(FOR EVERYTHING THERE IS A TIME PRESCRIBED ) HOLY QURAN 13:38....
I request my precious readers to pray their salah if they haven't prayed yet before reading this chappy.....
........................................................................
Asfa put on her outfit and tied her hijab as usually, while Humza was wearing his watch, both were ready to depart for the airport! she wore her comfy clothes..
Which made her look more sexy in Humza's description! while he wore a tees and jeans for their journey...
"ready darling? " he asked, her as he pulled their luggage and she nodded in yes! she tied her niqab and they drifted towards their car, while the bodyguards opened their door, the driver took them to the airport...
While momma and aala sisto will be there and saffu, imad and grandpa too will arrive their shortly! Rey and Haan bro already left from their penthouse....
They made their way towards the airport and they were escorted to their private area, while surrounded by the body guards while the driver parked their car and others have already parked their cars...
They hoped out of the car and the bodyguards placed their luggage in the plane, then the drivers took the cars to their house garage....
Zaid handed me the files, which were needed for my deal in Canada! while asfa was glaring at him...
"have a safe flight fam! " Zaid said, politely...
"thanks Zaid, you too take care! " Humza said and entered their private plane, all were buckled in their seat...
They took the Hannan's private plane as humza's plane was under remodeling of the interiors....
Imad and saffu hugged asfa tightly! they have missed her so much, despite imad sees her daily in the office...
Momma kissed her cheeks, while aala hugged her too and little Zain placed a sloppy kiss on her cheeks, she giggled and ruffled his hair....
Humza sat next to asfa and he interwined their fingers and the same followed by Rey and Haan....
Aala noticed it, she looked at her hand and she missed Daniyal !while tears brimmed her eyes but she blinked back, she looked at her precious Zain who was the replica of daniyal! she kissed the little one and he smiled at her, while playing with his toys...
The pilot announced their take off and everyone muttered their journey dua, as soon as the plane was on the air! they unbuckled their seatbelt and spread on their plane...
Safwa, asfa, aala and momma sat on the couch, while both the men were busy on their MacBook and imad was chatting with grandpa ...
"so you brought the gifts for lai, asfa? " aala asked her...
"yeah sisto! I bought it already! " she said, smilingly...
"Rey stop it, you'll catch a Cold! " safwa said, annoyed...
"what can I do? my baby wants tons of ice cream and I crave for it! " Rey said, while rubbing her tummy....
Asfa's heart jolted up in excitement, when she thought of their babies in future! how it feels to hold their tiny angel in their hands, her smile broadened....
"yes! while I was having Zain, I craved for Oreo shakes every single day and dani will make it for me happi--" aala stopped in the middle of her sentence, her face held a gloomy expression! all their eyes showed concerned towards her, but she composed herself and smiled sadly...
"look what is the little handsome doing there? " asfa asked them while glancing at the little munchkin, who was currently seated on imad's lap playing games in his iPad...
Zain was pouting at imad, as he lost the game while he chuckled and stroked his hair and again they started playing....
It was a four and half an hour flight from LA to Canada and everybody was excited for Laiba's wedding, it would be an amazing reunion for all the families, especially after Humza's wedding....
It's been a long time! while everyone had fun together, it was time for them to cherish it and Humza was looking at aala! who was staring at the cloud non stop while stroking Zain's hair who was asleep in her arms....
He felt sad for her! her state pained his heart, he never wished to see her in this condition, his heart broke into million pieces! while seeing her so lost, he wished he could take away all her pain....
Asfa sensed his discomfort, she was sad seeing him worried about aala! she hoped that this wedding should change aala's mind...
Yesterday, momma just talked about marriage but she snapped at the thought and she left the topic! but they'll talk to her soon, as not only aala needed it! but Zain needs a father too,, it'll be difficult for him to grow up without father! because asfa knows how it feels! heck both Humza and aala too knows the feeling as their dad passed away while they were at very young age! momma raised them, as a single mother....
They landed in Toronto Pearson international airport they got checked out and Nihal was waiting for them, as soon as he saw them he tackled Humza in a bear hug! then he did a bro hug to Haan and imad, he mumbled a quick salam to all the ladies....
"salam fam welcome to Canada! " Nihal said, dramatically....
Which earned a smack from Aamina at his head slightly, all the ladies chuckled at him! then the bodyguards blocked the paparazzi from their way! as it was a huge wedding in Canada and the well known business men and women from California had arrived to attend the wedding! so it was a huge news for the media.....
Soon they reached their aunt's mansion...
It was past noon, when they reached their mansion and Canada was three hours ahead of California...
"Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu welcome everyone " lariya chirped, happily....
"Walaikum salam warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu! " they said, in unison...
Lariya, laiba and seema aunt hugged all the ladies and Usman uncle hugged all the men...
"how are you Bhabi? " lariya asked excitedly to asfa...
"Alhamdulillah! I'm good what about you?" asfa said...
"I'm good too! " Lari replied....
"oh we have a new comer very soon! " seema aunt said, looking at Rey! as she blushed deeply...
"enough with your questions and answers let them rest ok!" Usman uncle cut their conversation...
"follow me guys! I'll show you your rooms! " Laiba and nihal butted in...
Seema and Aamina both the sisters went into the kitchen, as they were talking about the wedding preparations! while the other members followed them...
Nihal showed their rooms to Haan imad, and grandpa...
While Lari showed their rooms to Humza, aala and Aamina...
The maids kept their bags in their respective rooms...
Asfa plopped down on their bed because of tiredness! Humza joined her too "tired? " Humza asked her...
"pretty much! " she said, tiredly...
