The essence of falling in love is to see the inner beauty!

SHUMAYLL 

I wanted to tell them it was her 

she was the one i was mad and crazy for 

but i kept shut 

the look on her face when abba asked me about who 'MY' girl was. well made me decide to not tell anyone 

lets just leave it 

"Uh........ no one, maybe I am willing to find her but not now, I guess i am waiting for the right one" I said smiling slightly at Abba and ammi 

they stared at me for a moment before breaking into laughter

all of them 

every one of them except Iqra 

she gave me a small smile and i winked back 

pitches of pink spread on her cheek and i chuckled turning towards bhabhi only to see her staring at me with a smirk 

am i in trouble?

I looked away and stood up 

"I will be back" I said and began walking towards the kitchen 

halfway, the whole house went black 

what the hell!?!

I turned around and my feet hit the table corners and i winced in pain 

Aiiissshhh!!!!!!!

"The power went off- something with the breaker?" called out abba and Shaheer bhai disagreed and i saw his phones light go on 

oh yeah 

phone light 

I took out my phone and switched on the light 

with it, i made my way upstairs, to the terrace to check the meter box, Bhai following me close behind

"Whats wrong with it?" asked bhai and i shook my head

"I think its the whole city without power or something" i muttered and he nodded

"Shall we fire up the generator or we stay with the candles and all?" asked bhai and i smirked

"Tell them the generator is out of order ATM" i winked and he chuckled

We walked downstairs and i took two candles from the hallway that mom kept for display 

"Guys, good news, its not the breaker, bad news, generator out of order" said Shaheer bhai and everyone groaned

"So candles it is" said Fatima aunt and i nodded

not like anyone can see it anyway 

then it hit me, the kids!

"Bhabhi where is Sohayll?" i asked bhabhi as i walked towards her 

I tumbled on something and fell to the floor, the soft rug digging into my elbows 

great 

i set up and rubbed my elbows 

i turned and took a lighter from my pocket and lighted the candle infront of bhabhi 

hazel eyes stared back at me
