Hayat's pov:

" what game are we going to play at this time of the night?" I questioned with amazement to which he winked .

" come sit here" , he tapped the space beside him . I sat opposite to him .

" We can have turns and ask question to each other . For an instance , I'll ask you a question about myself . You have to guess it . From this I can know about how much you have known about me and the same applies to you".

" okay, but let's start with you first" .

" I'm completely fine with it as long as you are comfortable with it ".

We stared at each other in the dark for a moment before I faked a cough to make him start the game .

" okayy Hayat , as it is the first question , I'm making it very simple.
Can you guess my favourite color ?"

" it's blue. to say precisely, the color of my eye is your favourite color . Am I right Hamza?"

" wow I'm amazed , you have known me so well Hayat . So now it's your turn to question me ."

" okay since you asked a simple question , I am too going to start with simpler ones. can you Guess my favourite person ?"

" it's so obvious that it's me ". He laughed.

" I'm taking this as a joke, so you have another chance to correct your wrong answer ".

"Okay okay , it's Romaisa, Iet her have that credit for a few days , before I take that away from her ".

" I love Romaisa, but when it comes to favourite, it is and will always be Rafan . He has been with me at all the times ". I wiped my tears which peeped out without my permission .

"Okay , now we are going to level hard . You have to guess what I dislike the most , it may be anything ".

" you dislike to show yourself as a good person , you want people to see your imperfections, you don't want us to see that you are improving , that you are trying hard , you don't want to show yourself as perfect ".

Hamza's pov:

"Hayat , by any ways are you a psychiatrist? " . I was dumbfound . She is a beauty with brains.

Her giggle echoed in our room . It made my soul happy . She is a blessing, a light to my dark life , a joy in my life of misery , a good deed in my life full of sins .

Hayat's pov:

" now you are gonna guess my dream , the dream I have dreamt all my life , the dream I had of the man I would marry ". I felt shy , but this night made me bold , I always felt that people exaggerated this 1 AM thoughts . But it's true . our deepest desires as well as our deepest fears comes alive at this time of the night . I felt exposed. The emotions at this time are raw .

Hamza's pov:
" an interesting question , I don't know about your dream , but I'm sure that you never dreamt of a husband like me . I am not the ideal person , you are a perfectionist and I am the mr. Imperfect. We are two opposite poles , but unfortunately opposite poles attract each other and our case is a proof to that . You would have dreamt of a religious man, a man who would be a good soul like you . A man who would be perfect in all the aspects , a man who would be ....

Before I could complete my sentence, she was yawning.

"Hayat I feel sleepy , can we talk about this later , maybe tomorrow". I offered her.

Mmm, sure hamza ...

Good night sweet dreams , I whispered to her and we both fell asleep beside each other , maybe one day we will fall asleep on each other's arms .
