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...

"Haider, I'm making pasta" said Tehreem and Haider was sitting on the kitchen Platform. Tehreem was cooking the pasta and Haider was munching the biscuit slowly. Haider got off the platform and stood next to Tehreem while she was still stirring the pasta.
Haider slowly takes the scarf from her neck and wears on his, He styles it in his way, and She looks at him and smiles him. She pulls down the scarf down, she did not want him to die from asphyxia, she resumes to stir the pasta and He styles the scarf in a comfortable way.
"The scarf looks good on you, but you can't keep it, it's my favourite scarf" said Tehreem and Haider chuckled.
"Don't worry, I'm not planning on doing it," said Haider.
"That's better for you, I wouldn't let you keep it" said Tehreem with smile and he slowly nods to her words.
He jumps down from the platform and walks towards Tehreem, who's face had some water vapours from the boiling water. Tehreem looks at him and he pulls her towards him, she looks at him confused. He takes an end of the scarf and starts to slowly pat the water beads off her face.
Both were standing close; it was already hot from the stove and the closeness were increasing it. He finishes patting her face and let us go of the scarf. She smiled at him, and she took the vessel out of the Stove and was going to place another vessel.
"No" screams Tehreem, Haider had leaned towards her side and the scarf was near the flaming fire.
"F*ck" screams Tehreem realising that she was late, the shawl had caught fire and it was like everything was frozen. Haider did not know what to do and the scarf was still around his neck, taking it off would not be possible without choking him.
Tehreem took the nearest spoon and tried to pat down the fire, and she was successful, she took a glass, filled it with water and poured it over the now burned shawl.
"What the hell" screamed Tehreem.
"Your hand could've burned while patting down the fire" said Haider holding her hand, his eyes met her angry eyes.
"F*ck off, Like I could let you get a second degree burn while I stand aside and see you get burned" said Tehreem rolling her eyes.
"What's that" asked Tehreem hearing the beep sounds and Haider closes his eyes after realising what is happening, he opens his eyes feeling tap on his hand.
"It's the smoke alarm and now we are going to get soaked in water" said Haider and water started pouring down while the beep blared.
"Where is the off button" asked Tehreem and Haider nodded.
Haider went to the side and disabled the alarm. He walked towards Tehreem who was now soaked in water and her dress was sticking to her body tightly. Haider looked at her and he slowly cupped her face which was filled with concern which made him feel things.
