Hey everyone! Lets start w/ the storyyyy<3
Inaya's P.O.V
Beep-beep. Urgh, that's my alarm. I don't feel like getting up today! Lemme check what's the time. Uh, it's 6:30 so I gotta get fresh, prepare the breakfast for us and wake these lazy creatures up. I quickly get down from the bed, thank God I slept on the corner and not in the middle. I brush my teeth and go to the room where I had bathe last night. I take a shower there and change into an oversized brown sweatshirt and white jeans. I decided to pair it with my Adidas white sneakers. I curled my hair and tied it into a pony-tail and then checked the time. It was just 7, so we had one and a half hour till college starts. I woke Aleezeh and Haniyah and they too went to get ready. I then knocked on Saud's door and opened it after 5 seconds. I went inside, but he wasn't there. I called him but he didn't pick my call. Did he leave? No, why would he leave without us, he must be around. I then went in the kitchen and started to make White Sauce Pasta. I brought a stool and stood on it, so that I can take the pasta from the upper shelf. I stood on my toes and finally got the pasta. I don't know how I slipped from the stool and I closed my eyes in fear. I then felt that someone's holding me, so I opened my eyes and saw Saud. I came out of his hold once I stood properly on the ground. He said "Inaya, what were you doing? You were just about to fall. You should be more careful, okay?" I nodded and said "Um, nothing much, was just making pasta for y'all. Don't tell me you already had your breakfast!" I replied. He then said "No no, I didn't. Wait, I can help you if you want." I said "Really? It would be great." He boiled the Pasta and I made the sauce. I was engulfed in a hug by Aleezeh from the back. I could easily recognize her because of the way she hugs. She then dipped her finger in the pasta sauce and said "Wow! Is this really made by you Inu? You know what? I missed your food soooo much! You're the best cook." I then looked at her and said "I know but will you please stop licking your fingers? You can go and wash them, if you put some effort." Saud chuckled and asked "Well, where is my sister? Did you guys mixed sleeping pills in her food or something? If you did, thankyou so much! She talks way too much! I love you both so mu-" He stopped when he realised his last sentence. We laughed and then I stopped laughing suddenly. Liz asked me what's wrong and I just pointed to the door of kitchen and she too stopped laughing. Saud then said "And you know what, once she was sleep talking and when I told her about it in the morning, she was embarassed. Then I once posted her sleeping pic on my story and she isn't aware of it till date. Why are you guys not laughing?" The whole time we were indicating him to stop, but he didn't. "Oh really, could you show me that pic?" Asked Haniyah. She was standing at the kitchen door hence we stopped laughing. He said "Ya sure, but why do you sound like Haniyah?" She replied "Maybe because it's Haniyah herself!" The look on his face was worth a million laughs! Ya Allah! She literally ran behind him till he fell in front of me and Aleezeh. Niya said "Bhai, I am gonna complain about this to, um, yes, Zahra! I have her number!" He quickly got up and said "Hanu, my baby sis, you won't do that, right? I, I'll give you 2000 rupees. Okay?" She immediately agreed and I mixed the Pasta in the White Sauce and cooked it for more 5 minutes and done!
We're now heading to college in Saud's car. Ishaan is doing his favorite job, irritating me. I then said "Ishaan, if you won't stop troubling me, I'll tell everyone about your ex-girlfriend, Jasmine!" I then turned towards everyone else and said "Guys, listen! Did you know Jasmine is Ishaan's_" "Favorite, favorite flower! What's your favorite flower guys?" I was interrupted by Ishaan as he kept his hand on my mouth and spoke something else, huh! Haniyah said Rose, Aryan bhai said Tulips, Liz said Orchids and I said "I like Lilies!" At the same time, Saud said the same thing and everyone looked at us as if we're some rare species. I said "What? Why are y'all looking at us like this?" Haniyah said "Uh nothing nothing, leave it. By the way, do you all know that last night, there was some guy in Inaya's room when she was changing!" As she said it, Saud started coughing and looked at me. I said "Come on Haniyah, why are you lying!?" and Haniyah said "Okay, okay. That was just a joke, don't worry." Saud was given water by Haniyah and he passed her a glare but she just laughed at it. We dropped Haniyah at her college and reached ours. Aryan bhai came to me and said "Inu, look, after yesterday's incident, we've decided that we'll be with you until class doesn't starts and then will first drop you and then go to our classes. I don't want to hear any excuses, okay?" "Bhai I know that you care for me and you don't want me to be in any kind of danger but_" I was cut by Ishaan "Inaya, why don't you listen to him? Please try to understand, we care about you! And by the way, no one gave you any options to choose. We just informed you about our decision, right Aryan?" Arghh! "Yes yes, absolutely! You get that?" I nodded and we all went in the canteen. We sat where we were sitting yesterday and then within 5 minutes, we hear some noises, like people gasping, shouting and also, cheering. We all got up and went to the place where everyone was gathered. As soon as the crowd saw us, they started hooting and I saw Unnati standing there. She looked a bit worried and was calling me so I went to her and she said "Uhm Inaya, this is not a good news. Take this, have a look at it." I looked at her in confusion and then she gave me something that looked like a Letter. I called bhai and everyone else and Aleezeh read the letter :
"Dear Inu, this is what your loved ones call you, right? I know that right now, your over protective friends and brothers are willing to break my face but why don't you understand that I love you! I fell in love with you when I saw you for the first time, and that's not yesterday. I saw you for the first time when you had come in our college 2 years back with Aryan, for the 'Party Night'. You were dancing with him and you looked so beautiful in that pink gown. I even clicked your photo that day.
