CHAPTER 13

The door of asad's room opened with a soft queak revealing the man in dark, whose back is now facing to the door where ayaan is standing , "bhaijaan?" he asked softly, he blinked his eyes for a few times trying to match with the contrast brightness of the room. He swayed his hand to the direction of switches before hitting up a singled button with L' written on it. In a flash of a second the room lighten up with colours of red orange hue; making his eyes go shut down again in order to adjust with new source. "bhaijaan" ayaan called again , eyes fixed on the image standing near the huge balcony with his back to him.

When not getting any reply from him, he shifted awkwardly on his feet, cautiuously taking steps towards him; "bhaijaan, ye sab-." Before he could complete asad turned to him meeting his eyes, he sighed ; " ayaan you are not so grown up to ask me any questions on my decision, I suggest you should leave!" asad said sternly looking at the door in the end. The sudden rude behaviour of asad did not go well with ayaan, his mind forced him to suspect on what his elder brother was not saying and not on what he is saying. He kept quite for a minute before he fidgetted with the wooden bar of the table besides him; "I can bhaijaan" he simply said not looking in to asad's eyes. He was rebelling on something with his bhaijaan for the first time, and he knew in the end of discussion he would feel much guiltier than before, but still he decided to talk at least for his good; "yes bhaijaan I can ask" he again repeated this time meeting his eyes with the amused and shock expression of asad. Asad was not in the mood of saying or discussing anything with anyone. Since he woke up, everyone in the family had walked on him asking for either reason or explaining and convincing him on his decision. He wonders was it the same scenario with zoya there? He had a firm reason for his deeds but that girl she is simply forced.

"apki khamoshi apki madad nai kar sakti bhaijaan, you have to speak out the things for help." Ayaan again tried to convince him for saying something. The time when they announced to dissolve the ceremony of nikah even before it could get started. No one in the family rested with peace. Dilshad had been desperately trying ever since to talk to zoya about the matter while she was multi-tasking to convince rashid and gaffur to not give in to their demands. She was sure that there is some minor problem arised in between them and since they are young they made the mountain of the mole. Here on the other hand, ayaan had a big fight this morning with humaira; she was so angry sfter she stepped down from zoya's room. She narrated the picture of zoya in her room, which now resembled with asad's condition a lot. Ayaan patiently waited till she could take out all anger gathered after seeing what she saw in zoya's room. She also updated him about gaffur's condition which one cannot just imagine. Gaffur loved his both daughters' more than his life, things between him and his wife's did not go well after humaira was born. He had asked for a loving family, while razia's demands from life were different. Its not that they did not love their children, of course they did, but than they loved their lives too. They never thought to divorce each other that were something not in the question. After fighting initially for few month, they chose their priority razia prioritize with social well being and he surrendered himself completely in his daughters upbringing. The situation of such a man could only be imagining whose only treasure in life is harmed by wrong decision. He wanted zoya's happiness and he very well knew it was with asad only.she had never hided anything from him. Maybe it's her first distinction in reports or a first puff on cigar on her friend altaf's encouragement obviously she got a good scolding and good long lectures on tehzeeb and morals for two days; but still she shared. Hiding things was simply not her things than why was she trying now? This question ated up gaffur's brain since the time of announcement. He was so troubled that he took a midnight off and walked called up rashid out in lawn to discuss about their children. He begged rashid to not make any judgement on behalf of zoya's childish demand. He convinced rashid to wait till morning and he would find out the exact reason behind the problem between two. Ayaan was there at the time when gaffur broke down during namaaz, praying Allah to save his daughter's happiness. How could he ignore all this things going around him? Everyone was trying something to do to seek the issue but none of it helped. It added to his frustration on seeing humaira blaming him and asad for zoya's suffering. She has plainly blamed asad as heart less, which got the center of argument later between both. Oh how he wished Haider was here! If he would be than things would be under control atleast from zoya's side. He was the strenght of gaffur family. But a night before he had took off to America to deal with something important in business. Although he had promised to come soon before their engagement announcement, this sudden revealation would definitely dumbstruck him. He thought to inform him but than he needed to talk to asad first and so he is here.

"main ab bhi intezaar kar raha hu, bhaijaan" he said looking at asad.

Asad looked at him with diluted eye lids as he walked to his almera throwing out few beautiful out fits on bed.

"ayaan, jake ready ho jao, media people will be here anytime." He said checking out his closet again.

"bhai-."

"jao ayaan, abhi" asad order him in a stiff tone which could not be refused by ayaan. He quietly left in defeat.

Onseeing him shutting the door behind, asad gave his signature smile, where his eyes flowed heavy rains. He opened a wooden carved drawer inside the closet and touched the small length of hand made cards which zoya had written him from New York. For him these were his only treasures forever now.

