' پھر میرے حصے میں آئے گا سمجھوتہ کوئی
آج پھر کوئی کہ رہا تھا سمجھدار ہو تم'
' Phir mere hisse me aayega samjhota koi
Aaj phir koi keh rha tha samajhdar ho tum'

Sarah quickly pushed her phone under her pillow when she saw the ticks turning blue, indicating that the text has been seen.
Not even a minute later, her phone vibrated with notification and she checked it. Her eyes widened and she rushed out of her room.
" HAIDIII." Sarah called from the lobby and Haider looked up.
" I'm coming, wait." He replied climbing three steps at a time.
" Aree rukooo. Paani leke aana!" Sarah yelled and he almost fell hearing her.
" What?" Haider asked unsure.
" Mere room me paani nhi h. Aa rhe ho toh leke aana." Sarah said and walked back to her room.
While Haider stood in the middle of staircase still processing her words. Shaking his head at her thought processing he walked back to the kitchen to fetch water and ran back to her room.
Not bothering to knock he just pushed the door open to see a startled Sarah.
" Pagal aadmi!" Sarah glared at him rubbing her chest.
" Itna kya darti ho yaar tum." Haider rolled his eyes passing the bottle to her.
" Ab lgta h dar toh kya krun." Sarah shrugged while Haider plopped on her couch.
" Why are you here at this time?" Sarah asked already knowing the reason of his visit.
" You are aware." Haider shrugged.
" Am I?" Sarah asked innocently.
" I don't have enough time to play so I'll go straight to the point," Haider said, narrowing his eyes, " what did you texted me?" Haider smirked with mirth dancing in his jade black eyes.
" You can anytime open our chat and read it to know." Sarah smiled sweetly.
" Girl, just say it on my face." Haider urged.
" You want me to repeat what I said?" Sarah asked.
" I want you to say what you texted." Haider corrected.
Sarah sighed opening the water bottle. When she noticed him staring at her intently, that's when she realised that he won't budge.
Gulping down the cold liquid she kept the bottle aside and looked back at him. Their gaze locked for hardly few seconds when Sarah looked away rubbing her palms. She can never hold eye-contact.
" Haider."
" Hmm?"
" Thank you! For giving me the best days of my life. Thank you, for coming back to us, to me. Thank you, for being the same guy I wished to be friends with. And Thank you, for being with me." By the end of her statement Sarah was again looking at him with a genuine soft smile.
" Don't thank me Sarah. I didn't do anything for you. Those days spent with you are best of my life too, I won't forget them ever. And coming back to you, toh tum meri aklauti dost ho, tumhare paas hi toh aana h mujhe. Aaj ya kal I'll forever come back to you! And for being the guy you befriended, tumne hi mujhe wo shakhs bnaya jo aaj tumhara dost h! I'm Haider Aamir for the world, but Haidi only for you! I stay with you, because I want to. Tum wo shakhs ho jiske paas mujhe kabhi na kabhi lautna hi h. For my ownself." Haider replied with a soft gaze, his face was calm and a genuine smile stretched on his lips.
