And do not approach the wealth of the orphan except in the best possible way, He till he reaches adulthood; and fulfil the promise; indeed the promise will be asked about [17:34]

I really enjoyed my time with zeba even though I was busy with meetings. I was impressed with how well zeba behaved at party she reacted opposite to what she said about not liking crowds. I think its her business attitude which she maintained well. When I said I have to go to dubai for project she wasn't upset. I was amazed how can she be so calm. When I asked her the reason her reply was that she respects my dream and she will be happy for me

I was used to her company now. She was so true about her being workaholic she was literally take her work seriously. I must say she is well organised not only she maintained her work but house so well. I really admire her attitude.

When I work late she waits for me and servers me dinner. I always say her not wait for me but she says that she is doing it for herself . I learned that she can be night owl at sometimes and other times she sleeps like no tomorrow.

I was early to home today to spend time with zeba but got busy in replying email. After 2 hours I finished my work and went to kitchen for having dinner. I didn't saw smarty so I served myself dinner which was their on table. Maid came to ask me for permission to leave I asked her why she is here till now. She replied that zeba asked her to cook dinner as she was not feeling well. I dismissed her. I felt uneasy but was hungry so I ate first then served her dinner in tray and took to her room.

Her room was dark and cold I walked carefully and placed the tray on side table. As I was standing near bed the light under bed got on. I can now see her sleeping form curled up but I frowned on noticing sweat on her forehead when I placed my hand I can feel it burning. I got hold her shaking hand from my other hand. She is having fever so I closed air conditioner and sat beside her on bed. She opened her eyes looked at me and got hold of my hand

"Did you had your dinner " she asked even in fever she was worried about me

"I did now get up I got you dinner" I said but she nodded her head negatively

"Come on zeba have food then you can take medicine" I said and she pouted I was suprised at her behaviour she was acting childish

"I want to sleep now Please. I will eat food in breakfast" she said I was not agreeing but she kept saying same thing then started coughing from continuous blabbering so I just gave up and slept.

I can still feel her warm hands that was trying to remove from my hold. I just teased her by tightening my hold. I can feel her breathing near my face like she was observing me. I smiled internally and opened my eyes to see her suprised expression. I jerked her hand and sat up looking at her with my big eyes she looked scared like I will scold her

"What where you doing so close to me.  I thought you where having fever I didn't knew you will try something like this" I said seriously just to tease her

"I was trying nothing but to get my hand out of your hold" she said

"Oh really if that's reason then you could have just shaked me" I said in not convincing tone

"If I wanted to try something on you I would have done it way before" she said with anger

"Who knows maybe you where doing this all time but i may have not noticed" I said with shrugging shoulder. She looked horrified

"Oh please I don't want to get nightmares after looking at your face" she said

"You mean you will dream about me" I said with smile
