Enjoy:)
Aman opened the door and saw Kehara sitting next to the couch, on the floor, writing something. He closed the door and went inside. He sat on the couch next to her.
"Assalamu Alayekum." Kehara said smiling.
"Walekum assalam. What are you doing?"
"I'm writing all the things I want to do in Bhai's wedding."
Aman smiled,"what do you want to do?"
"Many things!" Kehara exclaimed,"I'm planning his wedding since I was fifteen. I want to fulfill all my wishes! Everything will be according to my wish. I'm so excited."
Aman smiled wider,"I can see that."
Kehara smiled at him before turning back to her book. Aman was quiet for some time and Kehara was busy writing. After some time Aman looked at her and said,
"I met mom today."
"Where?" Kehara asked, still writing.
"At home. I went home to meet them."
"Alone?" Kehara asked looking at him.
"Dadajaaan asked me to get his medicines. That's why I went there. InshaAllah tomorrow we will go together."
"Ok." Kehara said before turning back to her book.
Aman was quiet for some time, thinking about something. After five minutes he said,"Kehara,mom told me everything."
Kehara looked up instantly but did not turn to face him. She was trying to control her tears but just when they were about to start flowing she looked down. She was trying to avoid this topic as much as possible but unfortunately Aman now knows everything. Aman sat down next to her and took her hand.
"Kehara why didn't you tell me?"
"I was scared."
Aman Frowned and was quiet for some time. The he went closer to her and Kehara rested her head on his shoulder.
"Kehara I really don't know what to say now. You are scared of me? I never expected this "
"No! I was scared of your reaction. I know you will not blame me or say anything to me. But I also know how much you love kids. What if we are never blessed with a baby?"
"Kehara darling you are thinking too much."
"I know."
"Don't worry. Allah is our writer. Whatever is written is best for us."
"I know. But still Aman. You want children! And even I want at least two babies."
"InshaAllah we will soon have babies. Trust Allah."
"I trust him Aman. And to be honest I don't think it will affect me much. I'm scared of others reaction."
"People who blame you are not that important. And if they are not important then why to worry about them."
"Aman it's not easy."
"I know." Aman said before pulling her closer.
There were quiet for some time. Aman was trying to think of a way to make Kehara feel better. He wants children and there is no doubt there. But that does not means he will trouble Kehara for that. He loves Kehara more than anything. If living with her means no children then he has no problem with that.
"Aman what if we are never blessed with children. Then?"
"Then we will kidnap Noor's daughter."
Kehara finally smiled,"You are just like your mom."
"Why?"
"She said the exact same thing."
Aman laughed before asking,"Really?"
"Yes." Kehara said nodding her head.
"Ok."
"Aman now tell me seriously."
"Why do you want to know?"
"Just tell me the truth."
"I will accept it. Kehara it's Allah's decision who are we to doubt it? And don't be negative please. InshaAllah nothing like that will happen."
"InshaAllah." Kehara said wiping her tear.
"And we will have Sufyaan's,Afzal's and Noor's children to spoil. We will still have them. They will be like our own children."
"You are right." Kehara said looking up and smiling.
"Now that's like my good girl." Aman said cupping her face with his hands.
"You won't leave me, right?" Kehara asked.
"For what?" Aman asked frowning. But then he realised what she meant and his eyes became wide. "Ya Allah Kehara! You think I will leave you just because. Kehara! How can you even think that?"
"I'm just asking. I know you won't do that. And even if you try, I will kill you."
"Why are you asking me then? You don't trust me?"
"Of course I trust you. But I know way too many cases where husband left his wife because of this reason."
"You think I'm one of them?" Aman asked.
It was evident in his voice that he was angry and upset which scared Kehara.She started panicking, thinking about Aman getting mad at her
"No! Aman I'm sorry. That's not what I meant. I'm extremely sorry. I was just worried. I should have not said that. Please don't be angry. I'm sorry."
"Kehara calm down." Aman said holding her shoulders.
"Aman I'm sorry. I trust you. Trust me when I say that. I don't trust anyone more than you. Please don't think that way. Aman please."
"Shhh." Aman said before hugging her."calm down. It's ok. I'm not angry."
"Promise?"
"Yes."
"Thank you."
Kehara tried her best that night to convince Aman that she trusts him and Aman tried his best to make her feel better. That night they could sleep. Some times problems are created by us which takes our peace away.

"Sufyaan Bhai!" Qailah exclaimed as soon as Sufyaan entered the living room.
