Hussyan.

"Sir your meeting will start in 30 minutes." My secretary informs me. I nodded through the glass door that separates us. I stood up and take the files with me. I walk out of my office, then from the building. I get in my car and drove toward the restaurant. 

It takes me 40 minutes to get there and there was a lot of traffic on road that take my time. When I reach there, I saw my clients already there waiting for me. I park the car in park and get out. I walk in the restaurant and shake my head with clients before we start the meeting.

"It is nice meeting you." My clients say with a smile. I nodded and stood up as well. We shake hands and walk out together. 

"Thank you for doing business with Sheikh's" I say and nodded the last time before turning around but stop when something capture my attention. I look closely and saw Arsalan sitting in a shop by window. I look and saw his favourite Ice cream shop. I walk toward the door and open it. I look at my right where Arsalan was sitting with someone. It was a woman with hijab and another little boy sitting with them.

"Arsalan!" I walk toward them but stop and my eyes widened on what I saw. No, this couldn't be happening. I may be seeing a dream.

There my best friend is sitting with my son. Sorry ex-best friend. A friend that betrayed me, break my trust and take my love away from me. I don't know what to do or what should I say. A part of my want to ask her how is she and a part of me was angry for leaving me. I still had a hard time to believe that she is the person that my love is not with me here. I just want a proof that whatever I am thinking is wrong.

"Daddy." A light shake on my hand break me from my thoughts. I look down and glared at Arsalan before looking at Sila. 

"What are you doing here?" I yelled at her. She looks at me shocked, but quickly covers herself and look at Arsalan. I pushed him behind me and stood in front of her. She looks up at me and stood up from the chair she was sitting.

"I am here to meet Arsalan." Her voice was still so soft like it was before we parted away. I almost forget everything but then everything comes in my mind.

"Don't you dare to meet him ever again." I hissed in anger but she looks unaffected. I look at her right and saw her nephew Asad standing next to her. I look at his clothes, then at Arsalan. I blame myself for getting his admission in the same school as him.

"Why? Why can't I meet him? Is it because he is your son? Don't ever forget Mehwish give me right to meet him as well." She reminds me what promise Mehwish took from me last time before I leave her.

"Everything is finished when she leaves me. All promises and rights. I am warning you last time Sila. Stop all this and for Allah sake just leave me alone. Get out from our lives, no one needs you here." I shouted and I know that everyone in this shop are looking at us but I don't care right now.

When she didn't say anything, I turned around and started to walk away, but stop when I feel Arsalan wasn't following me. He looks at me with watery eye and shake his head before walking toward Sila. She smiles slightly at him and kneel down.

"Go with Daddy." She says politely but he refused to come with me. She sighs and leaned forward to hug him. I swallow as I saw tears rolled down to her face. I fight myself to stay back and didn't show any emotions. I saw as she says something in his ear and pulled back. 

"Promise?" He asked her. She smile and nodded. Arsalan hug her last time before turning and running past me to the door. I looked at her last time before walking away. With every step I feel my heart getting heavy and my throats getting close. I feel like someone is putting pressure on my heart to beat it heavily.
