"Really?" Kehara asked before lifting Amal up from the bed.
"Yeah. Sufyaan said she is taking some desi medicine or something of that kind."
"Is that safe?"
"She said it's totally natural and harmless. I don't know much about it. Even he didn't know."
"Oh. I will talk to her and see if she is taking a right thing or not."
"Yeah."
"You know I feel guilty for reacting like an idiot." Kehara said before sitting on the bed and keeping Amal on her laps, who was sleeping peacefully.
"You always do that. Which incident are you talking about?" Aman joked, trying not to laugh.
Kehara narrowed her eyes at him,"You were better before we got married."
Aman smiled before asking,"what were you saying?"
"You know how I reacted when I didn't get pregnant for 2 years."
Aman frowned,"how did you react?"
Kehara raised her eyebrows,"you are so self-involved!"
"I really don't remember."
"How can you not remember I was to...." Kehara stopped when she realised something. She pressed her lips together and looked away.
Aman realised something happened so he narrowed his eyes this time before asking,"what is it?"
"Nothing."
"Kehara what is it?"
"I didn't tell you about my insecurities."
Aman frowned. He waited for few seconds before asking,"How did you react?"
"I was freaked out! But now I feel guilty for being so silly. Zyva got a real situation and I was just."
"Yeah you overreact a lot."
Kehara narrowed her eyes again making Aman smile again. He sat next to Kehara before smiling again,"you are still upset about the whole thing?"
"How can I not be upset? We are talking about my brother here. I mean we are talking about both Zyva and my brother but you know what I'm trying to say, right?"
"Yes, I know."
"I always thought he would make a great father and he is so good with our kids. It's just so frustrating."
"I can understand. I was upset too but Sufyaan made me feel different. He is surprisingly so positive about it."
"He is positive about it but he is upset. Really upset."
"I know but he is not showing that."
"Because he doesn't want Zyva to think it's a big deal. My brother is a perfect husband." Aman raised his eyebrows but didn't say anything because he knew it was not the time to fight for the title of best husband. "I feel guilty to have kids you know." Kehara said before closing her eyes for a seconds.
"You don't have to. It's not your fault."
"I know. But it's not fair. He deserves kids more than I do."
"You are being harsh on yourself for no good reason just like Zyva."
"You think she is being harsh?"
"I think so. I mean I think maybe she is overreacting."
"No! She is just worried! It's too early for her to be stable. She will be fine soon."
"Ok."
"Girls are just a little sensitive. You husbands should understand."
"We will if we know what exactly is going in your mind."
"How can you not know what is going in our minds? You are going through the same situation. Same things should go through your mind!"
"But it doesn't. We don't go that deep."
"Well then you should."
"We can't. That is one of our super powers."
Kehara rolled her eyes, looking like her brother. "Husbands are so annoying."
"Better than being confusing."
"I'm sleeping." Amal said suddenly.
Aman and Kehara looked at her immediately. Kehara raised her eyebrows and Aman frowned.
"When did you wake up?" Kehara asked.
"When you were being loud."
"Go back to sleep darling." Aman said before giving a kiss on her forehead.
"Don't talk." She said before covering her eyes with her hands.
"Ok ok. I will drop her in her room and then we can continue our argument."
"I will sleep before you come back, so save yourself time and don't think about the best reply you can give me."
Kehara raised her eyebrows again. Aman smiled before giving a quick kiss to Amal on her left cheek. " Good night darling."
"Good daddy."
Aman and Kehara smiled. Aman then looked at his wife who was narrowing her eyes again. He smiled before giving her a kiss on her right cheek. "Good night Kehara."
"Get lost."
"I love you too!"

"And she also told me few things that I cannot say out loud." Zyva said.
"What are those things?" Noor asked, her eyebrow raised.
Yamina rolled her eyes,"Noor keep your mouth shut."
"Yes, please." Kehara said making a face.
"I'm just curious."
"Keep your curiosity to yourself." Kehara said.
"Zyva you are sure you are not causing more problems, right?" Yamina asked after a while.
"Yes, yes. Don't worry."
Noor and Kehara exchanged glares before looking at Zyva again. Everyone was worried the way Zyva was reacting and wanted to do something to stop her but they didn't want to upset her so no one stopped her. In last two months she had tried a lot of things and so far nothing worked.
"I think this will work. I'm so excited."
Noor smiled,"InshaAllah it will."
"Mumma I'm hungry." Iiman came running in the room.
"Come let's eat something then." Noor said standing up. "Amal,Manal, Keyaan! Come let's eat." Noor shouted.
In less than a minute all the kids came running in the living room.
"What are we eating?" Keyaan asked immediately.
"Guess." Noor said smiling.
"Pizza!" Keyaan exclaimed.
"No."
"Pasta!" Manal exclaimed.
"No."
"Noodles!" Amal said loudly.
"No and be soft please."
"I know. I know! She made Hindi!" Iiman said proudly as she thought she was right.
Kehara raised her eyebrows,"you are going to feed our children a language?"
"No no. She made Hindi!" Iiman exclaimed again.
Zyva looked at Iiman before saying," Your rotis are in shape of अ आ इ ई ?"
Noor smiled,"She means to say I made Indian food."
"You?" Kehara asked raising her eyebrows again.
"I will eat at home." Zyva said immediately.
Noor narrowed her eyes,"you two are mean."
"I agree. She makes amazing Indian food." Manal defended Noor.
"That's because you don't know how it tastes. We know." Kehara said.
"I'm not that bad."
"Poor Zeeshan bhai." Zyva said shaking her head.
"Hey! My husband never complained about my food. We have Indian food almost every day."
"He is so good!" Kehara said looking at Zyva.
"I know." Zyva said looking at Kehara.
Manal was smiling widely, enjoying noor's roast.
