..........................................................................
Days passed by and it was just a day for Mishal birthday. Shamsher was excited to meet his aapi and of course his janeman. He brought few gifts to her like suit, jewel and her fav books which he came to know through his aapi.
Karachi, Pakistan
It was around 6 in the morning and the family is getting ready for their travel. They are going by their private jet. Everyone are excited and one soul was nervous, excited and what not, he was just flying with excitement to meet his Jaan. He wanted to see her, hear her melodious voice and most importantly he wanted to express his wish to her and the families.
With all these thoughts he guided everyone to their flight, Mr and Mrs Khan, shamsher and ayaz along with their bodyguards boarded the flight. It was 7 when they departed from Karachi and by 8.40 they reached Lahore airport. It was 45 minutes distance from there to Ahmed's house. Ibu was already there waiting for them in a private space. His manager guided the khans towards Ibu and he welcomed them with a warm smile and did salam which they reciprocated . He took the blessings of elders and hugged his brothers in law.
They reached the Ahmed house which was elite and luxurious expressing the elegance of its own. The families exchanged greeting as Mr and Mrs Ahmed approached them. They asked the helpers to settled the luggage on their room and bodyguards were also guided to their rooms in outhouse.
Mr. Khan " kaise ho sab yahan, aap sabse milke kush huye.. "
Mr. Ahmed " Hum sab ache hai.. Hume bhi bohot kush hai ki aap sab aaye "
Mrs. Ahmed " Sher, ayaz aap dono kaise ho"
Ayaz " we r good aunty.. "
Sher " Uncle, aapi kahan hai "
Mrs. Ahmed " Mein bulata hu.. Voh dono muskan ki room pe hai "
Hearing her name, he left his breath stop, Mrs Ahmed called the trio down. He was talking to ibu about something when he felt his heart beating rapidly. He closed his eyes hearing soft laughing sounds, he could sense who is that.
Sunnyyyyyy
She is a tough nut to crack
I m not talking to you
Bas chipki re
He is the sun of my life
You are my strength and you are moving away
He saw a girl pulling him towards her and hugging him tight.
He opened his eyes with a jerk on seeing those eyes in his dream " Who is she, mein kyun uske baaremein sochraha hu.. Y does this visuals come to my mind whenever I think of muskan. Ya allah, ye sab kya horaha hai.. Jab mein muskan se pyaar karti hu toh aise kisi aur ladki ki kayal kyu aaraha hai "
His thoughts broken by her aapi who ran towards him excited. He stood up and hugged her to his dearest.
Sher " happy birthday to you aapi, just keep smiling like this always.. Love you so much and I miss you alot.. Ek baat yaad rakna, kuch bhi ho mein hamesha aapki saath hu"
Mishal looked at him with teary eyes and nodded..
Mishal "thank you Sher.. Love you too.. "
She then greeted her parents and talked with them for a while. He hugged his second sister and talk with her for a while. The thing he didn't miss noticing was his sisters teasing look towards him and muskan who was wearing his favorite color red and standing beside them with her head down smiling.
He felt his heart skip for a moment, he stood at a decent distance between them.
Sher " salamalaikum Muskan "
He said in his low tone and her heart stopped beating and she gasp for breath. He smiled seeing his effect on her.
Muskan " wal.. Walaaikumaslam Shamsher"
It was his time to zone out, her sweet voice and the way his name roll out of her tongue, he never thought he would just stay still by mere mention of his name. This is it, he realized he is gone for good.
Sher " Laal kapde mein bohot ache lagrahe ho "
He said and turned to walk away whereas she was still, repeating his words in her mind. She turned around, closed her eyes and kept her hands on her heart..
Aise laal kapde pehenke mere samne kadi hai , samaj nahi aaraha kya karun..
She couldn't see the face but this voice ,she can never forget it. But he didn't say it to her before ,then y she is getting such visuals as it happened before.
" Muskannnn " her ammi called her breaking her trance, she went towards kitchen.
They arranged for breakfast and called everyone. Everyone settled for breakfast, Muskan and her second bhabhi served everyone.
Mrs. Khan " beta tum dono beito, we will serve ourselves "
They reluctantly nodded and Mrs. Ibu settled beside him and there was only one seat left for Muskan which was beside Sher.
