CHAPTER 59: BACK TO NEW YORK

Shehry's pov

"Heer!"

"Heeeeer!"

"God! This girl...she never listens at the right time"

"Behen kia mil gai hea miyan ko bhool he gai hea....."

"Shokhi ho gai hea meri sherni"

"Heer!" I called her once again, folding my cuffs up to my elbows, but there was simply no reply. Brushing my hair quickly, I walked out from the room and saw Mom coming out from the kitchen, holding a tray in her hand.

Jogging towards her I wrapped my arms around her and she gasped at once.

"Shehry???" she slapped my arm folded around her, disapprovingly.

"Caught you" picking a slice of mango from the tray she was holding, I gulped it up and she smiled shaking her head.

"Kabhi barey na hona tum" she complained and I kissed her cheek, still holding her from behind.

"Mom! ap hen to mujhey bara hone ki kia zaroorat?" I made a face and she patted my cheek softly.

"Per ub to ek beti k baap ho khud tum...18 sal k nai rahe ub putter ji!"

"So?" I frowned stepped back and she turned facing me with a smile.

"Mom! dil jawaan hona chaieeda.....umer vich ki rakhiya ae?" I flaunted carelessly and she smiled shaking her head.

"Acha ye batao k Heer ne aj doctor k pas jana tha na? gaye q nai tum dono abhi tak?" she asked and I looked down at my wrist watch.

"woi to, madam ko awazein laga laga...matlab gala tutt gaya mera, per madam ne sun'na nai....matlab...bus hadd he ho gai hea" I stated jerking my head disapprovingly and she laughed.

"jahan wo hea is waqt us ne kisi ki awaz nai sun'ni" Mom stated firmly and I smiled before walking towards the spare room.

"Hee...

"Abey chup!" I was about to call her when I reached the door frame but was cut through by Hussain at once, I frowned as I saw him standing there with the door, glaring at me with his index over his lips.

"Ki maut paii ae tenu, ki peri peri shaklen bana ra hea?" I frowned and he rolled his eyes, gesturing me to look inside and I turned my head, peeping in the room.

My gaze landed on the bed, where Mahrukh was sitting leaning with the back post and Heer was lying in the bed with her head resting in Mahrukh's lap, she was moving her fingers in her hair softly...and that smile on Heer's face was just heart melting, her eyes shut...I could see how calm she looked even from the distance.

"Heer! tumharey bal kia buhat gir rahe hen?" I heard Mahrukh asking.

"Q? nai to" Heer replied with her eyes still shut.

"Itney ghaney bal hotey thy tumharey...kia hasher ker diya hea balon ka" she shook her head disapprovingly and Heer smiled.

"aj kal ki lerkiyan na straight ker ker k balon ka satiyaa naas ker dalti hen...huhn!" Mahrukh added innocently and Heer chuckled, turning her head a little in her lap, facing her now.

"to tum konsa koi Aflatoon k sath peda hui theen? Hum se bus saal he bari ho, or batein suno zara madam ki, sukraat bukraat wali" Heer stated in her usual chirp rolling her eyes and Mahrukh laughed.

"hanso mat..theek keh rahe hen hum, hamari bchari bhanji...pedaishi samajhdar ho gi, sughar saleeqamand or shermeeli to aesi k na poocho" Heer added dramatically and Mahrukh laughed even harder.

"Or agar Waqas per chali gai to?" Mahrukh asked, popping her eyes out and Heer giggled, pulling up from her lap.

"Allah kare hum jaldi se khala ban jaen" Heer chirped excitedly and pulled Mahrukh into a teddy bear hug.

Smile spread across my face as I saw them.

"You were about to ruin their little moment Bhai!" I heard Hussain stated in a hushed disapproved tone and I chuckled quietly shaking my head.

"This little moment of theirs is not gonna end at all Hussain! its been weeks...or ye dono to jesey fevicole laga ker chipak gai hen" I stated, my gaze still fixed on her face.

"Arey Shehry? why are you standing there?ander aao" Suddenly Mahrukh stated and I stepped in.

"Aa ja bakri tu bhi, tera zananey mein perdah hea?" I turned and looked at and Hussain who chuckled and stepped inside.

"Mahrukh! and Heer bhabi! I swear upon the love of.....someone"he cheekily stated taking a pause and I rolled my eyes. 

"I didn't want to spoil your sisterly moment, All is Shehry's fault" he pointed at me and I smacked his head while they both giggled.

Heer was now sitting close to Mahrukh, with her knees bent in her tummy and her eyes fixed on me.

Hayee meri sherni!....aesey na dekh k piyar ho jaye

"wesey bhi Shehry! you two have spent a handsome time there alone, ub to bhabi ko hamarey pas chor do kuch der k liye..." Hussain stated dramatically and I shook my head smiling.

"Shokhi bakri!" I showed him a punch and he backed off at once.

"Shehry! merey bhai ko kuch mat kehna...ye meri dost ki amanat hea yahan" Mahrukh stated quiet seriously and I burst into a gwaf while Hussain made a face.

"Amaanat? Seriously? so Mr Amaanat!....' I rested my elbow on his shoulder and he crossed his arms at his front. "bataen phir, kab hum apko rukhsat ker rahe hen?" I asked and he raised his eyebrow before punching me in my abs and I groaned.

"Oye aram naal!" Heer at nonce got up over her knees in the bed, glaring mockingly at Hussain and he quickly touched his earlobes......

