If you let me love you.. (Season II)

chapter thirty three

.
Izhaan's POV
.

I was in a conference room, a presentation was going on, the lights were off, there was only one spotlight on, it was on Shubhangi, who was giving the presentation.

My phone vibrated in my pocket, I took it out and was about to disconnect the call, but stopped when I saw it was Reem's, a smile appeared on my lips.

I turned my face away from everyone, I put my hand over my mouth and answered the call.

"Wow! It's your third call since morning" I said in a low volume

"Are you counting the number of times I call you? Does it really bother you that much?" She asked, I chuckled softly

"Your calls can never bother me cupcake" I said lovingly, I heard her giggle, it was so beautiful.

"Izhaan, focus" Athar tapped on my shoulder and pointed at Shubhangi

"Sorry" I mouthed. "I'm in a meeting right now, I'll call you after it finishes" I said.

"What is more important, me? Or the meeting?" She asked, I could imagine her puffing her cheeks and knitting her eyebrows together, I smiled at her cuteness

"Nothing is more important than you for me, tell me, should I leave the meeting?" I asked

"No no I was just joking, I will not disturb you now, bye" she said and ended the call. I beamed and put the phone back in my pocket.

When I turned I found Athar glaring at me, I smiled sheepishly and signalled him to concentrate on the meeting.

After the meeting finished, everyone left, I also got up and came to my room, I wanted to call Reem.

I sat on my chair and was just about to call her when the door opened and Athar came

"You are totally whipped" he shook his head and dropped down on the chair in front of me.

"As if you are not" I raised my eyebrows, he rolled his eyes.

"I'm talking about you right now, I am so surprised to see you so devoted towards Reem, I never expected you to be like this, just some time back you guys were always ready to lock horns, and now you surrender to her so easily" he had surprise on his face, I smiled.

"I have surprised myself too, I feel my love growing everyday for her. And earlier there was ego between us which used to stop me from lowering down in front of her, but now I can do anything just to see a smile on her face" I said

"Woah! I'm so happy for you and I will pray to Allah that he keeps you and her together always" he said

"Aameen" I replied, he chuckled

"When do you plan to tell about her at home?" He asked, and I shifted uncomfortably.

"I really want to tell about her as soon as possible, but you know everything" I sighed

"You tell aunty nicely she will understand"

"I want to tell her, but I'm nervous about it, even though I have already told at home that I will marry a girl of my choice, but still I feel a little uncomfortable in going and telling them that I'm in love"

"Oh come on, you are over thinking, just go and tell aunty that you have found a perfect entertainment item for her" he laughed, and a chuckle escaped from my mouth too

"Seriously Izhaan, you guys make me believe that the opposite really attracts, you are such a calm person and she is a walking fire cracker, you don't eat sugar, and she is surviving on it, and you ...." he had mischievous grin on his face
