Farheen: “Is mein tou mujhe bhi masla hai”
(I have also problem in it.)

Fajahad: “Is mein tumhein mujhe hum dono ko masla hai, why don't you come at my home today. Kyun k I am definetly sure k Nidi ko yeh aata hoga and she would help us.
(Both of us have problems in it. Why don’t you come at my home today? Because I am definitely sure that Nidi know about it)

Farheen: “Nidi kaun hai?”
(Who is Nidi?)

Fajahad: “Bhai's wife. Meri bhabbi. Main aur Farah unko pyar se Nidi kehtay hain.”
(Bhai’s wife. My sister-in-law. Me and Farah call her Nidi.)

Farheen: “Tum kitne bhai behan ho?”

Fajahad: “Hum teen bhai behan hain. Let me show you...yeh main, yeh Farah aur yeh hain Faraz bhai. Farah aur main twins hain but she is 5 minutes...”
(We are three siblings. Let me show you…It is me, She is Farah and this is Faraz bhai. Me and Farah are twins but she is five minutes….)

Farheen: “Older than you?”

Fajahad: “Yes.”

                      --

Bright eyes were looking up the roof and around the house when they spotted someone, walking towards the room.

Feet walked near and approached "Excuse me"

He turned "Jee?" (Yes?)

Bright eyes brightened more when the fair color of his skin and round brown eyes were seen by his eyes, enhanced by golden brown hair, long nose, thin pink lips, sharp jawline, hard weight gainer physique and tall height supported by long fair rod like hands having long fingers and pink nails and shade of green lines running up.

-"Fajahad kahan hai?" (Where is Fajahad?), she asked in return.

"Fajahad upar hai, yeh walay kamrey mein" (Fajahad is upstairs, in this room.)

She nodded. "Thank you", she said widening her lips genuinely.

He widened his lips and blinked his eyes.

And turned to go in his room when she asked "Kiya aap Faraz bhai hain?" (Are you Faraz bhai?)

"Jee, main Faraz bhai hain" (Yes I am Faraz bhai.)

"Aap bohat good looking hain" (You are very good looking.)

He smiled and said "Thank you"

                       ---

As she entered in

 

As she opened the door there was

Fajahad: “Haan..Oh Farheen…Acha hua tum aa gai! Jaldi aao, mujhe samjh aa gaya.”
(Yes…Oh Farheen..Its good you have come! Come fast, I have got it.)

Farheen: “Your Faraz bhai is truly very handsome. Her wife is very lucky to have him.”

Fajahad: “Faraz bhai? Tum un se kab mili? Acha abhi ghar aaye hue hain?”
(Faraz bhai? When did you meet him? Ohh he is in home right now?)

She nodded.

Fajahad: “Tabhi. Yeah he is very handsome. Aur sirf Nidi nahi woh bhi bohat lucky hain k unko itni achi wife mili hain.”
(That’s why you met him! Yeah! He is very handsome. And not only Ndi, he is also very lucky to have a nice and loving wife.)

Thursday night

6 September

Fajahad's family at Kashif's house for dinner

Before dinner they were talking

Chachi: “Bhae aglay haftay se tou Ramazan hain, kiya kiya taiyaarian tum logon ne kar li hain, Farah.”
(Ramadan is starting from next week! What preparation you all have made, Farah?)

Farah: “Grocery poori hogai kapray rehtay hain.”
(Grocery is done completely. Clothes are remaining.)

Chachi: “Aray waah! Kis ne ki grocery ki shopping? Fajahad ne?”
(Wow! Who has done grocery? Fajahad?)

Farah: “Nahi. Faraz bhai ne ki. He is too good in it. Faraz bhai is expert in every work.”
(No. Faraz bhai has done it. He is too good in it. Basically Faraz bhai is expert in every work.)

Chachi: “Expert honay sey kiya hota hai. Expertidity ho ya na ho chalta hai bus izat honi chahiye. Warna tou sonay ka pani bhi gir jata hai.”
(What experdity gives you? It is okay if someone is expert or not but respect should be present at any cost. Otherwise gold’s water also run down.)

Faraz: “Sonay ka pani tou tab bhi girta hai jab saadgi mizaaj mein bohat ho.”
(Gold’s water also runs down when personality has too much simplicity.)