"Khota jiya na hoye te" she mouthed and I chuckled, while Hussain pouted, I jerked my collars up boasting and he stick his tongue out at me.

"Heer! bus? Ek mukkey per dar gai tum?" Mahrukh exclaimed looking at her sister and she frowned.

"I think you must see when they have their little bromance ....you would definitely enjoy that" Mahrukh added sarcastically and me and Hussain burst laughing exchanging a high five while Heer just pouted unable to get the picture.

"Hussain!....Hussain beta!" we were still laughing when Mom entered in the room.

"Ji Mom?" Hussain asked.

"beta! call hea Imran bhai ki tumharey dad ko...aao salam dua ker lo' Mom told him and Hussain nodded as he followed her. "ji Mom! Aaya"

"oye hoyeee suser ji ki call per kesey dora dora jar aha hea....kaheen Maheen ki call hoti to glucose cherhana perta bakri ko" I sarcastically remarked and he chuckled, turning his head.

"Saley aa ker dekhta hoon tujhey" he threatened me and stepped out from the room.

"dono becharey exams ki waja se theek se bat bhi nai ker patey hon ge" Mahrukh stated grimly and I rolled my eyes.

"Acha Heer! come on! get up, we are getting late for......"

".........For a date?" Heer cut me through excitedly and I rolled my eyes, Mahrukh smiled, who was now holding Heer's hand caressing it softly.

"yeah! why not she is hot after all, that would be a perfect date with Dr. Sinai" I mockingly stated faking a smile and she made a face looking away.

"so why don't you stay back ? mein akele he ho aata hoon" I added and she quickly shot me a look.

"Humein nai jana" she frowned announcing firmly.

"Heer! kun nai jana? Chalo jao shabash....foran utho" Mahrukh scolded her lightly before looking up at me.

"Shehry! le ker jao isey foran, mujhey to pata he nai tha tum ne aj jana hea doctor k pas....kab se gapen laga rai ho, chalo utho ub! Jao tayyar ho" she ordered and Heer made a puppy face.

"Mahrukh! I don't want to go" she wined and I just stood there holding my grin, looking at my sherni being scolded by someone.

Cool sight han!

"Heeeeer!" Mahrukh called her having a little warning.

"Acha jatey hen jatey hen.... Amaa na bano tum, samjheen! Khud to ja nai rai theen kal doctor k pas humein bhejo, huhn!" Heer complained as she got up from the bed like an upset kid, I looked at Mahrukh thankfully and she giggled lightly.

"Shehryar! Call Waqas bhai! and ask him to take her to that yoga class...." Heer stated like a little girl trying to take revenge and Mahrukh chuckled, getting up from the bed before twisting Heer's ear and she groaned a little giggling at the same time.

"Am your elder sister remember! Besides....I will never join that idiotic yoga class" Mahrukh stated firmly, letting go of her ear and she rubbed it pouting.

I wish I could kiss that pout away....

"Shehry! ye inkar karey na to batana mujhey" Mahrukh addressed me before walking out from the room and Heer stuck her tongue out at her back, I laughed at her cute expressions.

"Chalen madam?Date per late nai hona chaiye" I stated and she sighed in frustration.

We walked out and I headed towards dad's room while Heer went to inform Mom.

"Dad?" I found him reading a book in the study, his gaze was fixed on the page and he didn't even look up as if he didn't hear me.

But I knew he did....bus ignore ker rahe thy mujhey, jab se aya hoon yei to ker rae hen....janta hoon dil se maf nai kiya mujhey ap ne dad!.

"Um... Dad?" I stepped in.

"hm?" for a second he looked up before again looking down.

"Dad wo... um..I need your car" I stammered a little, he was still upset with me, he wasn't even properly talking to me.

It hurts Dad! please...talk to me, scold me, beat me but....at least look at me, don't ignore me.

"Wo I have to take Hee...

"Han le jao" he cut me through turning a page with his gaze still on the paper and I gulped down, unable to come up with anything any more.

I was about to say something when he got up, keeping the bookmark in, he placed the book on the table and marched out of the room, I shook my head helplessly when I felt his feet halted and I slowly turned around, finding Heer standing there in the door frame in front of Dad.

"Amaa bata rahi theen ap ne Ahmad uncle ki taraf jana hea.....ap hamarey sath he chaliye na Abba! Ap ko drop ker den ge" Heer offered softly.

"Nai hum chale jaen ge, route bilkul alag hea or tumhen der ho rahi ho gi...jao shabash!" I saw him patting her head a little and was about to walk pass her when Heer spoke up.

"Nai der nai ho rai Abba!" his feet halted, I knew what she was up to. "or...or route ka kia hea? Do alag jaghon k route to alag he hon ge na?" She added idioticaly and i shook my head smiling.

"Beta mein chala jaoon ga, itna door nai hea" Dad insisted as he tried to avoid my company.

"Per ap k paon mein bhi dard tha Abba! bus chaliye ap hamarey sath he...zid nai kertey" Heeer stated firmly as if she wasn't in the mood of any excuses and I felt dad sighed a little. 

"Acha theek hea" he reluctantly nodded his head and walked past Heer who beamed happily.

 she looked at me....I was staring her with a smile on my face, she walked closer and raised her eyebrows.

"Staringss stops ker den ap okay!"

