Dard-e-Dil

Aaqil, Shahid and Tehseen tried to find out Tameem but couldn't. It's been a month of his marriage and leaving the home. After all the possible enquiries and searches when they didn't get any clue. At that time Shahid's brain worked fast.

"Aaqil find out Pooja's address" Shahid said and both the brothers started doing the same. They were busy in finding out the address which took almost ten or eleven days.

But Shehla was tensed that why would her husband didn't even come back from his work since a month.

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

He knocked on the door and after some five minutes someone open the door

"Yes?" A lady wearing off white and green sari asked politely.

"Do pooja lives here?" Tehseen asked and that lady made her brows furrowed

"Who are you?"

"Call Pooja we have to talk to her" Aaqil said to the lady and called her husband and son because three unknown men were asking about her daughter.

"who are you and why you are, asking about Pooja?" An old, but overbearing man asked in his manly voice.

''I'm shahid and they are my younger brothers, we all are trying to search our brother and I'm sure that he is with your daughter pooja" Shahid put his doubt in front of those people and they were shocked.

"How dare you to day anything like this about my sister, who you are... " Pooja's brother should angrily on three of them but his mother stopped him to raise his voice. As that was the matter of her daughter's dignity.

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

Pooja's family and Tameem's brother decided to discuss everything without any anger. After a short discussion Pooja's father informed them that that Pooja was a business holder and in those days she was living in Kangra (A

District in Himachal Pradesh, India) since one month or some more. At the same time Shahid and Aaqil informed that Pooja once came to meet their family with Tameem and they both wanted to marry. After knowing everything about Tameem and Pooja, her parents were shocked as well as ashamed too. They all desided to pay a surprise visiting to The Kangra home. To checked if Tameem was there with Pooja or not.

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

Shehla was still unaware about anything, she just knew that Tameem was tensed because of his argument with Shahid and there was a business matter between both brothers. But at the same time she was happy that Tameem's family was treating her in a good way. She was married but living like an un married one in her in-laws home. Night time was most difficult for her as she felt scared in veryyyyyy big and lavish room that too alone so she started sleeping in her mother-in-law's room or sometimes her mother-in-law or Any girl come to her room to sleep with her.

On the other side Mr. And Mrs. Khan were tensed that why their son-in-law haven't come back yet. Mr. Khan once talked to Shahid and his mother to asked about Tameem, but they said that Shehla was so much good fortunate for their family and business that Tameem was getting so many new business deals that's why it's difficult for him to come back as he couldn't afford to hand over his business deals to anyone else. But even after that much false information Mr. Khan was not satisfied. He was very experienced and wise man who never did any mistake in taking any decision except the decision of Shehla's marriage.

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

Shehla was in dreams of her so called husband without knowing about him...

Shahid and Aaqil went to Kangra along with Pooja's father and brother and knocked on the door of Pooja's home. After some ten minutes a figure open the door and....

The same happened which was expected..

The person who open the door was no one else but Tameem, he was frozen on his place after witnessing the glare of his elder brothers. A smiling face also came out from the room and she was also shocked when witnessed her father and brother standing on the doorway.

Pooja and Tameem were cough together red handed, Pooja's father and brother literally joined their hands in front of Shahid and Aaqil to make that secret as secret as that was the matter of their reputation and dignity. This is the double face of our society no-one say odd about a man but a girl's family face always feels ashamed in front of Everyone. Shahid and Aaqil wasn't a sant type people they were also atrocious people but still they weren't that much cheap that make someone's daughter disrespect in the society and moreover they were concerned about their reputation too.

After all they were the offsprings of Bade Mirza Sahab whose name was enough to give the account of his reputation.

Pooja's Father and brother took her with them, and Tameem wasn't ready to go back to his home even after almost one and half of his marriage. Then Shahid said strictly that he had to come back home in any condition, he gave ten days time to Tameem for coming back. Being a timid heart person Tameem didn't had guts to refuse to his elder brother's order which was in the form of a loud roar.

