He entered the study and found his oldest brother sitting on the desk he was now sure that he was in trouble just like old times.

"Apne bulaya bhaiya?" He settled on the chair and asked.

Haroon sighed and decided to ask first his younger brother was not a kid anymore he was a father of 15 year old boy he doesn't needs to be chided like a child but the older brother in him couldn't stop from putting some sense in to him.

"You won't be mind me overstepping will you? Because if you do phele batado I won't." Haroon stated clearly.

The already annoyed Harib rolled his eyes the same way his son did few minutes earlier which made Haroon's blood boil.

"Apko ache se pata ha is baat ka jawab boliye jo bolna ha suna de ap bhi mujhe." He replied almost sulked.

"Keep that tone in check Hatim." Haroon's words were so sharp and Hatim actually resisted the urge to gulp.

"Mera wo matlab nahi tha bhaiya ofcourse you can say anything ap ko pata haq ha apka. Infact I actually need some advice this time around meri samajh se sab bhar horaha ha." Hatim replied.

"What is the issue Hatim? Ye sab sirf isliye ha because she thinks you are spoiling Haadi?" Haroon asked.

"I don't know bhaiya! Mujhe samajh nahi araha she wants me to behave strict and I can not." Hatim stated.

"She doesn't want you to behave strict Hatim! Wo ye nahi chahrahi ke tum har waqt chalte phirte usse danto but she wants him to fear his father jab wo koi galat kaam krne ka soocha to usko pata ha ghar ke uske baba hai jinhe uski ye baat nahi pasand ayegi." Haroon replied.

"Bhaiya wo kuch galat karta hi nahi hai." Hatim countered.

"Aisa tumhe lagta ha Hatim! Aisa ha nahi tumne nazia ko kyu nahi batai ke jab woh yahn nahi thi to Haadi or Hamza driving krne nikle the? Tumne use bataya wo Rafay ki birthday party me sneak out krke gaya tha? Ya tumne use ye bataya ke gali ke larko se maar peet hogai thi uski?" Haroon replied.

"Apko kese pata yeh?" Hatim asked shocked.

"Mere bete mujhe sab batate hai Hatim! Hamza ko raat ko neend nahi ati jab tak wo apne baba ko ake sab bata nahi deta they know that they can't hide things from their parents." Haroon snapped.

"Kia matlab ha apki is baat ka? Mera beta mujhse kuch nhi chuapata!" Hatim was now angry.

"I am not implying that Hatim! Agar wo chupata bhi ha to its fine wo 15 saal ka hai ghar ka sabsa chota ha zahir ha wo apne baba ko akar nahi batega usne kia kia ha similarly Zaira bhi nahi bataygi and that is what I want you to understand Haadi abhi bhot chota hai." Haroon cut him firmly.

"Yahi to baat ha bhaiya wo abhi chota ha me kese dantu usko? I want to be a god cop Nazia enough ha use daante ke liye." Hatim replied.

"Nazia ka danta doesn't work Hatim because you don't back her Rabia ne khabhi hamre bacho ko kuch nahi bola leken she always backed me always supported me agar mene koi punishment dish out kia ha toh she made sure ke bache wo punishment puri kare parenting is not all black and white ek ne daanta dusre ne piyar kia it doesn't work that way! Ek agar daant raha to dusra atleast usko back to kare." Haroon gentled his tone as he saw the apprehension on his brother's face.

"Wo Harib se darta ha Haider se darta hai leken wo apne baba se nahi darta and this is wrong Hatim abhi tumhari ankhon ke samne wo eye roll krke gaya tumhe ya mujhme itni himmat hoti thi ke hum abu samne aise krsake? Yaad ha tumne jab ami se batameezi ki thi ek bar abu ne kese punish kia tha tumhe?" Haroon continued.

"He is teenager Hatim abhi jo uski age ek bura dost and he will continue on the path none of us want Hatim! Aaj kal to dost banane ke liye ghar se bhi nahi nikalna parta online bache bigar jate he needs proper guidance Hatim." He gently concluded.
