Ayaan's POV

"SURPRISE!" Everyone jumped out. I stood there, still shocked. Slowly, I turned towards Rukhsaar who was looking back at me with a huge grin on her face.

"Iss liye tumne aaj saara din ghoomaya." I confirmed stupidly. Aapi emerged from behind the sofa, laughing. I took her in my arms, hugging the life out of her.

"Haan idiot, iss liye." She turned to the girl standing behind me. "Toh tum ho Rukhsaar. Assalamualaikum, main Sakinah." They hugged while Sabrina and Rizwan pounced on me.

Haan, laga lo gale apni hone wali nanad se. Mujhe poora din naukar banake yahaan aish karegi? Thehr jaa soniye, aage aage dekho, hota hai kya.

"Aap mujhe already jaanti hai?" She looked surprised to be recognized. I resisted the urge to push a wayward lock of hair behind her ear.

"Iss idiot ki koi bhi baat mujhse nahi chupti." Aapi boasted. I felt a bit guilty, because I hadn't told her about Rukhsaar. Woh toh Rizwan ke pait mein koi baat nahi tikti, iss liye usse pata chal gaya. "Haan, lekin main sirf tumhein naam se jaanti hoon."

Aapi ko toh bata dena chahiye tha.

A hand at my shoulder jerked me out of my thoughts.

"Oh teri khair, yeh wohi hai na? Jis se tu pyaar karta hai?" Waqas whispered harshly in my ear. I shushed him, afraid someone would hear.

"Ab tujhe kaise pata? Rizwan ne tum sab ko bhi bata diya kya?"

"Bhi ka kya matlab, usne Rukhsaar ko jaa ke bata diya?" I glared at him. He brushed off the death stare. "Aur vaise, usse batane ki zaroorat nahi hai bete, tere iraade saaf chehre par nazar aate hai." He smirked. "Kab jaa raha hai rishta le kar?"

"In Shaa Allah." I mouthed, looking back to where she was laughing away with Sabrina and Aapi. He laughed and slapped me on the back.

"Sorry we're late!" Fauzia and Mahreen burst through the door, laden with bags. They looked like I did a few hours back. Instantly, Rizwan was at their side, taking the bags from their hands.

Saala, joru ka ghulam.

"Yeh kya le kar aayi ho tum?" Aapi asked, peering through the bags. Fauzia whispered something in her ear, to which Aapi's eyes lit up with understanding. I peered at them suspiciously. While their silent exchange took place, I took a moment to look around at the decor.

"Wow," I breathed, taking in the lights, balloons and streamers. But more than that, my family, standing in the middle with cheesy smiles pasted on their faces. A huge bubble of joy burst in my chest. Hussain forced a party hat on my head and sat me down on the couch.

"Ab gifts kholne ka time." He proclaimed, handing me a long rectangular box.

"Abhi?"

"Toh shubh mahurat nikaaloon tere liye? Gifts pehle, phir baaki sab." Shehry quipped. Laughter rippled through the room. I shook my head at him.
