SOMEONE I KNOW

Sana's POV

Sana:

Present:15

After Ahmed's car took a turn,I turned to look at Sameer.He was smiling a wicked one and that made me fake an irritation.

"Whats wrong with you Sameer?!" I asked in annoyance.

"Nothing..Everything is perfect dear.."He said pinching me on my cheeks.

I pushed him away and turned to go inside.

"Sameer,I heard that.And how lucky of you that am not going to strangle you." I smiled.

"Oh my god..Sana.If you are really going to be a mature woman after this,then who am I going to irritate for the rest of my life?!!" He said holding his chest as if in pain.

"You are making it impossible!" I tried to strangle him and he got hold of my hand and twisted it.I yelled whatever came to my mind and aunty came running outside.

"Oh my god!You two are really making it hard to treat you like grown ups!To your room!Both of you!Now!!" Aunty said and we both went our separate ways with a grunt.

The water washed away the fatigue but the warm feeling which I felt after so many years still remained.

After taking a long shower and changing into comfortable pyjamas,I pulled up the covers and turned off the light.But sleep eluded me.I checked my phone and to my surprise there was a message from an unknown number.

'Sana..I hope you had a wonderful time and I didn't make you regret accepting my invite.I really had the best evening of my life so far and thank you so much.And..Try that shrimp thing once again..But please don't shred that poor thing into pieces..hehehe..:)Good night.'

A unexplainable feeling filled my senses.A wide smile which played on my lips said that its not a bad feeling for sure.

'Thank you for the evening.I enjoyed it a lot without doubt.And about the shrimp,please take the trouble to teach me once more;)Good night Ahmed.' I typed and pressed send.

Placing the phone next to my pillow,I went into a deep slumber.

The warm glow and the shadows dancing on the room ceiling conveyed that am going to be late to work today.9 am flashing on my phone confirmed my doubts.

I jumped out of bed and ran to take a quick shower.After 20 minutes,I was decently dressed in a pink tee and a full skirt which flowed beautifully.I felt refreshed and happy for no reason.With a smile playing on my lips,I went down for breakfast.

"Hey buddy!You are late,sleepy head!" Sameer said with a smirk.He was already dressed in a tuxedo and was having breakfast.

"But what happened to you?!Why are you dressed like this for work today?!Don't tell me I have to take the bus!please.." I said taking a seat beside him.

"Am sorry dear.But unfortunately,I have to tell you that." He laughed.

"Arghhh...Am already late." I said smearing peanut butter on my toast.

"Can I ask someone to drop you?" He winked and I suppressed a giggle.But the colour of my cheeks gave me away.

"Aww..So should I take this blushing as a 'Yes' ?!" He asked finishing his breakfast.

I actually wanted to see Ahmed,but as I told him I needed time to decide.It will not be a good idea to be around him very often.I need my personal space to think clearly.

"No.Thanks for your concern Mr.Sameer.But please tell me the bus route." I asked and he gave me directions.

"I will drop you in the bus station.From there,take bus number 101.Yours will be the last stop,okay?" He said and I nodded.
