"Don't you think you are doing wrong with his gifts?",

Marwa asked me while setting the table for Garage sale;

"No,
I think it is the best I could with his gifts!",

I said with a shrug  pretending like his gifts mean nothing to me and continued to keep the tray of cookies on the table;

"He had some feelings while choosing those gifts and then sending it you, 

Don't you think he would be hurt when he gets to know that you are selling his given things in a garage sale...,

Hmmm",

Marwa stopped working and sat on the table while crossing her arms over her chest with a frown look. 

"Marwa,

If you are interested in work then you are most welcome but if you are here just for a chat then I'm sorry because I have tons of other things to do",

I said while ignoring the look on her face, Marwa sighed and started to help me to set the table;

"Marwa bring the frames from my room!",

I asked her to bring the frames because I had to message the guy next balcony; So, as she left I hurriedly took the phone and typed the message;

Good morning,
How are you feeling today?
I hope you have forgiven me.
If you need anything just call me.

Take care!

I sent the message and waited for his reply but it did not come,

I hope he's fine because yesterday he was having a high fever and it really scared me!

I looked up at his room's window and wishing to see him with a smile meanwhile, Marwa came and we both got back to work. 

Mom was happy that we organized it for charity and the best part was that all the stuff sold out but at the end, we had few frames remaining which I thought to keep it for myself. So, I started to close the sale because even Marwa was tired from whole day work and she left beside it was getting dark, no doubt without her help it wasn't possible for me to do. 

I took the frames and turned to leave meanwhile someone came;

"I heard that here is a garage sale,

Is that true?",

Say's the guy with his deep voice in a British accent, I did not want to give these last two frames because I thought to give it to the fighter as a gift. So, without looking back I answered;

"Sorry, 

You came late,
all of our items are sold,
we don't have anything left!",

I started to walk but he interrupted;

"What about these ones that you are holding in your hand,

Hmm!",

I hold them strongly and said with a bitterness;

"No,
These are not for sale!",

"Is it special or it is for someone special?
Hmm",

He hummed and I turned with anger but remained stunned by the guy standing in front of me;

"Jadlaan!",

I said abruptly;

"Yes,
My dear Mayaan, it's me Jadlaan!",