While looking at trophies, he continued

Faraz: “Ali kafi honehaar tarbiat ki waja se par uski sadgi ne tarbiat ko ziyada dair rehnay nahi diya tabhi tou yeh trophies aap k ghar ki zeenat ban chuki hai ali ki saadgi ki nahi.”
(Ali is quite talented because of education but his simplicity did not let the education to withstand his personality that’s why his trophies have become decoration pieces of your house and not of his simplicity.)

                     -----

After dinner.

Marium was serving tea.

Faraz was standing in lawn under the roof and busy on phone.

Marium: “Faraz..”

Faraz: “Shukria bhabbi. Koi kaam hai?”
(Thank you bhabbi. Is there any chore left?)

Marium: “Nahi. Thank you for helping out in chores.”

He widened his lips in formality.

Marium: “Faraz, aap se ek request hai”
(I have a reuest from you, Faraz.)

Faraz: “Jee bolyein”
(Yes say)

Marium: “Aap please Ali ko saada mizaaj na bola karein.”
(Please don’t say Ali “simple person”)

He looked away taking deep breathe and then looked at her to say "Yes" but she continued

Marium: “Main janti hoon auntie ek mauqa nahi chorti aap ko zalil karne ka aur aap jo kehtay hain woh jaiz hai par Ali ko lagta k ab woh waqai incapable hai kaam karne k. Main musalsal koshish kar rahi hoon ussay ghar sey nikaloon, ussay kaam karne pe majboor karoon. Please aap meri mehnat zaya naa karein.”
(I know auntie never misses a single chance to insult you and whatever you say in return, is justified but Ali thinks that he is really dumb to work. I am trying constantly to make him go out of house and work. Please don’t let my effort go useless.)

Faraz: (looking down and listening) “Aray kaisi baatein kar rahi hain aap. Main ab aisa kuch nahi kahoon ga.”
(Why are you saying like this bhabbi. I will say anything like this from now onwards.)

He ended on smile.

Marium: Thank you

It was a genuine smile according to her.

                     ----

They all were at home then.

Faraz was lying remembering their discussion and clasped her hand.

(Oh Gosh! He is here!)

Junaid: “Yeh hai kaun?”

(Oye! Katrina’s lover, who is this girl?)

Prem: “Yeh!! Yeh tou Natasha hai!!”
(She is Natasha!!)

(Yeah Natasha, Commerce’s student! Sir Jamshed’s favourite!)

Night with friends

When the bike stopped behind them.

Farhan (ran to him, patted hardly on his chest): “Dupahar ko kahan tha tu? Bata kahan tha”
(Where were in noon? Tell me, where were you)

Fajahad: “Khai mein! Tujhe kyun batao main kahan tha! Tu meri biwi hai kiya! Jab dekh peechay aa jata hai!”
(In gutter! Why should I tell you that where I was! Are you my wife? All the time you run behind me like lickspittle!)

                        ------

Next day

At college

Break time

When Fajahad was coming out of building.

Farhan: (stopped him) “Subah kahan tha tu?”
(Where were you in morning?)

Fajahad: “Kyun batao tujhe?”
(Why should I tell you?)

Farhan: “Tu mujhe bata!”
(Tell me!)

Fajahad: “kyun?”
(Why?)

Farhan: “Kyun k main tera best friend hoon!”
(Because I am your best friend!)

Fajahad: “Best friend hai biwi nahi!”
(You are my best friend, not my wife!)

Farhan: “Biwi aur best friend dono ko apne bande pe nazar rakhni parti hai agar banda teray jaisa hi tou tou definitely rakhni parti hai!”
(Both best friend and wife has to keep an eye of their partners especially the partner is like you!)

Fajahad: “Kiya matlab hai tera?”
(What do you mean by it?)

Essa: (running towards him) "Faji!!!"

Fajahad: "Essa!!"

Essa: “Kal altaf bhai ka jalsa hai!”
(Tomoorw is Altaf bhai’s jalsa!)

Fajahad: (bend to give him high five) “Yayyy!!! Tu aur main kal paka chalein gay!! Jaldi chalein gay! Pichli dafa bhi botal nikal gai thi humari!!”
(Yayyy!! We both will go there, promise!! And we should go earlier! Last time we also missed our drink!! )

Essa: “Haan yaa...”
(Yeah frien….)

