rehmans left sock

hii!! you guys r lwk creative w these lmaoo.

—The engagement announcement nearly ended Iqbal. rehman didn’t even tell him privately. he waited until a gathering, pulled ulfat to his side, and casually announced they were getting married, then he spent the rest of the evening standing far too close to her while pretending not to notice how unusually quiet Iqbal had become.

—After getting engaged, rehman started bringing ulfat to everything. Military dinners, political functions, charity galas- if Rehman received an invitation, ulfat was automatically coming too. Iqbal quickly realized there would be no escaping her, which somehow made things both better and worse.

—Whenever rhman arrived somewhere with ulfat on his arm, he looked ridiculously pleased with himself, not because he was trying to show off, but because he genuinely couldn’t believe she had agreed to marry him. unfortunately for Iqbal, the result looked exactly like showing off.

—Rehman loved introducing her as his fiancée. Not ulfat.. not miss so-and-so.. His fiancée. every single time. even when everyone present already knew who she was. Iqbal started mentally preparing himself for the day the title changed to “my wife.”

—The first event after the wedding was unbearable. Rehman spent the entire night calling her his wife at every available opportunity. “My wife thinks this.” “My wife said that.” “Ask my wife.”… By the end of the evening, Iqbal was considering requesting a transfer.

—Ulfat occasionally noticed rehman grinning at Iqbal for seemingly no reason. ulfat honestly never understood why, and rehman never explained. he knew exactly why he was smiling and intended to take that secret to the grave.

—The pregnancy announcement was somehow worse than the wedding. rehman looked happier than Iqbal had ever seen him. he spent weeks talking about baby names, nurseries, and future plans. every conversation felt like another reminder that his life with ulfat was moving forward beautifully.

—When ulfat was pregnant, rehman became ridiculously protective. If she stood too long, he found her a chair. If she looked tired, he wanted her resting. If she mentioned being hungry, food appeared within minutes.. poor Iqbal had to watch this devotion unfold in real time.

—Rehman absolutely flaunted pregnant ulfat. Not maliciously- he was just proud. Proud of her, proud of their family, proud of the future they were building. The fact that Iqbal had front row seats to all of it was simply an amusing bonus.

—The first time rehman showed people an ultrasound picture, he carried it around like a prized possession. he forced everyone to look at it. especially Iqbal. The major stared at the image politely while rehman beamed like he’d personally invented fatherhood.

—When Naieem was born, rehman became even more insufferable. every conversation somehow returned to his son. every photograph was of his son. ev very story involved his son. If Iqbal asked an innocent question, he received a twenty-minute answer featuring Naieem.

—Rehman adored handing naieem to ulfat in front of people. something about seeing his wife holding their child made him visibly softer. (not misogynistic or anything) unfortunately, it also created one of the most painfully domestic and happy scenes imaginable for Iqbal to witness.

—Naieem inherited ulfat’s eyes, which rehman never stopped talking about. every time someone mentioned it, rehman acted like he’d personally won an award. Iqbal eventually learned to leave conversations the moment genetics became the topic.

—As naieem got older, rehman started bringing him everywhere. one moment Iqbal would be attending a perfectly normal gathering.. the next? rehman would walk in carrying his son while ulfat followed beside him, creating the picture perfect family Iqbal never wanted to think about.

—years later, rehman still occasionally caught Iqbal staring at his family with a strange expression. not bitterness. not even resentment.. just something wistful. rehman would pull Ulfat closer, ruffle naieem’s hair, and think to himself that life had turned out remarkably well for one of them.

hii, im so happy you liked it!! sure! heres hcs of rehman making iqbal suffer for liking his wife ☹️

—Rehman started calling Ulfat over for no reason whatsoever. She could be in the middle of a conversation with Iqbal, and suddenly Rehman would shout her name from across the room. When she walked over, he’d have nothing important to say. He just wanted her attention.

—One night, Rehman caught Iqbal looking at Ulfat for a fraction too long. He said nothing at the time. Instead, he spent the entire evening being obnoxiously affectionate with her. Every smile, every touch, every inside joke was delivered like a personal attack.

