Chapter 11- Face It

*Zayn's P.O.V*

After reading the message one more time, I clicked 'send' and I heard the familiar dock sound indicating that the message was delivered. With that I threw the phone inside my pocket and stared at the laptop infront of me. I was looking at Doniyah's wedding photoes while laying on my bed with the laptop on my chest. The photoes were so beautiful. Doniyah looked really beautiful in all of it. As I was scrolling, I came across this certain photo that made me sit up straight, and take a brief look at the photo. It was of Waliyha, Mom and Azra. Azra, the name itself makes me grit my teeth. The photo was simple, mom in the middle with Waliyha and Azra on either sides. For some reason, I couldnt take my eyes off of Azra. Out of control, my fingers contracted on the mouse pad, making the photo to zoom and I was completely lost. I took a zoomed look at her figure and stopped at her face. Many undescribable feelings ran through my head while looking at her face this close. I was about to zoom even more, "Zayniee...", I looked up to see Waliyha standing with a bored look on her face and I looked at the laptop to see Azra's face, then looked at Waliyha before shutting it quickly and throwing aside making Waliyha's face turn into confusion and in return I sheepishly grinned at her, "What were you looking at?",she asked as her eyes took a glance at the laptop and then at me, "A man like me can look at anything, and you kids need to stop poking your nose onto such stuffs", I commented and as expected she glared at me, "Im 22!", "Im 26 kiddo", I winked and she huffed, "Fine, whatever grandpa, I came to tell you that Safaa is not eating her food or neither is she opening her door", she told me as her voice grew boring at the mention of Safaa. I nodded at her and stood up stretching my hands, looking at the laptop to see its 'OFF', then looked at Waliyha, "Only a human can understand another human", I ended it with a wink making her jaw drop and made my way outside the room with a smirk. They really need to pay attention on Safaa, and shouldnt be treating her the way they do. Everybody knows that Im one of a hard-face in the family and yet Safaa is comfortable with me and not with the soft faces. And they should blame themselves for this action of Safaa towards them. She is just 18 and it is completely Okay for her to be distant with the family.

Teen hormones and all..

As I was closer to her door, "Safaa.....open the door", I called out, "Its open", I heard Safaa's voice coming out of her room and I looked at the door confused, Didnt Waliyha say that she is not opening the door? I shrugged and opened the door before stepping in, as usual I saw her sitting on the bed with the phone in her hand and the familiar pout making me smile a little, "Hey princess", I called very softly and her head snapped towards me and I grinned making her smile before throwing her phone on the bed and running towards me, hugging me. I hugged her back and rubbed her hair, bending to kiss her head and I pulled back.

I dont know why or how, but whenever Im with Safaa, I become completely a different person. She brings the softer side inside me and I become a whole new person infront of her. I looked around the room and looked at her, "How is our little princess doing today?", I asked her as I made my way towards her bed before sitting on it, "First tell me, why your at home and not at the Corporate?", she asked with her usual silent voice and I yawned shrugging, "Its sunday for a reason", I scolded her and she shook her head, "Oops..", she muttered making me chuckle, "There is a calender you blind woman", and she poked her tongue out at me making me chuckle even more. As I looked at the table beside her, the food tray was placed on it making me look at her, "You not hungry?", I asked her and she looked at me, "I am Zayn, but I dont want to eat", she complained making me to furrow my eyebrows at her and in return she gave me the, 'I dont know why', look making me sigh and lean forward before grabbing the tray, setting it in between us, "Smells yummy though", I dramatically smelled and I could feel her eyes on me. I opened the lid of each and every dishes and the sight of the well cooked fried rice was beautiful. Out of all foods, this happens to be her favourite. I looked at Safaa, who looked at the dishes, a little bit interested than before and I mentally cheered at that. I rubbed my hands together before grabbing a spoon and digging inside, took a spoonful of fried rice, looked at her, "Not hungry?", I asked her, as she was about to say something, I inserted the spoon inside my mouth and shut my eyes before moaning dramatically. Im not at all hungry, but I have to pretend as if I am, so that I could make Safaa fill her stomach. As I swallowed the food, "Damn, this took me a trip to heaven..", I said looking at the food then at her to see her mouth wide-open making me smile at her and dig the spoon back again into the rice and grab some of it, and she looked at the rice, licking her lips expectantly, "Still not hungry?", I asked her and she nodded her head vigorously, but I pouted at her before leading it towards my mouth but stopped and looked at her, to see her arms crossed and shoulders slumped down making me smile at her and I pushed the spoon towards Safaa's mouth. Her eyes lit up and smiled wider before opening her mouth, closing her eyes but I had other ideas as I pulled my hand back and threw the spoonful of rice inside my mouth. As she realized what is happening, she opened her eyes and searched for the spoon, looked at me and her jaw dropped making me wink at her, "You didnt just do that..", she said shaking her head slowly in an unbelievable manner and I nodded at her signalling to wait. I swallowed after few seconds and chuckled, "Its not polite to force someone Saf", I told her grinning and she glared at me before harshly grabbing the tray from the bed and placing it on her lap making me chuckle.
