"Ahem Ahem..." Anzala was startled when listened that fake cleaning of throat when he was combing his hair in his room.

"What?" He asked to his cousin brother Nabeel who was coming to his room.

"Where are you going?" He asked and Anzala raised his brown questioning way.

"What do you think... After wearing these formals, and combing my hair like gentle man where can I go?" Anzala asked and his cousin smirk.

"I thought you are going on a romantic date with your soon to be wife." Nabeel smirked and Anzala rolled his eyes.

"Romantic Date... With Mazi.. No way" Anzala said in duh tone, at the same time Maizah stepped in his room.

"Anzala bade abbu is saying you to bring the papers which he had given you yesterday" Maizah informed and turned to go but she was stopped by a sound.

''Oh no" Anzala smacked his forehead

"what happened?" she asked. confused.

"Mazi yaar I forget to study those papers." he said and started drawing out those papers.

"Now get ready to eat scolding in breakfast" Maizah rolled her eyes.

"Very good Anzala bhai, now you are going to get a warm welcome in office" Anzala glare Nabeel who was still present in the room.

"Shut up Nabeel, I was tired so I slept and forget to study those papers" Anzala burst out with frustration and his cousin smirked.

"Ohh.. Really?" Anzala nodded on that question which was seems like a taunt

"okay if you're saying then I am believing on you but I'll not inform Rashid Mamu that you were in Maizah's room" Nabeel said with a mischievous smile on his face and Maizah's eyes become wide

"What?" Anzala and Maizah both exclaimed in unison.

"Wh... Who told you?" Anzala asked trying to be confident but couldn't

"Ahem Ahem... When you were going in her room with the mugs of tea or maybe coffee at that time I was sitting in the guest room playing ludo with Afnaan and when you come out of her room I was still in guest room with Sara, Adnaan and Afnaan." Nabeel informed and they both looked at each other.

"Nabeel.." Maizah was saying something when he smirked

"It's okay.. It's okay... I can understand you are going to get married, even I was suggesting Anzala to take you on date." Maizah and Anzala looked at each other and glare Nabeel.

"Opps... I'm sorry.. I'm going and don't worry I won't tell this to anyone" saying that he scoot out from the room and Maizah sighed.

"Anzalaaaaa..." She looked at him with defeated face

"Maziiiiiiiii"

"There isn't any privacy in this home, everyone knows about our each and every minute" Maizah said and turned to go out from the room but stopped when her arm was catched by Anzala, whose face was holding a smirk. He suddenly pulled her and she collided with his chest.

"Aahhh.. Anzala..." She utter without even realising but he held her tightly with one arm around her waist.

"Does my wife want privacy?" Anzala smirked and her eyes grew up big after a gasp left from her mouth

"Are you mad? What are you saying?" she asked and turned her head to saw of someone was coming or not.

Because that was Rizwi Mansion... Anyone could appear from anywhere magically, without any warning

"No, I'm not mad!" He replied with a smile.

"Anzala... Leave me" she glared him

"What if I won't?" He smirked leaning towards her cheek to kiss her but suddenly..

"Maizah... Maizah come Fast" that was a loud call from Momina and Anzala rolled his eyes.

"Go, I think now a days Ammi is happy with you" He left her right then and she smiled.

"Yeah, she is behaving just like before, but she is still strict with me." Maizah said with a pout and Anzala smile

"Go now otherwise your mother-in-law will become angry, and let's see what is hidden in these papars!" she nodded and run out from the room, but her pale face suddenly turned to red as she remembered about his teasing.

================

"Rumi aapi..." Afnaan shouted loudly on breakfast table and everyone looked at the door from where Rumi was entering with her beautiful smile.

"Rumi Aapiiiiiii... I was missing you" Anzala was the first one who went to her and held her hand to take her on breakfast table. She greeted everyone and specially hugged her grandfather.

"It's my brother's marriage, I'll stay here till Marriage." Maizah made a pout on that statement.

"Rumi aapi... You have proved that I'm just your cousin" Maizah said like an offended brat.

"Hasn't Naail come with you?" Momina asked and Rumi shook her head after making an unpleasant face.

