The car ride was silent, it was getting awkward  I didn't know what to say or not. I glanced at him and there he was sitting, his face was void of emotion almost blank. His facial expression encouraged me more to keep my mouth shut. Today morning he was a complete jerk to me and then later he invited me to have dinner with him to apologise now he was sitting there silently as if he was alone in the car God I didn't know what to feel about him. Stupid if he didn't wanted to talk then why did he invite me for dinner. I huffed getting frustrated with  this silence.

" where are we going" I decided to break the silence this car ride was getting painfully long

"relax we  are about to reach" he replied in his husky voice sending shivers down my spine, I didn't know why I was so anxious and jittery around him

Sure enough in five minutes he was parking his car. I looked out to see where we were and what I saw left me dumbstruck. Seeing his status I was sure he would bring me to some of those posh five star restaurants to eat but instead we were there in front of the small diner, it was cozy diner surrounded by a beautiful garden it was simply beautiful. This man was full of surprises and I was getting intrigued.

"shall we...!" I was startled by his voice I didn't notice when he came out of the car and now he was standing In front of me extending his hand for me to take. Taking his hand I hopped out of the car my hand was starting to get sweaty in between his fingers.

Snap out of it Wafa, you cannot go to that path again

"are you alright....!" he looked  at me worried

"of course I.....i'am fine..."  I hastily replied looking down I wanted to escape his intense eyes it was like he was trying to read me through my eyes

"are you sure because you don't....." he was cut off by the loud shreak  and soon he was engulfed in a bone crushing hug by a woman we both were startled by this

Ya Allah what just happened

I could almost listen the loud beating of my heart

I looked  up at him and to my surprise he wasn't scowling or there wasn't an ounce of irritation on his face in fact he was widely smiling and was hugging her with equal passion. I was shocked to see him smiling

They were both separated by a man who I then noticed was standing there.

" Asiya  let the boy breath..." chuckling he then embraced Hadi

"how are you my son" he asked patting his back

"I am fine and maa, paa I missed you both so much..."  I am sure my jaw was touching the floor

Maa?? Paa??

But haadi's father?

Ughh

"ya ya I know how much you missed us nalayak  that's why you didn't contact us for months...." she scolds him and then twisting his ear  again she said " it's been almost twenty days since you came back India and you didn't even bother to come and meet us... "

" oww oww  Maa please its hurting okay am sorry for not coming early paa please save me... " he said looking at his paa still trying to free his ear from his maa's strong grip. I stifled a laugh it was so funny seeing Mr Ali cowering form this petite woman

" oh no no no young man don't look at me you are on your own  you know i can't win when it comes to your Maa" he said winking at him making her scowl at him

I laughed at them turning their attention to me making my smile vanished and I was suddenly embarrassed when I saw that  three pairs of eyes were now looking at me.... Whereas hadi's gaze was almost blank not giving away anything and the other two were curiously looking at me.
