Meerab sleep broke off when the rays of sun befall her eyes.She opens her eyes and discovers herself on the chest of Murtasim.She recalls all the moments of the last night.She blushed as she remembered that moment.Then she noticed the sleepy face of Murtasim,she feels how cute he is looking in this state.She softened his face and said in herself;
"Is admi ke ajeeb si adat ho gayi hai mujhe.Kabhi socha nahi tha mujhe kabhi isse bhi mohabbat ho sakta hai.Mujhe yeh guman tha ke mere dil pe sirf mera ikhtiyar hai waha kabhi apni marzi ke khilaf kisi ko jaga nahi dunga.Lekin dekho dil ki is jang mein aaj mein shikast kha gayi.Mohabbat ke is jang mein fatah tumhe mila Murtasim.Apni zindegi mein kabhi na shikast khanewali Meerab is kadar har gayi ke agar jit jati to zindegi bhar pastati.Mere dil ke sultan is dil pe aur is zindegi mein hukumat humesha tumhara hoga.Allah kabhi hume judai ka ghum na dikhai."
Saying this Meerab kissed on Murtasim's open chest.Murtasim held her tightly and pulled her into him.Meerab looked at him and he said;
"Tumhare dua pe amin.Allah kabhi hume judai ka ghum na dikhai.Sirf is jahan mein nahi dono jahan mein mujhe tumhare sath chahiye Meerab.Tumse ek paal ki judai mujhse bardast nahi hoga.Mere sanse ruk jayegi agar mein tumse dur ho jau to."
Meerab's eyes are filled with tears of joy.She asked him;
"Itna mohabbat kyun karte ho mujhse?"
Murtasim put a long kiss on her forehead.
"Kabhi wajah talash nahi ki aur na kabhi dil se yeh sawal pucha kyun hai mujhe tumse itni mohabbat.Mujhe itna pata hai jab se mohabbat ka matlab samjha hai tab se mein tumhe chaha hai.Barson se tum mere dil mein basi huyi ho aur tumhara woh maqam jo mere dil mein hai woh na koi lee paya hai aur na kabhi lee payega.Mere dil ke sultanat pe hukumat tumhara mere akhri saans tak chalega Meerab aur Qayamat tak tum hi meri biwi rahoge.Meri khubsurat shariq e hayat."
Meerab lost in Murtasim's eyes and calling herself a lucky woman whose husband loves her so much.

Meerab is coming to kitchen and sees Salma khanam giving instructions to the helping hands.She greets her and asks;
"Maa begum aaj raat ke dinner mein banaungi."
Salma khanam smiles at her and responds.
"Jarur beta jaise tumhe thik lage.Sab yaha hai koi madad ke jarurat ho to mulazma bhi hai."
Meerab nodded her head.
"Ji behtar."
Salma khanam left the kitchen.Meerab started preparing for the dinner.After a time Murtasim entered there and seeing him servents left the kitchen.He comes near to Meerab and hugs her from the behind.
"Kafi busy ho kya?"
Meerab turned back and replied;
"Aap ke pasand ka khana ban rahi hu is liye thori busy hu."
Murtasim makes a gloomy face and Meerab asks;
"Hua kiya hai?"
"Jaruri kaam se gao jaa raha hu.Agar pata hota aaj ke dinner tum bana rahi ho to mein plan postpone kar deta.But aab to jana parega log intezar kar rahe mera."
"Mausam ke halat thik nahi hai Murtasim.Aisa lagta hai aaj jor ke toofan ayega.Jana jaruj hai kya?"
Murtasim softly holds her face and says;
"Jaruri na hota to kabhi na jata."
Meerab holds his hand.
"Raat tak aa jaoge na?"
