Pyar Ki Love Story | Short Stories | 1st Book |

13) 🍂

Today was a very pleasant day. Even though his morning started with disaster.

He woke up late, getting ready in hurry he bumped his toe to the feet of the bed, as he was already late, he didn't had his breakfast and left for his office. Traffic made him more late

Today was a bad day but not according to Mohib who was still happy even after all these tragedy

"Someone seems happy today?" Palwasha couldn't help but ask as she saw Mohib sitting by himself in the park, she decided to sat with him

"I am!" Mohib gave her a glance then again looked in front of him

"May I know the reason?"

"I was thinking about you."

"I-I mean.. what you said other day." He quickly changed his words

"About that day when you said having a sensitive partner who cares about you is better that a careless crooky partner."

"I have decided to break my engagement with Shanaya." His confession made Palwasha's eyes wide as she looked at him

"Mohib... I.. I didn't meant it for your to break your engagement... I mean if you and Shanaya have some differences then talk about it with each other, is tarah se rishte nahi thorhe jate." Stuttering she explained, she could never imagine Mohib breaking his engagement just because of her stupid words which she said out of anger

(You can't break a relationship like this.)

Mohib loves Shanaya so much how can he do that

"Yeh rishta kafi salo se ek tarfa main hi nibha raha Hoon."
(I'm the only one who is trying to work on this relationship.)

"Aur waise bhi tumhe nahi lagta ki I deserve a person who really loves me.. not the thought of the love." Being in love with someone and being in love with the thought of someone loving you is two different things

(And don't you think..)

Shanaya belonged to later category which Mohib has realized now

"If you are this adamant that means you have found that person..." Palwasha didn't know from where this thought came from but the way Mohib's eyes glint made it clear that he had

"You have?.. really? Who is she?" She fully turned her attention to him, wanting to know about that girl

"Waqt aney pe Bata dunga." He gave her a small smile

(I'll tell you in time.)

"Ussey bataya?" She again asked

(Did you told her?)

"Ussey bhi sahi waqt aney pe bata dunga."

(I'll tell her too in time.)

"That girl must be very lucky." This was her heart's sentence. She has always thought of Shanaya as lucky when she saw how Mohib tried to keep her happy but Shanaya had no knowledge of real love. Now she hopes that his girl is genuinely deserving of his love

"I'll be the luckiest if she said yes."

"I don't think she will have any reason to refuse you..."

"Umeed toh aisi hi Hai..." Mohib sentence was interrupted in middle when the clear and sunny day was suddenly took over by grey clouds

(I hope so...)

"Lagta Hai barish hogi.." looking up n the sky, Mohid said

(I think it will rain.)

"Um! No, actually I have saw the weather forecast and .... Forget it what I just said..." As Palwasha was explaining him what she saw in weather forecast, the grey clouds thunder and dropped some water droplets down

"Let's got it home before weather gets worse..." Mohib suggested as they both got up to leave,

Leaving the park, Palwasha was about to take steps toward her house when she saw a black car stopping on front of Hussain mansion which made her stopped too

The door of backseat opened, first a sleek black shoes stepped down and with it Zaid Hussain got down from car, closing the button of his fossil grey blazer, he went to other side and opened the door

Soft delicate hand was placed in his hand as Jannat got down from car, wrapping his arms around Jannat, Zaid took her in before weather get worse and she gets wet

But the weather already got worst

With Palwasha's tears, clouds also poured themselves

"Palwasha!" Mohib put his hand on her number body, but she wasn't in the state of hearing or feeling anything

All these days she thought she has oved on but seeing Zaid again made her realized that she is still standing there where he left her

She is still stuck on that place where no one can rescue her

"Palwasha?" Mohib worriedly called her as he saw her head spinning soon she was about to hit the floor but he hold her

"Palwasha!" Tapping the cheek of unconscious Palwasha, Mohib called her. But it was no use, picking her in his arms, he took her to her room

<><><>

"Bas, beta.. Kya hua? Kyu ro rahi ho itna?" Amna asked her daughter who was crying since she has come here, both mother and daughter were in Amna's room

(What happened?.. why are you crying?)

By now, Jannat's crying was making her more worried, many worst thoughts came in her mind which she put aside and trying to calm Jannat

Jannat herself didn't know why she is crying when she has made her mind that she won't become weak in front of her mother

"I missed you!..." Jannat softly said as she sank in her mother's arms,

She couldn't say the real reason. Amna didn't need to know her meeting with Mehtab so she can be hurt all over again

The meeting which will definitely stay with Jannat all her life but she isn't going to let it effect her mother's health and happiness

"Pagal! Dara Diya maa ko." Amna softly smacked Jannat's head

(Silly! You have scared me.)

"I thought maybe Zaid said something to you."

"He didn't said anything to me," Jannat was quick to defend Zaid as she pulled away from her mother's arms then got embarrassed

"Woh tumhe khush toh rakhta haina?" Holding her daughter's hand, Amna asked

(Does he keeps you happy.)

"Main unke sath bohot khush hoon..."

(I'm very happy with him.)

"Woh Mera bohot khayal rakhte Hain,"

(He cares about me.)

"Aur tum? Tum uska khayal rakhti ho? Ussey to koi shikayat nahi haina tumse?" Zaid's happiness? They never talked about it. Once they did where Zaid said his happiness is related Jannat. But still, she never really cared about his happiness, does he have any complain with her?

(Do you take care of him? Does he have any complain with you?)

These all thoughts ran in her brain

≤≥≤≥≤≥

You know Palwasha's story wasn't supposed to be.. I mean Palwasha didn't really had much role in this story beside being Zaid's fiancee,

I did asked the person who requested it that does she wants Palwasha's story too? Like Palwasha and Zamin's story? And she refused, she said Palwasha and Zamin are just friends and all, she doesn't want Palwasha's story, she only wants Zaid and Jannat's story

But it's your guys response made me write her story too

So...I didn't had much time to think about her story. I just wrote whatever comes in my mind 😬
