Inara's eyes were filled with tears. She was feeling suffocation around her. The room's window's were closed and the heater was on. It was the start of January. The weather was getting very cold with each passing day.
Dressed in a mustard knitted sweater and black trousers, she was sitting on the study desk., wrapped in a grey quilt.
She still had two ospes left and four long case presentations. The never ending exams had made her exhausted. Not letting her tears rolled down on her cheeks she kept studying.
It was past 8 o'clock in the night when Zulaid walked into the room. He was dressed in blue scrubs and a black jacket. He got stuck in an emergency surgery of a road accident patient. He had already informed her that he would be late today.
Their eyes met and he smiled at her. Walking closer to her, he leaned down and kissed her forehead.
"Are you done with your preparation?" He asked going to the bed. Removed his jacket and laid down on the bed. His legs were hanging down, arms resting behind his head and eyes closed. Just one glance at him and she knew how much he was tired.
"Almost" She rose up from the chair and walked to the bed, sat near him.
"I will go and warm dinner for you" She pushed hair strand from his forehead.
"Dil nahi chah raha" He refused.
(I don't want to eat)
"Why?" She asked, running her fingers in his thick hair.
"I watched blood and fecal contents for straight 3 hours. I can't eat anything now!" He told her the reason and kept lying with closed eyes.
"I will make juice for you or milkshake. Anything you want" She suggested softly.
"Nothing"
"You aren't going to sleep on empty stomach. Tell me your preference or I will make whatever I prefer" She emphasized.
"Stop bossing around me" He opened his eyes and stared at her.
"Why only you have the right to boss" She smiled.
"Stop eating my already tired brain. Achi bachi bano or sir dabao" He asked.
(Be a good girl and massage my forehead)
"Gala na daba doon" She smirked.
(I will prefer your neck)
"Daba do. Tumhain mafi hai"
(You can)
"Why?"
"Chup kar jao na please!" He begged.
(Please be silent)
"You are very arrogant. Sariyal!" She rested her fingers on his forehead and massaged it for five minutes.
"Get up. Take shower and change your clothes. I will get you pomegranate juice" She tapped his shoulders to wake him up otherwise he was going to fall asleep then and there.
"Thank you" He held her hand and kissed it lovingly.
"You don't need to thank me for everything I do" She was embarrassed.
When she came back into the room, he came out of the dressing room, showered and dressed in his black shirt and trousers.
They sat on the bed and she handed him the glass.
"Apne lie nahi layi?" He asked.
(You didn't get for yourself)
"Nahi! It's you who are hungry. I have had my dinner" She told him.
(No)
"Its bitter" He gulped the whole glass in one go.
"You are bitter yourself" She snatched the glass from his hand.
"I can't even say the same about you because you are the sweetest" He chuckled and pulled her closer.
"No buttering"
"I love you" He whispered and gave her a quick peck on lips. She smiled at him who was now laying down at his place to sleep.
Zulaid's eyes opened on the ringing phone. His PG wanted his guidance on something important and Zulaid was on call today. He switched off his mobile and released a long sigh. He was feeling better after taking sleep.
He turned around to her but her side was empty and untouched. He looked at the study table and there she was curled up on the chair, head leaned down on the desk.
"Inara! Get up" He tapped her shoulders lightly. She looked at him tiredly.
"What the hell did you do. I asked you to not study late at night. When did you sleep? And why did you sleep here Pagal!" He asked her seriously who was now rubbing her neck.
"I don't know when I fell asleep" She mumbled in pain.
"Is it hurting?" He asked, rubbing his hand on her neck.
"A bit" She muttered.
"Pagal ho tum. Dil kar raha hy do lagaoon tumhain" He slapped her head slightly.
(You are idiot)
"I hate you" She slapped his hand away.
"What did you say?"
"You heard it!"
"No. I didn't. Repeat yourself"
"I hate you!"
"You mean love"
"No way. I meant what I said. I hate you"
"So you hate me?"
"Absolutely!"
"No problem! I hate you too" Zulaid said it back.
"Did you just say that you hate me" She bit him on his hand hardly.
"Oh my goodness" He winced in pain and pulled his hand away.
"Jungli bili! Subh subh jeena haram kar dia hy. Take your ass to bed" He muttered, going to the bed. She joined it after a few seconds.
