AFTER SIX YEARS!

Rizwi Mansion was silent unlike ever, no one was present in hall except Afnaan who was cutting tape and pasting balloons on the wall.

"Pta nahi wo kon si families hoti hain jaha choto ko pamper kra jata hai? Is ghar me to mujhe free ka nokar samjha jata hai?" Poor Afnaan mumbled after blowing air in a balloon

( God knows in which families youngest members are pampered? In this house, I am considered as a free servant?)

"Jaldi kar yaar, itna time thodi lagta hai" Anzala came downstairs while rolling his sleeves three-fourth and ordered Afnaan.

(Hurry up man, it doesn't take this much time)

"Agar itna time nahi lagta to aap khud kyu nahi kar lete?" Afnaan asked to Anzala who glare him, not with anger but just to show his attitude

(If it doesn't take this much time then why aren't you doing this work?)

"Main khud hi kar leta ye sab kaam lekin abhi mujhe un dono ko pick karne jana hai, to mere paas time nhi hai" Saying that Anzala saved himself from the work of decoration and Scott towards the door but he was stopped when Afnaan went to him and pounce at the keys present in his hand.

(I would have done all this work by myself but right now I have to go pick them both f them, so I don't have time)

"Un dono ko main pick kar leta hu... Wese bhi har rooz ye kaam main hi to karta hu... Aaj aapki biwi ka birthday hai to asaan kaam khud karenge aur mushkil kaam ke liye aapke paas time nhi hai!" Afnaan glare at Anzala then stepped towards the door.

(No worries! I'll pick both of them, as Always, I do this work... Today is your wife's birthday, so you suddenly remember to pick them as that's the easy work and now you do not have time for this difficult work.)

"Meri biwi hai to teri bhi to behen hai"

(she's my wife but yours sister too)

"Humne apni behen ki shadi kar di ab wo apne husband ki zimmedari hai... Meherbani kar ke mera peechha chhodiye" Saying that Afnaan scoot our from the home and Anzala smack his forehead.

(We married off my sister, now she is the responsibility of her husband... Please now let me in peace)

"Now I have to do this" looking towards the material of decoration he muttered and sighed..

It was Maizah's birthday so they were celebrating her birthday just like every year. But those six years changed many things in Rizwi Mansion Mr. Abdul Gafoor Rizwi passed away after a few days of birth of Rumi's Daughter, he wanted to see Anzala and Maizah's child too but he took that wish in grave with himself, at that time Maizah was nine months pregnant and she gave birth to a baby boy after fifteen days of Her grandfather's demise. But time is the biggest healer. No one could forget Abdul Gafoor Rizwi but the flow of life blurred the memories of past as everyone had a beautiful present and bright future. In those six years Anzala started handling business by his own, his father took retirement because he wanted to spend all his time with his grandchildren, but Asif Rizwi sometimes goes to office just to keep a check on Anzala. Adnaan didn't want to joint his family business so he started doing a job, on the other hand Afnaan was planning to join family business but after completing graduation that poor guy was working as an unpaid worker for his home.

Rumi and Naail were enjoying their family life with their two daughters.

Gul Bano and Momina became more strict with passing time but even after this much changes in their lives and lifestyle two members of this family were unchanged.

Of Course Anzala and Maizah!

After some half an hour Anzala decorate the hall, not properly just namesake then left the home as he had to bought Maizah's gift.

.

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

"Maizah get ready, Rumi and Naail must be arriving in no time and you're still sitting like this." Momina scolded Maizah and she made an angry pout.

"Badi Ammi you always bahave just like a mother-in-law, can't you behave like my TAYI (Paternal aunty)?" Maizah huffed and asked but Momina glare her.

"Sometimes I feels I'm not your mother-in-law but you're mine." Momina glare at Maizah with anger, but she was shocked to listen scolding from her daughter-in-law.

"You'll get a slap now" Gul Bano said and Maizah rolled her eyes.

"Ammi you're my mother but more than a mother-in-law" Maizah huffed while ironing the shirt of her son.

"Chudail" three Of them listened a loud voice and Momina smack her forehead.

"He won't change ever" Gul mumbled and Maizah rolled her eyes.

"Chudail Rizwi...." Anzala shouted while coming upstairs and soon he stepped in the bedroom with another call "Chudail... Can't you hear?" He complained and got an angry glare from Maizah, Momina and Gul Bano. He smiled sheepishly and took steps towards Maizah with a smile on his face, but instead of looking towards her, Anzala held her arm and pushed her on right side.

"Meri pari (My fairy)" kneeling down on floor Anzala spoke with a smile.

Gul smiled on Anzala's words but Maizah slapped his head, which Anzala returned her with 50% interest.

