___

It was morning time, yet another morning, yet another day

As the sun shined outside and the birds chirped and flew freely in the sky still the day was a little different from how usually it was as

"Zahira wake up! It's already late wake up now!!"

Came Hazira's voice from down, soft mewls of disapproval left from the mouth of the little pixie who was still asleep

"Coming Ammi" Came her groggily voice, contemplating whether to be a good girl and wake up just as her ammi said or continue to sleep and satisfy the little sleep demon inside of her

It was weekend for godsake

'Weekend?' why did that word sound all of more familiar to her, what is the day today

'5,6,7? 7!!!!' and she quickly got up as her eyes widened

Her eyes quickly went on to the calendar which showed the date the most precious day to her

"7! Today is 7th October my birthdate!!!!" And she screamed excitedly

Even though today she had become 12 years old still her childishness hasn't gone away as she stood up on her princess bed and started to dance

"Mary it is my birthday! Yay!!!" She shrieked in excitement as she danced with her beloved soft toy which hadn't changed in years

She quickly down from her bed and started to make her way outside, she wished good morning to every maid and servant she met on her way,

who in turn wished her birthday and smiled at her childishness She was like a ray of happiness in this mansion, making everyone smile as she hurriedly rushed down to her hall

Abbas was seated on the sofa, a pair of glasses over his eyes as he read the newspaper and side by side siped the tea when suddenly he felt a pair of hands wrap him from behind and came a sweet voice

"Abbu! Good morning" He looked behind to see it was no other than his princess, a big smile came on his face

In other cases, Abbas wouldn't even care to spare a smile even if he had cracked a billion-dollar deal but a simple gesture by her daughter and her sweet smile was enough to melt his hard-rock heart

"Good morning and Happy birthday to my sweetest princess zahi" He said as he kissed her on her forehead lovingly

"Thank you abbu" She said and hugged him tightly

Rabeea who was working around, telling the maids on hearing the little father-daughter duo said

"Arre, aaj Zahira beti ka birthday he, janam din Mubarak ho malkin " Rabeea wished to which zahira pouted as she parted from her hug

"Aunty ek samay aap mujhe beti bolti ho aur ek pal mein maalkin, mein aapki beti jesi hu bass!" and she hugged her as well thanking her,

Rabeea just smiled at her innocence, from kitchen Hazira also came to the hall

Zahira looked at her mother but the moment she saw what was in her hands made her eyes twinkle and mouth drool as she squealed

"Muffins!"
