Hoorain was hurriedly walking towards her class, while searching for her icard in her handbag. She didn't noticed a person coming from opposite side and bumped into him

"Ouch!" Hoorain mumbled as she held her forehead

"I'm really sorry, Hoori, are you okay?" A masculine voice startled her. Hoorain rasied her head to look at the person who bumped into her

She was met with a familiar face which she has saw many times with Zaryab. He was Zaryab's best friend, Shaqib

"My name is Hoorain." Taking her hand off from her forehead, Hoorain straighten up her posture and said

"I'm... Sorry.. actually Zaryab also calls you Hoori so..."

"Zaryab is my cousin." Hoorain interrupted him

"And I'm no one." Shaqib was telling himself or asking her. Hoorain didn't know

"I didn't mean it like that. But people who are close to me calls me Hoori. Hope you understand." Smiling politely, Hoorain said

"I totally understand. And I hope in future we will be friends." Shaqib returned her smile into a charming one and said

"I'm getting late for my class." Nodding her head, Hoorain said

"Sure!" Shaqib moved from her way

"Zaryab, hum achhe dost haina." Shaqib sat beside Zaryab in canteen and said

(We are good friends, right?)

"Nahi!" Zaryab looked at him weirdly and refused

(No!)

"Hum college ke pehle din se sath haina." Shaqib again said

(We are together since first day of college.)

"Haan toh?"

(Yes, so?)

"Yaar, tumhari mangi toh tay hogayi, woh bhi ussey jissey tum pasand karte ho toh.. meri bhi thodi setting karwa do..."

(Dude, you are getting engaged to the person whom you like. Can you fix my relationship too?)

"Marriage bureau nahi khola hai maine."

(Do I look like a Cupid to you?)

"Dost ke liye itna nahi kar sakte? Aur waise bhi tumhe hume sirf introduce karwana Hai. Baki main sambhal lunga."

(Can't you be one for your friend? You just have to introduce us. I'll manage it her things.)

"Matlab tumhe ladki already pasand Hai? Who is she?" When Shaqib nod his head on Zaryab's first question. Zaryab excitedly asked. Wanting to know whom does his friend likes

(Which means you have liked a girl for yourself?)

"Your cousin.... Hoorain." Shy smile was on Shaqib's face as he replied which instantly removed Zaryab's cheerful mood

"Dimag toh theek Hai tumhara? Hoorain cousin Hai Meri. How can you think about her like that?"

(Have you lost your mind? Hoorain is my cousin.)

"Why are you getting angry? I know she is your cousin and believe me, the feelings I have for her are genuine." Shaqib wasn't excepting this reaction from Zaryab

"She is very young. It is better for you to forget her."

"She is in same year as Anabia. Yet you are getting engaged to Anabia. What's wrong if I like Hoorain and wants to marry her? Why are you getting possessive?" Shaqib's questions silenced Zaryab who didn't had any answer.
