Aafiya and hamza stood up at once while hannan walked towards them casually.

Hamza- what are you doing here? He asked stiffly, he didn't even know what to feel right now. Happy to see his bestfriend or scared because hannan is infront of aafiya aswell.

Hannan- people come here for shopping, so I am here for that only. He said sarcastically making hamza frown and aafiya roll her eyes. Why does this boy come everywhere she goes to irritate her?

Aafiya- wow what a "unique" thing you are doing. She said in same sarcasm as she folded her hands.

Hannan- I wasn't talking to you. He said making her blood boil instantly.

Aafiya- yeah you weren't, but atleast one person should speak up to put sence in your brain.

Hannan- and what sence did you put in my brain? He asked with a tight lipped smile. But before aafiya could answer, the other brothers walked towards them.

Aadil- hannan? He said with a frown being a little suprised by his sudden presence.

Hannan- Assalamualaikum. He greeted everyone, his irritation towards aafiya on his face now turning to a calm and happy expression as he met the brothers.

Aaban- kaise ho beta. (How are you child) He asked keeping his hand on hannan's shoulder.

Hannan- theek hun bhaiyya. (I am fine bhaiyya) He replied with smile.

Saad- why haven't you visited us yet? Mumma and abbu are wanting to meet you too. Afterall it's been a long time. He said and hannan nodded.

Hannan- I'll visit soon to meet uncle and aunty.

Zayan- well i've been already listening alot of things about you lately. And by that it looks like you have changed a little bit.

He said casually clearly hinting towards aafiya's conversation about him. Hannan briefly took a glance of aafiya who was silently witnessing the exchange between her brother's and hannan.

Hannan- don't care about what others say about me bhai. You know me well and that's enough for me.

He said turning to zayan with a soft smile on his face. Zayan understanding the meaning behind his words just chuckled. Looks like the enmity between Hannan and his sister has reached onto a level, it was amusing yet concerning a little.

Shayan- how's uncle and aunty? He asked.

Hannan- Alhamdulillah they are fine bhai. He replied and the conversation went on for some more time untill aafiya finally spoke up.

Aafiya- i think we should leave now. She said stopping the conversation between them.

Saad- but we haven't had our dinner yet.

Shayan- yeah, we were about to anyway but then hannan showed up.

Hannan- oh I am sorry that I interrupted you all. I actually didn't know you all were here too. I just saw hamza and this Ms.whatev- I mean aafiya, so thought just to say hello. He said quickly changing his words at the last when the brothers raised their eyebrows at him.

He clearly didn't know how protective they can be towards aafiya. Aafiya rolled her eyes seeing the way he was actually trying to be normal with her in her brothers presence. Two faced! She thought.

Hamza- aafiya is right, we'll have dinner some other time, now let's just head home. He said making hannan raise his eyebrows while the others agreed anyway.
