Third person's pov :
She couldn't believe what she just heard and Humza was dying from guilt and she didn't believe, that he could kill someone!..
"Pls! tell me what happened? you'll never kill someone, I know! " she said, assuring him..
He just looked at her, how she believes him blindfolded! then, he began to tell her, about his past...
Flashback!!!
Three years ago!!
Aala was close to her due date, she was eight months pregnant and daniyal was so happy! that he'll hold his prince in just a month...
She was sleeping and daniyal was rubbing her belly and he kept on talking with his son, when aala woke up and saw his husband talking to their baby! she smiled...
"morning! my lovely son's father " she greeted him...
"morning to you too, my lovely son's momma "he said, grinning..
He helped her to sit on the bed, then he kissed her lips softly, she smiled at her husband...
"I love you!" he said, smilingly..
"I love you too! dani" she said, and hugged him tight...
Then, he pulled away and kept his hand on her belly and their son kicked he was so happy! that he could feel his son's kicks and movements and he mumbled Alhamdulillah! indeed their lord is the best creator!!...
"come-on get up darling! I'll make breakfast for you and my son, you guys are hungry! " he said, grinning...
"Ok Dani! let's go!" she said and he helped her and took her to the bathroom, then she took shower and wore her outfit and she came down
Daniyal was busy cooking and when he heard the footsteps, he turned and when he saw her! his eyes just moistened and he neared her, motherly glow was evident in her face!! he just hugged her tight! he didn't know why? but, he felt like it was the last time! he'll hold her in his arms..
She was refusing to eat anything because she felt like puking! but he made her eat with his hands, then he handed her a glass of milk and she pouted but one glare was enough from him, for her to gulp the milk..
A moustache was formed on her upper lips! he smiled, because she looked like a child! he wiped her lips with his sleeves, then he washed the dishes! then he went to his room to change into his business suit...
Aala was so happy! she felt like a queen! because her husband treated her like one, she was so excited and overwhelmed with happiness and she couldn't ask for anything more! she felt content! because allah had blessed her with a loving husband, understanding family caring brother and their upcoming bundle of joy, their little prince!...
Then, daniyal came down and he began to walk towards the door, but he turned and came near her, then he kissed her lips passionately!! because he felt like something bad is going to happen, but he didn't voice his thoughts out! aala too kissed him with equal fervor, then he rested his forehead on hers...
He had tears in his eyes, but he blinked back and smiled at her fondly...
She too was nervous and she never wanted to let him go, then he kissed her lips one more time and then, he kissed her baby bump...
"see you soon sweetheart Insha Allah! " he said, smilingly..
"Ok come soon! we'll be waiting for you " aala said, rubbing her belly..
Then, he looked back at her one more time and gave his million dollar smile and she smiled too then, he said "I love you and our prince so much" then, he left for his holdings...
Humza was at the warehouse and everything was fine and he continued his works..
Then, in the evening he got a call from Daniyal and he attended the call, his brother in law had asked him to pick him up! because his car break down in the middle of the road and it was raining heavily! so he left immediately and he found him, then he settled beside him and he was drenched fully....
"aala was worried for you bro!" Humza, said to daniyal..
"I know I told her that I'll come early! " he said smilingly...
He was riding the car and rain was pouring heavily and a car was coming on their direction it looked like the driver has lost it's control, but luckily Humza dodged the car at left and he heave a sigh! but he didn't notice that the truck was coming from the side and In a blink of an eye the truck hit the car and the car rolled upside down...
"Humza...... " yelled, daniyal...
The car was crushed badly at the left side, where daniyal was seated and Humza's vision began to blur! before closing his eyes, he noticed that blood was dripping from his head and he looked at Daniyal, who was drenched in blood and he heard him mumble his shahada with difficulty and darkness engulfed him...
When he opened his eyes everything was blurry! then, after blinking for several times, he noticed that he was in a bed and everything was silent around him and his throat was dry...
He decided to move, but he felt like someone had beaten up everywhere badly, then a nurse came rushing and when she saw him awake, she called the doctor...
Then, he remembered what happened then, he panicked he didn't know if daniyal was safe or not? he wanted to know...
Then, the doctor arrived and checked his pulse and asked him several questions, he answered correctly and he saw Haan and his momma standing next to the doctor....
"do you know from how long you're staying in the bed? " doctor asked, calmly...
