Let me Hate you by Anjaani (the reading list .TXT) 📗

"I wanted to formally introduce you to your sisters-in-law, Hania and Ishaal. You might have met them yesterday." They gave a genuine smile while being introduced.

"Nice to meet you Asmaira, Mummy told you still needed time. That's why we didn't meet earlier," Hania said while looking at Fariya. "If you need anything you can call us anytime" Ishaal added. Both seemed to be polite and easygoing. 

Were they good to her also? Asmaira thought. 

They spoke about everything, mostly Hania and Ishaal did the talking, while Asmaira was quiet and answered either by nodding or shaking her head.

So unlike her, will she be able to handle the responsibility? Fariya couldn't help but have the same thought again and again.

After evening tea, Fariya was in her study looking out of the window, looking completely lost. After a very long time in her life, Fariya's face showed new emotion; fear. Hania and Ishaal were also there along with her. Not knowing how to console their mother who was lost in thought. 

"Mummy, what about Kabir?" Ishaal broke the silence. Though Hania was warning her not to talk about Kabir now.

Fariya glanced at her, "It's time for him to meet Asmaira". Though she was still hesitant. How will Amaan react? Thinking about how her son would react to the new changes. 

"What about Amaan then?" Hania could not help asking.

This time with a cold expression, Fariya said, "If he took the responsibility before instead of running away, we would not have taken the step. He lost the right to have any say to it."

Hania and Ishaal know their mother's temperament. Not even Salar, a ruthless business dare to disobey her.

Ignorant Asmaira doesn't know, a storm is coming.
