SHAHID SAIF

It was Friday, as usual after the Juma Prayer i went to work. I needed to finish a lot of work because I left earlier yesterday. I order Arun "Do assign those guards i mentioned you yesterday." He immediately replies "I will Sir." I nod at him.

My phone vibrates and i check the name of incoming caller. Her father's name displays on my screen, Saleem Uncle. I answer the call greeting him as he greets me back.

"Shahid, are you perhaps free right now?" He inquires on the other line. "Yes uncle, I am." I answer. "It's about Shifa." He says making my heart skip a beat.

"Yes Uncle. W-What is it about?" I ask on the other end, waving off Arun to leave the office. "She agreed!!" He states. A pin drop silent. "Shahid? Are you there?" His voice snaps me out of my stunned state.

"Yes!! Yesss I'm here, sorry it's that-" He cuts me off "Don't be shocked, She approached me today after i came back from my business trip. And she announced that she is ready for this relationship. Congratulations mwone. (son)."

"Ah-Ehm, Thankyou for informing me Uncle." I respond and he chuckles. "Don't you think you have to stop calling me uncle from nowonwards?" He asks, and i can't help but smile even though he couldn't see me.

"Yeah sure Uncl- I meant Abu." I say. "Yep, That's perfect." He replies. "Abu, so when should we meet up?" I inquire.

"Today? perhaps if you are done with your work? Or if you are busy we can meet tomorrow." He says. "I'm free Abu, we can meet today." I respond. "Sure, I'll send you the address."

He ends the call. I grab my belongings and storm out of the room. "Arun, Reschedule every meeting i had today for tomorrow." I order him as he nods at me. "But sir, about that one important meeting-" I cut him off, "No more meeting for today, Ah here my card. Give treat for all the employees. It's my treat today." I say handing over my business card.

"Sir does that mean, we have good news?" He asks, "Yes, So treat them well." I reply and he smiles promising that he'll treat all the employees to a splendid dinner.

SHIFA SALEEM

It's been a day that Abu and Shahid talked over the phone. He mentioned he would be calling Shahid, and there is no news or updates which I'm aware of.

To be honest after mansoor's encounter, I was a bit sad hearing those words from him as to how i was not worth and his statement about my body....But all those hurtful words which lingered vanished away when Shahid whispered those words to me.

I am such a simp when it comes to Shahid, Ugh!!!! I kick the pillow. I miss him even more if it's just been a day we saw each other. And I'm so worried why he hasn't contacted or texted me...

I get a notification, when i opened my phone to see who it was, I saw nahima's text. She sent me a video, I click on it. A video of a man cooking from far away. And it only took me a second to realise who it was, a man cooking with the broad shoulder, it was him Shahid. She texted below the video as, "Your lucky to get a man who is cooking!."

I giggle rewatching the same video again and again. I was worried for no reason!!

I get an incoming video call from her, "Girl, can't you make it less obvious. Not replying to my texts and rewatching his video?? Why? Do you already miss him?" She goes on teasing me the moment i answer her call.

"Uhm- but i was wondering where he wass....i haven't seen him after Abu had a convo with him." I state to which she immediately turns on the back camera. "Here he is cooking!" She says. And i could see Shahid's back, his broad shoulder visible on the screen from far away.

"Oh-? He knows cooking?" I direct the question. "Nah, he asked for my help. And i taught him the whole day and he mentioned he is making today's dinner." She replies giggling.

"Your future hubby is studying cooking just for ya." She states raising her voice, to which I could see Shahid turning from the kitchen, and him staring at nahima. Then he goes back to his cooking world. I was just adoring him cooking and that's when Nahima turned off the front camera and her face came into view.

"Ugh, Not your ugly face bitch." I snarl to which she scoffs "That's enough of peeking session with him. Why did you make him wait for you this long bitch?" She directs the question at me.

"Uhm you know simply." I state. "Both dumbos gotta get your ass straight!" She says and continues; "Between, guess whatt. I taught him how to make a pasta, and when he tried it by himself, it turned out to be a Grilled-Ashed Pasta." She laughes her butt off after saying this to which i join with her.

She then approaches Shahid stating: "Brooothaaaa, You know someone was really missing you!!" I move my face to the side so that only my half face was visible on the screen, embarrassed because of having a bitch like this.

He takes a glance and i could see him smirking. "I'm glad." He says."He is going to be your chef." Nahima exclaims teasing both of us. I could see him smiling and he states looking at the camera: "I intend to be her Personal Chef." Before i could notice my own blush nahima raises her voice "This bitch is already blushing!! Oh godd how undecent of you!!" She says as i stay stunned for a second.

"That's not undecent idiot, that's how she expresses her love towards me." Shahid says making me blush even more. As the two siblings teases me, I could feel the heat rising all over me. Nahima rushes outside the kitchen and i dead-stare into her.

"Oyoyoy, You will spare me right girlyyy?" She says pouting. "Get lost!" I snarl at her as she continues to laugh.

^-^-^-^-^

After ending the video call with nahima, Shuhaib barges into my room making me startle. "Can you atleast knock before barging into my room like this." I throw a pillow at him. "There, there, sorry." He says and i tell him to get to the point.

Shahid will be be arriving here within an hour." He says to which i jump out of my bed. Ayesha bhabi and Nazriya bhabi enters my room. "You gotta get ready." They both states.

"Why-Why is he coming over at this late hour?" I ask them, and it was too sudden that nahima didn't even mention anything like that.

"Lets choose which dress she has to wear tonight." Both my bhabhi's scramble over my wardrobe mumbling to each other.

"What's going on all of a sudden." I ask them and all they reply was "He will be here soon so get ready."

I finally get dressed by the outfit they chose for me. They make me sit infront of the mirror, and does my hair, hijab and everything. I stare at the mirror wondering what's going on.

Whenever i inquired them about this sudden meetup, all they said was "A surprise, can't spill it."
