One year later
Third person's POV
Its been a year since that incident Ayla and Ahsan stopped seeing each other technically Ayla stopped seeing him. Ahsan however used to go to her house even after proposing her just to convince her how much she means to him, that he can't live without her, his life is meaning less without her .
He then told her not to break the friendship at least and so she agreed but did keep her distance from then on .
Sounds cliché but Ahsan did put a camp next to her house so that he could be near her as much as possible that didn't work well either.
They've moved back to Pakistan and currently working together on different crime scenes but its always been awkward between the two in one way or another.

Ayla's POV
I was going rummaging through my bag and walking out of Gloria jeans when I bumped into someone.
"Ouch!"
"Ouch"
I rubbed my forehead to ease the pain and looked up to see none other than Mr. Ahsan himself.
We stared at each other for like an eternity.
why do I every time look into his eyes I feel like an eternity has passed? And like why do I not wanna break the gaze?
I ask my subconscious.
What felt like years I decided to break the gaze and cleared my throat.
" I'm sorry "
" I'm sorry "
We both blurted out at the same time and started laughing .
"Um- coffee? ", he asks nervously
"Yeah sure"
.
.
.
.
.
"I better get going now "
"Ayla!wait "
I turned around "yes?"
" I know this is insane of what I'm about to ask and its not even fair to you but I need your help ", he says scratching the back of his head.
"What kind of help? ",my eyebrows frown in confusion
" I uh- I need you to come with me to visit my parents ", he looks at me with eager eyes .
"Ahsan I would love to but I can't I'm sorry "
" Ayla please, I wouldn't have asked you to do this if it wasn't important "
"My parents they want me to get married to my cousin and you know I can't it won't be fair with her too as I don't love her .....You know ” he said while scratching the back of his head .
“ Ahsan I really can't do that I'm sorry I really am. I wish I could help you in this but its just that ...its just ...just find someone else to do this or tell them the truth”.
“ I can't do that to my parents especially my mum knowing the fact that she's been through two heart attacks.... I just can't see her be in pain again I won't be able to live with the fact that it was me who caused her loss of life. I can't lie ....”
“Um- I - I don't know what to say anymore... I see you've made a decision I - ” he stopped me there without completing took long strides towards me and took my hands in his, his grip so gentle but tight at the same time as if I were to flee.
He looked me in the eye and spoke,“Ayla just this once do this not for me but for her. I promise its going to be a one week stay and I won't let it take far to our marriage or anything for that matter. I promise. We won't get married its just going to be an act that we'll put up for one week and once we return I'll figures something out. I won't bother you after that.”
“Okay”, I agreed
What? I agreed? Like I actually agreed?
Well that's what the sudden proximity with him does to me . Ughhh!! There's no backing down now. Bravo Ayla!
He grinned at me and hugged me so tightly that I couldn't breathe “ I -I can't breathe ”, I choked
“oh sorry ..
.
.thank you thank you so much ”.
I smiled back at him.
