Aayat opened her eyes, Slowly got up rubbing her eyes, she looked at time and realised it was too late, it's almost 12 in the noon. She turned to look at her side, it was empty.
"Why didn't Eshal woke me up" She mumbled getting down from bed, and slipping her feet into her fluffy slippers and walked inside in the dressing to get ready for the day.
There was lot of buzz and hustle in the house, Everyone were running all around busy in some or other work, As Engagement going to take place today, all their closest relatives landed at their place.
Zaviyaar has specially assist them being the best organiser, he managed to do the Amazing decorations in the garden.
"Wow Zaviyaar it's very beautiful thanks a lot" Eshal said in graduate roaming eyes on the decor, then she walked upto him, who was leaning on the wall hands in his pocket
She wrapped her arms around his neck, taking him in hug, he got surprised, but never the less he patted her back slightly, Taking his hands out from pockets.
"Relax I'm not going to eat you boy" Eshal remarked moving back seeing him getting awkward
"Obviously you will eat your husband not me" Zaviaay replied with wicked smile Eshal looked at him being dumbfounded.
"Don't mind him he's just shy around girls" Saad told her as he side hugged her.
"Oh! shy and all, but he's not shy with Aayat any specific reason" Eshal remarked raising her eyebrows mischievously at him.
"Yeah that I thought the same" zahaan remarked teasingly folding his arms around his chest Zaviyaar shot him glare.
"Because I know her that's why, and even I'm not shy around Haram, Fariyal because I know them" Zaviyaar clarified and left slapping Zahaan head on which he whined, Eshal made a bad face hearing Haram's Name.

Aayat descend down, dressed in navy blue long print kurti, paired up with Capri plain Blue trouser, And wearing her plain blue dupata on her head, As she was praying, she's was looking absolutely gorgeous
She greeted the few guests politely, as they ware chatting in the living room, Some ladies were just admiring her, as they were finding a suitable and cultured girl.
"How's my beautiful Ami is today" Aayat asked her well-being sitting beside side hugging her
"I'm good, but why did you woke up so late? " Ayesha asked her cupping her cheek with one hand before Aayat could open her mouth she heard a lady speaking.
"This has become so common nowadays, these youngsters nowadays are too lazy even for one work, and Aayat has return from Australia so what can you expect from her" That women taunted her, with a fake smile who was grandpa's friend' daughter in law,
Aayat had heard a lot about her, she taunt a lot people, being jealous of them, she can't see others children doing better then her.
Aayat fumed she was about to answer her, when Ayesha hold her hand, and showed her eyes not to do anything.
"As you must know her brother is getting married so there was a lot of work, she was busy with that" Ayesha replied with a fake smile.
"But Aunty, your are right, I agree with you, I was just busy with preparations that's why I slept late, but I saw your daughter's post at 3 in that night, and as far I know she is from here only, and she was awake till late so yeah it's common nowadays" Aayat being herself replied her back politely, with a fake smile on her face, Giving it back to her without even disrespecting her.
While that lady just got embarrassed, and Ayesha looked at her proudly, they way she handled it.
Aayat got up and paced towards kitchen, she saw Jannat making something standing near the gas stove, And Zahaan was sitting on the slab munching An apple.
Aayat wrapped her arms around her stomach taking her in a back her, Jannat smiled.
"Finally my princess woke up" Jannat said lovingly moving her hand back to caress her cheek, Aayat nodded in yes placed her chin on her shoulder and tip toed to check what she's is making.
"Wow you woke up so early today cousin" Zahaan taunted her as usual taking the bite of apple
"Yeah even I felt that same" she answered him back forcing a Smile at him, he chuckled shaking his head.
"For whom you are making this halwa mama" Aayat asked her licking her lips eyeing the tempting sweet dish in-front of her.
"Isn't it obvious for bhai dumbo" zahaan replied rolling his eyes, Aayat removed her arms from Jannat as she has to move.
"Shut up duffer" She said throwing a spoon towards him making his giggle while Jannat was just smiling seeing them, She dished out the halwa in a two bowls.
"Here for you" She said filing the spoon to feed her, Aayat eat with her hand, And moaned relishing the taste.
Then she took the bowl from Jannat, and Jannat took the other bowl to feed his son, she went out from that kichen!
Aayat wanted to drink water as she eat the sweet dish and that too waking up, she took the water bottle which was placed on the slab.
She opened the cap, the placed the tip of bottle on her lips opening her mouth little, gulped the water.
"Woah, You and Bhai just kissed" Zahaan exclaimed loudly , making her chocked the water and it landed on his face he scrunched his nose.
"What?" Aayat screamed dumbfounded hearing him, and rubbed her heart.
"What the hell" Zahaan scowl seeing her action, he took the tissue roll and wiped his face.
"Think before speaking you idiot " Aayat scolded him slapping his arm.
"You just drink water from his bottle, placing your mouth on the same place, so it's a indirect kiss" He explained teasingly, her face turned scarlet as what she heard she looked at the bottle and realised it's his bottle which was empty now.
She open the tap to filled it back before he came back finding it, her eyes went to him, who was walking this way only, wearing a white shirt, showing off his bulged out muscles, paired up with black tight jeans, Rubbing his wet hair with his hand, he just took a bath.