I fell for you that day itself. After the party night, you came to our college many times with either Aryan or Asad, Ishaan, Saud and Aleezeh. Then somehow I got to know your name and I searched for your Instagram account. Yesterday when I saw you, I first thought that you're here to drop Aleezeh or something but when I got to know that you took admission in this college, I decided that I'll confess my love to you. I will give you one chance to accept my proposal and if you don't, then I'll do something that nobody can imagine! And you may ask anyone in the college, even your fellows that if I want something, I'll go to any limits to get that.
With Love, Sid<3 "
The moment she finished reading, I could realize that I've been crying. I snatched the letter from her hand and was just about to tear it when someone took it from my hand. I looked at the person and it was Ishaan. When he noticed my tears, he immediately hugged me and I hugged him back and cried. I came out of the hug and seconds later, I started feeling dizzy. Before I could say anything, I fell down, unconscious and then, everything went Black.
Ishaan's P.O.V
Oh God! Why the hell is all this happening to Inaya? Indeed she is the most beautiful girl in this world, she doesn't deserve this! I took the letter from her hand before she could tear it, and engulfed her in a hug. She hugged me back and believe me, this was the best feeling ever. I didn't want to let her go outta this hug because I felt like she'd go, for forever. I let her go out of this hug because I didn't want to look like a creep and also, this isn't the right time. Just a few seconds later, she fell unconscious on the ground and before I could hold her, Saud held her. I sometimes feel jealous whenever there's any guy around her, I just don't like it and also, I don't know why! He then carried her in his arms to the medical room and we all followed him. I was worried for Inaya and at the same time, I was angry at Sid. I want to break his face so bad, that even his parents won't be able to recognize him! I was waiting outside with Saud and Aryan and Aleezeh was inside with her. Someone kept their hand on my shoulder and I turned around only to find Asad standing. He was looking both worried and angry. He asked us "Where-where is Inaya? What happened exactly?" Aryan replied "Asad, first you need to calm down, alright? She is inside the medical room and Liz is with her. Who informed you?" He said "I just heard the noise near the canteen so I went to see what's happening when I was told by Unnati that Sid did something again, he wrote some letter and then Inaya went unconscious. Show me the letter." I gave him the letter and I could see his anger for Sid and worry for Inaya. Of course he would be feeling this, after-all he's her brother. He read the letter and said "Ya Allah! Why is this happening to my baby sister?! Please protect her from all this, protect her from the Evil! Uhm, Aryan, when was this party night when Inu came with you?" "Asad I guess it was in November, 2 years ago. Even I didn't remember about it. He's such a creep. He is a big danger to her and we definitely cannot leave her alone anytime. We've decided that in college, whenever its free time, we will be with her and we will drop her till her class and then go to ours. But I don't think its sufficient." I then said "Yes Aryan, you're correct. We cannot take the risk of anything." Saud then said "Uhm, Asad, I have an idea. If you don't mind, y'all can stay at my house, where I live alone sometimes. Yesterday Haniyah, Inaya and Aleezeh were there with me and they've been there many times, so we all can easily stay there." Well, that is a good idea. Asad said "That's great, but are you okay with it? And what about aunty and uncle?" "I have no problem with it Asad, after-all, we are friends. Don't worry about them, they won't say anything. So, we should go today itself. You all are coming, right?" Asked Saud and we all nodded.
Inaya's P.O.V
Agh, my head is paining. I open my eyes and saw Aleezeh beside me. As she saw me, she asked "Inu! Are you okay now? How, how are you feeling?" I just said "Yes I am alright. Where is everyone?" She said that they are waiting outside so I told her to call them here. They all came and also, Asad bhai. Nobody talked about that letter thing and they just said that for a few days, we all will stay at Saud's house. Everyone talked to mummy and she allowed as everyone is gonna be there. We all missed our 1st lecture because of this and then we went to our classes and they all dropped me to mine and then went to theirs. I saw that there's only one seat left, and so I went and sat there. Everyone asked me that how am I feeling now and I replied them with better and thankyou for asking. I am sitting next to a girl, her name is Krishita and by the way she was behaving, I could say that she definitely doesn't likes me. I think I saw her near the crowd today morning. She looks at me, annoyed, and said "Why are you sitting next to me? And just shift to the side." I replied her "Because there aren't any more seats vacant, that's why I am sitting next to you and I am already sitting at the edge, where shall I shift?" She just rolled her eyes and then after a few minutes, she dropped her pen below me, so I bent down to pick it up, when she pushed me. I fell on the floor, but thanks to my reflexes that I didn't get hurt. I couldn't get up because I was feeling weak, due to the medicines. I tried but I couldn't. That's when I felt someone holding my shoulders and picking me up. I looked over my shoulder and saw it was some guy. I thanked him as he made me sit again and said "You're welcome. You must be Inaya Khan, right?" I sighed and replied "Yup, now I guess everyone might be knowing about me. What's your name?" He then said "I guess. Its Peter but not Parker." That made me laugh and then he forwarded his hand towards me and asked "Friends?" I accepted and said "Sure, Spiderman." He then said "I heard about the Sid thing and it is really complicated. Do you like him?" I made a face and said "NO! He's the most annoying person I've ever met! Seriously! I don't know what he saw in me and..... anyways, why talk about him" he then smiled and said "Well, now let's concentrate on the lecture, else" He then looked at Krishita and said "Hey Krishita, can you sit in my seat? My partner wants to sit with you!" She happily went and sat with Peter's partner. He sat next to me and then the teacher said "Okay everyone, now I'll take your leave and yes, from today, your partners are permanent so throughout the year, you'll sit with the one next to you. No arguments. Thankyou." We all thanked her and everyone began to leave the class, but I had to wait till Aleezeh or someone amongst them comes. Peter asked me that why am I waiting so I told him the reason.