—Ulfat remained blissfully unaware while Rehman and Iqbal carried on an entire silent war around her. Rehman would grin every time she chose to stand beside him. Iqbal would pretend not to care. Neither man ever acknowledged what was actually happening.

—Whenever Ulfat complimented Rehman, he immediately looked at Iqbal. Not subtly, either. If she called him handsome, clever, or impressive, Rehman would wear the most satisfied expression imaginable while Iqbal contemplated every bad decision he’d ever made. (yes, hes insufferable)

—Rehman developed a habit of asking Ulfat ridiculous questions in front of Iqbal. Things like, “Who’s your favorite person here?” or “Who do you trust most?” Ulfat always answered him without hesitation. Rehman always looked far too pleased with the response. (like i said, insufferable)

—Sometimes Rehman would casually mention plans he had with Ulfat. Nothing extraordinary. A dinner. A trip. A family event. The details themselves weren’t important. What mattered was reminding Iqbal that she was woven into every part of his life.

—Ulfat once rested her head on Rehman’s shoulder because she was tired. Rehman nearly laughed when he saw Iqbal’s expression freeze for a split second. He spent the next hour acting like the most beloved husband in existence.

—The worst part was that Rehman wasn’t insecure. He never worried Ulfat would choose someone else. That’s exactly why he found the situation funny. There was no competition. He’d already won. Iqbal was suffering over a battle that didn’t even exist.

—Whenever Ulfat defended Rehman during arguments, he acted unbearably pleased. He’d sit back with the smugness of a man who knew exactly how loved he was. Across the room, Iqbal would suddenly become very interested in whatever drink he was holding.

—Rehman occasionally referred to Ulfat as “my wife” even before they were married. It started as a joke between them. The first time he did it in front of Iqbal, he watched the Major go completely still. Naturally, he never stopped afterward. (he was so petty, im crine)

—One evening, Rehman draped his coat over Ulfat’s shoulders when she complained about being cold. Ulfat thanked him with a smile. Rehman immediately looked toward Iqbal and had to bite the inside of his cheek to stop himself from laughing. (petty rehman striked again)

—The more obvious Iqbal’s feelings became, the more affectionate Rehman got. Not because he was threatened, but because if a man was going to have a crush on his future wife, then he deserved to suffer a little for it. (it wasn’t just little.. he suffered a LOT)

hiii! yes i can!

—He refuses to let her lift anything heavy when it’s that time of the month. Ulfat could be carrying something tiny, a flower pot, a grocery bag, a chair. Doesn’t matter what is it. Suddenly it disappears from her hands. Rehman stands beside her holding it. It annoys her at times because she’s no damsel in distress, but she wasn’t stupid enough to not let her husband be her butler for a week.

she was an independent woman but she was smart too! if a man’s there to do the work, he can. it was not worth ruining her manicure.

—Rehman acts like her cramps personally offended him. He cannot fight them, he cannot threaten them. he cannot negotiate with them, Therefore he hates them. It’s irrational, yes, but when has he ever cared about that when there was anything concerning or hurting his wife.

—He becomes the enemy of anyone who disturbs her naps. ESPECIALLY the boys. If Ulfat is sleeping: nobody makes noise. Nobody. Not even Faizal... which is saying something. no one tries to disturb her either, who would want to face rehmans wrath anyway.

He took nap times very seriously.

—Rehman took Ulfat’s nap time really seriously because if she (god forbid!) ever was disturbed and not able to get her daily rest.. she would be terrifying. like actually. The type where one stare gave rehman instant chills. In the past, when she couldn’t get her sleep, she got so irritated and mad at rehman, she actually kicked him out of the house and locked him outside. yes.

locked him outside the haveli. far fetched? maybe. Uzair had to show up an hour later with a spare key, trying to hold his laugh.

—His favourite solution is cuddling… not medicine, not tea, not even heating pads. Cuddling. Every problem can apparently be solved by putting his wife against his chest and refusing to let her move. according to Rehman, this is medical science, and he seems to excel in it!

