She sighs, her belly began expanding, she was beginning to show ... on bedrest she had gained a lot of weight quickly ...being very athletic she had to give up on her daily jogging and exercise routine. Lying on the Ultrasound table Jo gets excited feeling the baby move again. Placing her hand on her belly whispers "beta, forgive me please for robbing from you the pleasure of feeling your father's touch and hearing his voice from the time we conceived you...he would love to feel you and talk to you too but right now I am in a bind.." overwhelmed by emotions tears begin to flow down her cheeks, pining for his touch, his voice ...feeling of loneness envelops her, when alone her mind fills with thoughts running all over the place, thinking about the present, past and the darkest secrets she shared with Jalal ... no one to share her joy's and sorrows ...Zehr walks in gushing "I have good news for you Jo, you can partially be off bedrest now, that means you can get up and walk about a 100 feet, to bathroom, no climbing stairs... but take it easy and don't overdo, stay close to the hospital don't venture out too far" seeing Jo's tears gives her a reassuring hug, her beeper goes off, she silences it and whispers "I know you are missing Jalal ... I told you this pregnancy will be hard, you should have listened to me and got him involved, it is still not too late to make things right" placing her hands on Jo's stomach continues "you are 25 weeks pregnant and into your 3^rd trimester ... everytime you feel tightening or pain please call me immediately ...our goal is to keep you from getting contractions" her beeper goes off, "I've got to go, not sure when Sunny will drop in, when I spoke to him this afternoon he seemed stressed out, he said something about Mirza and Glencore sorry Jo, see you later" blowing her a kiss leaves ...Jo recalls Glencore, a business venture in Switzerland bought up by Jalal but managed by Bajaj .. Sunny's family owned 40% Glencore shares and Jalal owned 60% ... Jo wanted to badly log into work and check but decided against it...Jalal would track her down...maybe it was only fair to let Jalal know about the baby...looks at the clock ...it was 5pm wonders if Jalal was in NY or travelling...picks up her phone turns it on and texts him "please...I want to talk to you ...J" waited, no answer turns off her phone. she texted him atleast twice every month but never got any response back from him ...leans back against the pillows heaving anxiously, worried about the future when there was a brisk knock on the door and without waiting for an answer the door flew open, Jo looks up ..Mirza was standing there staring at her with a bunch of flowers...dumbstruck... they looked at each other quietly " bhabhi..." Mirza walks in "I did not believe when Sunny told me about you...sorry bhabhi ...I was getting ready to kill Sunny ... I gave him no choice but to tell me your secret..." Jo was happy to see Mirza, tears of Joy roll down her cheeks as she excitedly talks to him ..."Mirza I am so glad to see you" she questions him about his family his brother in particular which he curtly ignores, Mirza explains "I misunderstood Sunny, I thought he was fooling around with you and slacking off with work...he let Glencore's production drop over 50% in the past 6 months ...bhaijaan did not want to deal with Sunny, he sent me...we got into a big fight during the board meeting, he asked me to take care of Sunny , a lot of name calling and accusing...Sunny could not take it anymore, he pulled me aside and explained everything ...now I am here for you," Jo was stunned but recovers quickly "you have to promise me to help me with Jalal" Mirza agrees but says "Bhabhi, bhaijaan has a right to know, it is his baby too ... he is ruining himself worried about you but to proud to acknowledge it... " Jo tearfully agrees