Tameem got agreed that he would be back to home after some days so Shahid and Aaqil decided to come back to Delhi, leaving Tameem there as they so knew Tameem never dare to refuse any other of their elder brother.

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

In delhi...

Shehla use to spent most of her time with kids of Shahid and Aaqil. And she became good friend to Nayla. Nayla never felt free with anyone but Shehla and she become like sisters. Kehkasha also love Shehla like a younger sister.

"Aapko andaza bhi hai ek ladki ki zindagi barbad karne main aap barabar ke hisse dar ban rahe hain, abhi bhi kuch nahi bigda, Tameem ke aane se pehle pehle Shehla or uske maa baap ko sab kuch bata dijiya"

(do you have any idea that you becoming equally responsible in destroying a girl's life. Its not too late, do shehla and her parents inform about Everything before coming back of Tameem)

Kehkasha requested in front of her husband (Aaqil) and he glared her. He love her very much but never like when he advised her specially in the matter of Tameem.

"I have already told you not to utter your nonsense" Aaqil said angrily

"Mujhe dar lagta hai aap galat kar rahen hain, kahi aap ke kiye ki saza hamari beti na bhugte... Aap kisi ki beti ki zindagi barbad karte hui ek baar bhi to nahi soch rahe ki aapki bhi ek beti hai..."

(I feels scared, you are doing wrong and I am worried that may our daughter don't get the punishments for your deeds. )

"Ya Allah inke gunnah ki saza hamari beti ko na dena"

(Ya Allah please don't punish our daughter for his deeds)

Doing prayer in Mumbling Kehkasha left from there and went the kitchen as that was the time for serving lunch when she stepped in the kitchen, Shehla was already heating up the food with a smile on her face. Kehkasha also started picking the plates and glasses from shelf.

"What happened Shehla why are you smiling like this?" Kehkasha asked and Shehla turned towards her.

"He is coming back bhabhi" Shehla said happily and Kehkasha felt guilty in her heart. Her daughter was only 5 or six year younger than Shehla so she was imaging Shehla's problems as her daughter's problem.

"Are you talking about Tameem?" Kehkasha asked and Shehla smiled then nodded.

"Ammi was talking to him and he said that he will come back after a week" Shehla said happily, she haven't glanced at her husband's face after marriage, she only saw him in her wedding pics.

After watching Shehla's happiness Kehkasha got tears in her eyes and she smiled hardly looking at Shehla.

"You are like Aashi for me, believe me I never want anything wrong for you. You are just like my younger sister or daughter for me" Kehkasha said with ful of guilt and Shehla smiled with narrowed eyes.

"Offoo bhabhi when did I said that you don't behave good with me? Even you and Nayla bhabhi always take care of me." Shehla said truthfully and Kehkasha felt more guilty.

"Allah agar betiyan de to unke naseeb bhi achhe kare"

(if Allah grant daughters then may make their destiny good)

Mumbling the same Kehkasha leave from the kitchen holding utensils in her hands but shehla was confused on her sudden changing in behaviour.

After sometime everyone was sitting in dining area having their lunch when...

"Ammi I'm selling my shop which I bought last year" Shahid said and shehla suddenly looked at him but didn't said anything

"Why?" Aaqil and his mother asked to shahid in unison

"I'll buy a shop in this area instead of that area... The property rates are not increasing there" Shahid said while lifting a bite and shehla couldn't control her tongue to interfere in the matter.

"But sha.." Aaqil was saying something but his words were cutted off by shehla

"Bhai according to me you shouldn't sell that properly! How many yards property is that? Shehla come out with that and Shahid grinded his teeth, Nayla gestured shehla not to talk to shahid but

Shehla was Shehla... She wasn't like all the other females who only stay reserved to kitchen and domestic works, she had the power to stand up with her own ideas.

