Mirza House

"Mashallah! My bestie is looking so beautiful.", Ayat, Dua's one and only best friend said happily.

Today the Khans will come to talk about the marriage proposal. Dadi Jan was super excited and she was making sure that everything is perfect.

"Ayu, I'm very nervous. I wonder, what will they ask me!", Dua confessed.

"Hey, chill! Just wink at the guy and he will faint on spot. ", Ayat joked trying to enlight her mood and became successful!

"Dua, they're here. Let's go.", her mother came to take her downstairs.

-------------------

Dadi Jan was talking with her bestie. Ibrahim was talking with Wazid; Saad's father. By talking with Wazid he was sure that they are from a decent family.

Soon, Ayesha entered in the living room with her princess Dua and grabbed everyone's attention.

"Look, our Dua is here.", Dua's Dadi Jan said and everyone looked at their direction.

"Assalam u Alaikum", Dua looked up and saw two familiar figures. She became surprised and happy as well.

"Come, beta (child). Sit here", Sayeda said as she patted the space between her and Zaira, Saad's sister.

Dua went and sat there. But, her eyes were stuck somewhere else.

"Mashallah, you're so pretty!", Sayeda said caressing her head.

"Thank you, aunty.", she replied softly.

"Hey! I think we met before.", suddenly Zimraan said to her.

"Yes, at the mall.", she smiled.

"Yeah. By the way, nice to meet you again.", Zimraan smiled.

"Same here. Um... Can- can I carry her?, she hestaingly asked pointing at Sara who was in Zimraan's arms. A smile crept on Sayeda and her mother-in-law's face and they looked at each other.

"Yeah, sure!", he handed Sara to her.

"Hello, baby! Look we met again. I'm so happy to see you again!", she whispered in a baby voice and smiled. Sara giggled.

"Seems like you already became friends, huh?", Sayeda asked in a happy voice.

"Yes.", Dua said with a shy smile.

"Dua, beta. Do you remember me?", Saad's Dadi Jan asked her while caressing her cheeks.

Dua looked at her but couldn't remember if they met before or not. So, she looked at her Dadi Jan for answer.

"She is also your Dadi Jan, Dua. When you were a child, you always wanted to stay with her.", Dua's Dadi Jan told her remembering old days.

"I'm sorry, Dadi Jan. I couldn't recognise you.", she said to Saad's Dadi Jan lowering her head.

"Hey! It's okay my child. You were a baby that time.", she kissed Dua's forhead.

Then, the situation became awkward again. Dua was feeling uneasy between so many strangers. Zimraan cracked a few jokes to make the situation normal as he could sense the uneasiness of Dua.

"Sorry. I'm late!", Saad's voice beamed in the living room as he entered.

As he went to them, he also became surprised and happy as Dua.

"Dadi Jan and Ibrahim sir!", he didn't expect Dua's Dadi Jan and her father to be there.

"Saad!", Ibrahim and his mother said together. He's voice was full of surprises and Dadi Jan's voice showed her happiness.

"Assalam u Alaikum!", he said as he hugged Ibrahim and then went towards Dua's Dadi Jan. He kissed her hand and hugged her.

"Mera baccha (my child)! How are you?", Dadi Jan asked while cupping his face.

"Alhamdulillah! I'm fine, Dadi Jan. How're you?"

"I'm also fine, my child."

Then, Saad was talking with Ibrahim. He was glad to meet his idol, his Ibrahim sir and his Dadi Jan.

On the other hand, Dua was sitting there like a dumb. She had no clue that what was happening there.

Saad met Ibrahim in London when they went for a business trip. That time Saad was new in business world. He was in a big problem but, couldn't find any way to solve it. Ibrahim was the one who helped him. He guided him like a father. From that time he became Saad's idol.

Ibrahim cleared everyone's confusion by describing everything. Sayeda became more happy as her son already knows Dua's father.

They talked about Saad's proposal for Dua. Ayat and Dua's mother were shocked for a while cause they didn’t expect this as Saad is already a father of a child.

"I hope you will understand my situation. After all, you are also a mother.", Sayeda said to Ayesha softly.

Both of them further continued their conversation on the same topic.

After some times, the Khans stood up to leave while the Mirzas went with them towards the the gate to bid a farewell. After greeting each other, they sat in the car.

Dua hugged Sara and placed a kiss on her cheek lovingly while Sara's tiny hands wear caressing Dua's cheeks. She looked towards her right side when she felt a constant gaze on herself. She got nervous while looking in eyes of Saad.

It was completely a new thing for Saad to see Sara comfortable with strangers. He took Sara from her and hurriedly went to the car.

The Mirzas went inside. Dua and Ayat went upstairs as the others were sitting in the living room.

Ayat understood that her bestie was disturbed about today's event so she tried to diverted Dua with silly talks.

And within no time bubbly Dua was back leaving her all stress to Allah.

--------------------------

Khans reached within 30 minutes and everyone went to their respective rooms with a content mind except one.

Sara was already sleeping in her father's protective arms. Saad carefully placed her on the bed and placed pillows around her. He took his cold shower and changed in his grey t-shirt. He moved towards the balcony.

Today's event was indeed surprising for him. Meeting his idol, his Sir Ibrahim and then loving Dadi Jan after so many years! At this point he was confused. He couldn't understand what to do. How can he marry someone else and give Farha's place? How can he reject Ibrahim sir's daughter? How can he give Sara's mother's place to a stranger? How can he break that Qasm (vow)?

"Allah rehem (mercy)!", he mumbled looking at the night sky where the moon was shining and witnessed his teary eyes.
