"And what if your assumptions are right?!
His words send diggers to Malika's heart, they were looking at his stern expression.
They all know he was telling the truth because he was never the man who hide when he does something.
Noor: Salaam thank you for coming today, I'm really great full.
Noor sent and the notification arrived right when the moment was heated. He took his phone and read the message, to others in the dining hall Asad's composure doesn't change, but to his mother and grandma who understand him knew Asad's face change, proving the woman they were talking about send him a message.
"You must be joking!" Zeenat laughed, it's her habit to made people feel uneasy and that was what she does to Malika, trying to made her angry not knowing it was true what she was assuming.
He stand and took his phone heading towards the door.
"Brother Asad you knew we can never have an ordinary woman as the daughter of this family. And if by any chance we're gonna accept her, you know your mother will never!" Aysher followed behind Asad as she said the words that made him halt.
He turned over his shoulder looking at his younger sister who looked worried and scared.
Is she scared for him? That's what he don't know!
They were giving him 'say something' look but as cool as he was he remained mute.
Silent, an uncomfortable one was all over the atmosphere of the dining hall.
Malika was looking at the plate in front of her, Aysher standing waiting for her brother to deny the thought on their head. While Zeenat narrowed her eyes thinking of how the situation will benefit her: it's true she despised low class people but it'll be a pleasure for her to watched Malika-her sister in-law being tortured by one of her sons, whom she loved so much, it will surely be a show for her, watching Malika go down right in front of her.
On the other side of the dining table was Ameen Hamood and his mother Hajiya Kilishi, they wished it was true so they will understand how important every single person in the world is.
'Oh i hope it's true, if it happen then their ego will be crushed down, then my family's life will be on the right track.' Hajiya Kilishi thoughts looking at Malika.
"He won't dare do what his beloved mother hate the most, right Asad dear!" Zeenat said still smiling her eyes glancing at both the quiet mom and son.
"Please let change this topic...." Adnan starts but cut in by someone.
"Why Yaya Adnan? He had to say something for our mother's sake!" Aysher interrupt.
"Y.."
"I'm pregnant!" Balkees stands and announced the good news, changing the topic she predict will be heated more than before if Asad answered.
She placed her palm on her stomach, looking at Ameer. "Husband tells them please." Ameer hold her hand.
"Yes Balkees is pregnant but the doctor says it's complicated, if we made her stress up we'll loss the baby and we all know this is our last chance." Ameer said sadly earning a shocking look from Balkees, yes she was pregnant but without any complications.
Ameer shakes his head and in second Balkees interpret Ameer's way of calming the family.
"Alhamdulillah! Masha Allah! I'm going to be a great grandmother." The grandma hugged Balkees, caressing her back excitedly. "Well done my dear, congratulations."
"Thank you grandma!" Ameer thanked her as she hugged him.
"Malika amazing your gonna be a grandma soon." Hajiya Kilishi looked at Malika whose expression changed, she was desperately hoping for a grandchild and now her dream will come true, though her excitement was covered by her cool behavior they all knew she'll certainly be happy.
Balkees walked to her mother in-law. "Mother." She hugged her. "I don't wants to lose my baby, again. Please take care of me and my baby!" She cried, praying for herself, she don't wants to experience the pain of losing her child before it even been born.
Malika slowly placed her palms on Balkees's back, taping it slowly and caressing it. "It ok nothing will happen, congratulations." She said calmly.
Asad and the raise congratulates the couple, feeling happy for them.
Thanks to Balkees and Ameer the fire was extinguished.

Malika
The head of staffs came in holding a mug of hot coffee for Malika, she walked to the balcony where she knew she would find her boss.
"Ma'am!" She placed it on the table next to her. Malika whose eyes where set outside looking at the compound of her house, wearing a beautiful silk sleeping dress, her long hair strengthened and grazing her back, her elegant demeanor radiating her surrounding.
"Thanks." She said to her trusted person.
"Ma'am it already pass your bed time, shouldn't you consider going to bed?" The woman said wishing for her boss to at least sleep, she was there everything took place, it was an unfortunate event for her boss but she wants her to forget about it because nothing will happen without her permission.
"I wants to be alone Asma'u!" Malika states slightly.
"Yes ma'am," the woman whose name was Asma'u bowed her head holding her work tap. "Goodnight." She leave looking at the other side which was a door that lead to Malika and Ameen private place.
Malika took the coffee sipping it calmly but deep down she's burning. Everything that took place earlier at the dinning hall was coming back to her.
"Why Yaya Adnan? He had to say something for our mother's sake!"
"Y.."
She closed her eyes bitting the inside of her mouth, she was sure HER Son Asad was about to say yes.
'After what happened to my brother there's no way I'll let any low class entered my family!' She though slowly opening her eyes.
"Love!" A voice called but she doesn't move an inch. Ameen walked to her and hugged her from where she was seated, plantings a peck on her temple.
"What are you thinking?" He asked the obvious after sitting next to her. She looked at him sipping the coffee without forming a word. Her husband hold her gaze making her melt by the love she had for him, she might be the person who doesn't express their feelings but she can't resist Ameen Hamood's charm.
"Nothing." She finally mumbled.
"Not everyone will be like her, opened up to people please." Ameen hold her hands trying to starts a conversation she always don't like.
"It's ok as long as I'm alive my children will be mine, i will protect my family at any cost.." she trailed off. "Asad will have to give up on what ever he's up to, for his family and mother's sake." She stand and adjust her dress walking towards the door that leads to their private part.
"I'll find a suitable bride for him, one who had the same level and class with us, a woman who will hold our pride not someone who'll disgrace us or pull us down." She said without stopping which was unlike her.
Ameer had a wife with the same class as them, while Adnan had Rayhana who was more than perfect, but her carbon copy was single, all this while she was patiently waiting for his bride and now!
"No way!"
As Malika was trying to deny the fact that her son Asad was in love with someone, Asad was looking at Noor's pictures, new feelings igniting within him for the blind girl!
As she had a plan to find him a woman perfect for him, Asad had already found the perfect life partner for himself!
What could be the reason behind why Malika hate ordinary people?
Will this love story end before it even begin for Asad and Noor?
Will Asad give up on his love for his mother's sake?
