Never Yours

Chapter 6

"can you talk with Ashar and tell me what kind of person he is , you know me enough to know if we would be compatible or not , I trust on your judgement " said Areeka and Tehreem slowly hummed

"Reem please" said Areeka
"Fine" said Tehreem and Areeka smiled

Areeka sat next to Tehreem and Ashar next to Tehreem , Ashar started talking to Tehreem and tried buttering her up a bit which didn't get unnoticed by Tehreem . Tehreem saw Ashar steal glances at Areeka even while talking to her , she tried her best to not smile seeing this.

Tehreem asked her questions in a twisted way and she was happy with the answers she got . Ashar started talking with Areeka and Tehreem gave her occassional answers, she really didn't want to become the third wheel which she was but was helpless.

After a while they said their goodbyes and left. The Mehta's had a smile and hope on their faces while Areeka was nervous of what's going to happen. Tehreem was on her own world and chilling , All of them sat in the living room and Nusrat sat there very hopeful of a positive response

"Areeka , i know this is a big decision and I'm going to leave it completely upto you , whatever the answer is there's no hard feelings so you need not worry and don't let that thought influence your judgement , It's a big important" said Nusrat

"Reeka child don't worry about anything, we'll absolutely understand any decision you make , think and make this decision because this is going to impact your whole life and i don't want you having any regrets in life so take your time and consider everything before taking your decision" said Taroon

"What are you all Talking about" asked Areeka

"They're plotting to get you out of this house in a bridal attire , in other words they're telling that Samina aunty like my suspicion asked for you hand for her son" said Tehreem unapologetically , Nusrat gave her a deadly stare

"She's not wrong" said Taroon defending Tehreem

"Samina asked Me for your hand for marriage , I told her that the decision is completely upto you and I'd have to deny if you deny , there's no issues or pressure on you , This is a really big life Changing decision so take it wisely" said Nusrat

"Areeka Are you ready for Marriage? What do you think about Ashar?" Asked Taroon

"Take your time" said Nusrat

Tehreem was sitting on the bed and was listening to the music , Areeka was walking around the room . Tehreem took off the headphones and kept it on the bed. She sighed and decided to ask Areeka

"Reeka what's going on , Take a seat on the bed and chill for a second , you walking here and there ain't helping one bit on anything, take a seat and tell me your problem , I'm sure that I'll have a solution" said Tehreem and Areeka sat next to Tehreem

"Tell me your opinion on Ashar , i told you to interview him in your twisted way" asked Areeka
"So you've decided to get married?" Asked Tehreem with surprise
"I don't know" said Areeka in an annoyed way

"Reeka , I'd give him a green flag , i spoke to him and got my answers in some twisted way but works , the guy is type who'd love endlessly and treat you like a queen , he likes you a lot that i could see in his eyes when he stole glances at you" said Tehreem

"Hmm" hummed Areeka

Areeka took account on Tehreem's words and laid on her bed. She spend the night in deep thoughts and She said yes to her parents. She went on a few dinner dates with Ashar , she didn't want to miss him , she liked the small gestures he did for her and that's all she could've asked for.

Areeka finally returned to her classes after her Crazy week , she couldn't believe what all took place in a span of a week. She walked through the corridors for her eyes to meet with a familiar pair of eyes. Their eyes locked , She Felt frozen.

"Haider" whispered Areeka
