AN UNTOLD FAIRYTALE

Chapter 3

"Thank God! We arrived safely," upon entering the TV lounge, he slouched onto the nearby sofa. His legs outstretched on it and was sitting comfortably. Due to the glistening of the sun in the afternoon, his back was covered with the sheen of sweat.

"Thats really good!" Bano said with a toothy smile,"Rameen beta! Bring some refreshment for Hassan,"

"Ok mom! I am bringing it!" Rameen said while beaming with happiness.

Thank God! Atleast I will have some refreshment now!

Rameen brought a cup of tea for him and he took a sip out of it. Then he took another sip. Then he took millions of sips until the cup got empty.

Literally, the tea tastes like a rotten egg.

"Uh!" He said while placing the cup onto the nearby table.

"How was the tea?" She said while beaming with happiness.

"It was good!" he exclaimed. Then he began to have a strange feeling and gave a small burp. His heart was thumping violently in his chest but he tried to remain himself composed. Rameen sensed the uncomfortableness and asked him,"What happened?"

"Nothing." Hassan lied while something was really happening inside him.

"Ok! So... I am going to help mum for the preparation of the lunch." Rameen said while smiling,"If you need anykind of help then you should ask me."

"Ok! No problem." He smiled back. Rameen left and he was alone in the living room. He was still experiencing the vague unpleasant emotions coming in him. The edginess in him increased and he went into the washroom.

Maybe the hot atmosphere of the June and the warm tea, intermixed with eachother and was making his body temperature reach the maximum highest point.

Maybe some cold water will help me.

He opened the tap and began washing his face. The moment that water touched him; he became unconcious. The body temperature crossed the K2 mountain. The water that came out of the tap felt like ultra super times more hot.

He came back into the lounge, saw his face in the mirror and a red pimple on it with a morose expression.

Why is it happening with me?

"Hassan? The lunch is ready! Mom and everyone's waiting for you in the dining table." Rameen called out to him.

"Yes! Yes! I'm coming," he replied.

Rameen ushered Hassan to get in to the dining room. All of the family members seated themselves onto the dining table and began having the evening lunch.

"Woah! Biryani smells good!" He dugged into the food with ravenous hunger.

"I cooked it for you with so much hardwork," Rameen said while Rimsha gave a short mirthless laugh on which Bano elbowed her.

She doesn't even know how to make tea.

"Hassan beta! Why don't you take samosa? Rimsha beta give these to Hassan." Bano pointed towards the plate.

"No! No! Auntie I'm full," Hassan said after eating three plates full of biryani,"Thank you so much!"

"No! No! beta, you haven't eaten anything. You should also take more kababs." Bano said,"Rameen, Why don't you give him kababs?"

"Arrey Auntie! Why are you doing so much for me? It's too much," he said coaxingly.

"No! No beta! Its nothing." she exclaimed.

To end up this "No No Beta" and "No No Auntie" along with "Give him this Rimsha" and "Give him that Rameen" he finally grabbed all of the kababs and after putting them on his plate he ate all of them one by one.

"Are you happy auntie?" Hassan smiled while stuffing them in his mouth. Bano nodded happily.

"Everything was so much tasty and so much awesome," after eating all of their lunch, he said while getting up from his seat. Both of the sisters were busy collecting the dishes that was to be washed later.

"Thats so nice of you," Bano said.

"I'm very very tired." He said while yawning,"It was an 8 hour flight from England to Pakistan and I didn't sleep properly."

"We have arranged neat and clean room for you Hassan. Come and I'll show you where is it." Rameen exclaimed.

"Thats so nice of you," Hassan said.

Then Rameen showed him his room which was very clean. Hassan became very happy because he was going to have a nice sleep now. Rameen left the room and Hassan was lying on the bed ready to be drifted into the world of dreams...
