Dedicated to my lovely friend bhatiageeta :))
Love you dear,for Allah SWT's sake.
May Allah keep you in cheerful and high spirits always...Aameen!
The city was bustling with weekend parties & celebrations ,joy & enthusiasm
taking over the gloomy,weary atmosphere of working days! Saturday night brought
in its wake relaxation & a much needed break from the ever busy schedule for
working folks. Youngsters enjoyed at their favourite hangout spots,while
kids took pleasure in the realization of having no school the next day ...!!!
Liveliness and excitement oozed greatly through different parts of the metropolitan
city!!
Standing by the doors of the balcony in his room,Afzal watched the enthusiastically
bustling city,with a blank expression on his face.Leaning against the doorframe
he was holding his cellphone in his hands ,waiting for his best friend to answer his
call.
The playful night breeze was teasing the silky strands of his hair making them
fall on his forehead. He frowned in response,raking a hand through his messy hair
to straighten them.But the wind very slyly messed it again!!! His sharp hazel eyes
glared at the mischievous wind that attempted to annoy him deliberately!
Afzal didn't like anyone messing with his hair,...his wife was an exception though..
In fact he loved the way she caressed his silky hair ...her touch was soothing for his
mind & comforting for his heart..!!!
"Assalamualaikum", Afzal greeted his friend in a gentle tone as he received
the call.
" Alhamdulillah m good,how are you doing Fais?" He questioned ,and turned
to walk back in as the night breeze showed no signs of ceasing to bother him!!!
He paced the room,conversing with his best friend ,talking & sharing his thoughts
& recent life events.
"So you guys are going on a date tonight?" Afzal questioned ,in a slightly teasing
tone.
His lips twitched into a gorgeous smile as his best friend asked him something
in return....something about someone special.....
Undoubtedly Zaara....!!!!
"Alhamdulillah she is fine....busy in the kitchen right now!!" The latter part was
stated in a grumpy,irritated manner!!!!
That was basically the reason for his fallen mood!
Although Zaara,had given him enough time when he returned from work she
had responsibilities to fulfill too....for she wasn't just a wife,but a daughter in law
of the house as well......!!! He knew that but .......no matter how much time he spent
with his beloved it always seemed short ....he could never have enough of staring
at that beautiful face,of talking to her & listening to her talk...or even sitting
in silence with her.....Just her presence was enough to calm his spirits but now
that he was used to being close to her it bothered him whenever she was away..!!!
And today ,fortunately or unfortunately ,it was one of those days when he had
returned early from work....!!! Only to get more irritated & grumpy ...!!!!
"No Fais,I m not angry..",he laughed slightly ,scratching the back of his neck,
as he paced the room," It's just that....i am bored being alone in the room for a long
time now.."
Faisal gave some teasing reply which made his friend smile wider,the tips of his
ears turning a slight shade of pink!!
"Go get ready for your date.I already took a lot of your time.Bhabi might be
waiting." Afzal teased back ,the smile never leaving his face.
