Chapter 34

 "Abbu!, Humeira with fake happiness knock the door which took his attention and she asked, "Hum andar aa jayein?. At which he took steps towards her "Come inside na, from when you started taking permission from me?

 

"Heheh, she laughed fake and continued, "Okay nahi lete permission par request to kar sakte hai na, she added the hesitant tone in her statement.

 

Gaffur creased his brows, "request? Kaise request?

 

She licked her lips to show fake nervousness, "Abbu wo, Ayaan chahte hain ki..., but she stopped in between.

 

"Kya chah kya rahe ho Ayaan, Rashid questioned on the other nook of Bhopal city.

 

He played with fingers to show his face nervousness and requested, "I wanted Asad Bhaijaan and Zoya Bhabhi to be a part of this wedding

 

"Gudiya ye kaise possible hai, Gaffur increased his tone.

 

"Humne bhi yahi kaha tha Ayaan se par wo bole ke..., she turned her back to face him at which Gaffur forced her to turn back.

 

Ayaan closed his eyes tightly, "Then would not marry

 

"Ayaan!!, Rashid screamed loudly.

 

Gaffur said, "Aisa Kaise kar sakta hai wo? Sari taiyaari ho chuki hain aur

 

Humeira acted to cry while saying, "Exactly abbu ye humari life ka sawaal hai aap please...please Rashid uncle ko manaiye na

 

"Kya bakwas kar rahe ho tum, Rashid clentched his jaw.

 

"Bakwas nahi request kar raha hoon, Ayaan continued while looking into his eyes, "Dekhiye abbu Asad Bhaijaan aapke lie bete nahi honge, but he is my brother and I want my brother in the wedding functions

 

"Please abbu!, Humeira cried fakely.

 

Gaffur and Rashids' clock needle was tuck to one point and they remained like a stone.

 

----

 

"Huh! Ayaan ne koi or option hi nahi choda mere liye, Rashid clentched his jaw when his cellphone buzzed which flashed "G, it was Gaffur. He picked it up quickly and tried to control his angst, "Dekho mere paas faltu time nahi hai tumse baat karne, waise bhi Ayaan already mera dimag kharab kar chuka hai, as he was in battle of his mind and so called heart to invite AsYa or not in the wedding functions.

 

He was about to cut the call when Gaffur screamed at him, "Ye sare baatein apne bete ko sunao, and continued while bawling his fist, "Kuch bhi karo magar ye shadi honi chahiye or jo date fixed hai usi par. Are you getting me?

 

"No. I am not. How can I? Poori zindgi tumhare kehne pe chala, nahi chala hota to na Shireen hoti or na main Dilshad ko chodta, he blurt it out in rage and continued, "Sarri gadbad tumhare kaaran ho rahi hai

 

"How come?, Gaffur questioned.

 

"You only advised me to marry Shirreen, Rashid blurt out again in angst.

 

"Oh Really? Shadi tumhe karni thi. Dilshad ko tumhe chodna tha, maine bas advise di...do you know what does advise mean, Gaffur clenched his jaw tightly.

 

"Argh! Tum...khair...gones are gones ... Mere kuch samajh nahi aa raha. Asad ko bulata hu to problem nahi bulata to problem, Rashid snapped his head.

 

Gaffur rolled his eyes, "Asad ko bulalo, it will be a better deal for you, otherwise forget the marriage and forget the...money, he almost warned him.

 

"What? Kitna tamasha hoga tumhe pata hai?, Rashid disappointingly said.

 

"Nahi bulaoge to bhi hoga, magar agar ye shadi tooti na to me tumhe chodunga nahi, Gaffur threated him.

 

Rashid asked for few hours to think and banged his phone on the wall, without realizing that a pair of eyes were witnessing him in tears, Shirreen, to whom he was answerless. She had understood that Rashid has married to for money, but now it was too late to complain.

 

She wiped her tears and announced, "Asad will come, that too with his whole family

 

Rashid was about to say something when she stopped him, "Na tamasha hoga or na ye decision badlega

 

"Par, he tried to console her but it was too late.

 

"That's final, she declared and left the spot wiping her tears and he remained again defeated, after all sins has no age.

The D day, the engagement of AyRa has came, Ayaan was looking handsome in white and black cheque box suit and Humeira was drapped in a light green lehenga with heavy jwellery. They were waiting for the time of engagement.

