Ignored Innocent Heart novel Chapter 22

Rayaan’s POV

“Oye! Wake up! It’s time of Fajr!” I kicked Zamid and Daniyal as they were the closest to me on the floor. There was drool on the sides of their mouths and they were snoring. Daniyal was snoring so loudly that I don’t know how we even slept with all this noise. My kick seems to be in vain as they didn’t even budge from their places by my feet. I kicked them more harshly this time and this seems to work on them. They groggily opened their eyes. They were getting their senses back so I woke the others too.

“It’s time for namaz so you guys better get freshen up so we can go to Masjid.” I said as I walked up to my room. I went to my room’s washroom and did my business and came back downstairs. I waited for some minutes and everyone was down except Zayn.

“Where is Zayn?” I asked to no one in particular.

“I went to hana’s room to wake him up but hana and Zayn were already praying so I came down without informing him.” Zamid said in a monotone voice. I nodded and we made our way to Masjid. As we reach the masjid, we saw all the male elders of our family already in masjid. We did ablution and joined the Jamaat for Namaz.

After namaz, we went back home and everyone went to their rooms to get some more sleep as the day ahead is going to be very hectic for everyone so we decided to get all the sleep that we can before the big day starts.

I saw Zayn’s room door open when I was making my way to my own room. I saw he was already asleep so I shut his door and went to my room. I am really blessed and I feel so grateful to my Allah for all these blessings. Not everyone get to have all these blessings so we should be thankful to our Lord for everything that He has blessed us with. ALLHAMDULILLAH!

Third Person’s POV

At around 10am, a maid went to everyone’s room and woke everyone up for breakfast. Everyone went to the breakfast table. The elders were already done with their breakfast so they were in the lounge area and were having some tea. Hana was late so Hiba asked one of the maids to again go to hana’s room and check on her but Zayn chuckled and stopped his mother.

“Leave it mama! You will see why she is late!” Zayn said this with amusement in his eyes and still laughing. Hiba just ignored her son and shook her head as she was having a feeling that Zayn had once again told hana to do something stupid and hana being hana, She will be doing exactly what Zayn had told her to do! She is a very gullible child and all the cousins were already aware of this so they also waited to see what will happen this time. They actually enjoy the pranks that Zayn usually played on hana. The fun fact was that hana never knew that Zayn was pranking her so it was even more hilarious for them.

Suddenly, all of them heard footsteps so they looked at the top of the stairs. They saw hana in a lehanga with matching hijab without any make-up. She was looking very good but that was not the reason that everyone was shocked. They were shocked that she was in this attire in the morning when the function is going to start at night. When hana came down at the breakfast table, hiba broke the silence by asking the question that was on everyone’s mind except Zayn, Of Course! He was trying to stifle his laughter but everyone ignored him. They already knew that Zayn was behind all this so they waited for hana’s reply.

“Hana Beta! Function raat ko hai abhi nhi! Abhi say kyun lehnga pehn liya? (Hana dear! The function is at night! Why have you worn your Lehnga now, in the morning?)” Hiba asked after getting out of the shock.

“Wo Mamma! Kal mjhay kaam ki wajah say time nhi mila tyaar honay ka tou main abhi hi tyaar ho gayi k agar aj bhi time na mila! Is tarah main kaam bhi kr saku gi or tyaar bhi rahu gi! Raat ko bas fresh ho jao gi! Issi liye main abhi hi tyaar ho gayi! (Actually mamma, yesterday I got no time to change and get ready due to work so I thought what if I won’t get time to get ready today too! That’s why I got ready now so that I can work as well as remain ready for the function too! I’ll just touch up my makeup and all will be clear!)” Hana replied cheekily.

This dumbstruck everyone but Hiba and Asfand felt sad after hearing that. The cousins started making fun of her but Hiba, who was serving breakfast to all the kids and Asfand, who was also watching and listening to all this from the lounge area with all the other elders of the house felt really bad. The elders went back to their tea after shaking their heads at this stupid answer while the cousins started making fun of hana.