"What?" Sufyaan asked.
Then Sufyaan sat next to Hadee who rolled his eyes at his sister.
"How can you hide this from me!?" Qailah asked.
"I'm sorry."
"I'm so upset. I will fight with Kehara as well!"
"Qailah don't do that. Kehara is already upset." Sufyaan said.
"Why?" Hadee and Qailah asked together.
"I don't know. But from past few days she is sounding sad."
"I hope she is fine." Hadee said.
"Yeah. I will talk to her today." Qailah said.
"Ok. But don't say anything that will upset her." Sufyaan said.
"Sufyaan Bhai, of course I know that."
Before anyone could say anything the door bell rang. Qailah got up and went to open the door. Sufyaan looked at Hadee and smiled. Hadee smiled slightly before asking,
"What happened to your I will never get married policy?" Hadee asked.
"I think that was stupid. Everyone needs someone."
Hadee raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Oh really?"
"Yeah."
Hadee narrowed his eyes before shaking his head,"Idiot."
"Look who is here." Qailah said coming in the room.
Soon Valiqa entered the room and smiled
"Salam boys."
"Khalajaan!" Sufyaan exclaimed before standing up.
"Sufyaan back off. She is my girl." Hadee said standing up.
Sufyaan narrowed his eyes at him before walking towards his aunt.
"How are you?" Valiqa asked after hugging him
"Alhumdulillah."
"Yeah now you will be Alhumdulillah." Valiqa teased
"What do you mean?" Sufyaan asked.
"Stop acting. I know everything." Valiqa said before sitting down on the couch.
"Who told you? Qailah?" Sufyaan asked looking at Qailah.
"No!" Qailah exclaimed.
"Then Kehara?" Hadee asked.
"No." Valiqa said shaking her head.
"Then who?" Sufyaan asked frowning.
"Zynah."
"What? Where did you meet her?" Qailah asked.
"In the market this morning. She actually thought I know about Sufyaan and Zyva. So she said that she is very excited for Qailah's wedding. And that she was sure Sufyaan will win. When I asked her what she was talking about. Then she thought I don't know anything about her father's condition so she told me everything about it."
"Zynah and her assuming power." Hadee said shaking his head.
"She is great." Qailah said rolling her eyes.
"My boy is all grown up." Valiqa said looking at Sufyaan.
"I think he grew up years ago." Sufyaan said sitting next to her.
"No, he is still my baby boy." Valiqa said before messing his hair.
"And I think I'm still here." Hadee said.
"You are my favourite!" Valiqa exclaimed.
"She is just being nice to you." Sufyaan said to Hadee.
"Shut up."
"Stop boys. Qailah when are your parents coming back?" Valiqa asked.
"I don't know. It might take them a week or more."
"You can stay with us till then." Hadee said.
"Yeah. Anyways you are alone. Nani is in Mumbai." Sufyaan said.
"When is she coming back?" Qailah asked.
"I don't know. She will come back with your parents I think."
"Then it is fixed you are staying here." Sufyaan said.
"Yeah, you three are small kids who need adult supervision." Valiqa said.
"Adult? You are just ten to fifteen years older than us." Hadee said.
"No." Valiqa said laughing. "Almost twenty years. I was eighteen when Sufyaan was born and nineteen when you came."
"Wow. You look like thirty five. When in reality you are forty five." Qailah said.
"What's the secret young lady?" Hadee asked.
"I have amazing nieces and nephews who are excellent liars."
Sufyaan smiled before shaking his head,"No khala. Trust me you look like thirty five."
"Ok." Valiqa said smiling.
"So you are staying here, right?" Hadee asked.
"You all really want me to stay?"
"Yes." All three of them said together.
"Ok. Then I will go and get my things." Valiqa said standing up.
"You want someone to come?" Sufyaan asked.
"No. I will go alone."
"Sure?" Hadee asked.
"Yes." Valiqa said.
Soon Valiqa left and Qailah went to her room. Hadee and Sufyaan were discussing working when again they heard the door bell ring.
"Qailah!" Hadee shouted
After few seconds Qailah came in the room and shouted,"Lazy humans!" Before going towards the door.
Sufyaan and Hadee looked at each other and started laughing. After some time Qailah returned with Zynah.
"Really? I thought he will shout at Zyva." Qailah said.
"Surprisingly he is acting normal." Zynah said.
