This is the story of Naeem and Nisma, two different people, but from a similar background.
Meet Naeem, the youngest of three siblings, mischievous and naughty, but caring for closed ones, loves driving, swimming, and partying with friends.
Meet...
After the wedding the new couple went for umra and then to their honeymoon. Life was back to normal for other people.
Internship had started,Nisma and Naeem were posted in different departments. Nisma was posted in Oral Surgery while Naeem was posted in Pedodontics(kid's dental care). They would meet up for lunches and sometimes on weekends, they were also preparing for Entrance exam for admission into MDS.
Naeem's POV
Internship is a great way of putting our 4 years of knowledge to practicality,but it was tiring as hell.
The most relaxing part of going to college was seeing Nisma,my wife...sigh...
If anyone had told me in my first year that I would be love struck till I reach internship,would've laughed at them. But she is something else, we only had nikah, i wasn't even thinking of rukhsati, but since Nizam's wedding, that thought had been running in my mind. I wanted to clear my PG entrance then ask her father about rukhsati.
After her brother's wedding life kinda became boring, we hardly had anytime for each other, in college I had to be distant with her, not all people knew about us, only a few of our friends knew.
I was thinking on taking her on a date, i have planned everything, it should be great In shaa Allah.
Today I plan on going with Nisma, after college timings were finished, I was waiting near her car, she arrived with one of her colleagues, she was laughing on something he said,I saw the look on that guy's face,I felt like punching him, but controlled, I just stared at him.
When Nisma came near and saw me, her eyes brightened,and it gave me immense pleasure that she was happy to see me.
She said, "Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu Naeem,What a pleasant surprise, how are you?"
"Walekumussalaam warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu,Alhamdulillah I am doing good, I was thinking could you drop me home, I have to discuss something important with you."
"Sure why not, by the way this is Arshad, he is my colleague."
"Assalamualaikum"
"Walekumussalaam warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu, how are you Arshad (I had to play nice,he was her colleague)"
"Shall we leave now 'sma?"
"Sure, Allah hafiz Arshad."
After the good bye and then settling in,I drove with Nisma to a newly opened dhaba style restaurant in City Center Mall.

It was a dhaba style restaurant and the decor reminded you of original dhaba from North India. Nisma always wanted to try dhaba food.
The look on her face was priceless, she was like a kid brought to the candy shop.
The conversations were so natural and so intense, all through Our time, I intertwined our left hands, she didn't complain, in fact even if I let it go, she would hold my hand.
I asked her about Our rukhsati, her eyes said it all.
Nisma, "You know Naeem, I really missed this,missed our time together, many a times I felt like approaching you at college, for a hug or a kiss, but couldn't, I missed US."
"Wow, habeebti(my dear) I missed you a lot more, You have no idea what Your presence does to me, and what your words do to me, if I could have my way, I wouldn't even miss a second and take you home right now."
"I think we should talk to our parents about Our rukhsati, but I have one condition."
"What is it dear?"
"Don't take it in the wrong sense, I want rukhsati as much as you do, but I'm not ready to be a mother yet, I want Us to have a proper career before We bring a new human to life, I want to be ready for that."
"My thoughts are the same 'sma,I want Us to know each other, travel places with You, have many more things to do, then we can plan for kids, no pressure from me or my parents, because my bhabhi and Noor aapa also had kids after their careers were established, so my parents understand what it means when a lady wants her career, Our house isn't the conservative type, We do everything according to Islam, but We don't force Our women to stay at home, You can relax about that."
"JazakAllah khair habeebi, You have relieved a big burden from my mind. We can speak to Our parents, I can't wait to be with You officially, and hold your hand or hug you, without anyone saying anything else, coz then you will be officially mine."
