After her disappearance he took deep breath and sat down on sofa with his head low.

She also sighed and went her room for second to take something.

When she returned he was lost somewhere that he didn't notice when she sat on her knees in front him.

"Kaashif!" She called out to get his attention.

"You also have to say something to me." He tiredly asked.

"Ya..." she replied while looking at him.

"So just say na. What are you waiting for? If she said why would you stay left." He mocked at her while staring directly in her eyes.

"Thank you so much for today." She said while making him shocked on it.

"Now let me clean your wound." Saying she took his hand and started wiped blood from it.

He just looked at her in amaze.

"It will hurt little. Please bear it." Saying she applied ointment on the wound.

She slowly blow on there so it didn't hurt him more.

But he was too much busy in staring at her than feel the pain of it.

She finally dress the wound of his hand.

"Finally done." She said and left his hand.

"You are okay?" He asked in concern.

"Ya I am okay." She said while getting up from floor.

"I am going to prepare dinner.." Saying she about to left from there but he hold her wrist to stop her.

Making her heartbeats fast on his mere touch.

"You didn't get hurt anywhere right?" He asked while searching any wound on her body.

"No. I am perfectly fine." She said in low voice. While looking at anywhere but him.

On it he just nodded his head and left her wrist.

"Dinner is ready." She said to him who was just changing channels on tv.

"Okay. Let's go." Saying he turned off tv. And stood up.

"But where is Abba?" She asked as they settled down on the chairs.

"I don't know. He must be went to his friend." He was guessing.

"Let's start to eat. He will join us." He said after second.

"No! Let's Just wait for him." She suggested.

"Okay.. if you want." He agreed.

They just sat in silence for sometime.

"You don't cry anymore."On his voice her eyes went to him who was already looking at her.

"Why?" She confusely but inquired it.

"Because when you cry you look like monkey." He said while teasing smile spread on his face.

It took minute for her to understand what he said.

"What?" Saying she stood up.

She thought he will say something romantic words to her but he was making fun of her.

"Ya. You really look like one." He again said and stood up.

"Kaashif! I am not going to leave you today." She angrily said and went towards him. But he was fast enough to move away from her.

"But first catch me. After talk about leaving me." He added fuel in her anger.

"Just wait till I catch you." She challenged at him. It was que for him started to run.

He was running and she was running behind him to catch him. But he was fast.

They were running in all room.

"Kaashif! Stop now." She said feeling out of the breath.

"Why? Got tired huh?" He mocked at her.

"No." She angrily said. Not wanting to accept her lose.

"So Cath me na." Saying he again ran away from him.

They were running every where like Tom and Jerry.

In all mean time Abbas Ali entered in house and saw them happily enjoying their time.

He can't help but smile on their childish behavior.

He felt relief finaly seeing some progress in their relationship.

"Abba! Save me from her." Kaashif stood behind him. Trying protect himself from her.

"No Abba! Don't." Saying she came front of him and trying to catch him.

"One minute! First tell me what happened? Why are you both running like this?" He confusely asked them.

"Actually Abba! I told her when ever she cry. She looks like monkey." Kaashif said him reason.

"See Abba! How can he say that?" She complained him like child.

"Kaashif come forward." He ordered him. Who looked at her.

Daanya was giving him look like 'now you watch'.

"How can you say it to her? She doesn't look like monkey after she cried but joker." He started with serious tone but in end jokingly told her.

"See!......" She first started but then realized what he said.

"Abba! you also taking his side. I am your daughter. You should take my side." She whined.

"Okay....ok. now on serious note. Kaashif apologize to her. " he ordered him.

"Sorry! Now happy?" He said to her who childishly show her tongue at him.

He just smiley shook his head on her immature behavior.

"Now you both stop and let's go to have dinner." He said and went ahead.

They both followed behind him.

Few minutes later they were having dinner on table.

"I forgot. I was about to left then Haya came to house. You both met her right?" He asked them.

On this question they both looked at each other for second.

"Yes Abba. She came to pick up hina." She replied him.

"Oh... okay." Saying he continued with the dinner.

After dinner they called it night and went to sleep.

...................................................

Next morning She hurriedly got ready for office.

She made lunch and took her purse from table.

"I am going." She informed him who was sitting on the sofa.

"Let's go. I drop you." Saying he stood up.

"No. You hand is hurt. So you take rest. I will take a bus today." She said to him. Who just looked at her for minute.

"I am waiting outside for you. Just come." Saying he went out leaving her with no option but listen him.

.................................

Like that he was continued to drop and pick her up from office like before.

Days were passing. With every passing day they were coming close to each other.

Now they were talked like friends and spend time with each other.

In passing days they didn't heard anything from Haya. Like she disappeared from their lives for good.

It was Sunday. In the evening they were sitting sofa and watching tv.

But she was not very interested in it. Her mind roaming somewhere.

"You should have explained to her." She mumbled. But he heard her.

"What?" He confusely asked her.

