Ok! Sorry! I had ganpati holidays and then someone or the other kept coming so I got almost 10 days holiday. That's why I use to update daily. But now regular clg has started and I don't get time. I have board exams next month and also I'm taking part in a writing competition so I'm really busy these days. I know it's hard to wait but I cannot update regularly now. I'm very busy for next 2 months. I'm so sorry. I do promise to update whenever possible. I hope you all understand.

Enjoy:)

"Zeeshan Sir."

Zeeshan closed his eyes before slowly shaking his head.

"You cannot get away from it!" Noor exclaimed.

Zeeshan looked at her for a brief second before he looked back at Zynah. It was obvious that he cannot escape from that. He thought for some time about which of his embarrassing memories he should share as he had tons of embarrassing memories.

"Zeeshan." Afzal said.

"Ah. Ok. So the most embarrassing thing I did was to spill juice on myself in front of hundreds of people. "

"How did that happen?" Noor asked.

"I was trying to impress one girl from school."

Noor's eyes became wide but she was still smiling. Zeeshan looked at her to see her reaction. He rolled his eyes after seeing her smiling face. He was not expecting her to smile and it irritates him when something unexpected happens.

"Ok next!" Zynah said before starting any other nursery rhyme video.

"Kehara!" Noor and Zynah said together.

"Come on wifey tell us about the most embarrassing thing you did." Aman said, smiling.

Sufyaan looked up at Aman when he said wifey. Aman frowned at him before looking away.

"Sufyaan they are married." Afzal reminded Sufyaan.

"Ok ok." Kehara said, shaking her brother's hand. "So the most embarrassing I did was to slap a stranger thinking it was my friend Amy."

Everyone started laughing whereas Kehara looked down in embarrassment.

"You didn't see her face?" Zyva asked.

"Her back was facing me and she had the same hair style like my friend and also my friend had a T-shirt just like her."

"Allah." Noor Said before laughing again.

"Kehara Baji I guess you are going to win the award for the most embarrassing thing ever done." Zynah said.

"Ok now enough! Start again." Kehara said smiling warning everyone to stop.

"Ok! So last time!" Zynah exclaimed before starting the video again.

"Zyva!" Noor said shaking her head.

"Allah!" Zyva sighted.

"I know her what she is going to say!" Zynah said smiling.

"You keep quiet! I will decide which one to say."

"Spill the beans Zyva!" Noor teased.

"Ok. So I was 2 or 3 years old and I was crazy for chocolates." 

"Was?" Sufyaan asked raising his eyebrows.

Zyva widened her eyes to tell her husband to keep quiet which made him smile.

"So where were we? Yeah Chocolate. I was crazy for them. My mom had to hide it from me. Once she hid it in her purse. One day I found the purse open. So I started pulling out everything that was inside it. I found two chocolates but as they were in there for a really long time it was all melt and was on Comb and mirror as well which was also in the purse . I ate all the chocolate she had and also from that Comb and mirror." Everyone started laughing making Zyva red.

"And our cousin Hadee Bhai saw her! He still teases her!" Zynah added.

"Yeah he told me that story." Sufyaan said.

"Hey he added some masala to that story!" Zyva said.

"No all he said was true!" Zynah said immediately.

"You don't even know what he said!" Zyva said narrowing her eyes

"I know my cousin well. He will never lie!"

Zyva narrowed her eyes making everyone laugh again.

"Ok so the most embarrassing thing ever down award goes to Kehara Baji!" Zynah exclaimed, clapping her hands.

Noor and Zyva also started clapping their hand. Kehara frowned when Zynah gave her a small box wrapped in a gift paper.

"You seriously kept gift for the winner?" Kehara asked in disbelief.

"Next game!" Zynah said making everyone quiet. "In this game all the husbands have to tell us the first time they met their respective wives. Whoever fails to do that will be beaten by their wife at home!"

"Why are you not asking our wives?" Sufyaan asked.

"Because I'm sure they haven't forgotten that day." Noor said.

"Now don't argue Brother-in-law!we will start with Aman Bhai! So tell us where did you meet Kehara Baji for the first time?"

Aman raised both his eyebrows,"Ah. In her house?" He said looking at Kehara.She slowly shook her head. "My house?" She again shook her head in a no. " In your college while picking or dropping Noor?"

