Chapter 35.
Noor was watching TV when someone knocked the door. She switched off the TV and went out to open the door.
"Salam Bhabhijaan!" Noor exclaimed smiling.
"Walekum assalam." Kehara said.
"No smile? What's wrong?"
"Where is Ammi?"
"In her room."
"Ok." Kehara said before she started walking toward Mrs.Khan's room.
Noor closed the door and followed her.On her way Kehara removed her hijab. Soon they were standing outside Mrs. Khan's room. Kehara knocked the door and Mrs. Khan said,
"Come."
Kehara opened the door slowly and saw Mrs.Khan sitting on the bed reading a book.
"Noor since when did you start knocking the door?"Mrs.Khan asked turning the page of her book.
"Ammi." Kehara said.
Mrs.Khan looked up and frowned. "Kehara.What happened?"
Kehara walked towards the bed and sat next to her mother in law. Then she kept her head on her laps like a small baby. Noor sat on the bed and looked at her mother ,who was looking at kehara.
"Kehara what happened?" Mrs. Khan asked again.
"Can we please talk after some time."
"Ok."
For next ten minutes Kehara's eyes were closed and Mrs.Khan was massaging her head. Noor just sat there wondering why Kehara is sad. Kehara was still not sure if she wants to share her problem with her mother in law or not, but she needs her Ammi now. She knows even though she is now her mother in law but she loves her like her own daughter. After gathering enough courage Kehara Finally said.
"Ammi I had some hormonal problem when I was sixteen. That time doctor told me that I should conceive before I turn thirty or at least I should have one baby before that. Because after thirty I will have problem in conceiving."
"But you are just twenty three."Noor said.
"Yeah,We still have seven years."Mrs. Khan said
"I know. But it's more than a year now and I'm still not pregnant. I'm scared that maybe" Kehara did not complete her sentence and just closed her eyes.
"Kehara! You are over thinking." Noor said.
"Yes, she is right.It has only been one year love. InshaAlalh you will conceive soon." Mrs.Khan said.
"But I'm really scared now. Yesterday I was in the office when I realised this and since then I'm restless."
"Oh Kehara."Mrs.Khan said,"trust Allah love."
"I trust him. It's not like I'm dying to become a mother but yes I want my own baby."
"And InshaAllah soon you will have a baby in your hand." Noor said.
"But what if I'm unable to conceive?"
"Then we will go to the doctor. There are many new treatments which will help you." Mrs.khan said.
"Yes Kehara. Don't worry."Noor said.
Kehara looked up at her mother in law before asking,"If am never blessed with a child?"
"Then we will kidnap Noor's daughter." Mrs.Khan said smiling.
"Hey!" Noor said instantly making them laugh."Ok if you are going to keep smiling like this then I will give you my son as well." Noor said.
Kehara extended her hand and Noor took it.
"Kehara it's Allah's beautiful plan. So don't worry. Whatever will happen will be best for all of us."
Kehara sat bolt upright next to her before asking," You don't want grandchildren?"
"Of course I want. But I respect Allah's decision."
"And dad? He will not like it." Kehara said looking down.
"Kehara he loves you a lot.He will never do anything that will hurt you. We will always be with you no matter what."Mrs.Khan said.
"Promise?"
"Yes you idiot." Noor said before giving her a hug.
Kehara closed her eyes and tears started flowing. They pulled back and Noor frowned.
"Why are you crying now?"
"Nothing." Kehara said wiping her tears.
"Kehara." Mrs.Khan said before giving her a hug. "InshaAllah everything will be fine. Don't worry."
"InshaAllah."
"Now cheer up." Noor said.
"Yeah."Kehara said smiling.
"Come let's cook something. I'm very hungry."Noor said standing up from the bed.
"Ok." Kehara said before standing up.
Noor left the room and Kehara was about to leave the room when Mrs.Khan said, "We will still love you kehara, even if you don't give us grandchildren."
Kehara smiled turning around,"Thank you."

