Will you say nothing? What shall I say? After what you've done, any husband would have made a similar decision. You think I'm wrong as well.
You're not only wrong and but you're on the wrong side as well. I believe Rumi. She's not how you think she is…
You believe that girl so much… but what about your daughter, have you given any thought to her happiness? Assumptions that we raise in our hearts… these assumptions eat away at our happiness. These are not assumptions, Saad and Rumi…
Enough… Please! I won't hear one more word about this, nor will there be any argument. Look… try and understand. If you are unjust to your daughter-in-law… she'll tolerate it. But your son-in-law… Why are you trying to destroy your daughter's family? For God's sake, be careful, otherwise, her family will be ruined. Mother, here's your tea.
Thank you, my dear. Tell me, what you're praying for me? I know that you pray for me. My dear, prayers are offered but they are not mentioned. Alright, don't tell me.
Tell me, shall I invite them to dinner? She has grown quite the attitude, so we'll have to invite her to get her here. Let's invite them then. I'll go and get her. You've mentioned my heart's desire. I've been wanting to invite her.
Mother, you didn't tell me… You stay very busy, that's why…
Why are you so formal? For me, the most important thing to me is my mother's happiness, not time. Time can be made. Anyways, prepare a nice dinner and I'll go get Rumi. Alright brother. It seems Haris is back.
Sure… Here is your tea.
Thank you. You seem very happy.
Yes, I am. Rumi is coming tomorrow. Brother Arsal is going to get her. So you're happy to meet your friend. Yes… You are never that happy to see me. Things are different with you. Rumi is my friend. If it weren't for Rumi, then I would never have met you.
You're right. Will dinner be set today, or what?
Sure, I'll serve it right away. I was waiting for Haris. Sister… There was no need to be so rude.
When was I rude? You're very possessive over her. That's why you feel so much. Did you go to meet that girl?
No, I don't know where she lives. She didn't come to work and her number is switched off as well. At least be ashamed. When I talk to mother…
Tell whoever you want. It makes no difference to me. I've changed the password.
Why? Because I wanted to. Is it because of that girl? The girl with who you are cheating on me! Did she call you? Did you talk to her? Can we talk about something else? There are many things we can talk about.
But you're not interested in anything else but that girl Saad and Rumi are having an affair. Things got so heated that Saad left home. Uncle called him so many times, but he isn't picking up. He'd have to turn away from the rest of his relationships when he keeps a relationship with Rumi. For God's sake Maheen, think before you speak! One is the daughter-in-law and the other is the son-in-law of this house!
Why should I think? They are the ones who should think about it! You were friends with that girl too, right?
You're bringing her in between again. I didn't bring her in between, you did! What do you want to say?
I want to say that you're a cheater! You betrayed me… I want to see the shame on your face. Which is something I struggle to find on your face. I committed no sin that I should be ashamed of…
You're justifying your sins! Yes.
We have to do the groceries as well…
Sure, make sure you don't miss anything on the list. That's why I came to you.
What are you guys doing? We were going to make a list…
List, for what? We've invited Rumi, and were short on some groceries. Yes, Arsal… we need to buy some groceries. I'll go and get it, auntie.
No, my dear… you'll get tired. Zaira will buy everything with Haris. She'll buy it?
Yes… What's the problem with that? Haris and Zaira will buy it. Besides the doctors have advised you to rest.
Mother, you must need my card.
Yes… Keep this… Brother Arsal, you remember that you have to pick up Rumi, right?
Yes… Farewell*
Why didn't you tell me that you were going to pick up Rumi? And that there was a dinner being arranged for Rumi. No one mentioned anything to me. You were sleeping and I forgot.
Still Arsal. Humna, what's the matter? If we didn't tell you yesterday, then we told you today. Besides, don't worry. Mother and Zaira will look after all the arrangements. I should get going now. My dear, how are you feeling now?
It's better. Why are you following me?
I want to talk to you, Shahzia. But I don't want to talk to you. Shahzia, please don't do this.
Don't create a scene and go away. Shahzia please, listen to me… What do you want to talk about? Shahzia…
Is there anything left after the way your wife insulted me? I apologize on her behalf.
Do you think apologizing will fix everything? Your wife thinks I'm just any girl, for whom it isn't a big deal to have an affair. Lord knows what you told her about me.
That's not how it is… Then what is it like? Are you sincere with me?
Yes, I am! Will you do as I say to honor me? Yeah sure, ask me! I'm willing to do everything. Then marry me. Tell me… Will you be able to do that? Will you be able to make me your wife? One shouldn't be so stubborn… Saad is better than you for not coming back here and not picking up the phone. I'm sure you must be worried. I don't want to talk to you.