"q? apni bivi ko stare nai ker sakta?" I asked frowning and her cheeks turned a little crimson as she smiled down at the carpet.

"thanks" I quietly said and she looked up at my face. "for trying Heer!" I added honestly, feeling a little low dunno why, dad's behaviour was hurting me deep down.

"Sab theek ho jae ga Shehryar! he loves you a lot bus thorey se naraz hen" she scrunched her nose as she stated and I smiled lowly nodding my head being uncertain.

"ch! now smile" she insisted and I pressed my lips in a thin line shaking my head. 

She pulled up a little and tilting her head, kissed my cheek softly, my heart fluttered. "This udaasi doesn't suit your boothi, okay" she stated and I smiled warmly despite feeling all hot in face. 

"Abba ki favourite ice cream konsi hea Shehryar?" she asked causally and I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Coconut and chocolate chip, q?"

"To chaliye! rastey mein hum Abba ki favourite ice cream khaen ge...theek?" she snaked her arm in my elbow asking and I smiled, nodding my head as we walked towards the door.

WAQAS'S POV

"Chalen?" I asked, looking down at Mahrukh's face and she pressed a smile.

"Apna buhat khayal rakhna or Heer ki bilkul fikr mat krna hum sab hen yahan us k pass" mami patted her cheek and Mahrukh looked down at their hands clasped with each other.

"I know aunty! Ap sab k hotey hue Heer will be fine for sure, or khas ker Shehry us k sath hea phir mujhey koi fikr nai' Mahrukh stated and Mami smiled.

"Bus dua hea us ooper waley se k wo jaldi se Heer ko theek ker de" Mami added with a sigh.

"Ameen!" Mahrukh stated under breath and I copied.

"Acha Waqas beta! Nosheen ko bolna k wo chaker laga le zara, Maheen k liye kuch dresses dekhney jana hea, wo sath hoti hea to sakoon rehta hea mujhey" Mami looked at me as they both got up from the couch and I nodded.

"Aunty! Ye Hussain or Maheen ne kia sadgi se shadi krne ki ratt lagai hui hea?" Mahrukh asked remembering and mami shook her head sighing.

"pata nai beta hum ne to buhat samjhaya hea in fact Shehry to buhat gussa hua mager Hussain or Maheen ki zid hea ub kia Karen" Mami told her and Mahrukh made a face.

"Oho! You innocent ladies...you people just don't get that right?" I stated making a face and both of them frowned. "arey yar bus jaldi shadi kerne k bahaney hen or kuch nai" I added and they chuckled.

"Abey teri tarah nai hoon Saley!" suddenly Hussain's voice heard and we turned finding him holding a book in his hand as he walked towards us.

"khud ko bari aag lagi hui thi na to janab sab ko apney jesa samajhtey hen" He stated sarcastically and I laughed.

"Hussaaaain!" mami eyed him, disapprovingly and he made a face.

"he started it first Mom!" Hussain complaint.

"bara hea tum se" Mami pressed firmly and he rolled his eyes while I boasted.

"Siraf umer mein" he retorted and Mahrukh giggled.

"Okay Mami! Chaltey hen ijazat dejiye" I looked at her and she nodded smiling.

"Ghar mein sab ko buhat poochna or Nosheen ko yad se bhej dena" Mami stated and I nodded.

"Your wish my command ma'am!" I gave her a salute jokingly and she chuckled.

"Mooooom!.....Mom! Rehmat....." Maha came running in the lounge with her hair wayward and face tensed as if God knows what has happened.

"Kia hua Rehmat ko?" Mahrukh asked panicked taking a step towards her and Maha pouted.

"She peed on me" Maha whined as if was about to cry and we all cracked up.

"Don't laugh! Eeeiwww this sucks...she peed on me" Maha keept on complaining with her expressions cute as she tugged on her shirt, trying to keep it away from her body.

"Its okay meri jan! go get a bath and change" Mami patted her cheek and she made a face.

"It's great! Now you will feel our pain sisi!" Hussain stated and Maha furrowed her brows. "It's pay back time" he added winking and Mami slapped on his arm holding her chuckle.

"I never peed on you two" Maha stick her tongue out at him and he copied her gesture mockingly.

"Apna time sab bhool jatey hen" Hussian made a face and I chuckled.

"Yeah like you once wet me Hussain!" I reminded him and he made a weird face, Maha giggled heartily.

"Seriously! am not lying you did Hussain! and trust me I hated you for that coz you ruined my favourite shirt" I added firmly, Mahrukh chuckled and Hussain's face turned red.

"Shut up!" Hussain mouthed showing me a punch and I laughed.

"Maha! Come on aa jao naha lo" Mami instructed, and she followed her inside still with a pout on her face.

"Chal yar! chalta hoon" I said to Hussain and we headed towards the door, he followed quietly.

"wesey sach mein yar! whats the reason? Ye sadgi wali shert ajeeb si kun rakh di tum dono ne?" I asked seriously as we stepped out from the door and Hussain shook his head.

"Aewaeen yar! bus I thought its already going too much around so....." he trailed off and I felt he didn't want to be pushed so I remained silent.

"I know you two are doing it for Heer!" Mahrukh stated and I looked at her with a frown. "Maheen se bat hui thi meri Hussain! don't deny" he shook head when Mahrukh added.

"But what for Heer?" I asked unable to understand.

