Hussyan.

"Arsalan!" I call him as I grabbed my car keys and my phone. I walk downstairs and soon I heard him coming down with Sila. I don't know what they were doing in his room this long, but I know whatever it is I am going to ask Arsalan about it once she left tonight.

"Dad!" I look back and open my arms in time just when Arsalan jump toward me. I chuckle and kissed his forehead before looking up and my smile vanished when I saw her looking at us. Her eyes were a little red and look like she cried. But I don't care if she is upset or unhappy. I just want to see my son happy and he is happy when she is with him but not for long. Soon I will know about truth and then get away from her because I know she is guilty, but I need prove that she had done all that. 

"Let's go." I turned around and walk toward the front door with Arsalan still in my arms. I open the door of my car and make him sit on his seat before buckling him up.

"Y-you guys go. I will follow you." I heard Sila says when I open the driving seat door to sit but stop when I heard Arsalan. 

"Silly, I want to go with you." He whined struggling to get out of his seat but stop when I glared at him. I look at Sila but she was looking down. I sigh heavily and walk back toward her. I know she wouldn't sit without my permission. I open the door of the passenger seat and waited for her to sit. When she did I close the door and walk back toward the driving seat and drove away.

"You have to stay with Arsalan all time and then take him home. You have to take care of him until I get back home tonight." I order Sila after a few minutes of silence. I saw her nodding, then concentrate on the road. 

"Dad didn't I go to Dada house today?" Arsalan asked me. I look at him in the rear - view mirror and shake my head with a sigh.

"Sorry Champ but from today, you will go straight home from school. We will go to meet them on weekends. Okay?" I say softly, making him nod. I smile and look at Sila to see her nervous. I wanted to ask her about it, but I decide not to. I don't want to know what is bothering her. I don't care about her.

"I... I was thinking to take Arsalan and Asad at the park this weekend." Sila told me but I shake my head in no.

"You can't take him anywhere without my permission not that I am going to give you. He spent his weekend with MY family not YOURS." I say, emphasizing the word my and yours. She looks hurt by my statement, but I forced myself not to comfort her.

"Dad, I want to go park with them. I saw Dada and everyone at weekends, but this time I want to go park." He whined causing me to look at him shock. He never complain to go on my parent's house before then why today? Sila really starts controlling his brain.

"No, you are not going at the park with them. You will come with me to Dada house." I told him sternly and sigh when he look upset. I was about to sorry him when Sila cut me. 

"What the hell is your problem? Why can't you let him come with me? It is not I am going to take him from you why can't you trust me?"Sila started to yell at me. I look at her shock and stop the car in the middle.

"I trusted you before and you broke it. I am not going to risk my son's life again. I would rather keep him at home, then sending him with you at the park." I yelled back not controlling my anger. She started an argument again that she didn't do anything but I know she did. We went back and forth to insult each other, but stop when we heard an angry voice. 

"SHUT UP!" Arsalan yelled from backseat making us quiet. I look back and sigh when I saw his hands on his ears with his face down. Sila and I look at each other then at him. He glared at us then shake his head.

"Dad, Sili you both are not kids anymore that you act like. I am the kid here and I have right to whine and fight for things. Now, Dad start the car and Sili quiet." Arsalan order us making us nervous. I nodded quickly and started the car again, mumbling an apology. Sometimes I feel like he is my Dad. 

After I drop them off at school and again the argument with Sila about her plan on a weekend, I drive to my office. I park my car in private parking and get out. I nodded as I past the receptionist and walk straight in elevator. When I was on my floor I get out and walk in my office room. I sit on my chair and sigh heavily and get ready to start my day.

When the afternoon comes I had an important meeting so I sent Ahmed to pick Sila and Arsalan from school and drop them at home. I also inform Sila about it. I just hope Ahmed didn't say or do anything stupid or I will kill him.

Sila.

I sigh heavily and stood up from my seat. I saw as the kids start coming out of their classroom. I smile when I saw Arsalan and Asad coming out of their class holding each other shoulder and playfully punching each other. I chuckle when Arsalan tripped him and straddle him. I walk over them and pulled Arsalan to make him stand. Asad stood up and brush the dust from his clothes and smile up at me before wrapping his small arms around me. I chuckle and bend down to pick him up. I smile at Arsalan and hold my hand out for him. He grabbed it and we all walk toward the front of the school. I put Asad down when I saw Afrah Bhabhi parking her car. 

"It is time for you to go home. Be a good boy and don't make your Mom angry. I will see you tonight." I say kissed his forehead and smile when he nodded quickly. I look up and saw Afrah Bhabhi coming toward us with a smile.

"Assalam-o-Alaikum Bhabhi." I give my Salam. She smile and give her Salam back. She talk to Arsalan a bit and he hide behind me. He is shy around people he didn't know much.

"How everything is going? Is he treating you right? Did he do anything to make you sad?" She asked worriedly. I shake my head with a chuckle and she sigh in relief. 

"Everything is going good. Yes, he is treating me right." Which is a lie. "No, he didn't do anything to make me sad." But he did hurt me with his behaviour. I sigh mentally and shake my head thinking I can't tell her all this. She had her own problems to deal with.

"Good, if he ever does anything to make you sad then I will make him pay for it." She says seriously making me laugh. I look down and saw Arsalan and Asad running around us. Our head snapped back when we heard a loud horn. I look at the black car in which Hussyan drop us. It was Ahmed. He looked changed from the last time I saw him. I do chat with him and Maham on the internet, but I didn't see him in real in a long time. 

"Sila Arif are you planning to meet me or not?" Ahmed asked with fake anger. I rolled my eyes at him making him pout. He maybe changes by his looks but other than that he is still same. 

"I didn't want to." I mumble hoping he wouldn't hear me, but he did as he gasped loudly causing everyone to look at us. I glared at him, but he just shrugged.

"You didn't want to meet your friend? That friend who always tried to tease you. That friend who you fight all the time." He say loudly and shake his head with a fake disappointment. I sigh mentally thinking he would never change.

"No, because a friend like you didn't leave me easily. You are like glue." I told him what I used to tell him 2 years ago. He smirked and nodded before patting his back. 

"I know what I am but I had never shown my importance of it before." He says wiping a fake tear.

"Are you guys done?" We heard Bhabhi voice. We look at each other and nodded with a smirk. She sigh in relief and take Asad with her after promising to meet tonight at home. I don't know how I will be able to get home tonight. I told Bhabhi that maybe Hussyan would drop me off, but I know he wouldn't.

"So, my prince charming where should I take you?" Ahmed bowed in front of Arsalan making him giggle. I watch in surprise as Arsalan patter Ahmed head and held his head high. 

"To Home."
