    "Agar hum wo same burqe wali larki na hote?" She questioned with calmness. Sidharth knew this question would come his way anytime soon and he wasn't sacred or not ready to answer her this

"Shehnaaz pyaar kiya hai kabhi?" He asked in very low and calming tone. She shook her head

"Toh kese smjho ge ap mera jawab?" He kept hand on door behind and lean into her just to brush few hair out of her face with other hand. They had eye-contact with was very deep and intense

"Smjhao hume" She whisper

"Hume nahi pata yeh kya hua aur kese hua but the moment I laid my eyes on yours I knew you are the one I want more like need in my life, you can't control your feelings when you love someone you can't just switch off feeling nahi, hum kuch bhi krlen lekin wo feelings nahi jati for that one person" He tried to explain her

"I could have tried and had happy life with you but I was afraid if she which is luckily you agar koi aur hoti ever come in front of me I would just run for her I know and hum humari perfect happy life kharab krdeti aur apko tab jo bura lagta tha dil tootta ise kuch zyda hota" He continued telling her how other situation he was viewing at that time

"Hume pata hai humne ki hai galti Shehnaaz lekin please humse kabhi dur janne ki kohish na krna humse bardast nahi hoga" He declared. She was hella disappointed at herself at this moment for feeling sorry for him but she saw honestly in his eyes and desperation

"Theek hai" She clears her throat breaking their long eye-contact and slipping under his arm to walk inside her room. Sidharth turn his head to look at her filling glass of water to eat her medicine

"Kitne time se hypertension ki tablets kha rahi ho ap?" He asked curiously, he wants to know every single thing about her now

"5 years" She answered very simply and avoid any kind of eye-contact with him because that only gives her butterflies blush cheeks and she doesn't want them

"Koi event jiski wajha se it got triggered?" He further questioned her. She turn around to look at him with very annoyed expression

"Kitna time hua hai since you have been drinking?" She asked sarcastically. He groan mentally and walked closer her near dressing table

"Hum drink nahi krte" He answered her honestly. She scoffed putting back her medicine box in dressing table's drawer

"Sure shaadi raat ko hum drunk the right? And I was obsessing over some stupid girl right" She pushed his hand away that was about to grab her arm. He couldn't help but chuckle now she's really cussing herself

"Right stupid girl" He smiled nodding his head. Her cheeks heat up in realisation that she called herself stupid

"A-apne mera dimag kharab krdiya hai just leave!" She pushed him in embarrassment as he laughs

"Theek hai hum jarhe hain jaan no need to use your energy for nothing" He teased, she rolled her eyes and fold arm across her chest "I really miss your sleep talk" he added with playful smile knowing this will trigger her

"Konsi sleep talk?!" She almost shout

"Allah-hafiz meri jaan khayal rakhna apna I'll call you raat mein" He ignored her question and went to kiss on her forehead with small smile

"Hume bataye?!" She asked again as he just patted her cheeks and proceeded to walked out of room with chuckle ignoring her yells

   Shehnaaz has now forced salma to sleep in her room just to tell her if she talks in sleep or not. She had no idea that she do something like this in New York also she had her own apartment where she lived alone and she was not allowed to have any kind of sleepover at someone house. This information was new for her that she talks in sleep now she has to know it herself if he was lying or she actually do it in sleep

"Ap mere sath bistar per so sakte ho" Shehnaaz told elder lady for like 5th time now as she shook her head again

"Nahi nahi hum yahan per theek hai apke sath kese soye hum" Salma wouldn't even think about sleeping anywhere near her madam

   Shehnaaz know it's useless to ask her now her answer will be old same like how can she sleep beside her madam it's not right and all, so Shehnaaz decided to just turn off room's light and let zero bulb on she can't sleep in whole darkness, she got inside covers and was ready to sleep when her phone rang which was just beside her on side table

     Shehnaaz has idea who it is so she didn't even bother to look at caller Id and close her eyes thinking he will stop calling her once she won't pick up but she was wrong phone continuously went on ringing and she couldn't sleep at all. She sit up on bed to see salma was already looking at her with suspicious gaze. Shehnaaz scoffed

"Humare shohar ka he call hai baji" Shehnaaz told her before she start thinking wrong who's calling her at this hour of night. Salma made oh sound before laying back on her bistar

"Bolen?" Shehnaaz picked up call with very rude attitude not caring about salma who was giving her disappointing gaze

"Walaikumsalam" Sidharth sarcastically spoke making her eyes roll "kesi hain ap?" He asked like he didn't just annoyed her few hours back

"Kyun call kiya hai apne is waqt?" She asked laying back inside her covers with phone against her ear

"Kaha tha hum karenge" He reminds her

"Kyun?" She asked

"Kyun matlab? I'm really missing you right now hume yeh bikul pata nahi tha apki adat hojaye gi hume" He breath out. She felt nice and kinda overwhelmed because of his random confessions he's making nowadays and also the way he's too gentle with her

"Sojaye" She told him

"Ek min hold krna jaan" He asked. The butteries those danced in her tummy, this man.

    She heard him talking to someone more like insulting someone and she already knows he's with murtaza, cause only he has no self respect for himself when it comes to him, it was confirmed when she heard Murtaza's laugh following behind his insults

"Salam bhabh-" Sidharth snatched back phone from murtaza

"Ap bahar ho?" Shehnaaz asked

"Hmm...apke bina ghar jane ka dil nahi kar raha bas dua karen neend ajaye" He spoke. This man is actually whipped for her and she's getting idea of this slowly

   Their was silence on call. She didn't speak just kept quiet she has no words to his confession, she still can't believe that she's actually woman he was telling he cared about and how aggressive he got when she insulted herself back than, she still was in shock she needed time to take this all in

"Jaan" He called. His voice got softer and deep, she hummed

"Hume apse mohabbat hogayi hai" He spoke out making her heart skip a beat
