I was looking for Sarah when I bumped into someone. I saw Groom standing in front of me with a nervous expression.
"Hey, you're the Groom. Right?" I asked.
"Yeah, and you?" He asked.
"Hareem." A look of recognization flashed across his face.
"Oh, So you are Hareem. I've heard a lot about you," I gave him a confused face.
I was about to ask who told him about me but a voice interrupted us.
"Oyi, Feroz!" Arsal yelled as he approached us.
Feroz, I guess the Groom's name was, Put and arm around Arsal's shoulder and look at me.
"Here he is. He told me about-" his voice muffled when Arsal put his palms on Feroz's Mouth.
"Aren't you supposed to meet the other guests?" He asked, giving him a hard look.
Feroz nodded quickly and left. Not before giving me a friendly wave.
I glared at Arsal and crossed my arms.
"What?" He acted oblivious.
"Don't be naive, you know what I'm talking about." I told him.
Suddenly, Atif Aslam's song Dekhte Dekhte started echoing across he hall.
The one who never went away from the eye,
Went missing in a few moments.
Arsal offered me his hand and asked sweetly.
"Dance with me?"
I grabbed his hand and he started twirling me around.
I think, she was so innocent.
But in a flash, she became something else from her self.
He looked at me with such a quite simple yet complex emotion, I was left confused.
The one who used to say that we will never be apart from each other,
Said goodbye in a few moments.
She and me,
In many evenings.
There were full lightening moons in the sky.
The tide of love ocean went low,
With only leaving sand in my hands.
Someone Please ask her,
What mistake did I make?
Why did she became angry in just about few moments.
The one who used to breath in and breath out with my breath.
Flew away in the wind in just a flash.
I was the only reason to live and die for her.
Became unwanted in just a flash.
The song ended, Arsal looked at me as if he wanted to say something but Sarah came.
"Come and dance with me." She dragged me along with her.
I glared.
"That's not how you ask someone to dance."
"Well I do." She laughed, making me laugh with her.
I turned around to see Arsal but there was no sign of him.
Me and Sarah danced and laughed loudly, people around us gave us weird glances.

"This dress is itching me." Complained Sarah.
"Then who told you to wear such a heavy and itchy dress." Arsh popped in to our conversation.
"No one asked your opinion." Sarah said.
Arsh snickered, only to make Sarah more mad.
"Well, your best friend here doesn't look like she is going to say anything. So someone had to give opinion." I laughed but then I realized what he just said.
"Hey!" I hit him.
"Hareem dear. Come here for a second?" Aunt called out.
I walked up to her but not before giving the Bickering couple a last glance.
"Yes, Aunt."
"Beta, She is your Mama's School friend." She introduced me to a lady.
I greeted her.
"Oh look how much you've grown. I've heard your studying Medical that's great. Such a beautiful daughter Saba has gotten."
I smiled shyly.
"You can go, join your friends." I smiled a last polite smile and left.
I was walking to my friends with a smiley face, but It faded as I saw their expressions.
Sarah and Tabrez looked in heated conversation. Bilal was standing with a worried expression, he'd glance at his phone after every single second.
And Arsh had a confused as hell look. Arsal was nowhere to be seen.
From the Direction I was approaching them, none could see me.
When I walked a little closer, I could hear them saying.
"What do you mean we should not tell her. She should know." Tabrez said.
Sarah gave him unbelievable look.
"No, no one will tell her."
Who are the talking about.
"But why? It's not like he was her husband or his dad or something."
"Tabi, it's not the point." She said slowly.
"Guys, his condition is so Critical. They're saying he has lost a lot of blood and can collapse into coma."
Bilal butted in and my breathing stopped for a moment.
This time Tabi started walking, But Sarah grabbed his arm.
"Where do you think you're going?" She asked.
"To tell her." He said casually.
Bill's phone rung, he picked it up and said quickly.
"How's Hashir?"
At the same time Tabrez jerked his arm from Sarah's grasp and said.
"She fucking deserves to know that her cousin was in a fucking accident."
___________________________________________________________________
Umm yeah, that was the bomb.
See you soon, bye bye.
But tell me your thoughts about Hashir being in accident. How would Hareem react to it?
