Aiman and ahaan sat engrossed in discussing the financial plans of their project, Ahaan couldn't help but steal glances at Aiman, she was all confident and fierce, her points were clear, she was determined to her goals and Ahaan was actually quite impressed with her.

"Impressive!" Ahaan said scanning the file aiman prepared, Aiman's face flushed a deep shade of pink as she cleared her throat.

"Thanks, Mr. Malik. I hope we can stay true to this vision and see it through to the end!" She said with a smile.

"Absolutely Ms.Khan, Your dedication and expertise are exactly what this project needs!" Ahaan said all in his formal tone with a hint of warmness, but aiman smile faltered she liked the way previously Ahaan said her name to saad, she missed the gentle tone of her name on his lips.

"You can call me aiman!" She replied tucking her hairs behind her ear.

Ahaan looked up to see her, and their eyes met, their glance sparked an unspoken connection.They both felt a flutter in their chests, a sensation they couldn't quite explain, nor wanted to acknowledge.Yet, they couldn't help but be drawn to each other, their eyes locking in a long, peaceful gaze that spoke volumes without uttering a single word. The silence between them was no longer just a absence of sound, but a language that only they could understand.

"Aiman would you like to join me for lunch?" Ahaan asked as they were continuously working from morning without any break in between.

"Yeah sure bohut bhook lagi hai waise bhi!" Aiman said closing the files.

As the elevator doors slid open, Ahaan and Aiman stepped in, ready to leave for a lunch. Just then, Saad appeared, heading home after a long day.

"Hey, kaha jarahe ho dono?!" Saad asked wiggling his eyebrows.

"Lunch ke liye jarahe hai!" Aiman replied.

"Aap bhi chalein!" She suggested.

"Nahi bhai mai kya karunga kabaab me haddi!" Saad shrugged his shoulders, ahaan rolled his eyes.

"Tu date person to nahi tha!" Saad whispered smirking.

"LUNCH ke liye jaraha hu!" Ahaan snapped.

"Umer, zara ki tabiyat khraab hogayi hai, ghar aa!" Faaris called out to umer.

"Kya matlab? Kya hua? Fir panic attack agaya?? Yarrr mujhe use chordna hi nahi chahiye tha..!" Umer blabbered

"Chup hojaa kuch nahi hua pait khraab hogaya vomitings horahe hai, fari aur zara dono ko!" Faaris said calmly reassuring umer.

"Dono ko? Sath? Kuch ulta sidha khaliya kya?" Umer asked curiously.

"Ghar aake apni laadli se puchna wohi bataegi kya kiya dono ne!" Faaris said sharply, his voice was clearly showing how angry he is.

Umer arrived to pick her, by entering he found both girls in distress by relentless stomach cramps and waves of nausea, they lacked the energy to answer any of his questions, neither did he asked. He promptly administered medication to Fariha and Zara. Once Zara's condition stabilized, he picked her in his arms carefully and drove back to home.

As they arrived home umer helped zara settle onto the couch, just 10 minutes later Ahaan walked in from office.

"You were supposed to pick her at 8pm, its just 6pm, 8 tak toh enjoy karne dete" Ahaan said with a hint of annoyance.

"Shakal dekhein iski, bimaar padh chuki hai, aagaye mujhe daantne!" Umer rolled his eyes.

Ahaan who had been standing behind zara rushed to her side, his eyes widened in concern seeing zara's flushed face, dull eyes, she looked weak.
