How They First Met!

CHAPTER 3: HOW THEY FIRST MET…..

Maryam waited for hours and hours and there was no sign of Rohan…. At first she waited and thought he might be busy at work, but almost the day was passed and now Maryam started to panic…. She had his address, but she was reluctant to leave airport somehow she was feeling safe there don't know what kind of people are out there so she decided to wait till Rohan comes…..She waited in the arrival area all the time she kept on going from one hall to another just in case  Rohan was searching her in some other arrival lounge, as it was a huge airport.

A whole day was spent waiting for him and Rohan didn’t come she didn’t have a SIM, nor Us currency so finally she decided to exchange some Pakistani rupees she started searching for the money exchange and exchanged few thousand rupees. She then went straight up to the phone booths pit some coins and dialled back home to Pakistan, but nobody was picking up the call then she realized what time it would be there….. “Oh! They must be sleeping”

After getting fully exhausted she again went to lounge on and this time she was just about to cry, she started looking in every direction just in case Rohan has come to pick her up but there was no Rohan…..She was in her thoughts when suddenly she heard a thud near her…. Very nearer to her so she turned and hardly controlled her cry…….

“Where have you been darling???? I have been searching you like mad everywhere…. tum Kahan Chali gai teen mujhe batae bagher?” A boy was all on his knees in front of her, his hands were in a posture of begging and his eyes had a sparkle in it…. They were shining like a bright star… but what the hell he is doing in front of me… Maryam was hell shocked

“Uh… what..kon hen ap? Maryam hardly could utter those words and took a step back

“Kia? Mein? mein kon Hoon? Itna gussa? Itni narazgi k apne majazi Khuda ko pehchanne se inkar ker rai ho”  Shehry was in full swing

“What?   Ro…Rohan? No you can't be him… what?”....Maryam couldn’t understand anything she was so hell confused

“Rohan? Who is Rohan? I am Murtaza… your love..Our first and last love. Please come with me come back, please” Shehry said and stood up, he took a step towards her and she took a step back, her face was like… confusion and cuteness personified…. And shehry was actually enjoying her discomfort, but trying to control his grin. While Hussain was busy making their video from his seat

“pl …ple..please kon hen ap mein nai janti ap ko….leave me alone”  maryam tried hard to contain herself but she felt her eyes were getting moistened now…she hated that why is that she cries all the time

 “mein janta hoon tum muj se naraz ho…per maaf ker do please…aesa bhi kia k tum mujhe bhool he gaeen meera! Please ghar chalo pappoo or munnni kab se apni maa ka intizaar ker rae hen …chalo!”.  Shehry was just about to take her wrist in his hand when she suddenly backed off she almost tripped on her wheeler and started running… she ran out of the lounge like mad and didn’t turn back…..There Shehry was standing with HER luggage alone

Hey…..listen! Ms!...Miss?  …wait i was joking…hey!...Shehry cried after her, but she didn’t just listen…

Arey nam he batati jateen muhtermaa!!!  Shehry said aloud and glared at the luggage in front of him… he and Atif went to the counter and submitted her belongings over there…..Just when Shehry was putting the luggage on the belt, he saw a tag with its just hopping for what he wanted to know he grabbed the tag and there it was…. Her name; Maryam Afzaal

“Maryam Afzaal……..Mary-um!” He mouthed and an amazing smile appears on his face.