"He has to go office so he drop me outside the home" Rumi informed and picked a toast from the plate everyone nodded

"Rumi aapi, your ring is looking beautiful. Gift from Husband?" Maizah said with a smile and asked the last part in teasing way

"Huh.. Husband.. Such a workaholic man he is! If it would be possible for him, he shift his office in bedroom." Rumi replied in whisper and Maizah giggled.

"Really?" Maizah asked and Rumi shook her head with a expressionless face.

"no I'm just trying to finding out some topic to gossip... Yaar if I'm saying that he is a workaholic then he is..." Rumi informed and Maizah open her mouth to say something but stopped by a voice

''What you both sisters are talking?" Gul asked and they both shook her head with a smile and again start to talk to each other without bothering about the presence of others.

"Ammi I'm going" Anzala said to his mother and made himself stand.

"Anzala... Have you forget about the plan of shopping?" Maizah asked suddenly and his eyes become wide.

"Hmm... I completely forgot about that" Anzala replied sheepishly and Maizah made an innocent face.

"You along with Sara and Rumi aapi go together for shopping. I'm not going with you to lift your shopping bags" Anzala replied and Maizah glare him.

"You are coming with us, it's final'' Maizah ordered him and he rolled, his eyes.

" I won't come... Chudail"

" why" she huffed

"Maybe I'll forget about shopping" Anzala shrugged arrogantly before taking step towards the door.

"They both started again" Momina smack her forehead while mumbling the same

"You do dare to forget about shopping I'll kill you Mr. Anzala Rashid Rizwi" Maizah said loudly after placing her both hands on her waist and Anzala bounced his bike keys in air then catch them just to express that he was ignoring her.

"Anzalaaa... You have to come to take me for shopping" Maizah said while throwing a boiled egg on him and everyone laughed on her weapon.

"Ohh.. Hello.. I'm not your servant. I won't come, I still remember shopping of Rumi aapi's marriage, for god sake yaar it's hardly fifteen days of Rumi Aapi's marriage and you want to do shopping again." Anzala said after shrugging his shoulder.

"Dada abbu I'm telling you one day our business will suffer due to her shopping and wasting money" Maizah glare him and again throw a boiled egg on him after making an angry as well as frustrated face, but Anzala grabbed that egg.

"Umm... Pass salt too, plain egg is not tasting good" Clenching his nose after biting the same egg Anzala said and everyone giggles on their cat fight.

"Dada abbu... Have you listen, your dear Grandson is refusing to take us out for shopping" Maizah complained and all the members present in the dining area laughed on the scene, except Abdul Gafoor.

"Anzala... Beta shadi ek hi baar hoti hai" Abdul Gafoor said and all the others nodded but suddenly

(Anzala dear Marriage take place only once)

"Par hamari to dursi baar ho rahi hai na.." Anzala unthought out and cousins and phuppo (Daughters of Abdul Gafoor) with shocked expression.

(But its our second time)

"What does it mean abbu ji?" Anzala's Phuppo asked with shocked expressions.

"ohhooo.. Phuppo.. Why are you focusing on both of them they are like jokers of this home." Adnaan said and Rumi nodded

"But still..." that time Rumi didn't let anyone complete.

"Phuppo once in childhood we did their marriage while playing... She was saying that.. Am I right Maizah.." Rumi made a story and asked the last part on which Maizah and Anzala both nodded with a fake smile.

"Now stop this useless discussion" Rashid said loudly and all the others nodded.

"Anzala you take Maizah, Sara and Rumi for shopping. No need to go office we will handle everything" Rashid ordered making Maizah happy but Anzala was making an unpleasant face by then

"Okay" Anzala said with disappointment

"Rumi aapi iron my clothes" Anzala ordered and Rumi looked at her mother

"Ammi... Am I coming here after marriage to iron his clothes?" Rumi asked with disappointment

"Maizah beta you do iron his clothes" Momina ordered lovingly and Maizah's eyed become wide

"Why me? Can't he iron his clothes himself?" she asked like a small girl

"if you won't iron my clothes then I won't take you with me for shopping" Anzala raised his brow with that statement and Maizah glare him but suddenly.

"Anzala if you don't wanna take her for shopping then I'll take her with me" That was the sound which made Anzala's blood pressure high in a single moment.

'Ye manhus awaaz usi manhus insaan ki hai jisne meri zindagi azaab banai hui hai' Anzala said to himself and turned to saw the person who was indeed Dayim.

