"Aunt I have to leave. I just received a message from Ammar ." I lied
"What message ?"
"Aunt don't worry. It's between me and him. I have to go."l
"But it's late it's few minutes past 11."
"Aunty. It's not the first time I'm leaving your house so late. Don't worry. Take care." I kissed her chin.
"Call me when you get home." She hugged.
"I'm not a baby. No need. I broke the hug. "
"Okay . Bye." She waved.
I rushed out immediately. Honestly it was a message I got from Amor that I have to come to Billa's empire right now. I dialed his number as I drive.
Phone conversation.
Me : Hi, which of the billa am I going to?
Him : The one at Barnawa.
Me : Am I going to taste whiskey ?
Him : Come first. Drunk head!
Me :Okay . Bye.I drove in a high speed. I don't like keeping my Amor waiting.
I entered billa's. Parked at the car lot then came out.
"Why billa's? When 360 is there? Maybe they sell the best drinks here." I smiled as I made my way to the entrance."You are welcome to billa's empire." A waiter bowed down his head.
"Thank you." I smiled.
"Are you miss waliya?"
"Yes."
"Can I have your bag?"
"Sure. Let me remove my phone." I handed the bag over the bag .
"Go straight you will see a door. Open and walk towards the left." He left.
"What is this all about?" I asked myself .
I did as instructed.
"Amor is unbelievable. Why do we have candles and dishes with every where decorated when we are suppose to have different varieties of alcohol." I frowned."Turn around baby girl." A voice said from behind.
I turned.
"Happy birthday sweetheart ." He smiled as shinny stuffs showered on me from above .
"OMG! I'm speechless." I covered my mouth.
"I had never met a wonderful girl like you ." He hugged me.
"I love you." I hugged him tightly.
"I love you too." We broke the hug.
"Cmon . Let's sit." He held my hands as we walked to the table.
"I can't wait to dig my hands into this food."
"Who is stopping you?"
I began eating. I was so hungry . We began with gist. I always have gist for him especially about kabir. I told him everything from the scratch.
I stopped. "I didn't remember my birthday. How stupid am I?" I covered all my face with both palms.
"You are a fool. That why." He laughed.
"Fuck you." I frowned.
That sweet ringing tone of mine began singing again..... I picked on Amor's insistence.
Phone conversation.
Dad : Hello precious.
Me : Why calling so late?( Pretending to be sleepy)
Dad : I called to inform you that the suitor is coming tomorrow.
Me : What! So soon.
Dad : Please my daughter don't let me down.
Me : No problem.
Dad : Thank you precious.
Me : Bye dad. I want to sleep.
Dad :Yes go to sleep my love.
I ended the call.
I looked at Amor and laughed.
