Just let me love you.. again (SEASON I)

chapter 22

.
Izhaan's pov
.

I was sitting with my family after dinner, we were in the living room and having chamomile tea, it helps in having good sleep, so we mostly have it

"But what is the issue in art?" Hayat spoke

" There is no issue in art but I think you need to have a professional degree also" i said, Hayat was talking about pursuing her career in art, but I was adamant that she should continue her studies and get some professional degree

"Tum to rehne do Izhaan, tumhari padhai k chakkar mei wese hi hum pareshan hai (You let it be Izhaan. We are already stressed about your studies matter)" dada ji said

He was referring to my decision to make Reem join the university, since I used it as an excuse to delay the marriage

"God knows why you were so keen to get her admission done. She could have studied later , now unnecessarily everything has been delayed" dadi said

"You know it was embarassing for me when i gave the news to Abdullah" dada ji said refering to Reem's father

"You should be very careful about this relationship izhaan, we don't want any more embarrassment" papa warned me, I nodded

Yeh accha hai madam khud to Bach gayi mujhe phasa diya (this isn't fair, she saved herself and got me stuck in the situation)

I looked at Athar I was sure he would have something sarcastic to say about it but found him deep in thought

What is wrong with him? He looks disturbed. I will have to talk to him.

"It's okay now, just everyone leave him please, maybe the delay will be proven good. Maybe something good is about to happen" maa said

"Inshaallah (If Allah wills)" dadi said

"But what about my dress? I was thinking of buying a designer lehenga for the wedding functions" Hayat pouted.

"You can make whatever you want when the time comes" dadi said

"Let me be very clear with all of you right now, whether it is happening right now or later, but I don't want any big wedding. I'm okay with a small close ceremony" I put my point across

"What are you saying? We have so many people to invite?" Maa gasped

"We can have a big reception, but nothing more than that" I said with finality

"But I have so many friends to call, and I had made so many plans" hayat said

Athar was too quiet, he was not even participating in the conversation.

"Execute them at the time of Athar's marriage" I threw the spotlight at him

"Oh please don't even talk about him, he had troubled us so much, he's not ready to tell us the name of the girl" dadi mumbled

"I think the delay in your marriage could be because of Athar, I have always dreamt of my both daughter in laws entering the house together" maa said

"Haa to yeh bataye to kaun hai woh, kuch bolta hi nahi (then he should tell who is she. He doesn't say anything)"

Athar got up and left from there.

"What happened to him?" Dada ji asked

"It's late, he must be sleepy, I'll go to find out. Good night everyone." I got up and followed Athar. He entered the room and I trailed behind him

"What's the matter buddy?" I asked

"I don't want to talk about it" he shook his head, but I stood stubbornly
