●CONVINCING●

Zia's POV :

It was the morning time.

I was getting ready for the school. Just then Hafsah came in my room and call me for breakfast.

I hummed and started going downstairs.

I sit at my place and greeted everyone.

Now everyone's attention turn towards me and they got silent suddenly.

I looked at everyone confused. Just then I saw Hamdan giving me teasing look.

I raised my eyebrow for the reaction.

Now Mumma turn towards me and asked

"Beta tumhare school ke holidays kab se hai??"

"Mumma abhi to 3 din or school Jana hai. Phir holidays hai".

I replied to her.

Then papa said to me

"Beta ab hum chahte hai ki tum shadi kar lo".

Papa said throwing bomb towards me.

I got startled first, I straightened myself and said

"Papa ye ek dum shadi ka topic kaha se aa gya".

This time mumma said

"Its not sudden zia. We are convincing you for more than 1 year for your marriage".

"And I m not convinced yet. Why are you all in so hurry for me to get married".

I complained them. Now Phuppi said

"Beta, we are not in a hurry. We are just saying you to at least have a look on your proposal. They are good people".

My brows furrowed at this revelation. I asked them

"So you guys again got a proposal that's why you started convincing me".

I asked them getting disbelief.

"Beta hum tumse nhi Puchte agar Hume ladke wale pasand nhi aate".

Phuppi said to me.

"Phuppi mujhe ladke ke ghar walo se shadi nhi Karni hai".

I said them getting irritated.

Now bhabhi said

"Zia, we are saying the same thing that first of all meet that guy and then decide anything".

I looked at them getting annoyed. They are still stuck at the same thing.

Before I could say anything

Mumma's phone ring. She picked up the call and greeted the person on the call.

We were looking at her reaction who was getting confused first and then the big smile came on her face. She said

"Hn faiza ye to bohot acchi baat hai. Me bhi bus tumhe thodi der me call karke batati hu final unko bulane ka."

Now we got understand that it was the call of faiza Aunty who was telling something to mumma.

But whom is she inviting home

and why??

Then she disconnected the call and turn towards us and said

"Faiza ki call thi wo bol rhi hai ki ladke wale puch rhe hai ki kab aana hai".

"Aap log bataye ki ab kab Bulao unhe??".

She asked everyone. Now everyone was looking at me.

I stood up from my seat and said

"Aap logo ko jo karna hai Karein. Me jaa rhi hu school".

I told them and picked up my keys and purse and went outside the house.

I started my car and leaves for the school.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

After coming back from the school.

I was seating on the sofa in the living room when Hafsah came excitedly and hugged me.

"Appi aapko dekhne ladke wale kal aa rhe hai".

She said to me making froze at my place.

I got shocked by my family members. I told them to do whatever they want and they actually invited that boy's family for my proposal.

Now I am literally cursing myself to say that.

I stood up from my seat and went into kitchen where mumma, phuppi and bhabhi was working.

I entered the kitchen to see all new dinner sets and cutlery items were placed and mumma was cooking something special for so called ladke wale.

I got disbelieved and said to them

"Mumma aap logo ne bula bhi liya un logo ko".

"Tum hi to bol ke gyi thi ki jo karna hai karo".

Mumma said casually shrugging her shoulders.

I was taken aback by her actions.

"Aese to mene bohot si cheeze kahi thi jo aapne suni nhi ".

I said with the forced smile.

Now she turning towards me "ab jo hona tha ho gya. Kal ke liye ek accha sa dress nikal lo. Or kal school nhi jaogi tum".

"Mumma you already know that exams are going on in the school. Then also you are saying to take a leave tomorrow ".

I replied her irritated.

"So what?? You are teacher there not student that you cant take a leave for 1 day".

She said to me sternly making me silent.

I sighed and rushed in my room.

After reaching in my room, I lay on bed get exhausted from today.

So many thoughts get rushed in my mind.

What if the doesn't treat me well??

What if he left me??

What if he is a toxic guy??

"Think positive zia. Think positive".

I said to myself and closed my eyes.

