ok people... so sorry for the delay... had writers block.... well here it goes...
the previous update, they were all lost in their own thoughts and Azaan and Sania were smiling for different reasons while Afreen was busy shedding tears at her kismat...
Afreen decides to go to the kitchen and keep herself busy instead of crying over something that can never be...Unknowingly she begins to prepare Azaan's fav sweet dish, badami kheer.(i'm writing this based on experience.I tend to prepare things unknowingly too.) She smiled as she realised the fact that she was preparing something that she didnt plan to do...She was thinking how nice if Azaan was around...
"If only Azaan is around...He loves badami kheer so much...Ah well... The rest can eat it instead..."
She also know that she don't have much time in the Khan house anymore... Soon the real Mrs Azaan will come in and she will have to leave...She was lost in her own world when suddenly a pair of hands closed her eyes and she heard a whisper close to her ears...
"Hi...Guess who..."
"AZAAN!!! Itni jaldi wapas aagayi? why didn't you tell anyone? We could have fetched you from the airport."
"Thought of giving you a surprise. Hmmm... What are you preparing? Oh wow you seem to know that i was coming back so you prepared this for me... thats really sweet.."
They exchanged glances that said it all without uttering a single word. such understanding only exist between two souls who are made for each other. Afreen looked away, feeling shy at the intensity of Azaan's gaze. He merely smiled at her reaction.
Meanwhile, Sania was outside. She was seething. THe kinda look Azaan used to give her, he was giving this witch instead. Wonder what sorta speel she's casted on her Azaan. And Azaan didnt dress the way he used to. He's dressing all diffrently. Casual but smart. Azaan seems to have changed alot in such a short while. Well that is going to change soon... very soon... in fact why not now? she approached him from behind aaannddd....
"AZAAN!!! Kaise ho tum?"
"Sania?!?! Tum yahaan kya karaahi hu?"
"Wow. is that the way you greet an old friend? no i'm not yr friend, i'm yr girlfriend.is that how you react at seeing me?? Come on, we should catch up on old stuff. Sorry bhabhi, please excuse us for a moment yea..."
She smiles a smile so sweet that can actually cause diabetes. Afreen smiles blandly and turned away. Azaan looked bewildered by all that is happening.
One, he didnt expect to see sania....TWo he didnt expect to have Afreen tolerating everything quietly. Three, what he's been planning has gone down the drain... Now, he has to do something about Sania... He is not happy seeing Sania here like this. And girlfriend? He's a married man now..
Sania meanwhile is happy at her first jeet.. well its not much but its a start... if everything goes as planned, very soon Azaan would rightfully belong to her...the look on Afreen's face was priceless when she came in and spoiled such a lovely romantic moment between the both of them... ughh, she rolls her eyes in disgust... that is not done... only she is entitled to such looks from Azaan...
Afreen breaks down again... Appa came in and saw her crying... she asked Afreen why... Reluctantly and after much persuasion, Afreen told her everything... Shocked she was but mostlt angry at Sania for coming in unannouced with the intention of breaking up a home.. She turns to afreen and told her firmly..
"Now you listen here my dear... Granted she was his girlfriend but now he is married to you, You have a right over him.----
"But he still loves him Appa..."
"Don't you give me that. How do you know? Based on what do you say that? Based on what that girl tells you? It could have been one sided. (in a softer tone..) i know you don't see him as rightfully yours on the account of him being Kabir's brother but you have to get this in your head that Kabir is not coming back and I'm sure he would not want to see you this way...sad and forlorn... Im sure he wants you to continue on living without him and who else could fill in his shoes better than Azaan? You have to fight for him. Make a place in his heart for you. And I'm sure he realsies his priorities have changed now. He's married to you. He made that commitment and he has to fulfil it too. I'm with you in this fight... and i will help you in what way possible.."
Afreen ponders at her words.. what Appa said is true... But whether Azaan loves her or not is a diffrent matter all together. Well, let time decide... Everything is in His hands. If they were meant to be, it will be....
thats all for now... be back soon...
