Zeeshan was still frowning trying to understand what was happening, "Why?"

"I was missing my family so Phuphu told me to go and meet them." Noor said while keeping her cosmetics in her purse.

"Ok. When will you come back?"

"I don't know. With Baba I guess."

"Baba is not coming back for next 3 to 4 months."

"Oh." Noor stopped for a second. Then she picked up her phone charger slowly and kept it in her purse.

Zeeshan waited for few seconds for her to say something but when she started packing again he went in to change.

Noor was standing in front of the wardrobe thinking what else she should pack. She was confused if she should take her favourite T-shirt or not. She was still thinking what to do when Zeeshan's phone started ringing. Noor looked at the phone for few seconds before going and picking it up in her hand.

"Hello." Someone said from the other side.

"Hello." Noor said softly.

No one said anything for next few seconds before the call was disconnected. Noor frowned while removing the phone from her ear. At the same time Zeeshan opened the door.

"Who was it?" He asked.

"I don't know. Some girl. It got disconnected."

"You didn't see the caller ID?"

"Unknown number."

"Give me." Zeeshan extended his hand.

Noor gave him his phone and started packing again. Zeeshan called the number but no one answered. He kept the phone on the table and looked at his wife. He crossed his arms before raising his eyebrows,"For how many years are you going?"

"Seventeen?" Noor said after turning around to face him.

"Once in a blue moon you can give a proper answer."

Noor laughed,"I'm sorry. I'm just too excited and happy!"

"I can see that."

Noor smiled widely" you have good eyes!"

Zeeshan shook his head,"You were shouting you are hungry and now you are wasting time."

Noor eyes became wide,"I totally forgot about the food!"

Zeeshan shook his head again and started walking. Noor closed her bag and started walking behind him. She was very excited to meet her family. This was the first time in her life when she was away from her parents for so long. She was missing them more than she expected. But little did she know her excitement was not going to last for long.

"How am I looking?" Noor asked Naaz.

"Beautiful." Naaz said smiling.

"Sure? Or should I change?"

"I'm sure."

"Ok. Actually I have this habit​ of asking someone how I'm looking whenever I wear a new dress."

"Oh it's a new dress."

"Yes! Baba gifted me." Noor said cheerfully.

Naaz smiled,"His choice is good."

"Of course! Look who his wife is!"

Naaz smiled again,"you are really good with words."

"I know. I always tell Kehara I'm a perfect boyfriend material but her luck is bad!"

Naaz laughed,"Uff Noor! She is lucky with Aman."

"I know but not as lucky as she can be with me!"

Naaz laughed again,"Come here and taste this."

Before Noor could start walking, doorbell rang so, she went to open the door instead.

"Assalamu Alayekum!" Noor said loudly.

"Walekum assalam!" Mehmood tried to match her energy but failed.

"Come in come in."

"How are you?"

"Alhumdulillah great!"

"Someone is happy​."

"Yes, Someone is very happy!"

Mehmood laughed and soon they came in the living room. Noor went in the kitchen and informed Naaz about Mehmood's arrival. Then she took a glass of water for him.

"Where is Zeeshan?" Mehmood asked before taking the glass from Noor.

"Our daughter is very shy. She likes to hide in her room."

Mehmood was about to start laughing when Zeeshan came in the room and said,"Who are you talking about?"

Noor's eyes became wide. She did not turn around to face him. She looked at Mehmood for help and he smiled.

"She was telling me how desi parents talk about their Daughters." Mehmood said.

"Yes." Noor said after turning around.

"I'm finding it difficult to believe you two."

"Problem of  trusting people. That's not good." Noor said while sitting on the chair.

Mehmood started laughing making Zeeshan roll his eyes. Although Noor was always annoying Zeeshan but whenever she was with his parents automatically she becomes bearable. She was very good to them and his parents were always happy around her. That was one of the biggest reason why he was happy to be married to her. He generally saw his parents sad or angry. Seeing them laughing and smiling made him happy and complete.

"Assalamu Alayekum." Naaz said coming in the room.

"Walekum assalam." Noor and Mehmood said together.

"Baba when are you coming back?" Zeeshan asked.

"I don't know. I'm busy with a project for next six months so maybe after that."

Naaz looked down and Zeeshan Shook his head. Noor smiled when Mehmood and looked in her direction. He smiled back before looking at his wife.  Once Naaz hated to look down. According to her only weak people look down. Strong people​ like her find a way out of all the problems with their heads high up. Mehmood could not understand what made look down. What was that thing that broke her. Little did he know that only a man can break his woman to such an extent.

"Let's eat food. I'm hungry." Noor said after some time.

"When was the last time you were not hungry?" Zeeshan asked.

"Zeeshan I'm leaving tomorrrow at least treat me with respect now."

"Respect is earned."

"Then I should never respect you because I don't think you did something to earn it."

"Stop you two. Go and set the table." Naaz ordered.

Noor nodded and stood up to leave. Naaz looked at Zeeshan with her eyebrows raised. Zeeshan never thought that look can still scare him. He stood up and started walking with Noor. Naaz waited for some time before saying,"I think we should tell anbreen everything."

Mehmood frowned,"Why?"

"Because she has the right to know."

"Naaz what's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"No, there is something."

"I just want to tell her eveything."

"Why suddenly after so many years?"

"Because I want to!"

"Naaz! Calm down."

"I'm fine."

"No, you are not. what is wrong?" 

Naaz looked up in his eyes and soon her eyes were filled with water. Mehmood frowned deeply. Naaz wiped her tears before standing up and leaving the room. Mehmood was not sure if he should go and talk to her or wait for her to calm down. He was thinking fast what he should do and after some time he got up and went to her room.

