He grabbed her by hands and pulled her to the side in swift motion.
"What the h-", he placed his fingers on her lips silencing her squeal. She stared at him in shock, her eyes a whirlwind of emotions.
"Before you say something else, I need to know...

"She was checking out a dress for mom because it fit her taste, she called me to double check if Mom would like it, look such an angel she is, she is buying stuff for Mom because she wants to" said Sarah and Haider felt Guilty
"Shit!" whispered Haider
"We called and I cut the call so I could go to mom's room to double check the size for her dress, when I called back, she declined and I called again, she took it and I think by mistakenly, she was crying, and she cut the call as soon as she realised" said Sarah
"What did you do now? Go and sorry, make it right" said Sarah in a threatening way, Haider was feeling guilty for what he had done.
He cut the call and decided to apologize for overreacting, he had taken his frustrations on her. He walked towards the washroom. He saw a lady coming out.
"Excuse me, can you please check if anybody else than a crying girl in inside" asked Haider and the lady gave him a questioning look.
"I had a fight with my wife, and she is not coming outside, I need to say sorry" said Haider with a desperate look and the lady nodded. The lady went inside and then came out
"There's nobody else inside, come out fast, I'm standing here until you do so make it fast" said the lady and Haider nodded
"Thank you so much," said Haider
Haider went inside to see Tehreem washing her face, her eyes were red which made him feel uneasy. He never thought that she was the crying kind and especially over his words.
"Tehreem" called out Haider, Tehreem turned away from him and wiped her face. He could see her actions through the big mirror in her side
"I'm sorry for overreacting, please don't cry," said Haider
"Who told I'm crying and I'm not crazy to cry over you" said Tehreem in a confident voice and walked towards him
"Don't try to flatter yourself" said Tehreem standing close to his face, He could see her nose red but did not want to make her angry.
She stormed out of the washroom, Haider mouthed Thank you to the lady when he walked out. Tehreem walked into the shop, called Sarah, and confirmed the size, she brought the dress and walked out.
Haider was concerned by her awful silence and seriousness; He walked across many things that she would have walked in to buy but she did not. He came across a dress that she would love, He decided to buy it.
"Come" said Haider and both walked into the shop.
"Can you try this on" said Haider and Tehreem gave him a questioning look then nodded. She went to the changing room and changed into the dress he gave.
Tehreem got out wearing a black dress with laces, Haider was mesmerized by how beautiful she looked. He walked towards her, and his eyes fell on her cold eyes which was staring into his eyes. He knew that he was going to get a bad cold shoulder from her.