Farhan: “Iss ko dekh tu mujhe bhoo…”
(Look at him! You forge….)

Essa: “Farhan you know we are best friends”

Farhan: (murmuring) “Best friends”

Fajahad: “Farhan, youknowmena, I love politics, I love country.”

Farhan: “Unomina!! Yeh ab kaun see teri cheeni girlfriend hai?”
(Unomina! Which Chinese girlfriend she is of yours, now?)

He knew how much his friend felt ecstasy with Chinese girls which he often expressed with "unki muskurahat unki bewakoofi har Pakistani mard ka dil lay lay" (their smile and their each studpidity can take the heart of every Pakistani men away!)

Fajahad: “Cheeni girlfriend!! Kaun see cheeni girlfriend??”
(Chinese girlfriend!! Which Chinese girlfriend??)

Farhan: “Ziyada ban mat! Sach sach bata! Warna main”
(Don’t be innocent! Tell me truth! Otherwise I will…)

Fajahad: “Warna tu kiya?? Haan bol”
(Otherwise you will what?? Say!!)

Farhan: “Warna main auntie ko bata dun ga!”
(Otherwise I will tell it to auntie”)

Fajahad: “Bata bata main teri auntie sey darta nahi hoon!”
(Tell her! I don’t afraid from her!)

Shela, who walked down to take class, stopped there

Shela: “Kiya hua? Why you guys are making crowd?”
(What happen? Why you guys are making crowd?)

Farhan: “Yeh maan nahi raha k iski ek cheeni girlfriend hai!”
(He is not telling me the truth that he has Chinese girlfriend!)

Shela: “Cheeni girlfriend!!”
(Chinese girlfriend!!)

Farhan: “Haan cheeni girlfriend!! Is ne khud ne bola tha Unomina!”
(Yes Chinese girlfriend!! He himself said Unomina!)

Fajahad looked up at him. Jaws were dropped down.

Shela: “Farhan!! Tum kaisay best friend it was not younomina a cheeni girl friend it was YOU KNOW ME NA”
(Farhan! What best friend you are! It was not Unomina, a Chinese girlfirnd, it was YOU KNOW ME NA!)

Farhan: “Oh, (he looked then at him who was looking him with loop sided lips) I am sorry.”

Fajahad, folded his hands, looked somewhere else.

Farhan: “I am sorry, Fajahad”

Shela left

Essa: “And you call yourself best friend”

Farhan: Ufone ki sim tujhe tou..
(Ufone’s sim! I will….)

He looked up at Faji and marched forward at left.

Faji ran behind him

The crowd moved away gradually.

While Junaid and Imran "Abay Ufone ki sim, meethi churi tu chal class mein”
(Ufone’ sim! Sweet knife! Come with us in class!)

Fajahad: (jumped on his shoulder and out his hands around from behind) “Haye Meri chamo rani tujhe bura lagta hai mera kisi aur k saath hona!! Haye tu tou meri chamo rani hai chamo rani!”
(Oh my Chamo rani! Aren’t you feel jealous when I am with someone else!! Aww! You are my truly Chamo Rani!)

They were out of library and jumped up to sit on table out of the library

Farhan: “Tang na kar! Tu meray ilawah sub ko time deta hai! That's not fair!! Tujhe Natasha k saath bus stop pe baithna yaad tha par meray saath baatein karna nahi.”
(Don’t disturb me! You give time to everyone except me! That’s not fair! You remembered to sit with Natasha at bus stop but what about gossiping with me!)

Fajahad: “Sorry yaar. Waisay hum dono Urdu parh rahay thay.”
(Sorry yaar. We were studying Urdu, by the way.)

Farhan: “Dekh raha hai.”
(Yeah, I can see.)

Fajahad: “Acha ab tou maan ja

Maan ja na

Maan ja

Maan ja

Maan ja”
(Okay now please get fine

Please

Farhan: “Faji!!! Acha chal theek hai. Liken ek shart hai.”
(Faji!! Okay fine. But only on one condition!)

Fajahad: “Kiya?”
(What?)

Farhan: “Tarawi meray saath paray ga. Meray barabar mein khara hoga aur parhay ga.”
(You will offer Tarawi with me. You should stand beside me and then offer.)

Fajahad: “Theek hai yaar theek hai.”
(Okay friend. Okay)
