Sometimes we fall in love with
ideas not people~A hand came out of the blanket and searched through the bedside table for the mobile which was ringing for the third time. After idly swiping yes from his thumb, without seeing the caller's id, Murtaza picked up the call. His raspy voice resonated through the phone.
"Who the hell disturbs at this hour of the night??"
"Hosh mein aao miyan, raat nahi subah ho rahi hai!! wHo tHe hElL ke bache tumhara aba baat kar raha hun!"
His father spoke in a sarcastic way.
"Oh jee Abu, kkhairyat...ahhh?"
He abruptly stood up from his bed, resulting in him being entangled with a duvet and landing direct on the marble floor."Khairyat ke lagte kuch!! Today is your sister's mayoon and you are sleeping like there isn't any tomorrow! You should have been supervising the decorations lekin nahii!! Miyan ko neend aziz hai bohat!! I am going to confiscate your mobile phone for a week if you dont show up here in fifteen minutes! Understood?"
His father's authoritative voice sent chills down his spine. No matter how much old he became, he was treated like a baby as he was their youngest child.
He glanced at the many messages which had come from his juniors, who were mostly girls. It was normal for him as he had over the time become one of the university's popular guys because of his looks. Recently, his number was leaked. So it had become his routine to get messages from all the desperate girls from the university. This all added a boost to his manly ego. Leaving them unread, he went to the washroom to freshen up.

Patience is your power~
"Aagaahi waqayi azaab hai bhai! I wish I didn't know about you and Mahrosh aapi! I mean now I would look at her with the perspective of she rejecting my brother. I don't want to go there tonight!!"
Daneen said to Zaim, her voice mixed with annoyance and melancholy.
"This is why I wasn't telling you anything! Daneen brace yourself, you have to pretend as if nothing happened or you know nothing!"
Zaim said, patting her shoulders.
"Ahhhhh!! I really don't want to join them for tonight!"
Her annoyed expression, which was most of the time on her face , looked cute.
"But you have to! Now no arguments! Go get ready. You have even promised her that you will dance on her wedding!"
Daneen left an exasperated sigh and left the room to get ready.

Happiness is not by chance, but by choice~
As Daneen entered the house, she slammed into someone. She looked up to meet his eyes. Charcoal orbs against walnut orbs made her heart drum against her chest. She hated that man with all her guts, but he seemed to enjoy teasing her.