Muskan stood fidgeting with her dress, mishal understood her hesitation and pulled her to sit between her and Sher.
Mishal " don't feel shy. My brother won't eat you " ( she whispered in her ears making her blush)
Muskan " bhabhi plss "
She whispered back and they settled for breakfast. Everyone are busy in having chitchat and eating whereas two souls were just living in that moment.
Sher " Aap khaa kyu nahi rahe... Meine toh suna aap foodie hai "
They were talking in hush tone..
Muskan " Voh.. Voh.. Ek minute... Apne hume foodie kaha "
Sher " jii haan kaha.. Sach haina "
Muskan " how mean "
She turned her face to other side and he chuckled.
Sher took the chicken curry and placed in her plate beside her parata.
Sher " kao muskan, I need you to be healthy to handle me in future "
He whispered in her ears looking at his surroundings carefully and she was taken aback by his words. She blushed to the deep red and he loved everything about her.
Then they all left for nearby ashram to give donation... The men also visited the masjid for their afternoon prayer. He closed his eyes and think about everything happening in his life
" Yah allah, I don't know what's happening to me. I know one thing for sure, muskan meri hai, meri zindagi hai, I don't want to lose her at any cost. With her beside me, I feel the most happiest person and I feel she is the one for me. Mein aapse dua maangrahe hu, pls mujhe meri muskan chahiye. Bohot chahta hu use, I m going to talk to her about my feelings and then to our family. Aap saath dede humara.. "
He opened his eyes and walked around masjid seeking the positivity radiating.
There was a old person who was reciting dua keeping his Quran infront of him. There were few ppl seated before him listening to his recitation. Sher also settled beside them for sometime to listen him. Kaka (oldman) opened his eyes suddenly and he saw Sher. He gestured Sher to come to him and Sher followed him.
Kaka " Kaise Ho tum beta "
Sher " salamalaikum kaka, theek hu , aap kaise he "
Kaka " achi hu.. waqt agaya beta... Tera maqsat poora honewale hai... Jiskeliye tujhe allah ne janam di voh honewale hai.. Pyaar ki nishani hai tum dono, bas iss janam mein nahi, agle joh bhi hai tum dono ek dusre keliye bani ho, Tera hi hai voh, zyada sochna mat.. Allah tera saath hai "
He recite some dua and blew it on his face making him close his eyes in peace.
Kaka continued his recitation and Sher walked back to his family. He was at peace now, he was confused before about his decision on muskan and his dream girl but now he knew he is born for Muskan.
Everyone reached their home around 2 in the afternoon and had their lunch. Mrs. Ahmed handover the gifts to everyone and she also gave muskan her gifts to which she thanked her and took blessings. They arranged a home party for Mishal, muskan phupa and phupi going to come with their annoying son Shoiab.
Muskan was with her bhabhi when Sher entered after getting permission. He looked down as he saw her without hijab, she immediately wore her hijab and Mishal smiled at them.
Mishal " Kuch chahiye Sher "
Sher " voh aapi, I bought some gifts for...for.. Everyone.. This was left.. So thought of giving it "
Mishal understood and she smirked
" mereliye gifts.. Awww.. Thank you Sher"
Sher looked at her with murdering looks
" Aapi apkeliye to ammi ne diya na.. This is for.. U know.. Ab mein jaaraha hu "
He ran from there and Mishal laughed, slowly placing the gifts on muskan lap as she was sitting.
Mishal " kholo, dheke bolo kaise lagi "
She opened the gifts with trembling hands and there was a beautiful lehenga simple yet elegant with little stone studded black in color, then matching eaaring and bangles to that. There was another pack which had her favourite books.
She smiled at her gifts and traced the fabric of her lehenga which was soft and just the way she wanted.
Mishal smiled at her sister in law and cupped her cheeks.
Mishal " Aise hi muskrat rahe aap muskan.. Sher aapko bohot chahta hai, aap bhi karti ho na "
Muskan nodded slowly and mishal kissed her forehead.
Mishal " Get ready soon.. I will also go n get ready "
Muskan nodded and left to her room.