—After thirty years, it’s become routine. the boys know, the staff know, ulfat knows, rehman knows. Every month, for a few days, the feared politician and businessman transforms into a very dedicated husband whose entire personality becomes these constant phrases:

“Has my wife eaten?”

“Has my wife rested?”

“Why is my wife standing?”

“Who let my wife do that herself?”

and i find tbis dynamic really cute so here are some longer ones!

—He becomes unusually patient with her moods. now rehman is not a patient man by nature. he never has been. most people know that already by working with him or just being associated with him, but when Ulfat is on her period, it’s like he deliberately lowers his defenses and prepares himself for whatever mood comes his way.

If she’s irritated? he lets it go.

If she’s emotional? he listens.

If she’s upset over something that wouldn’t normally bother her, he doesn’t dismiss it (not that he normally would anyway). the boys find this hilarious because they’ll watch their father tolerate behavior from their mother that nobody else on earth could get away with. Rehman would never admit it, but he understands that she’s already uncomfortable and hurting, so he sees no reason to make things harder for her.

—He gets strangely protective at night.

The nights are always when he worries the most. during the day, she keeps herself occupied and distracted with house work (barely) or the kids who love following their mother around. At night, the discomfort is harder to ignore. there have been plenty of nights where Rehman woke up simply because she shifted positions too many times in her sleep.. he’ll open his eyes, immediately realize she’s uncomfortable.

Ulfat often tells him to go back to sleep.. he never does.

Instead, he would stay awake, rubbing her back, gently playing with her hair or simply holding her closer until she finally falls asleep. only then does he allow himself to rest.

—He secretly enjoys taking care of her. he would deny this if anyone asked.

not loudly, not aggressively, but it’s true.

bot because he enjoys seeing her uncomfortable, obviously. he hates that part! what he does enjoy is having an excuse to look after her without her arguing quite as much. because normally, Ulfat is fiercely independent. she’ll insist she can do things herself. she’ll tell him to stop fussing around and about her. she’ll roll her eyes whenever he becomes overprotective (and he did that bit a LOT).

During her period, she still protests, but she’s usually tired enough to let him win occasionally, and Rehman absolutely takes advantage of that.

—He takes her complaints seriously, even when she doesn’t. one thing that frustrates Ulfat endlessly is that Rehman refuses to dismiss her discomfort.

If she mentions a headache, he’ll remember it, If she mentions cramps, he’ll remember it, If she casually says she’s tired, he’ll remember that too. hours later he’ll still be checking whether she’s feeling better. meanwhile Ulfat has already forgotten she mentioned it..

Rehman hasn’t.

Because when it comes to her health, his memory is annoyingly excellent. that memory bit annoys her at times, because where is this memory ehen she tells him to buy coriander before coming home from work?

—He still finds her beautiful… this is probably the most personal one.

Ulfat has days where she feels terrible. Bloated, uncomfortable, tired, emotional, and generally unlike herself, Rehman genuinely doesn’t see what she sees. to him, she’s still the woman he fell in love with at nineteen. (a random hc in bw is that im imagining they fell in love as teenagers?)

so when she complains about looking awful or feeling unattractive, he looks genuinely confused, not because he’s trying to flatter her, but because he honestly doesn’t understand why she thinks that. thirty years later (im assuming they’ve been married for this long), he still looks at her with the same softness that made her brothers suspicious of him when they were young.

and Ulfat knows it.

—Rehman was not having it at all. He was known for being territorial over things he kept close to his heart— in this case, Ulfat. But rehman happened to be a very petty man, so instead of keeping Ulfat locked away from the major, he would flaunt her around on his arm. Bring her to every political event possible and make sure Iqbal saw. He would go as far as calling Iqbal over for tea and have iqbal watch rehmans arm behind ulfats seat while rehman sat smugly.

