That Is Where My Heart Resides.

He knows what I don't even know about myself.

He kept his eyes on the road and didn't ask again about what happened and it was neither me who was just going to let the cat out of the bag.I don't know why was he caring about whatsoever happened with me.I was happy with Omer,because I guess my parents had to do this so I just had to accept the truth,just like engulfing a bitter pill just for betterment of thy self.

And then all of a sudden I just without thinking decided to break the silence between us,afterall it was making me feel quite awkward and at the same time afraid of what will be happening next.Will he just tell my mother about all what happened?No I don't want to trouble Ammi about any of such cases.Or will he just take me to his home and then ask me to spill  everything out,I can't tell him,I'll starve to death but not spill anything out.

"Where are we going?", I asked desperately,my voice starting to sound a little squeaky but I tried to hold on with courage.

"Does that matter to you?", he asked without a break and his voice had no calm in itself that was there before everytime he talked to me,it was just lost its edge.

"Please don't tell Ammi--" I pleaded trying to hold my sobs and the tears back to the place where they belonged.

"Why Mahoor,she'd be quite happy to hear that what fun she was just having with his loving husband Omer?", he snapped back,his every word was dripping with sarcasm,he never was like that and I hate to admit that I miss his calm and usual tone which he used whenever he used to talk.

"It was just me who was making him angry otherwise he is the best a woman could ask for---", I snapped back trying to protect someone who is not even worthy of being a husband,a true and faithful husband.

"All these lies can confront only your family Mahoor not me,I know what's happening between you two,and I will never miss the opportunity of explaining all this to your mother,why do you suffer all this so easily,why do you just like to lie to yourself,why do you just like to hurt your own self?", he said getting a bit snarky,scrunching his nose.

I bit my lower lip fighting the  urge to smooth things over.I just felt stupid because telling him that I do enjoy being with him would be like admitting that I let my guard down.That I've allowed him to get too close for comfort.

"So if you don't want me to tell all of what happened to your family then just explain that freaking thing that happened there,and I swear and promise not to tell anyone,trust me", he replied his voice turning a bit softer from before.

I don't know why but I trust him more than anyone else,but to show it would be a worse decision.

"How can I trust you of not telling anything to my...family", I replied hardly showing him my feelings,a small grimace growing on my face.

"Mahoor I know that you trust me more than anyone else", he said smilingly half-heartedly.

"I didn't said I do?", I snarled,rolling my eyes.

"I can see you inside out,can reach your heart,so don't ever lie to me,and don't just try to change the topic and just come on the deal I've asked you about", he muttered leaving me astounded.

"There was nothing serious about all this but he was just forcing me into buying that sleeveless dress for his friend's wedding", I replied looking through the car window.

"Are you pretty sure about that?", he asked me once again in his sarcastic tone.

"We have made a deal right so why would I just lie to you?", I replied,my heart almost dying and scared about him knowing.

"Yes ofcourse", he smirked,it was just hanging of his lips.

Sweat just rolled all over my body and then my cheeks burned so hard that I hate to admit he would find that as blushing,and then I just rubbed my hands constantly trying to mask my emotions,but what if he just finds out?

"Alright fine,I knew you would do this", he said with a small grim growing on his face.

"What?", I replied acting innocent as much as I could but it was of no use.

He already knew.
