Fawad POV

"Seher, I'm going" I shouted.

"Wait...coming" she yelled back. Within two minutes she was standing right in front of me.

"Seher, how many times should I tell you to not to run??" I asked.

"More than hundred times" she giggled.

"You're mad!!" I giggled

"It was bound to happen" she smirked.

"Mrs.Fawad" I said in a challenging tone.

"Yes, Mr.Fawad?" She said sweetly.

"You'll never change" I said smiling.

"Yes. Wait. Do you want me to change??" She asked tapping her foot.

"Never" I said pinching her nose. She laughed. "Okay, now I've to go...but yes please be ready on time." I said and got in my car.

"Don't worry. I will. Assalamualaikum" she said waving her hand.

"Walekumasalam" I replied waving her back.

This has become a habit from two weeks. I leave for office and she walks me out. I know I've been a jerk towards her but that doesn't mean that I don't care about her. Of course I do but I don't feel it's necessary to show unless I have to.

In this short span of time, she has filled my life my happiness and light, I remember how I use to ignore her but she has always stood beside me and did her duty well. I must say she's a very strong girl. She has gone through so much but still she doesn't show an inch of her pain.

From the bottom of my heart, I want to erase all her pain and give all the happiness of the world. I want to see her, smile, always. I'm still not in love with her, this I know, because I'm still standing at some point of my life. But I know this much, that I'm more attached to her now.

When I come back home, I want to see her first. When I wake up, I want to see her. When I go back to sleep, I want her beside me. When I sit to eat, I want her to serve me and eat with me. When I leave for office, I want her to see her and then leave. And the list go on and on and on...

I know, I know...you all must be thinking that I'm totally smitten by her, which in real I am. My whole day doesn't start without her. When I remember, last night, my face automatically lit up with a smile. Last night I was so close to kiss her, if that stupid call wouldn't have disturbed us. I'm still angry with my assistant.

One of the guards came and opened my door. I got out of my car, as the other guard greeted me and opened the main door of the office.

"Saba" I called my appointment manager.

"Good Morning, Sir" she greets walking beside me.

"Cancel all my meetings and appointments after five" I order.

"Sure Sir, and when do I reschedule it for?" She asked.

"You know the answer well enough" I said and stepped inside my private elevator.

Today I'm taking Seher for shopping. We haven't gone for shopping since long time. And when I told her my plan, her big smile and the glitter in her eyes calmed me. I was happy to see her happy. Sometimes I think that why I can't love her or fell in Love with her and on the other second, I dismiss the thought as an illusion.

There was a ding sound indicating I've reached my floor.

"Good Morning, Sir" my assistant, Aayat greeted me

"Morning" I nodded and she gave me the whole schedule of today till five. According to me, today I was doing half time but after seeing the workload, my thought changed. I sighed and got ready for the work.

I was so engrossed in my work that I completely lost track of the time. I would have completely forgotten if Seher wouldn't have called me.

"Look, I said I'm really sorry. I'm on my way just give me ten more minutes" I said getting in my private elevator.

"No, you don't have to." She replied

"Please don't be mad at me" I requested

"I'm not!!"

"I said na I'm coming in five more minutes" I said pressing the gas pedal and getting lost on the streets.

"Hey, I'm telling you na, that I'm not angry we'll go some other day" she said.

"No no...we'll go today only." I replied taking a right turn.

"How should I explain myself Fawad, I'm really not angry!!"

"Okayyy... I understand you are not angry with me but I'll be angry with you if you won't come down within five minutes" I said pressing the horn loudly.

"Oh My--" she came to the balcony and was shocked to see me while I just held my ears.

"I'm really sorry" I said.

"You've gone mad" she said and hung up.

After waiting for few more minutes, she came down.

"Ever heard of this line 'Don't talk while driving'??" She asked in a serious tone.

"Sorryy" I again said

"Stop saying sorry" now she was irritated.

"Okayy"

"Fawad, I'm not angry. Infact, I called you that time, just to tell you that carry on with your work, we'll go on weekend" she said

"But every girl says like that when she's angry" I shrugged.

"And how many girls you know??" She asked. I stiffened abit. I don't like where this is going.

"Many" I said and her face turned into a shock.

"You should look at your face!!" I said laughing.

"Say Wallah" she said

"I was kidding" I said honestly.

"Good" she gave me a good glare and then she sat down in the car.

I scratched the back of my head, and got in the car. Within seconds, I was zooming past everything.

After driving for half an hour we finally reached the mall. I stopped the car in front of the main entrance and told her to go in and I'll join her after parking my car. Finally after fifteen minutes of searching, I found a place to park and I didn't wasted a second also to park.

After parking my car, I was walking towards the mall entrance when I bumped into someone and all the belongings fell down on the floor.

"I'm so sorry" I said and removed my shades.

"I'm sorry" she also said at the same time.

"Sarah?"

"Faddy?"
