**"Khamoshiyon ki chadar tale, jab raat ne angdaayi li, Chandni ki chaadar mein, do dilon ki mulaqat hui.
Aapki muskuraahat, zindagi mein ek roshni ban gayi, Us raat, soyi si duniya mein, sirf humari kahani jagi."**
Translation :
"Beneath the veil of silence, as night stretched its wings, In the embrace of moonlight, two hearts began to sing."
Ayesha was deeply engrossed in a novel, her phone dimly illuminating her room. The clock ticked past 12:30 AM when a notification popped up: a friend request from @Ahmed_Rehman. She felt a surge of mixed emotions-excitement, curiosity, and a hint of nervousness. With shaking hands, she accepted the request. Almost immediately, a message appeared:
**Ahmed:** "Hi"
**~Ahmed**
Ayesha hesitated for a moment, her heart racing, then typed back:
**Ayesha:** "Hello"
**Ahmed:** "Soyi nahi abhi tak?"
("You haven't slept yet?")
Ayesha clicked her tongue, realizing she'd been lost in her books. She replied:
**Ayesha:** "Haan, novels padh rahi thi." *nervous emoji*
("Yes, I was reading novels.")
**Ahmed:** "Ohh, but apna khayal bhi rakho, health pe asar pad sakta hai."
("Ohh, but take care of yourself too, it might affect your health.")
**Ayesha:** "Hehe, haan... kabhi kabhi ya phir hamesha hi, curious hoti hoon ki aage kya hoga, isliye raat bhar jaagti rehti hoon. Waise thode se dark circles hain."
("Hehe, yeah... sometimes or maybe always, I'm just curious about what happens next, so I end up staying up all night. By the way, I have a little dark circles.")
**Ahmed:** "Dark circles clear kar lo, severe na ho jayein. Jab tum mere paas aogi to phir raat ko sone ka time nahi milega winking emoji."
("Clear you Dark circles, don't let them get severe. When you come to me, you won't get time to sleep at night *winking emoji*.")
Ayesha's eyes widened at his double entendre. She quickly typed back:
**Ayesha:** "Mujhe nahi pata tha aap aise bhi hain."
("I didn't know you were like this too.")
**Ahmed:** "Main kaafi surprises de sakta hoon. Waise tumne kya socha? *laughing emoji* Main to kitaabein padhne ki baat kar raha tha, lekin agar tum chaho to aur bhi koi problem nahi hai."
("I can give many surprises. By the way, what did you think? *laughing emoji* I was talking about reading books, but if you want something else, that's not a problem either.")
Ayesha was stunned, her cheeks flushing.
**Ayesha:** "Nahi, nahi, main woh matlab nahi tha... umm..."
("No, no, I didn't mean that... umm...")
