chapter 16: making plans.

Author's POV:.

Kang was admiring tahreem when she was drinking her hot chocolate. He felt so happy when he saw her blushing face earlier. He just couldn't believe how his flirting had turned into real feelings. He just wanted to spend every moment of life with her. But he knew that, tahreem was a heard nut to crack. She can't let her beliefs down to be with a guy. Thats why he started to get know her religion and he found it fascinating. Even though he research it a lil bit. He just wishes that one day he could have her in his life... She makes him crazy. Kang had never felt so attractive towards a girl as he felt towards tahreem....

Tahreem again felt him staring at her so she putted her drink back saw him and thats when their eyes locked to each other. Tahreem thought what's he even see in her, she's not like the girls he worked with. Even though her body was fully covered but she still felt like she's exposed in front of him. He gaze was so intense and with love that she felt myself melting a lil. Slowly she said without breaking their eye contact. " Kang, I can't reciprocate ur feelings pls back off or else u will end up hurt. "

" Why can't you see, how much I like you? Why can't you give us chance?. " He said with a pleading look, he couldn't control himself.

" I have given you a chance Kang. This friendship is a chance. U know I can't date. What else do u want me to do. Even if I want I can't do that. I don't want any of us to get hurt at the end if we expect anything else from each other. u are one of the people I trust and adore Kang. Pls don't make me take a decision which make you feel hurt. Pls understand my side. " She said while looking into his eyes, which showed pain.

" Then tell me whats the other option I have to be with you. I like you reem, I really do. I can't just be a mere friend to you " . He said. Haley and do hyun were talking and taking selfies and videos together but when they saw these both talking with seriousness. They left the table to give them privacy.

" Okie then be a Muslim and marry me? Will you? Bcz that's how u can be with me for the rest of ur life. " She said and Kang was shocked after hearing her words. He didn't even uttered a word and was silent.

" See? U can't do that right. That's why I said , we are good as friends and that's all we can be!. So pls don't get close to me. U don't know how I'm controlling myself by not give in to ur liking. U are great person Kang and not just that. U are really attractive . U can have anyone u want, don't make it hard for both of us. " She said.

" Okie, tahreem. I... I won't say those things but u can't force me to not to like you. I promise that I won't get close to you. Okie now.....w..well I'm happy that at least u were honest about ur feelings that u are trying to control urself from falling for me. " Kang said and laughing at last sentence to get the mood lighter. He was already broken but didn't want tahreem to feel bad so he tried to make her laugh.

" I didn't said I control myself from not to fall for you. I said I control myself not to give in to ur flirting. Which is very hard btw " She said while teasing him back. He was relieved that at least he made her feel lighter about this situation.

" I bet, it is. Not everyone can do that sweetheart. " He said and she just laughed saying he will never be serious. After 5 minutes the couple came back and sat to their places.
Haley said.

" All cleared? Now can we have a real talk? So guys I'm thinking of having housewarming party tomorrow!!!."

" Tomorrow? Weren't you the one who told u me last night that u want it next week? " Tahreem asked.

" Yeah, but now I want to do it tomorrow bcz cmon now we have a whole apartment to ourself. No little dorms, no restriction. We can go everywhere every time. Isn't worth celebrating as soon as possible?. " Haley said excitingly and everybody just laughed at her reaction. Do hyun leaned to kiss her cheeks and whispered " U are really cute babe". Seeing that gesture, tahreem just look down. She was happy for her friend. She hasn't seen Haley that happier as she's with Lee do hyun. She just wished to see them married one day... Well coming out of her thoughts . She remembered that she wanted them to tell something.