"khamosh raho tum, ghar ki bahu ho bahu hi bankar raho... Har mamle main bolne ki zarurat nahi hai, koi or orat bolte hue dikh rahi hai jo tum aadmiyon ke masle main book rahi ho?"

(You stay quiet, you are the daughter-in-law of home... So stay in your limits... Don't poke your nose in the matters of males... Do any other woman is talking in this matter?) Shahid roared louder than normal roar, Nayla got tears in her eyes due to that loud and horrible roar. Kids present on dining table also got horrified but not shehla...

Shehla's blood got a boil. She was the girl whose advice was always important in her family but then shahid was shouting on her just because of her advice. She wanted to gave a befitting reply but just huffed and left the bite which she lifted from her plate to the mouth.

"I have done" saying that he left the meal in between.

"Shehla wait" Aaqil siad when she stepped out from the room

"ji bhai" she said firmly without glancing at Shahid.

"Say what was you were saying?" Aaqil said and Shehla looked at Shahid.

"nothing" saying that she was going further but stopped by Aaqil's call.

"Shehla, tell me.... Its okay, bhai is elder than you he can say something to you. right?" Aaqil said And shehla was bound to respect Aaqil as he treat her like her daughter.

"Bhai I was just saying that Shahid bhai shouldn't sell that shop from that area just because its price isn't increasing since one year. As far as I know that shop is very big in area, and if Bhai would sell that and buy a shop in this locality then new shop will be very small, as the property rate in our location is higher than that place." Shehla said and Shahid was amazed to listen the same he wasn't expecting something like that from an eighteen year old girl who always stay busy in playing with dolls or skipping rope with other teenagers girls of the family and neighbourhood.

" So what should I do according to you" Shahid asked with furrowed brows, Shehla's forehead was also full of creases as she was also an egoistic one who can't afford to tolerate anyone's loud voice, but she didn't express her anger which was flowing inside her like molten lava

"The locality where you own the shop is near a university, at this time it's price is less but in upcoming time it's prices will increase. Secondly if you buy a new shop in our locality even then you won't work on that, that will be remained locked as like the present shop in that location. you just wants to invest your money in real stage... So" Shehla stopped in between just to check the reaction of Aaqil and Shahid they both were looking at each other with amazement

"So.. What?" Shahid asked.

"Bhai according to me you should give that shop on rent, and don't spend that rent money on anything but just save them, from that money buy more property in the same Location, that place is near university so in upcoming time you will get benefits and if its come to our location... This is a residential area if you wanna invest in this area then buy a house here not a shop, you also know very well commercial works don't have a good scope here" Shehla didn't wait a single second after completing her sentence.

"Shahid bhai she said exactly what I wanted to say" Aaqil said with amazement

"Aaqil... This is not an ordinary girl" Shahid said and an evilness was there in his head

"Day before tomorrow she was saying about investing in gold trading" Aaqil informed and Shadid was Amazed.

"She is opposite to Tameem" Shahid said with tensed expression but Aaqil nodded in agreement

"She isn't like all the other woman who stay within the limits of salt and pepper, she knows how to deal with these type of situations... So never ignore her talks, I never noticed her saying anything useless in the matterz related to the business and investments, she talks very wisely" Aaqil said and shahid nodded but he was tensed after got to know about Shehla's intelligence. Before that he was thinking that shehla was a naive girl who don't know anything related to business, property or all these type of matters, but Shehla was the right hand of her father since childhood so she was good at in all those matters, as well as she was a good decision maker.

After few hours Nayla informed Shehla about what Shahid and Aaqil said about her. And she became happy after thinking about her praising. But shahid wasn't happy at all as he was tensed, he never thought that Tameem who was nothing in front of him...

Who always becomes scared in front of him

Who never dare to raise his voice in front of him...

His wife who was only 18 was giving him answers so bravely without any hesitation.

He was become tensed that might be Shehla would become the reason of ruining his future plans
