Karishma's POV:

### FLASHBACK STARTS ###

That night was my first longest happy night with Haseena.  It was more than 4am, I didn't remember the exact time when I saw her from the sliding window of her bedroom, she was praying peacefully & didn't notice me. But I felt an immense urge to go near her. It felt like, I want to see her from closer, nothing more, just want to see this face! But then I closed my eyes hurriedly cause I don't want to indulge in the moment. Hume aisa lag raha tha ki,

Kuch toh ajib ho raha hai,
Kuch toh galat hai,
Jo bohot sahi lag raha hai aaj.
Aur yeh bhi lag raha tha ki,
Agar yeh feeling sahi nehi hai
toh hume galat mein hi jeena hai,
lekin yeh sukoon hume chahiye .......

I had never felt this much confused, so I closed my eyes to break my chain of thoughts. I should just sleep. But closing my eyes couldn't hinder her view as it was imprinted in my eyes or in my brain. But anyhow I drifted into sleep.

I opened my eyes when Haseena called me, "Karu uthiye, it's 7:00 am already, aapko quarter bhi jaana hai."

I opened my eyes & was mesmerized by her view. I asked, "Kya yeh sapna hai?" & All of a sudden something furry came in a rush & bite my right big toe & vanished. Then I get to know that it's reality. Haseena came running towards her couch, touched my feet to check if the bite was serious or not & then said, "it was a light bite, no worries"

Me: Agar yeh light hai toh serious kaunsi hai?

HM: woh bhi dekhenge aap kabhi injection dete waqt! Aab to aate rahenge, hai na. Wada jo kiya hai aapne. Aur yeh to sara sheher janta hai ki....

Me: Ha ha... bas bohot hogaya tang khhichna.... Lekin hume nehi dekhna serious bite kaisa lagta hai, hume baksh dijiye!

HM: kya matlab, wouldn't you come for the injection tonight?

Me: Ji zaroor ayenge lekin injection dekar chala jayenge. Itni der tak nehi rahenge.

*Straight looking into my eyes she asked, "Kyun darrte hai ki kahi Aadat ho jayega?"

She started this dangerous game but I won't lose. So I said, "Ha, isi baat ka darr hai ki aadat ho jayega..."

*I took a pause & then said, "Aapki yeh couch ka"

Haseena then moved her eyes from me & looking in the opposite direction she said, "Iss guest room ki washroom mein spare toothbrush hai, jaiye fresh hoke aiye. I'm making breakfast.

Me: Hamare liye taqleef karne ki koi zaroorat nehi, hum ghar jaake ya phir canteen mein breakfast kar lenge .

HM: Karishma! Aap agar hamari dost hai, toh aapko nashta karke jaan hoga. Jaiye pehle washroom mein. Kitni zidd karti hai aap! Hamari saath zidd kabhi maat karna kyunki Aapki gusse ko to sara sheher janta hai lekin hamari gusse ko hum bhi thikse nehi jante..!

Me: ok.. thik hai. Hum aate hai fresh hokar.

& When I came from the washroom the table was already ready with bread, poached egg & butter. Though it was a random arrangement, the smell was good.

Me: What's this good smell?

MH: It's because of butter. Baithiye.

We started eating in silence. She was in her formals with a ponytail. I asked, "Do you have alexa?"

HM: Not in this room but Bob can play songs, what do you wanna listen to?

Me: Ek ladki ko dekha to aisa laga....!
