Save Me.

Ex best friend's

"Bilal Ashraf is the most handsome guy I have ever set my eyes on"

"Are you on drugs or have you not taken your medicines yet? How can you compare him with the 90's leonardo? Haven't you seen him in Romeo and Juliet? Atleast you must have seen in Titanic!"

"What!? That cheeli hoi murghi?(satire used for guys who don't have beard) have you seen him now? He might be an A class actor but please Bilal Ashraf is the epitome of sexiness"

"Can you both please tone it down. I don't know what's worse! hearing my sister praising a guy over his Physical attributes or my guy best friend fighting over actors who he has never met in live that who is hotter"

Salar shouted from across the table at Inaya and Zaroon. These two have been bickering over which actor is hotter for past 10 minutes and I can't be anymore thankful to Salar at the moment for relieving all of us from the torture.

I raise my head from the table to smile at Salar which he completely ignores as he has done for past 3.5 weeks since the university has opened up once again.

He has been adamant at finding out about my secret ever since the scene with Professor Mehdi. The first week went with his constant nagging. Trying to corner me in the corridors, messaging me in the middle of night.

The second week went on with the guilt trap where he won't miss a single opportunity of telling me how I don't consider them my friend as I don't share my problems and secret with others.

The third week which has been continued in the fourth i.e. this week is he has been ignoring my every approach towards him which is driving me crazy.

Putting my head down again on the table I wait for the free period to end so that after attending my last class I can go home and sleep to my heart content.

"Zareen your phone is ringing."

Inaya calls out to me and I look at my phone where an unknown number is calling me. Before I could pick it up Salar reached over, picked up my call and answered it leaving my mouth hanging open.

"Asalamualikum (greetings in Islam) who is it?"

We all heard a faint answer from the other side but I am sure it was a guy talking. Salar's face contoured in disgust.

"Well she doesn't want to associate or keep any contact with you ass holes anymore so stop contacting her!"

My ears picked up and my heart started beating fast I look at Inaya if she also understood who is the person on the other side of the call and her nod told me that I am right. I got up from my seat bending over the table reaching for my phone in Salar's hand. He captured my wrist in the mid air and pushed back a little.

"Salar give me my phone now!" I whisper angrily. Feeling frustrated at him for interfering between my matter. He continues ignoring me and kept on talking on the phone.

"Why don't you guys show up at our university to talk to her if you all are so desperate for her apology"

What the hell is he doing. I look around the cafeteria to see we are being watched. I pulled my hand from his grasp in which I was successful as he was momentarily distracted. Moving to the other side I hear him say.

"Oh really you are here already? I'll meet you guys in a minute. Don't move."

I stood like a statue in front of Salar at hearing my ex best friend are here, somewhere near and that made me to start getting anxiety. He put my phone down on table. Made me sit on his chair, asked Inaya to look after me and after a last glance towards me went out of the cafeteria leaving me numb.

"Zareen you are ok. Everything will be fine. Hey please look at me please."

I look down at Inaya who is sitting at the floor near my legs asking me to look at her for I don't know how long. A tear roll down my cheek following with other as well. I rug my cheeks with force and got up running out of the cafeteria towards the parking with my stuff leaving Inaya behind me who is shouting at me to stop that we don't know where actually they have gone.

Running towards the parking lot trying to push myself forward through the crowd. I look at an angry Salar throwing punches on my ex bestfriend face one after another which made me shout out at him in frustration.

"Stop it you bull! you are killing him."

no response and the punches continued while I look around frustated finding my other ex bestfriends being held back by Salars friends.

Moving forward I hold onto Salar's arm which was in the air now almost delivering another blow. I spoke to him with a defeated sigh.

"Salar please stop. Let him go."

This time he did stoped throwing him on the floor with enough force to knock him down while he dragged me towards his car fuming with anger. I look back only to see my ex bestfriend looking at me with multiple emotions in his eyes but fear and regret being the most prominant one.

Uhhhhh finally another chapter!
There has been a lot of work load since past couple of days because of which I wasn't able to post a new chapter anytime soon. Hope this will makeup for the late update.

Love you all,