Soon my eyelids got heavy due to exhaustion and sleep drifted me.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

It was the evening time.

I stirred in my sleep when Hafsah came to wake me up.

I sat up on the bed and looked around while yawning. I checked the time when it was 7'o clock.

I haven't even changed my clothes after returning from school.

Hafsah came and started shuffling my clothes in the wardrobe.

I asked "hafsah kya kar rhi ho mere wardrobe me??".

She said "appi mumma ne bola hai ki Aapki acchi si dress nikal du kal ke liye".

I got froze for some time. Then the realization hits me.

Some people are coming for my proposal tomorrow and the flashback of the morning rushed over me.

I came out of the trance listening hafsah's voice.

"Appi, me puch rhi hu ki aap ye wali dress pehengi kya??"

She asked me showing a heavy embroided dress.

"Itni heavy dress kyu pehenna hai?? Shadi nhi hai meri!!".

I told her and went towards my wardrobe. She shifted a little from there giving me space to took out my clothes.

I took a plain white kurta and churidar pajama with the with net dupatta.


Hafsah scrunch her nose at my choice and complained

"Appi itna simple suit bhi mat pehno. Mumma ne bola tha kuch heavy dress nikalne ka".

I said "ye bhi acchi dress hai. Me yahi pehnungi kal. Jisko pasand karna ha isme hi karein ".

Se sighed and then I went into the washroom to get freshen up.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Time had passed and now it was the time for dinner.

Papa and mehraj bhai hadn't come from the office yet.

I was sitting in the living room and scrolling through my phone when Hamdan came collapsed beside Hafsah. I was sitting in front of them.

He showed something to Hafsah and her eyes got wide. Then she looked at me with a mischievous smile.

I got confused by her reaction.
The curiosity dawned upon me and I raised my eyebrow at them.

They both looked at each and then looked at me with a wide grin.

They both came and then sit the either sides of me.

Then Hamdan asked me "guess what I brought??

"What??" I asked casually.

Then he showed me his phone saying

"I brought the picture of Rayyan shirazi".

I narrowed my eyes looking at picture in which the boy was standing while leaning against his car.

I said "banda toh hot hai".

Their eyes got wide.

Then I asked him "waise kon Rayyan shirazi??".

Hamdan and Hafsah looked at each other and give me a smirk.

Then Hamdan said "tum ne pehchana nhi??

Yahi to hai wo jinka rishta kal aa rha hai tumhare liye".

I got frozen at place. My face turn into the darker shade of red.

Just then papa and mehraj bhai came home. Hamdan and hafsah greeted them but I was still sitting there unaware of my surrounding staring at a same place.

Mehraj bhai raised his eyebrow looking at me and then asked hafsah

"Isko kya hua?? Bhoot dekh liya kya??"

Then he snapped his fingers in front of my eyes.

I came back from my trance. I quickly stood up from my seat and looked at papa and mehraj bhai who was giving me a suspicious look.

I quickly greeted them and without looking back I quickly ran towards my room.

Now I can hear them laughing.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

We all had our dinner and everyone are now retired to their rooms.

I came in my room, wear my night dress and after my skincare routine I quickly jumped in my bed beside Hafsah.

Hafsah and I have separate rooms but we sleep together because we got a bit of scary vibe at night when we are sleeping alone in our room.

I looked at Hafsah who was already sleeping.

I also closed my eyes but the first thing came in front of my eyes was his photo.

My eyes snapped open and his thought came in my mind.

I recall the memory of his picture.

Godddd!!! He is perfect.

Those blue almond-eyes were so deep like a ocean and I was feeling like drowning in them just by looking through the phone.

Damn!! That muscular body of his.

The sudden urge to tear that silly shirt of his and count those abs dawned over me.

WHAT THE HELL I WAS THINKING???

"Zia control your hormones".

I told myself.

Looks doesn't matter.

Insaan ka dil saaf hona chahiye.

What if he is a 'ameer baap ka bigda hua beta'.

I said to myself more like said to  my heart.

And then I pushed my thoughts away and closed my eyes.

Soon the sleep drifted me.
