"Ooohhh.....come on come on think of something Anum", she was snapping her fingers and pacing around her not so huge living room. "Think think think thi.....ahhh haaaa!!!! got it." with that she jumped up and down and did a victory dance. "I'm not going on a date with youuu", she sang in a sing song voice. "what if this doesn't work" , she thought to herself but then shrugged and thought to herself that she won't go by hook or by crook. She glanced at the watch hanging in all its glory on her left side, it was indeed a beautiful watch made with real wood it was a gift she got from her mother on her 11th birthday a day full of joy and sorrow for her. Well how sorrow lets just say its a story for some other day. But when ever she looked at it, all the memories would come back flashing in her mind. She would always question herself as to why is she keeping it here or why doesn't she keep it away from her sight. But deep down she knew she couldn't do so as its the only thing left of her family to her and she wants it to be near her to feel that they are near her too.
"Ding dong", the sound of the door bell brought her out of her trance and she face palmed herself as she was to look at the time and not go in a trance like every other time. She sighed deeply and adjusted her clothes and hair.
"Ding dong", the bell rang again...."Ugghh cominnng"she said with frustration. She opened the door and in came face to face with Sohail aka Mr.Evil. They both looked into each other's eyes the black verses brown, a battle going on between the two none of them wanted to look away as if, totally lost in each other's eyes. Anum tried to check him out and regretted doing so as he was looking devilishly handsome with white shirt and blue jeans and his hair jelled to the back perfectly as always. This was the first time she was seeing him in his normal attire, other than suits. Meanwhile Sohail also did not waste this opportunity...he was as always mesmerized by her beauty just like now with her hair falling down up to her back and the flicks of her hair cascading her angelic face. It was the first time he saw her with untied hair it was not that she never let her hair down at work she did but they were always tied in some fashion but this was the first time they were completely untied. He then looked at her dressing...she was wearing a black kurti with some beautiful work done on it on the chest region ( a loose collarless Shirt) up to her knees and matching pajama. He then remembered from all this that he were to take her to dinner more like a date which made him come back to reality,"Uh- Anum why aren't you dressed?"
"uh-hun? what do you mean I'm not dressed?? I am dressed", she answered playing dumb. Hearing this a never ending smirk plastered on Sohail's face and he raised his right brow at her, Anum got the message as to why he was smirking and she blushed slightly,"pervert", she murmured. "You said something love?....", he bent a little to reach her level their faces were inches away now...noticing the proximity Anum backed away.
"I meant that why aren't you ready...we need to get going and here you are not ready"he said with his right hand in the air and left hand in his jeans pocket. "I'm not going anywhere with you", Anum simply stated. "Why?"he asked. "B-because I don't want to and I'm tired so I'm not going any where other than staying at home and having a good sound sleep", she spoke confidently.
'Well if that's the case then Miss. Anum why don't I accompany you hun? I hope that's okay with you? Anum was flabbergasted she didn't knew her plan would work so fast, she was happy now but didn't show it as Mr.Evil could suspect little did she know, he already knew what was going on but didn't push on it as he just wanted to be with her whether it was going out on a date or just staying at home with her.
"No you can't stay here!" she exclaimed."I mean I'm comfortable being alone I don't need company but thank you for your concern", she tried to remain calm.
"I am staying here with you whether you like it or not...no one's asking for your permission", he said with anger building up in him, she was pushing him away and no girl ever pushed him away the way she was doing it which left him annoyed.
"Mr. Khan this is my house and I get to decide as to who stays and who doesn't...now if you would please get out so I could go get some sleep which I couldn't get all thanks to you as you made it a hectic week", she realized what she said....her tongue again slipped and she covered her mouth with her right hand. Sohail was partially mad at her and partially amused by the way she always turns out to speak the truth of him in one way or another. He would never allow for anyone to be like this with him but this girl was something else he thought, why would he always let her be this way with him was beyond his understanding or one could say he didn't want to understand it.
He heaved a sigh and without speaking another word went up to the sofa and sat on one of them made for three persons. Anum shut the door and stood there with her hands resting on both sides of her waist and looking at him intently as if for him to change his mind but Sohail shrugged and Anum huffed,"fine if you want to stay here then stay here but don't you dare ruin my sleep or I'll go all ninga on you", she said with an angry expression which Sohail thought was cute."Won't do", he said and made himself more comfortable on the sofa. Anum huffed and plunked her foot on the marble.
She entered her room and got under the covers and fell into deep slumber.

Meanwhile
He was sitting there on the sofa and thinking of ways to do something special for her while she was asleep. He knew better than to break her sleep so he thought of ways to surprise her without making any noise. As he was thinking deeply his cellphone rang, he quickly picked it up as Anum's room was near and the ring tone was loud enough for her to listen. "This better be important ", he said through gritted teeth on the phone. "Sohail have you started to work on the plan?", the person on the other side of the phone asked. Sohail shut his eyes then opened them and spoke,"I'm working on it Bajwa...now is that why you called?"
"Yes and no! tell me how long is it going to get cause here things are already going out of hands plus we need that plan to work Asap. Your lawyer called and gave some good news too."
"I'm getting her Bajwa,just need more time she's not an easy target and what's the good news you got...spit it already!"
"So Mr.Hamid said that documents regarding your ill legal house have been denied as they were fake the ECP has given warning to Karamdar's lawyer for submitting fake document and you are to submit any relevant document you have of that house of yours in Bani Gala....you have to prove it if it's not illegal."
"Now that's half good news Bajwa.....and I'll see to it what I can do...can't we get a couple of days for submitting the documents?"Sohail asked.
"Yeah they've given us a five day notice...we all can do something about that in these days...no need to worry."
"Okay gotta get going man...have to take care of this plan of ours and oh don't tell anyone about it not even Adnan."Sohail whispered as he didn't want the last part to be heard by Anum in case she gets up.
"Sure thing...but remember get her no matter what! we need this...." Bajwa said.
"I know it don't remind me again and again", he said with an annoying tone. With that they both got off the phone.
