Chapter 2

Zoya smiled looking at Asad and clapped thrice, "Girls continue the practice I will be back", ordering them.

She tiptoed towards Asad and extended her hand with a smile, "I am Zoya", introducing herself but the same time got intervened.

Before Asad could extended his hand to shake with Zoya's Haider came in between to intervene, "Zoya! Ammi has just come from her khala's party, please attend them na"

Zoya snapped her head, "I am sorry Haider I have just forgotten about time", running fast towards the kitchen and announced a wrap up for her classes.

Zoya adjusted her duppatta and ran towards the kitchen fetching out the glasses, filled with water for Shireen and Rashid, who have just come back from Rashid's sister Raziya's elder daughter Nikhat's walima.

She greeted them, "Salam-Alequm", with a wide smile on her lips and offered the water.

"Walequm-Assalam beta", Rashid greeted back to her daughter-in-law, with equal love.

"Bacche aap ki results kaisi rahi", asked Shireen looking at her.

"Allamadulliah! I passed with 1st division", she became excited at which everyone laughed and Dadi blessed her.

She smiled but from her thoughts, Asad wasn't going out as no one has tried to introduce him with her at the time of marriage, when she came to home, as the bride.

She tried to ask Haider but he intervened, "Zoya bring some snacks and I am feeling hungry", she nodded her head in affirmation with confusion, of the invasion of sudden question mark.

Shireen ordered her daughter Nuzhat, "Go help bhabhi", who bubbly obeyed her mother.

"Okay", the bubbly girls replied and followed her back.

A middle-aged woman in simple and old clothes with roughly combed hair and dark circles under her eyes was already ready with snacks in the kitchen. She offered them to Zoya who was not introduced to her, as well, which confused her even more.

She firstly, frowned then asked, "Aap?", without being in hesitation.

"My name is Dilshad", she answered back while giving her the tray of snacks and shut her mouth.

Zoya was still oblivious about her identity when she turned back as she noticed that Nuzhat has come, "Nuzhat ye...?", Trying to ask her sister-in-law.

"Bhabhi why are you taking tension about her, she is nothing", she was sounding too rough which was disliked by Zoya.

"Nuzhat! In what tone you are talking?", she scolded her little being an elder to her, and thought she has a right over her.

When the same time she noticed Haider, "Nothing Zoya she is just a child. Where are my snacks?", Without bothering to introduce Dilshad with Zoya he took the tray and left with his sister.

"You too come", he said to Nuzhat and eyed something with which she followed them.

Zoya was in a riddle about Asad and Dilshad at which everyone was quiet or trying to not notice it.

----

In the night, Zoya was turning back but Haider was enjoying his deep slumber. She was in the riddle of Asad and Dilshad. So she decided to ask him about them.

"Haider!", She called him nervously but thought she has a right over her husband and he wills try to understand her.

"Hmmm", he mumbled out in his slumber.

"Who are they?", She questioned about Asad and Dilshad, who were unknown to her.

"Who?", He asked immediately.

"Asad and Dilshad ji", she stuttered being nervous, when Haider behaved rigidly with her.

He immediately opened his eyes and sat back. He held her tight from his arms, "It is 12 of midnight Zoya", screaming at her.

"I know. But I am not able to sleep since when I met them", she replied due to the curiousity.

He rolled his eyes, "Look never ask me or anyone about them okay", he cupped her face.

She frowned, "But why?", quizically.

He greeted his teeth, "Look! In this house, no means no", which stunned her because she has not seen this sight of her husband.

She mumbled nodding her head positively, "Okay", thinking he might be stressed today.

But, She was aghast with this behaviour of her husband when tears started rolling down from her eyes as she didn't know Haider could be this too.