"yar!' He moved a hand through his hair. "bhabi ki surgery hea Waqas! phir shadi mein itni bheer bhar mein itna pressurize hota hea banda.... I just don't want her to take any burden or extra responsibilities' Hussain lowly added and I remained quiet.

"Shadi jitni sadgi se hogi unta hea sakoon rahe ga" he stated and I smiled.

"Wesey bhi, it was Maheen's idea...so wo khush hea to mein khush hoon" Hussain smiled and I patted his shoulder.

"Am so proud of you boy! So much that I am even ready to forgive you for the peeing thing" I stated quiet seriously and he laughed.

"Saley! Dafa ho ja..... or bhej Nosh Api ko" Hussain literally pushed me out and I chuckled.

"Allah hafiz!" Mahrukh bid him in between her giggles and he replied, before shutting the door.

SHEHRY'S POV

"Hope is everything Shehryar! Just don't loose it" she pressed a small assuring smile, like doctors normally do and I gave my head a short uncertain nod.

"And Heer has improved a lot after coming here Shehryar! It's a really positive change, just compare the readings of her brain electrical activity and you will see tremendous improvement" she stated approvingly and I nodded, sighing in relief.

"What about surgery?" I asked.

"I want you to go for that as soon as possible, don't delay it" she replied, I took a deep breath and looked at my back, Heer was still in the scan room she might be getting changed or something.

Looking back at her face I cleared my throat. "um.. Doctor! Heer's eyesight, I think its getting weaker and weaker, in past few weeks I have notices she squint her eyes too much and I feel she focuses a lot while reading anything." I explained and she nodded knowingly, before exhaling deep as she rested her hands on the table in between us.

"Poor eyesight is one of the side effects of lesions Shehryar!" she stated and I blinked my eyes.

"One of....?" I furrowed my brows.

"Yeah, one of, others are extreme hair loss, clumsiness, lethargy and the most dangerous...." She took a pause. "Memory loss"

"Mem-memory loss?" I felt my mouth went dry all of a sudden, she nodded her head.

"not a sudden loss, but gradually brain patients start forgetting things, normal things day to day things...but till now we can't see this coming here in Heer's case, so....." she trailed off and smiled, I couldn't return her.

"And doctor Heer is....

I got cut in the middle as the door flung open and I turned, finding her smiling at me, I got up and walked towards her who was now shutting the door at her back. She turned and got startled at once finding me over her head.

"Itni der kun lagai?' I asked in a hushed tone, pretending to be angry and she rolled her eyes.

"Lab boy bara hot hea...flirt ker rae thy hum" she boasted in a naughty way, her eyes twinkling and I chuckled lightly.

"hamara choriye, ap yahan is Sheela k sath kaheen duet to nai ker rae thy?" she asked mimicking my tone and I quickly shook my head rapidly, touching my Adam's apple swearing, she smiled and walked past me towards the doctor.

I wish I could intact this smile on her face for ever.....I quietly followed her.

"So, Heer! How are you feeling?" she asked smiling once Heer took a seat and I sat next to her.

"Amazing!" Heer chirped brightly. "America is beautiful" She added and I chuckled.

"Hmm...it means Shehryar is giving you a good time?" Doctor Sinai asked raising her eyebrow playfully and Heer's smile broadened as she looked at me.

"A really good time" with a soft smile on her face she stated quietly and I smiled.

"Well then, I hope Heer and Shehryar you two discuss and decide about the surgery soon" She stated looking at both of us, I felt Heer's smile faded slowly, I reached for her hand and held it firmly...assuring her all was going to be fine.

"Heer! its going to be fine, you have a strong will power I know and secondly you have this amazing man at your side...kisi ki support hona buhat bari bat hoti hea Heer!." The doctor assured her, then smiled pointing at me and Heer smiled as she looked at my face.

I jerked my collar up boasting, she giggled so did the doctor.

"So......?" I looked at the doctor asking her if anything was there to be discussed and she shook her head, giving us permission to leave.

"Um...Doctor! I needed to ask something" Heer stated rather hesitantly and I looked at her.

"yeah, go ahead Heer! anything" she replied and Heer looked at me as if trying to imply something but I didn't get so I frowned.

"Shehryar! Why don't you go out and wait...I will just catch you up in a minute" Heer tried to press a fake smile and my frown went deeper.

"Wait outside?" I asked. "why? Am definitely not going anywhere, am here" I stated firmly and looked away from her face facing the doctor who was looking at both of us with an amused smile on her face.

"Shehryarrrr!" Heer pressed her hand over mine a little firm. "I-NEED-TO-TALK-TO-HER" she gritted her teeth and I rolled my eyes.

"to karo bat...mein ne konsi tape lagai hea tumhare moo per?" I retorted and she eyed me at once.

"I can't....not in front of you" she stated stubbornly, trying to keep her tone low and I raised my eyebrow.

"Its important Shehryar! Please. Go" she insisted.

"Am not going anywhere, jo bat kerni hea mery samney karo' I replied firmly.

"Ch! Shehryar! Please...jaen bahir, just give a minute with her, please?"

"But aesa bhi kia hea jo...

"Shehryar! Its okay..." doctor interrupted us and both of us looked at her. "its okay, you can wait outside" I gave her a reluctant look.

'Trust me, if it's something you need to know...I will definitely let you know" She pressed an assuring smile and I sighed helplessly getting up from the chair.

"Whatever it is...." I glared down at Heer who was fluttering her eyelashes at me innocently. "I shall know" I added sternly and she smiled sweetly making a kissing face and I rolled my eyes walking towards the door.

