SHUMAYLL 

"Yes Marco, I will be there! yes, K bye" I said in my phone rapidly pacing my room 

I was in the study part of the room while Iqra occupied the rest of the room since the guest room was not exactly in the condition to be used like the other rooms that are empty 

unless she wanted to live in the basement, that's fine with me 

I hung up and opened the folder labelled as 'Green Project' 

I had to leave for Europe tonight- 

for this deal 

My bags were usually packed because I had to travel alot 

At times i return in 2 hours! 

Grabbing my jacket, I walked out of the room to the living room 

"Raya, please get my travel bags from my room and the laptop bag from my study-" I said to the maid and she nodded walking away 

"Where are you leaving?" moms voice interrupted me and i screwed my eyes shut 

Oh god!

Turning to her, I grinned and hugged her 

"I love you mom!!" i said and she sighed

"You are leaving aren't you?" she asked me and I smiled sheepishly 

"How long this time?" she asked me, looking up at me with adorable eyes 

she should be an actress i swear!

"Just a day- maybe 3 hours, I don't know- I need to inspect their whole building- 3 of them before I can make analysis on what is to be done-" i said and she sighed rubbing her head 

"Fine- But be back soon and call me each 3 hours max-" she said and i laughed 

3 hours?

Not gonna happen 

"I will call you but i dont promise the 3 hour thing-" i said and she nodded 

She kissed my forehead and said some prayers before blowing them on me 

as usual 

she does it to protect me, as she says so- 

"Jazak Allah Khair!" i said smiling up at her and she nodded

"Wa Iyyakum!" she said pulling my cheeks 

I winced 

"Awwww, mom!! That hurts" i muttered and Iqra, Huma bhabhi and bhai walked into the living room 

"Leaving?" asked bhabhi and I nodded

she smiled before hurrying into the kitchen, probably to get me something to eat

"What deal this time?" asked bhai walking to me 

"Its the UK deal for Kaif Shahaan, the guy with marketing firms- he needs his tech updated, said something went wrong with the server-" I said and bhai nodded

"So where will you live?" asked Iqra walking towards us with confusion 

I smirked internally 

worried much?

"I mean you possibly cannot be living on the streets, dogs will hate you!" she said 

or not 

"No I will be living in a hotel there" I muttered and Raya entered with my things
