Tangled in Love

Chapter 26: Hallucinating or An Enemy?

"I am staying here with you,
Okay!",

Mayaan's face softened, she appeared to be quite pleased from my decision. Her agreeing on my stay worried me cause as far as I know Mayaan, she would never do anything to let me stay with her in one room.

But still I wasn't sure cause the girl who only watches a horror or a suspense/thriller movies. She imagines creepy things at the moment when I was making a romantic gesture. She pushes me back while mentioning all those weird movies and the incidents that have happened in it.

I was in the valley of my thoughts that my sight caught Mayaan preparing the couch for me to sleep on it with keeping a blanket and a pillow.

Usually my girlfriends have invited me to share the bed with them but this was Miss. Mayaan Ahmed the girl who doesn't even wills to share a blanket then how could she be inviting me on the bed.

"Omair,
The bed is set, you will sleep here",

Mayaan informed while taking her dairy out from the drawer near her bed.

"Wait
Did she just said the word Bed!",

Buzz,

Buzz,

Buzz,

My phone vibrated, I searched for it with my eyes closed and found it under the pillow. I grabbed it, hardly opening my eyes and saw a message on the screen, I tapped on the message and it opens. My eyes widened and I sat straight while rubbing my eyes cause still I couldn't believe on the sentence appearing in the message;

STAY AWAY FROM MAYAAN OR ELSE SHE WILL BE KILLED IN FRONT OF & YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE HER AGAIN EVER!!!

I combed my hair with frustration,

It means Mayaan wasn't hallucinating, there was some one in this house and that person has seen me staying here tonight. I looked at Mayaan she has fallen asleep while writing her dairy, I stood up and walked towards her.

She was in sleep while sitting on the couch hugging her dairy. I gently took the dairy beneath her arms folded on it and closed the book while keeping it on the table & sat beside her on the couch. She was peacefully sleeping, the rooms light were off. Mayaan was writing her dairy from the light coming through the window, curtains were kept aside. I stood up and closed the curtains and then gently took her in my arms in bridal style and kept her on the bed. Covering her with the blanket and laid next to her on the bed and cuddled her in my arms.

There were thousands of reasons that scared me and pointed towards those people who never wanted Mayaan to be in my life but who is this person who wants me to stay away from Mayaan,

Is it a guy who is Mayaan's secret admirer or lover?

No doubt I have seen how she can turn the eyes on her without doing anything cause it's her simplicity that does it's work.

But what if its Mayaan lover than he would never try to hurt her actually he would harm me not her.

I gently pulled her more closer and kissed her nape. She sighed like she felt it, having her close was comforting me but I couldn't ignore the message plus it was from an unknown number.

My mind was still debating and counting the people whom I had in my blacklist meanwhile Mayaan moved she turned herself facing me but I closed my eyes to act like I am sleeping. She tried to pull herself back but my hold was strong, she tried few more times but I didn't let her go. Finally she gave up and rested her forehead on mine while softly stroking her finger on my face,
