ISHQIYA

❤ ADAA-E-ISHQ I

Here our hero and heroine will meet each other. Both of them are famous in their own way and their style too.

******************************************************************************

The sky was clear. Some faint red sunrays were also hovering in that blue sky. Although Benazir wakes up at 7:30, nowadays her bua has come to visit her, who wakes her up before the rooster crows and keeps her on her toes.

But today, listening to Bua's order is out of her control because from today Benazir was ready to keep herself out of her sight for a whole week and she was excited about this. Today, she woke up just 5 seconds before the alarm clock rang. She then looked at the calendar, turned off the alarm clock and thanked Allah ji with a big smile.

After half an hour Benazir ran to the kitchen and looked here and there carefully.

"Your dear aunt has not woken up yet," her tayi ammi said while putting a strainer in the cup.

Benazir took a big biscuit and engulfing it whole says "Amma, aaj suraj purab se nahi nikla kya?" (Amma, the sun has not risen from the east today?)

She brings a secretive smile on her face and calls her near and whispers, "Beta, aaj teri bua paschim bhi nahi dekh paayegi. Raat ko uske doodh mein neend ki goli mila di thi" (My dear, your bua would not even see the west. I had put some sleeping pills in her glass of milk last night)

Benazir laughed loudly, "Tayi, your humour turns high whenever bua come"

Tayi narrowed her eyes and said, "arey, sacchi mein" (Arey, it's the truth)

Benazir looked at her in fear and held her hand tightly. Tayi patted her on the shoulder, "Beta, usne plan banaya hua tha ki wo tujhe rok k rakhegi. Waise to main kuch na karti par pata nhi dil ne kaha ki agar tu aaj trip pe na gayi to kuch na kuch ho jana hai to bas....." (She has all planned to stop you today. And I would have let her do it but my heart told me that if this trip is missed then,,,)

"Maine unke purse se dus rupaye churaye aur sleeping pills le kar aa gayi" Meera came into the kitchen and declared happily and snatched the tea from her mother's hand. (I stole a total of ten rupees from her purse)

Benazir glanced at the mother-daughter duo and confessed, "I love you both and I will love you both more than my husband."

Mother and daughter gave her a disgusting smile when Khurram entered in the kitchen, "My love, Benazir, it's finally time to run away with me."

Now, Benazir gave him a disgusting smile and both mother and daughter laughed.

Benazir punched him on his back and said, "Bag le kar aati hun" and ran into her room. (I am coming with my bag)

***************************************************************

"Professor, another volunteer on my bus is still out of reach" Karim said while taking the attendance list from the professor.

Professor gave him a little tense look and said, "Karim, she will be coming soon." Then looking at the college entrance he requested him, "Beta, Benazir is a little slow and she gets scared very easily so don't get too angry and be a little easy on her"

"Prof. why would I get angry for no reason? Just ask her to show her face here as soon as possible." He just finished his words when the professor shouted, "lo aa gayi" (she is here)

Both of them looked at the entrance gate and saw a little girl (not so little) just jump from the bike and run to them then while running she applied brakes on her legs and turned to the professor, "Sir, I am here."

Seeing her messed, almost red face Karim wanted to laugh but he pressed his lips and walked to the entrance and took the luggage from the man who had come with her and was looking at her with astonished expression.

"I will take care of her" Karim said to the man and the man looked at him as if saying good luck with that, brother and nodded his head and shouted at her, "Jaan, have fun but not too much fun." Then he rushed away from there.

Karim walks toward the bus taking her luggage when she comes to him and tries to take the bag but he interrupts her, "Go, sit inside."

"Good morning, guys" Entering the bus she started taking the attendance, first years were shouting too much so she had to use all her energy, "Students, just two minutes.... you last seat boy, Kid.... Goddddd" she closed her eyes in annoyance but suddenly everybody was in pin drop silence.

She wonders why, when, he shouted from behind, "Kisiko samajh nhi aa raha hai.... Hmmm .... she is taking attendance, now, everybody responds." He didn't even raise his voice and he had this effect on others. Rumours about him might not be rumours she heard. (Nobody is understanding anything...)

Benazir looked at him who was staring at her angrily, she then started taking attendance again. After attendance, she clapped to grab everybody's attention (although it was not necessary, Kareem's look was enough to calm everyone down) and said, "Hello children, welcome to your first year of college and first trip. I am your senior Benazir Hussain from second year, Zoology and this is your senior from third year," Benazir looked at Karim to introduce himself.

Karim took a breath and just said one word "Karim Chaudhary" and sat on the seat.

Benazir gave a tense smile and continued, "Children, this trip is not just for fun, you have to take photos of all the flora and fauna you see and write about them and also the experiences of the trip in 2000 words. So be prepared. enjoy." concluding her speech, she looked around to find her seat but only one seat was empty and that was beside him.

She was so scared of the idea of sitting beside him so she again looked here and there when Karim spoke in a very low voice, "Now, will you sit in the driver's seat? Come here and sit." Taking out a handkerchief and cleaning that seat for her and continued, "I left a seat next to the window for you"

Benazir nodded and sat next to him.

*****************************************************************

Now two hours have already passed. Benazir didn't move a single inch from her place. She just turned toward the window and constantly prayed to God to end the journey as soon as possible because, besides his angry aura, there was something else that was bothering her. She tried to control herself but now after two hours, she was no longer able to tolerate it.

So, she jerked her head towards Karim who was reading some notes and took a deep breath, again and again, his smell. His smell was too good and dominating like him and she just wanted to snatch that smell and hide it somewhere within her.

Consuming every inch of that smell she prayed that Karim would not notice her action but he did. He also jerked his head towards her and looked at her with a questioning gaze.

He just raised his eyebrows and Benazir blurts out "Sir your perfume is very good. Which one is it?"

Karim opened his mouth and then closed it, but before he could speak, Benazir came out of her trance and jerked her head toward the window and started whispering, "Sorry, sorry"

Kareem was still in shock and while he came out of the moment that just happened, he concluded something, sometimes professor's experience and observation can be wrong too.

She gets scared easily?

This girl just blurts out and scares others. He looked here and there and asked the driver, "Please stop the bus, a small dhaba has come."

Then getting up from his seat and without looking at others he shouted, "All of you. Dhaba is here."
