Chapter-5

Zubiya deposited her mug after emptying the tea that she was drinking; into the sink and went on to the window that showed out the road from the house. She had begun wondering how long will it take for her husband to return, when his car's gears dislodged into the portico.

Moving his tired frame towards the door, it was instantly opened by his wife, without his entering the keys into the lock. He gave her an exhausted smile. The day had wearied him off. Though he saw her multiple times a day at the hospital, this one was more a husband kind of a smile to his wife, who he knew he had to answer.

"Asfi..." Zubiya went after him in the room.

"Abhi nahi Zubi... Main bohot thak gaya hoon." He removed his overcoat that saved him from the cold outside. Central heater already making the house cozy.

"Abhi nahi toh kab Asfi? Aapke paas waqt hi kahan hai? Subah uthte hain toh running ke liye chale jaate hain, phir aapka breakfast, phir hospital... Uske timings bhi humare match nahi hote... Hospital mein toh aapko patients ke alaava kisi cheez ka hosh toh hota nahi hai. Uske baad hospital se aate-aate aap ye waqt kar dete hain. Main aakhir aapse baat karoon kab?" Zubiya was mightily frustrated by her husband's behaviour for the past month and finally all hell broke loose today, when he out rightly refused to talk.

"Zubiya, tum mujhse ladd kyu rahi ho bhayi? Ek toh itni raat ho rahi hai, sab so rahe hain. Maama-Baba ki neend disturb hogi..." Asfandyar tried diffusing the situation.

Zubiya shut the door behind her, locked all the windows, closing all possibilities of their sounds going out, before she continued. "Ab kisi ki neend disturb nahi hogi, ab baat keejiye mujhse..."

Asfi sighed as he sat on the bed, folding his shirt sleeves- "Kya baat karni hai Zubiya?"

"Asfi, aise kaise chalega? Aap raat ke 2-2 baje wapas aa rahe hain ghar. Do you realise maama-baba, mujhe... Hum sabko kitni fikar lagi rehti hai? Main aapke ghar aaye bina soti nahi hoon unless aapki night duty na ho... Ye kya schedule bana rakha hai?" Zubiya was complaining.

Asfi gave her a nervous laugh as he began-" Zubi, tum bilkul housewives ki tarah behave kar rahi ho, who get insecured ki unke shauhar kahan dil laga ke aa rahe hain... For God's sake, tum bhi ek doctor ho, tum toh samajhti ho ki medical profession calls for all sorts of emergencies. Phir iss tareeqe ka ravaiyya kyu?" he had his hands raised in the air being flummoxed.

"Asfi, emergencies har roz nahi hoti, aur hoti bhi hain toh uske liye hum apna staff prepare karte hain. Khud raat din itna masroof nahi hote usmein." Zubiya countered.

Asfi rubbed his forehead trying to hold on to his patience- "Zubiya, hum naya wing construct kara rahe hain apne hospital mein. You know it. Kitne efforts lag rahe hain, you know that too. Hospital humara hai toh work bhi hum hi ho dekhna hoga na?"

Zubiya had just begun nodding, understanding his point. But before he could look at her, his patience broke free, and words tumbled out of his mouth- " Khair... Main ye sochta tha ki Fariyal se nahi, tumse shaadi ka sabse bada positive point ye hai ki tum bhi ek doctor ho, samjhogi meri baat. Pata nahi kyu you are behaving like a hormone struck teenager or a sex-starved housewife.!"

Asfi just ran short out of words as he saw colours changing over Zubiya's face. The understanding face turned horrid with surprise and turned red with anger. Without a word, she picked up her pillow and cell phone, and rushed out of the room, straight to Gaiti's empty room, and locked it from inside, even before Asfand could come after her. Throwing her pillow on the bed, switching off her cell phone, Zubiya jumped inside the bed and covered herself inside the duvet. "Sex-starved! That's what he thinks I am? Now you will know Mister Husband, what that means!" her eyes turning devilishly angry.

Asfi stumbled down on the bed when he heard the door click close. He was thrown alone for the night for the words he uttered. Brushing palms carelessly on his face, instant regret crossed his face. His tired mind didn't hold reigns over his tongue, and things just fell apart. He can't bang the door to Bhabhi's room just now, or it will create a scene. He will truly apologize to her tomorrow, he thought to himself. Changing himself in a soft lower and T-shirt, he lay on the bed, and the tiredness took over as he blacked out instantly to sleep.

In the same house, other room Zubiya kept twisting and turning in the bed. Firstly because, she wasn't used to this room, nor this bed. Secondly, Asfi's absence. Even if he had been on night duty, the pillow beside her made her feel his presence. His body cologne left his traces behind, it used to lull her to sleep. But today, apart from all the physical changes, her mind was also disturbed. Was she plaguing his mind by constantly asking him questions? Was she being a nagging housewife after him, so much so that he had to stoop down to compare her with Fariyal after so many months into marriage? Is that what he thought she was, pestering like Fariyal? Did she understand less of him? What went wrong all of a sudden to her marriage? Why was he so stood apart? Is it really busyness or is there some underlying issue that still lay unaddressed? Zubiya could hardly sleep through the night!
