Basit is instinctively protective towards Ayesha. From the very first encounter they had, he felt a connection with her. Not romantic but he related to her. When he was taking her interview and she said that her family was going through a financial crisis, you could see the words had an immediate impact on him since he was in a similar situation at that time. His very offer of the job was a sign of protectiveness.
Then the way he gave her the advance of her salary, without a second query, was again, a sign of protectiveness. As an employer, but nonetheless, it was there. Then ofcourse, the big scene of punishing Jawad for spreading malicious gossip..Sorry bolo Ayesha ko!!! Woah!
Then the offer of the ride home. Again, that question, ghar pe koi mard nahi hai...for a second there was almost a worried concern in his voice, just thinking that Ayesha is running the household on her own.
Post-marriage he had retreated away from her...but even then the balm scene showed his concern.
This being said, now time for the assumptions....I think Basit will find the idea of Ayesha at her mother's place itself something that worries him since he has seen how Qudsia had sent Ayesha back when the girl had wanted to stay at her mother's place for just one night. He won't be able to have her in that house for long because of his need to protect his wife. So even if he is angry at her, he will bring her back with him.
I think I tagged you to a post where I had made this assumption that Basit might have kissed Ayesha the night before that weird breakfast scene. Ayesha seemed to be expecting warmth from him and is all decked up for his eyes. And he just ups and leaves, and there was clear disappointment on her face as he calls Karim for his coat. 😆
You are absolutely right about Basit’s subtle display of protectiveness pre marriage. However, I saw it more as Basit empathising with Ayesha’s situation considering that both were similarly “majboor”.
I am now curious about the post marriage protectiveness ☺️ The balm scene was such a delight and he seemed genuinely concerned for a small wound. I wonder how would he react if it was a bigger concern. We may just get to see Basit in his full fledged protective mode once he begins to fall for her.
You could be right be right about Basit being worried once he leaves his wife at her mother’s, especially when he knows his mother in law’s nature. He’ll probably bring her back even while angry at her, just to save her from Qudsia. Can’t wait for this 😂
I don’t know how I seem to have missed your comment on Basit kissing Ayesha the night before the breakfast scene 🥰 Ayesha was downright awkward in that scene but she was so dressed up as compared to the other days. I loved her outfit and wonder if Basit noticed how pretty she looked in that colour and with those earrings ❤️
Maybe Ayesha’s awkwardness had everything to do with the kiss. They have shown Ayet sharing a bed and even being comfortable while sharing, considering that this is a Pak drama and that we will never get a straight response, maybe they have shared some intimacy. Who knows? Wish there was a way to find out 😅
