Agle din ghar ka mahaul aur bhi rangeen ho gaya kyunki Zoya Aapa ke shohar, Farhan, bhi do din ke liye rukne aa gaye. Farhan ke aane se ghar mein mardon ki tadad badh gayi, aur Salma Bi ke dimaag mein ek naya "khel" shuru ho gaya.

Raat ke khane ka waqt tha. Badi si mez par lazeez khane lage hue the. Ek taraf Arsalan aur Haya baithe the, aur samne Zoya Aapa aur Farhan. Begum Salma mez ke bilkul beech mein baithi thin, unki nazrein sab par thin.
