MADE FOR EACH OTHER
Chapter 50

DUA'S POV:

After few more confessions I made we left for home. I was nervous. Hell I am nervous. I mean no doubt ayesha would brag my eyeballs out but I don't wanna be blind too.

"Dua" someone said and I turned towards the source.

I saw him while I hummed at him absentmindedly. I looked out of the car to see he had arrived.

"Look at me dua" he said and I turned my attention towards him.

He caressed my cheek. If I wasn't nervous I would have been melted right now.

"Dua. No matter what. I am with you." He said looking in my eyes.

"You have to face her now. I want you to be strong. Don't let her crash you down baby. You have to fight dua. Okay" he said while I just nodded. I am not planning to talk a quiet while like a year while.

Suddenly I felt like I am in the examination hall. All panicked and nervous. An hand intertwined with mine and I looked up to see him. So badly I want to jump at him and squeeze the life out of him but I am nervous, scared and all the words that are related to danger.

"Let's do it" I cheered myself half heartedly. Armaan pulled me inside. Basically dragged me inside.

We both entered the hall. I was shock I thought only ayesha would be there but everyone was there. Baba. Ammi. Abbu. Ayesha too. Everyone was sitting on the couch. Like waiting for our appearance. Ayesha stood as soon as her eyes felt on me. I could clearly see emotions in her eyes. It was anger. Pure anger filled in her eyes. And the worst part is it was all for me. I gulped nervously.

"Armaan what is it. Dua has signed divorce papers. Did you guy's had a fight." Ammi said she was so worried. I am so sorry ammi. It's all my fault. I am such a bad person. "Ammi. Dua is pregnant." Armaan said. I looked at him. But that smile of him. Dua.

"Really." Baba looked at me. I nodded at him. Does he care. He does the smile on his face said that to me. I rarely saw him smiling. Allhamdullilah. He does. I made him smile. "Mash Allah. Dua. I am so happy. Mabruk." Ammi said as she came forward and kissed my forehead. I smiled all worries jumped out of the window. I hugged her.

"But then why did you sign the divorce papers. I mean you guy's..." she was saying but I stopped her.

"Ammi I think I have an explanation for all this..." I said. Ammi looked at me with curiosity.

I walked towards the paper, picked it up. Ayesha was glaring me hard. Like her life depends on it. I tear apart the paper. Relief I got. I looked up to see at ayesha she was shaking with anger. Her eyes were shot red. Like blood was dripping from it. But I was not scared anymore.

I stood in front of her. She wanted to kill me right now with her bare hands but she can't in front of everyone. But all curtains are gonna fall down. No secrets. No more hiding.

"No ayesha I am not going anywhere. I am not leaving him. I am not living my family. So you do try and attempt to rip as apart. I am not gonna leave. Never ever." I said looking directly in his eyes. A new confidence was boiling within me.

"And if you ever try to break us like you did it today with those mind tricks of yours then you'll regret for the day you were born." I was no completely satisfied. Content I felt.

I turned around looking at the rest of my family who was still watching me astonishment.

"Ammi. Abba. Baba. I am really sorry. I did this all because I am dumb. I listened to someone whom I shouldn't have. I am sorry for creating this all." I said. Looking down at the flooring.

Armaan explained them all that happened. I was sobbing a little. I wasn't able to look in their eye's. By the time he finished I caught a glace at everyone. Abba were with blank expressions. Ammi had sadness on her face. While baba baba looked angry. I was starring at his face. He got up abruptly and what he did next wasn't I imagined in next millions years. He slapped her.

Baba slapped ayesha. For real. His eye's were full of hurt and regret.

"How could you break the house of your own sister." He screamed at her.

"She is not my sister. She was never and will never be" ayesha yelled at him.

But before baba could say any further. I interrupted.

"She is right." I could feel everyone looking at me.

I don't wanna keep this burden with me anymore.

I nodded my head." She is right. She is not my sister."

"Dua do you know what are you saying." Ammi said. I nodded to her and continued

"When ayesha's mother had an accident. I ran towards her before she passed away. She said this to me." I paused. Was I saying this for real.