"The water is overflowing" Zahaan said reminding her
"Huh?" Aayat uttered forgetting what she was doing, as she was totally lost in staring him.
"I said the water is overflowing" he repeated gesturing her to the bottle she looked down.
"Wallah" she yelled realising it, and turn off the tap quickly, Zahaan chuckled shaking his head and left winking as soon he saw Zaviyaar entering in the kitchen.
Seeing Him Aayat felt her heart beating faster then usual, She fiddled her fingers nervously, seeing him taking steps towards her.
She put the water bottle on the slab and about to run, As after accepting her liking for him she is not ready to face him, and the recent moments were making her face scarlet.
when she felt the tug on her dupata, it fall off from her head, she held it near her neck winding her eyes, but then she got relieved knowing Zaviyaar won't do anything like that, it must have been stuck somewhere.
She turned around to get surprised seeing him holding the edge of her dupatta, and starting at her, she felt shiver ran through her spine the way he was looking at her.
"Why are you running away from me Aayat?"Zaviyaar asked her taking slow steps towards her still holding her dupatta.
"Zavi please leave it," She pleaded him as she felt her heart beating louder he might hear it,
"Nope, first answer me why are you running away from me?" he repeated his question, as he saw her, how beautiful she was looking with that dupatta on her head, he was walking towards her seeing him she was ready to run, Even remembered she didn't came down last night too.
He watched her, she's is not even looking him looking downwards, hiding her right hand we behind her back.
"I...am..just.." She shutterd badly getting effected by his closeness, She moved back subconsciously and her back hit the Wall, she looked down realising she can't escape now.
Zaviyaar stand a feet away from her, he placed her dupatta back on her head, she looked up at him at his gesture, which touched her heart
He placed his right hand beside her head on the wall, she felt something churned in her stomach with his action, he moved his other hand towards her she widened her eyes When she felt his hand on her right hand which she was hiding behind her back.
He take her hand out slowly and hold it in-front of his eyes, and saw his name beautiful craved on her palm, he smiled Aayat just closed her being embarrassed, and shy.
"Because of this you were running away" He commented looking at her she opened her eyes.
"That designer did by mistake" She whispered telling him, as she thought he might feel bad.
"It's fine, it was not a big deal it's just a name why were you running away?" he asked her without realising he was still holding her hand, Aayat was thinking how to tell him it was not just a name for her.
"Umm, I didn't know how would you react so I was just hiding " she told him he chuckled at her.
"That's fine, now don't hide from me okay" He odered she just nodded her head, getting shy the way he was standing close to her.
"I..need to go" She whispered he realised he was standing very closed to her he moved back slowly and left her hand, Aayat without saying anything storm out from there.
She stopped in between she turned back to look at him and saw him still staring at her leaning on the wall, his arms folded near his chest, she winded her eyes and run from their without turning back.
Zaviyaar chuckled at her cute behaviour, He shook his head with a smile and took his water bottle moved towards terrace.
Aayat came in garden and saw the scenario, Everyone were stuffing food into Eshal's mouth so she doesn't feel hungry or low in the ceremony.
"Aayu is here finally" Eshal exclaimed running towards her, as she was not able to eat more, and they were not stopping.
"Why is your face flushed" Eshal asked seeing her red cheeks Aayat palmed her cheeks.
"is it showing that much?" She asked her worriedly thinking Zaviyaar must have seen it too she palmed her face being embarrassed
"Yeah but what happened" Eshal question seeing her behaviour then she winded her eyes acknowledging something.
"Oh my god did something happen tell me" Eshal exclaimed getting excited Aayat sighed and told her everything thing Eshal smile was growing each second but then she frowned
"Why the hell were you shying and getting nervous like old ladies , why didn't tell him they you like him" Eshal complained with frown, Aayat rolled her eyes and Placed the back of her hand in front of her eyes as the sun's rays were disturbing her.
"I'm not bold like you, I can't just go and confess my feeling to him, when he like some one else and i don't even know how will he react" Aayat told her being dejected, then she felt the rays are not on her anymore but someone's shadow , she lifted her head to look up and saw Zaviyaar standing staring at her place his both hand on railing bending a little protecting her, her heart fluttered.
Zaviyaar was helping the workers in setting up the lights, when he saw Aayat getting bothered by sun rays, so he just stand covering the sun with his back.
"They way he stare at you, i don't think he like someone else you might have misunderstood it Aayat" Eshal said looking at stare game going between them, Aayat got lost in thoughts.
"Why don't you go and ask him directly" Eshal advised her placing her hand on her waist
"What are you mad no way, so awkward" She instantly replied shaking her head in no
"Fine I'll ask him" Eshal said shrugging her shoulders casually marching towards him Aayat enlarged her eyes held her arm pulled her back and glared at her.
"Fine I'll talk to him after engagement okay" Aayat told her agreeing to her getting some confidence.
"That's better, now that's the Aayu i know" She commented winking at her, Aayat sniggered at her talks.
"Aayu Eshal, stop chatting you both, come here and eat something then you guys have to get ready" Barkat shouted for them Aayat nodded and Eshal made weird face hearing about eating again, Aayat chuckled.
"Come let's do your hospitality dear Bhabhi" She teased her best friend dragging her with herself.