"No!" Kehara said narrowing her eyes.

"I think you have forgotten where we first met. I'm sure it was at your house."

"Masjid! That was my second day in the country."

Aman thought for some time but he failed to remember where they met for the first time.

"I did not expect that from Aman Bhai." Zynah said.

"Yeah. If he doesn't remember then hoping that from our husbands is pointless." Yamina said.

"Zeeshan sir now." Zynah said.

Noor looked up at her husband. He was sure he won't be able to tell when and where they met for the first time. She was sure he won't be able to say where was the first time they met after years, last year.

"14th august, 1991. Few minutes after she was born in the hospital."

Everyone including Noor was shocked to hear him answer. He didn't even tell where but also when was the first time he saw Noor.

"What time were you born Noor?" He asked his wife.

"10:13 in the morning."

"Then around 10:40 or 10:45."

"Wow." Yamina said, impressed by Zeeshan's memory.

"Yeah he was the first one from the Family who saw her. But everyone says that I was very excited to meet her then where was I?" Aman asked.

"You were there. You,me and our grandfather went their together but then you ran somewhere and Nanajaan went after you. He told me to wait there so when the nurse came out with her no one was present there."

"Wow your memory! MashaAllah." Kehara said.

"I was too young when Aman was born and my dad's family lived in India, so we can say it was the first time I was going to see a baby and like Aman even I was excited to see the new member of the Family. That's why I remember that day."

"How cute!" Haajar said from where she was sitting in the corner with kids.

Kehara and Zyva smiled at their Cousin before looking at Noor who was shocked. She didn't realise that she was staring at Zeeshan. Soon Zeeshan sensed someone's eyes on him. He looked at her which made her realise that she was staring. She looked away and found Kehara and Zyva looking at her. She smiled at them before looking down.

"Afzal." Zynah said.

"I don't remember. We were really young. As far as I remember she was always part of my life."

"Haww Afzal " Noor said.

"That's ok. Even I don't remember when was the first time we met." Yamina said in her husband's defence.

"Last but not the least my brother in-law." Zynah said.

"In the office on her first day."

"Wow! We got the answer from the people we didn't expect and the people we were sure will give the answer disappointed us." Zynah said.

"Sad." Noor said smiling.

"Now last game before we have dinner!" Zynah said before anyone could protest.

"Ok but last." Kehara said.

" Yep! First of all you all need to answer these questions fast!" Zynah said before circulating eight papers.

Everyone took one paper each. Then Haajar gave them pen to write. It took everyone five minutes to answer all the questions. Then Zynah collected them back.

"Ok. So I will ask you all the same questions but you have to answer what your spouse might have written. Let's see who knows their partner the most."

"Wait wait I didn't get you." Afzal said.

"You have to guess what Yamina might have answered for those questions."

"Oh ok."

"We will start with Aman Bhai and Kehara Baji."

"Oh we have to answer together?" Kehara asked.

"Yes. It will save time."

"Ok."

"So the first question. White or black. Aman Bhai answer what Kehara might have said and Kehara Baji say what Aman Bhai selected."

"White." Aman said.

"Black." Kehara said.

"Total score will be revealed in the end. Next question. Home land or America?"

"Homeland." Aman said.

"America of course." Kehara said rolling her eyes.

"Biryani or noddles."

"Biryani." Kehara said.

Aman frowned,"probably left it blank."

Kehara smiled at that before looking at him. He winked her which made Sufyaan roll his eyes.

"Mom or dad?"

"Mom." Aman replied immediately.

"Mom." Kehara said smiling.

"Last. Keyaan or Amal?"

"Ticked both." Kehara said.

"Same." Aman said.

"Wow! That was fun! Next is Afzal and Yamina."

"Bring it on!" Afzal said rubbing his hands together.

"Black or white?"

"Black." Both said together.

" Homeland or America."

"America." Again they said together.

"Cheesecake or chocolate fudge?"

"Cheesecake cake." Yamina said.

"Chocolate fudge." Afzal said.

"Six months holiday or alternate working days?"

"Six months holiday." Yamina said.

"Alternate."

"Ok. Last. Long walk or long drive?"