The twenty fifth hour of the day.

Rashid looked at asad in the crowd making a small gesture of time is here'. Defeated asad tried to stand as far as possible from the place which made him feel like left alone. Rashid got his cell out and tapped a few button in row before sliding it over his ear. "Haa, ap dono please yaha aa jaiye"

The media people took their position along with anwar and zeenat who probably stood there with heads down in the last row of the crowd. Besides them were gaffur, humaira, ayaan, dilshad nikhat and nuzhat standing with their heads touched their chin and face dipped in color of worries.

Nazma decided to be with zoya in the room as she thought zoya needed her more than anyone at this time. Humaira soflty enterwined her long cylindrical fingers with ayaan, while ayaan softly tapped it in assurance. They shared a look of understanding and apology in silence, where their eyes glittered with their sibblings pain and their surrender.

"ladies and gentleman" rashid started catching everyone's attention in the party. Asad looked up in horror as he felt the floor sinking beneathe his feet. Dilshad and rest were looking at rashid with curiousity as in now what he has to say. As far anwar and zeenat question was, they were under impression of him announcing asad and zoya nikah date, but than when they landed in the mansion. They were forced to swallow this harsh decision by the Youngers. No matter how hard zeenat and anwar tried talking to zoya, she just refused to answer anything, but on anwar's insist she burst out in tears, cursing her own life. rashid sahab kehna kya chahte hai, inke chehre se lag nai raha ke zoya or asad ke nikah tutne ka ofsos hai" anwar whispered softly to zeenat, while zeenat just hummed him in response.

"thanks for joining me and my family in this auspicious occasion, as you know my elder son has grown up and this grown up kids have an ideology of freedom and old like us are left with none option but to support in their every decision." He started beating around the bush but was rewarded with few giggle from crowd.

"so I would like you all to inform that my handsome son Asad Ahmed khan' have made an important decision for his life and here I am to mark the red with my permission to it. So ladies and gentleman I am very glad to make this announcement that with my elder daughter nikhat's nikah, asad is all too set for climbing the horse in my family."

Dilshad looked up at him in shock and surprise, her heart suddenly fluttered with negative wibes while gaffur thanked god as he felt that after their short talk in midnight rashid is not affected with zoya's stupidity and hence he is announcing zoya's nikah with his son. Everyone in the family eyes blinked in happiness while humaira tightened her grip on ayaan in excitement, a small flirty smile tugged on his lips. Every one was cusious to know what he was going to say further except the only man about whom the entire discussion was. Asad actually sank deeper and deeper on floor with every passing minute. To get control of his emotion he ran to the bar gulping few consecutive drinks.

"uh huh! Don't look here and there all your confussion will just get clear, asad beta please come on stage." He looked at asad on bar and signalled him to stand next to him; he noticed he had empty glass in hand , but he thought such things need courage and may be it will help him so he ignored the topic.

Asad stood up banging the glass on the aisle, he wavily walked to the stage, and people left him space as he stumbled upon his feet in an attempt to walk steady. No doubt his body had not accepted this new habbit yet. He was already dizzy but it was only good for him.rashid engulfed his hand on his shoulder to support his light body from moving while he now called his future in laws on stage.

Humaira looked at gaffur and ayaan while nodding a head in yes. Gaffur smiled in relief as he walked on stage with humaira behind him. The crowd again parted letting them walk on floor, but the moment they were about to reach abdul and tanveer broke their part suddenly from no where and walked ahead of him, with out knowing gaffur's presence behind them. They were now on stage and gaffur looked at every one up in confused and worry.

"so here are they." Rashid again started with his speech,

"ladies and gentlemen I am very glad to announce my elder son Asad's nikah with Abdul sahab's one and only daughter Tanveer baig along with my daughter Nikhat - Farhaan nikah this friday. Yes gentleman, finally the rivalry between the two of us is going to change in relation ship with this young hearts nikah." He finished with his speech and was attacked by various question and flashes by media.

No body in the family dared to talk. Dilshad ayaan nikhat and nuzhat stood there blankly with tears forming in their eyes, it looked like some glaciers have hit their soon. Nothing could be heard, absolutely nothing. They stood there dumbstruck, eyes beaming with tears in shock and fear.

Here, gaffur felt his ground slipping beneath his feet. The thought of his own best friend cheated him, was too hard to digest. And what added was asad's smile through out the announcement, as if he had already known and he was happy. So this khan's had cheated not only him but to his daughter. The mere thought of it loathed him with anger.

No body knew nikhat when slipped from the party and now she was in zoya's room delivering the already broken zoya a reason to break more. It was surprise to her when zoya started laughing hard as if nikhat had cracked somekind of amazing joke to her, then suddenly she started weeping hard and sat on floor face droped between her palms . she cried her heart out in them.