Muskan thoughts " Ye phenu.. But what if ammi found this is new. Par unone pyaarse diya hai, nahi phene toh bura lagega..muskan, that's the last thing u want now.. Bohot kubsurat hai, phenlo, dheklenge baat mein "
She got ready in her lehenga, did minimal makeup and tied her hijab. She went to her bhabhi room who was getting ready in a golden suit looking extremely beautiful.
Muskan " Masha Allah bhabhi, u r soo beautiful "
Mishal " aapko dheka apne.. U r looking like a noor muskan "
She said in the same excitement as muskan, they r joined by muskan second bhabhi.
Mrs. Ibu " Ahem ahem.. Someone is looking extra pretty today... Anything spl.. Is it the charm of my dear sherrrrr "
Muskan blushed " bhabhiiii " and the duo laughed at her.. They went down soon and everyone were stunned to see the ladies of Ahmed. Muskan could feel the gaze of someone whom she know very well.
She raised her eyelids and look into the direction only to find his intense gaze on her. It seems like he forgot that he is among the family and friends.
Mishal cut the cake and they enjoyed the evening. Muskan felt someone staring at her and this is not her Sher, she was feeling disgusted. She walked away and sense someone following her. She immediately turned to see who it was, to her dismay there was no one. She walked towards the kitchen to have some water. When she turned to leave, she saw her cousin standing there. She never liked him and his looks on her make her disgusted.
Muskan " Hatiye Shoaib bhai "
She tried walking but he block her way.
Shoaib " bohot khubsurat lagrahe ho muskan.. I think time agaya hai tume apna banane ka.. "
He smirked evilly and she felt her heart crunch with his words. No, she can never be his. She belong to her Sher. No one can separate them.
Muskan closed her eyes and her fist tightened " Bakwas band kariye aap.. Hatiye raste se "
He stood there and looked at her keenly making her want to disappear somewhere.
She closed her eyes and suddenly a name came in her mind " Sunnyyyy "
Sher was doing some work when he felt someone calling him. He could sense a uncomfortable feeling arising. He immediately looked around for muskan who was missing, he searched for her and moved to kitchen. What he saw made his blood boiled, he went towards shoaib who was towering over muskan but at a safer distance. He pulled him apart and stood in front of her. She inhaled his scent and heaved a sigh of relief.
Muskan " Shamsherrr "
He looked into her for once, after confirming that she is alright he pushed shoaib back.
Sher " What r u doing here shoaib, y r u talking to her. Can't u see she is uncomfortable, just leave "
Shoaib " Shamsher bhai I was just talking to her. Y r u getting angry. U don't need to worry about us. Honewali biwi hai meri "
Sher anger was on peak " kya bola tune..dont make me to break ur bones. Jao yahan se "
He said in his low intimidating voice and shoaib left fear striken.
Sher turned to her and step back. She was missing his warmth as soon as he did that and pouted unknowingly which made him smile.
Sher " aap yahan kya kar rahe thi "
Muskan " pani peene aayi this and he suddenly came "
Sher " muskan " he called her dreamily and she closed her eyes " haan ji "
Sher "u r looking so beautiful.. Man kar raha hai, apko hamesha mere paas raklu.. Aap noor ho muskan. Kya aap mujhe ye mauka denge, will u give me chance to make our lives better. Mein aap se bohot mohabbat karta hu, mein apko wada karta hu, aap hi ho Joh mere zindagi mein phele aur aakri ladki hai.. Mein apko hamesha kush rakunga, aap hamari banogi muskan.. Will you marry me "
She was shivering with the intensity in his voice.
These 12 weeks are the best days of my life this intense, this madness, this craziness, I never felt like this before. Mujhe nahi pata ek ladki meri zindagi mein itna sari difference laa sakte hai.. So this one is for you and I need a yes..
With that he knelt down and she kissed his cheeks.
Sher " muskannn "
He called her breaking her trance. She looked into his eyes for the very first time this closely and Masha Allah his eyes were so beautiful and it showed all his emotions he have for her. She believe in him and her allah.
She nodded meekly and ran away. He ruffled his hairs blushing came outside. The party was over by 9 pm and they all settled in the living room having dessert.
