It was 4 PM. The weather was cloudy. It was the end of the college day. All the girls were leaving to go home. Faiza and Rumaisa were waiting at the bus stop near the college for Ayesha and Phuppi. After a while, Ayesha and Phuppi arrived, and Adil also came with the car to pick them up.

"Assalamualaikum," Faiza said to Phuppi.

"Walekum assalam, dear," Phuppi replied lovingly, and everyone started getting into the car.

Phuppi and Adil sat in the front. In the back sat Ayesha, Faiza, and Rumaisa. Today, Rumaisa was going with them because Ayesha insisted. Rumaisa's house was far from Ayesha's, so it was Adil's responsibility to drop Rumaisa at her home. Since Ayesha's house was on the way, Faiza and Ayesha went to their home first. Now Adil, Phuppi, and Rumaisa were heading towards Rumaisa's house. When they arrived at her house, Rumaisa quickly got out saying goodbye, and Adil also got out of the car to follow her.

"Madam, take your bag," he called from behind, and she stopped.

"Oh, I forgot in a hurry. Thank you," she said begrudgingly, taking her bag.

"I can't believe my brother chose you for this job. You can't even remember your bag, and madam wants to work in the mafia," Adil laughed.

"Like you know everything," Rumaisa retorted, making a face.

Adil was about to say something, but Rumaisa hurriedly went inside, ignoring him.

"This is for you, Faiza," Fardan handed Faiza a phone.

"But what will I do with a phone?" Faiza asked in surprise.

"What do you mean? Whenever you need, you can call or message us," Ayesha said.

They all had dinner together and sat in the hall chatting when Fardan gave Faiza a new phone.

"But I don't know how to use a phone," Faiza said embarrassedly.

"What?? Are you from this era or not, sister-in-law?" Ayesha asked in astonishment. Fardan knew that Faiza never had a phone, so she didn't know how to use it, which is why he was silently listening to their conversation.

"Yes, I've never used a phone in my life," Faiza said, avoiding eye contact.

"No problem. I will teach you, or you can learn from my brother," Ayesha said with a smile.

Faiza and Ayesha continued talking while Fardan silently listened. After some time, everyone went to their rooms.

**************************************

Ayesha came to her room, lay down, and started using her phone.

*42 Missed Calls*
*2 Messages*

She opened the messages, which were from an unknown number.

*Assalamualaikum
How are you?*

All the calls and messages were from the same number, so Ayesha ignored the calls and replied to the messages.

*Walekum assalam
Alhamdulillah
Who are you?*

No sooner had she sent the message than she received a reply.

*I am the one whose flowers you ruthlessly threw in the trash.*

Ayesha, making a face, started typing.

*Then I did the right thing.*

*I am your true lover. No one can love you as much as I do.*
