She sits in her apartment playing with her cat for a moment while her cat completely ignores her.
"You know you are supposed to be playing with me". She whined playfully glaring at her cat
Her cat just walks away.
"Fine, be that way". She said huffing
She opens her laptop working on things for tomorrow. She looks over her schedule when she heard her phone ringing.
"Abbu". She said answering the call
"Beta (daughter), did you think about it?". Her father asked
"Yes, and I am not ready for it just yet". She replied, "Just give me some time".
"You know I just-". Her father started
"Please". She said stressed
After ending the call she walks towards her trance looking at the sky in front of her. She knows her father just wants her to be settled but what if her father and her plans don't match?.
She walks back inside after the night get colder doing her work once again. She places headphones in her ear while playing her favourite music.
"Darling, I am home". She heard him say
She turns to look at him entering inside with a big smile and her own lips turn into a smile.
"You are back". She said softly
He nodded throwing himself on the couch beside her.
"Yes". He said placing his head in her lap looking at her face, "What are you doing?".
She shrugged, "Nothing. Just doing some work for tomorrow. I was looking at our company back home".
A beautiful smile gazes his lips, "Those were the days, right?".
"Which?". She asked unconsciously brushing his hair away from his face
"Back home. I missed them". He said sighing
"What is there to miss?. We are still together anyway". She said softly
"No, I love how we used to play together". He said sadly, "Then what happened?".
"What?". She asked confused
"Why do you hate me?". He asked and his voice so low and gentle that hurt her heart
"I don't hate you, Zafar". She said
"Then?. Why did you suddenly started fighting with me?". He asked
"You don't remember?". She said confused and he shakes his head, "You broke my grandmother's necklave that she gifted me before she died".
He sits back up looking at her, "I never broke it".
"Hasan (old neighbour) said you did". She said confused
He holds her hand in his, "You know I knew how precious your things are to you. I could never do something like that not with you, at least".
"So you didn't do anything?". She asked and he nodded, "And we have been fighting for no reason?". He nodded again
"We were played". They both said