Zyva closed the door of her car and started walking towards her house. But before she could reach the door Zynah who was standing on the first floor terrace shouted,
"Baji stop!"
Keeping her hand on her heart Zyva closed her eyes. After few seconds she opened them and looked up, "Zynah! What happened?"
"Run!"
"What? What happened?"
"Phuphujaan and her amazing sons are here."
Zyva gasped,"Ya Allah.why?"
"I think they are going through some kind of crisis. That's why they are here for lunch or dinner. I'm scared she might come for breakfast tomorrow!"
"Zynah be serious."
"Sorry. I don't know. And that doesn't matter. Just run Baji. If she sees you she might talk to Abba. Just run."
"Ya Allah. I don't want to meet her so yeah I'm running. But where should I go?"
"Go anywhere Baji. just go."
Zyva nodded and turned around to leave but after taking few steps she turned again.
"What about you?"
"What about me Baji?" Zynah asked.
"Remember her other son is interested in you. What if she talks to Abba about you.?"
"Baji I'm helping you so don't scare me! Besides she will first think about her elder son so I'm safe for now. Don't worry I will handle things here. Just go.
"Ok." Zyva said before going towards her car.
For Some time Zyva was driving without any destination. But then her eyes fell on Qailah's house and she decided go there. Luckily her parents were not at home so Zyva didn't have to make an excuse. All her cousins are aware about how much she dislikes Sufyaan and how she is always running from him and his mom.
Now Qailah and Zyva are watching a movie. To avoid meeting her aunt Zyva is planning to stay at her cousin's house till dinner. Zyva have also turned her phone off.
"Assalamu Alayekum!" Hadee said coming in the room.
"Walekum assalam." Zyva and Qailah replied together.
"Zyva? When did you come?" Hadee asked.
"About an hour ago. How are you Bhai?"
"Alhumdulillah. How is my baby sister?" Hadee asked before sitting down on the couch.
"Alhumdulillah." Zyva said smiling.
"So Miss. Zyva Abbas what brings you here?" Hadee asked.
"She is hiding." Qailah said.
"Allah. They are again at your house?"
"Yes.". Zyva said nodding her head.
"It's farmhouse for them." Qailah said.
"But the time of my destruction is near." Zyva said.
"Zyva What's wrong with you?" Hadee asked frowning.
Zyva smiled shaking her head, "it's Noor effect bhai."
"Kehara's sister-in-law?" Qailah asked.
"Yes." Zyva said.
"Kehara always talks about her."
"She is a drama queen." Zyva said smiling.
"Only girls have this talent of changing the topic faster than the bolt runs." Hadee said shaking his head.
"Ok back to Mr. Cheap." Qailah said.
"Qailah." Hadee warned her.
"Sorry. Back to our cousin."
"I'm so scared and done!" Zyva exclaimed.
"Zyva nothing will happen. Don't worry." Qailah said.
"But what if things go wrong. I don't want to marry him. He is so irritating." Zyva said closing her eyes.
"Zyva you don't trust us?" Hadee asked.
Zyva slowly opened her eyes and frowned before saying,"What do you mean Bhai?"
"You think we will let this happen? When I say You and Zynah are sisters to me I really mean it. Why will I let my sister marry someone like him." Hadee said.
"Yes Zyva. We are so many! And if we tell my parents they will also support us. And most of all Allah is with you." Qailah said.
"Yes Zyva. Don't trust us, trust Allah."
Zyva slowly nodded looking down.
"Now cheer up. I will go and kick him out of your house."
"What are you planning to do?" Zyva asked instantly.
"Don't worry I'm not doing anything illegal." Hadee said making her smile.
Suddenly his phone started ringing. He took out his phone from his pocket and smiled.
"Who is it?" Qailah asked raising her eyebrow.
"Sufu." Hadee said before answering the call.
"Since when did you start calling him Sufu?" Zyva asked.
"He is not talking about our super sweet cousin. Sufu is Kehara's brother." Qailah said.
"Oh." Zyva said looking down again.
"What happened?" Qailah asked.