"Mirza I have tried to reach you Bhai, but he does not answer my texts" Jo complained ...I want to go see him, talk to him and explain my situation...my OB told me I could go and visit but to be careful ...Mirza recalls the many times he ran into Jalal and Asiya at the penthouse ...Jalal was in NY with his mother and Asiya...much as he wanted to share his worries with Jo he decides not to upset her ... "and it is his birthday tomorrow, promise me you'll take me" she begs ...without a choice Mirza agrees... quickly sends an out of office and contact Abdul' email to all employees and logs off. It was almost 7pm when Dr Zehr walked in with a pretty younger looking female "Jo, Sunny will not make it, he got tied up at work, had to leave for Switzerland immediately, will be away for about a week, I asked my sister to come and help me" when the pretty girl walks over to Mirza and they hug lightly, blushing a bit Mirza explains "bhabi meet Almaz my girlfriend ...we went to college together, but we started dating 6 months ago ...Zehr and Jo looked surprised but happy "it's a small world, who would think we would become close relatives Zehr ...this day has brought me a lot of happiness ... thank you Zehr for being there for me and helping me with this ordeal " Zehr squeezes her hands saying "Jo what are sisters for, Sunny is your childhood friend ... You brought us together I owe it to you..." Zehr briefly explains the situation "Zehr, I must admit why Sunny and you fear my bhaijaan ...if he found out about the risk you are taking he would have killed you both made Bhabhi abort the baby immediately, he loves her too much to risk her life that's what he told me" Jo was happy to have Mirza involved ...she felt at peace ...he could be her bridge to Jalal ... Mirza and Almaaz leave Jo alone "Bhabhi, can you manage for about an hour, I want to take Almaaz to starbucks, we'll be back shortly" and excuses himself ...Mirza actually had gone to talk privately to Zehr who updated him on the seriousness of the situation and the danger in which Jo placed herself, Mirza mentally analyzes and decides his Bhabhi needed more help and support than what he or Sunny could provide...he contacts Maham ...Jalal's badiammi, explains the situation ...Jalal's involvement with Asiya, his drug and alcohol issues, his ammijaan's role in their separation, and finally Jo's pregnancy ...why Jo wants to keep it a secret from everyone including her own parents and sister and why he can't get Abdul involved ...she agrees to come and help Jo and Jalal had set up Adham's flourishing business with their own funds and helped him expand all over India...he quickly arranges for her travel to NY ...when he returns, stood out shocked to hear his bhai's voice, sounding calm and peaceful ... he rushes into his Bhabhi's room, she had her phone on her belly playing recorded messages, she looks up and him and explains "sit Mirza, this can be future training for you, learn from your bhai, when I was pregnant with twins, he would talk to our babies and send me recorded messages to play for them when he traveled and was away from us, I saved the messages, it has come in handy now, I get to listen to his voice too" she smiles... Mirza notices pain in her voice ...he vows to himself, he will do all in his power to kick Asiya out of his Bhai's life ... "Mirza don't forget you promised to take me to see your bhai tomorrow ..." Mirza reluctantly agrees "bhabhi you know it is risky in your condition ...but as promised I will do anything for my nephew and for you ofcourse "

The following day Mirza took her to Jalal's NY penthouse ...Jo knocked on his door and opened it when she heard a female voice huskily whispering "Jalal, Jalal...don't do this to me..." Plastering a smile on her face walks in to share her happiness with the man she loves, the man she lost herself to, the man she trusted ...and was shocked to see Asiya bent over him...her dislodged clothes left very little for imagination of their activities ...her eyes darted to Jalal who seemed spaced out, lost..."Asiya get out of her right now" she yelled coughing as the smoke hit her, grabbing her belly that had begun to show her state of pregnancy ...Asiya walks past her angrily stops and whispers "I will have him under my control soon, he will not want you or your love anymore, look at you, you have gotten fat and shapeless ...big breasts, big stomach, big butt ...Jalal lusted after your swimsuit body and now your body is far from it you should do cocaine too, it will increase your metabolism and help you stay slim and trim" the smell of alcohol and cigarettes on her breath nauseates her ... her first thought, she wanted to leave immediately did not want the smoke to harm her unborn child...but seeing Jalal in the state he was, she could not...it was his birthday and she wanted surprise him with her secret...she wanted to feel him feel his touch...she knew she hurt him and he was probably fighting back...her gut feelings told her he would not cheat on her love, "get out Asiya" she yelled again as the door slammed shut...she walked towards Jalal who was sitting behind his desk, leaning back in his chair smoking, looking stoned...Jo sees traces of white powder on his desk and two tiny plastic bags with white powder ..."Jalal are you doing drugs ?" Jo was shocked ...suddenly air in the room became too thick, feeling suffocated, she could not breathe...she needed to get out...she turns to leave when she feels his hands grab hers, pulling her against him ... " yes, I was doing coke, it numbs my pain, the pain you got me into...where are you going my wild kitten? ...I just want to hold you" he whispered "where have you been, why did you leave me, I am glad you are back" Jo pushes him away, his breath reeked of alcohol, he was drunk ... "Jalal, why are you doing cocaine?" he gave her a blank stare ...he was drunk and high, before she has time to react he begins kissing her, touching her intimately ...she tries to push him away but her body betrays her, she succumbs to his passion blaming her pregnancy harmones "Jalal, I'm pregnant, be gentle na" taking his hands she places them on her belly... "it's a boy" she whispered ... "I want you to feel our child kick and move, I want you to talk him, kiss him Jalal" Jo was getting comfortable in his arms, too comfortable "Salim, that's the name we choose for our next boy" she continues when she feels his hands fall away from her as he falls back on the couch passes out completely ...Jo hears footsteps ...she runs and hides behind the curtains ...MIL and Asiya walk in, putting on an innocent face says... "look sasa ...your son, is drunk he is also doing drugs ... even after telling I am pregnant he says he won't marry me but uses my body" shedding fake tears ... Dumbfounded, Jo slowly walks out without being seen...

