I wasn't going to call him. If he made me buy him food at his restaurant in hopes that it would guarantee me calling him then he was dumb. And childish. Plus I don't have time for distractions; I have school and a kid.I was scrolling through my Instagram when a direct message popped up. My heart gave a violent thud; direct message from 'The_AhmadGoni' 'No way in hell' i muttered to myself and decided that was enough instagram for a day. I called Habib and we went to sleep after he said his 'goodnight' to the baby.
My classes had started full swing and it was a hassle. I have to sneak out of Mrs Amina's apartment because of Rya. She is a very fussy baby dear God!
Thank God it's a Friday and I had only one class, by noon I'm out of here.The torturously boring class ended thirty minutes after it was supposed to! I was super irritated. I got home as fast as I could and the smile Rya gave me melted away the entire days frustration. I took her from Mrs Amina and went home. I prayed zuhr and showered all while being in the baby's sight. She was the perfect baby girl as long as she wasn't hungry, sleepy or out of my sight. After I fed her and gave her some frozen strawberry cubes that she loves so much, she yawned three times in a row. I laughed quietly unbuckling her from her high chair.
I put her down for a nap and also fell asleep for an hour. I woke up just in time for asr. It was the end of the month and shopping needed to be done so I dressed the baby and my self and headed out. You know a grocery shopping is due when the indomie noodles carton is almost empty.
Why do the milk tins have to be so high up? Is there something personal against short people? I looked around for a store attendant but my eyes landed on a black Gucci model look alike with a charming smile walking towards me. I rolled my eyes hard and turned away. He closed the space between us quickly and effortlessly brought down the tin of milk and dropped it in my trolley.
"Who looks this stunning buying groceries?" He says making me roll my eyes when all I wanted to do was close my eyes and inhale my fill of his heavenly cologne. 'What the hell was that Layla' I scolded myself mentally.
The baby squeaked excitedly, stretching her arms like she's seen him before. I scowled at her pushing the trolley away from him. To my utter surprise and betrayal, she began to cry. Scream at the top of her lungs. Milking the opportunity, Zayn appeared by my side and picked her up. She quieted down instantly. My jaw dropped. He laughed quietly.
"What do you want? Are you stalking me?" I ask trying my best to sound as uninterested as possible.
"You never called me"
" What make you think I would?"
"I don't know, I thought I charmed you" he said seriously. I almost laughed. Almost.
"Sorry to burst you self absorbed bubble"
"No harm done. There's plenty more charm where that came from" I shook my head.
"Let me" he says pushing my trolley.
"What next are you getting?" He asks.
"Indomie" I say, giving up the fight.
****
I strapped Rya into her car seat and got in, all while he stood by my door watching me intently from a safe distance. His gaze is so intense it making goosebumps litter my arms.
Maybe I should just run him over. The thought made me chuckle to myself. He glared at me playfully.
"What is that hedonistic smile?" His voice came muffled by my closed window.I just smiled more. Oh He has no idea. I pushed the start button of the car and nothing happened . The smiled dropped from my face so fast. I pushed it multiple more times in a row but the car remained perfectly silent. Oh God please no.