"Pariiiii" Anzala call lovingly while opening his arms and his small Pari (fairy) jumped out from the bed before coming in his arms.

"How is my Pari?" Anzala asked his three years old daughter after kissing her cheek. She didn't replied but wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged her father.

"Where were you Dad" She mumbled and Anzala smiled while standing up taking his daughter in his arms.

"I was busy in some work" He replied politely, and Momina caressed the head of her grand-daughter happily.

"I was missing you daddy, chhote chamu didn't buy me ice-cream when he came to pick us from school" Bisma, the little Pari (fairy) of Anzala replied with a cry face and Anzala huffed with anger.

" I'll beat him with stick" Anzala show his fake anger towards Afnaan which made Bisma happy and the little girl smiled wholeheartedly

"Really dad? Will you beat him?" Anzala nodded on his daughters demand and she giggle after placing her hand on her mouth.

"Aww.. meri Pari haste huye kitni pyaari lagti hai apni maa par to bilkul bhi nhi gayi..." Anzala kissed his daughter's cheek and Maizah made a fake cry face.

(Aww... my fairy looks so cute while smiling, she doesn't resembles her mother, that's why she is so beautiful)

"Where is your chhote chamu? Summon him, I'll beat him... How can he refuse to buy ice-cream for my Pari" Anzala again showed his fake anger and Maizah glare him because chhote chamu was no one else but Maizah's youngest brother Afnaan.

"Do these things later, for now get ready" Momina and Gul Bano both scolded both of them and Maizah nodded but Anzala rolled his eyes.

"No matter how much effort you put in getting ready you're chudail and you'll always be chudail" Anzala again tease Maizah and Gul smack her forehead.

"Bhabhi they both are going to start again" Gul huffed and Momina nodded, both the ladies moved towards the door of room to get ready for party but they were stopped by a voice.

"Ammi, Badi Ammi wait" they both turned towards Maizah and she smiled whilst lifting the well ironed clothes of her children.

"Ammi take this and make Danish wear this... And Badi Ammi you make Bisma ready... I don't have time to get them ready... I have many works" Ordering both of them Maizah handover them clothes of her children and turned towards her cupboard, to drew out her clothes.

"I'm going to take shower" Maizah mumbled in hurry

"Listen chudail, I don't have time, so take shower on my behalf too" Anzala Said to annoy her and Maizah throw a glare at him but before she could reply anything to her husband she noticed both ladies standard on the same place holding clothes of kids in their hands.

"Ammi... Badi Ammi you both are still standing here? Go fast... Your grandchildren need you" Saying that Maizah entered in the bathroom.

Poor Momina and Gul Bano were watching how they got order from Maizah...

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

"Happy birthday" Everyone wished Maizah. she cut the cake and received gifts from family members.

"Happy birthday mumma" both the kids shouted in unison and Anzala passed a gift box to them which they passed to their mother.

"Thankyou" Maizah said happily and started opening the gifts like a small, curious child.

"Anzu tu mere liye kuch nhi laya kya?" Maizah asked and Anzala nodded with a big smile.

(Anzu haven't you bring anything for me?)

"order kar diya tha, aane wala hai tera gift" Anzala replied and Maizah nodded while opening the other gifts, all the elders were gawking at her because no one could say that she was the mother of two children, even she was behaving more childish than her own children.

(I've already ordered, it must be arriving in no time)

In the time being a big gift box arrived in Rizwi Mansion, and every eye become wide. Anzala received the gift. The size of box was so big that three delivery boys were handling that.

"Dekh chudail tera gift" Anzala pointed out towards the box, wrapped with coloured paper.

(see chudail, its your gift)

"Anzuuuuu... Itna bada gift!" Maizah exclaimed. Everyone was left open-mouthed.

(Anzuuuuu... This much big gift)

"Learn something from Anzala... First of all you don't even remember my birthday, and by chance if remember that then what did you had gift me? That small perfume and a red rose!" Rumi show her anger to Naail and he looked towards Anzala with wide eyes.

"Dude please don't set high standards for me by giving these great gifts" Naail scolds Anzala in friendli manner and Maizah went to open the big gift box.

"Anzala what is this?" Maizah asked while trying to open that. She was on the ninth cloud to get such a big gift.

"Special gift only for my wife" Anzala said lovingly and Afnaan cleared his throat on which he got a glare from Anzala.

"Help me" Maizah demanded and Anzala went ahead. Both the husband wife were trying to open the well wrapped paper. Maizah looked Towards him with a smiled and leaned towards his ear. "I love you so much" she whispered lovingly and Anzala smiled.

"I too love you, that's why I'm giving you this gift." Anzala whispered back in her ear and she finally unwrapped the box.

