Zayn's POV
Management has given us two months of work. Which means Louis has gone to America to see Lauren. Which means I don't have to tell Lakshmi I cheated on her. I called Lorena and told her we couldn't see each other anymore. Everything was sorted and I had something very important to ask Lakshmi.
"Doyouwannameetmyfamily?", I blurted out. She just looked up and back down at her drawing.
"Zayn try that again slower and louder", she said.
"Would you like to meet my parents?", I asked her again. She put her pencil down and looked at me.
"Yes now please leave I'm not in a good mood", she warned. I sat down on the chair next to her.
"What's up?", I asked. She looked really frustrated.
"My imagination isn't working, I started this but I can't continue it", I looked at the picture. It was the outline of a little girl running through a street.
"Well draw something else then", I suggested. She smirked.
"What like you?", she said sarcastically.
"If you want", I replied. She looked at me confused.
"Do you really want to? You'll be there for at least two hours", she warned.
"Sure and it'd be a nice present for my family if you'd be willing to part with it", I explained. She thought about it for a minute and nodded.
"But instead of a picture of you do you have one of your whole family?", she asked me. I got my phone out and showed her a picture. She took the phone and started drawing. Well I guessed I would have to use the home phone for the rest of the day. I went to call my mum to say we'll be coming over on the weekend.
THE WEEKEND
The car ride so far has been silent. Lakshmi has been staring out the window looking like she's got a life or death decision to make.
"You'll be fine, my mum already loves you", I said hoping to make her feel better.
"No she loved what you told her, which is probably an exaggeration and also what if she doesn't approve of my way of living or something", I sighed.
"Listen to me, who wouldn't love you? Your kind, beautiful, funny everyone loves being around you. And what happened to the Lakshmi who didn't care what anyone thought of her?", I asked trying to lighten the mood. Obviously not succeeding.
"Well I care what your mum thinks of me", she said and turned back to the window. I went back to looking at the road.
When we arrived at the house my mum opened it. She has obviously been watching waiting for us to arrive.
"Hey sweetheart", she said to Lakshmi.
"Hi Mrs Malik", Lakshmi said shyly. My mum ushered us in.
"Call me Trisha sweetie", my mum said and Lakshmi smiled at her. My sisters came down the stairs.
"Lakshmi this is Waliya, Doniya and Safaa", I introduced them.
"Hey we've heard lots about you Zayn talks about you all the time", Safaa says and Lakshmi blushes. My eldest sister Doniya pushes past the rest and greets Lakshmi.
"I love what your wearing we definitely have to go shopping together tomorrow", she says. Lakshmi nods and smiles hugely.
"Absolutely I could never say no to a shopping trip", Lakshmi replies. My mum sends us all to the table to eat dinner.
