never get her out of my mind, don’t know what was so special about her? maybe her anger… or her tantrums. I chuckled thinking about her…. they way she used to roll her eyes, they way she raise her eyebrow… she used to look so like me, the way she used to fight. They way she held me in her arms.. they way those tears rolled down her cheeks when I left her there.

I opened my eyes and sighed deep… slowly I took out my wallet and there she was… her smiling face, that cute little dimple on her left cheek. I touched her face and a smile spread across my face…

“everyone is here today… except you Rida! I wish you were here too with me… for me” wiping the slight wetness away from the corner of my eye I held my wallet in my hand and closed my eyes. 

RIDA’S POV

“Aunty you liked it?” I asked as she looked at the off white sherwani with light embellishments in dark brown and beige… I designed for Hussain and Aunty smiled nodding her head. I sighed in relief.

‘thanks God!” I sighed.

‘Its definitely too good Rida! and Hussain bhai per to alaaw lage gi. You have nailed it” Rohail said and I jerked my collar up, he laughed at my expressions.

“So, tum bhi chalo hamarey sath… we are gong to give it to him” Aunty said and I thought for a while, don’t know why my heart wanted to say yes… but something was there stopping me.

‘Yeah! come on you should come” Rohail said and I looked at him with my mouth half open trying to refuse… “chalo then, you two come out am waiting in the car” he added and got up.

“Rida beta!” Aunty put her hand on mine as I looked down… “beta! you have every right to stay happy… whatever you and Waqas did was completely heartbreaking” she added softly and I cursed Mannat inside for telling her everything.

“I was talking to your Mom some days back and she was hell worried about you” she said and I looked up at her face… “do you think this is what your parents deserve?” she added and I shook my head lightly.

“chalo phir aao mere sath and talk to him… everything is clear now Rida! ub kia problem hea?” she said and I kept quiet.

‘Aunty may be… maybe he has moved on and he isn’t interested in me any more” I said as pain pooled up inside me.

‘after 6 years… still you two are alone it clearly shows that neither of you has forgotten anything” Aunty said and I looked at her, my eyes were teary now.

“Come on ! stop crying now… and set things right in your life. Come on! Chalo” She got up looking at me and I smiled weakly. We headed to the exit and found Rohail watching his wristwatch.

Reaching there at the rest house, Rohail stopped the car and we stepped out. I was holding the huge box in my hands when Rohail hurried towards me and took it from my hands, I smiled and handed it to him… feeling light. We moved inside and Rohail showed us the way.

“Arey! Assalam-o-alaikum! Bhabi ap? Aaiye aaiye” I saw Asif uncle on the door with a huge smile on his face, we entered and I saw Aunty was there…

“Rida beta!” she looked at me surprised and we hugged.

“How are you?” she asked and I smiled.

“am fine aunty… buhat Mubarak ho ap ko” I said and she kissed my forehead.

“wah Wah! Kia bat hea… subha subha!” we heard Shehry chirped coming into the hall and I smiled at him.

“Assalm-o-alaikum Aunty!” he greeted Nafeesa aunty then Hugged Rohail and sat down next to me.

“Kesi ho? Yad aa gai lagta hea piya ki” Shehry whispered bending a little towards me and I eyed him to shut up.

“Saba bhabi! This is Hussain’s suit…. Am so sorry couldn’t bring it earlier” aunty said looking at the box Rohailed placed on the table.

“Kesi baten ker rahi hen bhabi? Sherminda mat kijiye…”aunty said with a smile.

“in fact you shouldn’t have done this” Asif uncle said and Nafeesa aunty shook her head.

“Q? Mannat apki beti hea wesey he Hussain mera bhi to beta hea, Asif bhai” Nafeesa aunty said and they all smiled.

“Shehry beta! go and call Hussain” Asif uncle said to him and he stretched his arms lazily.

“Yar! Rida.. jao zara bula lo usey… am tired” he looked at me making a fcae and I rolled my eyes.

“jahan k sust insaan ho tum qasam se” I slapped his arm lightly…. “Where is his room?” I got up and he pointed towards the lobby.

“3rd on the left side” he said and I headed out.

I stepped towards the room and slowly turned the knob… peaking inside I found the bed was empty, I stepped inside looking around I found him sleeping on the couch. His feet were going coming out of the couch and face covered with his jacket.

I slowly stepped towards him, I was about to pull the jacket away his face when my eyes went down on the rug… his wallet was lying there open and what made my eyes went wide was the picture inside it. for a moment I couldn’t move or believe what I just saw.

“Hussain!” it was an utter disbelief for me, what the hell my picture was doing in Hussain’s wallet?