 

On the other corner of the Bhopal city, Zoya was getting ready in a light red saree with light pearl jwells and Asad was already ready, waiting for the ladies in a black suit with white shirt and a red tie to compliment his better half's saree.

 

All of them were ready now and now jumped in the car, when before started driving Asad asked Zoya, "Think once more, nothing has started yet

 

"I'm sure Asad. We will trap them today, she confidently replied.

 

"As you wish. Meri to kabhi sunni nahi hai, he complained at which Najma giggled.

 

He glared his sister, "Shut up! Tamatar, and drove off for the engagement venue.

 

They reached with gifts in hands which they offered to Humeira who accepted them with love and wide smile.

 

"Asad!, a voice came to his ears and Asad turned back, it was Gaffur.

 

"Thanks for the gifts, but I think they should be offered to the servants, he mummbled under his breath.

 

"Yahi zor se bolein zara, sunne dein apni beti damad ko bhi, Asad retorted back which faded all the colors from Gaffur's face.

 

"Wahi to gham hai, he thought in his mind and left while saying, "Enjoy the party, and looked at Zoya with his corner of eyes who was resemblance of her mother and equally beautiful as her sister was. She was looking as if he had seen any photograph of Aseemah.

 

He immediately left as he was witnessing someone else's photocopy, or for him, Aseemah has not even died.

 

He called waiter fetched a glass of water and gulped in a while, which did not emptied his thirst, so he fetched another one to quentch his thirst.

 

When someone said from his back, "See. That is why I left her in the hospital. Dar gaya tha main bhi, it was Rashid.

 

"Do you really think ye aisi batein karne ki jagah hai, Gaffur looked here and there and said.

 

At which his partner Rashid rolled his eyes.

"Oh Dilshad! Tum yahan kaise, ye to Rashid ke bete ki engagement hai, A cunning lady from the kitty party gang taunted her and before she could say anything.

 

Dilshad was aghast listening this, but those ladies kept continuing, "Nahi maine poocha kyuki dono families akhir ek dusre ke kisi function mein nahi jati na

 

Dilshad tried to explain her, "Wo Reshma..., but one of them intervene her, "Don't tell me ab jaana shuru kar diya hai

 

"Haan akhir rishta to hai hi dono families are same na, ek hi family se do family ban gayi thi jab Rashid ne tumhe chod diya..., she was throwing disgusting comments on Dilshad when voice came from her back, it was Shireen, "This is our family matter, you have no right to demean the lady

 

"Wow! Today I have seen new colors of yours, Sautan bani saheli types, she laughed with his gang when Shireen interrupted, "Shut up! Aap log yaha se ja sakte hain, humein ese guests ki koi jaroorat nahi

 

"Par Shirreen, Dilshad tried to stop her but she did not heard, and with their exit she hugged Dilshad tightly, "I'm sorry Dilshad, since years I was humiliating you

 

Dilshad has no words, only her eyes could say, "Please do not cry, he cheated both of us

-----

 

Rashid stopped Gaffur as he wanted to discuss something with him and took him to the part of the bungalow where no one could have witness them.

 

"Kya ghatiya baat kar rahe ho Rashid, Gaffur screamed on him.

 

"Ghatiya? Don't forget pichli baar ye tumhara idea tha, Rashid argued.

 

At which he rolled his eyes, clenched the jaw and turned his face back, "Last time ki baat aur thi, wo Asad Ahmed Khan ki party thi

 

"Yeah! Aur tab Zoya par attack karna easy tha?, Rashid continued his debate.

 

 

"I know it wasn't but..., Gaffur started putting his point but Rashid intervened, "Ya allah! Only I know how difficult it was

"To? Jo bhi ho hum is party mein Zoya per attack nahi karenge, Gaffur announced which Rashid took in a different way, "Accha! Beti par pyaar jag gaya ya apne andar ka criminal so gaya, at which Gaffur roared at him.

 

"Then what is the reason?, Rashid asked.

 

"Dimag kharab hai tumhara? Ye humari beti ki sagai hai tumhare bte ke sath for god's sake think a little before saying, he logically described his point at which Rashid did not said anything when Nikhat called them, "Abbu, aap dono ko ring ceremony ke liye bula rahe hain bahar

 

"Aap chaliye hum aate hain, Gaffur replied with a fake smile and she left when he ordered Rashid, "No means no
