 She walks into the class. The classroom was filled with students. Only she was fresher. Other students got enrolled at the school a year earlier than her as she joined in the mid-year.

She had not seen anyone belonging to a poor background, all the students seemed from richer backgrounds.

She sat on the last bench in the last row and fetched out a book from her bag.

"Hey, Are you the new girl who arrived in mid-section?" a girl asked enthusiastically. Saliha raised her head, a girl wearing a bit bigger spectacles frame which was quite suiting her face. She was grinning. She had straight black hair and a slim figure. Saliha throws a smile at the girl.

"I am Hania, I am in your grade," the girl said, stretching her hand in front of her, Saliha shook hands with her and said, "Hello, I am Saliha,".

"So, what was the reason for you moving here all of a sudden?" Hania asked and sat on the bench next to her.

"If you dared to tell anyone who you are and where you live...." the Devil's warning words echoed in her head.

"Nothing, just had to migrate here. I want to study medicine and in my hometown there is no medical field institute," she said, hesitant. Hania nodded.

"Have you walked around the whole institute?" Hania asked while writing something in the book. She was indeed talk-active.

"No, not yet," said Saliha.

"Fine, I am obliged to show you around. I have been studying here for a few months. My father is in the Battalion, and he often moves around the country. We came here to the town 9 months ago. Childhood memories, we used to live here when I was 4, and at the age of 4, I had to leave this town due to my father's job and finally, I am back," she said.

A girl entered straight away into the classroom. Saliha discerns her. This girl was there when Saliha was almost about to get bullied, and she was the only one who came to blows with that senior guy, named Emad. Saliha already knew that this girl had temper issues, and she instantly bullied the bullies. This girl is a wild cat.

She was looking around for a place to sit and after a while, she got the seat on the bench next to Saliha and Hania.

"Hey, another newbie," Hania congratulated him.

The girl looked at her and smiled. It was the first time Saliha had seen her smiling.

"Hey, I have seen you," she said to Saliha, who hesitantly looked at her, "Yeah, I have seen you as well, you were great," said Saliha.

"Where?" asked Hania.

She chuckled and told her everything.

"Holly moly, you offend a senior? You are indeed something," she said happily.

"Well, it was fun," said the girl. "My name is Hunza, I just moved here because my previous institute was unable to see my pretty face because I broke the principal's face," she said, apathetic.

Both Saliha and Hania gasped.

"You did what?" asked Hania, astonished.

"You heard darling, luckily it was only his face I was aiming at his balls," she said.

"Whoa, Whoa, Whoa calm down, you are indeed so dangerous," said Hania.

They were chatting with each other happily. It was the first time Saliha had friends to talk with.

He was sitting in his car for more than twenty minutes, but there was no chance of her coming.

He had punched the steering in frustration.

"Where the heck is she?" he muttered and, after a while, she walked out. He looked at her angrily. She was looking around nervously.

"What is she looking for? Am I her servant? What should I do now, lift her in my arms and help her get seated," he said, angrily, and got out of the car.

She was thinking about how she would go home, as Aunt Eliza told her that Roman would pick her up from high school, but there was no sign of him arriving.

All of a sudden, a car hastily stops in front of her, making her startled. The door opened, and he appeared with his glory, annoyance, and invariable arrogance. He got out of the car and walked towards her while clenching his teeth. She walks backpedals.

"What are you waiting for? Madam?" he scowled, clenching every word under his teeth.

"I, I was looking for you, I never knew that you were going to take another car," she said while staring at the car, afraid, and he realized that he was not in the same car he was in the morning.

His blue eyes filled with anger, and he walked towards the car and opened the door and got in.

She was staring at him afraid. She took a deep breath and walked towards the other side of the car.

She got in and he started the car. The whole journey went on in silence.

*********

"Saliha dear, how was your day?" asked Eliza, smiling. She was going somewhere with her husband. She was looking beautiful wearing a long red dress and silver jewelry.

"It was a wonderful day, aunt," she said, smiling.

Roman was sitting on the couch and typing something on his phone.

"See, I have told you that you are going to like it there," she said, happily.

"I have made a few friends, and they are so cool," she said innocently. He looked up at her instantly and his eyes laid on her. There was something in his eyes that made her shiver through her spine.

"Okay dear, I am leaving. Your uncle is waiting in the parking yard. Please take good care of yourself. We will be back by the morning," she said, smiling.

"Morning?" she asks, hesitantly.

"Yeah, they live in different towns," said Eliza, smiling. She seemed slightly nervous.

"Oh dear, don't worry, we will be back soon. You are not alone, Roman is here," she said, pointing at her son who was staring at nowhere on the painting expressionlessly.

Without a single word, he got up and walked towards his bedroom.

Eliza headed towards the parking lot.

Saliha took a deep breath and headed towards her room. Every time she went to her room, she was obliged to pass his room, which gave her dismayed feelings. She was not cowardly and abject, quite the contrary, but he always gave her the feeling of Androphobia.

The slow music could be heard, and the identical signature fragrance was indicating that he was inside. He was talking to someone on the phone.

"You know what, I don't care about her, just forget about today," he was telling someone on the phone.

"Just leave, tell me what you are doing?" he asked, as he was talking to someone on the phone.

"Oh ho Munaza, don't worry, I am coming," he said, smiling.

She felt her heart drop to the stomach.

"He's got a girlfriend," she thought sadly.

Just then, the door in front of her opened hastily, and she found him staring at her, scowling.

Yeah, she is so dead.

His blue eyes were furious. She felt he had snatched her soul away. Her legs go numb.
