Precious ~ Last

"Yeh ek din mein aap mein itne changes kaha se agaye?" Zaroon has left the kitchen and behind him was Sadia, who now couldn't hide her curiosity

(How did you changed over a night?)

"Kyuki iss ek din mein Maine woh kiya Jo tum Roz karti ho toh ehsas hua kitna mushkil hota Hai yeh sab. main jo puchta Tha ki tum karti Kya ho din bhar Ghar mein ab maloom hua sara kaam toh tumhi karti ho." Zaroon turned to her and started saying

(Because for one day I did what you do everyday and I realized how difficult it is. I always used to ask what you did all day now got to know you do everything.)

"You know client ke liye project banana easy Hai par bachho ko feed Karna nahi. Pata nahi tum kaise manage karti ho, so I have made my mind, the least I could do is help you." Zaroon said, as he went to coffee table to clean it

(It is easier to make project for clients than to feed kids, I don't know how you manage.)

"Apko ehsas hua bohot Hai, par aap rehne dijiye kyuki apko adat nahi Hai." Sadia stopped him

(You have realized it, it's enough, but you really don't have to do this because you are not habitual of it.)

"Toh adat bana lunga main. Tum waise bhi thakk jati ho." Zaroon shrugged his shoulder

(I'll make myself habitual of it, you must get tired alot.)

"Zaroon, yeh Ghar ke kaam karna ya bachho ko sambhalna mujhe nahi thakate."

(I don't get tired from household work.)

"Mujhe jo taqleef deta Hai woh yeh Hai ki itna sab kuch karne ke baad bhi humse yeh pucha jata Hai ki tumne kiya Kya Hai, housewife Hona asan hota hai. Housewife Hai job nahi karti unki Zindagi Aram Hai. Aram kisi ki Zindagi nahi Hai, aap Jo Kam karte Hain that is appreciated by everyone because you earn, hum Jo karte Hain unhe koi notice bhi nahi karta halaki hum housewife ke beena apki Zindagi nahi chal sakti, accept it."

(What hurts me is that even after doing everything we are being asked what we do all day? Being housewife is easier, she is a housewife she doesn't work although we both do work, your work is appreciated because you earn but our efforts are being neglected, although you can't manage a day without us, accept it.)

"I accept it, tumhara beena main kuch nahi," Zaroon bowed his head in front of her and said, which made her laugh

(I'm nothing without you.)

"Is ek din mein mujhe tumhari Kadar maloom hui, Sadia. Waise pehle bhi maloom thi, par ab samajh mein aya ki tum kitna sab kuch karti ho mere liye aur mere Ghar ke liye. Aur badle mein main kuch bhi nahi karta." Seeing her laugh, brought smile to his face, as he said

(Being one day away from you made me realize your worth, I always knew your worth but was careless,)

"I love you, Sadia. You are the most precious person in my life and I don't wanna lose you." Holding her shoulders, Zaroon confessed

"I love you too... Lekin yeh.. ab saaf karde, bachho ko bhook lagi hogi." Sadia's eyes glister in tears as she looked down and slowly said, later to hide her blush, she quickly turned other side and started doing cleaning of the lounge

(Now... Let's clean this because kids must be hungry.)

"Don't worry when papa is here, Maine bachho ko chips aur chocolate de di Hai." Zaroon proudly point at himself and told her

(I have gave kids chocolate and chips.)

"Subah subah chips aur chocolate?" Sadia gasped and quickly turned to Zaroon
