His Rooh

8.

The hustle bustle caused her to stir up in her sleep. Drafting again into a dreamland, she felt a tap on her shoulder. She whined and half layed on the other pillow. Ziya shooked her head and sat beside her. "Rooh beta utho" she said smiling at her Rooh's habit of pouting even in sleep.

Rooh opened her eyes, adjusting on her bed. She saw Zareen arranging various outfits in her wardrobe.

"Aunty ap kya kar rahi h?" She asked rubbing her eyes.

"Uth gayi humari gudiya.. hum apke naye jore rakh rahe h" Ziya said arranging them.

"Naye jorr kyu?" Rooh asked confusingly.

"Ap toh zar se bhi zyda bhulakkad h!" Ziya said chuckling.

"Zar kon aunty?" Rooh asked giggling.

"Humari beti, Zareen aayengi wo aaj milengi ap unse?" Ziya asked keeping her new footwear boxes aside. Rooh nodded with excitement.

"Aunty aaj kuch h?" Rooh asked peeking out of her rooms window... finding all the helpers cleaning and decorating the haveli.

"Humari nand aaj kafi saalo baad wapas aayi h Australia se.. aaj unke bete Rehab ki sagayi h" she said being soo happy.

"Acha ye bhot khushi ki baat h" Rooh said giggling.

"Wese ap soo gyi thi.. Ruhaan ko office bhej kar? Tabiyat thik h apki?" Ziya asked worryingly. Rooh nodded smiling. "Aj uni off hena toh humne socha thoda soo liya jaye"

Ziya nodded agreeing. "Chaliye ap tayar ho jaye. Hum nastha bhijwate h, or fir ap Eira ke sath parlour chali jana" ziya said making her nod.

While Eira came pouting, "mama meri baat sune ap.. hum Rooh ko yahi chor jayenge" hearing this Ziya gasped.

"Kyu beta?" Ziya asked worryingly.

"Oho mama ap bhi na darr jati h baat baat pe.. Ruhaan or Rooh privacy nhi deni?" Eira whispered looking here and there so that no one hears her! Ziya chuckled and nodded giving thumbs up. Good idea.

The day passed with tayari shayari... soon it was time to leave for old haveli. Wajid was all grumpy as Ziya was too excited to meet Rehab after soo many years.

"Ap kyu muh phula ke bethe h!?" She asked teasing him. He rolled his eyes and Rooh served him tea.

"Wo bacha h Wajid sahab, ap toh bacho se bhi jealous ho rhe h ab" Ziya said teasing him more. He grumpily looked away. Acting all naraz. Rooh smiled at this cutest couple.

She mentally wished for their happiness and safety. Meanwhile Saad enteres, Eira squealed and quickly ran towards him.

"Saad me kesi lag rahi hu?" She asked smiling wholeheartedly.

Saad's heart skipped beats. "Masha Allah ek dum hoor" he complimented.

"Hena i know. Me hu hi itni pyari" she giggled and he too chuckled.

"Beta ap kyu abhi tak ready nhi ho?"ziya asked to Rooh.

"Woh.. aunty..  hum kya karenge waha jakar...humm.." Rooh said fidgeting her fingers.

"Tum aa rahi ho bss mene keh diya toh keh diya, chalo me tumara makeup karti hu" Eira said dragging her upstairs.

Saad shooked his head mumbling, "Allah bachaye Rooh ko Eira ki skills se" and his parents chuckled.

While here Ruhaan was busy with his files. When his phone rang, he answered the call without checking who was it. It was Rehab.

"Ruhaan kaha h tu?" Rehab asked whining like a kid.
