(Let the drip complete,)

He sat down on a chair beside bed and patiently waited for her to get in conscious

Few moments later he saw her moving a little then opening her eyes

The first thing she saw was Fasih,

"Are you okay?" He quickly got up from chair and went to her

"What...... What happened?" She looked around her surrounding and her hand which was attached to the drip

"Your car met with an accident, how are you feeling now,...... Careful," when she tried to get up he hodl her and said

"Why do you care?" She pushed his hand away from herself

"Tumhe toh afsos ho raha hoga ki main Mari nahi." Looking at other side she said

(You must be sad that I didn't died,)

"Sab tumhari tarah nahi Hai." Fasih minded her behavior and said,

(Not everyone is like you,)

<><><>

"I won't sit on wheelchair," once again Hayfa said, Dr suggested her to use wheelchair and she didn't wanted to

"Hayfa please! You are not in the state of walking," Fasih tried to convince her

"Ispe main aur lachar feel krungi, I can use stcik but not wheelchair."

(I'll feel helpless on wheelchair.)

"But filhal apke liye wheelchair best option rahega, walking can harm the injury more," Dr. Said

(But wheelchair is the best option for you.)

"Hayfa baith jao," Fasih sternly said giving her no other option

(Sit down,)

Sulking she sat on the wheelchair, Fasih pushed it and took her out from hospital but the real problem start when he had to make her sit in the car

Fasih looked around and saw two nurses coming out from hospital, he went to them

"Can you please help her to sit in the car?" He asked them which they agreed.

"Hayfa! Yeh Kya.... Kaise hua?" Hanaya who was in living room with Nimra saw Fasih pushing the wheelchair on which Hayfa was

(This?.... What happened?)

She went to then and asked Hayfa,

"Pareshan hone ki zaroorat nahi hai bas chota sa accident Tha." Hayfa replied her

(No need to get worried, it was just a small accident.)

"Pareshan na ho? Tum wheelchair par ho, Fasih kaise hua yeh sab?" Nimra asked

(No need to get worried? You are on wheelchair, Fasih what happened?)

"Mummy waqai mein Chota sa accident Tha bas pair pe chot zyada lag gayi hai, thorhe dino ke liye wheelchair use karna Hai," Fasih replied her

(Mummy it was really a small accident, her feet got injured that's why Dr. Suggested wheelchair for few days.)

"I think we shouldn't bother her and let her rest," Nimra said

Hanaya step forward to take wheelchair handle from him, he left her and went to relax on sofa

Hanaya pushed her wheelchair but when they reached stairs Hanaya looked at Nimra who understood wheelchair can't go up

"Hayfa jab Tak tumhari tabiyat theek nahi ho jati tum humare kamre mein shift ho jao, tab Tak main aur tumhare Taya Abbu uppar wale room mein shift ho jayenge," only one bedroom was available on 1st floor which was occupied by Shahid Hussain and Nimra

(Hayfa until you are on wheelchair, you can shift into my room while me and your Taya Abbu will shift upstairs,)

"Bilkul bhi nahi mummy, aap aur papa niche wale kamre mein hi rahiye, papa ki tabiyat waise hi theek nahi Hai," Fasih who heard it went to them

(Absolutely no, papa is already now well, I don't want to bother you two.)

"Wheelchair uppar kaise jayega?" Hayfa was silently sitting, trying to suppress her anger

(How will wheelchair go upstairs?)

Fasih for a moment looked at his mother then at Hayfa, benting down he picked her up taking her by surprise, eyes winded she looked at Fasih, who didn't look at her and moved upstairs

From downstairs to their room her eyes was only on him, which he didn't bothered with

He placed her on bed

"Medicine time pe lelena aur kahi Jana ho toh maid ko bulane," he said and was about to leave

"Woh.... I want water," she called him when he reached doorway, again coming inside the room, he went to coffee table which was placed in the center of room and picked water jug from there, pouring water in glass he passed her,

(Actually!,......)

"Thank you," she thanked him and he left, she placed the glass on table and looked at the door from where he just left

A smile formed on her face when she realized how much her accident effect him

Fasih who wasn't talking to her is now taking care of her

This accident wasn't in her plan but this was surely helping her to gain softness from Fasih

"Hayfa!" a knock came from already opened door and Hanaya was standing on the other side

Hayfa's smile quickly wiped off, she nod her head, permitting Hanaya to enter the room

"Isko idha rakh dijiye," Hanaya said to the maid who was holding Hayfa's wheelchair

"Kaisi tabiyat Hai?" Hanaya asked her when maid left

(How are you now?)

"Theek Hoon, par tumhe Kya?" Hayfa raised her eyebrow and taunt making Hanaya embarrassed

(Fine, but why do you care?)

After the truth out Hanaya never tried to talk to Hayfa but how can she? When Hayfa and her have never been close enough to share their grief or happiness

After her pregnancy Hayfa also never tried to talk to her or even congrats her

"You should rest now, I won't disturb you," Hanaya said and left
