Chapter 6
Forbidden Words ...
You want to do what ...screamed
Suraiya...the whole Barkat Villa was filled with silence, an engulfing one...
Mom mai Aaliya koh is ghar par
wapas le aana chahta hu...usse humari zaroorat hai ...
Aur mujhe ...Zain... Suraiyas eyes
pierced his heart.
Here stood a women whom he loved
immensely. After Osmans death she was the pillar of Barkat villa, she was his
smile... one of the reason of his existence, but Aaliya was his heartbeat and
he was suffocating every day without her ...
Mom mai jaanta hu aap us police
station ki khaufnaak raat koh kabhi bhi apne zahem se nahi nikal payegi , aur
na hi mai aapko sab kuch bhoolne koh keh raha hu...Par aap mere yakeen par toh
yakeen rakh sakti hai na ...his voice was mixed with hope ... a hope that she might listen to his heart ...atleast once
...
He went close to her and held her
hand, those gentle hands that had nursed him, caressed him with all the love.
He gently kissed her hand ...
Mom maine shayad bahut galat kiya
hai uske saath ...peechle ek saal se pagalon ki tarah dhoondh raha tha ...aur aaj
who mujhe aise mili hai ...jaise koi anjaani si tasveer...
Usse kuch bhi yaad nahi hai ...na
koi baat no koi shaqal...toh phir kaise nafrat ....his tears fell on Suraiyas
hands ...Usse aise halat mai lekar aanewala sirf mai hu ...who meri zimaadri hai ...
aur mai itna khudgarz nahi ban sakta hu...please Mom
Tumhare koi rishta nahi hai uske
saath ...bhool na mat Zain ...Fahad interrupted ...
Par Dad ka toh hai ...unki sabse
ajeez rishton mei se hai ...kya hum dad ke khatir itnasa nahi kar sakte...bhai ...Zains
talk was breaking Fahads compulsions... he too loved Aaliya but the past was too
painful and his moms hatred too strong ...
Apart from Zain the only person in
the room who wanted Aaliya back was Nafisa ...Her regret was beyond words, being
snubbed by Zain and living in her own repenting world , she was initially
devastated to know all the things Aaliya had to face ...but she was still
quiet...she had to be here to support Aaliya, get her memory back...and the day it
happens she had decided to own up and walk out of this house...but right now Zain
and Aaliya both needed her ...
Zain mai tumhara dard samjhta
hu...par Mom ...she will never be able to move on and you know that ...Bhai please
ek baar mere liye ...Fahad looked down unable to meet his younger brothers
blazing eyes...
Agar use theek karne ke itna hi
shaukh hai toh use Shabana aur Ghulam ke ghar rehne do ...mere ghar par nahi
...she spat the words ... aur kya pata shayad who khabhi thhek na ho...a wish
Suraiya secretly wished in her heart now ...
Mai phoops aur phupha koh abhi
kuch nahi batana chahta hu, Aaliya ne jab mujhe choda toh unhe bhi choda tha...
Aaliya ke saath joh bhi hua isme hum dono ki galati hai ... aur ek baar uski yaad
dash wapis aayegi toh mai use unke paas wapis bhej doonga...Aage joh bhi hoga who
Aaliya ka faisla hoga ...the restlessness and fear of his actions were evident on
Suraiyas face ...
Theek hai Zain ...Fahad said ...sirf
tumhare khatir mai tayaar hu....Zain smiled for the first time in two days ...he
held Fahads hand and hugged him tightly. It was a mini battle won ...a small
small victory in his difficult world...
He looked with eyes that had
hopes and love filled to the brim...towards Suraiya ...and kneeled next to her ,
she was sitting in Osmans black chair ...Theek hai Zain she said ..
Zains happiness had no bounds,
his heart crazily leapt and his mind was going insane...was this all true...did his
mom actually say a yes ...he wanted to hold on to this moment ...like a small child
holding a valuable candy ...his thoughts of excitement were running wild and
scattered all across ...when he heard her talk again ...
