Gul e sana is currently sitting in a Royal room, to be specific, in her husband's room. After reaching the palace, her mother-in-law warmly welcomed her.
Ammi: sana beta, ye aap k shohar ka kamra hai. Aur aaj se ye aap ka bhi kamra hai. Abhi wo naraj hai kyun ki unke saath dhoka kiya hai aap k puri parivaar ne. Issliye shayed wo aap k saath acche se baat nahi karenge. Par aap unki kahi hui baato ka bura maat manna! Thik hai?
Sana nodded a little.
Ammi: accha Sidharth hume ammi jaan kehte hai. Aap hume kya kahengi?
Sana: umm jo aap bolein.
Ammi: aap hume ammi kahengi toh hume accha laage gaa!
Sana's eyes were filled with tears. For the first time someone was wishing to hear ammi from her mouth. She slowly whispered..
Sana: aa ...ammi...
Zahanara begum hugged her and kissed her forehead!
Ammi: humara pyaara baccha! Kuch bhi chahiye hoga toh hume baata dijiyegaa! Aur kal se hum aap k liye ek khaas dasi ka intejaam kar denge. Aab aap aram kijiye! Hmm?
Sana; jee ammi!
After zahanara begum left, sana was looking at the moon through the window. Her face was still covered as ammi told her that her husband will see her face and give her a gift . But will he do that? Maybe not! Should she change?
She sighed and got up to take her clothes but before she could do that, she felt his presence. Her husband has entered in the room and glanched her once. He didn't know why his heart wanted to see his bride's face, for once! His mind scolded his heart and he took a simple kurta to change and was about to go to the bath area which is beside the royal bedroom.
But her soft voice stopped him.
Sana: Assalamualaikum.
He nodded and then said in his deep voice...
Sid:
Aap ko paata hai ki aap k baba sa aur behan ne humare saath dhoka kiya hai. Aur hume dhokebaaz bilkul nahi pasand.
Fir bhi hum ne humari ammi k khatir nikah ki hai. Aap iss mehel mein humari ammi ki bahu baan k , puri ijjat k saath reh saakti hai par aap humari begum banne ki ummed maat rakhna!
Sana: Jis waaqt se apne hume qabool ki hai, hum aap ki begum baan chuke hai. Aap k manne ya na manne se ye saach nahi badal jayega ki hum aap ki begum hai.
She replied softly. He was a little amazed as nobody ever replied him like this.
Sid: aap ko paata hai na aap kisse baat kar rahi hai? Humari baat ka aise jawaab koi nahi deta! Hum yaha k raja hai. Humari baat ka maan sab rakhte hai. Fir apne jawaab dene ki gusthaki kaise ki?
Sana : hume paata hai ki aap raja hai, aap ki baat ka maan sab rakhte hai aur hum bhi aap ki baato ki ijjat hamesha karenge! Par iss waaqt hum apne shohar se baat kar rahe hai, kisi raja se nahi. Aur apne shohar k samne apni baat rakhna koi gusthaki nahi hota!
Sid: aap k khandan ne jo kiya hai uske baad aap itni jubaan kaise chala rahi hai! Aap ko toh sharam aani chahiye. Aap ek dhoka k waja se iss mehel mein hai. Yaad hai na aap ko?
Sana:
jee bilkul yaad hai ! Hume paata hai ki humara nikah ek dhoke ka sawada tha, jis khandan se hume kabhi mohabbat toh dur ki baat hai, ijjat naseeb nahi hua, uss khandan ki ijjat bachane k liye humne ye nikah ki hai. Aur apne bhi khud ki ijjat bachane k liye humse nikah ki hai. Aap raja hai , aap ki marji na hoti toh kisi ki himmat nahi thi ye nikah karwane ka! Humne aap pe jabardaasti nahi ki. Jab humara naam liya gya apne hume qabool kiya hai apne begum k roop mein. Fir hume sharam kyun aana chahiye? Humne aap k saath dhoka nahi kiya! Humara jubaan kyun nahi chalna chahiye? Humne koi gunah nahi Kiya!
