Since I made you sad you all with my last OS, so here's a light one to cheer you all up! You can call me crazy but please blame QH for my condition! š

Asad entered his house late that night, exhausted after a hard day's work to find his small family gathered in the TV room watching something intently on TV. It must've been something really interesting because they all failed to notice his presence in the room.
"Assalaam-o-Alaikum!" He greeted them all loudly but only got hurried, half-hearted replies from them in response.
'What's up with them?' He thought to himself puzzled but then it struck him and he glanced at the clock, groaning out loud on seeing the time.
9:30 p.m. Time for that stupid show! What was its name again?? Ahh yes, Qubool Hai! He groaned mentally.
"Am I going to get any dinner?" He asked the three ladies sitting motionless in front of him.
"Sshh! Don't talk right now, Asad." Zoya said with her eyes glued to the screen.
"What? But-"
"Sshh!" Three voices hushed him at once.
"Fine!" He said angrily, pouring himself some water from the jug since Najma was too busy staring open-mouthed at the screen.
"OMG!! I swear Karan Singh Grover DEFINES hotness!" Najma said dreamily after a while, causing Asad to choke on the water he was drinking.
"What??" He bellowed. Was it his innocent baby sister who just said that?
"Oh yes! You just have to look at him to fall in love." Zoya replied, sighing.
"Thanks for the offer but I'm not interesting in that and Zoya, let me remind you that you're MARRIED to me!" Asad was positively horrified to see his wife going crazy over another man.
"So what? If I had it my way, I would've gotten married to him. Shame, Jenny got there before me.
"Zoya-"
"Sshh! Quiet now!"
Asad began massaging his forehead to keep himself from screaming out loud. His family seem to completely disown him as soon as Qubool Hai started airing. I wonder what will they do if I have a cardiac arrest right now? Probably will take me to the hospital AFTER watching the complete episode WITH the precap! After all, their daily dose of Qubool Hai and Karan was more important.
"I hate to admit it but he can be a bit rude at times." He heard Tamatar mumbling. He didn't understand what she meant so he assumed it must be related to the stupid serial.
"No, he isn't!" Dilshad replied indignantly.
"Phuppi, he's so very handsome thats why you overlook his every mistake, right?" Zoya said with a twinkle in her eyes and Asad almost fainted on seeing his mother blush like a teenage girl! What was this world coming to?
"Ohhh!! The hug! We're finally going to get the hug in the next episode!!" Zoya and Najma screamed suddenly and began hugging each other, jumping with happiness all the while.
"Is this stupid serial finished? Can I finally get some food now?" He asked sarcastically.
"If you want food Asad, next time don't call this serial stupid!" Dilshad said crossily.
Asad pinched the bridge of his nose to control his anger and replied, "Okay, I'm sorry!"
As his mother went to the kitchen to get him dinner, he saw Zoya sat on the couch with the laptop.
"Zoya, I need the laptop. Are you doing something important?"
"Of course, I am. You can take it after having dinner."
Long after Asad was finished eating dinner, his wife was still not done. Curious, he went behind her sofa and peeked over her shoulder, reading the text she had just written and his eyes popped out.
I knowww! KSG was looking sooo HAWT in that black suit *drools all over the place* Can't wait for the hug *jumps up and down* š
"What in the world are you doing?" He asked wide eyed.
"Discussing the episode on IF!" She replied as if it was obvious.
"IF?" He knitted his eye brows.
"India forums, Asad! In what world are you living?"
"So this India forums is a site filled with crazy obsessed Qubool Hai fangirls?"
"Hey! We're not crazy but yeah, you got that right!" She replied nonchalantly, her eyes still glued to the screen.
"But... What is there to discuss about the episode?"
"The hug, Asad!"
"What's so special about that hug? I've seen the two leads lying on top of each other, the guy carrying the girl in his arms and what not and you're still excited about the hug? They've practically done everything only a married couple is supposed to do!"
"Urghh! You won't understand! This is the first time they are doing it intentionally!"
"Oh and the rest of the time, they weren't?"
"Yes!"
"So basically, the rest of the times, the girl somehow ends up on the guy's lap by mistake? Wish that happened with me!"
"It does, Asad! Now go to sleep! I'm so excited." She squealed turning back to the laptop.
Asad could only look at his wife's face with disbelief etched on his. This show had made his family crazy!
Sighing, he picked up his clothes and made his way to the bathroom, knowing no amount of persuading will make him get his wife's attention tonight.
