Synthesis of Scattered Pieces ✔️

43. ..

After tossing on the couch the whole night she was feeling exhausted, last night she was unable to sleep due to the revision for practical and tonight uncomfortable this uncomfortable couch didn't let her sleep peacefully. Looking toward the bed she saw Daniyal sleeping peacefully and she wondered how he had spent last night on this couch.

Sitting on the couch she picked her hair up and tied them up in a messy bun. There was still half an hour to fajr namaz, so she decided to pray tahajjud. After a quick ablution, she spread the prayer mat but instead of starting praying, she looked at her husband who was sleeping on his stomach.

"Deni." She called him not so loudly. "Deni, wake up and pray tahajjud." She again called him but didn't get a response from him. She could leave him sleeping but she wanted him to bow his head in front of the Almighty so that his day would be great.

"Deni," this time she dared to place her hand on his arm and shake that lightly. "Hmm?" He opens his eyes and found his beautiful wife, draped in a white dupatta, right in front of his eyes.

"Wake up Deni, there are only twenty minutes to fajr namaz, meanwhile pray tahajjud," she told him in a soft voice and Daniyal sat down on the bed while running his fingers in his hair to set them properly and wear his specs.

"Aap parho main aata hu." Mumbling that he dangle his legs down from the bed and Shifa obeyed him.

(You start praying, I'm coming )

She was in the middle of her prayer when Daniyal came on her right side and spread a prayer mat for himself. In no time he was busy praying. After a while of recitation of the Quran and followed by fajr namaz they both raised their hands for dua.

"Ya Allah, Ya rabbul Aalameen, you're Al-Hakeem (The wise) only you know why you didn't answer my prayers when I was crying out in front of you for Adeena, but now you've given me Shifa without even asking for her. Only you know the reasons behind your decisions but Allah paak now I'm concerned, I don't wanna be an unjust man who does not give the required amount of love and respect to his wife, it's a challenge for me, but in my heart, there is no space to love Shifa. I feel scared, what will happen if I become a culprit to break her heart one more time, I don't want to see tears in her eyes, I feel pain when she cries, Allah paak please don't make me a reason for her tears.''

''Aameen" he turned his head and found his wife already busy doing dua with closed eyes. A smile crawled to his lips unknowingly.

"Allah paak you've tied us in the bond of nikkah, please make this relationship healthy and beautiful. Please make both of us like you want your servants to be. And please develop love for me in Deni's heart."

"Aameen." She opens her eyes to find a handsome face with a smile.

"Kya kya maang liya Allah se?" He asked but Shifa preferred to stay silent, she fold the prayer mat and placed that in the cupboard.

(What did you ask from Allah?)

"Chai piyogi?" Asked Daniyal while stepping towards the door of the room but Shifa glanced at the clock in disbelief.

(Wanna have tea)

"5 baj rhe hain Deni, is time kon chai peeta hai?"

(It's only 5 in the morning, who have tea this time.)

"Fajr ke baad hum sab chai peete hain, phir thodi deyr soo jaate hain. Agar aap bhi chai piyogi to main ammi se keh dunga wo aapke liye bhi bana dengi."

(We all have tea after fajr and then sleep for a while. If you want ammi will make tea for you too.)

"Deni,"