I felt armaan who was standing all the time beside close to me. So much I wanted to just curl down with him.

"She said that... that ayesha is...is not really my sister. She said she lied to baba. Her family threw her away she had no other way." Gasp was all I heard.

"No. No. Your lying. You bitch. You.." ayesha charge herself on me. Thanks that armaan was sitting beside who stopped her. She kept on screaming and yelling. That was the reason I knew she would never believe me.

"I... let me finish ayesha." I yelled at her which made her stop but only from yelling. She kept on crying.

"She said she couldn't take it with

her self anymore. So she asked me to tell it to baba. But I was worried that he would kick you out of the house. Sometimes I felt. I felt I

should tell this to him. But net

every

time I failed. I am sorry ayesha. But it is truth." I said showing as much hurt I can in my eyes.

Baba collapsed down and i was the first to rush towards him.

"Baba you alright. Baba please hold on to yourself. Please." I said to him. I knew I shouldn't have said it. I knew this.

"I can't even look at you dua. All this

time I loved her knowing that it's from me and someone whom I love. All this time I never looked or care about you knowing you are from someone who was forced with me. I never considered looking at you. I never looked at you as my daughter. I... I am sorry dua. I made a huge mistake." He said looking at me.

"Baba." Was all I said. I shouldn't have said it. But I couldn't keep it with me always.

"Baba I am sure she is lying. It's her

dua. She always lied to us. Who was always disgrace to us. You...you can't believe her..I am I am you daughter baba. I... she is lying...she is lying. Baba..." ayesha said with her crying. It's hard to be believed. But

it's true. Baba looked at her in

complete disgrace.

"You. You are like your mother. You both lied. Lied to me. I wonder ruksana (ayesha's mother) did she ever loved me. Or she loved only the money that I had." Baba said.

"While She(dua's mother)always loved me. Cared for me. Looked after me. But I... I never understood her love for me. I am sorry" he said crying. He was feeling guilty. At least he realized.

"Salman. Don't be weak. Hold yourself on." Abba said.

After a few while. Baba was okay. I sat beside him.

"Baba I know. But haven't you loved ayesha all this time. How can you just forget about it. I can only say else is you to do. But as per me I forgive you baba. I always hoped one day you'll turn and today is that day." I said while baba looked at me with admiration.

Ayesha she kept quiet all the while. Good for her.

"Okay today was enough of drama. Let's all have dinner." Ammi said to all.

We all had dinner. Ayesha was quietly eating. It might be hard. I forgive her not for the stunt she pulled today. It's hard to but I forgive her for bullying me all these years. I don't know what baba will decide. I think he is gonna except the reality and flow with it.

Ayesha and baba left. Ammi and abba did soon after. The second ayesha and baba left she forgot everything that happened. Now she was all excited for the baby. She said she wanted a daughter. Armaan and ammi kept fighting for gender.

"Armaan you said you want a baby boy." I asked to armaan who was rubbing his hairs with towel.

"Yes. I did" he said as he trew the towel away and landed beside me on the bed.

"Can I ask you why. I mean what if it's a daughter." I asked I was curious.

"I think will have a baby boy because." He looked at me.

"Because" I repeated.

"Because I saw in my dreams that will have a baby boy and two kids at least." He said with smile. "Really. Baby boy. How did he looked. Like you or me. Tell me. I want details." He made me very excited. "Actually I don't remember." He said coming closer.

For a while I kept looking at his eye's. While his hand's were making there way to pull me towards him.

"Armaan." I said.

"Hmm" he responded.

"Thankyou. Armaan." I said. Okay I am ready.

"I love you" I said before he could say anything.

He was shocked for a while. I crashed my lips on his. He kissed me back passionately.

"I know you love" he said. What.

"All this time you knew" I asked

"Yes. I knew i love you and i knew you love me too." He said.

"Then why didn't you said it." I asked. That's a serious question.

"I didn't found it neccessary. When ever I saw those eyes I knew they are always gonna be filled with love for me. Always." He said.

My eyes filled with tears. At his say. How could I not see the love in his eye's all the time. Maybe because I was too scared. But now I am not. Definitely not. Now I can see the love in his eye's for me.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
