Tum aakhir khwaab kis ke dekh te ho-

Around 9 am Eshal got a call from Hareem that she's going to do Nikkah shopping as they barely have any time because after Asr Namaz the intimate Nikkah going to take place, with only family, as directed around 10:45 Humaira including other ladies of Khans came to Siddiqs Haveli, to pick up Eshal for the shopping barely having any interest in the talks all she did was to do answer to the Salaam, and hmmed to every question

They settled into there cars with Eshal, Hareem with Humaira & other ladies in different car,
Crossing the neighborhood her eyes fell on the Khan Haveli, which workers were decorating her eyebrows raised in question but she killed down that curiosity, but Humaira noticed that, " Aap dono ka Nikkah, iss jald baazi main toh zaroor ho raha par iska matlab yeh nahi Khan apni badi bahu ka istaqbal na kare" Humaira completed to which Eshal just nodded blankly

" Ma'am yeh best ready to where Nikkah piece hai puri market mein" the sales lady says while showing the piece " Hmm Eshal aap bataiye" Humaira questioned Eshal for her choice " Aunty jaisa aapko behtar lage" Eshal replied awkwardly " Thik hai jao isse ek baar try karke aao, hum itni dair dusre piece dekh lete hai" Humaira instructed her and she does the same

After some 2 hours they finally shopped for her, as her whole wardrobe was in Delhi so Humaira made sure she had dresses for atleast 15 days after her wedding, and after all the shopping and fitting they went back to there respective home;

Eshal after taking long bath was sitting all alone waiting for MakeUp Artist, when someone knocked the door she went there to check it was her mother

" Eshal apni Maa se itni be-rukhi acchi nahi" Suhana said seeing her facial expressions shift for worst
" Be-rukhi, Maa" Eshal taunted her mother
"Ab bohat hi zyada badtameezi ho rahi hai tumhari" Suhana shouted at her
"Mummy be-rukhi waha dikhai jaati  jaha suna jaata hai, waha nahi jaha faisla thoup dete hai jaise aap ne kiya ki mein ek badd kirdar ladki jo kisi bhi aadmi ke kamre main chali jao..." she couldn't completed her words when she came contacted with sharp string across her face, she looked up to see her mother fuming in anger
"Oh agar main khud ko character less bol rahi hu toh jab masla hai, koi aur apki khud ki beti ko characterless keh sakta hai" Eshal spatted venom and her eyes hold no tears but hurt

She went back to bed and sat on it " Aap jaye mujhe apni barbaadi...oh sorry Shaadi ke liye tayyar hona hai" and said to her, Suhana was about to leave the room when Eshal called her from back " Ammi...... aunty se bol dijiye abhi tak dress nahi aayi hai meri barbaadi ki I mean shaadi ki" to inform her; With a thud door closed and at the same time she fell on the mattress with a thud and trail of tears left her eyes