"You two are extremely cute" I heard the doctor remarked and a smile appeared on my lips as Heer giggled.

"So? What is it you want to ask?" the doctor asked, I waited near the door just took a little more time in opening and right when I turned my head towards them I found Heer staring at me angrily.

"Shehryaaaar???"

"okay okay! Am leaving...huhn!" I retorted and stepped out of the room shutting the door at my back reluctantly.

HEER'S POV

"But I recommend you to discuss everything with Shehryar first" She stated once again and I looked down, uncertain about this.

"I can't" I replied lowly, shaking my head. "I can't tell him this entire thing doctor! after knowing the truth, the details, he would never agree" I looked up at her face who was looking closely at mine.

"But knowing the truth is your husband's right Heer! tumhen bata dena chaiye usey" she advised, adding in her gora hindi accent and I shook my head.

"He has done a lot for me Doctor! Am just...." I took a pause, still trying to absorb what she told me. "I just want to return a little" I added and she smiled.

"Are you sure Heer! You will be able to carry this? I mean...am not a specialist but still I can tell, this will bring a huge risk along with it" she warned me and I gulped down.

"I think not taking any risk at all is the biggest risk in life doctor!" I stated shrugging my shoulders a little and she smiled.

It was strange how all the dark sides and the doctor's warnings were not affecting me at all...it was strange how my heart was at peace.

"You are a brave woman, I must say Heer! and I respect your feelings but....as a doctor, I still advise you to talk to him first" she stated and I nodded my head, right when the door flung open and I knew who it would be.

"Ladies! I can't take it any more okay!" he barged in, I chuckled at his irritated tone and he came standing right above my head, I slowly got up from my chair.

"what was it about?" he raised his eyebrow, looking at the doctor who smiled shaking her head.

"Kuch bhi nai, bus Biryani ki recipe pooch rahe thy hum" I stated seriously and he rolled his eyes.

"Ji bilkul, mujhey bhi kuch biryani pakti he nazer aa rahi hea" Shehryar replied suspiciously and she laughed.

"Despite all the love I have for this incredible dish...I fail to make it myself, such a shame for me being an Indian at heart I cant even make biryani" Doctor Sinai stated dejectedly and I giggled.

"Am serious Heer! tell me if there is anything I need to know" he looked at me asking quiet seriously and I shook my head casually.

"oho Shehryar! Don't start a CID here, and lets move, Rehmat must be messing up back at home" I quickly stated and he looked down at his wrist watch.

I just thought it was best to move from the place before the doctor herself vomits everything out, and I just DID NOT want that at the moment, so we walked out and headed towards the underground parking of the hospital.

"Shehryar! Lets take stairs...humein lift mein chaker aatey hen" I held his arm as he was about to press the call button.

"hey! You okay?" he turned and looked at my face with concern.

I pressed a smile. "am fine Shehryar! Just the normal strange weird feelings" I shook my head stating normally, but he kept on searching my face.

"Ch! Am fine" I assured him with a chuckle and he exhaled deep.

We quietly walked towards the stairs... I could sense his disapproval and dissatisfaction on his face, I knew what must be going on in his mind but only if I wasn't so bound, I would have told him everything;

All that going on in my mind since I opened my eyes on the hospital bed, back in Pakistan, everything I wanted to do for him...for the love of my life.

"Kahan kho gaye?" I nudged him playfully as we started stepping down the stairs, he was extra quiet.

"Ap khamosh hotey hen to humein acha nai lagta" I shook my head frowning and he chuckled a little.

I raised my hands and with my finger and thumb I touched the corners of his lips and stretched them into a broad smile.

"bus muskuratey raha kijiye, humein acha lagta hea jab ap muskuratey hen" I stated putting my hand down, but he instantly grabbed it back softly.

I looked down at our hands before looking up at his face and found a soft smile lingering there. "as far as you are here, holding my hand am smiling Heer!" he stated softly, melting my heart and I looked down in the space between us.

"So just stick to me" he added pulling me a little into himself and I giggled. 

