"Kya baat hai mom? Ap badi khush lag rahi hai" Shiza said coming near to Mrs Malik who was talking on the phone to someone.

"Khushi ki hi baat hai ... Aj mere dono bete ghar wapas aa rahe h itne dino bad" mrs malik said happily

" What?... Haadi bhai aa rahe h?.." She jumped happily "mom Haadi Bhai aa rahe h or aap ab mujhe bata rahi h..."

"Haadi or Arsam,dono Bhai arhe h tumhare aj.. Or tm srf haadi Bhai.. Haadi Bhai kr rhi ho..." Mrs Malik eyed her

Haadi's POV

The car stopped at Malik's Mansion. I saw Shiza and mum coming out...It feels so good to be back..I missed my family so much..

"Assalam walaikum mama" I walked to her and hugged her..

"Walaikum assalam ,kaisa hai mera beta?... Kitna kamzor lag rha h dekho.. " mom said concerned while shiza and rohaid laughed looking at each other..

"Kamzor?.... O come on mom , haadi bhai toh pehle se b zaada handsome lag rhe hai.." Shiza came and hugged me...

"Koi mujhse bhi mera haal pooch le... " Arsam said dramatically gaining all the attention, everyone laughed looking at him..

Then he went to hug mom "Assalam walaikum mama"

"Walikum assalam beta... Or kaisa raha sab, nanajaan kaise hai?"

"Bilkul waise ke waise hi... Ekdum bindaas" he said winking..

"Mumma ab inko ander b le chale..... " Shiza said to mom and then grabbed my hand " aaen haadi bhai..."

"Haan beta , chalo ander.... Aao rohaid ..." Mom said

"After 2 days " I said slowly.

"Kash baba maan jate.. I really wish ki abi b kuch magic ho jae .. Or tm chali jao"

"Don't worry... Abhi Do din hai...Baba khud mujhe chorh ke aenge dekhna"

"How can you be so sure every time?" She asked in disbelief..

"Just trusting on Allah and being positive"

"Aapi neeche aao, dinner ke liye mumma bula rahi h " we heard minal screaming from downstairs...

"Arisha mere dost ke ghar pe rahegi wahaan, Maine usse zikr kiya tha aru ke baare me, uski family bhi rehti hai wahaan...wo log khyal rakhnge iska.."

I heard baba telling mom about his friend's family..
