Him: Aslam o alikum….keya hal hai?

Me: han main bohat gussa main hoon and i am not talking to my husband?

Him: arry wo kyun?

He thought to play along.

Me: humari larahi hovi hai es leya

Him: hhmm larahi kyun hovi?

Me: ’cause he doesn’t give me enough time *told him the whole story u can read my previous post*

Him: thats really sad and very unlike of him. But jis ko ap larahi samaj rahi ho ap ke husband ne sayad us ko larahi samja hi na ho…aur jahan tak dobara call na karne ki bat hai. ap ne hi bataya ke wo kesi seminar main ja rahe teh. ho sakta hai wo wahan ponch gahe hon aur busy ho gahe hon.

Me: ap yeh decide kar lain ke ap friend kes ke hain phir usi ki side lain.

Him: *laughing* friend tu abviously ap ka hon mager…

Me: *cutting him off* tu bas phir un ki side na lain

Him: acha teek hai…..jahan tak main un ko janta hoon he really wants to talk to you and when you call him he doesn’t want to hang up. phir esa main maslah ho jata hai na. kuch patient bohat serious condition main ate hain esa main un ko wait tu nahi karwaya ja sakta….kabi operation days hote hain 4-5 hrs sometimes more than that wahan lag jate hain. Jab wo seminar se wapis ahe tu dosareh doctors ke patients bi un ko hi check karna pareh kuch bohat serious cases bi teh. Jis ki wajah se wo raat ke 2 baje bed par gahe aur phir parte hi soo gahe aur phir suba 5am jagna para ek emergency aa gahi ti phir dobara soo bi nahi sakeh.

Me: *feeling a bit guilty* i know schedule tora tuff hai mager un ko balance karna caheya. Jab tak priorities set nahi karain ga yeh tu maslah chalta rahe ga.

Him: han belkol sahi keh rahi ho ap….main samjahon ga…

Me: aur un ki saza hai ke suba hospital ne nekalne se pehla muje phone karain gae phir ghar jahain gae

Him: chalain teek hai bool don ga suba teek 8am ap ko call karain ga yani ke ap ke saam ke 7pm

So he gets up at 5am, read namaz, take shower and do a round in the hospital and than leave for the home at around 8am. After half an hour of drive he gets home, does his breakfast and he is off to his clinic. At 2pm he is goes to masjid and after lunch he is back to his clinic. At around 7pm he goes to the hospital, ’cause he does night shifts. He stays in the hospital and they have a room for doctors to relax and sleep so he sleeps in the hospital and if there is any emergency, his staff wake him up otherwise he sleeps through out the night.

What my point behind telling you his routine is that do you think he is too busy to take time out to give me a call. When i call him or he calls me the conversation goes like this:

*after formal greetings*

Him: tabiyat teek hai na….koi maslah tu nahi (for some reason he always ask me if i have some maslah :S)

Me: alhumdolilah belkol teek hon…koi maslah nahi hai

Him: 5 min hold karna…… (*in the background* han keya hova us patient ka…blah blah blah …..)

Me: *holding on to nothing for like half an hour*

Him: *he forgets to add 25 min in his “5min” * sorry janu [wo patient ki condition bohat serious ti] ya phir [patient aa gahe teh]

han bolo ap keya keh rahi ti….

Me: *take a deep breath* app busy hain?

Him: hmmm tohra sa…mager koi baat nahi ap baat karo

Me: nahi its okey ap kam kar lain baad main baat kar lon gi

Him: acha teek hai take care… love you…

and to be honest with myself we always have this kind of conversation….i mean sometimes that hold is more than 30 min and sometimes i become selfish and don’t think about how busy he is and keep the conversation going with all kinds of stupid details of what i did the whole day.

Same thing happened yesterday, we couldn’t talk because there was a serious case. So i kept on waiting for his call but he never called me. So at night around like 3am i called him and he was in a seminar and we had a fight and than i hang up on him ’cause as usual he put me on hold. I didn’t wanted to make it a big deal but i don’t like when he doesn’t even take 5 minutes out from his busy schedule to call me properly. What i mean by properly is without any distractions. Its not that he never calls me but these days i feel like he is ignoring me. After that he never called me and nor i did. Well if you ask me i wana call him, i wana talk to him but that ego thing is stopping me. Am i over reacting?

Well my aunt called and told me that she and mom already selected my wedding dress and asked me if i am coming to see it or not. I asked Mohsin how long he will take ’cause i need to go select my dress but he was like 40 more min :( I thought i am the choosy one. When we finally finished he wanted to go have some ice cream and back of my mind i was thinking (which i told him later on ;) ) “first he took 3 hrs just to select one dress and now he wants to go have an ice cream…doesn’t he know how much fat there is” I was mad ’cause I didn’t get to choose my dress so i refused it. Aunty and mom got a really good choice so I had to trust them, I wasn’t worried but it was a big day and I wanted everything perfect.

He called my sister in Canada to get my phone number and asked her to tell me to stay by the phone. I picked up the phone and it was the first time we talked. After a week he got me our engagement gift…..3 weeks later :S well I kinda asked him but it doesn’t matter.

