The sun was already set and the street lights were switched on. I increased my pace but there was this strange negative feeling enveloping inside me. There was a whistle voice echoed in the atmosphere and my breath hitched.
I tried not to look at the guy coming in my direction. I was literally jogging trying my best to walk faster. Sweats were trailing down my back and it sent chills to my spine.
Allah please.
He started whistling again and my heart came up to my throat. It was suffocating me.
"Hume bhi lift karwa do." His voice seemed closer which made me jump in my place. I started running and all I could hear were the whistles and laughs.
Finally I reached my house and started banging on the door. I looked back and luckily no one was there.
"I'm not your servant, that I'll open the door in seconds." Zubair's voice cut the heavy atmosphere and for the first time it calmed me a little. I immediately walked inside and was about to hold his hand but he moved back giving me a disgusted look and walked away.
My entire body was trembling in fear, I don't know if I am overreacting the entire situation or not but I'm scared, it was terrifying. I looked around but no one was there. When did anyone support me emotionally?
I ran towards my room and shut the door tightly. I slid myself and sat on the floor bringing my knees to my chest and hugging myself to avoid the shakiness of my body.
The whistles and laughs were ringing in my ears giving me chills. I tried to distract myself from all of this but was failing miserably. Taking the phone from the bag I dialled a number after making sure the room is locked.
The bell was ringing and I was about to cut it but the other end was received.
"Hello." I tried hard to be calm. I will just talk to him about random things and cut the call.
"Zahe naseeb. Biwi ki pehli call. Chand kaha se nikla hai." (The one who is lucky. Wife's first call where did the moon rise from). His soft voice came from the other end and I was trying hard to calm myself down but my voice died down and tears started rolling down like a dam.
Sob after sob left past my mouth without any control. He is there for me. He will not abandon me. I trust him with my life.
"Amyrah?" His voice got alert and I couldn't stop myself from crying.
"Amyrah, meri Jaan kya hua hein?" (Amyrah, my love what happened?). His soothing voice was calming my nerves but the voices of those whistling were still echoing in my head making it difficult for me to breathe.
"Kya hua hein meri Jaan ro kyu rahi ho?" (What's the matter my love, why are you crying?).
"Vo.." I hiccupped and was unable to utter any word.
"Okay okay relax take deep breaths."
"Mai hu Amyrah, mai yahi hu." (I'm here Amyrah, I'm here).
"Tum theek toh ho na, kaha ho?" (You are fine right? Where are you?).
"Ghar." (House). I breathed out and heard him taking a deep breath.
"Ghar par kuch hua hai?" (Did something happen at the house?).
"Nahi." (No).
"Accha chodo phele relax karo, mein yahi hu." (Okay leave it, try to relax. I'm here).
"Project ho gaya hein?" (Is the project done). He asked in a soft tone, soothing down my muscles and distracting me from the evil world.
"Nahi." (No).
