Iqraam

My ammi had decided that Iqra and I need to meet father

So here we are today, standing in front of the luxurious hotel, V's, with paparazzi everywhere

"Shall we?" I asked Iqra and she gave me a worried look

"Calm down, we can do this!" I said and she nodded

We walked inside the hotels and my bodyguards held people back

Walking towards the elevators, I checked the messages

Many were from Ruqayyah as she was still my PA

She was reminding me to keep my calm and that my meetings for today was cancelled so no rush

"Bhai I think it's a bad idea" said Iqra and I shook my head

"Its now or never" I said and she sighed

Holding my arm tightly, she stood in the elevators

It took us to the VIP level and soon we were walking through halls towards the living room

"Thus way, sir!" Said the assistant and we followed her

My bodyguards were with us

"Please take a seat while you wait for the visitors, would you like something to eat it drink?" She asked us and we shook our head

"No thank you" I said and with that she walked out

Iqra played with her phone while I stared out of the balcony

this was the too floor, I realized

"As salamu alaikum" said a voice and we turned to see him

He has changed since what I could remember

"Was alaikum mus salaam" replied Iqra and I

He smiled causing wrinkles on his forehead

Walking towards us, I extended a hand for him to shake

I did not know what else to do, alright

We met like ages later!

Iqra can't even remember him, let alone know him

A tall guy and two girls followed him inside

They seemed Muslims

"Take a seat" he said and we resumed our previous positions

The girl with long hair in braid set beside him, followed by the other girl in ponytails and lastly the guy

"Iqraam... meet my kids.." he said and I looked at him

His kids?
He was married?

"My son, Namaan, my daughters, Nabaahat and Nafasat" he said gesturing to the girls in order

Nabaahat was the one with long hair in braid and Nafasat was the one with pony tails

They smiled at me and I smiled back

Not the best way to meet a father after so many years

"You must be wandering why I am here?" He asked us

From my peripheral vision I saw Iqra clenching her phone tight

Surprising I was calm

I nodded

"I Wanted to see you.... both, how you have been, I did not know about your address so I could not contact you..." he said and it was all lies

Can anyone remind him why internet was invented?

"Iqra, how are you?" He asked her

Iqra smiled weakly but did not speak

"Is something wrong?" He asked us

"I am sorry but we are happy... with ammi- i am sorry but it was her plan for us to meet you so in short... we really did not want to meet you" i said in a calm voice

His eyes were trained on me

"I see you still have that humor of your mother" he said and i raised an eyebrow

"She was feisty" he replied smiling

My phone rang cutting me from saying anything

"Excuse me" I said when I saw Ruqayyah calling

They nodded and I walked out to the balcony

"Salaam" I said rubbing my temple

"Was salaam, how's everything?" She asked me

I smiled

"Awkward..." i replied and she chuckled

"Calm down, think before saying, ammi deserves some happiness" she said and i nodded although she can't see me

"Yes..." I said

"Okay then Allah hafeez" she said and hung up

I put my phone back into my pocket and walked back inside

"I heard that you are a businessman- congrats son!" He said

Son

Oh yes, my business was successful because of you, you left us, I got motivated to slap your face and there was no better way! 

Instead I calmed myself

Think about ammi!

"Thank you" I replied

He set up straight

"There is something you need to know" he said and I nodded

Whatever it is please hurry up, I don't wanna stay so long here

"Your mother....." he said after inhaling a deep breath

This caught my attention

My ammi?

"Yes?" I said looked directly in his eyes
"She knows their mother" he said gesturing to the three youngsters

"And?" I asked

It should not be a problem am I right?

"Their mother is dead Iqraam" he said and I stared at the three people

Okay

"And Fatima knows them too, since the death of their mother when Nafasat was a year old" he replied

My mouth hung open

What. The. Hell?

"How- what- the-?" I stuttered since I had no idea what was going on

He smiled

"I know... she kept it a secret...." he said

I felt my anger rise slowly

70°

"She did not want you to know.." he said

80°

"She had reasons, Iqraam" he said

90°

"She did not mean to hurt you or Iqra.... " he said

95°

Stop talking

"She knew the things would go downhill if you knew about them!" He said

Okay he seriously needs to stop talking

97°

my phone vibrated and I  looked at it

Without realizing I had clenched my phone in my hands so hard that there was a slight crack on the screen

Oh great! There went my brand new iPhone 6 plus

There was a viber message

Opening it I saw it was from Ruqayyah

From: ✨Ruqayyah

Stay calm, think about ammi, you know she wants best for both of you!

xx

-Ruqayyah

I smiled

Okay so I need to calm down

Anger level: 30°

But it is still there

"Please consider this" said father and I snapped back to him

"Pardon me, but what?" I asked him

"She has asked me talk to you if you could allow them to have some sibling bonding?" He asked me

I think I have only one sister thats Iqra

Speaking if which, i turned to Iqra

"You alright?" I asked her and she nodded

"You sure?" I pressed

By the looks of her face, she was not sure

"Yes, bhai... please think about this issue throughout" she said and i nodded

Turning back to father, i smiled weakly

For ammi

"I need time... for 24 years i had no idea about this, we just cant make decisions now" i said and he nodded

"And may I speak to then please?' I asked him and he nodded

He turned to his children and the boy nodded

"I shall leave you all alone" with that he walked out

I turned to Iqra and she sighed

"Come on!" I said and stood up

The three stood up and smiled at me

"Iqraam, 24" I said extending my hand and the tall broad boy smiled

"Namaan, 22" he smiled shaking my hand

22?

My father left us when Iqra was a year old.... I was 5 that time...

How is he 22?

Oh hell father just did not do that!

"Nabaahat, i am... 20" said the girl in braid smiling at us

Iqra smiled at them

"Nafasat, and I am 18" said the girl in pony tail

I noticed she had the same eyes as Iqra and so did Namaan

"Iqra, I am.... 20" said Iqra and they grinned

"I always knew i had another brother!" Said Namaan and this made me chuckle

"Thank you" said Nabaahat and I glanced at her

"Why?" I asked her

She smiled sadly at me

"Not raging over badi ammi meeting us" she said

"Badi ammi?" Asked Iqra

"Your... mother" whispered Nabaahat

I smiled

How can I be angry if I can't put a finger on my emotions!

Ya Allah please help us through it!
