They came back hotel and slept. Next day would be their last day in Wales. So They would have a long day tomorrow. They had to explore the full city by tomorrow. Next day, they woke up, had breakfast
and went to visit the heritages of wales.

They visited National Showcaves Centre for Wales, Devil's Bridge Falls, Welsh Wildlife Centre, Plas Newydd House and Gardens, King Arthur's labyrinth, Brecon Beacons National Park. They enjoyed the whole day exploring every single place which they had decided to visit.


The next day, they went back London and got busy in their respective work. Shehnaaz was preparing for her papers and Sidharth was a little busy with business work. They didn't meet with each other daily.

Shehnaaz's semester exam started after two week making both of them more busy in their work.

It was one fine day, Shehnaaz and hayat was sitting in their University canteen having their lunch and talking about on going issues. Shehnaaz phone ranged.

"Ye Sidharth bhai itna kyu call karta hai. Subha se leke teen bar call kar chuka hai. Half an hour bad hi to ghar ja rahe hai call karne ka kya matlab. " Hayat said munching her sandwich. Shehnaaz glared her and said, " Dad ka call hai. " . Hayat hurriedly shut her mouth.

"Salam baba. Kasi hai ap? " she asked greeting him

"Thik hu. Ap kasi hai?? Apko koi problem to nahi ho rahi hai na? " Her father asked out of concern. He used to ask these same questions everyday as Shehnaaz was the only daughter of Sheikh's. From last three generation there weren't born any girl child in Sheikh family. So, when Shehnaaz born everyone was so happy and she is the apple of their eyes.

"Baba thik hu main ap pareshan na ho. " She assured her father.

"Ap ki tests kaisa ja raha hai? " He asked

"Acha chal raha hai sab kuch. Bas thoda dar lagta hai papers ke bare mein soch ke. " she said cutely making her father chuckle.

"Kuch nahi hota bacha aur do hi to exam baki hai fir ap Islamabad a jaiyega. Apki birthday bhi to a raha hai. " Mr. Sheikh said

"Baba mein do din mein kai...." She was cut off by Mr. Sheikh

"Apne kabhi akele mein birthday nahi manaya hai Shehnaaz. Hum jante hai apko waha akele mein takleef hogi isiliye humne pehle hi ticket book karaliya hai. Rehan apko details bhejdega. " saying Mr. Sheikh cut the call making Shehnaaz tensed as this would be her first birthday with Sidharth.

"Shehnaaz tu sach mein ja rahi hai? Sidharth bhai ko bura lage ga. Unho ne kitna kuch plan kiya tha. " Hayat said worriedly and just then Sidharth came there with Faraz. He heard everything and felt dishearten. He strode out of the canteen. Shehnaaz waited for sometime before chasing him to the parking. Sidharth got in his car and was about to drive off. But seeing Shehnaaz, he waited till she settled inside.

"Sidharth ap gussa ho? " She asked cutely. Sidharth didn't reply. He just started car's engine.

"Sidharth mein kahi nahi ja rahi hu. Ap..." She was cut off because of sudden break. Then, she realised that they are at The Ivy Tower Bridge. She used to go their a lot to spend some alone time.

Sidharth was about to get out of the car but Shehnaaz hold his hand and said, "Aj yaha nahi bethna kahi aur chaliye. "


Sidharth obediently turned on car's engine.

"Sidharth? " Shehnaaz wrapped a hand around his left arm which was resting on gearv and kept her chin there.

"I am not going. Please talk to me. " Shehnaaz said being impatiens. Sidharth stopped the car in a isolated beach and adjusted his seat for sitting comfortably.

"Shehnaaz I am not angry or upset. It's just.." He paused and pulled her on his lap. She rested her legs either side of his torso.

"It's your first birthday with me. So I wanted to celebrate it together. It's totally fine if you go. " He said stroking her cheeks lovingly.

"Leave it. We will think about it later. " Saying Shehnaaz hugged him tightly.
Sidharth also wrapped his both arm around her waist pulling her close to him.

They broke the hug and came out of car.

"Kab ja rahe ho Islamabad? " He asked walking beside her at sea side.

" Mein nahi ja rahi hu. " She said stubbornly.

"Shehnaaz listen, you can't do this. You had never celebrated any festival without your family and now you are thinking of.... " Sidharth was cut of as Shehnaaz phone rang.

"One second Baba call kar rahi hai. " She excused herself and picked up the call.


"Ha baba mein chachu ko call karne hi wala tha " she said hurriedly as soon as the call connected

"Call karne ki jaroorat nahi hai Sana. Apki ticket cancel ho gayi hai. " Mr.Sheikh informed her.

"Thik hai baba. No problem. Wase bhi yaha Hayat hai mujhe akela mehsoos nahi hoga. " She comforted her father.

"Nahi Shehnaaz Izhaan and Vihaan London ja raha hai kuch business deal lock karne. So they will accompany you on your birthday. "

"Baba ap unhe takleef na de. Main thik hu. " Shehnaaz said

"Takleef kaisi Shehnaaz. Tum to jante hi ho un dono ko. Agar mein mana bhi karunga fir bhi nahi manenge. Isse acha ja raha hai to jane hi du. " Her father said and she chuckled as she know how much possessive Izhaan and Vihaan are for her.

"Thik hai baba. Jaisa unko acha lage karne dijiye. " Saying she cut the call.

"Sidharth ticket cancel ho gaya hai. Ab main nahi ja rahi hu kahi. " She said wrapping arm around his neck. He also wrapped hand around her body and nuzzled his nose in her neck.

"Kaun a raha hai? " He asked from her neck.

"My elder brother and cousin. " She said caressing the back of his neck.

He just hummed in response.
