I just want to sleep. A coma would be nice. Or amnesia. Anything, just to get rid of this, these thoughts, whispers in my mind. Did he rape my head, too?

Minhaaj was a 22-year-old boy studying b.com li...
Mah Laaj was sitting on her bed, staring at the screen of her phone. The room was in twilight and a sniffing sound.
She was scrolling down the pictures of Minhaaj because this was the only thing left beside her by Minhaaj.
He was gone and she didn't know when he would be back. Days have been passing by and still no news of Minhaaj.
The lil hope of sand was splurted right through her hands today when she came to know that he dropped out of the university.
It looks like he just vanishes in the air without letting anyone know.
I should've held you back when you came to me that morning with the assignment. Only if I knew you would disappear like this...
A lone tear cross the threshold of her eyes. She crossed her arms around her legs and ducked her face in that tiny lil space.
Why... did you... said... that?
A muffled voice came out.
Past The day after Arzu's death.
It was around 6 o clock when Mah Laaj phone started buzzing but she was busy ironing her cloth early because she wanted to look good today.
Minhaaj told her that they would meet at university but suddenly a pebble knocked on her window.
Mah Laaj got startled because no one in this area dares to come near their house as they were scared of Mah Laaj's dad.
She wanted to know who that brave lil kid exists but was shocked and almost tumbled down when she saw Minhaaj standing down there with a smile.
"A Smile" on Minhaaj face she couldn't believe. Because he always had a scowl on his face.

On the other hand, he was looking breathtaking too in his plain white shirt and black pants. He was leaning against his car.
Am I seeing the right thing? You are actually smiling. She squinted her eyes just to confirm it.
Mah Laaj pick up the call. Minhaaj mouthed it.
Mah Laaj ambled inside and took the phone in her hands. She picked up the call and just screamed in it.
Ahh! OMG did I just see you smiling out there? Did you hit your head somewhere Minhaaj or you woke up from the wrong side of the bed? I can't believe this. She gleefully uttered.
Why is it wrong to smile? He let out a dry chuckle.
Yes! We are talking about you Minhaaj. The stone face king Mr. Minhaaj Sikander was smiling at me and that was too early in the morning in front of my house. She giggled and fell on her bed.