Ye nikah apne apni ammi ki khushi k liye ki hai aur humne apne baba k ijjat k liye! Agar aap ne ek bete ka farz nibhaya hai toh humne ek beti ka nibhaya hai. Agar aap galat nahi hai toh hum kaise galat ho saakte hai ?
He didn't want to admit but his heart was already impressed! She is such a soft yet fierce girl. Really different!
Sid: humare pas ye fazool ki baate karne ka waaqt nahi hai. Aaj aap nayi hai issliye aap yaha so saakti hai. Kal se aap k liye hum dusre kamre ka intejaam kar denge. Kyun ki hume apne kamre mein akele rehna Pasand hai!
She rolled her eyes though he couldn't notice it because of her covered face.
Sana: hum purani ho jaye fir bhi hum iss kamre mein hi soyenge! Kyun ki nikah k baad shohar aur begum ek kamre mein hi rehte hai.
Sid glared at her...
Sid: ye maat bhuliye ki hum raja hai. Hum bohot baar nikah kar saakte hai , bohot begum ho saakte hai humare, kisi k saath bhi hum reh saakte hai, kisi ko bhi apne kamre mein rakh saakte hai, kisi k saath bhi raat guzaar saakte hai, taab kya karengi aap? Taab toh aap ko dusre kamre mein jaana hi parega na?
He didn't mean all this, he was not interested to remarry. Marriage is nothing but a responsibility for him which he did for his ammi's happiness but he didn't know why he was loving her brave answers and wanted to hear her reaction in this remarriage thing.
Sana: Aap kar lein jitni dafa aap ko nikah karni hai. Raat guzaar Lein kisi k bhi saath par hum iss kamre se nahi jaa rahe hai. Aap ko jo karna hai aap kar lein .
Saying that she took her clothes and was about to go to the bath area but he said...
Sid: hum pehle jayenge!
Sana: hum jaa rahe hai! Aap intejaar kar lijiye.
Sid: hum kisi ka intejaar nahi karte. Hume iski adaat nahi hai!
Sana: toh adaat daal lein.
Saying that she left while he stood there being completely shocked. For the first time in his life , someone made him speechless.
He sat in his bed grumpily while she changed her clothes. Then she started playing with water. Here he was waiting for her to come outside , so that he can change but she wasn't coming out. Being frustrated, he entered in the bath area and saw that she was playing with water! Her back was facing him.
Sid: ye kya kar rahi hai aap?
She gasped because of his loud voice , she lost her balance and was about to fall but he held her protectively in his arms!
She closed her eyes tightly in fear while his heart started beating fast after seeing her beautiful face.
She was indeed a hoor, maybe the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. In her simple clothes, no makeup, no ornament, still so beautiful! She opened her eyes slowly and for the first time she saw her husband properly. He was looking at her ...her eyes, damn! They were full of innocence and prettiest pair of eyes, he was losing his senses.
His hold on her waist became tight unintentionally and he felt that he is touching rose petels. She was so soft, so serene!
She broke the eyelock and he hated that. He wanted to look at those eyes until his heart gets satisfied.
She looked here and there, his touch and intense gaze was making her shiver....
Sana: umm ....chorein!
She softly said....he came back in his senses and made her stand up!
He quickly turned and she ran from there! He didn't understand why he was looking at her like that! What had happened to him?
With a frustrated Breath, he washed his face and mentally reminded himself that this marriage means nothing to him.
On the other hand, she sat in the bed, her breaths were still uneven. She quickly covered herself in the quilt, wished her moon good night and slept.
After taking a long shower, his nerves were calm now. But her pretty face, those beautiful eyes were roaming in his mind. After changing his clothes , he came outiside and sat on the big sofa! He won't sleep with her, he reminded himself.
Though the bed had lot of space , still he wanted to stay away from her for his own sanity.
His heart wanted to look at her face once, though he tried to control his heart but he wasn't able to do that. So he looked at her. Her face was glowing because of the moon's light.
Her hair was flying because of the cold air. He was admiring her! After sometime she turned to the other side and he came back in his senses. What was he doing?
He is behaving like a mad! He needs to stay away from this girl! He scolded himself and laid on the big couch. He closed his eyes but her face was coming infront of his eyes again and again making him frustrated.
After a lot of efforts, he finally slept !