( this unpleasant voice belongs to the same jinx who had already make my

Life like a damnation)

"Bhai... Bhabhiii" Gul moved towards Dayim's parents and Maizah smirked looking at Anzala.

"Hii Dayim bhai... I'm requesting Anzala but he is saying that he won't take me for shopping" Maizah complaint and Anzala glare her.

'She is my wife but not leaving a single chance of making me jealous " Anzala said to himself and tried to calm himself down

" Don't worry, if you wanna go for shopping then I'll take you with me, you don't have to take anyone's favour until Dayim is with you" Dayim said with a smirk making Anzala red in anger.

" Now why are you wasting your and my time. Get ready and come fast. Let's go for shopping" Anzala scolded Maizah making her and Dayim understood the reason of him change in statement

But she was Maizah, who was from those who knows how to take revenge on the correct time.

"Ohh.. You are coming with us.. But Anzala if you don't wanna come then leave it. Dayim bhaiii.. Will you take us for shopping?" Maizah said all those things so innocently as if all the innocence of this whole world come inside her, but Anzala was glaring her with deadly gaze.

" What the f*ck" Anzala mumbled looking at Dayim who was talking to others.

"Anzala..." Maizah made herself stand just beside him with a smirk tucked on her lips.

"Mazi don't test my patience!" He glare her and whispered angrily grinding his teath but holding a fake smile on his face.

"You forced me to do so" She flutter her lashed quickly and move back to the dining table with a jumping moment like a small girl.

After some more blood boiling session it was decided that Anzala and Dayim both would took girls for shopping.

===============

''What are you doing here at this time?" He asked, when she was standing on terrace at midnight. She was covered with a shawl and holding a mug of coffee in her hand.

" I also can ask the same question to you? What are you doing here?" she asked in reply of his question

"It's not my answer" He replied and took step forward her, making her smile but nervous too.

"It's not my answer too" He shrugged and rest his back with the railings of boundaries of terrace.

"I'm watching stars" Maizah replied and he smiled.

"Maizah" that was a deep call.

"Hmm"

"Ar.. are you happy?" He asked and she narrowed her eyes while taking a sip of her coffee

"In which context you are asking this Dayim bhai?" she asked and Dayim passed a small smile or its better to identify that as a smirk

"You already know about which context I am asking this question" Dayim replied and Maizah felt uncomfortable but she sighed and looked straight in his eyes with her full confidence

"Why are you asking?" Maizah asked and Dayim keep watching her for a good moment, then shift his gaze on the moon which was showing a 'C' shape in the sky.

"Maizah don't take me wrong... I always pull Anzala's leg.. To be honest I love to do all these things with him but right now I'm in no mood to talk about anything useless, neither I'm saying anything like a joke." Dayim said very seriously and Maizah made herself stand with straight back.

"Dayim bhai why are you giving this much explanations? Say directly what do you wanna say!" she said and again sipped the hot coffee.

"Hmm... So.. To be honest Maizah I don't like Anzala for you. I don't know what your family is thinking about this relationship and why you two got agree for this marriage but in my eyes this match is a big mismatch" Dayim said very seriously and Maizah was shocked to listen that, she was feeling highly uncomfortable

"Dayim bhai,.. It.. Its quite late now... I'm going to sleep" Saying that Maizah took step towards the stairs but stopped in between.

"Have you open my gifts?" Dayim asked and Maizah gulped on the deepness of his voice.

"Yeah.. I like that... Thank for the gift" saying that without making eye contact. she immediately left him alone on the terrace.

"Why Dayim bhai is behaving like this?" she mumbled with madly beating heart and closed the door of her room.

After few moments she open her cupboard and drew out the gift which was given by Dayim.

She was going to open that when her mobile beeped.

That was Dayim's message.

Maizah I really want good for you. Try to understand yaar, don't take me wrong but Anzala and you both have personality clash. Today in mall I was noticing both of you. Whenever you were placed your choice in front of him he had completely denied. How will you live your whole life with him together!

That was Dayim's message which gave tention to Maizah

Dayim bhai... Plz don't think about me and Anzala. We are fine together

She reply the text and placed her mobile on bed and throw the gifts in the cupboard carelessly.
