Dil Ibbadat (on hold )

4. already in love ?

Tanzeel's pov :

I end the meeting and after a moment I heard anklets sound from outside. This was my new distraction. My first and only distraction. I didn't want to distract by it at all of my mind was still there.... I shushed away the thoughts as I had to greet all of them and I hate this get to gathers.. I took my phone from the desk and made my way toward the dinning area..

I was on my way to dinning area scanning each and every corner of the house. And I stopped as I saw the knowing figure. Not her again !! I walked and want to ignore her but my eyes caught her struggle with her white netted dupatta. I took a close look and her white dupatta was stuck with the flowerpot.. no actually its artificial flowers and her dupatta was stuck with a metal wire... I took some steps toward her but before I could say or help her she pulled her dupatta forcefully and it tear apart. How could be someone so clumsy ?
"Ya Allah.. ab change karne jaana padegaaa.. itne fute Naseeb kyun he hamare ?" She said and turned but she bumped into me and because of my unknown presence she stepped back to which flowerpot fall on the floor and her head was about to hit the wall but my hand unknowingly move to protect her head and her head hopefully didn't hit the wall.. thanks to me :)

In try to protecting her , i was so close to her.. so close that I could feel her heavy breath. I was looking down at her and my mind was started scanning her whole face.. her perfect jaw , sharp and perfect shaped nose and her glossy dark red lips.. and her big eyelashes. I could watch this face for my whole life without regretting. It's worth my time... her face hold so much peace that I'd never felt in my life since age of seven.

She opened her eyes after some second and her blue eyes ! I think Allah defiantly took a day or a month noo.. I think whole year to make her feature this heavenly. She looked up to and her eyes meet mine. I looked straight in her blue eyes that was shining brightly.. I move my eyes from her eyes to her hand that was fisting around her dress nervously. "Miss khan.. aap thoda khayal rakha karee.. abhi aapko lag jaati to kya hotaa ?" I said looking in her eyes. She was still there and not answering to my question.

After some second she stand straight and look in my eyes and here.. the Ashi khan I knew.. the one who never let her ego down and never be afraid of anything and nothing could make her nervous. But my closeness ? Hell i made her nervous.. I smirked at my thoughts and she put her one finger and pressed it against my chest to which I moved back and she move forward. "Mr khan.. you should better mind your own business than mine.. and if I hurt myself there is so many people to take care of me so don't worry about that. So aap thoda side me hatiye aur hame jaane de" She mockingly and I move aside and she made her way toward her room.

I also made my way towered the dinning area.. "Assalam o alaikum" i said and sit in front of my father. We chat about our work for sometime and than Ashi also joined us. I didn't know why but every time i look at her she looked more beautiful than ever.. how could someone carry this beauty so effortlessly ? Her jaw was tight with no emotion on her face. Some minutes ago I met a clumsy and careless ashi but now that ashi was gone. She was different in front of every one.

She sat there straight and and after someone they serve us our dinner and we were eating it silently. No one was uttering a word.. only the sound of her bangels were echoing in the room and damnit.. it was distracting me so badly. If no one could see me , I would definitely left my spoon and would also stop the time and stare at her forever. I doubt myself that it was just a day not a day just hours and I already started losing my control over my heart. And the only reason of this condition of mine is THE ASHI KHAN !! Great..

I was glancing at her as she was in front of me... beside my father. But this time her eyes hold mine. It's just some second of eye lock and my heart suddenly started beating fast ? Why ? What I do to control this new hormone's side effect ? And the next moment she averted her gaze and focused on her food again.
___________________________

Me and ashi was alone in the hallway again.. like last night. I think I should go to my room and work there instead of wasting my time but my feet were not working and they were froze there.. we were standing in the hallway in the same position from last 10 minutes and non of us utter a words. Good. It's better not to talk.. but it was getting awkward as hell. "Ham.." She said at the same time when I Cleared my throat to speak.
"Ham keh rahe the ki what's the Matter with Ali ? I mean.. yk what I am talking about.." She said looking in my direction.

"Ye baat aap hamse na kare to hi behtar rahegaa.. aur aapko in sab mamlato me padene ki koi zarurat nahi he.." I said in my cold ? Noo.. my usual voice tone.
"What do you mean by ham is sab mamlato me na pade ? Haydrabad hamara bhi sheher he.. uske aadhe kaam-kaaj ham sambhalte he to in sab mamlato se dur reh kar ham kya kare ?" She said in her not so sweet tone.

"But you are a woman and they don't do this kind of work when both of us getting so much loss by the problem. And they can't Handel this type of situation.. so.." before I could complete my sentence her gaze was on me.. as if she would just going to kill me.

"What's with that glare ?"
"Utter a word against me and you could found yourself on the floor under my penciled hills.. understand ? Don't ever dare to underrated my power and my strength.." She said and left me behind in shock.. I love her.. no what ? I love her attitude.. my heart still not ready for love and never gonna ready for it. Just stay away from it tanzeel..
