Chapter Thirty Seven: Me?! A tease!?

"Slit your throat?" I asked confused.

I started thinking of slitting throat movies.

Arhaan slapped his forehead and shook his head.

"Okay act it out in some other way! We're running out of time!!" Lana yelled.

We were having a family night at our place. It was Arhaans family and mine. Excluding our parents.

Right now, we were playing charades, and I must say, Arhaan was terrible at it. He only did the part camera rolling part right, meaning to say it was a movie, and that's basic. once he had done that, he was blank.

Arhaan, Lana, Ayoub bhai and I were on one team. Zahra aapi, Ayaan, Faiz and bhabhi were on the other. Since Aamir didn't want to play, he was babysitting majid.

"Times up!" bhabhi yelled.

"No!!" Ayoub bhai yelled in dismay.

We lost.

"What was the name of the movie you asked to act?!" Lana asked Arhaan.

"Suicide squad." He said softly.

That is so easy! I NEED to give some acting classes.

"Hah! Take that husband! You'll lose." Zahra aapi said to Ayoub bhai as she stuck her tongue out at him.

He shook his head laughing.

Arhaan came and sat back next to me while he scratched his head guiltily.

"I'm terrible at this." He said to me.

"Its okay jaan. Its only a game." I said laughing.

"Ahh.. i dont know." He replied.

I shook my head laughing.

"Alright. The cricket match is about to start!" I yelled switching on the television.

"Yes!!" Everyone yelled as they settled themselves on the couch.

Everyone got busy talking about the previous match when I took it as my opportunity and slipped out to make some snacks for us. I didnt want to disturb zahra aapi and lana.

"Hoi! Where are you going?!" Zahra aapi asking as I stepped out and was sliding the tv room doors.

"Nothing!" I yelled sliding it shut.

She and Lana came out in a millisecond.

Sigh.

"Aapi! Lana! go back in!" I said

"Where are you off too huh?! Don't trouble yourself, come back in with us." Zahra aapi said.

"Haye Allah! Just go back in, and settle yourselves for the match I'll be back in fifteen minutes max." I said firmly.

Zahra aapi sighed as she understood that I was firm on not troubling them. "If you're not there in fifteen minutes, I'll be here the next second." She said going back in, but not before slapping my arms.

I planned on making popcorn, Strawberry smoothie and bread paneer rolls. They were real quick and easy to make, and I had already prepared the paneer curry for the bread rolls.

I was frying the last batch of rolls when I felt someone hug me from behind.

It was that same mint and earthy cologne which i was so addicted to. He then nuzzled his face on my neck, making my whole body go into an overdrive. I stood in place, with the skimmer in my hand as I felt my knees go weak.

"Jaan. What are you doing?" Arhaan asked. Still hugging me. His chin resting on my shoulder blade.

I gulped before I spoke "I'm.. I'm making us a few snacks." I whispered.
