Epilogue

“Irfa please come here.” Shehreyar again pleaded. He hadn't seen her for four hours and according to him it was too much time.

“Sherey why are you doing this? I have so many works and beside the function is in middle.” Irfa scolded. She was tired of listening the same sentence for the nth time.

“Just once.” He whispered from the other side of the call making her close her eyes in frustration.

“No.”she said and hung up the call.

“Shifa…all fine?” Irfa asked entering Shifa's room in which she was sitting as a bride all ready in her deep maroon dress. Shifa looked at Irfa and instantly a worried look formed on her face.

“I am not at all fine...what will happen? What if Khizir says no?.. What if I fall in the hall?... What if I write my name wrong on nikkah papers?” Shifa bombarded the question at her sister-in-law. Irfa's widen a little listening to all her worries.

“Shh...stop these what ifs, nothing will happen... I was also scared. You know Khizir from your childhood, it doesn't matter how much he irritates you but at the end he apologizes. He will always keep you happy...and if he says no then we are there for him with brooms and slippers.” Irfa said holding her hands. Shifa was being way too worried, but then she was the bride. Irfa's assuring words proved to be relaxing to her a bit but still there was nervousness inside.

“Irfa mami is calling you downstairs.'' Alizeh said entering the room. Irfa nodded and asked her to stay with Shifa.

She came out of Shifa's room and proceeded towards stairs but before she could reach her destination a strong hand grabbed her wrist pulling her towards its owner

“Finally.” She could hear the soft voice near her ear as he nuzzled in her neck's crook.

“Leave me Sherey.” she said in a slow voice as Shehreyar had hugged her very tightly.

“First tell me why are you working so much in this condition...what if something happens to you?...what if our baby gets hurt.?” As usual, he was way too concerned. Irfa pushed him and smiled. She looked in his eyes seeing the love and worry, making her thank her Allah for giving her a blessing like him.

“First I am not working...no one is allowing me to do any work...and stop your what ifs, both siblings are same.” She said giggling making him smile softly.

“Ok my love...don't you think you deserve punishment?” He asked holding her from her waist. The mischief in his voice didn't go unnoticed by him.

“For what?” She asked.

“For looking so gorgeous in this saree and not coming when I called you.” He said in her ear.

“No I don't deserve any punishment and leave me please.”she started struggling in his tight grip.

In a blink of few seconds Shereyar captured her lips and all her struggle died. The blissful contact left her knees weak making her hold his shoulder tightly. His hands around her waist pulled her more to himself as he pulled back.

“So my loveyour punishment is this...dare to disobey me the results will be more dangerous”' He whispered.

“Ok now I can go.?”she asked.

“Wait”

“What?” She asked in annoyance.

He bent down and placed a kiss on her baby bump It has been six months to the day she had found out about her pregnancy and everyday it was nothing but bliss. The thought of nurturing a life inside her was overwhelming.