Mirza was waiting for her near the elevator ...he sees tears in her eyes "I've hurt Jalal too much, I can't see him this way, I came to wish him but did not" the pain was so much, unbearable ...like it had a death grip on her heart, squeezing it tightly, she did not give it much thought when she agreed to HB's challenge and walked away from him ...but it all made sense now...her MIL had her own agenda ...recalls the conversation she had with HB "Ammijaan, I know my husband very well, he will never marry Asiya ... I am hating I agreed to the engagement, we are destroying her future" HB glares at her angrily "what do you mean he will never marry her, I know my son, he will marry her to fulfil my desire and keep me happy" Jo shakes her head, "no ammijaan, Jalal loves me, he promised me he will never get involved with any other women" HB laughs "my son is moghul ...he does not care for things like love ...he respects you that's all" Jo adamantly continues "no ammijaan ..please don't ruin that girl's life and Jalal's life ... if Jalal truly wants to marry her I will not stand in his way ...but I know he will never do that to me" HB walks up to her "you think my son is crazy after you only ...a woman is a woman ... he feels guilty for forcing you to marry him, he feels guilty about your accident, he pity for you not love, that's all ...he'll get over it as soon as Asiya begins her life with him ... why don't you leave and stay away from Jalal for 3 months ...don't keep in touch with him, he'll forget you quickly and move on to the next woman " Jo was stunned at HB's challenge ... but it did give her time away from Jalal's passion, she will have to be on pelvic rest for another 4 weeks atleast after the procedure today, and then if no contractions or bleeding, light sex will be okay per Zehr ...she would not be able handle Jalal's passion at present, and was not in a position to share the good news of her pregnancy yet .. that was 9 weeks ago. "Mirza, I took the biggest gamble of my life and I think I am about to loose it" she sobbed ...

Mirza ushered her to the car quickly before Abdul saw them ...he realized his Bhabhi found out everything ...Asiya, Alcohol, drugs, sex ...it disgusted him ...he hated his brother even more now, he quietly support her by listening as she tearfully continued ... "I don't know anything anymore Mirza, what he just did is not love ...love does not act like that with another woman, love has self-control ...love does not hurt the person it claims to care about" ... Her tears fall freely not out of sadness but out of anger, anger at herself for allowing this to happen ... he drives quietly letting her vent out her fears and anger ... tears pour down her face as she recalls Jalal's eyes, she could not fathom how his one look could make her feel so weak and unprotected... she risked everything to meet him so she could surprise him and that girl Asiya called her fat ...she had wanted to scream "I am pregnant and I am allowed to get fat" leaning back, letting her head rest against the window Jo recalls the time when she was pregnant with twins, she was 7 months pregnant getting ready for Jalal's birthday party, could not fit into any of her fancy clothes ... Walking away from Jalal threw an emotional tantrum about being fat, a smiling Jalal came up behind her, taking her by her shoulders and turns her towards the mirror, lifting up her tshirt exposing her naked belly whispers "you are not fat baby, just pregnant ...with babies my two babies ...giving my seeds a safe environment to grow and nurture in my love..." kissing and nibbling her neck, running the palm of his hands along her belly continues to seductively whisper "your boobs are getting bigger because nature has you getting ready to continue nurturing my babies once they are born ...making them dependent on you for their food" placing his hands on her hips pulling her "and your hips are perfect as they are getting ready to birth them" she continues crying...she missed Jalal love, his touch, he had a way with words ...a sudden kick brought brings her back to reality, she had another 3 months to go.. rubbing her belly tearfully. "Mirza, she claims she is pregnant, I know Jalal very well, he is not the father to that baby, today he did not seem to comprehend what I was telling him he was drunk and high on drugs and he was avoiding her ...she was angry when I went in, I doubt he would have touched her, she probably threw her naked self on him ... could you please do a complete background check on her and get details about her life" Mirza agrees, they reach the hospital ...

