ISHQ-E-MUNTAZIR

4. The proposal🥀

SAAD POV
I came down for dinner and found out that I am supposed to go and see a girl for marriage tomorrow
Even though I told mama not to do anything like this she still did
And the best part about this is that Samiya is coming along
She's not talking to me and avoiding me from 2-3 days
I can feel it

I went the dining table and sat next to her
She sent a glance but nothing more
'Did I do something' I whispered so only she will be able to hear it
She glared at me but didn't reply and I didn't say anything during the dinner aswell

'So saad I heard something from chachi today' Mehrul said to me and I raised my eyebrows
She was giving me her creepy smile
I looked sameer and he gave an apologetic look

'You said yes to a proposal and you're going to go see her tomorrow' she said to me
'I didn't say yes to the proposal mene mama ko kaha ke woh larki baakion se behtar ha and she assumed whatever she wanted to' I replied hoping she would understand
(I didn't say yes to the proposal I told mom said she's the best option out of all the girls and she assumed what she wanted to)
she understood and dropped the conversation for later

After our dinner Samiya quickly went to her room
Mehrul me sameer mahd manal murat and hamad sat together for tea and all the adults went to their rooms
'So saad you're going for a proposal tomorrow?' Mehrul asked
I gave her a look
'I told you mama did all by herself I did not have any say' I replied frustrated

She looked at me with a look that said 'we'll talk later'

After talking a little we all went to our rooms
I was outside my room when mehrul called me
'Saad wait' she said and I turned around
'Saad what is with the rishta's' she asked
(Proposal)
'I told you mom didn't ask me she did want she wanted to do' I replied to her frustrated
'But you've got to stop her did you tell her that you like Samiya?' She asked me
'Is it not obvious enough for everybody' I said to her rolling my eyes

'And honestly I'm not young anymore and Samiya is not ready to get married maybe I should just try to move and see someone' I told her
I wish I didn't but I have to do it
'I've asked you a million times and you tell me the same thing every time that she is not ready well I'm not getting any younger' I sighed

'If you think that way then I'm sorry saad you don't deserve her. She will not sacrifice her life just because YOU are older than her and YOU like her and YOUR parents want you to get married' she pointed her finger at me

'I know mehrul but I only want you to tell her or give her a hint or even ask about her marriage. What if she likes somebody and has someone in her mind already than I'm only wasting my time on someone who doesn't deserve it'
Mehrul gave me the 'what did you say' look after I said this to her
'She deserves the best of all and I said yes to you because I thought you'd be the best for her but apparently I thought wrong' she said and stomped away
I was so tired that I didn't think about and directly went to bed

SAMIYA POV
I was sad
Don't really know why but I was
I mean he's my cousin
I should be happy that he's getting married and settling down
But what was api talking about if he didn't like me
I need to confirm this with him
Or maybe not

I was making up my mind
And I was about to say yes

I really don't want to go tomorrow

I lying down overthink about things I shouldn't care about and somehow fell asleep

I was awaken by someone knocking on my door
'Samiya beta wake up hum 30 mins mai Nikal rhe hain aap jaldi tayar hojae' chachi woke me up
I opened door
(Samiya darling wake up we're leaving in 30 mins you should get ready)
'Han im up....chachi I don't really feel well I don't want to go' I told her
'Beta ab tou mene zoya ko boldia ke aap aa rhi ho warna zoya ajati mere saath ho sake tou ajao' she said with hope in her eyes and I couldn't say no
(Beta I even told Zoya that you are coming or else she would've accompanied us. If possible come with us)

I nodded and started to get ready
I wore a simple 2 piece suit and was off with little makeup

I was just putting on perfume when chachi called me
'I'm coming downstairs' I said as soon as I accepted the call
'Beta me, your chachu and your mom have left you can come with saad in the other car' she said to me
'Chachi I was almost done I wanted to come with you guys' I whined
'Sorry bete but we were getting late' she said to me in an apologetic tone
I sighed
'Ok'

I went downstairs and bhaijaan was sitting there with a white shirt and pants on
He was looking really nice
'Samiya itni dher laga di tu-' he stopped talking when he saw me and stared at me
(Samiya why did you take so long t-'
'You look really nice' he said and I smiled
'Thankyou'

I came to a conclusion that if I was not wanted somewhere I simply move
It's not that I'm not wanted here
It's just that these people have have already done so much for me I don't think I'm in the position to ask for more

I leave the house and bhaijaan comes out behind me
'Samiya I wanted to talk to you' he said to me
'Mama has already 3 times to tell me that we are late how about we talk later' I dismissed him
Mama didn't call me and definitely weren't late
I quickly sat in the passenger seat and closed the door

He sat in the driving seat
He started driving and we were almost there
'What is up with you why are you acting like this' he said to me
'Acting like what' I asked
'You're usually so chirpy and always talking and I've seen how you aren't talking to me for the past few days' he said and I sighed
'I don't know what you're talking you usually don't like it when I'm like that' I told him

'Aur ye aapko kisne kaha?' He asked
(And so said that to you?)
'Aapke lehje se samjh ata ha ke mai aapko kitni annoying lagti hoon' i looked him
(Your tone explains how much I annoy you)
'Aap mujhe har waqt daante rehte hain ke kam Bolo Itna nhi khao itna bahar nhi jao' I was now getting angry
(You always scold me to not talk so much not eat so much don't go out so much)

'Mai tou sirf mazak mai bolta hoon' he replied in a surrendering tone
(I only joke about it)
'Mazak aik hadd tak hota ha. Aik hi mazak 4-5 saal nhi chalta' I told him as he stopped the car
I opened the door
(There's a limit to every joke and jokes don't go on for 4-5 years)

'Aur wese bhi aapki shaadi ho rhi mujhe nhi lagta aapki hone wali biwi ko aapka mazak pasand aaega' I said to him stepping out of the car
(And your getting married your future wife will not like how you joke with me)
'Samiya listen to me fi-' he tried to talk to me but I closed the door
I was not fully angry and ready to kill someone
I rushed inside and knocked on the door
