SHUMAYLL 

It's been two days since we talked about her feelings, I knew she needed time but what left me wandering was why she had such a low self esteem? 

she was pretty and amazing in every way- so why the negativity? 

did someone or something happen that shes not telling me?

I lay back on my bed and stared at the tall ceiling 

The AC was off and the windows were open, letting the end of Jan air into my room 

the temperature was high and it was hot but who cares!

Iqra moved out of my room to stay in the guest room but her scent sorta lingered back in my room 

she did not seem to have touched anything except the TV rack and the bed- 

"Helloo Shumayll!" said Stan coming into the view 

"Hey Stan" i muttered and he grinned

"She moved out eh" he said and i sighed

"You spoke to her inspite of me telling you not to, you told her things you were only meant to know and you expect me to be happy with you?" I asked Stan and he laughed 

"Yes- apparently yes, I knew you were too much of a coward to tell her so i did- I only pushed the matter, you and her took it to another level- i see things are working out between the two of you?" he asked and i smiled knowingly 

yes 

"Maybbee?" i made it a question and he chuckled

"Oh the way you both smile, makes it obvious you are head over heels for each other!" he said and i sighed

"Stan, go do something on your own" i said and he saluted me before disappearing 

I got up and hit my Macbook on 

I was working on the new design of the latest computer program 

I was busy running the programs when a knock came on the door 

"come in" i said and continued on programming 

"Riza aunt wants you downstairs now" said Iqra and i could not glance at her because if i did, i would lose my work 

tapping away on my keyboard, i nodded

"yeah, tell her i will be down as soon as i finish work" i said, keeping my eyes glued to the screen 

Something was wrong with the algorithm of this program, it was not exactly following the commands 

I saved whatever i had done so far and stood straight, stretching out 

Closing my MacBook, i walked out of my room to the living room downstairs 

"As salaam mom, what happened?" i asked her and she smiled at me 

"You do remember that Waarith is coming today, right?" she asked me and i facepalmed myself 

i was suppose to pick him up 

"Uhh i forgot" i muttered and she sighed

"No problomo bro!" his voice came and i turned to the side to see him grinning
