"Ma Sha Allah,how pretty my daughter is looking!",Sitwat aunty hugged Azka,"Do enjoy you both,after I'm recovered I'll arrange the Walima of you two",she patted their cheeks while both of them looked at each other with awkwardness.

"Where would you like to go?",Azlan asked while fixing the seatbelt.
"Your wish,I don't have any preference",she replied while looking out of the window, that's when he remembered where he used to go with Shanaya for dinner.
"You can tell about your favorite cuisine then I can decide" "Umm,I guess you've forgotten my family,we didn't have this chance of choosing which cuisine will be our favorite",he realized what he's done,"I'm so sorry that's not what I meant,I..." "You don't need to say sorry,I've got it what you're trying to say,this is why I said that I don't have any preference" "I hope you didn't mind,I'm extremely sorry,I know I've always been so mean with you and I'm truly sorry for my past behaviors" "I got you,forget about the past incidents",she wasn't understanding whether she should look at him or not and decided to look anywhere other than him.He brought her at his favorite place where he and Shanaya used to come in holidays.
It was a rooftop side which Azlan booked cause otherwise that side is always soo crowded,Azka was looking at the surroundings and found it soothing."Would you like to have Italian food?" "Okay,let me try",she said with a slight curiosity.
After the waiter went with their orders,Azlan said "This is one of my favorite restaurants,specially this rooftop side",Azka looked at him and her hairs were dancing over her eyes cause of wind blow,"Hmm this side is beautiful",she said while moving her hairs,"You're liking the place?",Azka was surprised to hear this but nodded."If you go to the left corner side,from there you can have a whole view of the city",her eyes sparkled with curiosity and he noticed it.
"Let's have a look come",she didn't think much and went with him.Azka was following Azlan's way and finally she saw a mesmerizing view,she never thought the city looks this much beautiful at night.
"Wow,this is so amazing",she smiled looking at the view, "Come here,you can have a more beautiful view from here",Azlan was standing just beside the wall and was telling Azka to come.
"No I'm here",she said with nervous tone.
"What happened?Everything fine?",he asked while going towards her.
"Umm nothing,I've height phobia actually so I can't go that much close to the wall",he noticed how much nervous she became just like that day when she was donating her kidney to his mom.
"You know what,we should face our fear,come with me and see how beautiful it looks here" "No I'm absolutely fine",she was going back towards their table and he called her name,"Azka trust me,you'll be fine",she turned towards him and he took her hand.
They were standing right beside the wall and Azka couldn't hide how terrible her condition was,she didn't open her eyes for once,"I can't stand here please",and Azlan tightened the grip,"Just look at your front not below",she opened her eyes and looked at the front,it was a surreal feeling for her,the night was seeming so soothing,"Now tell how is it?" "Surreal" "Told you",that is when
there came a noise from somewhere and she came back to her sense as where she was standing,Azlan noticed her condition and quickly took her back to the table."Are you fine?I am sorry actually I thought you'll get mesmerized by the look and forget about your phobia" "No it's not your fault,I shouldn't have gone"

Till they came back, aunty was sleeping.
At Azlan's room...
He was feeling restless and the flashback of his holding Azka's hand was coming in front of his eyes again and again.
"What's happening to me,that was my favorite restaurant and I took her there,where Shanaya used to go with me always",thinking this again and again he opened his laptop to see the wedding photos of his and Shanaya. The restlessness was getting increased. He opened the photo of that time when he was looking at her before saying Qubool.
He started caressing that pic and tears started to flow.
"I shouldn't have taken her there, Shanaya believe me I don't know why I took her there, you are angry with me?",he took her photo which was just beside his bed and hugged it.
