Falling for her

#Chapter-15

Ifza's pov :

"I'm Ifza Zafar! I'm not scared of anyone. I have to be brave and strong. No one can break my strength. I'll meet you Ruhaan. I definitely will." I mumbled to myself.

"But howww ahaaa" I cried stomping on the floor when I recalled all the mysterious things regarding him.

"Ifza come down!!" Dad yelled.

I hurried downstairs. Dad was waiting for me at the dining table and mom was as usual busy in the kitchen.

"Assalamualikum" (peace be upon you) . I hugged dad , greeting him.

He pecked a kiss upon my forehead greeting me back.

" How are you feeling, princess ?"  he asked.

"I'm fine dad " . I lied into his face.

I wasn't fine. I have my heart in my mouth because I have to face Ruhaan and his true colors.

" Then lend me a hand in the kitchen" mom called.

" Ahh! Ouch! I think I have headache." I faked the act leaning my head over my dad's shoulder.

" Drama queen!" mom taunted me.

" No. She'll not touch any chores until this week." Dad commadded. I jumped out of happiness.

" You've spoiled her way too much" she complained. Getting back to her work.

" How can't I. She's my princess and I love her." Dad said caressing my hairs.

" I love you too dad! You are the best." I said hugging him tightly. 

Zafar's pov: 

Ifza gave a tight hug screaming "you are the best". 

Am I? 

"You are the greatest blessing I've ever received in my life. I love you! I love you! I LOVE YOU!" She screamed hopping with joy. 

No I'm more blessed to have you as my princess. If it wasn't him, you wouldn't have been in our lives. But do I deserve all this? Am I really this deserving to get all her love. 

I was dragged from my lost world when I joined the loudest conversation of Ifza and Kinza again.  

" Now stop your father-daughter melodrama" Kinza scoffed from the kitchen.

" Look dad, someone is JEALOUS" Ifza teased her which made both of us chuckle.

I saw my princess isn't feeling well, she was sick as well as worried about something. More than worried her expressions were of tense and fear. Maybe she's thinking about Zain and his proposal. I don't want to force her into marrying someone she doesn't willing to, even if it's the last thing which keeps me from loosing her. I can't be selfish with my princess because of my greedy love for her. 

"What is it? My princess is dull. You sure you okay? Is something troubling you?" I catechized  her.

"No dad, I'm fine...it's just, i- I'm- I don't know"  she troubled finding words to speak.

"Well then you are confused and let me guess it's about Zain?" I added.

"No! No no no. Not him" she claimed.

"You like someone else?" I mustered.

"NO! No dad, it's not like that, I don't like anyone. It's not about love or marriage thing I'm worried of." She explained.