“utho!... get the hell up man!” I nudged him by his shoulder but he dindt get up, aaah! Sleepy head. I groaned inside.

“Hussain k bachey utho!” I kicked hard on the couch.

“What the hell man!” I was about to pull the jacket away when he grabbed my wrist in his grip and I fell on my knees near the couch, thankfully not over him…. ‘oouch!” it pained in my knees as I fell down on the hard floor.

“Waqas!” I almost yelled out as he angrily pulled the jacket away his face, his eyes went out of there sockets as he saw me near him.

“Ri.. Rida?” he stammered in disbelief and for a moment I felt my heart stopped beating.

WQAS’S POV

“What the hell man!” somebody shook my shoulder, the touch was soft I took out my hand grabbed the wrist….

“oouch!” I heard it was a girl, as she uttered in pain and I pulled my jacket away with a jerk.

“Waqas!” my breath caught up in my throat and voice got stuck inside as I saw her near me… her wrist was in my grip and her eyes wide open… equally shocked and stunned.

“Ri.. Rida?” my voice stammered as I uttered her name, I couldn’t believe she was there in front of me.

“I … I thought its.. its Hussain!” she stammered, her breath fanned my face as I was still on the couch and she was on her knees near me.

“umm no..” I slowly let go of her writs and got up straight on the couch, I felt her gaze was fixed on me…. “umm Hussain slept on the bed I guess and I fell asleep here” I said, looking down. suddenly my eyes went on her hand, she was holding my wallet.

“shittt!” I cursed in my breath and she hurriedly put it back on the table and got up. I stood up as well… I knew she must have seen her pic.

“so… so you are attending the wedding?” I asked, trying to sound all normal while inside I was jumping up and down.

“yeah! …” she replied looking at my face and I smiled, moving my hand in my messed up hair… God! Such a mess I must be looking right now. I felt embarrassed.

“you are looking fine… its okay Waqas” she said softly and I looked up at her face, my hand halted in my hair as I saw a cute smile playing on her lips… my heart skipped a beat.

“yeah ! I know… I always look perfect” I flaunted and she giggled making my heart go crazy.

“how are you?” I asked and she looked down at her hands.

“am.. am fine” she said slowly then looked up at my face… “how are you?”

“am good” I said, lying.

There was a long silent pause when we just stood there… with she looking at her hands and I staring her face.

“so… bachey wachey bhi sath aayen hen ya nai?” I asked seriously and she looked at my face at once.

“kis k bachey?” she asked and I chuckled.

“tumharey or kia parosi key?” I rolled my eyes and she chuckled, shaking her head.

“I didn’t marry Waqas!” she said and I took a step towards her.

“mein ne shadi ka kab poocha?” I said into a whisper and she looked at me with her eyes wide… she giggled, slapped my arm lightly Ahhh! Man… I just loved it.

“I … I have missed you” she slowly whispered and I felt my heart beats quickened.

“I know…” I said and she looked at me questioningly… “of corse, mujhe bhool pana aasaan kam thori na hea” I said raising my eyebrow and she chuckled, shaking her head.

“But I didn’t miss you” I said carelessly and for a couple of moments she didn’t reply… “itni girlfriends hen yar… kis kis ko banda yad karey” I added making a face but she still kept quiet. I wanted her to react… but she didn’t.

“un sab ki tasveerein le ker ghoomtey ho wallet mein?” she asked seriously making me speechless and I looked at her face at once, she looked a little hurt.

She looked into my eyes for a moment then turned around to leave when I hurriedly grabbed her wrist and she stopped.

“Waqas! leave me.. I have to go” she tried to pull her wrist back, I slowly pulled her back and she looked at my face. I could feel her eyes going wet. I raised my hand and touched her cheek… she closed her eyes slowly.

“Wallaet mein itni jaga nai hoti na k sab ki rakh sakoon” I said seriously and she opened her eyes at once, I tried hard to hide my grin when she narrowed her eyes and gave a punch over my chest making me chuckle.

“looking into somebody’s wallet is bad manners….” I said and she raised her eyebrow at me.

“you are not a somebody Waqas” she whispered and my heart skipped a beat, I snaked my arm around her waist and pulled her more into me making her gasp a little.

“then who am I? hum ap k hain kon?” I asked and she smiled looking at her hands placed over my chest. She was blushing hard, looked beautiful.

“You look beautiful Rida!” I don’t know how it slipped my mouth and she at once looked up at my face…. “and trust me its not only my wallet, in past 6 years I couldn’t scratch your image from my heart” I added into a whispered and a smile appeared on her face.

