Humsafar (short stories)

Ishq

"Hello"
She whispered

"Hi where are you lost?"
Came the reply from another side

"Why did you call me at this time?"
She mumbled

"I was worried for you"
Replied the other person

"Listen I can't talk to you right now I am"
But before she could complete her sentence, somebody interrupted her

"Inan who are you talking to babe?"
Zabiyaar asked sitting on the bed yawning

Inan immediately hung up the call and looked at him with worried expressions

"Are you okay?"
He asked her again

"Yeah I am fi fine"
She stuttered

"But you don't look fine and why didn't you tell me who called you?"
He asked suspiciously and worriedly

"It was mama"
She said clutching her eyes tightly

"Okay"
He knew she was lying but thought to ask her later

He went to sleep as he had to get up early in the morning

Inan bends on his side to confirm if he's sleeping or not and kept a hand on her heart feeling relaxed after seeing him sleep
.....................................................................
It was evening Zaviyaar came home early to see Asad, Ayan, Arsam, Sana, Zara, and Inan on the rooftop looking for the moon he nodded his head in disbelief and started to walk towards the roof

"I think we don't need priests to look for Ramadan moon you guys are enough for that"
Zaviyaar said

Inan who was so engrossed in looking for the moon standing beside the railing got scared by his voice and was about to fall when Zaviyaar held her arm immediately

"Careful babe"
He said

"Wohooo"
All the cousins screamed together

Inan slapped Zaviyaar's shoulder

Zaviyaar glared at everyone and they suppressed their laugh immediately

Suddenly Inan screamed
"Chand"

Everybody started making dua including Zaviyaar

"Oh Allah guide me and help me in whatever I am doing"
Inan made dua

"Oh, Allah give me hidaya and peaceful life with my Inan. Allah help me to face Ghazyaan and Zaina I am very weak I need your help"
Zaviyaar made dua to see Inan looking at him lovingly

All of the cousins were making dua Inan did the action of evil eyes off

Zaviyaar lowered his head while smiling and nodding his head in disbelief
.....................................................................
"Zaviyaar get up it's time for suhoor"
Inan said shaking his shoulder

"Wow it's the first time you woke me up otherwise it's always me by the way how did you get up so early"
Zaviyaar said sitting on the bed

"Because I didn't sleep who the hell sleeps before suhoor in Ramadan I sleep after suhoor and wake up before iftar so you have to cope with that"
Inan said

"But my beautiful wife you can't do this because you had to go to college"
He said smiling showing all his teeth

"Hayee na chero hume hum sataye hue hain bohat zakhm seene pe khaye hue hain Astaghfirullah Astaghfirullah ramzan hai"
She sang dramatically

"Aur waise toh kabhi daant nikle nahi apke aur iss baat pe dekho colgate ka add hi karne lag gaye hain"
Inan said with angry expressions

"Uff Allah lagta hai begum sahiba mind kr gayi hain par aik second mind hoga toh then only you can mind right"
He winked
