Haseena leaned on his shoulder, while he wrapped his arm around her tightly, squeezing it gently to comfort her.

Haseena- bas aapki hi kami khalti hai abbu ab...

AS- hame bhi baba...bahout khush hote hai aap Haseena se milkar...hum chaaro police-waalo ki team se Ammi aur Maa pareshaan ho jaate... (He chuckled)

But Haseena could see the pain in his eyes reflecting through the glass of their father's picture.

HM- dekhiye na Ammi humare niqah ke liye kitni khush hai, aakhir hogi bhi humne kya khoob shohar chuna hai apne liye woh bhi pata nahi kitne ladko ko reject karke...kyuki ye bikul aap jaise hai...humse utna pyaar karte hai jitna aap Ammi se karte the, sabse pehle apne desh ko chunte hai,...uske aage kisi ko nahi rakhte aur humare bachpane aur shararat me humara saath dete hai...kaash aap dono bhi humare saath hote toh humari family ekdum perfect aur complete hoti...

Anubhav couldn't hold for any long. She had rarely seem him cry. Haseena embraced him tightly in her arms.

AS- kyu Haseena. Baba humme chodke kyu gaye, us aayu me humme khuch bhi samjh nahi thi, aam baap- bete ke tarha nahi the hum, woh humare dost the...Kitna khelte the hum unke saath. Ab toh yaade bhi dhundhli pad gayi hai us samay ki. Itni naragaazi hai humme unse yu aise chale jaane gi lekin usse bhi vyakt nahi kar sakte. Dar lagta hai Haseena humme. Jaise baba ko khoya waise hum aur kisi ko nahi kho sakte...itni shakti nahi hai humme ab. Ammi aur Maa ki dhalti umar dhek ke dar lagte hai humme...abhi hi toh hum seekhe hai parivaar ke saath jeena, unke liye aur apne liye jeevan jeena... [he poured out all of his insecurities, as he sobbed his voice softened...haseena rubbed his back to calm his sudden outburst. leaning on her toes she kissed his temple]

HM- shaant ho jaaiye anu...hum sab hai aapke saath sahi, jo beet gaya usse hum nahi badal sakte lekin Allah se yahi dua karenge ki humare parivaar ko humsha salamat rakhe, saath rakhe... [she whispered against his ear, softly moving her fingers through his ears]

Anubhav rested his forhead on hers, cupping her face. Taking in deep breadths he tried to calm his vulnerable side, which was only known to HM and to some extent his mother.

In evening,

AS- Amma...(He called out before entering her room)

Maa- karli Haseena se baat? (Teasing him)

AS- nahi na Maa, voh toh vyast hai abhi...koi milne aya hai unse...aur abhi hi pahuchi woh ghar, chacha ji ke yaha se thana door padta hai (frowning cutely)

Maa- sach batau toh mujhe kabhi laga nahi tha ki tujhe kisi ki itni adat padegi, tu kisi se itna pyaar karega...

AS- laga toh humme bhi kaha tha Amma, lekin aapki jo bahurani hai na voh anmol hai

He said and rested his head on his mother's lap. Snuggling in, he covered his face with her saree pallu. She knew he had been missing his father. Even she missed him so much today, when their son is going to enter new life with the love of his life.
She wanted to witness this phase of her life with him, welcoming her daughter in law.

Maa- Anu... (she called out sweetly) agar baba ki yaad aa rahi hai toh aise udas mat ho, ro nahi...bas aankhe band karke unhe mehsoos kar aur apne dil ki baat share karle...

AS- kyu Maa, aise kyu humesha? Itni jaldi kyun humara saath chutha...(He still complained like a child, crying a little, knowing the question will be unanswered forever)

Ammi entered Haseena's room with a bowl of besan, dhai and chandan face pack. That time she had just come from washroom after freshening up.