—(Assuming Iqbal wasnt married at this point), Rehman would encourage Iqbal to get married, even telling him that Rehman would help him find a wife. Most of this happened when Ulfat was around. Iqbal hated it. Rehman had the time of his life. Ulfat was confused why her husband looked so happy while the major looked liked he wanted to increase his bodies. (kills)

—Rehman would randomly tell Ulfat stories about Iqbal’s merciless killings. Did he miss out on the part where the traitors and criminals were killed? yes! Ulfat didnt have to know unnecessary details :D She just needed to be horrified of Iqbal, and it worked. Ulfat looked like she had just seen a ghost. Rehman would cuddle her to sleep then.

(this last one is total crack, so assume that all three of them are teens but like in the 2000s—2010s)

—Rehman would post Ulfat on his stories all the time. They were cute. Iqbal would take screenshots and crop Rehman out of them. Rehman would be pettier and create a close friends story and add ONLY Iqbal to them and post more intimate stories. Like hugging Ulfat, or holding her waist, or kissing her, or them doing other coupley stuff.

Iqbal proceeded to block Rehman.

Rehman blocked Iqbal from Ulfat’s account.

Iqbal created a fake one and Followed Ulfat again.

Rehman never knew.

Small victory for Iqbal there🫡

hii omg, im sorry for replying so latee but here are some rehmanxulfat hcs!

—When they argue, Rehman sleeps facing away from her. Not because he’s angry, but because if he looks at her, he’ll forgive her too quickly. The longest this has ever lasted is twenty seven minutes

Ulfat timed it once. She liked being petty about it.

—If Ulfat cries, Rehman genuinely forgets how to function. Not dramatic crying or faking it just because he said “woukd you still love me if i was a worm” was a very unreasonable question.. Real crying. The kind where she genuinely gets hurt. He completely falls apart internally. (we saw this bit in the movie too)

—The first time Rehman made serious money, he bought Ulfat something. Not himself, her. since during the years he had absolutely nothing, she stayed anyway. That fact never left him.

—Sometimes Ulfat wakes up in the middle of the night and finds Rehman awake.. just watching her. it’s creepy, she tells him this regularly.

He never stops.

—Rehman has seen Ulfat in expensive designer clothes. In wedding outfits. In formal clothes, yet his favourite version is still her in old house clothes with messy hair. Because that’s his Ulfat. (though he loves when she dresses up all fancy. he turns freaky..)

—Ulfat never asks Rehman for expensive things. Never has, probably never will, which is pretty unfortunate because buying her things is one of Rehman’s favourite hobbies.

—Rehman genuinely cannot sleep properly if Ulfat isn’t beside him— not because he’s incapable of functioning without her. He can. He just doesn’t want to?

The quality of sleep is significantly worse without his wife by his side.

though i wouldn’t be shocked if it is just me because ive never seen anyone talk about this lmao but has anyone ever thought about ulfat x iqbal?

at first i just found them really visually appealing honestly but i tried to think of a story line and smt like that iqbal and rehman and ulfat have known each other since they were in their late teens or early 20s and iqbal had always wanted ulfat and rehman didnt know like fully but he got the hint eventually. rehman ends up getting married to ulfat and iqbal keeps trying to one up rehman for the rest of his life im crine. iqbal does get married eventually and have a daughter but (going w this because he’s a cruel man) he didn’t really specifically care for them too much and still always had a spot for ulfat. and everytime he would visit rehmans place, his eyes woukd always find ulfats.. am i thinking too deep. DO U GUYS SEE IT TOO PLEASEE.

or like another plot being that iqbal had his eyes set on ulfat before and they were going to be arranged together for marriage but rehman had ulfat fall for him instead? iqbal was always bitter? ulfat knows abkut tbis little crush but out of respect for her marriage she never really says or does anything about it, but just for a little attention she would catch iqbals eye across the room or her fingers woukd touch his while serving him tea every once in a while to keep him attached.

i havent been able to write much because of my finals, but i’m finally FINALLY done! however, it’s like my minds in a creative slump. I like to write for personal satisfaction n all but also since i love when people read my work! is there anything u guys wanna read about 😥

(sorry ive never done this before)

—Hii! back with another fic because i just cannot get enough of rehmat! this one is slightly longer and i haven’t properly edited it so please don’t mind some errors!

—fluff only!