I know very well what's been going on between you two… I'm not answerable to you, do you understand? Let me go… Maheen! Maheen! Maheen! Maheen! Maheen! I'm sorry… please get up… Maheen! Maheen! Oh my God! What happened? Rumi shoved me…
Auntie, I didn't do anything… she was pulling on me and… I'll deal with you later.
Get up, dear…
Maheen, I'm sorry… please get up. Call Nabeel..
Sure, I'll call him. Oh my God… God, please protect my grandson. What are you looking at? Tell the driver to bring the car around! That's quite the tune. I tend to do that when I'm happy.
Oh really, what are you happy about? Rumi is coming today. I understand what you're doing. You know she's beloved, that's why you act as her lackey. Lackey? What need do I have to become her lackey? She's my friend, whatever I'll do for her will be out of love.
Save it… girls nowadays are very cunning. I don't know why you say such things. I just know that you are the elder daughter-in-law of this house, and that's why I respect you. But if you keep this up, then sorry to say, I won't be able to help you.
You know Arsal is my cousin, and this is my uncle's home, but it took me a couple of years to get comfortable here. Look at you, you've just got here and already you have such a sharp tongue. I'm not talking back at you… if you were offended by what I said, then I'm sorry. Please… this is some strategy… saying whatever you want, and then apologizing for it. Forget that… should I make something special for you, or will you eat what I'm making for Rumi.
No, tend to Rumi, I'll order for myself. Thank you…
As you wish. Nabeel, where were you? What happened? Did you have something for me?
I want Nasir group's finance report. That's not yet complete. That is way overdue, where is your attention? You come to work late and leave early. I'm busy with something else. Like what? Are you meeting that girl again? Her name is Shahzia…
I don't care what her name is… just tell me what I'm asking you. Are you meeting her again? How can I… Greetings… What? Sure, we're coming. What happened? Maheen fell and mother has taken her to the hospital. Nabeel… Nabeel. Humna, how can that be? How come you're isolated? Sister Khadija and that girl will kick you to the curb. I think that too… auntie just needed an excuse. She's handed every responsibility over to her. She just came here, and you're the elder daughter-in-law of this house. Talk to Arsal and tell him that this is no way.
There is no point in talking to him. Arsal was waiting for this… He told her that he would give her, his card.
How can he give her his card? Has he gone insane? If he spends all his money on him, then how will he take care of his children? Haris has a job now too, so ask him to divide the expenses. It isn't Arsal's responsibility to pay for everything. Haris has to lend a hand as well. He doesn't listen to me…
You have to make him listen to you. Can't you see the inflation rising? If Arsal doesn't save up, he won't be able to provide good food or education to his children. If for nothing, then he should at least care for that unborn child. Let me tell you, God forbid if this money ends… then Arsal will learn how Haris and sister Khadija will turn away from him. You're right. Time doesn't stay the same. I'll talk to Arsal.
When is Rumi coming? While I was there, she didn't visit once…
Nor did sister Khadija ever invite her. As soon as I left dinners are being arranged for her. I don't know when will I be rid of the dinners arranged for Rumi. Don't worry… everything will be alright and do as I say.
Alright, I'll talk to you later. Farewell. Sure mother alright. Just take care of yourself. Alright. Yes, she's standing in front of me. Yes, I've told father. Okay, farewell. How is Maheen? That worry doesn't suit you.
Please tell me how she is.
What do you care?
You tried everything to hurt her. Hello…
Asad, I didn't push Maheen. How can I hurt someone? Rumi, stop crying, what's the matter?
Asad, no one believes me. Auntie thinks that I pushed Maheen… tell me, can I do that? No… You can't do that… whether someone believes you or not, I do. Please call Nabeel, and ask him how's she doing. I asked Zuni, but she isn't telling me anything. Auntie is attending my call either. I'm on the way to the hospital. Once I reach there, I'll tell you what's going on. Please let me know. Hello Nabeel, is everything alright?
They're operating. My child… My child… I'll talk to you later.
What happened? Rumi… They're operating. I'm about to reach the hospital. Should I come as well?
No… I think you should stay at home. I don't know how they will react to seeing you. I'll be updating you from the hospital. Farewell. What happened?
Sorry, we weren't able to save your baby. And?
There was a risk of poison spreading throughout the patient's body… That's why we had to perform an ovariectomy What does that mean?
