Destined for One Another

Destined for One Another (22)

Mahinoor's P.O.V

Struggling with all the textbooks I had bought with Nehmat today, along with some clothes I managed to unlock the apartment door. It was pitch dark, was Rehan back with Alizeh?

Probably. Rolling my eyes at the thought of him leaving me alone once again, I reach over to then on the light only for me to drop my bags on the ground as my mouth dropped open at the beautiful decorations that had been done around the apartment. "Woah," I whispered I locked the door behind me as I began walking towards the well-decorated dining table that had mouth-watering food displayed on it.

Did Rehan do this? I looked around for him before calling out his name, "Rehan?"

"Surprised?" He asked with a soft smile on his face as he walked out of his bedroom.

"Definitely," I replied, "When did you get the time to do all this?"

"While you were busy shopping with Nehmat, I took the time to see everything up as an apology."

I furrow my eyebrows, "Apology? For what?"

Rehan took a step forward so he was just standing in front of me. "For ruining your first day here in New York."

I shook my head, yes it had bothered me last night but this was what we had decided on so I had no right to be mad at him, annoyed at him ignoring me, yes but I wasn't mad. "You do not have to apologize Rehan." I say, "I was not mad at you for going to hang out with your girlfriend but I was annoyed that you weren't answering my calls. What if there was an emergency?"

Rehan nodded, "I know. I swear I won't ignore your calls." 

Smiling at him, I put my hands behind my back excited about all the good food on the table, "Since we have got that clear, can we please eat?" I ask, "I am starving," I hadn't eaten anything other than the chicken pot pie, and raspberry tart from last night. I had tried to. figure out the. coffee machine this morning but couldnt, so when Nehmat and I came back from my advisor appointment, that's when I got something in my system, with the coffee he had made. 

Rehan chuckled pulling a chair out for me, "Mrs Khan?"

I drop my purse and keys, rushing over to him. "Thank you, Mr Khan." He pushed me closer to the table, and quickly began serving. myself food, as he did for himself, "Did you order out?  Because we do have to go grocery shopping, I tried making something. for myself last night, but your cupboard was empty."

"Yeah I  did, and sure we can go tommorow morning, I am free." He answered, "I usually dont buy anything that has a fast expiry. date, because I barely am here. Either I am. at Alizeh's house, or I crash at Azlaan's because their place is closer to the. office."

I nodd as I stuff my face with pasta, "Mhm," I humm finally being able to eat a meal. 

Rehan furrowed his eyebrows, "How long has it been since you ate Mahi?"

"Since last night," I replied, "But that. was after I had tried calling you, so I went downstairs to ask our doormen if there was. a restaurant nearby."

Rehan chewed his food slowly, "What do you mean restaurant? Didn't Azlaan bring your food?" Was Azlaan Bhai my babysitter?
