INAYA

The dinner was delicious.. Yasin ordered Chicken Biryani rice, Fried fish, Shrimp soup and desserts. I noticed these were all my favourite food. Maye said she wanted to check on her make up and she went to bathroom. I was sitting between Yasin and A guy named Haqim, the other two looked like they were not even interested in any of us. Who did not even care about me or anyone who is around. They were too busy for themselves. Are they even friends of Yasin? I thought.

Yasin got a call, so he excused himself and I got opportunity to speak with Ray. So Ray do you mind if I ask you a question? I asked.

Sure bhabhi you do have many questions for me rather than for your Hubby Huh, he teased.

I guess I giggled and asked Are you married? Though I know he isn't I just wanted to know if he is single or not.

No bhabhi I'm not, He replied and added Yasin is married though...

Leave about Yasin.. So are you planning to get married like him? I replied playing along with him.

No bhabhi I dint find my girl like he did and right now I'm in love with my job, he added.

And then Yasin came and sat and Ray said, bhabhi for your previous question about what type of girls..

I like girls of your kind, who looks innocent, carefree and jovial. Once I find a girl like you, I will definitely marry her.

Ray come with me right now Yasin said firmly staring at Ray, what's wrong with him? Is he angry because of what Ray said?

Maye came and sat next to Yasin.. Then Maye, Yasin and Ray kept talking as if they were meeting after a long time. Yasin was not even glancing at me now.. He looked bit annoyed. Haqim was quite handsome and Charming. He served me food and was asking me about my family and education.

When I knew he was an artist, I was pretty impressed. He showed me some of his painting he did, through his phone. You wouldn't believe me, his drawings were so real and amazing, I love paintings too I told him.

He told me his studio was nearby. If I was free, I would visit him and he gave me his business card.

Yeah definitely it would be my pleasure, I smiled.

YASIN

I hate that guy! Why is he inviting her to his studio, and she never told me she loves paintings? I murmured.

Sshhss Man! She will hear you don't distract yourself you are here to make her jealous. Why are you even jealous they are just talking, Ray whispered.

Ray she is not even seeing towards me how will she feel jealous? Look at the way he is looking at her. I want to smack his stupid face, I said feeling furious.

Finee! Wait let me handle it You be quite, Ray whispered.

Inaya bhabhi, do you know? Maye and Yasin were so close in childhood days. We all thought they would marry when they grow up.

Really? That's so cute, Inaya replied.

What Cute? Does she even have a bit of feelings for me? I whispered annoyed.

Relax Man! Are you in love with her? Your jealousy looks so obvious, he chuckled. I stared at him and he mumbled Wait.. She will definitely feel jealous now. Ray was about to say one more plan...I cut him off and told him, I could not take this anymore.

Inaya there is something besides your lips, Haqim muttered.

He took his kerchief and was about to wipe her lips when I caught his hand and told him, "Better keep your hands and eyes away from my wife before it gets any worse"

Chill out dude! I wasn't having any wrong intension, Haqim stated.

I took Inaya's hand and went to the Car. I was too embarassed to even see her face after what I said, and I was so much angry with that stupid guy. I turned to see Inaya and I saw her smiling. When she noticed I'm looking at her, she quickly turned the other way.

Why are you smiling?! I asked.

I was thinking about Haqim. He is such a funny guy and you should definitely fix your temper, she replied.

That's it, my haterd for him grew even more. I stopped the car on the side ways.

What are you doing? She asked.

You are not supposed to think and smile about any other guy rather than me. I whispered it to myself.

What are you doing?! She asked again firmly.

I want to breathe fresh air, I said and got off the car.

She followed me back and asked, who were they?

What do you mean who were they? Ray told you right? I shrugged.

They just dint seem like your best friends, that Haqim guy dint even know you came from US and how would he be your childhood friend? Besides Aunt Zara told me that you never talked to her having any other friends rather than Ray, She questioned.

I can't say her that they were fake friends made by Ray to make you jealous? Can I ? So I said, I'm tired and when we reached home, I went straight to my room. So I could avoid her questions, She asks too many questions. The whole drive back home she kept staring at me. As if she was trying to read me. She is sure a bold women!

INAYA

After what happened today, I definitely understood that Yasin is hiding something and I was curious so I told myself I would find whatever he was hiding. Somehow the way he said better keep your hands and eyes away from my wife made me blush. Ya Allah what's wrong with me, I should not be thinking about him? I tried to sleep tossing and turning but I kept thinking about what he said, I can't be so easy to fall but Daam he is so Handsome!

I was sleeping and then suddenly the lights were gone and I got scared. I was feeling like there is someone in my room. I took the bottle besides me and kept it close to my chest and I saw someone was walking close to me. I closed my eyes and started hitting the person in front of me with the bottle.

He holded my hand and I started screaming Yasin!! Yasin!! and dint stop hitting him.

Stop hitting me! It's just me Open your eyes, I'm Yasin. Look the lights are back.

Ya Allah, I'm so sorry! I just thought it's thief or something, I said feeling guilty.

Your such a baby.. You don't even hit that hard, he teased.

I'm not a baby! What are you doing in my room? I asked annoyed.

The lights were off, So I thought you would be scared and you don't sleep without lights right?! He asked.

Yeahh! I said then he said good night and he left.

I went to bed and then I thought, Wait! How did he know I don't sleep without lights? I better go ask to him directly I thought and walked to his room or maybe is it just my excuse to spend some more time with him? No Inaya your just going so you can clarify things.. It's nothing wrong.. I told myself!!
