"Will you cancel our boating trip because now you'll be working at that famous restaurant?" Rehaan walked out of the bathroom.

Shahwar had changed into another dress for their short outing but started to frown seeing Rehaan in a shirt that was unbuttoned from the top exposing his chest a bit. Who was he trying to seduce with that? But who was she to ask anything.

"I feel so suspicious." She huffed. "They are known for not hiring people even with experience, I wonder how they said yes to me." She slid her purse over her shoulder.

Rehaan at once grew alarmed, "They're no dumb people, I'm sure your cooking skills left a remarkable impression on them." He cleared his throat knowing the truth behind it.

He was the reason why his wife was hired but of course the restaurant would benefit because she did make outrageously delicious food. He'd never let Shahwar know. He was already trying to end the lifespan of the restaurant that had rejected his wife. Who would say no to Rehaan Kazmi? He could send tons of people to any restaurant with one recommendation and the owner would flourish with money within days.

"Hmm." She nodded and pouted to herself.

"Okay, now don't forget your promise, you said you'll take me to show the city around." He took her hand in his and tried to change the subject.

"I never promised, I only said I would take you." She tried to furrow her brows together with all her strength but ended up looking like a cute little bunny.

"I only do commitments my love, remember?" He bent his face closer to hers and Shahwar instantly stepped backwards away from him.

"Door rahein aap." She turned her head sideways.

(You stay away.)

"Kaisay?" He feigned innocence.

(How?)

"Jaisay pehlay rehtay thay hamesha. Ghussa kar kar ke." She was basically talking to herself, but so softly and adorably that he wanted to forget about the boating and carry her to bed.

(Just the way you used to before. By getting angry all the time.)

"Shahwar, meri jaan." He called her with such affection that she wanted to melt at it at once, then she turned around to look at him and her eyes fell on his unbuttoned shirt for trying to get attention from women out in the city, her softness vanished making her frown.

(Shahwar, my love.)

"Chalein wese bhi dair horahi hai." She opened the door and went out.

(Let's go we're getting late anyway.)

"Hold on," He went to the lounge and came back with a huge bar of chocolate in his hands, "Your snack for during the drive till we get there." He knew she loved that chocolate. One of the few things he knew about her very well.