"Anzalaaaaa" Maizah mumbled while watching the huge gift, her eyes were ready to pop out from sockets, as so all the other family members present in the hall of Rizwi Mansion.

That was the rarest gift ever...

No husband had given such gift to her wife and no wife could imagine to receive such gift...

But they were Anzala and Maizah, how could they behave like a normal married couple?

"Washing Machine!" Rumi mumbled and everyone looked towards Anzala "Who gives washing machine to his wife as a birthday gift?" Maizah asked angrily and he smiled like he did a great job.

"Tune kaha tha na washing machine theek se kaam nahi kar rahi, to main nayi le aaya, ab din raat araam se kapde dhoti rehna." Maizah huffed and starting hitting his arm abruptly, and all the family members started laughing at them.

(You're saying that the washing machine is not working properly, so the new one is here! Now you can Wash the clothes all round of clock)

"Main kya koi dhobi hu Jo dun raat kapde dhoti rahungi?" Maizah asked with anger and Anzala shrugged playfully.

(Am I a washer woman that I would wash the clothes all round of clock?)

"Rumi you were saying that our fridge is not working properly... I'll gift you one on your birthday" Naail said in teasing way and Rumi blinked two thee times, her jaw was hanging down like an idiot

"Naail" she only managed to say that

"I'm learning from your brother... Thanks for such a lovely lesson bro" Naail said the first part to Rumi and second part was for Anzala,both of them laughted and their wives glare them.

"Anzala you're spoiling my husband too" Rumi scolded Anzala but Naail raised his brow..

"Aren't you feeling good that I'm learning from your brother?" Naail teased her and everyone laughed..

"Ye kesa gift diya hai tumne meri beti ko?" Aasif asked in scolding way just to make her mood better, but he was also smiling.

(What gift have you given to my daughter?)

"Chhote abbu aapki beti ko hi fayda hai is gift se" Anzala said to tease Maizah and she smirked.

(Chhote abbu this gift is for your daughters betterment)

"Don't worry abbu, his birthday is after thirteen days, I'll also give him a useful gift" Maizah smirked and Anzala also smirked while opening his mouth to say something but suddenly.

"Chamuuuuuu" Danish and Bisma yelled happily and every gaze went towards the door.

A handsome, muscular figure was standing there lifting a handbag in left hand and a big suitcase in other hand.

He was Adnaan...

"Yaar... Either call me chachu or call me Mamu, but please do not call me Chamu" Adnaan pleaded both of them, but they ignored and ran towards Adnaan while shouting "Chamu''

"Adnaan..." Gul Bano open her arms to hug her son whom with she was meeting After six months.

"Ammi, I was missing you" Adnaan hugged his mother and both son and mother duo felt happy.

Adnaan was living in Hyderabad for his job, he didn't want to join his family business and when he got a good offer he decided to shift to other state, though no one was agree to send him away from home but his stubbornness was at peek so he did what he wanted to do.

"Kitna kamzor ho gya hai mera bachcha" Gul Bano uttered the most common dialogue of Indian mothers and Adnaan looked towards his ownself.

(My son is becoming weak)

"Ammi even he is looking better than before" Afnaan said after patting at the muscular Arms of Adnaan.

"Yeah Ammi, I have started body building and you're saying I'm looking weak" Adnaan defend his condition but Gul Bano felt disappointed.

Adnaan was busy in meeting everyone, none of them remembered about Maizah and Anzala's argument, birthday gift or anything else..

But Rizwi family spent a good time together.

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

"Dad when will you do that prank with mummy?" Danish asked Anzala because both the son and father due were planning to play a prank on Maizah, that was their routine. Maizah and Anzala didn't get their children but crime partners. Gul And Momina were frustrated because earlier they had only two big kids who use to fight everyday but then they got two more little kids in home.

"Danish you're still awake!" Maizah come in the bedroom and asked her son then glare Anzala for the birthday gift.

"Mumma I'm not sleepy" Danish replied and Maizah placed their toys at correct place.

"Go to Nani's room and sleep now" Saying that Maizah point out towards the open door and Danish run our from the room. They both kids were more close to their grandparents than their parents ie, Anzala and Maizah.

"Oo chudail... Baat sun" Anzala demanded while sitting on bed and Maizah glare him while closing the door of room

(Hey witch.. Listen)

"Bhaad me ja" mumbling the same she went to the bed and hit him with pillow.

(Go to hell)

"Sun to" Holding her arm he said and she pushed him but Anzala pulled her forcefully.

(At least Listen)

"Itnaaa gussaaa" He asked in teasing way and Maizah punched his arm.

(So much anger)

"Aaahhh... Yaar you're becoming pehelwaan (body builder) day by day" Anzala groaned while rubbing his arm.

"Should I be happy?" Maizah asked and Anzala pulled her towards himself, she tried to free herself but he wrapped his arms around her waist.