"let me help! " he said and started undoing her hijab, she sat silently and he removed her shrug and shoes! he tucked her to bed, she was smiling at him, he was too good to be true! and she held his hand, when he was leaving...
"don't go! " she said with puppy face, he sighed because he can't resist those chocolate brown orbs..
"Ok, darling now sleep! " he said, as he laid beside her after removing his shoes, she snuggled into him and he chuckled at her acts...
"last time I checked, you called me cuddly bear! Now who's is the one loves cuddling? " he asked, while grinning....
She raised a brow at him, but she cuddled more in him "but still you're my cuddly bear! " she said, like a cute child....
He kissed her temple lovingly and they both took a nap for a short time, as they both were tired after the jet lag...
Haan was helping Rey, while she was munching cookies aimlessly! he chuckled, as she kept on eating like a carefree child...
"you're eating a lot of unhealthy foods Cara Mia! " Haan said, to Rey...
"what can I do? our baby needs whole lot of a sweets! " she said pouting! while all the cookie crumbs were on her mouth and tears brimmed her eyes and the pregnancy hormones were taking a toll on her ...
He sighed, as she was so emotional these days! he wiped her mouth with his sleeve "of course! Cara Mia our baby needs it and stop crying I'll bring you more " he said kissing her pout smilingly...
She grinned at him and her tears were gone in a blink! Haan was shocked! as her moods were changing in a blink of an eye...
"Now you need to rest, come on sleep for a while!" he said, pulling her to bed and she removed her Cardigan and hijab! he pulled the blanket over her and he stroked her hair! while the other hand was caressing her tummy...
He bent a little and placed a lingering kiss on her stomach and mumbled "daddy loves you so much little one!! " she smiled whenever Haan talks to their baby bug, then he pecked her lips once more and soon she drifted off to sleep....
Then, in the evening everyone gathered for the dinner and it went smoothly! as the reunion of the families made them very happy and after three days will be Laiba's nikah then the other day valima and the bridal glow was evident on her face...
Everyone teased her to no mercy and she was a blushing tomato all the time! but at the same time, she was a nervous wreck....
"salam everyone! " a loud voice disturbed their we time! on the lounge area ...
Everyone turned to look at the owner of voice and they came to face a beautiful lady in her mid twenties and she had a beautiful brown hair which was wavy and with a mesmerizing hazel eyes! she wore a white loose shirt and leggings with a shrug and knee length boots....
"nimra! " Humza said and asfa looked at him quizzically...
"humzaaaa! " she yelled and ran into his arms and she hugged him tight! he was caught off guard at the moment, he didn't hugged her back! as he knows it is not permissible in Islam, and he didn't wished either....
Asfa was hurt! when another lady hugged his man! he was hers! only hers! and she felt her blood boiled, and jealousy pang in her chest...
"OMA!! it's been a long time since we met Humza! " nimra said releasing him and "yeah it's been a long time! " he said calmly....
"finally madam got time! to grace us with her presence " lariya mocked, her..
"sorry sweetheart! I can't come early but I'm here now! so smile! " she pleaded her...
"Ok you're forgiven! " laiba said and everyone hugged her..
Rey squeezed asfa's hand as she was looking red from hurt and jealousy...
"nimra Now meet an important person in our family! " aala said, smilingly...
"who is it aala sis? " she asked, quizzically...
"meet my wife asfa Ibrahim! " Humza said, pulling her close by her waist and he smiled at her...
Asfa smiled and looked at her, but nimra's face held shock! but she smiled at her and hugged her which asfa felt as a fake smile, but she shrugged it off..
"nice to meet you! " asfa said, politely...
She nodded at her "and asfa, nimra was Humza's classmate in school and uni " aala said, smilingly...
Asfa nodded smilingly, but she seemed uncomfortable because of nimra's gaze on her, all the time!!...
Saffu and imad sensed danger on her arrival! as they felt it's not going to be a pleasure encounter with her, but they remained silent....
"she is our paternal aunt's daughter and they'll be here on the day before nikah! " aala said to asfa and she listened to her...
After chatting with her and with the family members, they all drifted towards their room and asfa was silent the whole time Humza sensed that something is wrong with her...
"why are you so silent something wrong? " he asked, her but she nodded in no...
"come on say it! I know something is bothering you? " he said, pleadingly...
Asfa felt awkward about telling him but she told anyway "it's just that when nimra hugged you! I didn't liked it! but I know she is your bud --" she was silenced with a finger on her lips...
"I know! but I was caught off guard at the moment, but we were never close to each other! I consider her as a sister and I always maintain a safe distance with her, but she was a person with broad mentality, but I never crossed my limits and I know you were hurt by my actions but I didn't mean it ! " Humza said, explaining her...
"no! it's not like that, I trust you! I'm just you know " she shrugged it off blushing...
"you're jealous right! " he asked, grinning like a fool...
She hid her face in her palms, as she got caught! he laughed wholeheartedly..
But she glared at him "I'm not jealous! Ok, but what's mine! remains mine! " she said, firmly....
"Ohh! my possessive wifey huh! " he teased her, but she turned away hiding her smile...
He cupped her face and said "and I'm only yours! like you're only mine! " he said, possessively...
"and how about I'll give you a confirmation right now? " he said, wriggling his brows...
"how? " she asked, dumbfounded...
"like this! " he said and captured her lips for a deep kiss, she smiled against his lips and he pulled her close to him in a swift, which earned a gasp from her and he took the opportunity to invade her mouth, he tasted every corner of her mouth and deepened the kiss, she moaned with pleasure! and after kissing her fully, he parted...
Both were breathing hard and he said "is that OK or need another confirmation? " he asked, playfully...
She hit his chest and hid her face in the crook of his neck smilingly and he wrapped his arms around her waist and took her to their bed....
