Be My Special One

There was something about him that drew me in

SALAR

So many thoughts ran through my mind as I drove down the road, my eyes occasionally glancing over at the passenger seat where Ehmel sat. She looked so pretty and innocent, her eyes filled with curiosity and wonder as she looked out the window. I couldn't help but feel a sense of protectiveness towards her.

I couldn't understand why I didn't want her to sit with Sarim earlier, and now I had even played a song for her. "What was happening to me? I, Salar Tazmeer, the tough and unemotional guy who didn't let anyone get close. But there was something about Ehmel that made me want to protect her."

As I continued to steal glances at her, I couldn't help but notice the way the wind played with her hair, covering her face in a delicate veil. She looked even more beautiful in that moment, and I found myself getting lost in her innocence.

Shaking my head, I forced myself to focus on the road ahead. I couldn't let myself get distracted by her, no matter how captivating she was. Yet, every time I looked at her, my heart skipped a beat. It was as if she had cast a spell on me.

As we entered the gajrey shop, I couldn't help but notice the excitement and joy on Ehmel's face as she gazed at the colorful gajrey. I couldn't help but smile at her infectious joy.

My mom asked for some gajrey and Ehmel ordered them without hesitation. and without thinking, I voiced my own request. "Pack two more," I said, surprising both Ehmel and myself.

"What for?" Ehmel asked, clearly taken aback by my sudden generosity. "The two additional ones are for you," I explained.

Ehmel was still confused. "For me? why the gajray I ordered are for everyone, including myself," she stammered, her cheeks turning a faint shade of red.

"I got them for you because I know you'll wear them for the haldi ceremony, but I also wanted to give you something right now. I thought you might like them, but if you don't, you can just throw them away," I said nervously,

But to my relief and delight, Ehmel's eyes lit up with happiness. "No, I love them! Why would I throw them away?" she exclaimed. I could see the happiness in her eyes, and a small smile played on my lips. "Now let's go," I said, taking her hand gently as we walked towards the car.

Before getting into the car, Ehmel tried to wear the gajray, but she was struggling to lock them in place. I couldn't help but laugh at her cute attempts. "It's okay, I'll do it," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "Yeah, I can see that," I replied, smiling at her playfully.

And then it happened. As I helped her to wear the gajray, I felt something inside me. It was a strange feeling, almost like butterflies in my stomach. I didn't know what it was, but I didn't want to brush it off. I just wanted to enjoy this beautiful moment with Ehmel, helping her wear the gajray that I had gotten for her.

But then, I shook myself out of my thoughts. "What is happening to you, Salar?" I scolded myself internally. I couldn't let myself get too attached to her. I had to remember my responsibilities and duties as the eldest son of the family. And with that, we drove away from the gajrey shop.

As we arrived at the resort, I stepped out of the car and took a deep breath of the fresh, crisp air. Suddenly Ehmel, spoke up. "Thank you," she said, turning to me with a grateful smile. I raised an eyebrow in confusion, unsure of what she was thanking me for. Her next words cleared it up.

"Thank you so much, Salar, for everything," she continued, her voice filled with genuine gratitude. I couldn't help but smile at her words and the warmth they brought to my heart.

We made our way inside and were greeted by Sarim and Hala, who were already there. Sarim wasted no time in teasing me. "What took you so long?" he said with a mischievous glint in his eye. I shot him a playful glare before heading to my room.

EHMEL

As I stood on my balcony, the cool breeze of the evening air enveloped me, and my thoughts drifted to Salar. I couldn't believe that I was thinking about him, the guy I have been fighting with and the guy I don't even like. But there was something about him that stirred up butterflies in my stomach.

I couldn't help but replay the events of earlier in the day when he surprised me with gajras, It was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture from someone I thought I had nothing in common with.

And then, he had helped me put them on, It was such a beautiful moment, one that I couldn't help but smile at as I recalled it.

It was as if a different side of Salar had been revealed to me, one that I had never seen before. And to be honest, it was quite captivating. Despite our constant bickering and disagreements, I couldn't deny the fact that there was something about him that drew me in

I shook my head, trying to clear my mind of these thoughts. I couldn't possibly be developing feelings for Salar, could I? No, that was impossible. We were just two people who happened to cross paths, and that was it.

But deep down, I knew that there was something between us, something that I couldn't explain. And as I closed my eyes and let the peacefulness of the evening wash over me, I couldn't help but wonder what the future held for Salar and me.

I was lost in my own thoughts, completely unaware of my surroundings. Raha's voice suddenly brought me back to reality. "Hey, girl, lost in which thoughts?"she asked. I snapped out of my daze and replied, "Oh, babe, nothing. I'm just so excited for your wedding."

Raha smiled at me, her eyes shining with happiness. "Aw, my baby. Now, let's have dinner and then come down to the basement for dance practice, okay?" she said. I nodded eagerly, looking forward to spending more time with my best friend and everyone.