"I don't know!" he said honestly...
"but where is daniyal how is he? " he asked in panic tone..
"I'm sorry Mr Ibrahim but Mr Omar is no more!" he said, apologetically..
His eyes got wide, he didn't believed what he heard and Haan nodded in yes and tears pooled from his eyes, he thought he was responsible for his death and now how he's going to face aala and what about their baby! he asked himself...
"Mr Ibrahim don't stress your brain, you just woke up from comma after 4 months " the doctor said...
His eyes widen, he was in comma for freaking four months!! he didn't attended the funeral of his brother in law and where is aala...
Then, the doctor left and he was shifted to normal room from ICU...
"momma where is Aala? what about her baby? " he asked guilt lasing in his voice...
"aala Is fine Alhamdulillah! and congratulations you're a maam Now don't stress Humza! it's not your fault you didn't did this! it was al-qadr " she said, assuring her...
It was a difficult time for Aamina! because, both her children are suffering! one who lost her love of life and other fighting to live his life but she know it was a test from Allah! she remained strong and patient for their children!!
But deep down humza didn't believe! he felt guilty for his actions! because of him, his sister is suffering..
Then, Haan explained everything to him and a huge plaster was wrapped in his forehead and a plaster on his legs and few cuts and bruises on his face and hands...
After a week, he was discharged and when he arrived to home! he saw aala who was silent like a statue..
On seeing him, she ran and hugged him tight "alhamdulillah you're safe Humza I thought! I lost you too..."she cried on his chest, while hugging him! he didn't expected this treatment from her sister! after all he was the one, who took her love of life away from her and he felt more guilty! he felt like all the life was sucked out of him....
End of flashback....
He cried in her chest, while telling her about his past and she wrapped her arms around his love of life! she felt every pain he was feeling right now! she didn't knew, he was bottling up his emotions this much..
It crushed her heart and she too was crying with him and he was so vulnerable at the moment, "I'm a monster asfa! I'm a beast! I killed daniyal " he said, venom dripping his voice for himself...
She shook her head in no, he was not a monster, he never killed daniyal! in fact he tried to save him, but it was al-qadr..
She cupped his face and said, "don't say tha!t you're not a monster nor a beast! you're a man with a beautiful soul! you never meant to hurt him, and In fact you tried to save him " she said, assuring him..
But, he shook his head in no.. "you know what? whenever I look at Zain, I feel guilty because of me his father is not with him today! and aala loved him so much! but what happened, I ruined it " he said, curling his hands into a fist, which was already bleeding...
"listen to me carefully! it was meant to happen, it was Allah's plan, al-qadr if you were not there then also it had happened! so, don't be harsh to yourself Humza! I know how it feels but, don't let this destroy your peace! Pls, don't give up! I know you feel guilty, but it's actually not! just think that if daniyal was alive today! will he be happy to see you like this?? " she asked, him calmly controlling her sobs..
He nodded in no.. "look you got your answer! now, don't cry! you didn't do anything, it was meant to be! look on the positive sides if in case momma lost you too that day! what will happen to them? you thought about it.. no right??" she said smiling sadly..
Just the thought of loosing him, scared the hell out of her! he's just like her wounded by past and he too was heartbroken and Allah has joined their broken hearts to mend each other...
She made him look at her, then she wiped his tears and she kissed his forehead and he just relied on her touch and her touch was soothing him...
Then, she took first aid box and cleaned his knuckles, which were bruised badly and she was hissing the whole time applying the antiseptic liquid, he just smiled at her and she wrapped a band aid around his hands and then, she kept the box at their closet...
She tugged his hands and lead him to bed and she climbed first, then he climbed and she patted on her heart and opened her arms and like a small baby, he snuggled into her and she was patting her back and hair in a soothing manner...
While Humza was overwhelmed, because of her angel! who was there for him, when he was in distress! that if she was not here with him right now! he surely knows, that he'll do the same mistake! which he did in the past, but momma's promise was holding him back...
He snuggled in her more and she was cooing soothing words to him and she slowly lulled him to sleep and after sometime she too slept, holding his wounded king in her embrace....
She just witnessed her reflection in his vulnerable state, because her past resembled his so much!!...
...........................................................................

Finally his past revealed!!
Poor Humza and aala both witnessed unbearable pain...