“Neither could I waqas!” she whispered back looking into my eyes. I raised my hand and wiped the wetness away from the corner of her eyes… she closed her them slowly.

“I want to meet your parents Rida!” I said softly and she at once opened her eyes.

“q?” she asked innocently and I chuckled lightly.

“Shikayat kerni hea tumhari” I said as my grip around her waist went tighter.

“what did I do?” she asked acting oblivious and I rolled my eyes.

I rested my forehead on hers and she closed her eyes…“you stole my heart girl” I whispered…. “Marry me Rida!” I added and she pulled back a little looking at my face in shock.

“don’t you think its too early?” she asked and I narrowed my eyes.

“chalo! To….” I looked at my wristwatch…. “kuch ghantey baad propose ker loon dobara?dopeher tak?ya sham tak?” I asked seriously and she laughed.

“Mom and dad would love to meet you” she said smiling and I smiled back.

“I know… personality he aesi hea meri” I boasted and she shook her head smiling.

“I have missed you a lot girl… seriously, I felt like nothing… so incomplete once you were gone” I looked deep into her eyes and she raised her hand slowly touching my face… giving me strange feelings.

She rubbed her thumb softly over my stubble and I pulled her in hugging her tight…. she wrapped her arms around my neck as she hugged me back.

“I love you” I whispered in the crock of her neck, holding her tight.

“I love you too Waqas!” she whispered back and I smiled.

“oye! Begertaaaaaa!” suddenly we heard somebody yelled out and we literally jumped up, looking around I found Hussain was standing there with his hands over his waist.

“Haya bech dali tu ne saley!” Hussain stepped towards us and Rida blushed hard biting her lower lips, trying to hide her grin…. “kia ker rat ha bachi k sath?” he suddenly fisted my collars in his hand and I looked at him in shock…what the hell man!

“oye! Leave him… you idiot!” Rida slapped his arm…. “don’t you dare say anything to him” She added pointing her finger at him and he let go off my collar, making a face.

“I came to wake you up… where were you?” Rida asked, putting her hands on her waist… “I brought your dress man! Itni mehnat se design kia hea mein ne” She added and Hussain rolled his eyes.

“yeah! I have seen that….i have seen that girl!” Hussain said trying to calm her down… “and I loved it, seriously too good” he added and Rida smiled warmly.

“Am going ….chalo u baa jao bahir tum dono bhi” she said and turned to leave when Hussain held her hand and stopped her.

“Oye! Ruko…. You stay here” he said seriously a smile was there on his face and Rida frowned a little… “itne time bad bad miley ho… I don’t want to separate you two, once again” Hussain added looking down.

“Khotey! Who said it was because of you?” I asked and he looked at me.

“I know man! You… you just wasted you 6 years for me” he said remorse was evident in his tone… “I was a jerk… seriously, the biggest jerk ever” he said shaking his head and I put my hand on his shoulder.

“Idher aa!” I pulled him in and hugged him… he hugged back tightly.

“Am sorry man!” he said and I shook my head.

“Its okay!.... am happy Hussain, am happy for you man!terey gham se bara n ai tha hamara dard” I said and he pulled back, looking at me then he looked at Rida who had  a tear on her cheek.

“don’t cry yar! Am sorr

“Shut up!” Rida cut him in the middle pointing her finger at him…. “mein us waja se nai ro rahi…” she shook her head… “ you two looked really cute together and am finally seeing you people like this after so long” She said as another tear escaped her eye and Hussain smiled, so did I… “senti ker diya mujhe” she wiped the tears and I chuckled.

“Wow! Senti plus mental… perfect Jodi hea tum dono ki yar” Hussain pointed towards us and Rida shot an eyebrow at him while I smacked his head laughing.

“Bhabi ji! Give some rest to these innocent eyebrows…” Hussian said seriously to her…. “tum dono k bachon ka bhi yei hal hua to hamarey bachon ki to Allah he khair karey” he added looking up and we laughed.

“Waqas! Hussain! beta come one… breakfast is here” we were laughing like idiots when Asif uncle called us.

“Yeah! Dad coming……” Hussain yelled back and headed towards the door.

“Dad! Waqas or Rida ne nai kerna naashtaaa, bhook piyaas urr gai hea dono ki” Hussain yelled again as he reached to the door and looking back at me he winked making me chuckle again.

“Sala! Sudhrey ga nai” I shook my head and looked at her, who was staring my face with a smile on her lips.

Waqai mein na bhook thi na piyaas… usey dekh ker, usey pa ker sab mil gaya tha… I was feeling complete once again after such a long time.