"What? Really?" Hadee asked. "Sufu wait a second."
Hadee stood up and left the room.
"Zyva what happened?" Qailah asked frowning.
"Nothing I'm just worried."
"Don't worry everything will be fine soon. Super soon." Qailah said giving her a hug.
Zyva smiled, "InshaAllah."

"What are you doing Kehara?" Sufyaan asked.
"Packing your stuff. I'm such a great sister."
Sufyaan rolled his eyes before saying,"I have already selected my clothes why are you not packing them?"
"Because I want you to look good there. You are the most stylish man I know. And I love all of them." Kehara said pointing towards his clothes, "But I want you to look your best there. So only your best clothes will get the opportunity to visit India."
"Why don't you say such things when your husband is with us?"
"You mean the most stylish man?"
"Yes."
"Just don't tell him I said that."
Sufyaan smiled shaking his head. For next few minutes Kehara was packing and Sufyaan was lost in his thoughts.
"Bhai what happened?" Kehara asked bringing him out of his thoughts.
"Nothing."
"InshaAllah everything will be fine. Allah is with us."
"InshaAllah." Sufyaan said smiling. "By the way I told Hadee everything."
"Oh wow. What was his reaction?"
"He was shocked of course but I think he is happy."
"Alhumdulillah! At least we have someone from her family with us."
"We also have Rahemat uncle."
"He is a true gem! Can we adopt him as our uncle?" Kehara asked.
"Thank God you don't work in the adoption department."
"Sufyaan now come down! If you don't want to be late then you have to leave now!" Khurshid shouted from downstairs.
"Time to go!" Kehara said smiling.
Soon Kehara was done and they brought his bag down. Afzal and Aman are going to drop him at the airport. Unexpectedly Rahemat came and not so unexpectedly even Noor was there.
"By the size of the bag it seems as if you are sure Zyva's dad will say yes and Then next week you will return with your wife." Afzal said.
Sufyaan ignored him and Went to his father.
Khurshid smiled and Sufyaan hugged him.
"Thank you." Sufyaan said.
"Don't you dare come back without my daughter-in-Law. And I'm sorry I cannot come with you. You know I cannot miss Qailah's wedding. She will be upset if I don't go. So I have to finish my work now." Khurshid said.
"I know. It's ok." Sufyaan said.
Then Sufyaan turned to Kehara and she smiled widely,"I want my Bhabhijaan here soon!"
"InshaAllah!" Noor exclaimed.
"Sufyaan please give this to Zyva." Rahemat said giving him an envelope.
"Yeah sure."
"JazakAllah." Rahemat said Smiling.
"Now Romeo let's leave." Afzal said.
Sufyaan turned to his father again, "Kehara take care of Daddy. I will be back soon."
"With your wife." Noor added.
Sufyaan looked at her before saying,"InshaAllah."
Soon Sufyaan left with Aman and Afzal. Rahemat and Khurshid decided to go on a walk together which left Noor and Kehara alone.
"I'm so happy!" Noor exclaimed.
"Everyone is happy. I just hope everything goes well there."
"InshaAllah everything will be fine Kehara. Don't worry."
"Noor I have so many plans for bhai's wedding!"
"I know what you are saying." Noor said smiling.
"I will rule! Everything will be according to my wish. Everything!"
"Ok captain!"
"I'm so excited for his wedding!" Kehara exclaimed.
"We all are. I can't wait to see Zyva as a bride." Noor said.
"And I can't wait for my Bhabhijaan to come home."
"Even if your Bhabhijaan is my best friend I will feel jealous and angry whenever I will have to share you with her."
"Aw Noor." Kehara said before sitting next to her.
"I'm not talking to you."
"It's Zyva. Your best friend!"
"No."
"But I love you the most!"
"Liar."
"You know what Noor I don't even pamper my husband as much as I pamper you."
Noor was quiet for some time before say,"Ok it's working."
"You are unbelievable." Kehara said narrowing her eyes.
"But you love me!" Noor exclaimed.
"Get lost."
