She excitedly waits in the cafe looking at the door every other second.

"Why is she that excited?". Hamood asked Imaan

Imaan smiles softly, "Just wait for it".

The door opens again and this time Hawaa eyes widen when she finds her father (real) entering inside. She leaves her seat running towards him hugging him tightly.

"I missed you, Abbu". She said softly holding him tighter

Her father smiles wrapping his arms around his now-grown daughter after so many years of hoping he could. His eyes fill with tears as he enjoys holding his daughter feeling as if she was still that small little baby he held the day she was born.

"I missed you too, beta". He said hoarsely from trying to stop his tears

"That's her father". Hamood said watching them turning to Imaan who was also crying

Hawaa takes her father handing walking back to their seat.

"How have you been?". She asked smiling

"I am sorry about everything, beta. I wish I can stop it". Her father said sadly

"Arey Abbu, don't be sad". She said softly, "We can meet again now with no one stopping us. I am happy about that only".

Her father nodded, "What about your mother?".

"I don't consider her that". She replied

"Beta-". Her father started

"Leave that. Tell me did you marry someone?". She asked curiously

Her father chokes on his drink-making her giggle, "I take that as a no then".

"Beta". Her father said

"It's fine. I just wanted to know. How about marrying again?". She said happily

"No-". Her father started

"Nah, you don't get to say. I will manage everything on my own". She said grinning

Her father sighs, "You are exactly like me. You don't listen to anyone".

She smiles even brighter, "That's the best thing I have heard in my life".

Her father smiles, "How is your husband?".

She shrugged, "He is good".

"What does that mean?". Her father asked frowning

"I will tell you someday". She replied

Hamood watches her smiling so beautifully for the first time in his life. Granted they grow in the same place and he had seen her growing but he had never seen her being this happy. Her lips into a sweet and cute smile. Her face and eyes glistening like that.

"It's because of her father". Imaan said, "She had always longed for her in her life but she was banned to ever meet him. I have her talk to him a few times in which she always cries for him but there was no way she can meet him without putting him in danger".

"How?". Hamood asked

"Her mother's husband had power and influence so he took Hawaa away from her father and her complete custody over to his name. He placed a ban on them to ever see each other which with his dis-owning her finally came to end". She explained
