"Thanks a million to the Almighty, everything went well"- Mrs Ibrahim expressed her Gratitude.
"Yes, it's all your hard work and prayers.."Mr. Ibrahim felt satisfied...
"Where is Zayden... he is still sleeping..it's quite late now go and wake him up..." he asked Mrs Ibrahim.
"He must be tired... He was quite upset after the function... did you notice that" Mrs Ibrahim expressed her worries for her son.
"You and your stupid worries... he is not a kid anymore... stop worrying about him all the time.."
"How could I... I am his mother... if I don't care who will... I can't be like you..."
"Good morning Mom and Dad..." Zayden came out and wished his parents.
"Let me ask Hameeda to prepare your breakfast..." Mrs Ibrahim said.
"No need... I don't feel like eating anything..." he said.
"What happened...? you don't look well.." she got worried.
"Nothing much I slept quite late... I am just tired..."
"Zayden.. I am really happy for you... Aaira is the perfect girl for you...now just don't take long to get married " Mrs Ibrahim was very happy.
"Mom... please don't rush for marriage...By accepting your words, the engagement is done, isn't it?.." Annoyed with her nagging he left the place.
"Ibrahim see what had happened to him...? why is he so angry...?... He didn't even had his breakfast"
"Give him some space... he is not a kid.. he know how to take decisions..."
"Have you seen Mr Aafandi... their family flourished again..." Mrs Ibrahim changed the topic.
"They had a good family background... Mrs Aafandi belong to one of the most influential family of the country Q their business is spread in many countries. It was Mr Ibrahim's ego and self-respect that he didn't took any help from his relatives.. he too belonged to the family of landlords... didn't you see most of the people present yesterday know him" Mr Ibrahim informed her.
"Really... I didn't know anything about it... Even Feriha never mentioned about her background..." she was quite shocked.
"They were simple and down to earth people... see all their children are well settled..." it was Mr Ibrahim.
"Yes... I have seen yesterday... I didn't believe Zumar... she changed a lot... she was looking beautiful yesterday.. but still she can't be compared with my daughter- in- law."
"Do you know she is leaving for France for few years... Have you seen that boy Yahaan who was with her... he is Aaira's cousin... do you know his family.. " She asked.
"Yahaan... yes he is the only son of Mr Farooqui ...." he informed
"Are you talking about Mr Farooqui... Chairman of the biggest construction company of the country... they own shopping malls and had many other business spread in many different countries.... if I am not wrong..." she was dumbstruck...
"Yes... you guessed right... he was with Zumar for last few years they were in same college.." Mr Aafandi told me last day.
"How could that boy took fancy to that mediocre girl... what's so good about her... She must have seduced him like she once tried on our Zayden... but I stopped her on time to approach him.." she gave her opinion.
"Don't talk like that about a girl... and you know her since childhood.. she's very settled a promising girl... I don't understand why you are prejudiced against her..."
"You don't know anything about today's girl's... they can do anything for money and class.."
"I don't she lack anything... she is good looking, independent, have influential family background... In fact her class and standard is much higher than us and your daughter-in-law if you really like to compare... only thing is that they don't like to show off..." He tried his best to shut her up.
"why are you taking their side so much... " she can't stand the truth.
"I have spoken the truth that's all..." he stood up as he don't want to argue with her.
Mr Ibrahim was decent and hard working businessman. He started from scratch and made his name in business. He has his own electronics company and had invested in some other companies as well. Mrs Ibrahim on other hand love to show off. She was very cunning and self-centred lady.
