|5 Years Later|

T H I R D P E R S O N

The dusk had appeared, the cool breeze in the city of Mumbai was rarely seen. In this five years soo many things have been changed. Zahid got back to his profession. Being a pilot ran in the family now. Ruhaan and Humaina have been married for 3 years now. They have been blessed with a 2 year old daughter. They named her Rifah.

The Khan family were having their evening snacks when the voice of adhaan made them retreat towards their room for praying magrib salah.

Ruhaan left for the masjid to pray. He came back after a while when he saw his daughter Rifah sitting in the bed silently playing with her teddy bear. He took her in his arms and walked out from the room as Humaina was praying her salah.

Ruhaan with Rifah in his arms walked towards the kitchen.

"You want to eat it, Rifah?"

Ruhaan asked as he took the chocolate cake out of the refrigerator.

"Yeshhhh!" Rifah chided as she excitedly smiled towards his father. The happiness when the 2 year old baby girl encountered her favourite chocolate cake was the most adorable thing Ruhaan had witnessed.

"Let me feed you the cake before your mother comes after praying her salah."

He came near her and cut a bite of the cake from the half-plate and fed it to her when he heard his wife speak from behind,

"Ruhaan! You know that she is coughing so much yet you fed her these cake. Last night she had more than enough."

She came forward and glared at the father-daughter duo. Rifah cried as she was left hanging in between eating her favourite chocolate cake.

"Rifah, let's go baby. Your father will not leave a chance to spoil you." Humaina took Rifah and made her walk beside. Humaina was 8 months pregnant. Her eighth month was almost at the end.

"Aina, let me feed her the cake. She rarely has any chocolate."

Ruhaan walked behind Humaina and Rifah. He took his days off as he wanted to spend his time with her as she can have their second baby anytime. She needed to be in intense care especially in this time.

"Rarely? Last night she had lots of cake and cool drinks which led her to have cough early this morning and you are saying me rarely?"

Humaina sat in the couch and made Rifah sit beside her. Rifah snuggled close to her baby bump sadly. Ruhaan began,

"When will she eat Aina? This is her age to eat things like that. When she'll be around 7 you'll not let her eat because it will effect her teeth. When she'll be around early teenage you'll not let her eat because it will affect her weight. When she'll be around late teenage, Rifah herself will not eat it because of her stress due to studies. When she'll be an adult, she will not be interested in having these. When she'll be in her old-"

"OMG! Stop it Ruhaan. Like seriously, you should have been an astrologist instead of being a pilot. You seriously evaluated Rifah's interest for having a chocolate cake when she had it just last night!" Humaina stopped him from saying further.

"What's happening here?" Ayzal walked out of her room and sat next to Rifah. She started playing with her niece.

"Ruhaan is evaluating Rifah's interest on chocolate cake," Humaina teased to which Ruhaan and Ayzal both chuckled. Humaina laughed with them too when she felt a sudden pain in her stomach.

"Ahhh!" She closed her eyes when she felt a sudden pain started erupting in her body.

"Aina!" Ruhaan carefully held her hands and looked at her with full concern.

"What happened?!"

Ruba came out if her room as soon as she heard her daughter-in-law's scream.

"I t-think i-it's ti-me." She stammered. The whole pain in the body made her feel scared. Fresh tears ran through her pink and soft cheeks.

"Ayzal, get her hospital bag from their room." Ruba ordered. Ayzal rushed towards their room to get the bag with Rifah in her arms playing unknowingly as her surrounding were not serious for her. Ruhaan carefully and slowly started walking with Humaina towards the exit.

A minute she was sitting in the couch laughing at her own joke and the very next minute she is wincing in pain.

"Get the car Zubair!" Ruhaan yelled as they got out of the mansion. They sat in the car with Ruba. Ayzal lend them the bag hurriedly. She called Ashhar to inform him about the intense situation.

Going in the mansion again, she took the necessary things for Rifah and got out of the mansion. She climbed up in another car with Rifah in her arms.

They reached the hospital, Humaina was in intense labour pain. She was numb because of the pain. Her tears were continuesly brimming from her eyes followed by painful screams. The doctor and nurses rushed towards her and took her in to the labour ward.

They didn't allowed anyone inside even though Ruhaan was hell bent that he would come inside but Ruba interrupted.

"Let them do their work Ruhaan."

Ruhaan impatiently paced around the room. Ashhar, Zahid and Ayzal with Rifah had reached the hospital. They sat their in the waiting bench. The time was passing slowly with every second in difficulty. A nurse came towards Ruhaan with a pad containing some papers.

"Please sign this papers."

"What are these papers?" Ruhaan checked it but he wasn't able to process anything.

"Sir, Mrs. Khan is weak. We have 50 percent chance of her life. You have to choose either your child or your wife."

He felt his world crashing.

"How can you just say it like that? It's your responsibility to get her back to her normal state. What do I pay you for?!"

Ruhaan yelled at the top of his lungs. Making the people in the corridor shiver in fear. Rifah started crying loudly as she witnessed her sweet father being soo angry. Ayzal walked out of the corridor with Rifah so that she won't cry.

"Ruhaan! Control yourself!" Ashhar supported Ruhaan. He closed his eyes and spoke after a minute.

"I am sorry Miss! I choose m-my w-wife." A tear ran down his cheeks. The happy memories he spent with Humaina and his baby who wasn't even introduced to this world. How could he just choose between them? He signed the confidential papers and sat in the chair with his fingers massaging his temples.

Finally, after forty five minutes of waiting. The doctor walked out removing his gloves. She removed her surgical mask and smiled,

"Congratulations Mr. Khan. You have been blessed with a baby boy!"

He was shocked when he heard that but he choose his wife right? What about Humaina?

"I c-choose m-my w-wife d-doctor. What about her?!"

Sweat dripped from his forehead.

"Don't worry. She is totally fine now."

"Alhamdulillah!"

"His nose is yours." Humaina smiled with Haider in her arms. They named him Haider Ruhaan Khan.

"His lips are yours." Ruhaan carefully sat beside her.

"His eyes are yours." Humaina said making him confused.

"No Aina! Look closely. His eyes are yours." Ruhaan opposed. Humaina shook her head.

"Ruhaan, stop neglecting the fact that his eyes are yours. It's yours!"

"Aina it's-"

Before Ruhaan could say anything Ayzal decreed,

"Omo, Guys! It's mine okay?"

They chuckled looking at her irritated face with their adorable fights.

"And her hands are mine!"

Naimal uttered as her 5 year daughter Nida too looked at the new born with so much of love in her eyes. Ayzal and Naimal left the couple alone.

Humaina began,

"What more can I ask for Ruhaan?! I have got everything. I am so blessed, Alhamdulillah! Papa, Dad, Mom, Ayzal, Naimal didi, You, Rifah and now Haider. I seriously can't thank enough Allah(SWT) for being around people like you. Thank you for coming in my life and completing it. Thank you so much. I am blessed with the best!"

"I should thank you for choosing me to be your life partner. You are someone who I can look upon whenever I need. You are a blessing for me which I want to treasure all my life. I love you so much!"

"I love you too!"

آپ میری زندگی میں آئے تھے جیسے کوئی دوسرا شخص آیا تھا لیکن مجھے آہستہ آہستہ احساس
ہوا کہ آپ واقعی میرے لئے ایک نعمت تھے.

You came in my life like any other person did but I slowly realised that you were indeed a blessing for me.
