Chapter Three - Birthday
(Amreen's Pov)
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday Hus-sain, Happy birthday to you!"
Everyone cheered as Hussain cut his birthday cake. Zeenat and Sanaya stood in line to get a piece of cake, as I thought I'd wonder around their place. It was a small cozy little house, not too posh, not too expensive looking; I mean it didn't represent any type of famous household at all. It seemed like an ordinary place. It surprised me a little as being rich and famous would usually mean great living style especially in a sophisticated way, what i'm trying to say is awesome houses, best cars, furniture of high class, none of these things were in their house so definitely this had made me question myself.
I walked out towards the balcony and took the view on. It was almost 5pm as the sun was setting down, it looked beautiful the sight.
"Lovely, isn't it?" I heard someone say
I jumped in fright as soon as I heard the voice and turned around to see Hussain
"Sorry I didn't mean to startle you" he spoke
"It's okay" I replied turning back towards scenery.
"You didn't eat anything" he spoke
"Actually ghar se kah kar aayi thi, bhook nai hai" I replied looking up at him
"Yahan aare so pata tha aur ghar se kahyi" he spoke
"Actually mai ana nai chah rahi thi, mere doston ne keench kar le kar aaya"
"Mai tumhe acha nai lagtha kiya"
I looked towards him and spoke "ache ya bure k baat nai hai bus mujhe ye parties wagera jaane main koi interest nai hai, I have other things to do in life"
"Other things, jese k" he asked
"Working towards my ambitions, goals and future"
"You know Amreen, you have a whole life ahead of you, why stress now, enjoy your life"
"Easy for you to say, you've got a cruising ride ahead with all the fame you've got"
I felt Hussain stiffen beside me, he gripped my hand and turned me to look at him.
"Just stop okay, just having some fame and money doesn't mean I've got a damn future ready for me. I've got more dreams and I want to be somewhere too. You are too judgmental about me and I don't know what your problem is. Yeah Alhamdulillah we are famous young lads but only to make others laugh, our motivation is to bring a tad of happiness in someone's life, we are not about the fame, money or power. We are all normal human beings with passions and hopes just like you. We struggle in life too and we have ups and downs as well. You refer to us like we are animals that get anything we want. We are for one not stuck ups and neither do we "want" girls to chase after us; in no way or form had I followed you that night for you to chase me back, I just wanted to get to know you. I'm sorry if that was such a big mistake I made, but right now I can't stand here listen to your accusations when you have no idea of who we are and we actually want. Ache aur buri k pechaan nai tumhe toh janho, pehchan na seekho, har insaan bura nai hota duniya main aur insaan ko janhe se pehle kuch ulta bolne se pehle sonch liya karo!"
I swallowed inside while he spoke and jumped back as my phone rang.
I rummaged through my bag to take it out.
After taking it out I turned my gaze towards the scenery, I was aware Hussain was looking at me and I could see he seemed pretty angry and was waiting for a response. To be honest this phone call was on the correct moment as right now at this very moment I was left speechless.
