Arisha's pov
"Toh aap mujhe dobara kabhi nahi dekh paenge" I said it to scare him a little,and to make him change his decision obviously,
"What? " Haadi asked,
I knew i 'll get this reaction
"What did you just say? " He asked again.
I turned to him, changing my expression to straight face.
"You heard that.. "
"Arisha are you crazy or what? " He said grabbing my shoulders.
"No no, Mr haadi malik, you are crazy, jo aapko itni si baat samajh nahi aa rahi ki Shiza galat nahi hai"
I saw his face expression changing again to that cold one.
"Tum ghar jao filhaal, it's quite late,
Driver will drop you" He said and turned back, walking towards the sofa..
I kept looking at him.
I don't understand why this guy is behaving like this.
Why is he being so difficult,
And, why the hell is he being so stubborn.
Urghhh.
Itni bhi koi badi baat nahi hai jitna ye react kar rahe hai..
Come on arisha, do it for Shiza..
Okay fine..
Then, I slowly went near the sofa,
And sat beside him.
He was quiet, so do I.
I kept my head on his shoulder,
And took his hand in mine,
I now noticed he has got dressing done on his hand where he got cut in the evening.
God, this man!!!!
Few minutes passed,
"I am sorry" He said rubbing his forehead.
"Hmm? "
"I know Mujhe tum par chillana nahi chaiye tha.. "
"It's okay" I replied making circles on his arm with my fingers.
"Ek ..baat bolu ? " I asked after a few moments of silence.
"Hmm.. " He hummed.
"Shiza ko khala ke pas na bheje na " I said.
"I don't wanna talk about this arisha please.. " He said

"But you have to.. " I said sitting straight
"Aap chaho ya na chaho, but you have to talk about this.. Aap usko galat nahi samjh sakte, aur na hi aap usko yaha se aese dur bhej sakte hai"
"Listen, ye galat hai.. Usne hum sab se chhup ke.. She was meeting that guy, wo kisi problem mein bhi padh sakti thi..why don't you understand" He said frustrated.
"Lekin aesa kuch hua toh nahi na, Aur Agar wo galat hai, toh aap aur mai bhi toh galat hai.. Hamare baare me bhi toh bohot baad me sabko pata chala.. "
"Don't compare it to us.. "
"But Why? Agar wo galat hai toh aap bhi galat hai.. Aur agar aap sahi hai, toh wo galat kaise ho sakti hai haadi"
I said it all in a breathe.
He was again silent.
"Look, I know aap bhai ho, aapke liye its not easy to admit that your sister loves someone.. But uska point of view bhi toh samjhe.. "
"Kya point of view huh? Hum usko bacchi samajhte rahe aj tak... Aur achanak se, we get to know that she wants to get married to that.. "
"Ayaan.. " I completed his sentence
"Yeah whatever his name is.. " He said, "usko toh mai jaan se hi na maar du, himmat kaise hui uski"
"Wo aise hi koi nahi hai, alizeh ka bhai hai, and you know him and his family very well.. " I told
"So what.. It doesn't give him the right to make his eyes on my sister"
"Haadi just think about it for a second, us bande mein aur uski family mein koi problem nahi hai, and your sister likes him too.. Aur aaj nahi toh kal, You have to find a man for Shiza, so why not someone of her choice"

I saw his face expression Softening,
Uff Allah finally..
"Abhi aapko kuch samajh bhi aa raha hai, ya mujhe aur bolna padega" I asked rolling my eyes.
"Haadi.. " I shake him by his arm, when I didn't got a reply.
"Accha..I will see" He said finally.
"Allah ka shukr" I thanked Allah..
"Abhi uthein.. Aur mujhe wapas chorh ke aaye... Hania akeli hai wahaa" I said standing up..
I pulled him to stand up,
"Aur please haan, shiza bohot pareshan hai.. Allah ke vaaste usse jakr baat kar lein.. Waise usko good news khud de ke aati hu"
I said walking out,
"Kaisi good news? " He asked
"Ya Allah.. Yahi ki aap maan gae"
"I said, I'll see.. I haven't decided any thing yet"
"Haadi come on, skip the drama now"
"Accha, chalo let me drop you first"

I was at my friends place when I got a call from haadi bhai.
It was 8 in the morning, I quickly picked the call
"Bhai? "
"Listen arsam, I want you in office by 8:30 " He ordered.
"Bhai.. Sunein toh.. Itni jaldi.. Sab khairiyat toh hai na"
"Tum aao, mai batata hu"
He quickly hanged up the call.
When I went inside the office, I saw he was sitting quiet, I could sense something is wrong.
"Jee bhai, sab khairiyat" I asked
"Hmm.. Aao, tum baitho"
"Aapne aese, bulaya.. I mean.. "
"Arsam, tumhe wo ayaan yaad hai, alizeh ka bhai"
Huh, usko kaise bhool sakta hu mai.
My face become cold on the bare mention of that idiot,
"Haan, kyun? "
"Kaisa banda hai wo, I mean tumhari baat hui hogi usse, you guys are of same age"
"Mai kyun usse baat karunga, meri koi baat na hui usse kabhi.. Aap pooch kyun rahe hai, ye to btae "
"Wo aur Shiza, ek dusre ko pasand karte hai" He said,
What? Shiza? I mean Shiza?
"Bhai aapko galatfehmi hui hogi, ayaan toh h... "
"Shiza ne mujhe khud kaha hai ye" He said before I could complete.
Oh..
Am I happy? But why the hell am I happy on this..
But Shiza? How can this be possible.
How can he lay his eyes on my sister...
" Toh.. Abhi... Abhi kya karna hai, Mom Dad ko pata hai ye baat? "
"Nahi, filhaal toh nahi pata.. Aur unko na pata chale isi wajah se maine tumhe yaha bulaya hai"
"Oh.. Accha.. Aap kya karne ki soch rahe hai? Don't tell me you are trying to fix them up"
"Ayaan me koi burai nahi hai waise, accha ladka hai, acchi family se hai, it's just that, i was not expecting this to happen"
"But bhai... "
"I have called him, he will be here any minute, tum bhi mil lo usse"

As such I expect that it will need a lot of polish to get it to its final form, but for now I hope to keep up with NaNoWriMo and get something on the page. Until then I welcome comments and constructive criticism. Thanks for reading.