Theek hai ...tum use la sakte ho
...par tumhe hum dono se sirf ek ke saath rishta nhibhana padega ...ya toh tum mere
bete banker raho ya uske ......her words broke off...and so did Zains hope...
He knew this was inevitable ...one
day he would have to face this...he just closed his eyes ...and spoke ...right from
his heart... a decision he had made at the expense of his own happiness ...he decided to speak it out ...
Mom mai aaj aapse sirf apni
khushi maangne aaya tha, koi sharth koh poora karne nahi ...
phir bhi aap yehi chahti hai ...toh
yehi sahi ...he inhaled deeply ...his heart was twitching within ...but the words
just got blurted out ...
Mai Aaliya koh chunta hu...isliye
nahi ki mai use zyada chahta hoon par sirf isliye ki use is waqt meri zyada
zaroorat hai ....his pained eyes looked at Suraiyas face ...which had already
turned away ...She knew he was strong with his promises ...
Suraiya slowly took her hand away
from Zains ...and stood up...it was breaking her heart to do this ...to speak to
her most loved son ...so harshly ...an emptiness that Osman had left was only
filled with Zains love and care and his existence in her world...but his choice
was the final blow...he had to learn her importance...he selected a girl over
their relationship ...she couldn't bear this...
Theek hai toh Aaj ke baad na tum
mere bete ho na mai tumhari mom ... she slowly spoke ...almost emphasizing the
depth of his sentence that she was about to declare ...
Mom yeh lafzh bhi tumhare zubaan
pe nahi aana chaiye ....Zains face drained with each and every word...
koi baat koi nazar koi aas
tumhari mujhe nahi chaiye...tum raho apni Aaliya ke saath ...apni duniya mai ...her
voice filled Zains heart with a needle point pain that was ripping it in small
pieces ...
she was fiddling her hands ...a
sign that showed she still hoped that Zain would not agree to her cruel demands
and forget about Aaliya...
Jaisa aap theek samjhe... a broken
voice and a miserable face spoke ...Agar aapke dil koh aisa karne se sukun milat
ho toh yehi shai...agar meri shaqal na dikhane se apki takleef kam hogi ...toh mujhe
manjoor hai ...
She knew nothing could deter Zain
...she was angry and hurt yet the mother within her heart spoke ..
Aur fikar mat karo ...Uss ladki ke
saath ...jab tak who is ghar mai hogi koi badsuluki nahi hogi ...wada hai mera
thumse...
A small happiness wrapped in a
big bundle of isolation was waiting for him ...and he decided to adopt it with a
open hug ...he wanted to squeeze out all his tears yet he failed ...cause here
stood a man ...who was no more a son ...he just looked down unable to face her ...
Every word ...every moment ...had hit
Zain ...he stood there without moving ...yet his whole world had turn upside
down ...to not talk to his mom in the same house was his worst nightmare...he
wanted to hold her hug her feel her for one final time ...but deep in his heart
he knew she can never cut off the umbilical cord...he will forever be her beloved
Zain ...but to follow her words ...will be a deadly blow ...a breathless feeling
that had started to arise in his lungs...
Mujhe bhi manzoor hai ...aur yehi
ummed pe jeeunga ki kisi din aap mujhe wapas apne usse godh mai sar rakhne ki
izzazat degi...Thank you ....and his next word faded in his heart ...Mom ...was the
only sound that could resonate from his soul ...not from his mouth ...Suraiya
walked off hiding her tears and no one stayed back to see if Zain needed a hand
...
Zain stood there for a while
slowly letting the severity of his decision sink into his life ...His love will
be here tomorrow ...someone who dosen't know he ever existed ...for her he will
be a stranger ...a known one ...but today a
son had died ...and no one mourned no one realized that except Osmans angelic
face on the wall... Zain looked at his father ...I know dad you are and will be
with me always ...take care of my M..., his inner voice had already started to
obey Suraiyas harsh words ...
Teri khamoshi koh bhi apna
mukadar maan lenge ...
Tere ek lafz par, ishi khamoshi
se apni jaan luta denge...
Sim
Pre-cap: What happens when Rhea and Zain meet each other again ...will sparks fly 😉 aage dekhiya ...