"You want gift?" Anzala asked in whispered

"No" she huffed but Anzala kissed her cheek and she made a pout while turning her head towards him

"Anzu Tu bohot bura hai" she fake cried but he smiled

(You're very bad)

"Itna bhi bura nahi hu" Whispering back he drew out a box which was placed under the pillow.

"Now what is this?" Maizah asked with anger and Anzala smiled.

"See by yourself" saying that he stood up from bed and disappeared in washroom, Maizah made an unpleasant face and place the box on the side table before laying down on her side.

"Idiot... I'm not going to become fool one more time" mumbling the same she shut her eyes and at the same time Anzala came out from the washroom.

"Haven't you like the gift?" Anzala asked and Maizah ignored, he sat down beside her and pinched her cheek.

"Chudail I know you're not sleeping" He whispered and she pushed his hands away from herself

"Shut up and lemme sleep" she mumbled with anger and Anzala glare at her with fake anger.

"Aaj kal tere nakhre bohot bad rahe hai." He complained

(Now a days your tantrums are increasing very much)

"Tujhe kya? Bade ya kam ho.. Tu konsa mere nakhre dekhta hai" she mumbled and pushed his hand away from her arm.

(So what? either my tantrums would increase or decrease, it won't effect you in any way)

Anzala silently moved back and open the box. Maizah thought that he won't disturb her again but soon she felt a cold metallic thing touching her left wrist. She suddenly open her eyes to found her husband making her wear a gold bracelet.

"Happy birthday" Anzala wished her and lay down on his place, Maizah smiled while looking towards the bracelet, she wanted that bracelet since one month but Anzala was refusing her then she understands the reason.

"Anzu.." She looked towards him and he hummed in half sleeping state.

"I love you.. I love you.. Love you so much" She hugged her husband and Anzala only adjusted his chin on her shoulder.

"Hmm... I know" He mumbled and Maizah kissed his cheek giving him smile. Wrapping his arms around her waist he kissed her forehead and she placed her head on his upper arm.

"Why you didn't give this to me when everyone was giving me gifts?" she asked after lifting her head and Anzala smiled.

"Because it's not for show off" He replied simply and Maizah again rest her head on his arm.

"I love you" She muttered with a smile and Anzala smiled more.

"I love my Pari more" He replied with close eyes and Maizah rolled her eyes before shifting backwards and mumbling "Bhaad me ja" (go to hell)

"I'm already in... Since I have get married" After a defeated sigh Anzala muttered and Maizah huffed.

"Anzzuuuuuu...." and Anzala received a token of love from his lovely wife which flew away his slumber and they both spent next few hours whilst feeling each other's love.

Ahem.. Not to forget, they had their own way of love which includes some special romance using sharp nails, hair pulling, pillow fighting and few more techniques.

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

"Ammi stop it..." Adnaan exclaimed when his mother placed one more paratha in his plate.

"Eat one more" Momina scolded him while pouring juice in the glass.

"Ammi.. Badi Ammi.. I can't eat anymore, I'm already full" Adnaan placed his hand in his tummy while saying so but the ladies ignored and placed another paratha on his plate.

"Abbu, bade abbu you both please stop them.. I can't eat so much" Adnaan requested and both the old men looked towards each other then laughed as they both knew they couldn't do anything in front of their wives.

"His appetite is decreased..." Momina mumbled and Gul Bano nodded sadly.

"What do you eat in breakfast?" Maizah asked her brother whilst giving breakfast to Anzala and her children.

"Sandwich or burger.... I usually do breakfast in office..." Adnaan replied and picked Bisma in his lap, he started giving her small morsels and she smiled happily because her chamu was back after 6 months.

"Aasif" Gul Bano called in slow voice

"Hmm..."

"Call Rushda and say her that now it's time to do their marriage... For how long Adnaan will live alone there? Otherwise also this is suitable age to get married" Gul Bano blast a bomb on Adnaan's head, he suddenly looked up at his father who was nodding while drawing out his mobile from his pocket to call Rushda who was Sara's mother.

"What? Wait.... What do you mean Ammi? And how can you think that I'll marry to that chuhiya?" Adnaan asked his mother and stood up from his place.

"Shadi to tumhari Sara se hi hogi... Apna wada yaad hai na? Tum us wade ko tood nhi sakte" Aasif said and Adnaan closed his eyes while holding his forehead, he was cursing himself remembering the day when he made that promise.

(You'll get married to Sara only. Have you forget about your promise? You can't back off from your words)

"But Abbu..." Adnaan try to say something but Aasif show his hand to stop him

"There isn't any room for if and but" Saying that Aasif dialled his sister's number to talk about Adnaan and Sara's marriage.