Zynah then turned her face and her eyes became wide. She looked at Qailah, who frowned after looking at her expression.
"Qailah you have guests at home?" Zyva asked coming in the room.
She looked up and frowned at Zynah before turning her face to her right ,where Zynah was looking. She gasped as soon as she saw Sufyaan.
"What is he doing here?" Zyva whispered to Qailah.
Sufyaan frowned and looked at Hadee who was looking at them,confused written on his face.
Qailah frowned ,"He is staying here.Where else will he go?"
"To his Nani's house."
"She is not here." Qailah said.
"We should go. Zynah come." Zyva said and turned around to leave.
"Zyva wait." Hadee said. Zyva stopped and turned around to face him. "What happened? Where are you going?"
"Home."
"Why?"
"Because he is here."
"So? He is going to stay here for a long time. Are you planning to not attend Qailah's wedding?"
Zyva thought for some time and then looked at Hadee again.
"But Abba will be very upset."
"You are not alone Zyva. We all are here." Qailah said.
"Yeah Baji. Sit down." Zynah said before sitting on a chair.
"Sit Zyva." Hadee said.
Zyva thought for some more time then looked at Qailah who nodded her head.
"Ok." Zyva said.
"Abba was just an excuse. She is a very shy person." Zynah whispered to Sufyaan who smiled.
Soon they all sat down. Zyva was very uncomfortable but Zynah didn't allow her to leave. Sufyaan was trying his best to not look at Zyva. Zynah made it easy for him with her continuous talking.
"By the way Zynah, Valiqa phuphu had no idea about them but now ,thanks to you she knows everything." Qailah said.
"I thought she knows everything. She is more like a friend to you all than your aunt."
"I have to lock Zynah. She also told everything to rahemat chachu." Zyva said looking at Zynah.
"Zynu, now please don't tell anyone else. Please." Hadee said.
"Yeah please." Sufyaan said.
"You are here today because I told everything to Rahemat chachu."Zynah said looking at Sufyaan.
"What do you mean?" Qailah asked.
"I told everything to chachu and then he talked to him. And see he is here today." Zynah explained.
"Actually Noor convinced me. But Rahemat uncle also helped so yeah you helped."Sufyaan said.
"I know." Zynah said smiling.
"What did Noor do?"Zyva asked.
"You remember Noor gave you a piece of paper and told you to write all the things you love."
"Yeah."Zyva said frowning.
"What did you write in it?" Sufyaan asked.
"I don't remember."
"Please don't tell me she wrote Sufyaan." Zynah said.
"Zynah let him speak."Hadee said.
"No. Although I wish that was true." Sufyaan whispered."So you wrote few things and when we take the initial alphabet of all those words we get Sufyaan."
"What?" Qailah asked frowning.
"But that can be a coincidence."Hadee said.
"We all said that but she said that Sufyaan has many spellings but she wrote my spelling."
"Noor is smarter than my imagination." Zyva whispered to herself.
"She is right." Zynah said.
"Zyva what were you thinking at that time?" Hadee asked Zyva who panicked for few seconds.
"Its ok." Sufyaan said trying to control his smile.
"Continue." Zynah said.
Zyva started rubbing her thumbs together. She was not sure what will come next. She was already feeling embarrassed and uncomfortable. She wants to run from there but her curiosity about what Noor said is stopping her. Sufyaan saw her hands and smiled.
"Let's just say that Noor observes everything and her convincing power is really high."
"She screamed at your face that she hates you and you were still sure that she loves you?" Zynah asked.
"Zynah!" Zyva exclaimed.
"She did what? Someone needs to tell me the whole story." Qailah said.
"No. I had a big doubt but everyone told me to at least try. So I came here."
"You had doubt?" Zynah asked.
"Yeah, but that is cleared now."
"How?" Qailah asked.
"By someone's smile."
Zyva instantly stood up shocking everyone."Zynah we should leave. Come fast." Zyva said before leaving the room.
Zynah turned to Sufyaan who was looking a bit shocked.
"Don't worry. As I said She is just shy."
"Ok."Sufyaan said.
"I will leave now."Zynah said before standing up.
She was walking towards the Door when Sufyaan stopped her by asking,"Zynah did that cousin of yours sent his proposal before me?"
Zynah turned around slowly and shook her head,"Alhumdulillah no. But my Phupujaan is going to talk to our father soon."
"He will accept his proposal?"
"I don't know to be honest. But I know you will not let him win."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Because I know Allah is with us."
