Sila.
"Assalam-o-Alaikum." I give my Salam as I saw my family. Mom smile with teary eyes. My brother Qamar, my sister Haniya and sitting beside her and my sister-in-law Afrah were standing behind them with my 5 year old nephew Asad.
"Walaikum Assalam Sila. How are you?" Mom asked. I mentally sigh, look at everyone.
"I am fine, Mom. How are you guys there? Are you taking care of your health?" I asked her worriedly. She chuckle lightly and nodded. I look at my brother and saw his eyes also teary. I saw as his wife squeeze his shoulder.
"We all are fine here. How are you there? We miss you a lot." My brother says quietly looking down. My heart break look at the sad faces of everyone there, but I can't do anything.
"I miss you all too."
"How everything is going there?" Bhabhi asked quickly when Mom was about to complain and tell me to come back. This happen, everything we talk.
"Everything is going perfect. My studies are completed and now I am looking for a job."
"Why don't you come back here and find a job here?" Qamar Bhai suggest. I look toward Mom, but she was looking at me blankly. I look up and saw Afrah Bhabhi nodding me.
"Okay. I will be back soon." As I say Mom and Bhai smile widely. I chuckle when they all started to plan things. After a few minutes they finally calm down and tell me what is going on there. My nephew is happy in his school and my elder sister get a promotion in her office while my brother is happy in his life. We hung up after promising to meet soon.
I sigh heavily and leaned back on my rolling chair. I close my eyes and think of how suddenly my life changed in these 2 years. Losing my two best friends, find out the truth and moving away to save my family. I can't even think that those peoples could do all this with me. I always thought they were our family members, but not. Now If I move back and face my past again, I wouldn't be able to keep things to myself. If I saw any of them there then I may lose my control and tell whatever happened that day. I just pray that I never meet Hussyan and he will be saved from everything. I still couldn't take him out of my heart. He is the only reason I leave my home. I miss him and Arsalan. Arsalan is like my son after Mehwish died. I couldn't help but think about the memories we all spent together.
"Sila! Help me please." Hussyan yelled at me, but I just ignore him again."
What the hell Hussyan." I yelled back when he suddenly snatch my book from me. He take a step back and crossed his arms in front.
"If you want your book back then help me." He say and turned around to walk in his huge walk-in closet and I follow him in there. This guy is really rich.
"How about this?" He asked, holding his new suit. I smirked at his nervous look.
"Relax Syan. You are not going to meet her parents for your marriage. You are going on a study date with her." I say rolling my eyes and sit on a stool. He look at me with a glare, but I didn't miss the pink color on his cheeks.
"It is not date. We are going to discuss about the project." He mumble turning around to look for something else.
"Liar! We all know you are going on date." A voice cut me off. We turn to look and saw Ahmed standing at the door with a smirk on his face.
"Shut up both of you. I am saying this last time. I am not going on date. Why you guys even here. Get out." Hussyan glare at Ahmed but he didn't care and stand on the wall beside the door.
"Accept it Bhai. You are going on a date with your girlfriend who you love unconditionally" Ahmed say and we saw Hussyan face turning bright red. Hussyan quickly recovers himself and turned to his little brother. Ahmed swallows when he saw Hussyan taking a step toward him and make a run with Hussyan after him. I follow them out and chuckle when I saw Ahmed running down on the stairs laughing.
I shake my head and went back in Hussyan room. I walk into his closet and take out a pair of dark jeans and light gray button shirt with a black jacket. I know Mehwish and once she told me that she like a button shirt on Hussyan. Mehwish and I become friends when she joined our school last year. I introduce her to Hussyan and soon they also become good friends. Now they both had feelings for each other and didn't know about it. I had seen it the way they look at each other, but the problem is that they never confess it. Now, as a best friend I am trying to get them together because I had never seen Hussyan getting attached to anyone before, not even with me.
A few days ago I heard Hussyan parents talking about his marriage with his cousin who is greedy for money and he didn't even like her. In his family, everyone get married at age of 18-20 and Hussyan is turning 18 next month when his parents break this news to him. I know if Hussyan marry of his parent choice he will never be happy and I can't see him unhappy. That is why I am trying so they both could confess their love and married soon. I know if Hussyan tell his parents after they both get together then his parents can't do anything and let them marry.
"Sila?" A shake on my shoulder break me from my thoughts. I turned around and saw Hussyan and Maham his little sister who is also my best friend looking at me confused. I shake my head and smile at Hussyan giving him his clothes that he had to wear. He smiled widely and went to change. Maham glared at me and dragged me in her room that is 2 doors away from Hussyan.
"Why are you doing all this Sila?" Maham asked me. I sigh and walk toward the huge window of her room.
"Doing what?" I asked her, but I know what she is talking about. I heard her footsteps coming and I feel her standing beside me but still I couldn't look in her eyes. I hate to see the pleading look in her eyes.
"Don't act innocent to me. You know what I am talking about why you can't just tell him about your feelings for him? I know he would never be happy with someone, but you." She says softly. I smile bitterly and shake my head.
"Maham, I can't do this. You know, if I tell him, then he would never see me again. He will hate me. He will never be happy with me, but only with Mehwish. My love is only is only one sided, but they both love each other." I told her and look at her and saw sadness in her eyes. She sigh and looks out of the window.
"You are doing is wrong. You are making a big mistake. I am telling you Sila you will regret it in the future." I smile and shake my head.
"No, I wouldn't. They are made for each other. Once they will get married, then I will also move on in my life." I say and look toward the front door when it's open. We saw as Hussyan step out and jogged toward his new Mercedes. He gets inside and soon he drove away.
"I wish you will get someone better than my brother."
"No one can ever take his place in my life. No one." I whisper as I close my eyes and saw the Hussyan smiling face.
I open my eyes and look at the side of my desk where I keep Hussyan, Mehwish and Arsalan photo. I smile and pick it up. I slowly run my fingers on the Hussyan smiling face. I feel guilty when I saw Mehwish.
"I am sorry Mehwish I couldn't keep my promise. I know you see everything that happened and you know I didn't do anything. I wish he also believe me. I am sorry for everything please forgive me."
