Safe.

That's what Nargis was feeling right now, which she hadn't felt like in months. She didn't remember when was the last time she was leisurely sipping on her tea and that too with a handsome company like him. Naah.

She immediately slapped herself at the thought. Hard. And quickly looked away as he turned his face towards her to inspect the cause of the sound.

"I'll just take a look-over outside and then I'll take you to your home. Just wait here." he said keeping the empty glass on the table. And before she could even make a sound, he was out of the hut.

As soon as he stepped out, he released the breath he didn't knew he was holding. Raking a hand through his thick luscious hair, he rubbed his eyes feeling frustrated. He was using all of his power, to not to look at her, to not to talk to her and she was making it all the more difficult with her cute voice and those big round eyes.

Ya Allah, he was worried for her. So much that he couldn't wrap the idea around his mind as to why. For all he knew she might be the culprit.

No. She doesn't look like that.

Then what does she look like.

Beautiful. Duh.

A constant conversation between his heart and mind was going on and he groaned.

"Shut up" he muttered to himself and then walked to the shopkeeper to ask about any unknown and shady people lingering around. After looking in all directions he made his way back.

As he stepped inside the hut, he was welcomed by a ninja Nargis with the tray in her hands, ready to knock him down.

She screamed, he shouted and then held her hand just above his head.

"Its me! Nargis" he whisper shouted, with wide eyes. She blinked a few times and then rested her hand on her chest heaving a sigh of relief.

"You scared me" he said, immediately leaving her hand upon realizing.

"I am sorry. Its just, it was taking you long, so I was about to come out scared that they might have caught you."

She was worried for him?

He wanted to grin like a cheshire cat, but instead said, "Nargis, they don't know me, so you don't have to worry about me" he said and walked further inside with a smile on his face.

"I..no..I-wasn't..worried" she stuttered and this turned his smile into a satisfied smirk. Picking up her backpack, he turned around only to see her flushed face.

"Lets go. Just tell me where you live" he said and saw her expressions turning grim.

"That's the thing actually. They already know where my room is, and are probably waiting outside with their men to catch me. That's why for the past few months I have been switching hotels, so as not to get caught. But somehow they found me today at my place of stay and the rest you know" she explained everything so casually that it felt like she was talking about her school picnic.
