You, Alone. ✅

Chapter 15

Ammarah's POV 

Pashmina- Amit Trevedi

After praying asr, we left the house with Rayyan trailing behind us. He had assured me that my parent would be found and I will be home.

I almost wanted to ask him if he feels the peaceful sheet that covers us while we talk. Right here, at the side of the road. I wanted to ask him if he sees the soft rays that circles us, the gentle aura that glows between us.

I wanted to tell him how I want to find my parent but not really my home. Because home was him, home only felt right with him.

But I didn't, I had nodded and thanked him then turned and reluctantly walked to meet Rahma as we hailed the taxi and drove home.

Rahma looked at me from her side of the car and smiled "You're smiling" She pointed out

I looked at her "And?

"It's Rayyan" She added

I rolled my eyes "No it's not"

"You two like each other" She said again as I turned to glare at her

"You need to see how he was looking at you back there, when you were talking with his sister. He was in awe" She topped off

"It won't happen" I replied "we are worlds apart" Yet even as I said it, I felt the bitter taste in it.

Rayyan and I aren't world apart. We are two sides of a world, merged together.

"If you say so" Rahma said and turned to her window.

I turned to mine and watched the streets and trees pondering on what Rahma said.

Did Rayyan really look at me? If he did what did he see?

Is it the calm wind lined with soft petals that I see when I looked at him or something else?

Rayyan's POV

"She's definitely special Sir" Bashir said as I sipped my tea and kept quiet staring ahead at the view my office provided.

Ali nodded "Very very special. For you to organize a search team for her parent and change identity"

I fixed my gaze ahead "No i didn't"

They both looked at me and I shook my head "Okay maybe I did whatever"

Immediately after Ammarah left, Bashir and Ali came and together we left to the office. First time coming in to the company after weeks of being missing. The workers greeted and asked about my health, wanting to know if there's anything wrong to which I assured them.

"Everything is fine. I just wanted a break"

They of course absorbed it all in and apart from Bashir, no one in the room knows I'm battling something. Even he knows only to an extent, just the tip not the root of the iceberg.

"So, the first thing we need to know is find out the places Mr Kabeer works and Mrs Hidaya schooled. Then we find who Mr Kabeer is friends with and who Mrs Hidaya fought with. That would narrow our searches" Bashir said

"Yes" Ali affirmed "Then we narrow it down to who lost a daughter in an accident or whose daughter got missing years back"

"Find their names, contrast to see if it matches and then we contact them" Bashir finished off.

I nodded "That is a brilliant plan. You two knows how to tackle things"

"Well you taught us that sir" Bashir retorted
