So guys! This is the final chapter of the first thread of my story 'A second chance'! Then I'll post the second thread but not right now! (I prefer writing my emotional speech at the end of this story or else you'll get bored 😆😆).

"Ammi!" Rehaan and Aahil shouted as well. Tanveer fell in front of Sanam, bleeding. Sanam let the gun and went to untie Rehaan, Seher and her parents. When she had freed everyone, she hugged her parents tightly.
"Abbu, ammi!" Asad and Zoya cried of happiness when they hugged their daughter. Zoya had never felt so complete until now. Her daughters were finally with her. She recalled all her memories with Sanam and Seher, how they were born, when they called her 'ma', she was beyond happiness. She cried on her daughter's shoulder and kissed her neck tenderly. Seher had finally gained her consciousness and Aahil as well. Seher had ran into her parents arms and had hugged them tightly as she had finally found all her family. Asad held her daughter's face and kissed her forehead.
"You won't be alone any more Seher." He said and she cried of happiness as she hugged them once more not believing that her parents were with her. Asad had finally found another reason to smile. He remembered their birth, how Sanam and Seher used to call him 'dada', he remembered when he piggy-backed them...
On the other hand, Rehaan and Aahil were with their mother and Sanam was looking at them.
"Ammi stay calm, everything will be okay. Sanam, call an ambulance!" Aahil said.
"Leave me alone Aahil! You're not my son and you'll never be my son! You had betrayed me by stopping me from killing Seher or whatever her name is! You're just a bas***d! My only son is Rehaan!"
All of them were shocked. They would never believe that Tanveer would be that cruel. Rehaan had let her as soon as she said this however, Aahil had stayed by her side.
"I can't imagine that I'm your son! I'm so ashamed of this! You had destroyed a family and rejected your son when all you could think about was him! You were always saying Aahil is better than me and you always dismissed me because his father was rich! You're just blinded by power! You can love any one!" Rehaan said.
"My daughter will avenge my death! She will finish my work!" Tanveer said and died.
"Aahil..." Sanam said but Aahil slapped her. "Don't you dare approach me! My mother is dead because of your family! I hate you! She had destroyed your family and now you've destroyed mine! I hope you're happy with what you did Sanam Ahmed Khan." Asad lost his temper and punched Aahil on the face.
"Asad/Abbu!" Sanam, Seher and Zoya screamed at the same time.
"How can you hit my daughter! Don't you dare talk to her again Aahil!" Zoya finally managed to take Asad away from Aahil.
"Asad, jaan please don't. He's just angry. Give him some time." Zoya said and helped Asad getting up. Then they left with Seher and a heartbroken Sanam.
Zoya was holding Sanam and Seher tightly while Sanam was crying.
"Ammi where were you during all this time?" Seher asked.
"During all this time, I was in UK. Ayaan, your uncle had rescued Asad and I when Tanveer had harassed us, then we went to UK and we lived there for seventeen years. We had tried to contact Dilshad ammi but we didn't have any way to contact her. And you know Seher, what brought us here was the fact that we discovered that ammi didn't manage to take you with her. We found out that you were in UK and when we went to your apartment, you were already gone to India. But I had never lost faith in Allah that someday he will reunite us."
Seher and Sanam hugged their mother while Asad looked at them sweetly. They had finally arrived at Khan villa.
Zoya had gripped Asad's hand tightly as she thought about their time in this house which witnessed the beginning of their relationship. Asad smiled at Zoya as they walked to the front door. Sanam and Seher entered the house first and Dilshad got up from her seat immediately.
"Sanam! Seher! Where were you! Allah miyaan I was so worried about you!" She said and then both of them stepped aside and Zoya and Asad came into view.
"As..Asad! Zo..Zoya!" Dilshad said shocked. They entered the house and Dilshad remembered every time they had entered this house together. Her children were here with her, alive. They were alive!
"Ammi" They said at the same and Dilshad walked to them and hugged them tightly.
"Where were you during all this time? Why did you let me suffer during all this time? Why?!" She inquired as tears were falling freely.
"I'm sorry ammi." Asad said and they hugged once more.
"And what about Najma?" She asked and at the same time Haaya got downstairs.
"Ayaan had done everything possible but it was impossible to save Tamatar, she was already dead when he saved us." Asad said while Zoya looked at Haaya. She was the same girl they had bumped into at the cemetery. She did all her possible to tell her what she had wanted to say since Tanveer's murders.
"Haaya, I know that no one will replace Najma as even I can't find someone like your ammi. Since your birth, I had considered you as my daughter. Today in front of our family, I'm asking you to take me and Asad as your parents. We'll do everything to shower you with all the love and affection you need. Plus I have a surprise for you but you have to wait for a while." Haaya hugged Zoya and when they separated, she shocked the couple by saying:
"Ji ammi." She could hear and talk as Seher who was the only heir of her adoptive parents had offered her to pay for an operation. The little family was happy as ever and Zoya and Asad had moved with Dilshad and their children. Zoya had called Ayaan saying she wanted them in India as soon as possible.
"Seher!!" They heard Sanam shout. Asad and Zoya rushed to the room only to find Sanam on the floor and one part of the room was messy while the other one was tidy. Zoya helped her getting up while Seher came into the room.
"Are you serious Seher? Leaving all your make up on the floor like this! I've fallen because of your eye liner!" Sanam said and both Asad and Zoya laughed.
"Jeez Mr Khan! They seemed exactly like us!" Zoya said. Sanam and Seher smiled seeing they're parents happy.
"Zoya beta?" Dilshad asked entering the room.
"Ji ammi?" Zoya replied.
"We need to go to Punjab, Haaya will get engaged there."
"Oh really! Ayaan and Sheereen ammi will come tomorrow and then we'll go to Punjab!" Zoya said and Dilshad nodded.
She smiled at her bahu and kissed her forehead.
"Thank you for putting back happiness in my life." Dilshad declared.
"And what about us?" Sanam, Seher and Asad said.
"You?" Dilshad said referring to Seher, "clean your room. And you?" She turned to Sanam. "Stop it with your OCD manners! My son is enough! And you Mr Asad Ahmed Khan! Well it's thanks to Zoya that you're smiling again!" Dilshad said then she giggled.
"Just kidding! Come here!" She opened her arms and the four of them hugged her.
'Ya Allah, thank you for bringing my happiness back.' Dilshad thought while she was kissing Zoya's forehead. Now she could die peacefully because she had the chance to see her children once more.
