ch-35 complicated or strained?

Aafiya's pov

Well looks like my brothers had really hard worked on the decorations. Purple is my favourite colour and they probably knew it. For the first time my birthday is being celebrated this grand. I don't even know what to feel right now.

Happy because finally I am celebrating my birthday with my brothers? Or sad because this never happened only because of them? My thoughts were broken when zayan bhai came running to us.

Zayan- now give her to me abbu I'll keep her company. He said making abbu frown.

Mustafa- she's not a thing to be passed on here and there.

Zayan- I didn't mean it like that abbu. He said whining a little while abbu just shook his head.

Aaban- aafiya you come with me. He said suddenly appearing and then took me away from there while both my father and brother glared at him.

As we walked, I mean as I was being dragged by aaban bhaiyya, he took me to some people who were standing at a distance. They all looked bhaiyya's age.

Aaban- these are my friends princess. He said making me stand infront of his friends.

Shoaib- you look different in person aafiya. He said and I looked at him confused yet being a little shy. But he looks a little familiar to me don't know why.

Harib- manners first shoaib, assalamualaikum aafiya. He said whacking his head while the man who i suppose is named as shoaib frowned. While I also replied him back.

Shoaib- sorry naaa, I forgot. Assalamualaikum aafiya. I am shoaib, shoaib malik. He greeted politely and i replied back shyly but then i widened my eyes in a little shock.

Aafiya- wait! Shoaib malik!? You are Ayesha's cousin aren't you?? I asked suprised.

Shoaib- oh yeah I am Ayesha's cousin, you know her?

Aafiya- yes I do, she's my bestfriend. I said and he grinned.

Shoaib- well then if you are my sister's friend then you are my sister too. He said and I felt a little shy but then a firm voice came.

Aaban- don't you dare! She's my sister.
He said and shoaib bhai rolled his eyes. Ayesha has once told me about her cousin who's shoaib malik, a very well known business man.

He's actually a really reputed and respected man in the business industry just like my bhaiyya. I just didn't know they were friends. And didn't even imagined even once that i would meet him.

Harib- well if you both are done then let me introduce myself too. He said breaking my thoughts.

Shoaib- you don't even need a introduction dude, i am preety sure she already knows you because of how famous you are. He said and I gave a nervous smile to them, nope i don't know him.

Aafiya- I am sorry I don't know you actually- I started, feeling bad for not knowing him. yes don't judge please that's just how I am.

Harib- oh no no aafiya, please don't apologise, ye toh kuch bhi bolta rehta hai.(He just keeps saying anything He wants) He said cutting me off and then glaring at shoaib bhai.

Shoaib- yaar don't make fun of me atleast infront of my sister. He said being offended.

Aaban- MY sister. He said glaring at his friend.

Harib- I am harib qureshi, your bhaiyya's close friend, actually best friend to be precise but he doesn't except it even though it's true. And also i am a lawyer. He said ignoring his friends banter while I smiled at him.
