Zaim Hussain was laying awake in his bed, sleep was nowhere near him but this time the reason was different

The reason was Hanaya Latif, there was something in her eyes that made him restless........ Guilty?

Like he is doing something wrong to her. but, what?

The thought of him getting engaged to the love of his life wasn't enough to divert him mind from her

"Result kab Tak ayenge?" At dinner Shahid Hussain asked Fasih,

(When will your result release?)

"Next month tak," Fasih who got free from exams today said

"Kal se office aao phir," Fasih's hand stopped as he looked at his father

(Then join office from tomorrow,)

"Papa woh.... Maine aur mere friends ne Manali trip ka plan kiya tha ki..." With little hesitation he said

(Papa..... Me and my friends planned a trip to Manali,)

"Bas trip hi plan karte raho, zimmedari toh nibhani nahi, yeh trip aur plans ab band karo, Kal office arahe ho tum bas,"

(All you do is planning trips with your friends, will you ever take your responsibility? Tommorow you are coming to office.)

"Jaane dijiye, abhi to exams se free hua hai, thori din toh issey life enjoy karne de'n," Nimra interfere in between, Fasih also nod his head in agreement, which lucky for him was unnoticed by Shahid Hussain

(He just got free from his exams, let him enjoy his life,)

"Life enjoy karne ka nateeja hain inke itne achhe grade," he taunt at Fasih's grades,

(His grades are the result of his life enjoyment,)

"Papa! Kuch hi din ka trip Hai Jane de'n issey, tab Tak main aur aap Hain na office sambhalne ke liye," Zaim said, not liking his brother's down face when he got scold by their father

(Papa! It's only matter of fee days, let him go until we are here for office,)

"Tum dono ke laad pyaar ki wajah se hi aaj yeh itna careless Hai," Fasih calmly placed the spoon on plate and left the dining table

(He is careless only because of you two.)

"Har waqt kyu Dante Hain ussey, dekhiye Khana beech mein se chorr ke Chala gaya," Nimra turned to her husband

(Why do you always have to scold him? He didn't even finish his dinner,)

"Haan Meri galti Hai ki ussey uski life mein settle karna chahta hoon,"

(It's my fault that I want him to be settle in his life,)

"Papa main baat karunga Fasih se, yeh uski uske dost ke sath last trip hogi iske baad woh regularly office ayega,"

(I'll talk to Fasih, it'll be his last trip with his friends, and after that he'll regularly come to office,)

"Yeh wali pic achhi aai Hai," Fasih said while showing Hayfa the pic where Hayfa and Hanaya were getting down from stairs, Hayfa's face was blurred because she was looking somewhere else, only Hanaya's face was clear,

(This pic is beautiful,)

"Waise Hanaya ke lenge ka colour itna suit nahi Kar raha Tha uspe aur usne apna specs bhi nahi utara Tha jabki maine ussey kaha Tha ki aaj ke liye contact lens pehenlo aur Maine toh ussey yeh bhi bataya Tha blue tumhara favorite colour nahi Hai. lekin Hanaya, ussey kaha parwah rehti Hai kisi aur ki, ussey toh sirf khud se Matlab hota Hai ki kisme woh comfortable Hai," glancing at the pic she said, Fasih again turned his phone to him, only half paying attention to her,