"And stick Close" he whispered making my heart skip a beat instantly and my cheeks warm up.

~~~~~~~~

You should discuss this with him first Heer!

He is your husband and he has every right to know, besides this can be risky Heer! talk to him about this

I know you want to but still being your doctor, I advise you not to hide this

Hum nai bata saktey Shehryar ko, agar bata diya to wo kabhi nai manen ge.

Or risk kahan nai hota? gari chalaney se le ker road per pedal chalne tak...her bat mein kaheen na kaheen risk chupa hota hea, ye soch ker hum peechey to nai hatt saktey ne.

Or hum peechey nai hatein ge... I looked at his face, who was driving quietly; his face serious as if was deep in some thoughts.

Hum ap ki zindagi mein rahen ya na rahen Shehryar! Hum wada kertey hen ap ki zindagi ko khushiyon se bhar ker jaen ge.

Or hum jantey hen humein kia kerna hea....

"Heer?"

"O Heeriye!" he called my name, pulling me out from the pool of thoughts and I blinked as I saw him snapping his fingers in front of my face and I realised my gaze was fixed upon his face unknowingly.

"What happened?" he asked and I looked back on the road.

"Shehryar! I have thought a lot about my surgery" I started saying, he remained silent so I spoke ahead. "and I have decided I won't go for it, not now' I shook my head.

"And what made you decide that?" he asked.

"There is already so much stuff going on" I tried to explain.

"for example?" he asked.

"Hussain ki shadi hea next month Shehryar!" I kind of reminded him and he furrowed his eyebrows.

"So? Bakri ki shadi ka meri sherni ki surgery se kia taluq?" he asked shrugging his shoulders and I rolled mey eyes.

"Shehryar! Shadi mein itna kam hota hea, itni zimedariyan hoti hen or...

"Ohoooo! So you are already feeling like the jethaani han!" he cheesed and I laughed a little shaking my head, and his hand reached up and before I could stop him he pulled my cheek hard.

"ooww! Shehryar! na karen" I groaned slapping his hand off me and he chuckled.

"Am serious yar!" I tried to make him serious but he just couldn't get that right?

"Yaar? oye hoyeeee! Yar kab se ban gaya mein ap ka?" he asked smirking and I sighed, shaking my head despite the tingling feeling inside me. I crossed my arms at my front and started looking out from the window.

Sanjeeda to hona he nai kabhi, her waqt mazaak...

Bachey hen doodh peetey...huhn! I muttered and heard him burst into laughter.

After a couple of silent moments I felt a poke in my arm"oye Heeriye!" I decided to ignore him.

"Rehmat ki Amaa!"

"Oye sun vi le! dilrubaa" he cheesed loud and I bit my lip holding onto my grin.

I reached for his phone and swiped the screen, looking down ignoring him completely as he kept on poking his index in my arm while I kept on spurring my arm away.

"Arey meri naraz bulbul!!!!"

"Meriiii Sherni!" I aimlessly started playing a racing game, and I suck at that.

"Acha, merey honey wale buhat se bachon ki moti si Amaaaaa!"

His cell phone literally fell off my hands as my head spun in his direction with my eyes and mouth popped open, he looked at me innocently after taking a turn and blew a kiss, turning my already burning face into a tandoor.

I looked away from his face trying to cool down the heat.

"okay am serious! Tell me what you were saying"

"oho! Come on Heer! am serious...tumhari qasam, no more jokes" he insisted my heart skipped a beat at his words. I gulped down and looked at his face, turning a little towards him.

"Shehryar! Shadi mein buhat se kam hotey hen, responsibilities and then....shadi is a huge task, one has to spend a lot on a wedding" I took a pause as he glanced my way.

"and we know this surgery is going to coast a fortune" I added and he remained silent. "dono kam ek sath, aage peechey hona asaan nai ho ga"

"let the wedding pass by Inn shaa Allah! and then we will go for it" I tried to convince him.

"you shouldn't be worrying about this Heer! I promise I will manage and....

'Shehryar! Ap samajh q nai rahe?" I cut him through frustrated. 'humein abhi nai karani surgery" I stated firm, loud and clear. He exhaled deep shaking his head disapprovingly.

"Heer! bekaar ki zid ker rai ho tum" he stated irritated and I crossed my arms once again looking at the front, we were in front of the apartment.

"jab ap jantey hum ziddi hen to bus phir behes mat kijiye" I stated frowning as he parked the car.

"she is impossible" he stated disapprovingly, almost to himself as he stepped out from the car and I stepped out too, following him inside.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Asif! ub bus bhi kijiye! Ghar mein bahu hea, kia sochti hogi wo?" I heard Amma addressing him, I wanted to turn and leave, didn't want to stand there listening to there conversation especially when it was related to me...to Shehryar.

"kab tak ap naraz rahen ge Shehry se?" her voice had that visible grim any mother would have whose husband is upset with her son.

"Shaista merey sr mein dard hea, kia hum bad mein bat nai ker saktey is sab k barey merin?" Abba stated annoyance and reluctance there in his tone.

"Bahaney mat banaiye Asif!" Amaa replied disapprovingly.

Sr mein dard???? Suddenly Abba flashed across my mind, how I used to make him a ginger tea every time he had headache. I stepped back and walked towards the kitchen.

"Maha! For how many times do I have to tell you; STAY AWAY FROM MY STUFF" Hussain was standing there in the lounge, keeping his palms over his waist looking down at Maha grumpily.

It was strange and a beautiful fact at the same time how in no time I got frank and used to, with all of them, its been a few weeks and I already feel like an important part of them and their lives.

