Arsalan" Hurry up!"
I looked down at the screen once more before breathing out deeply.What was she up to?
Opening the car door, I stepped out and closed the door behind me.My charcoal eyes roamed around the green hills of Abbottabad, finding the surrounding extremely pleasant and peaceful.The late afternoon had welcomed us with open arms, bringing the clear blue sky and the hues of orange and contrasting pink.The fresh green fields remained all around with the low hills standing proud.The soft wind dancing past us on its own tunes, making the fields respond to as, dancing along them.
The sun rays softly touched the earth with a silent farewell, ready to set itself free from its duties for the coming night.
But as I looked up at the sky, the chirping birds that returned to their home brought back a distant memory.I felt something very familiar but my mind couldn't just decipher.
Shaking my head lightly, I looked down at my hand as the matt black device in my hand vibrated making me swipe my fingers against the screen and unlock it.
" Coming up or not??"
A messaged popped up from my wifey, spreading a grin across my face.Turning around on my heels, I rounded the car and looked up the hilly path I was supposed to climb.
The grassy hill had a narrow pathway of stairs made by the habitants that lived way up the hills.Careful on my steps, I stuffed my hands deep inside my dress pants pockets.
Small stones and bits of rocks pushed against the sole of my black shoes as I stepped up the grassy stairs.A clearing came to the view with green trees all around.A gush of wind swirled past me making the thick of my strands to mess up.Running my hand from my hair, I pushed them away from my eyes.
Two kids ran past me and down the stairs, their smiling faces flowing as they ran away making me look at the direction they came from.Walking forward, I saw a small quarter made by the edge of the hill.The plateau surface now becoming more wide as I walked further.
The tall trees chanted with the bird nests in them.As my dark eyes trailed at them.White petals trailed a delicate path on the ground almost unnoticeable.But as my gaze traced them, I knew it was made for me.
Following it, I looked around at the beautiful view before me.My feet reaching towards my destination.I halted almost amazed and taken back.
The two mountains before me cradled the sun between them.A sight so pure and beautiful that my heart shook in its cage.The rays converging and the orangish pink sky glowing above.But what added more to the sight was the woman that stood there.
My destination.
A white flowy dress supported her figure.The white so pure that the silver thin lace around the bodice stood out against it.Down the waist the dress that plates that made her dress squish with the wind.The long dress reaching till the ankles as she had matched white tights with it.
A chiffon dupatta was around her shoulders, the white long fabric only dancing against the wind.
Her beautiful grey eyes were shining as she stared at me.As simple as always, she had a light lipstick against her lips with no other makeup.Her naturally curled eyelashes kissing the softness of her cheekbones each time she blinked.
Her hair were in a messy bun at the nape of her neck.Ten steps away from her and I could feel her gulp before she finally smiled.I managed to smile too.Questions filling my mind but my tongue remained tied to ask anything.Amal pulled the white dupatta away from her shoulders before covering her hair with the dupatta.The gesture so familiar that it left me breathless.
