Her iddat complete week ago but still she was hesitated to go outside of her room

Khawar tried to take her out for outing but still she was afraid

She wasn't afraid of others talking but she was afraid that their talk will again bring those memories back

And she didn't wanted to remember them

She offered morning prayer and sat by window brushing her hair she put it in braid

A knock on the door made her startled

She opened the door and found no one, she was about to close the door when cought her attention

On the floor was placed a bowl full motiyon ke phool

She picked it up with it a memory which got lost in the back of her mind came in front of her like a fresh wound

Placing the bowl back from where she picked it she got up and closed her door

How can she forget about the harsh words he said to her, the words enchos in her ears

"Mujhe nahi pata Tha tum aisi ladki ho, adhi raat ko yun kisi ke kamre mein Jana aur ussey aisi baatei'n karna,"

"Agar tumne Meri frankness ko galat samjha Roshni toh usme galti tumhari hai,"

That was frankness now he is showing hamdardi

A knock again came making her realized she is still leaning her back on the close door

She turned and opened it but got froze when she the person on the door

Both were looking at each other after year, and the duration of one year changed both of them alot

Where Roshni looked more pale and has reduced weight, Affan has grown some facial hair and his eyes looked swollen red

"Narazgi mujhse Hai inn phoolon se toh nahi," he was holding the bowl of flowers

(You are angry at me not on flowers,)

"Apka aur humara aisa koi rishta nahi hai ki hum apse naraz ho'n, aur rahi baat in phoolon ki toh Hume ab yeh nahi pasand," she said and was about to close the door but Affan stopped it with his feet

(Why would I be angry at you?)

"Roshni!"

"Ji?" He couldn't get any words from his mouth,

(Yes?)

How can he? When he knows he is the one at fault

Because of him she has went through this but now nothing can bring the last year from her life or earase the memory

"I'm sorry!"

"Hume apki hamdardi nahi chahiye,"

(I don't need your apologise,)

"Roshni yeh humdardi nahi Hai, sharmindagi hai, kaash agar Maine uss raat apne........"

(I'm ashamed if that night I had....)

"Rehne dijiye woh bhi hamdardi hi hoti. Waise bhi aap se koi shikayat nahi hai Hume," he was still standing on the doorway when she turned to leave

(Let it be I don't want to talk about it,)

"Roshni main tumse mohabbat karta hoon," his words made her stopped and she again turned to face him

(I love you,)

"Kya kaha apne?" He thought she didn't heard him so he opened his mouth to repeat himself

(What did you said?)

"Roshni....."

"Hume apki hamdardi ya sharmindagi kuch nahi chahiye, aap please jaye'n yaha se."

(I don't want to hear anything, please leave,)

"Roshni please ek baar Meri baat sunlo," she crossed her arms over her chest

(Listen to me,)

"Main sharminda hoon kyuki jab us din tum mere pass ayi thi to Meri rejection ki wajah yeh thi Rohail ka rishta tumhare liye aya Tha and I thought tum uske sath khush rahogi and..." He still continue talking

(I'm ashamed because the reason behind my rejection was everyone wanted Rohail and you to get married and I also thought you'll be happy with him,......)

"Kaise? Kaise soch liya apne ki hum unke sath khush rahenge? Jab ki aap jante the ki unhe nahi apko pasand karte hain. In bataon ka koi fyada nahi Affan achha hoga aap yaha se chale jaye'n" she again tried to close the door

(How can you thought of that when you clearly knew I liked you? Let it be there is no need to talk about that so please leave,)

"Mujhe khudko explain karne ka ya galti the karne ka ek mouka toh do," he hold her hand which she quickly jerked it away from him and slapped him

(At least give me a chance to explain myself,)

"Mujhe nahi pata Tha ki apse shaks hain Jo aise kisi ke kamre mein Jake aisi baatei'n karte Hain," she repeated his words to him

(I didn't know you are this kind of boy, going to a girl's room at this time and talking to her like this.)

After so much trauma that happened in her life now she knows how to control her tears, she closed the door on his face

"Roshni! Chalo beta nashta karne," her arms were hiding her eyes

(Come let's have breakfast,)

"Dada jaan aapk kyu aye hume bula lete," Roshni got up from her bed

(Why did you bothered, you could have called me,)

"Kya Karu aap to apne kamre se bahar hi nahi aati," his words made Roshni embarrassed as she stand up and left the room with Yawer Khan

(What can I do when you didn't even step outside of your room,)

"Yeh try Karo, aaj kafi dino baad Affan ne breakfast banaya hai," Yawer put her cheese omelet in her plate

(Try this, today Affan has made the breakfast,)

Hearing his name she looked at him, who was already looking at her seated just opposite

"Woh humara omelet Khane ka Mann nahi Kar raha, hum toast lenge," she placed the omelet in Khawar's plate and picked toast

(I don't feel like eating it, I'll have toast.)

He know she has all right to be angry at him but he is not gonna give up no matter what

He made a huge mistake once when he thought she will be happy with Rohail but now when he is not gonna repeat any mistake and will do anything to win her heart,

How longer will she be angry?

Woh kehte Haina

Mohabbat mein narazgi bilkul barf ki tarah hoti hai

jitni jaldi jamti hai utni hi jaldi pighal jati hai

He smiled to himself and focused on his breakfast
