Chapter 2:

Well yesterday was a blast, after lunch I went to shopping with my sister Humna, then to spa and after that our dad joined us at a famous five star hotel for dinner. Obviously I had to celebrate my freedom from my hectic exams.

Today, for a change I did the cooking because during my examinations my maid, Peenu aka Parveen was in charge. Yuck! I hate her cooking skills yet she was good at other household chores so we really couldn’t kick her out. I don’t mind at all as I love cooking soo much. I used to watch my mom cook food so passionately that I started falling for it too. I still remember baking shortbread cookies for the first time with her and eating that raw cookie dough…haha it was fun.

“Dad!! Humnaaaaa!! Food is ready; you guys can come downstairs now.” I said while setting up the table. Peenu aligned all the glasses respectively and poured water in them.

“So what did you make for dinner Farah?” Humna asked excitedly.

“Well I made pulao, fried chicken along with it some fries and some dinner rolls. Oh and for desert I made egg pudding ’. I said like a proud chef.

“Any specific reason??” my sister again questioned.

“Nope....” I smiled and started eating my dinner, Soon it was desert time. I took out the pudding n flipped it upside down and started serving everyone. Later, my dad asked me “So, Farah do you want to apply for university this year or next?” very seriously.

Oops…it was now my turn to speak, I’ve been ignoring this question since past 2-3months. Honestly speaking I still don’t know the answer to it. But I have to tell him my decision now, as my genuine excuse is also over…here goes nothing… I took a deep breath.

“I’ll apply for my university next year...” I said waiting for them to say something but they didn’t. So I continued with my speech. “….because I need a break from everything, I need to take out time for myself more and enjoy myself one more time before I again jump into a hectic life schedule and plus the competition is very tough these days for medical students and dad you know how badly I want a admission in Karachi’s top medical university..So I guess I just need more time.” I paused again waiting for one of them to say something but no, they still seem to be unconvinced. What has gotten into them, help me god?

“I will be continuing my preparations for the entry exam i.e for the medical universities …that’s studying too you know which will move parallel with me fun life,” I said as happily and convincingly as I could.

“If that’s your decision then I’m with you and that also means I want good results from you,” dad said getting up to go back to his room.

“Thanks dad,” I smiled and hugged him.

“But we’ll start with the study part in August cause I want to enjoy my summers to fullest”. He nodded and left the room.

“Yes!!! Finally some official mental freedom!!” I twirled around in rejoice until my sister gave me a weird look.

“What??” I smirked.

“You lucky girl! Dad would have never allowed me to take one year break, I envy…” my sister got interrupted as her mobile alarm starting ringing. “OOHMYGODDD!! HUMSAFAR is on… gotta run sister, you know how much I love that show and yea I envy you,” she chuckled and went into the TV lounge.

I didn’t feel like watching TV at the moment and anyways I’ll watch it in repeat telecast, it’s not like it’s running anywhere or I'm going anywhere. With that thought I went to my room and switched on the computer and restored the memory of my web browser. Soon tabs of Facebook, Youtube and Google opened then I realized that I was searching about 1D yesterday but couldn’t continue it because I got busy.

I opened the first link I found on the search page and started reading about it, soon I got to know each lad had their own story which made them unique on their own and when collided together they make a perfect band. I still had to search more on it, other than that I figured out that all the lads were not of same age, the eldest one was Louis then Zayn, Liam, Niall and in the end Harry. In-between Zayn and Liam’s birthday stands my birthday too... wait why am I relating my facts with them??

Google is stupid! I need more info, so I searched about One Direction one more time but this time on Youtube. Soo many links! This is going to be exciting now. I started off with songs because I wanted to listen to it first. The first link I clicked was their song called “One Thing”. Ooh the horrid scene! Their clothes!!! Forget about the song but their clothes...omfgosh!!! How on earth are they even breathing? Especially Zayn, he is wearing the tightest clothes among all the lads and above all he is wearing black studs…ok weird.  He seemed soo disturbing to my eyes…goddd. About the song? It was ok I guess. The next link I clicked was there song called “WMYB”, it was a pretty amazing song which made me interested in finding about them even more.

There I noticed for the first time Zayn smiling. It was special like the way he grins widely, his tongue rolled up and stuck between his teeth so you see just a little of his tongue..That was…attractive. What is happening to me?? I went through their X-factor video dairies and tour dairies…they seem to be a very amazing band.

My hand covered my mouth as i yawned noisily, I should really sleep now, it’s pretty late… I glanced at my alarm clock very lazily which was on my bedside table…FUCKKK!!! Its 3:18am already and I have to wake up again in few hours for my fajr prayers. Before sleeping a thought again came to my mind

 Am I falling for the correct band???

Next morning I woke up around 11am…the first thing I checked on my mobile was a message from my bestie Amber who lives in U.S:

            “Wake up sleeping beauty! I got a news to tell you! We need to skype now! I’ll hopefully go to sleep in an hour or two. You better be quick…..x”

I quickly changed my cloths, brushed my teeth, made a messy pony tail and went straight to my computer. I soon texted her back:

                        “I’ll be online in 10mins….just woke up.”

We did general talking, I told her about my news, she was happy. Then I told her since past two days how badly I'm searching about world’s top boy band One Direction and how I’ve started to like them for their songs actually…ok sorry  I know I lied to her but what if she also thought that it’s a band for small girls etc. yes I get insecure about myself and my decisions at time.

***** 

Its been two weeks since I'm watching every interview of One Direction and guess what I'm getting obsessed about them. I mean who wouldn’t, they act like their own selves…cracking jokes, being immature idiots on national television yet soo down to earth, like who does that? Only One Direction.  Soon I decided to make an account on twitter because that’s where you can contact your favorite celebrity and the lads had their accounts there. righttt??