Phupo " bhai (to Mr. Ahmed) mein aapse kuch baat karna chahta hu.. Shoaib and muskan ki baremein. Mein chahta hu muskan humari ghar ki bahu bane.. Shoaib Bhi bohot chahta hai usse "
Listening this everyone were shocked especially the two souls who were dreaming to spend their life together. Shoaib had a evil smirk on his face looking at them. Before anyone could speak, Shah Ahmed stood up and went to Muskan, holding her by shoulder.
Shah " phupo, aapko pata bhi hai aap kya bolrahe hai. Muskan iss ghar ki pari hai.. Aapko lagta hai hum iss pari ko aapki bete ko denge Joh ek number ki bewakoof insaan hai "
Phupo " zuban sambalke baat karna Shah "
Shah " sach kadwa hota hai. Listen to me carefully, we r not interested in this proposal.. Aap ayinda iske baaremein baat mat kariye "
Mr. Ahmed " I m sorry we're not interested in this proposal. We already fixed her alliance with someone else. "
Few had smile on their face and few were still rooted on their place.
phupo " kiske saath "
Shah " abbu ek minute. Mr. Shamsher Khan, kuch bolna chahenge aap "
He asked Sher who looked at him. He needs to open up and stand for his love, or else she will be someone else wife.
Sher ' uncle, aunty, mein baat karne wali thi iss baremein.. Mein muskan se nikkah karna chahta hu, usko apna banana chahta hu.. Jabse usse dheka voh meri bangaye.. Aap pls samajlijiye, hume saath hone dijiye"
He said in a firm tone making everyone smile. Mishal smiled and touched his cheeks.
Mr. Khan " nalayak, abhi bolraha tu ye sab "
Sher " sorry, der kardiya, but please understand. I can't live without her and she won't be happy with anyone else "
Mrs Ahmed came forward and blow on his face after reciting dua " fikar mat karo Sher beta. Muskan aapki hai.. Tum dono ka hi nikah fix hogaye hai "
A full blown smile broke their lips and Shah look at his sister who was glowing with happiness. He very well know about feeling, their little interactions and staring session. Beside his wife mishal fill him with needed details, making him to talk to their parents about their wedding.
Muskan ran to her room as everyone exchanged their congratulations. Phupo and the family left in anger. She kept her hand on her heart and looked at herself in the mirror.
She received a msg on her phone , opened it to see a text from his number..
" Ms. Muskan Ahmed, To be
Mrs. Muskan Shamsher Khan "
She cried in happiness and immediately starting praying to express her gratitude to her Allah for making this happen.
She could see her self in a cute peach dress and there is someone standing beside her..
" She is the best daughter, best girlfriend and hopefully a best daughter in law soon.
Tejasswi kundraa keliye zor dha taliyan "
She opened her eyes confused "Ye Tejasswi kundrra kon hai.. Y does she look like me"
In living room,
Sher was blushing as everyone were teasing him.
Ibu " we also know that the dress she wore today was gifted by you "
Sher " arey yaar.. Lassi mat karo mera plz "
He blushed and shah took his hands in his
Shah " Sher, I know u will take care of her well.. Phir bhi bolraha hu, abse voh Teri zimmedari hai.. Yaad rakna, we 4 brothers won't leave you if u make her cry "
Sher " jiju don't worry, Agar voh royegi to toofan aajayega, mein aise hone nahi dunga "
He felt similar to those words which left his mouth and he chuckled at that moment.
It was later at night when everyone slept, but these two were restless. Their nikkah was fixed a month later and sher will go back to Karachi with his family tomorrow. They will meet on the day of nikkah as they planned for ruksati on same day.
Muskan walked to her terrace and she looked at the moon which was shining on its glory. She felt someone behind her and without her knowledge she whispered
" sunny " , unfortunately he didn't heard. He inhaled her fragrance and step back.
Sher " I m leaving tomorrow muskan "
Muskan " apna kayal rakna.. "
Sher " zaroor, aap bhi.. Have this on mind. Aap jaan ho meri, pls take care of urself "
She nodded and ran to her room.
Sher smiled " Laddoo kahi ki "
He looked the moon and smiled.
The next day they left for Karachi and both the families got busy in wedding preparations