"It was just a pencil bhai!' Maha retorted rolling her eyes and Hussain's expressions went really offended.

"pencil? Just a pencil?' he frowned dramatically and I chuckled at his expressions as I shook my head and stepped into the kitchen. "It was my damn 20 dollars charcoal" he added firmly.

"Oho! Ki hoya ae? Ki rola paya ae?" I kept the kettle over the hot plate and heard Shehryar's voice from the lounge as he scowled.

"Shehry bhai! see! Sain is blaming me that I have lost his pencil" I peeped out from above the counter and saw Maha quickly ran towards him complaining with a pout on her lips.

"Shaaaabash!" Shehryar sarcastically smiled, clapping his hands at Hussain who rolled his eyes. "Aafreen hea teri kameengi per, ek pencil per dant ra hea tu usey?' he added scolding him.

"But I need to finish my project, and she always mess up my things" Hussain pointed at her who just stood by Shehryar still pouting.

"Oye khotey! Ja doosri le aa pencil na ho gai....voti ho gai teri, doosri le aa ja!" I chuckled as Shehryar stated casually and Hussain stab his foot hard on the floor.

I added a little cinnamon in the water along with a spoon full of honey and a small piece of ginger, making tea.

"Han aa gaya hea na tu, spoil her now...huhn!" Hussain stated angrily walking past them and Shehryar smiled shaking his head.

"And you" he looked down at Maha who cheekily smiled up at him. "stop messing up with him girl!" he ruffled her hair playfully and she giggled.

"I needed a sketch pencil I swear I didn't know it was a charcoal, I don't even know the difference bhai!" Maha explained in a cute innocent tone and Shehryar raised his eyebrow.

"So I used and when I sharpen it up the lead just kept on breaking down, and finally....." she trailed off, looking sad.

"Finally there was no pencil left at all? yeah?" he asked nodding his head so did Maha.

"You don't sharp a charcoal with that sharpener of yours Maha!" Shehryar stated disapprovingly and she pouted again.

"I didn't know that Bhai!"

"It's okay now...Go! and kiss him you are sorry" he smiled instructing her and a smile spread on her face as it brightens up and she ran towards Hussain's room.

I just love their love.... That bonding, that sharing everything was just so perfect between them three. MashaAllah!

"oye ki ker rai hea Heeriye! Apney Ranjhey wastey koi saag shaag ee bana le, naal makai di roti...aaayee hayeee maza he aa jae qasmey!" Shehryar marched into the kitchen flaunting dramatically and I rolled my eyes smiling.

I turned looking at him with a pout. "Saag shag te nai hea Ranjiya!tu daarcheeni di chaa nal ee km chala le" I faked a smile and he rolled his eyes making a face.

"mein pukka ee theek" he stated and I giggled.

"wesy we are still not done with that surgery thing okay' he pointed his index at me, as he took a glass and filled it with water.

"but I was done" I stated firmly. 'her bat ap he ki kun maney hum?" I asked frowning and he made a weird face.

"han abhi tak to jesey meri buhat chalti hea tumhare samney" He made a face after gulping the water down.

"Mashriki bivi k nam per dhabba! Wo bhi dheet wala....jo surf excel se be na hatey" he popped his eyes out as he blabbered and I cracked up chuckling at his expressions.

"ub apki qismat he phooti hui hea to hum kia karen" I flutter my eyelashes innocently and he jerked his head... 'huhn!'

The aroma of the cinnamon started oozing up so I looked back and found the tea ready, In straining it in a mug a little tea spill on the slab as my hand shivered.

"oh terii!' I winched a little as hot tea got poured on my thumb.

"Kia hua?" Shehryar quickly stepped towards me and held my hand in is, looking down at my fingers with a frown.

"yar koi kam dekh ker nai kerteen tum" he scolded me disapprovingly and shook my head making a face as I was perfectly fine.

"am fine Shehryar! It was nothing' I tried to stop him as he took out an ice cube from the refrigerator and came back to me.

"Hath do"

"Na den to?"

"Heer!"

"Shehryar!"

"Heer stop it!" he grabbed my hand and I giggled at his grumpy mood, he softly rubbed the ice over my slightly red thumb and I winced at the coldness.

His eyes were fixed on my hand and my gaze glued on his face, suddenly his hand halted and he looked up. "What you looking at?"

"You" I stated simply and he smirked, standing straight, grabbing my waist he pulled me into himself. The ice cube was still in his hand and the coldness burnt my skin, tickling me.

"q? itna pasand aa gaya hoon kia?" he asked lowly in a naughty way, his eyes searching my face and I bit my lower lip trying to cool down the heat emitting my face.

"hmm buhat ziada pasand aa gaye hen" I stated with a smile, he looked down at my lips and I felt a smug spreading across his face, I gulped down reading his expressions.

"Shehryar!" I tired to push him a little as he leaned in, my breaths went rough though he just didn't do anything yet.

"Shehryar! Hussain...." I pushed him back but he didn't even move.

"Yeah I know" he retorted carelessly, tilting his head.

"Shehryar! Hussain hea...get back!"

"Ahem..." Hussain's voice came as he cleared his throat and Shehryar's eyes popped out of their sockets as he looked up taking a step back and I gritted my teeth, feeling flushed and embarrassed.

Hussain stepped in the kitchen and I turned towards the slab at once, trying to stable my moves and not to spill the tea any more.

"Saley! Maut tujhey time per he perti hea" I heard Shehryar cursing him and Hussain chuckled.

"I wanted water man! come on...its my kitchen as well, remember!" Hussain retorted back.