He helps her back to her room to find Maham had arrived and was waiting for them ...as soon as Jo sees her she runs and hugs her begins sobbing ...Maham comforts her "hey stop that crying ... You are emotionally hurting my pota ...you know your baby can feel your sadness and happiness ...you need to be happy and healthy as he is growing inside you, so he can develop with happy emotions and be healthy baby" Maham's presence was comforting, a mother like figure in her life when see needed one ... Jo was able to relax. Zehr met with Maham privately and gave her a quick version of Jo's current status ... Her circle of support was beginning to grow ...days, weeks and 2 months passed by ...Jo was placed on full bedrest by the end of her 7^th month ...she had started to bleed ..her blood pressure went very high and her ankles swelled up ...Unknown to Jo ...Maham made arrangements to visit Jalal for a week... She heard Jo's point of view and Mirza's point of view ...she wanted to see for herself...Sunny, Mirza and his girlfriend Almaz took turns to stay with Jo the week Maham went away... Jalal met her at the airport "Badiammi, it's a pleasure to meet you" giving her a tight hug ...Jalal looked thin ... his brows were creased with worry ...although he was talking to her, he seemed far away ...almost lost ...he was not the same Jalal she had grown to love, he seemed distant and offhanded... "so beta how is life" she questions him on their way home, Jalal smiles "fine badiammi" and looks away ..."how is your wife?" Jalal does not answer, "look at me beta" Jalal looks at her he seemed withdrawn as he shakes his head "she must be fine" and looks away again ...they reach home ... HB and Asiya were waiting for them ...

HB graciously hugs and welcomes her, then tells Jalal "beta, introduce Asiya beti to your badiammi" she watches as Asiya walks over and tries to side hug Jalal ...Jalal moves away saying "badiammi this is Asiya, my ammijaan's favorite niece" excuses himself and leaves towards the study with Asiya following him ...watching the interaction Maham realizes that Jo was right ...Jalal is not involved the girl physically or emotionally, she had to investigate ...they have tea together, HB seemed stressed as she talked about Asiya's pregnancy and Jalal's upcoming marriage ... Maham was shocked "Jalal did not tell me anything about getting married" HB anxiously held her hands and pleaded "please, he will listen to you, tell him he has to marry Asiya, she is young and pregnant ...he refuses to marry her" Maham thinks for a moment and asks "why, Jalal doubts Asiya ? what about Jo Hamida, I have not seen her, where is she? What does she have to say about all this?" HB gets up angrily almost shouting "don't talk to me about her ...she left my son for another man, she is fooling around with the Bajaj boy, he always came to the house and took her out ..Asiya and my bhai showed me the pictures ...no wife will behave like her going out with another man ...she was jealous of Asiya" she sees Asiya walk out to the balcony and lite up begins to smoke ..."she smokes" maham questions HB ... "yes, Jalal does not mind ...he smokes too" getting up walks and closing the balcony door asks "are you okay with her smoking Hamida?" HB nods "It does not bother me, my husband smoked and nowadays girls smoke for style, she told me she pretends to smoke for style" shaking her head maham tells her "she is pregnant and smoking is not good for the baby ...you know it very well Hamida" HB was taken back ... "excuse me Maham, I am tired" and leaves not wanting to get pulled into conversation ...maham watches as Asiya pulls out a packet, opens it, rolls it snorts it ...then continues to smoke ...Maham was familiar with this type of behavior, she was doing cocaine ...Adham had the same addiction in college ...

Jalal comes out of his office and sees Asiya smoking "hey you claim you are pregnant, smoking is not good for the baby's health" he yells walking away towards the stairs, no emotions ...Asiya walks back in "and why do you care ... you won't marry me" Jalal walks back " I told you, I am already married and I love my wife, get that into your thick skull, I will never marry you and that baby is not mine, I never touched you ... Ammijaan might believe it, but not me" ... she picks up a books and throws it at him "you are so mean ...I will tell ammijaan and your wife dumped you for another man remember ... do you want me to show you more pictures" she laughs as Jalal walks back and grabbing her by her shoulders shakes her saying "don't ever say that about her again, I will strangle you with my bare hands if you continue this ... I will kick you and your parents out of this house, I can't believe I am putting up with you bullshitting for my mother's sake ..." Maham watched this interaction quietly. Jalal walks away and turns around, walks back to her and asks "hey give me some coke ...I have not had any today" she walks away "no, I am not giving you any...you talk to me only when you want .." Maham gets up Jalal looks surprised, does not say anything, walks away up the stairs ...
