"Hiba?" I flinched when he called for me

"Hiba?" I flinched when he called for me. He really wants to start a conversation I guess and I am a bland woman who is just sitting silently trying not to get involved.

Its been 15 minutes since we left his office after his meeting and now we are on our way home and its super awkward to sit like this silently while he wants to talk.

I just hum in response and I could see him lean back from the side of my eyes. He didn't say anything until we reached the traffic and the red light turned on.

"I'll design you an abaya" he said again and it took a minute for my brain to process the information.

"Why?" I asked because I am very sure that I don't need more abayas and why would he design me one?

"I cant?" He asked me back and I fell into deep thought. He can design an abaya for me but do I derseve this? A designer abaya?

"I-I mean.....why s-so suddenly?" I questioned and he started the car when the light turned green and he hummed in response before speaking again.

"It's been months since we made a new clothing design for our industry so I thought I'll take the matter in my own hands and hence I came to a conclusion that I will design an abaya.....based on your needs" he finished and and I processed it in my mind staring at his face.

He really does wants to make an abaya for me but not because he wants to, he has to because if he will not then his company sales will go down and it will be a great loss to him.

There's no way anyone would make a designer abaya willingly for me.

"So....w-what should I do?" I couldn't find the right words and spoke just what came in my mind. He chuckled in response and stopped the car then looked at my face, I was still staring at him shamelessly.

"Lets disscus it in our room biwi. Lets go inside now, we have reached" he opened the car's door and went outside leaving me in a flustured and confused state. When did we reach home and how will he discuss it?

I shake my head to let the negative thoughts out and came out of the car. I ran inside and went inside the open door to see Mr Baig on the cough with Noor on his lap, playing with his hair and Mr Baig's eyes closed, he is just sitting there quietly letting Noor do whatever she wants.

I smile at their sweet bond and made my way inside the house. I was about to enter the kitchen but Ammi came in front of me and I greeted her.

"Asalam alikum Ammi" I said and she nodded with a smile.

"Walikum asalam beta! How was your visit? To his office?" Ammi asked exitedly and I smiled before replying.

"It was good. Unexpectedly everyone knew I was his....w-wife" I hesitated at the end to denote myself as his wife. He wont ever accept me. Never ever.

"Of course. It was on the news!" She exclaimed and my eyes widen is shock. Was it on the news? My ugly face?

"I-it was....why?" I asked her and she made a confusing face.

"What do you mean by why? He is a business man Hiba, of course everything he does is displayed on the news" she explained but before I could say anything someone hugged my leg and that certain someone was Noor!

"Ammi! I missed you so much! Where were you the whole day!?" She yelled and I kneel down to pick her up in my hands and she gladly spread her hands for me to pick her up.

She hugged me wrapping her arms around ny neck and I patted her back. I eyed Ammi that I'll go to Noor's room and make her sleep and she nodded in understanding.

"I'm sorry baby. Ammi was with Abba in his office. It got late coming home" I explained To her but she didn't reply instead her hold on my neck loosened.

I walked upstairs and entered her room. I could hear her soft snores indicating that she fell asleep. She already ate dinner , thanks to Ammi.

I silently place her on the bed and cover her body with her blanket till her neck. I placed a soft kiss on her forehead and smiled looking at her face.

Oh, how I love being a mom!
