Emanet

|Epilogue|:

"Really Phoenix, you're still shy of me."

He pointed at her protruding belly which earned him a horrified gasp from Safa. Slapping his thigh, she chided

"Besharam."
(Shameless)

A laugh poured out of him before he fed her the ice cream. She happily ate half of the pint before her taste buds had enough of the sweet dish. He closed the lid of the pint and put it back inside the freezer. This time at the front, so his wife won't cry after. Turning towards her, he carried her bridal style in his arms. She shrieked before letting her head fall on his chest. As he climbed the stairs, he felt a kiss on his cheek before he felt her lips trailing down to his jaw. Giving her a fake angry look, he teased

"Aren't you a naughty minx."

She only shrugged before going back to lay her head on his chest. He opened the door to their room and closed it with his foot before putting his wife back on the bed. She adjusted her pillows before making herself comfortable. He laid down beside her and held her hand.

"What do you think it's going to be? Girls or boys?" She whispered while drawing circles on his chest. He shrugged.

"I really don't care about the gender. But I'll love to have a mini Safa running around." He placed a kiss on her nose making her laugh lightly.

"I want to have a boy." She admitted. He shrugged yet again. They didn't find the gender yet. Wanting to be surprised.

"Whatever gender they are going to be, I'll love them so much."

Subhan said before nuzzling in her neck. A shiver went down her spine and she clutched his shirt tightly. But nothing happened for a few minutes. Frowning, she glanced at him only to find him sleeping soundly. Smiling, she caressed his hair before muttering

"Sleep all you want. Once your twins come, you'll be up all night."

She threw one leg over his waist before surrendering to sleep too.

"Calm down. Everything will be fine."

Subhan's pacing was once again halted by his mother. He nodded his head at her before resuming pacing back and forth. Narmeen sighed at her son before taking a seat on one of the chairs. Opposite to her, sat Rafiqa, reciting Surah e Marium who flew in that afternoon.

Safa was admitted to hospital last night, so everyone was here worried for her and the twins safety. Subhan slumped down on a chair. Glancing at his watch, he voiced out

"Why hasn't the doctor come out?"

His question was answered soon as the doctor finally came out. A huge smile was on her face as she announced.

"Congratulations. It's a boy and a girl."

Series of thank yous to his Lord left his lips before he was embraced in a hug from his mother.

"Mubarak hu bete."
(Congratulations my son)

He pulled back with a huge smile on his face. Rafiqa ran a motherly hand on his head before he asked the doctor

"Can we see her?"

He was taken inside the room where he saw his wife's figure perched up on the bed with a wide smile plastered on her lips. He walked to her and placed a tender kiss on her forehead. She smiled bashfully at him and muttered

"Both of our wishes came true." A laugh escaped his lips before he went into husband mode.

"Are you fine? Are you feeling any pain?"
