Epilogue.
Five year later.
A woman walked to the cemetery, holding her son's hand tightly. Tears were streaming down her face as she was near the grave.
This grave which was for the person she idolized, the person she loved the most.
"Ammi, why are you crying?" The little boy asked.
"I'm crying because I lost the most important person in my life." She replied.
"But ammi, abbu said that it happened a long time ago.."
"It's true but the pain is still there Zafar." Zoya replied while she looked at the gravestone.
(I've used the same little boy as in an other story because he's just so cute!)
"Zainab Farooqui, 7/10/1972- 8/03/1994."
After she came back from her holidays with Mr Khan, she did everything possible to give a proper funeral to her mother after she fought against everyone to find her beloved mother. Zoya was at peace now but she did the possible to visit her mother.
"Ammi, do you miss dadi?" Zafar asked and Zoya nodded, smiling because of his innocence.
"I miss her everyday." Zoya replied and Zafar hugged.
"Allah miyaan stop crying! Dadi will always be with you like Phuphi and Dada." Zafar said and Zoya smiled.
She hugged Zoya tightly.
"Let's go because your sisters are waiting for us!" Zoya exclaimed and they left to Khan Villa. Zoya didn't express it out loud but it was clear that she was closer to Zafar than her other children. It wasn't because he was the last child but she somehow saw Salman in Zafar.
When she came back home, Zoya was greeted with Tanzeela who ran into her arms. Tanzeela was Hayaa's four years old baby girl.
The little girl hugged her grandmother tightly.
"Oh you're finally back!" Exclaimed Dilshad weakly. Zoya knew that Dilshad was very sick and she also knew that soon Dilshad would die but she kept smiling because she knew that Dilshad would die peacefully as she had fulfil her dreams to see Asad's children and so much more!
"Ji ammi, I'm here! Do Sanam and Seher arrived yet?" Zoya asked hugging Dilshad tightly.
"Yes, they're in Antara's room." Dilshad said and Zoya kissed her in the forehead before going to meet her daughters.
"Knock knock!" She said knocking on the door before entering in.
"Ammi!" Seher and Sanam shouted with excitement. Seher got up to engulf her mother in a big hug then Zoya hugged Sanam and Sanam's baby Zaheer.
"How is my little boy?" Zoya cooed, pinching the little boy's cheeks. Zaheer giggled holding Zoya's fingers.
"What are you still doing here? Get out now! And Seher where is my baby Camila?" Zoya asked. Zaheer and Camila were just two months apart, Zaheer being the eldest. Being barely a year old, both of them were showered with their badi ammi's love.
"Ammi, Camila wanted to go with Rehaan and her uncle Aahil to the office." Seher said.
"Seems like she wanted to surprise her grandfather!" Sanam exclaimed.
"'I'm very jealous of the attention your baby gives to my husband." Zoya said faking jealousy.
"I'm sorry Zoya ut I think that I've fallen in love with Camila and..Tanzeela." Asad said behind Zoya.
"At least you admitted that you're cheating on me!" Zoya said smiling and got up to hug her husband. "Are you happy now that you've found someone to take care of Dilshad Constructions??" Zoya asked.
"Yes, I think that Aahil and Rehaan would be good bosses." He said and Zoya smiled and she cupped his face to kiss his nose.
"Then it's time to celebrate life!" Zoya exclaimed and brought her family out of Antara's room.
"Mrs Khan, you're always the first one for celebration!" Asad said chuckling.
They all went to the backyard for their family brunch. As always, Zoya tried to cook and she managed to do an excellent meal.
"Mrs Khan, at least today you didn't try to poison us!" Asad teased her.
"Stop it abbu! Ammi knows how to cook!" Antara argued.
"Ya Allah bhai! You only managed to have Zoya's copy carbons!" Ayaan teased and Kareena chuckled along with their son.
"Allah miyaan Zafar! You had put chocolate all over your face!" Sanam exclaimed wiping Zafar's face.
"Sorry I didn't say anything." Ayaan said.
"Hey Rabaart! I have a shayari!" Zoya exclaimed.
"Among every little thing he created,
Among every little thing he created,
God created family
Which is a word full of love
Which is full of sympathy
Which illuminates our lives like stars!"
"Vah Vah!" Everyone cheered except Asad, like always.
"Mr Khan! Again?" Zoya said and everyone laughed at their antics.
"I'm sorry, jaan. I'll applause for you back in our room!" Asad whispered in her ear and she blushed.
"Hmm.. That sounds great ."She replied.
"It seemed like life was going on and on creating some memories, deleting others, but life without family isn't a life because family are the pillar of your life, family helps you in becoming who you are and who you are depends on your family..." Zafaar read to his three years old daughter Mahek.
"This is the story of our family Mahek, after this my grandmother passed away but I was grateful because I met her first. Unfortunately, you didn't meet my mother and her shayaris and my dad with his OCD manners. But you will never have to turn your back on your aunty Hayaa, your super aunty Antara nor you aunties Sanam and Seher. Because family is something that not everyone has the chance to have but everyone can create its own family. Your family doesn't stop at me and mum, your family is beyond the seas, beyond death." Zafar whispered while tears were streaming down his face. He would always cherish this memories. The memories of his family.
The end ^^