“Tumhay tyaar honay ki kiya zaroorat hai! Jo bhi kr lo, same hi lagti ho! Kabhi apnay sar say hijab tou utara nhi hai! Kapray change krnay say kon sa tum change lago gi! (You did not have to get ready! Whatever you do, you still look the same! It’s not like you have ever taken your hijab off! So, changing of clothes won’t make a difference!)” Zarmeena said in a teasing way.

“Haan na! Kabhi baal tou style kiye hi nhi hain! Baal hain bhi k nhi tmharay pas? (Same here! You have never styled your hair! By the way, do you even have hair or what?!)” Hala laughingly asked this. This got all the cousins attention. All of them suddenly chuckled as they all imaged hana as a bald person and it was quiet funny. Even Zayn and Zamid were laughing while imagining even though they have seen hana’s hair multiple times. Hana was just confusedly looking at them as all the cousins just randomly started laughing.

‘lagta hai in ki wires fuse ho gayi hain finally! Ek dusray k sath rahain gay tou esa hi hona tha! FINALLY they all had gone crack! HEHEHE! Pagal log! PFUUHUHUHUH! (Looks like their wires have finally fused! If they will remain with each other then this is to be expected! FINALLY they all had gone crack! HEHEHE! Retarded people! PFUUHUUHUHU!)’ Hana thought and started laughing at this.

“lagta hai tmhay bhi apni tind pr hassi aa gayi! (Looks like you are also laughing at your bald head!)” Samman said still chuckling. All of them were eating their breakfast. Hana had toasts on her plate and she was going to grab the jar of jam from the center of the table but she instantly froze after hearing Samman appi’s comment.

“Tum ghar hi raho gi meray sath! Tm tou subah hi tyaar ho gayi thi is liye ab saloon per janay ki koi zaroorat nhi hai! (You will stay at home with me! You don’t have to go to saloon as you got ready in the morning!)” Zayn again repeated himself. Hana got a scowl on her forehead and she hurriedly tried to make her way to her mother that was already at the door but Zayn grabbed her hand before she can run to their mother.

“Chalo upar! Koi nhi jana tm nay! (Let’s go up stairs! You are not going!)” Zayn said this and started to drag her back towards the stairs. Everyone was just looking at the siblings but was not saying anything. Hiba had an irritated tick on her head because of Zayn but she waited a little to see what hana will do.

“MAMMA! MAMMA dekhain bhai ko! (Mamma! Mamma, look at brother!)” Hana started yelling for her mother while trying to get out of Zayn’s strong hold.

‘Of course! What else will she do except crying and yelling! I don’t know when she will grow up! And I was thinking about getting her married in a year or two but I think I will have to wait some more so that this kid can grow a little more up! UFFF’ Hiba thought with annoyance at both of them. She angrily made her way towards Zayn and harshly tugged at his right ear.

“Chhorho usay! Jab sab ja rahay hain tou hana ko tmharay havalay main kesay kr sakti hoon! Pehlay khud ka khayal tou rakhna seekh lo phir hana ko bhi tmharay havalay kr diya karn gi! (Leave her! If everyone else is going then how can I leave hana woth you!? First learn to take care of yourself and then I will think about leaving her in you care!)” Hiba scolded Zayn and told him to leave hana’s hand. Zayn left her hand and hissed in pain and tried to free his ear from his mother.

“Acha Mama! Ab tou chhorh dain! (Okay mama! Leave me now!)” Zayn said with pleading eyes and hiba finally left his ear. Zayn rubbed his ear and glared at all of the snickering cousins of his. The elders were just shaking their heads but they were also silently laughing.

“Per main bata raha hoon k yeh koi paint nhi krvaye gi apnay munh pr! Menay tmhara munh khud dhulva dena hai agar mjhay koi paint shaint nazar aya! Samjhi! (But I am telling you, she is not gonna get her face painted with all that makeup! I will wash your face myself if I saw even a bit of paint on your face! Got it!?)” Zayn said this with a warning tone in his voice to hana. Hana pouted and shook her head in negative. Zayn just glared at her but remained silent.

“Khamosh raho tm tou! (You better keep quite!)” Hiba said this in a scolding tone and grabbed hana’s hand and took her outside. Everyone also followed them out and started the cars to drop the girls at Saloon. After dropping the females, the males got back at the villa and they also started to get ready.