(You wildcat! You started eating my mind in the morning)
Zulaid snacked his arm around her waist and pulled her body to his. Her back touched his front.
"Leave me! Why are you holding me when you hate me" She squealed in his arms.
"I don't hate you sweetheart! Can I?" He turned her face to his side and looked into her eyes.
"But you said" She muttered.
"You said it too"
"Because I do hate you. You are bad. Arrogant. Rude" She teased him, turned to the other side.
"What did you just say?" He held her back to himself and started tickling her. The dark room filled with her sweet laughter in the middle of the night.
"Sorry. Sorry" She laughed.
"Good. Now sleep. I don't want to hear anything now" He rested his head near her and closed his eyes.
"Zoi!" She whispered after a few seconds.
"Hm" He was awake.
"I love you" She closed her eyes.
He didn't say anything just caressed her arms.
"I have a surprise for you" He broke the silence once again.
"What?" She asked excitedly.
"I will tell you tomorrow. Now sleep" He mentioned.
"What a way to bribe someone to fall asleep" She rolled her eyes but he couldn't see it in the darkness.
In the morning they both were getting ready for the day when Inara remembered his words from last night.
"Last night you mentioned about a surprise for me" She reminded him.
"Yes. I am taking you to Turkey. We have to get done with visa process in this week" He surprised her with a tour.
"No. You are kidding me. Right" She was shocked. She never thought he would get time out of his busy schedule.
"Of course not. I really want to take you on a trip. You deserve it after the constant grinding of proffs and moreover our honeymoon trip was pending" He said to her.
"I didn't know you were so keen to go on a honeymoon" She laughed happily.
"I wasn't actually until I married you" He patted her cheek and passes by her to get his laptop bag. Inara was so happy that she couldn't hide it from anyone. Many asked him what was so special. She couldn't tell them she was getting everything she once wished for.
After her exams, they traveled to Turkey for two weeks. Zulaid was on holidays after ages. There were no patients, junior doctors and calls anymore. It was just him and his very excited wife. It was very relaxing trip for him and a very memorable one because this time he didn't travel for work purpose to anywhere in the world but with his partner to make memories.
Holding hands, his arm wrapped around her shoulder, his chin rested on her head. Dressed in winter attires, they were looking into the camera's eyes. The most prominent thing in their pictures were the smiles on their faces and shine in their eyes.
Inara was constantly sharing their pictures in the family group. Back home, everyone was happy for them. They couldn't believe it was Zulaid who would smile from time to time but this man in the photos had plastered smile on his lips. He looked happy and content. Their family prayed for their eternal happiness.
Inara shared a picture of them in the group which only had Zulaid, Inara and Hamad. In the picture, Zulaid was kissing her cheeks, holding her close and she was smiling looking into the camera.
Hamadð: Oh my God! How can I unsee it. I need to wash my eyes with harpic.
Zoiâ¤ï¸: Go ahead! No one is stopping you.
Hamadð: Bhai you have become cringe, you knowð¤®
Inara: Stop being jealousð
Hamadð: I am jealous he never kissed meðµâð«
Zoiâ¤ï¸: You ain't my wife stupid!
Hamadð: Who says you can't kiss your brother. You come back and I will tell you every compliment your dear wife has given you in all these years.
Zoiâ¤ï¸: Fuck off!
Hamadð: Lol! But you guys are shining Mashallahð
After the memorable trip when they arrived home another surprise was awaiting for them. Inara's result came out the next day. She scored 74% in her Final proff. She started crying with happiness.
"Oh my God! I can't believe I scored 74%. It's my highest score in the five years" She screamed in happiness.
"Congratulations darling! You deserved it" He gave her a warm hug and kissed her forehead lovingly.
"Stop crying!" He wiped her tears.
"I am just so happy" She laughed.
"Allah tumhain ese hi hansta muskurata rakhe" He prayed for her happiness.
(May Allah give you happiness)
"Are you happy?" She asked him.
"I am very happy and very proud of you. You performed really well love!" He smiled at her.
"I am so so happy today" She chuckled.
"I can see that" He laughed too at her silliness.
"Come let's go. I will proudly tell everyone about my wife's achievement" He took her outside to share their happiness.
Then the phase of Inara's life started, house job which she always feared, from the moment she entered medicine.
