How to keep things

"Khala, Assalamualaikum!...." When Madiha entered her house she found Iman in the land and decided to go to her first

"Madiha?.. Walekum-Assalam! Kaisi ho?" Putting the book an table and taking off her specs, which she only wore when she has to read book or use phone or laptop, Iman got up from chair and hugged

(How are you?)

"Main bilkul theek..... Mamma aur papa kaha Hain?" Hugging her back, Madiha said

(I'm fine... Where is mamma and papa?)

"Woh toh Bahar Gaye Hain, Shaam Tak ayenge.." together they both walked in the house

(They both are not at home,... They will come in evening..)

"Yeh baato Ghar par sab kaise Hain? Sab tumhara khayal toh rakhte Haina.." giving tea mug to madiah who was comfortably sitting on her sofa in criss cross position, Iman asked

(How's everyone at your house? They are taking care of you, right?)

"Sab Mera bohot khayal rakhte Hain.. mummy, papa chachu sab.. lagta hi nahi ki sasural Hai.. warna Khushnuma aapi ne to mujhe Dara hi Diya Tha ki sasural wale Shaadi se pehle bohot pyaar dikhate Hain aur Shaadi ke baad kuch aur hi hote Hain... Apne ladke ki pasand unhe Kabhi achhi nahi lagti...." Madiha's eyes expand as she recalled the words of her cousin sister

(Everyone take care of me.. mummy, papa, Chachu they all treat me well.. I don't feel like it's my in laws house, I was really scared when Khushnuma Appi told me that Mother's never liked their son's choice of girls.)

Iman only listen to when she mentioned Dabir and her mind wander off the lane of past

"Khala.. Khala..." Madiah was going on but when she saw Iman wasn't listening she called her

"Huh!... Kya hua?"

(What happened?)

"Main bol rahi thi ki mere liya woh laddoo bana dijiye.... Pata Hai apke jaisa laddoo koi nahi bana pata...."

(I was asking you to make laddoo for me,... No one make laddoo as tasty as you...)

"Uff! Dabir, tumhe apni health ka dhyaan rakhna chahiye....." Iman scold Dabir who just popped another piece of laddoo in his mouth

(You should care of your health.....)

"Meri galti Hai ki tum itna achha laddoo banati ho?.. aur itna Sara layi bhi toh ho... Ab waste hone Doon?.." he saw Imam's hand closing the tiffin and before she could, he took the tiffin from her

(It's not my fault that you made so tasty laddoo. And you have brought this much... Why should I waste them?)

"Yeh pure ek hafte ke liye Hai, Dabir, ek din mein khatam karne ki zaroorat nahi Hai..."

(This is for one whole week, you don't have to finish them in a day.)

"Arey! Choro, ek ghanta zyada de dunga gym ko...." It wasn't a big deal for him, eating whatever he wants then giving one more hour to his gym

(Don't worry, I'll give one extra hour to gym.)

"Lekin apni diet pe dhyaan nahi doge." Iman shook her head negatively
