"I am doing fine." I says and continue to clean kitchen after breakfast. I heard him sighing on the other side and could feel him nodding.

"If you have any problem or need anything, then call me. Okay?" I sigh silently and nodded.

"Okay Ahmed." I say and take my phone from between my shoulder and ear and hold it in my hand.

"I have to go now. I will see you in the evening." We bid our goodbyes and hung up. I walk upstairs back in the room to clean the mess that Uzair makes before going to the office. I walk in and sigh at the sight of damp towel laying on bed and some of his suits laying on couch. I shake my head and starts cleaning everything.

It was almost evening when Uzair came home. After he get fresh, I look at him when I saw him packing his carry on and he was on the phone.

"It is okay, I can manage. You and Ahmed take care of everyone here." He says and hung up. He put his bags by the bed and went up to his desk.

"Are you going somewhere?" I asked him as I stand a few steps away from him. He looks at me and nodded before going back to searching.

"Yeah. I am leaving for Canada tonight. I had to deal with some clients there." He told me. I nodded and ask him what he was searching.

"A black folder. I didn't remember where I keep it." I walk to the other side of the bed and open the side table drawer. I take out the folder that he put 2 days ago and give it to him.

"Here." He look at it and give me a smile. He thanks me and put it his office bag.

"Get ready, we have to leave soon. Dad called and inform me that they couldn't come and told us to go without them." He said. I nodded and get ready for the dinner.

"Assalam-o-Alaikum." We give our Salam as soon as we enter into the living room. I straight walk up to my brothers and give them a hug. I feel my eyes watering, but I control myself and push out a smile when they pulled back.

"How are you?" Hussyan Bhai asked me softly and make me sit on the couch. I smiled at him and nodded.

"I am good." I say and they started to chat about how much emptiness they feel. Arsalan brings Eshaal with him to me and give me a tight hug. He asked me to stay here, which wasn't possible. I was about to turn him down when Uzair interrupted me.

"She will stay." I look at him, but he smiled at Arsalan who look happy and give a hug to Uzair.

"But your parents..." I trailed off. He looks at me and shrugged.

"Don't worry about them. Actually, they ask me to drop you here for a few days, so you could spend some time with them." He told me to make me smile slightly. I nodded and went back to chatting with my family. I looked up when I heard footsteps and was surprised to see Samairah standing at the door with Sila.
