25. LOVE UNCONDITIONALY

When khizer reached home; back from office, she was waiting for him.

After dinner, around 11:00 pm she wished for ice cream. Despite how tired he was, Khizer agreed happily, "Let's go, Eman."

While holding his hand, she teased him, "you are too good, Khizer."

"Unfair, that's blackmailing, "Khizer complained.

"Yeah it is," she said with a peaceful grin.

On the walls of their apartment, many more pictures had been added. They were of good memories, mostly of the honeymoon. But the first photograph showed Eman as his beautiful bride, that was khizer's favourite.

Each of the photos had one thing in common: the happiness and the shine in their face, love in his eyes, and the smile on their lips would compel the viewer to smile and compel them to say at the first glimpse, they are made for each other; every photo was the proof.

The next morning, Khizer woke first; fifteen minutes before his alarm was set to go off. He laid in bed for a few minutes, not knowing what time it was. He then grabbed the alarm clock from the side table and switched it off, no longer in need of it.

With extreme care, he stood and switched on the lamp just long enough to locate his slippers before turning it off again. He then saw Eman move and switch on her lamp. He hadn't realized she'd woke up.

Khizer took a deep exhale, "I thought you were sleeping."

Eman while looking at him answered, "I wake up now to any movement in the room."

She watched her cell phone.

Khizer came close to her, sat near her, innocently apologized, "but I was quiet, I didn't produce any kind of sound. I was trying not to disturb you."

He was looking in awe.

Eman holds his hand to make him comfortable, "My sleep is not deep Khizer. I wake at even slightest movement."

She took a deep breath and put her cell phone on the side table.

Khizer gently said, "I'll be careful next time."

Eman left his hand gently, " No need, I've become used to it. I no longer care."

She took another pillow and put it beneath her head and closed her eyes. before entering the washroom he watched her face for a few minutes.

Every human is like a book, An open book which was read by anyone: Eman was too an open book for him but wrote in dutch.

He was looking to her face. After a few minutes, Eman felt his eyes on her face.

She looked back at him, he held a book in his lap and continuously watching her face.

Eman narrowed her eyebrows, " What happened? "

She smiled. She was now addicted to his eyes. He sometimes likes that with no reason stared at her for hours.

Khizer seriously answered, " I want to tell you something? "

Eman curiously asked, "What?"

Khizer chuckled, "You are the best thing ever happened to me ."

She was surprised for a moment before she released a small laugh.

What was the reason behind this compliment? she did not understand.

Khizer spoke again, " I love you."

She laughed again. She was blushed this time.

Eman hardly found words to speak, "Thank you."

It was that answer which he usually heard.

This time he laughed. Seeing him laughing, in a second they both laughed. Either she laughed so openly for the first time or he looked her from the very close while laughing.

While putting the clothes in the cupboard, Eman again noticed his eyes on her face.

When she looked at him, He was looking to her in reality.

Eman smiled, "What is this now?"

" I was thinking....? " He became serious again.

"About what?" Eman questioned.

" That you are not only looking damn pretty while crying but also while smiling too," Khizer told her.

Eman turned her face. She had no words to answer, chuckled.
