AasmAd (A hausa love story)

A dying mother's wish

"I don't need everybody in my life. I just need few people who truly understand me!"

_________________________________________

"Ammi please i don't wanna go now" i whined still pleading her to let me be but as always she refused

"Tum hara dimakh kharab ho? (are you mad?) Your tickets have already been booked so stop pleading with me i've told you, you are going and thats it. Firdous is there waiting for you i promised her you would come or do you want me to look like a liar in front of them? Nahi Yeh aisa nahi hoga (No, i won't let that happen) so you better go and start packing yours bags its just a matter of three weeks"

"oh no! i totally forgot about Firdous. Ammi main zaroor aana" (i will surely go) i said in excitement.

"well even if you say you won't, you must. Yallah go to your room you are living tomrrow early in the morning."

"ok" i said and squealed. I suddenly bumped into someone and the next thing i was on the floor, on my butt.

"ss..ssorry" i said and quickly stood up.

"Are you okay?" he asked with concern

what! who heard what i heard???

"Yeah! i'm fine. I'll go and start packing. Bye" i said awkwardly and he just nodded his head.

THIRD PERSON'S P.O.V

"Do you think we should tell them now?" Ammi asked sounding worried

"Of course we will have to tell them now. For how much longer would we have to wait? they are matured enough they have the right to know what's going on. Please call Aasmita and i will give him a call."

"haan"(yes)Ammi said

After a while, she came back.

"she's coming"

He nodded his head

"Assalamu Alaikum"

they both turned their head and saw Aasad. They prayed back and gestured for him to seat.

"Abba you called for me? kuch gharbar hai?" (is anything wrong?)
Aasmita said

"kuch nahi beta, main baat karna chahta un dono se (nothing my dear, i just want to have a word with the both of you"

"Aasad" Abba called

"ji Abba" (yes Abba)

"As you all know your parents died twelve to thirteen years ago right?"

"Yes"

"Good, but there's one thing you didn't know, both of you. Actually your mother had one wish one last wish before she died which is to get the both of you married when the right time comes but you know, you plan and Allah the best of planner plans"

silence

silence

silence

"But she died without her wish being fulfiled so we decided to fulfil it. We got you married a year after their death"

AASMITA'S P.O.V

It felt like i've been stabbed with a knife. I can't believe this, I'M A MARRIED WOMAN. And that too with the person that hates me the most. wow! they did this only to fulfil a dying mother's wish, one last wish.

I really don't know how i am feeling right now. Am i supposed to be happy because i got the love of my life long ago or because i'm married to a person who hates me??

Ya khuda help me through this

"I'm sorry we kept this a secret from you. we will leave you to decide when you want the wedding to take place there's no need for nikkah since it's
already been knotted" Ammi said

"You may go now. And please don't say you are going to cancel your trip because of this"

we nodded our head then stood up and left.

I don't know what he must be thinking of me right know.
I placed my hand on the door knob and was about to enter when a voice stopped me

"No need to tell anyone about this we will all tell them when the time is right"

I turned to look at him but he wasn't there. i silently entered my room and locked it. I sat on the floor and tears began to cascade down my cheeks .

Tears of joy?
Tears of sorrow?

I don't know what to say.  I'm out of words. I need to share this with someone to ease my pain but he said i shouldn't tell anyone. Hell! who is he to say that?

Your husband

"No! he isn't my husband." i yelled

I picked my phone and dialled zarah's number. she picked after two rings.

"Yo! whats up baby gurl"

"Zarah i need to tell you something"

"what is it you sound worried"

"zarah" a sob escaped my lips

"subhanallah! Aasmita are you crying?"

"what else can i do zarah? my life is already ruined. My parents got me married when i was a kid and never told me untill now."

"what! married?" she asked unbelievably

"Yes zarah, married  And that too to the person who hates me"

"who" she asked also breaking in tears

"Ya Aasad"

"wait! what?? did i hear you right? Ya Aasad?

"Yes zarah. Its him, and the wedding will be done soon maybe after we come back. I..i just don't know what to do"

"calm down! just wait for me i'll be here in a few"

"No please don't. You will only get me into trouble he asked me not to tell anyone"

"Okay! take care please. I'd advise you pray istikahara"

"Insha Allah"

AASAD'S P.O.V

I didn't like the way i spoke to her but i had to. I was angry, angry at her. I could swear i saw my hatred in her eyes at that time. I couldn't believe it.

Has it reached to that level that she would react that way because she's married to me?

I am soo happy i'm married to her but i can't show it because of her selfish reason.

I still can't believe this!

well i don't know in what way i should show my gratitude to them for making the most beautiful creature in the world mine.

Yes! I'm happy, so happy but i can't let my feelings out.

hmmmm! nothing much to say