"Long drive." Afzal said.

"Long walk."

"Wow. My sister! Black or white?"

"Black." Zyva said first.

"White."

"Homeland or America."

"Homeland." Zyva said.

"India." Sufyaan said.

"Parents or sister?"

"Parents." Sufyaan said.

"Sister." Zyva said looking at Kehara.

"I'm hurt" Zynah said. " How many kids?"

"Millions." Zyva said rolling her eyes.

"Two." Sufyaan said.

"Last. Zynah or Kehara."

"Zynah." Sufyaan said.

"Kehara." Zyva said.

"Ok. Last couple! My favourite Noor!  White or black?"

"Black." Noor said.

"Black." Zeeshan said softly.

"Homeland or America."

"America" Noor asked looking at Zeeshan.

"America." Zeeshan replied.

"How many kids?"

"Three." Zeeshan replied.

Noor raised eyebrows as she did not expect him to say that. "Two?" She said again not sure of the answer.

"Mom or dad?"

"Dad." Noor said.

"Dad." Zeeshan said shaking her head.

"Books or TV?"

"Books." Noor said.

"TV." Zeeshan said.

"Alright! We are done. Wow that was a fun game. Time for results."

"Aman Bhai and Kehara Baji you two are my favourite! They both got all the answers right."

"Wow." Noor said before clapping her hands.

"As expected." Zyva said.

"Afzal and Yamina. They both got one answer wrong."

"That's ok baby!" Afzal said making Yamina smile.

"My sister! Disappointed! She got two wrong and Sufyaan Bhai got all right."

Zyva's eyes widened before she bit her lower lip. She looked at her husband who smiled at her. She was feeling guilty and embarrassed but Sufyaan was totally fine with that.

"Noorie got 3 wrong and Zeeshan sir got one wrong."

Noor's eyes popped out. She was not expecting her to perform for poorly and more shockingly she was not expecting Zeeshan to do so well.

Soon they all were laughing and talking while having their lunch. All were enjoying their time but there was one who was not enjoying. He was lost in his own world. He was feeling left out not because others were making her feel that but because he felt like others will judge him for his past.

"Zeeshan! You can talk. We won't pounce on you." Afzal said.

Zeeshan smiled but didn't say anything. He thought they all were just trying to be nice. He looked at Noor who was busy talking to Zyva. He then looked at his phone. Just then he reserved a call. Excusing himself he went to another room.

Noor could sense that Zeeshan was uncomfortable and wanted to run away, but she didn't understand why. All were good to him and they were having fun then why was Zeeshan not enjoying? This question was bothering her. She thought of asking Zeeshan what was happening so when he left the room she followed him. 

"That's fine. Yeah I understand. Ok. Bye." Zeeshan said.

Noor frowned at his worried expression before asking,"what happened?"

"I didn't get the job in the hospital I applied last week."

"Oh." Noor who was upset at him and wanted to question him suddenly felt sad for him. "It's ok. InshaAllah something good will come our way soon."

"I don't know. It has been three months almost. Our savings will soon end."

Noor smiled at the fact that Zeeshan called his savings as their savings although Noor didn't even contribute a single dollar.

"Allah will help us Zeeshan."

"We will talk about this when we go home. Now let's to spoil everyone's mood."

"That's a good plan."

"But can we go home early? I know you want to stay but can w..."

"We will leave now."

"Now?"

"Yeah now. We both are done with food, so we are just going to sit and chat. Let's go home."

"Ok."

Noor nodded before turning around and leaving. She went and told her friends that they were leaving. Zeeshan took Iiman in his hand and Noor was holding Zubiya's hand.

It took them around fifteen minutes to reach home. Noor changed Iiman and Zubiya's clothes into their nightdress before putting them to sleep. Once done with that she changed. She was sad for Zeeshan but she was really happy to finally be in the comfortable clothes. She loved the dress she wore but that wasn't comfortable.

When she came out of the bathroom she saw Zeeshan sitting on the floor. Closing the door of the bathroom she went towards him.

"How are you feeling?" She asked while sitting next to him.

"Terrible."

Noor stared him for some time. Then she looked down. After some time she wrapped her hands around his left hand and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Everything will be fine."

He then rested his head on her head.

"InshaAllah."
