A Love Delayed, A Dream Renewed.

11| (Unexpected meeting)

Sabar and Fahim, had a great time exploring the beautiful city of Dhaka. After finishing their sightseeing tour, they returned to their team hotel. Sabar was about to enter his room when Fahim approached him and asked if he would like to visit his house. Sabar was thrilled at the invitation, and immediately agreed to come along.

"Okay, then I will talk to the team manager and ask for a private car for both of us," said fahim.
"Cool," replied Sabar.
While driving, Sabar observed a flower shop and requested Fahim,
"Fahim, please stop the car."
Fahim pulled over and questioned Sabar, "What happened, Sabar?"
"Look at the flower shop, I'm going to your house for the first time, your mother will be there, going empty handed." "It doesn't work for me."
Sabar told Fahim and exited the car.
Fahim got out of the car and followed Sabar. And responded,
"Sabar, you don't have to be so formal, but yes, my mother loves roses."
Let's get it." Sabar shot back.
"can you please make a bouquet of 100 roses Please" said Sabar to the shopkeeper.
"Sabar 100 roses?" "Are you sure?" Fahim responded with surprise.
"Well, why not?" "Moms are special," Sabar responded, a broad smile on his face.

"Thank you for purchasing; just a short time ago, a girl purchased 50 roses, and now you guys have made my day." Thank you very much. The shopkeeper expressed his gratitude to Sabar.

Sabar and Fahim both smiled and gave a extra 1000 thousand to the shopkeeper.
Sabar and Fahim got into the car and headed towards Fahim's house.

Dua and Falaq, , were playing Ludo on the ground and having a jolly time. Suddenly, the doorbell rang, interrupting their game. Dua, who was closest to the door, thought it could be her parents who had come to pick them up. Before leaving, she instructed Falaq,

"I'm going to open the door. You stay here and don't cheat in the game."
Dua picked up a cookie from the dining table as she headed towards the door, and started munching on it as she walked.
As soon as Dua opened the door, she was left speechless. Sabar, was standing on the doorstep along with Fahim and Sabar was holding a big bouquet of roses in his hand. She was stunned and thought it was a dream. She looked around, hoping to discern whether she was hallucinating or the scene was real.

Fahim, noticing Dua's confusion, greeted her,
"Dua, you're here?" and

brought her back to reality.
Sabar smiled slightly, appearing pleased to see her at Fahim's house and he started muttering "daaanm she again?"
Dua's voice was trembling as she spoke,
"I'm sorry. Yeah, please come."
Fahim's sarcastic reply was,
"Obviously, I will come. It's my house, after all. Sabar, come."

Sabar and Fahim entered the room, and the three of them proceeded to the drawing room, where Dua and Falaq were playing. Upon seeing Fahim, Falaq ran to him and hugged him, and said hello to Sabar. Dua also came in and greeted Sabar with a smile.
Fahim introduced Falaq to Sabar and teasingly added,
"Sabar, do I even need to introduce Dua again?"
, which made Dua blush and lower her eyes. Before Dua could answer, Falaq interjected and said,
"Dua api came at noon, and you know she bought my favorite cookie as well."
Fahim jokingly retorted,
"Oh did I ask you? Didn't I tell you not to interfere between elders?"
Fahim then asked, "Where is mom?"
Dua replied, "She's in the kitchen. Let me go and call her."
Fahim, however, had other plans and said,
"No, I will go and surprise her." He left the room, leaving Sabar, Dua and Falaq behind.

Dua, offered Sabar a glass of water, but Falaq insisted that she would do it.Dua asked Sabar to sit. Sabar smiled warmly and replied,
"Yeah, thank you. You sit too, please."
Dua sat across from Sabar, trying to keep her emotions in check and avoid bursting into tears.

Sabar looked over at Dua and noticed that she was holding a half-eaten cookie. He couldn't help but smile to himself. And he starts saying in his mind
"There is something truly magical about this girl, shy, non expressive, less spoked also, she's attractive and cute too"
He then turned to Dua and said,

"cookie ko intezar nahi karwate hain itne dair, You can finish it if you like."

Dua, feeling a bit embarrassed about being caught with a half-eaten cookie, blushed and responded with a sheepish smile.

SABAR POV-

I and Dua had been meeting for three days in a row now, and as wee met again, I couldn't help but feel that there was something special about our meetings. I turned to Dua and asked
,
"Isn't it amazing that we're meeting for three days straight now, Dua?"

Dua, who had been secretly waiting for this moment for years, lifted her eyes towards Sabar and replied with a smile,
"Yeah, it's wonderful to see you."

Dua's pov:

My inner voice echoed in my mind,
"Most probably, it's because I've been waiting for you for years.
Maybe it's because of my prayers and belief that we are meeting like this
. I wish I could tell you how much I love you, Sabar."
I didn't dare speak these words out loud, but i was hoping that someday, Sabar would know how much I cared for him.
" I guess It's all written destiny " Sabar said.
Hearing Sabar talk about destiny surprised me, and I asked him,
"Do you believe in destiny?"
Sabar simply replied, "Maybe I do.".

*****

Fahim and her mother arrived, and Sabar greeted Fahim's mother warmly with the roses he had bought for her.

"Oh my God, thank you, son! It seems like I have good fortune today - everyone is giving me roses," Fahim's mother said.

"Who else gave you roses now, Mom?" Fahim asked.

"Who else? My Dua," Fahim's mother replied.

"Oh, that means the girl who took 50 roses was Dua," Fahim said.

Sabar glaring at dua -

Sabar gently glared at Dua. He saw her smiling and started muttering in his mind, "She looks so amazing. Why do I feel so attached to her? As if she's the one I've been wanting to meet always?"

Sabar's thoughts broke when Falaq came in and offered him a glass of water Fahim, Sabar, and Dua's aunt Flora engaged in a conversation while Dua sat quietly with Falaq, trying to contain her emotions.