"You two are supposed to be my support."
"We are your best friends." Zyva said.
"We only insult. " Kehara completed the sentence.
"That's the rule." Yamina said nodding her head.
"Kids are hungry. I will leave you kids alone." Noor said before walking with the kids towards the kitchen.
"I will help her." Zyva said while standing up.
Yamina looked at Kehara after everyone else left. Kehara smiled at her to which she smiled back. Then she checked if everyone was actually in the kitchen and not near the living room before looking at Kehara again.
"Hey, I want to talk about something."
Kehara smiled,"Go ahead."
"I really think Zyva is going too far. She is literally doing anything and everything people suggest her. This will affect her health in more than one way!"
Kehara who was no more smiling looked down before nodding her head few times. "I know. I feel the same way like you."
"Then we should stop her."
"She was really upset when she came to know that she is the one who got the problem. I think if we tell her to stop she will be more hurt. I'm scared about that."
Yamina looked down as well. "I can understand. But we cannot let her do whatever she wants to just because she will be hurt."
"Yeah I know. That's why we, I mean Noor and I decided that we will not allow her to do anything else. This was the last one."
"That's a good decision. Let's not let her do something that she would regret later."
"That's the plan. InshaAllah this would work or if not then InshaAllah we won't allow her to do whatever she wants."
Yamina nodded her head before silence took over. They didn't talk for almost a minute before Yamina said,"This must be hard for her."
"It really is. That's why we are scared to talk to her."
Yamina nodded her head again before saying,"It's a complicated situation. No one is wrong but she is going too far and we are not stopping her. That's wrong."
"You are right."
"I think Sufyaan should tell her something."
"I don't think so. My brother is not the best person to talk about such stuff. He might end up having a fight with her. It's better if someone else talks to her "
"But even he might have noticed it,right?"
"He did. But I stopped him from talking. He will make things worse."
"Hmm. I just hope things go back to normal soon."
"I hope the same."
"Mumma!" Manal came running in the room.
"Why are you screaming Manal?"
"Noor aunty called you both to eat Hindi."
Kehara and Yamina started laughing. Manal didn't understand why they were laughing but she laughed with them.
"Come let's go and eat Hindi." Yamina said while standing up.
Kehara looked up at the ceiling before saying,"May Allah bless our taste buds!"

"Sufyaan!"
Sufyaan looked up and saw Zyva walking towards him.
"What?"
"Amal and Keyaan are fighting! They are out of control."
Sufyaan frowned,"what happened suddenly?"
"I don't know. Now come fast before they start hitting each other."
Sufyaan quickly stood up from the chair before they left their room. On their way to the living room they could hear Amal and Keyaan shouting at each other. They never behaved like that before which was the reason of frown on Sufyaan's forehead.
It took them less than a minute to reach the living room and what they saw was something they didn't expect.
"Keyaan!" Sufyaan exclaimed before running towards them. Keyaan was pulling Amal's ears and Amal was holdings keyaan's collar. "Leave her right now!" Sufyaan ordered. Keyaan had never seen his uncle that angry before so without thinking once he left his sister's ear. "Amal leave him." Amal quickly left his collar before looking at her uncle. "What is wrong with you two! Keyaan why were you pulling her ear!?"
"Because she hit me first!"
"He said me witch!"
"Keyaan!" Sufyaan exclaimed before looking at him. That was something he had never expected from his well mannered nephew.
"She started it all. She always does that." Keyaan said, who had tears in his eyes by now. His was voice was cracking and his nose was red. "Look what she did." He said pointing at his left hand which was bleeding a little.
"Amal! Why did you do that?" Sufyaan asked Amal. Amal didn't say anything and kept looking at the floor.
"You always take her side. No one scold her for what she does." Keyaan said while walking towards Zyva. He hugged her before he started crying hysterically.
Zyva looked at Sufyaan who was looking at Keyaan. She then looked at Amal who was still looking down. After few seconds she lifted Keyaan up in her arms before taking him out of the room. She thought it was better to take Keyaan away from Amal for a while.
Once they were out of the room, Sufyaan looked at Amal who was still staring the floor and had an angry expression on her face. Sufyaan lifted her up in his arms before walking towards the couch. He sat on the couch and made her sit on his lap before asking her,"Amal why did you do that?"
"He started it."
"Why did you hit him? Even if he started it. Why did you hurt him?"
"Because I was angry."
"So? Even I'm angry at present should I hit you?" Amal did not say anything and kept looking at her fingers. Sufyaan waited few seconds for her to answer but when she didn't say anything he asked again," what do you say? I should hit you?" This time she shook her head in no. "Then why did you do that? He got hurt."
"But he made me angry."
"You made him angry too."
"He pulled my hair."
"What he did was wrong but what you did was wrong too. You always treat him like a trashcan that's why he got so angry."
"He is a bad brother."
"He is a very good brother. Maybe you are wrong this time."
"I'm not!"
Sufyaan frowned trying to control his anger," how did we spoil you so much?"
"I want to go home! I will tell dad about this!"
"Amal. Darling. Keyaan is your brother. You should not put him in trouble."
"But he is bad."
"Darling so are you in this case."
"I want to go home."
"Ok. Eat your food then I will drop you and Keyaan."
"No. Keyaan will not come. You keep him. I want to go now."
"Amal."
"No, you keep him. I don't want him. I want to go home! Keyaan won't come!" Amal said before she started crying.
"Ok. Ok, calm down."
" Keyaan won't come."
"He won't. I will take you only."
"Then let's go. I don't want to stay in the house with Keyaan."
"Ok." Sufyaan said before he stood up to take his keys. He took the keys form the table before closing his eyes. He rubbed his eyes with his left hand before saying, "All my girls are giving me a headache these days."
