Khizaan

Chapter 5

21st October.

"Main kya keh rahi thi badminton rakh lete hain. Aj toh mousam bhi kitna achha hai, maza ayega." Uswa and Hyra were packing their essentials needs, and some snacks for the farm house, it was at least 3 hours drive away, that's why they had to leave early, they had to return early too. Though Uswa wanted to stay the night there, she liked it there, but they couldn't as tomorrow was reception of Dawar and Laraib.

(I think we should take badminton with us. Weather is really nice today. We will play.)

"Tum pack karo jo karna hai. Main ek baar Laraib bhabhi se puch loon agar unhe kuch chahiye. Unhone toh nashta bhi nahi kiya." Hyra zipped up her handbag and told her, she was about to get up from bed and leave.

(Take whatever you wanna pack. I am gonna check on Laraib bhabhi if she needs anything. she didn't even eat breakfast .)

"Uffo, kar lengi woh nashta, Dawar bhai haina unka khayal rakhne ke liye." But Uswa stopped her.

(She will eat. Dawar bhai is there to take care of her.)

Hyra once again sat down comfortably, when Sami entered their room, sulking.

"Issey kya hua?" Hyra asked.

(What happened to him?)

"Sami, tum ab tak taiyyar nahi hue? Tumhari school van aney wali hai." Uswa scolded Sami.

(Sami, why haven't you changed into your uniform yet? Your school van must be coming to pick you.)

"Uswa, jale pe namak na dalo. Mujhe nahi jana school. Tum log waha farm house mein maze karoge aur main nancy maam ki boring class attend karunga. Yeh kaha ka insaf hai?" Sitting on the chair, Sami crossed his arms over his chest.

(Uswa, don't mock me. I don't want to go to school. You guys would enjoy in the farm house and I will be attending nancy maam's boring class. This is unfair.)

"Munh latkana band karo. Tumhare test shuru hone wale hain agle hafte se. Isliye tumhe koi leke nahi ja raha. Beta, sharafat se taiyyar ho jao issey pehle tumhari van ajaye." Sweetly, Uswa said.

(Don't sulk. Your exams are going to start soon. That's why we aren't taking you with us. Kid, go and get ready before your van comes.)

"Aye, zyada gundi banne ki zaroorat nahi." Sami scoffed.

(There is no need to be a thug.)

"Batau main tumhe gundi banke?" Pulling up her sleeves, Uswa stood up from her bed.

(I will tell you how I become thug.)

"Uswa! Kya kar rahi ho, bachha hai." Hyra stopped her.

(Uswa, what are you doing, he is a kid.)

"Yeh bachha? Itna koi..."

(He is a kid? He is a...)

"Uswa!" Hyra stopped her before she could say further.

"Sami, jao taiyyar ho, yaha sulk karne se kuch hasil nahi hoga. Mummy tumhe bilkul chutti nahi karne dengi." Hyra told Sami.

(Sami, go get ready, there is no point in sulking here, mummy won't let you skip school.)

Huffing, Sami stormed off from their room, mumbling angrily.

"Bohot nakhre hain iske, sab mummy ke extra laad pyar ka natija hai." Uswa mumbles.

(He is very stubborn, all because of mummy's extra love.)

"Achha woh chorho. Hum ja kiske sath rahe hain?" Hyra suddenly asked.
