The clit and clutter of crockery was the only sound in the room. Everyone was busy in eating their breakfast, the atmosphere was gloomy today. Usually it was not this silent but today there was some strange silence in the room. Falisha was disturbed because of last nights events. Shahzain was in deep anger, he had told his father about last night.

"Adeela"

Everyone stopped eating and looked at Ihsan Zakariya who was looking at Adeela with a very serious expression.

"Ji bhai"
(Yes brother)

"Haven't you told your brother that there are some rules of these house and everyone who lives here has to follow them."

Everyone was clueless, nobody knew what he was talking about except Shahzain. Adeela was a little shocked why her brother-in-law was talking like this about her brother, she looked at Samar and tried to question him with her eyes and he just looked down at the table.

"What happened bhai?"

"Tell your brother that he cannot roam around in my house whenever he want. He is a guest in our house and we respect him but he should stay in his limits."

Falisha's breath stuck in her throat when she heard her Taya aba. She looked at Shahzain but he was busy eating his omelet, she glared at him but he didn't even look at her because he knew she was looking at him.

She was regretting now telling him but for how long could she hide it. She sighed and looked at everyone. Beena was dozing off in her chair, she smiled at her cousin. Daniyal was busy stuffing his mouth with pancakes. While her Chachi was glaring at her brother.

"Taya Aba, will you be home when i come back from Uni?"

She asked cheerfully trying to lighten the mood.

"Yes my daughter, why do you ask? "

"She needs something, as usual "

Daniyal scoffed at her, and she just showed him her tongue and got up from her chair, walking to her Taya aba she hugged him.

"Shut up Dani, i am not talking to you"

Ihsan Zakariya just laughed at her antics, she always did this whenever someone said something to her she would come running to him.

"What do you want? "

He asked her lovingly, Shahzain was watching her closely. Nowadays his interest in her was growing. She was wearing a white frock with red dupatta, her chest nut brown hair tied in a French braid. She looked like a breath of fresh air.

"I need your permission for something"

"Yes, I am listening"

She shook her head and kissed his cheek.

"No i will talk to you when i will come back"

Shahzain was curious now, for what thing she needed his father's permission. He knew she was up to something, this little minx was always brewing up some trouble. He took a quick note to ask his father about what she was asking.

Falisha grabbedher bag and followed Beena out of the house, they left for university. Shahzain and Daniyal also got up to leave for office.

Samar was seething with anger while his sister was lost deep in thoughts. He turned around and looked at her who was massaging her hands with moisturizer he walked towards the bed and sat with a huff.

"That old rag can't mind his own business "

He muttered, while she just rolled her eyes at him. Her brother was a real impatient one.

"Shut up, its your fault, you can't even control a little girl. Why were you boasting about how you will wrap her around your fingers when you can't "

She glared at him and pulled the plate of fruits closer to her and took out an apple, her blood pressure was getting low with all these thoughts. Only if her brother wouldn't be so reckless. She got embarrassed in front of everyone just because of him.

"Don't worry apa soon, she will be in my hands soon."

Samar assured his sister and thought about his next plan. If Shahzain hadn't seen him he would have succeeded. Now he'll have to do something sooner or all his efforts of past two months will go down the drain.

"Know this Samar, you are my last hope in getting that property. If you and Falisha get married all her property will be ours."

He came out of the bathroom and started drying his hair with towel, he was wearing his night trousers only. He threw the towel at the chair and walked towards his bed, the door was opened with a jolt and she stormed in but stopped when she saw his shirtless state.

He looked at her distastefully, this girl didn't knew any manners. He walked towards her who just came in like a raging bull but was now standing there dumbstruck.

"Don't you have any manners? "

He asked her who was looking at the floor, busy founding some long lost things.

"How dare you? "

She yelled at him, suddenly remembering why she came here for.
He just raised an eyebrow in return.

"Why did you tell Taya Aba that i can't go on my uni trip"

He sighed at her, so this was the matter. When he asked his father what she needed permission for he told him that she wanted to go with her uni fellows on a trip. Shahzain wasn't ready to send her off with a bunch of stupid fellows, Beena was also not going so it was out of question.

"Just because"

He said and raked his eyes on her form. She was wearing printed shalwar kameez and in haste she forgot her dupatta coming here, and now she got conscious of her state seeing his eyes raking over her shamelessly.

"Who are you huh, you can't stop me. I am Falisha Ibrahim and no one can order me around."

She told him and poked a finger on his naked chest reminding him his place. He looked down at her finger and then at her face. She pulled away her finger but he grabbed it in his hand.

"You want to know who i am?"

He whispered lightly, taking a few steps closer to her. She gulped seeing his eyes trained on her face, she took a few steps back but he got more closer till she was backed in the wall.

He snaked his one arm around her waist pulling her closer to him. Her hands automatically went to his chest, feeling the heat of his naked body beneath her hands, she shuddered when he whispered against her lips.

"I am your husband Falisha Shahzain"
