And.......HELL broke loose
next morning, right after the breakfast when Farida was washing dishes,......
only when Ruthba and Insiyaa just entered the kitchen.....not to question her even though that was the exact plan......but casually trying to get something useful out of her,
Farida's water broke that moment.
Like all of a sudden!
In the middle of the kitchen.......
Poor girl,......first of all she was no older than Insiyaa and heavily pregnant.
second, she must have suspected something was wrong by the way three people were eyeing her from early morning......and she got nervous!
third, Tayiji and other was eyeing her with immeasurable disgust as if she was seeing at some sick stray dog dying.......
"bhaad mein jaye tu or ye tera baccha, pata ni kaha se ayaa.....mein iski jimmidari ni lene wali, apna saman utha aur abhi nikal ja yaha se, aur bahar jaake mar, yahan koi tamasha ni chahiye mujhe, shaadi hone wali hai iss ghar mein'' She came in to the kitchen and started screaming
[ You or that child of yours may rot in hell, I don't know where this came from, i don't care......I am not going to take responsibility for this, take your things and just leave from here immediately and get out and then die, I don't want any drama here in my house when something auspicious is going to take place here in this house, in few days ]
and after she done threatening her in her screeching voice, she left.......out of rage she didn’t notice Ruthba and Insiyaa was behind the wall hearing her. Now....... Ruthba Rahil was always a very calm, composed and collected person, very opposite to her sister who was outspoken and rude sometimes, always led by emotions and impulses.....but right that moment the amount of anger and hatred Insiyaa saw in Ruthba's face towards that woman was really something.
To be honest..... That woman was hideous and Ruthba was lucky that she got to see her real nature before anything more could have happened.
"what was baba thinking before coming here, let alone agreeing to this marriage......people don't even treat their animal like this" Insiyaa asked whispering, blinking away her tears.......Ruthba was just as much in shock, appalled by the Tayiji's behaviour
''now is not the time, Insu, we will talk about this to Baba after sorting this mess out'' Ruthba said and rushed out to help her as well as Insiyaa herself......out of pity and kindness. They looked at each other and decided it wasn’t the right time bring up that topic.
"Ya Allah,......Shawkat was already frustrated because he didn't get much sleep last night and now he would be angry as hell" Insiyaa thought
......they knew he wouldn’t tell Baba and Rahat about what they discovered last night, just yet.
Rahat arrived at dawn by flight that same night,.......he and Baba was out of the city for some kind of business, which no one had no idea about, Insiyaa never knew they have any business here in Pakistan......and they left Shawkat with the Girls, who was annoyed by the fact, so he was waiting out of the house, at first he thought about sleeping and thanks to his sister, he couldn't,....now he was out smoking by their Jeep and browsing through the Internet.....
Shezaad was nowhere to be found that day, he went out before dawn as well.
A painful whimper left her mouth and Insiyaa groaned......pulling her hand out of the Burkha she pulled out her temporary phone and handed it to Farida and ordered....."here call your husband, NOWWW"
Farida gasped in shock......face full of tears as well.
"yes, we got to inform him, now call him, i'm sure he wouldn’t take Ruthba's voice reassuringly " Insiyaa said in deadpanned look
''Insu wait, we have to take her to the hospital, don’t have much time"
"And who's going to take responsibility after that.....we are new here, remember, nobody knows us and how are we going to pay, you heard your would be mother-in-law she wouldn’t take any responsibility at all" Insiyaa argued looking frustrated
''yeah,.....that's right, first you provoke everyone and then back down!" Ruthba glared at her and Insiyaa looked extremely offended....
"haan to mujhe thode hi pata tha ke aisa hoga" She yelled
[ how am i suppose to know this would happen ]
"well shit.....I'm gonna go out to get Shawkat, DO NOT move an inch from here'' Ruthba said and left running
"yes, please" Insiyaa said, trying to get Farida up on her feet.
"now, farida.....I'm gonna help you but it's you who have to try to cooperate and get up, we are taking you to hospital, okay"
"Aisa ni hona tha.....'' She whimpered out with great difficulty, clearly was in pain.....furiously blinking, trying to keep her tears at bay
[ this wasn’t suppose to happen ]
"Kya ni hona tha ?" She asked
[ what wasn’t suppose to happen ]
Insiyaa gritted out in anger.....she was half expecting her confession about the lies about this f****d up family they got stuck in but no......
''ye athwa mahina chal raha hai......'' She said again trying to control her breathing
[ this is only 8th month ]
and Insiyaa froze
She whispered and paled instantly....
"Pre__mm_mature d_elivery"
her trance broke when a whimper and silent sob came in her ear......Farida looked flushed and she was visibly shaking from crying and possibly from trying to control the pain, which is practically impossible......
"listen... I'm not expert as doctors though but still,....take deep breaths, calm down, i think you are stressing the baby out" Insiyaa said looking at her......
"your husband will be here any minute, now" Her voice was like a faint soothing whisper to Farida in her pain
She did calm down a bit.......then froze!
