As they continued watching the movie, Umer's gaze drifted to the novel on the table. Uninterested in the film, he decided to read a page. He randomly opened the book, and his eyes widened at the words, imagining the scene. It was a twisted love, and unfortunately, he landed on page 153 - a kissing scene."This is what you read?!" Umer yelled, making zara jump from her place.
"Ghar chalo batata hu tumhe!" He whacked her head with that book.
Minaheel's eyes widened seeing the book she quickly snatched it from umer's hand.
"Yeh meri hai!" She said embarrassed.
Umer eyes widened, he choked on air, making minaheel more embarrass.
"Mujhe lagi!" Zara pouted angrily, her eyes welling up with tears, rubbing her head.
"Sorry sorry, mujhe laga tumhari hai!" Umer quickly took her in a side hug, kissing the spot where he hit.
"Hamesha mai hi nazar aati hu aapko. Aapne kaha tha aap mujhe sirf health related issues par hi daantenge par aap har chiz par daantne lage ho bhaiya se bhi zyada!" She ranted pouting sadly.
"Abse nahi daantunga faaltu chizo par promise mood mat khraab karo apna!" Umer rubbed her arm.
"Aisa kya hai uss book me jo tumne aise react kiya, book batao meenu!" Zayyan extended his hand.
Minaheel's eyes widened in horror, she gulped hard, her eyes darting between umer and zayyan.
"Bhai wo..!" Minaheel's voice clearly showed her fear.
"Book meenu!" Zayyan intervened firmly.
"Kuch nahi zayyan bhai wo bhaiya ne zoi ko punishment di thi novels se dur rehne ki!" Umer swiftly intervened saving minaheel.
"Wo punishment bohut time phele hi khatam hogayi!" Zara said.
"Ohh mujhe pata nahi tha!" Umer lied.
"Umer mere sath sherwani select karne chaloge?!" Zayyan asked, changing the subject
Minaheel took a deep breath, relieved at the interruption.
"Ji bhai!" Umer stood up.
As Zayyan walked away, Umer leaned in, whispering in Minaheel's ear.
"You owe me this!" His warm breath sent shivers down her spine.
Minaheel's breath hitched, her heart racing. She turned to face him, but Umer had already left.
Embarrassment washed over her. She couldn't bear the thought of facing Umer again until the wedding was over.
She hid the book in her suitcase after umer and zayyan left.
As the night fell everyone dressed up elegantly, zayyan was not allowed to see the bride, so all the boys congregated in the gaming room, while girls gathered in the specious living room, singing and enjoying themselves.
"Saad bhai ap meri team me. Mujhe apni team me koi khadoos personality nahi chahiye!" Umer smirked looking towards zayyan and ahaan.
"Shadeed qisam ki pitayi ki zarurat hai tumhare bhai ko!" Zayyan retorted looking towards Ahaan
"Mera bhai rehta yeh to kaan kheench ke sudhar deta!" Zayyan added chuckling.
"Kya hai mere bhaiya ko kyu bhadka rahe ho mere khilaaf, hania di ko bhadkana shuru kardu ab?!" Umer playfully warned .
Ahaan and saad burst into laughter at their banter.
"Buss umer bade hai wo tumse!" Ahaan said stiffing his laugh.