Word of advice to all girls: If your husband/finance forgets to give you a gift or forget your birthday…just don’t make it a big deal and simply ask. Its just a fact that they don’t pay attention to these small detail like us girls but that doesn’t mean they don’t love us.

He gave me a gold bracelet and a silver ’cause he knew i love wearing silver. He had to give me the gift when we were shopping but somehow he forgot and i saw the gift sitting on the car dash board and i waited and waited and waited but he never gave me and later in the evening he called me and told me that he forgot to give me the gift so we need to meet again. *do you think he planned it…just to meet up again :P*

So finally the big day came, i was in Nikkar getting ready. I told Mohsin to be there at 1pm for photoshoot and i was worried what if he won’t be able to make it. I called him and he told me they just got to the banquette hall and he’ll be in saloon in 20 min.

Another word of advice: If your husband/brother/uncle/neighbor is a doctor and they tell you, they are gona be there in 20 min….it usually means an hour.

I was told, he is not going to come till the nikah is done. My momani came to the saloon with nikah paper for me to sign. After like half an hour Mohsin was in Nikkar and it was around 2pm with two of my cousins who drove him to the saloon. After our photoshoot *which turned out so good alhumdolilah* I sat in the car with Mohsin. As soon as we sat in the car i heard my cousin Mac.

Mac: So do we have a deal.

Mohsin: ofcourse we do but you have to get up right after i look at you.

Me: whats going on :o

Mohsin: oh nothing i’m just having a deal with mac….so mac i’m gona…i mean we are gona take you out for dinner and will give you some gifts as well and ice cream at the end….so DEAL?

Mac: teek hai Mohsin bahi…where are you gona take me for dinner?

Mohsin: jahan bi meri woohti kahe gi

Me: ji nahi….you have to give my sister some money in order to get a seat and mac if you are gona sit instead of ma sis than you are not gona get up till he gives you money…

Mohsin: kesi bevi ho……*he pretended to be sad*….chup kar keh behtoo….dulhan bolti nahi hain

We were arguing when our car stopped at the intersection, people sitting in the next cars were staring as us and must be thinking. A bride and a groom and two guys are arguing….are they getting kidnap or something. lolsss oh well i didn’t know how to behave like a bride…come on it was the first time ;) hahaha

We finally got to the hall and i waited and waited for someone to come and walk me to the bride room but no one came. So i got out of the car and walked quickly to the door *all my cousins plus my husband thinks i ran to the door but i think i quickly walked because it was HOT HOT HOT afternoon*

Well while everyone was having lunch and me sitting on the stage enjoying my lunch i called for a meeting on the stage and warned mac that he is not gona have any kinda deals with Mohsin. My sister didn’t wanted to do the rasam so my cousin agreed to do it instead of her. I told him to forget about the deal and have a deal with me instead. We planned that when mohsin comes to the stage he’ll expect you to get up thinking he got a deal but you can refused right there and ask for 10,000 rupees.

Finally Mohsin came and there was a fun argument, he refused to drink milk. One of his cousin tried to help him out and told my aunt, “Mohsin bahi bakri ka dood peetae hain” and ever since whenever we went to my grandma’s house everyone tease him for that. After that the big show came up, it was so funny both families having a funny argument than Mohsin pulled my cousin Mac up from the seat and sat without paying. After my cousin was physically forced to get up asked him, “do we still have a deal” and mohsin was like, “behta baad main batata hoon…..bohat bare gad-daar ho”. He took out 10,000 rupees and gave it to my sister and my sister was happy that she got it without arguing.

Before shadi we both had a bet……that he is gone give me matahi (sweet) in front of everyone when no one is on the stage. He agreed and added to that we are gona have a snap taken for that moment. I knew he won’t be able to do it ’cause he is so shy.

Me: i know you can’t do it so if you want to give up….you still got time. *few days before mehndi*

Him completely ignoring what i said: so what matahi do you like.

Me: rasgula…but i know you can’t do it….so forget it.

Him: you’ll have to eat the whole rasgullah

Me: oh i am not shy to eat a rasgullah even infront of million people….but i know you….so forget it

Him: we’ll see…

Well right after he sat beside me, he asked one of his sister to bring matahi and he took out a rasgulla and gave it to me. I gave him a hard stare and ate that rasgulla. He totally cheated ’cause the whole stage was filled with my side of family and his side of family. What we both agreed to that he is gona give me rasgullah when there’ll be no one on the stage and he can randomly take a rasgulla and give it to me. But he says we never agreed to the part that he needs to be alone on the stage while giving me matahi. (cheating cheating cheating) We had a big fight on this issue and it’s still not settled… *now you can be the judge of that*. Through out the day we kept on arguing on the stage about this issue. Once he was pointing his finger at me saying, he can do it again and i was like no its too late. My brother-in-law took our photo, Mohsin pointed at me like he is arguing and i am sitting there all sad…..its THE funniest photograph. I told Mohsin i am gona frame it and hang it in our house just to remind him that he started arguing with me from the first day and this is the proof. *evil smile*

We spent three weeks together and we had more than 3 major fights and on stupid things.

And they both live happily ever after…… :o