"Wesy bhi you two are no more alone so why don't you keep your chumminess inside your room Bhai!" Hussain stated in low tone, earning a punch from Shehryar and he groaned, I felt my cheeks burnt.

I kept a few cookies in another plate and kept them in a tray as I turned and walked out of the kitchen.

In dono bhaiyon ka koi bharosa nai Heer! nikal lo foran yahan se...

"Haya ker thori Bakri!" I heard Shehryar scolding him at my back and I giggled.

"Wah Bhai! matlab tu jo dil chahe karey open air...or mein bus Haya karoon?" Hussain complaint loud.

"Harami insaan! Ek maheena saber ker le...phir jo dil aaye kareen" Shehryar fired back.

'Bhaabiiii! Shehry ne phir mujhey galiii......." I shook my head chuckling as Hussain's words got lost in the thin air, Shehryar must have covered that up.

Koi hal nai in dono bhabiyon ka...

I halted in front of Abba's room, the door was partly open and I saw Amaa folding clothes and placing them up in the cupboard, I took a step forward and found him half laying in the bed with his eyes fixed down on Rehmat who was sleeping near him and he was softly stroking her hair; the scene brought a smile on my lips and moisture to my eyes.

Gulping down a little I knocked on the door.

"Hum ander aa jaen?" I peeped my head a little in, Amaa looked up at my direction and smiled.

'arey aao beta! wahan q khari ho, aa jao shabash!" she offered and I smiled back as I walked in, Amaa frowned a little as she was the tray in my hands. I stepped towards the bed and placed it on the side table.

He looked deep in thoughts. "Abba!"

"hm?" he looked away from Rehmat's face and looked at me with a slight frown, I smiled and he sat straighter in the bed.

"Ap k sr mein dard hea na? ye adrak wali chae hea...sr ka dard aesey bhag jae ga jesey tha he nai kabhi" I snapped my fingers stating confidently and he smiled.

"Arey beta is ki kia zaroorat thi bhala?" he stated and I sat down on the brim of the bed, near his feet and my gaze landed on the ankle he was wearing.

"pedal aaye na ap ghar wapas?" I asked frowning and he nodded with a slight smile on his face.

"Ub dard to ho ga pao mein, bachon k jesey zid kertey hen ap...bat nai mantey" I shook my head disapprovingly. "laiye hum daba den" I tried to reach for his foot but he quickly pulled it back.

"Betiyan paon nai dabaya kerteen" he stated and I frowned.

"ji naheen! Kis ne kaha apko?" I asked firmly and heard Amaa chuckled a little.

"Laiye hum dabaen...betiyon se zid nai kertey" I told him seriously and he chuckled this time.

"acha ji? Or koi hukum?" he asked playfully and I bit my lips holding my grin, I was still looking down at his foot.

"Or..betiyon se naraz bhi nai hotey" I added. 'or un ki her bat mantey hen'

"Or ye kahan se seekha ap ne?" Abba asked playing along and I looked up at his face.

"Ap k betey se" I replied simply and felt his expressions changed.

"or unhon ne ye sab aap se he seekha ho ga na Abba?" I asked, he remained silent. "wo bilkul ap jesey hen" I added with a smile.

"I have learned a lot from him Abba! Itna kuch to sari zindagi mein nahee seekha hum ne, jitna Shehryar ne bus in kuch maheeno mein sikha diya" I told him honestly and he looked away from my gaze. For a few moments I remained silent.

"But am sorry Abaa!" I stated, my eyes pooling up and I felt Amaa walked towards us.

"Am sorry for everything, I never wanted this...." I shook my head as I looked up at his face. "hum nai jantey thy k Shehryar ne hum se shadi ap dono ki ijazat k bagher ki hea" I told him.

"hum kabhi nai chahen ge k hamari waja se Shehryar or ap dono k beech mein dewaar khari ho" I looked up at Amaa who placed her hand over my shoulder.

"Abba! Shehryar loves you both a lot...he only did this because of Rehmat, yaqeen janiye hum se shadi ki or koi waja nai thi, wo bus hamari bachi ko bap ka nam, bap ka piyar dena chahtey thy jo us ka khud ka saga bap nai de paya kabhi" I looked down at Rehmat as a tear rolled down my cheek.

"per ap yun un se naraz rahen ge to wo ander he ander ghut'tey rahen ge Abba! Or ye hum nai dekh saktey' I shook my head firmly.

"humein nai pata kuch bhi bus ap theek ho jaiye un k sath" I stated like a stubborn kid, just kept on blabbering whatever was there in my heart, didnt even wait for him to say anything.

I felt a smile crept on to his lips as he shook his head with a sigh.

"or agar mein na manoon to?" he asked and I got up from the bed.

"aesey kesey nai manen ge ap? Hum mana len ge ap ko" I replied firmly and Amaa smiled. "or wesey bhi betiyon se behes nai kertey" I added.

"Ub kijiye behes beti se.....is beti se nai jeet saktey ap Asif!" Amaa remarked as he got up from the bed.

"Abba! Agar ap naraz hen to ap ka haq hea, ap dant'ye, mariya, gussa huiye mager...mager un se naraz na rahiye aesey" I literally pleaded.

"or hum jantey hen ap dil se abhi bhi khafa hen" I said pouting. "ap bilkul Shehryar jesey hen, kuch bhi ker len chupa nai skatey, ap k chehry per likha hea ap ne maaf nai kiya unhen" I shook my head.

"jab tak ap poorey dil se usey maf nai Karen ge Asif! usey kabhi sakoon nai aaye ga, ap jantey hen Shehry ko" Amaa added.

"Gadha hea wo" Abba stated lowly disapproval evident in his tone.

"Ch! Aesey to mat kahiye" I complaint and he looked at my face with a frown. "shohar hen wo hamarey....ub uneh koi gadha kahe ga to humein acha thori na lage ga" I added explaining and he chuckled, shaking his head.

"chalo acha maf kia tumhary gadh.....mera matlab Shehry ko" he quickly changed his words as my eyes popped out and I giggled at the end.

I literally felt like a ton of weight has just lifted off my shoulders and I can breathe now.

Bus itna sa kam tha or Shehryar nai ker pa rahe thy....bhala Maa Baap bhi kabhi hum se naraz reh sakty hen?
