"Maryam ao chalen, Eshal dupeher me soi thi ab uth na gyi ho." 
Raima entered the kitchen, ready to leave.
(Maryam let's go. Eshal slept in noon she may have woke up)

"Ap dobara ayengi?"
Ali ran to her and held her dupatta in his tiny hands. (Will you come again?)

"Mjhy maryam ke sath khelna hai."
Ali pouted.
(I wanna play with Maryam)

"Ab aap ajana na meri taraf."
She picked him up.
(You can come meet me)

"Mjhy toh apke ghr ka number hi ni pata." Raima chuckled at his innocence.
(But I don't know your address)

"Apna hath do."
He forwarded his hand and Raima placed a card on his hand.
(Give me your hand)

"Ye mera office hai. Ap idhar ajana, ghar hum sath chaly jayengy."
(This is my office. Come here. We'll go home together)

She closed his palm and placed a kiss on it. Hassan, who was acting oblivious of her presence and was busy with Umair, looked towards her at the word office. Wasn't she a university student?

"Maryam jao bahir aunty se mil kr ao, or Ali aap bhi jao." Raima put him down and they left the kitchen.
(Maryam Go and Meet Aunty, Ali you too)

"Umm...Mr. Hassan I don't have words to apologize but I am really sorry. I thought it was your neighbour who previously tried to—" Raima stopped, realizing what she was about to say.
"A..Anyways I—I am sorry."
She stuttered and Hassan's blood boiled when she left her sentence incomplete. He understood what she was trying to say.

"It's okay. Apne self defence me kia. I am sorry ap hamari mehman hain apke sath ye sab hua." Hassan gave a small smile and she smiled back.
(It's okay. You did it in self defence. I am sorry you're our guest you had to face this)

"Waise office? Aap toh university student hain na?" He directed her to sit.
(Btw Office, you are a university student right?)

"Jee. Third year student hun likin mama baba nahi hain to unka business bhi toh dekhna hai. Chachi akeli sab kch krti theen acha nahi lagta ab wo kren jab me bari hogyi hun."

(Yes. Third Year student but since mom dad aren't here so someone has to look after their business.  Chachi used to manage alone. It doesn't look good when Chachi do when I've grown up.)

Hassan left Umair since he was trying hard to get out of his Mamu's grip. He ran towards Raima and stood in front of her. Raima took a tissue and wiped his face since it was full of ice cream. Hassan was looking at the two, adoring them.

'Teekhi hai but dil ki achi hai'
(She's rude but good at heart)
-----------------------------------------------
It had been 5 months since they started their internship. Hoor was used to Dr. Ahil's scoldings since it had become a part of her daily life. Yumna, on the other hand was feeling dejected deep in her heart since Hadeed was not coming to hospital for a week. She had not talked to him for months because she avoided him as much as she could. Although, she did not use to engage in a conversation, but she would sometimes steal glances from afar to calm her heart.

"Ye naya larka chai achi nahi banata." Hoor grimaced taking a sip from the tea and Yumna came out of her thoughts.
(This new guy doesn't make good tea)

"Pichla wala kahan gya?" (Where did the previous one go?)
Yumna asked, acting casual.

"Usne toh chordia. Uske finals thy or finals ke bad uski shadi hai. Keh raha tha invitation dene aunga."
(He left. He had finals and after finals it's his wedding. He said he'll give invitation.)