We had to remove the ovaries.
Your wife can never become a mother again. Curse you Rumi. You ruined my son's happiness. And Maheen, you didn't spare her as well. What must she be going through?
Please, don't tell Maheen anything right now. How can we hide something so big from her? She should know the truth. No mother, please. On top of her child's death, why do you want to add to her pain? Don't tell her that.
We'll tell her at the right time. Did you call her mother? I called them, they are on their way here.
Since they're coming. Drop me off at home. I'll call Asad and ask what's going on. Maybe he has reached the hospital. Auntie, please tell me how Maheen is… Auntie, what has she done that you're raising your hand on her, in front of me? What has she done? She stole my son's happiness before it could come into this world. She's a witch.
Enough! You can't talk to my sister like this! If you love her so much, then take her away. I don't want a barren daughter-in-law, she did this on purpose. She's jealous of Maheen's happiness, and that's why he did this. Take her away, otherwise, I'll break her face… Enough…
I'm taking her away. I won't leave my sister at your mercy. Come with me…
No, let Asad come… Not at all… I'll talk to Asad, come with me.
No brother. By God's good grace you look lovely.
Thank you, auntie… Auntie, you never praised me that way. Don't say that Human, I've always loved you. Mother, Rumi is here! What happened? Is everything alright? No mother, this is not right. This is Rumi's home as well. You can't oust her over any trivial matter.
This is a trivial matter for you? Because of Rumi, Maheen's child died prematurely. Not only that, Maheen can never become a mother again. That too because of Rumi. They trust Maheen…
It is possible that Maheen had a misunderstanding. It's nothing like that. She's in pain… she wouldn't lie in the state. Maheen has always had a problem with Rumi, maybe that's why she said it.
You don't see anything in front of Rumi.
She's his wife! A husband should be powerful to stop her or say something. Asad wasn't home. Otherwise, auntie wouldn't have done anything like that.
That's no excuse Arsal. When Arsal is home everything's fine, when he isn't home, auntie can do anything with him? Whether I'm here or not, under no circumstances my wife shouldn't feel insecure here. But that doesn't happen! I've told you before that I couldn't live under such circumstances, but you didn't care. Alright then, I'm taking Rumi away and separating from this house. Do you see the words he's saying? He's taken the right decision.
Did sister announce a piece of bad news? Has Rumi returned home? She fought and came back home. I can't believe that Fehmeeda can't control a single girl. Mother, that's how clever Rumi is…. she can't be controlled. My poor Humna has been isolated. She'll have to compete with three now. I can't stop myself from going back. There's no need to go there. We can teach them a lesson from here. How? I'm sure we'll find a way if we think about it. Until then Humna will have to tolerate everyone. We don't have any option but this. But don't worry, we'll do something.
How easily you told him to separate!
You don't let her live peacefully here. You don't see how clever she is… Maheen…
I will not believe that… If you want to believe it, then believe it. What justice is there that you can throw out your daughter-in-law over anything!? Enough Fehmeeda… I'm already very worried… because of what happened between Saad and Rumi. Did you talk to your sister-in-law? I was about to call her and then this happened with Maheen. Saad's phone is turned off as well, this is not a good sign. Saad is under the influence of Rumi… You're saying that like Rumi's a witch of some sort…
You don't know this, but he listens to Rumi. Enough Fehmeeda… don't blame Rumi for everything.
I'm saying nothing wrong. But you and Asad can't see anything. There is no point in talking to you. Nabeel… My child… Rumi did all of this. Control yourself. We can't change what happened. This is what God wanted. She harmed me because she was jealous.
She pushed me on purpose. Nothing can be done now. Why can't we do anything? She's the one to blame. Punish her. What punishment should I give her? She can't stay in the house anymore. What are you saying? That's not possible. Why not? I'll talk to auntie… I won't stay silent… where's my phone… I'll talk to her right now. I need my phone… Maheen, please relax Don't be emotional right now and take care of yourself. She ruined my happiness. I lost my child and you're telling me that I'm being emotional. Aren't you sad about your child's death? What kind of father are you? Why won't you punish the culprit? It's not in our hands to punish someone.
All of that is up to God. Please. Rumi has hurt me. It's good that God… always restricted her from having the joy of having a child. God will bless me with another child… But she will… be deprived of this happiness all her life. She will always plead for a child. There was a danger of poison being spread throughout the patient's body. We had to remove the ovaries. Your wife can never become a mother. She will plead all her life for a child. Nabeel… Where's mother? Call her. She… She was very worried, so I dropped her home..
