Gurya (Doll) / Ehsas e Talluq (Realisation of Relationship)

Part 65.1

"Maine toh bola tha ammi, Shadi karni hai adopt thori karna ha she's 16 I am 24. Hadeed is my best friend, his wife is 26, mine will be 16. Nahi ye kia tarika hai, mazak hai."

Huzaifa whined while walking here and there in the room, embarrassed to the core. His mother had called her sister to ask for Madiha's hand and it wasn't sitting well with him. Secondly, Hadeed was his best friend. How will he meet him after this? Why was Nikkah so important before he went abroad? His mother ignored his acts and went to perform ablution and pray while he sat there with a spoiled face. He had never thought of her like that, but it wasn't a problem. He had no one in his life right now but her age was a problem. He believed she was a kid.

(I told you mom, I have to marry not adopt she's 16 I am 24. Hadeed is my best friend, his wife is 26, mine will be 16. No like what joke this is?)

"Kia adopt adopt laga rkha ha? 16 ki hai, 6 ki nahi. 2 sal me 18 hojayegi. Kia 2 saal me ek dum usne adult ban jana ha? Or main usse pooch kr hi krugi, mjhy wo bht azeez ha bhanji ha meri. 16 ki bhi umer me tum jesy 24 saal k gadhy se zyada hi smjhdar ha. Khud uth kr khana ni garam hota aur bachi wo hai." Huzaifa's mouth was hung open now as his mother left no stone unturned in insulting him. He frowned, thought for a moment then nodded with a sigh, and left the room. Nothing wrong in meeting once, right?

(What is this adopt? She is 16, not 6. She will be 18 in 2 years. Will she suddenly become an adult in 2 years? And I will ask her, she is dear to me, she is my niece. Even in 16, she's more intelligent than a 24 year old donkey like you. Can't heat food yourself and she is a kid.)

The guests were in the lounge while she was in the kitchen. It was happening with her consent, but she couldn't do anything about being a little nervous. She had thought about it, if not Huzaifa, it would be someone else. In the upcoming years of her studies, she would have to meet a lot of people and hear about her proposals or prospective husbands. She could avoid all this by marrying him. But she had some conditions that she had to tell him. Her career was important to her, she didn't want any risk on it.

She went inside and met the guests. Her khala with her husband,and son Huzaifa, other khala with her husband, Madiha's parents, Hadeed, his older brother with his wife and Yumna were sitting there.

"Bas bahir ja k bigar na jaye islye nikkah krwa k bhejna chahty hain, baqi thora bht bigra hua hai sudhar jayega shadi ke bad."

(Just so he doesn't get spoiled after ging aborad, we want to get him nikkah fied. He's just a little spoiled, he'll be fine after marriage.)

Madiha, who was sitting beside Hadeed talking to him turned her head immediately at the comment by her Khala's husband. This was not her father in law to be, this was another khala's husband. She didn't like the comment, and she was not going to laugh it off.

"I am sorry but agr ap logon ko Huzaifa p aitbar nahi hai, toh meri taraf se inkar smjhen. Main insan hu, kisi ko bigarne se bachane ka hathyar ni. Secondly, bigra hua ha to rehabilitation centre jayen, kisi ke ghr rishta le ke nahi."

(I am sorry but if you guys do not trust Huzaifa, It's a no from me. I am a human, not a tool to save someone from being spoiled. Secondly, if he's spoiled, take him to a rehabilitation centre if he is spoiled, not at someone's house with a proposal.)

Huzaifa closed his eyes in embarrassment. Did she think so low of him? He wasn't going to say yes to this proposal, he had some self respect after all.

Uncle's face drained and he coughed to cover the humiliation faced while Hadeed didn't know what to do. He could not stop Madiha but he knew Huzaifa wasn't like that.

"I want to talk to Huzaifa alone."

"Akaily?" The man intervened again, making her fake a smile. While Huzaifa was thinking 'Abhi bhi kch kehna rehta hai?'
