"Na..nahi...bha...bhai aisa...nahi hai...wo bas ...khane ka mann...nahi tha isliye" she said while looking here and there.

"Accha wo sab chodo, hum ek news share karna chahte hai. We are expecting soon. Alhamdullilah" shahmir announced while breaking nayla more.

Nayla composed herself and congratulated her eldest bhabhi.

"Congratulations bhabhi" rubab accepted her hug and patted her back.

Nayla after breakfast went to her room to prepare for her exam.

While here, all the ladies of the house were pampering rubab too much. As it was their elder daughter-in-law giving them heir.

Rubab too was liking the attention she got from sharing this news.

"Are nayla aaona dekho humsab shopping pe jaa rahe hai. Aao tum bhi chalo. Bada maza aayega" rania one of her cousin called her when she was going to get her jug filled.

"Nahi rania baji, aap sab jaye mujhe taiyyari karni hai" she said as she saw how rubab and shahmir were happy in their own world. And she didn't wanted to put bad omen on them.

People say, that your intentions can also cause bad to others.

So better to stay away and that is what she is going to do.

"Ya allah sabr" she whispered while few traitors tears escaped her eyes.

Don't know why but she felt helpless. So she did one thing that was the best.

She went in sujood. She cried and cried and begged in front of her and all of the world's creator.

She asked for forgiveness and prayed for the baby's safety.

She took out her diary and went through it.

How she loved him from teenage, to how she had his photos from his college days. Even his childhood pictures are there. She had secretly stolen it from the family album just to see it daily and smile.

While that smile turned in tears really quick.

She kept her diary aside and went towards her balcony.

She saw all her cousins coming inside. They had so many shopping bags, they all are looking so happy, like a full happy family. And what is she. She is just a burden.

Her grand parents made her feel that. When they were alive, they used to taunt her. Because she wasn't like them. They all had fair kashmiri skin while she was dark.

They thought that her mother had an affair, but her ammi knew better.

She was their child.

Taunts, separation, works, pressure all this made her distance from her family.
Her mother was the only person who knew the truth. Her father was darker and her mother was fairer. So she got fair skin, but that was not the same case with her daughter. And this made her prominent to taunts and all.

Her dad too believed that she is not his child.

But allah knows better.

This made her to stay away from everyone except her mother. Her elder brother too hated her as he thought that she is not their sister. But her younger brother hammad never discriminate her. He loved her with all he had.

Ammar her elder brother was close to his father, while hammad is close to his mother.

Hammad was the one who stayed awake whenever she would kick her mother's womb.

So he had practically seen her before her birth.

Flashback

"Aaye haye, kaha chali ra*di ki beti. Mere bete ki to zindagi barbad kardi us churail ne. Ab tu bhi mere pote ki zindagi barbad kar. Dono maa beti ek jaisi hi hai" nayla heard her dadi say while she was playing with her maad bhai. Only hammad played with her while all the others ditched her, as she was bad. She had dark skin with pimples on her face.
