When she finally opened her eyes again the sun was already high and blazing in the sky,she groaned and rubbed her eyes to get a clear view,her orbs came into contact with the white ceiling and she laid there staring at the ceiling for an immeasurable amount of time. 'What is taking him so long? Did perhaps something happened,may be he lost his phone or something bad happened to him' when she came to this conclusion Asma realized that she didn't try calling him as she was busy hanging on his promise.
She quickly rose from the bed,her mind wandered off to where she kept her phone. 'The library!' She ran to the library and roamed through the scattered books where she found her phone under one of the treatises on the coffee table .
She scrolled through her few contacts and her thumb stopped at the name Baby ,she dialed the number and found her seat on the library's sofa. She waited for some seconds but the number was not reachable,she dialed again but still the same. This caused an uproar in her mind as she paced up and down in anxiousness.
"Why is it not going through,does this mean something really happened" Asmas thoughts kept running haywire.
"What am I going to do?,should I call Maama".The ringing tone of her phone disrupted her soliloquizing.
She hurriedly checked the callers name,her phone almost slipped away from her hands. Fateema?she internally groaned.
"Yo! BFF ,missing someone doesn't mean you should forget about other things ,you have lectures to attend,you know?" Fateema's voice came through the phone speaker.
Asma wanted to dodge the lectures but as she thought about it she decided to go. May be leaving the house would ease up what she's feeling ,maybe she's worrying too much.
"I know" she replied back
"Okie dokie, get ready I am waiting for you at the front of your house,inside my car".

'My instinct is telling that something definitely happened,I forgot to check it with Maama,I should call her when I get home and try Hameed's number again,right?'
"Zaeem what was Juliet first words after she learned Romeo was her Family's enemy?"the professor called but Asma was dazedly drumming her pen on the desk.
"Zaeem?'the professor called again, and the hall went silent all attention gathered to Asma,Fateema who sat beside her nudged Asma's shoulder lightly.
"Huh?" She asked as she came out from her stupor
"The professor asked you something"
Fateema whispered to Asma. Asma quickly made her posture right and slightly shook her head to get rid of her thoughts.
"Yes sir?"
"You seemed dazed,are you alright?" the professor asked concernedly.
"I am okay"
"Alright I repeat,Zaeem which act and scene and what was Juliet first words after she learned Romeo was a Montague.In the book Romeo and Juliet by William shakesphere". The professor usually asked Asma questions as she's always attentive and sharp.
Asma processed his question and then answered
"Act 1 Scene 5,Juliet said " My only love sprung from my only hate!Too early seen unknown, and known too late!Prodigious birth of love it is to me,That I must love a loathèd enemy"
"Bravo!! You may seat down" the professor praised her with a smile,also a certain bluish grey eyed guy smiled as he looked at Asma with admiration,Asma felt his stare and looked to the side where the guy sat but before their eyes met he quickly docked his head down.
"Sir" a surreal voice called out and it was after some moments that everyone realized it was Asma's voice. Asma battled with her mind whether to ask her professor about what she read yesterday night that left her confused.
