Mahir

The rain reminds me of her. The night when she tried to open up to me, but still couldn't. Seeing her in pain made my every nerve ache, because her eyes are not meant to cry, they are meant to see her dreams come true with me. She doesn't know that one day she's going to be Mrs. Malik. Knowing the fact that she kept my sister safe with her, albeit without her knowledge, has increased my admiration for her. I couldn't yet put into words what I feel for her- attachment, fondness, yearning, warmth or obsession? It's better that she doesn't know it for now. I could feel that Zahra has already observed how i am around her.

After Zahra returned, I gave her a tour of our home and shifted all her belongings to our villa in Palm Jumeirah. She was amazed by the vastness and the beauty of the place. Surely, it was magnificent, and when my sister stepped here, I could feel more warmth and grace filling up the space. It would be more like heaven if she'd be here. A complete heaven.

This place was chosen and designed by my father, so I couldn't leave it.

I'm in my office, enjoying the rhythm of the rain, drops dancing and slapping on the window panes rhythmically. She doesn't like rain, unlike me. I always wonder why. I'm sure that she has a lot of questions that need to be answered about my family, about my uncle,- Mr Masood AKA my father to the world. But only me and Zahra know that he is my Father's younger brother. He took care of me all this time just like a father would. I'm grateful for such a selfless person in my life, he never got married although he's still handsome and there are always women yearning for attention from him. He's a noble man just like my father was.

It's almost been a month since Zahra has been staying here and she's pretty used to everything. I've also appointed a 24/7 female bodyguard for her. She recently began working at the company, and from her exceptional performance on completed tasks, it's evident that she is quite intelligent. I'm proud of my sister. She and Daneen meet regularly on weekends and in between too. Everything seems really fine, yet I see a piece of the puzzle missing. I can't find what or where to find that piece of the puzzle. Why was Monica Smith going to abduct Daneen? Daneen was her boss, and I can say that she can never be the type that people start to hate her. As much as i wanted to ask her this, i want to be patient with her, gentle and not scare her away. All I can presume is that it has to do something with her past. The past that she is living with, the past that she is stuck with, the past that is haunting her.

I spotted the locket on her table, it was mine that my father gifted to me and I thought I'd lost it when I lost my little sister. That was the best day of my life, all because of Daneen. And I'm going to do everything to make her believe how special and lucky she is for me.

The urge to write a note for her was so strong that i couldn't resist, so i wrote it anyway, yet stopped myself from writing something that would make her think that i'm stupid. 'I miss you, all the time.' was what i was going to write next, but thankfully stopped. She doesn't deserve to see my confessions on a small piece of paper; instead I want the whole world to witness them alongside her. It's only fitting that she experiences this, as if she were royalty. Like a princess. I make a mental note to thank her parents for naming her so, Daneen meaning a princess, an absolute princess of my life and my world. It's Friday today and I have something planned for us. Stop it already! Okay, i've planned a dinner for me and Daneen for tomorrow but that would be successful only when Ms. Mirza will approve it. There's a strange feeling of nervousness balling into my stomach, causing me to pace restlessly in my office. I've never been nervous like this before, except I remember the last time I was nervous was in my presentation. I was never good at them, neither I had good grades in my school until my uncle took over as my guardian and i didnt want him to be stressed because of me, so then I started to concentrate on my studies and got good grades.
