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

chapter forty five

.
Reem's POV
.

Ayesha and I were finally back at work, it was nice to be back, I missed work and I missed spending time with Ayesha.

It's been a week since we have returned, our colleagues had hundreds of questions regarding our marriages, they all were curious to find out our stories.

We have done two small events after our comeback, and alhamdulillah they both went well.

We were sitting in our room, I was enjoying a cinnamon roll with frappe, she was having a taco with peach ice tea.

"What do you think of Ahmed's retirement party?" She asked me while reading the list of upcoming events.

"I don't want to take it up, it's going to be boring" I scrunched my nose.

"And Mehta's success party?" She asked

"I don't know" I shrugged.

"What happened to you?" She asked

"Nothing" I shook my head.

Just then my phone rang, I smiled looking at the caller.

"Assalamualaikum" I said

"Walekum assalam beta, I hope I'm not disturbing you" Juveriya aunty said.

"Not at all" I smiled.

Then we just chatted for a while after that I hung up the call and returned to Ayesha.

"So where were we?" I asked

"Wow! Pari is interested in working now" she laughed making me smile too.

"Yaar! Juveriya aunty is even better than what I thought she was, she loves me so much, sometimes I think she loves me more than mumma ever did" I said.

"Oh come on maami loves you a lot" she said, I just shrugged. "Why does aunty call you pari?"

"There are two reasons behind that, she calls me pari because I look like one" I said arrogantly, she shook her head, "and she has a habit of giving nicknames to everyone, you know like Hunny, bunny, pari, sehar" I said.

"Wait a minute! Sehar is not a nickname" she said.

"It is, her real name is sehrish, but because aunty calls her sehar, everyone starts to call her that"

"Wow! I didn't know that. What's the scene with her by the way? Is she Izhaan's sister or cousin?" She asked

"Sehar is Izhaan's chacha's daughter, there was a time when he shifted to Canada with his family, but since Sehar was really close to her dadi, she stayed back. After dadi passed away she started living with Izhaan's family, A couple years ago they returned to India and wanted her to go back to her family, but she refused, and even aunty didn't want to let her go" I told her the entire story.

"She must be really attached to Juveriya aunty to choose her over her real family"

"True! But there is one more reason"

"What?" She asked curiously.

"She is engaged to Burhan" I said.

"Really?" She gasped, "they would look adorable together"

"Yes our cute tom and jerry" I smiled.

A knock on the door disturbed us.

"Who is it?" I shouted, the door opened and Asim sir came in, we both immediately got up.

"Oh hello sir" I said

"Do you guys have time? I want to talk about something" he said

"Sure, please have a seat" Ayesha asked him to sit, then all of us settled down.