"What is this?" Zeeshan asked pointing at a curry bowl.

"Green prawns curry." Noor replied.

"Ew."

"You should never say anything bad to food. You are lucky you can have food of your choice. There are people in the world who don't​ even get food one time a day."

Zeeshan raised his eyebrows and turned his face to look at Noor. Noor frowned at him before​ raising her eyebrows. Soon she understood why he gave​ that reaction and said,"My mom use to say that and I agree with her. Although even I make faces when I see​ something I don't like but that's wrong."

Zeeshan looked away and nodded his head slowly "Your mom is a wise lady."

"Alhumdulillah she is."

Noor picked up the plates and extended it towards Zeeshan,"go and keep them on the table."

Zeeshan took it and started walking. Noor was searching for a spoon when Zeeshan's phone started ringing. She wiped her hands with a hand towel and answered the call,"hello." Noor frowned when even after saying hello three times there was no response from the other side.

"Who is it?" Zeeshan asked coming near.

"I don't know. Again unknown number and no one is talking." She removed the phone from her ear to check the number.Soon the call got disconnected.

"What happened?" Zeeshan asked.

"Disconnected."

"I will check it later."

"Ok but keep your phone with yourself. I hate answering the calls of unknown people."

Noor and Zeeshan took the rest of the food to the table and sat down on the chair. They sat there for five miniutes but Naaz and mehmood did not come. After waiting for some more time they went to the living room to check on them but they were surprised to find the room empty.

"Did they run away to an unknown land?"

Zeeshan rolled his eyes. He went near the window to check if they were outside. They were not there but their cars were. It was obvious they are at home so he started walking towards his mom's room. Noor, like an obedient child was following him quietly.

"Naaz calm down." They heard Mehmood say when they got near the room.

"What happened? Someone said something? Why are you crying?"

Zeeshan and Noor frowned and stopped right outside the room.

"Naaz. Enough." Mehmood said softly. "Everything is fine."

Zeeshan frowned deeper before he started walking. Noor stopped him by immediately holding his hand.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

"Going inside."

"Why?"

"Noor my mom's crying."

"And your dad is there for her."

"So? Let me go in."

Noor started pulling him,"No! Let them be together. She needs him now. You can talk later."

"I don't understand why?"

"Because I'm saying. Now come with me." Noor pulled him again.

He looked at Noor with a dark expression on his face. After staring her for few seconds he removed her hand from his and went down. Noor again followed him leaving Naaz and Mehmood alone.

"Zeeshan." Noor said when they entered the living room.

"Why did you stop me from going inside?"

"Because it's high time your parents stop acting like kids and patch up. And for that they need some time alone. Look I know you wanted to make sure that your mom is fine but she needs your father now."

"How do you know that?"

"I have seen lots of movies! And I'm smart!"

"Why on earth did I marry you?"

"I want answer to that question as well!"

Zeeshan looked away to calm down. Noor sat on the couch.

" She'll be fine."

Zeeshan folded his arms and was still looking in the other direction. She waited for some time for him to speak. "So you are not going to talk to me? Good. Because that is fine. I won't take it as a punishment. I'm very happy about it."

Zeeshan stood up and left. Noor raised her eyebrows and bit her lower lip. Zeeshan went to their room and going by his mood Noor was not planning to be in the same room with him for next few hours. So now she was stuck in the living room.  She was feeling bad for Naaz and wanted to know what happened but she didn't want to be the third wheel.Like she said Naaz needs​Mehmood.

***
Noor was lost in her book when a phone started ringing. She looked to her left and found Zeeshan's phone ringing. She kept the bookmark in the book and picked up the phone.

"Hello." Noor said.

"Wait a sec." Said a girl from the other side.

Noor frowned and her heart started beating faster. Zeeshan opened the door of the bedroom and came inside. He saw Noor and frowned.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

"Your phone was ringing so I answered it. There is a girl on the other side who told me to wait a sec. She was crying! Maybe she is your patient's mother. Ask her what happened!"

Zeeshan​ took the phone for her hand. He was quiet for some time before he frowned"what happened? Why are you crying? I'm coming. Yeah fine. Stop crying I'm coming." Zeeshan left the room leaving a confused Noor behind.

Noor was feel sick for a really long time. She was scared and worried. After few hours it was almost time to leave so she started packing her stuff. She only had one hour left and everything was a mess. She realised her phone was about to die and her charger was no where to be found.

"Where did I keep it!" She opened her bag and started searching for her charger. Then she opened her purse but again no luck. She opened the drawer of the side table. When she could not find it in the room she went to the living room to check. After some time her phone started ringing so she came running back to her room. She picked it up from the chair and saw the caller ID before answering the call.

"I'm almost ready Baba." She said as soon as she answered the call.

"Noor."

Noor frowned,"Baba what happened? Where are you?" Mehmood did not reply for some time."Baba say something. You are scaring me." He again did not say a word." Baba?"

"Anbreen is no more."

Her head started spinning and her heart rate was rising. Automatically her eyes were filled with water. Breathing became difficult.

"Call Zeeshan and tell him...."

Noor removed the phone from her ear. Her phone switched off because of low battery. She started searching for her charger again. Soon the room was a mess but she found her charger. She was connecting her phone to the charger when she heard the main door being opened and then close. For some reason her phone was not connecting and she was trying it again and again because she wanted to talk to Mehmood and confirm that the news was not true. After few seconds she left the phone from her hand and ran outside. Her phone fell down because Noor did not realise there was no table where she left it.

She ran down to see who it was. Tears were still rolling down her cheeks. She saw Zeeshan coming towards her. She opened her mouth to tell him everything when she saw something in his hands​.

"Zeeshan what is that?" She asked.

"My daughter."