"If you had explained to her than she let hina come to our house." She told him.

"I don't need to explain anything to anyone. I had done what I wanted that time. Why would I explained to her all. I don't owe any explanation to her." He straightly and sternly told her his point.

"But I am missing hina. She always spend Sunday here with us." She sadly told him.

"She doesn't want to send her here. I can't do anything about it." He said to her who silently sat with her head low.

"Go get ready!" He said after moment.

"Why? We are going to meet her?" She asked with hopeful eyes.

"No. We are going out for dinner." He told her while making sad and also happy at same time.

Sad because they are not going to meet her.

Happy because he was taking her out for dinner.

"Ok. But let's take Abba with us." Saying she went away from him.

Before he refused or say anything she entered in his room.

"Abba! Let's go out for dinner," she excitedely said him.

"No beta. You both go. I am not feeling well." He declined it.

"What happened? We are not going anymore." Saying she sat down on his bed.

"No. You both go and enjoy. I just need some rest. After I will get fine." He said.

"No Abba...." She again started.

"Kaashif! Take her from here." He said to his son.

"But Abba call us if anything happens." She said and get up.

"Ok baba, just go." He said to her who nodded and they both left.

Half an hour getting ready in pink dress with light make up she came out of her room.

"Ready?" He asked when she came to him.

"Ya..." she nodded at him.

"Let's go." Saying he went ahead.

She thought he will say something about how she looks or anything but he didn't say a word or compliment to her.

She sighed thinking how his behavior was. And with sad face she akso went out.

...........................................

An hour later they were sitting in restaurant.

He took her the same restaurant where they came other day with haya's family.

They ordered their dinner. Just waiting for it to come.

She was busy in thought. When she heard someone called her.

She was looking here and there to search the owner of voice. But didn't find anyone.

"Daanya!" On his voice she turned to him.

"Ya..." she replied.

"Whom are you searching?" He asked her.

"No one just.." her replied made him confused.

After few minutes she again heard some voice.

"Auntie!" Now voice was clear and loud. Her head snapped direction of the voice.

There Hina was waving at her. She also waved at her in return.

She was sitting with her parents. She was about stood up to go there.

"Don't even try to go there." He warned her. Who got sad on it.

"But why?" She asked him.

"You didn't heard what she said that day. After listening all that rubbish you want to go there?" He angrily asked her.

Which made her silent.

In mean time their ordered came.

He started to eat but she just sat there.

"What are you waiting for?" He coldly asked her. Making her flinched on it.

Seeing it he took deep breath calm him self.

"Daanya. Please start to eat." He said but more like ordered her.

She silently started to have dinner.

After they didn't talk for minute just eat their dinner.

Finishing the dinner he paid the bill.

After in silence they took journey to their house.

...........................................

Two day passed since that day.

In morning they were having breakfast on dinning table.

When bell rang. She went to open it.

They both continued with their breakfast.

Moment later she returned with someone.

"Haya! Sit na have breakfast with us." She offered her.

"No thanks. I already had it." She declined.

"At least take sit." His father said and get up.

"Sorry beta. I am getting late. So I have to go." He told her.

"No problem. You go ahead." She said. After he left out.

"Let's go talk in sitting room." Saying she took her there.

They settled down on sofa.

"Actually I wan..." she started but he cut her off.

"Daanya! I am also going. Just call me when you are ready." He told her.

"Ok. I.." She was saying but stopped on her voice.

"Kaashif! I just came talk to you." She said looking at him who was ignoring her.

"I don't think we have anything to talk anymore." He coldly said.

"Please five minutes." She requested.

"No. I a...." He was going to refuse but his eyes met with his wife. Who was pleading him to listen her at least.

He took deep breath and took sit on across to them.

"Ok say." He agreed to listen her.

"I am really sorry about that day. Next day Hina told me what happened. I was ashamed to face you. But I am really sorry. Please forgive me I really said very harsh to both of you. Please Daanya forgive me for my behavior of that day." She apologized to them.

"No. Haya. Don't say sorry anymore. I forgive you. I know you were worried about hina. That why words left your mouth." She said.

He shook his head on her.

How she can forgive her that easily. He thought.

"Ya... I just didn't mean it. So Kaashif please forgive me." She again apologized to him.

He look at her who was saying him to forgive her through her eyes.

"Ok.. I forgive you. " saying he stood up to leave.

"Really! Thank you. Thank you so much." Saying she went to hug him.

He just stood while she hugged him.

Daanya sighed and went her room to take her purse.

When she returned they stood beside each other.

"Let's go." He said. And she nodded at him.

"Ok. Bye. I am also going." Saying she went out.

After he dropped her to office like always.

.......................................

Five days later it was Saturday she has half day from office. She came home early at 3 in noon.

She directly went to her room to get some rest. She was hell tired today. She just wanted some time to sleep nothing more than that.

She was about to close her eyes when someone knocked at the door.

She was too much tired to say any replied. So she just lay there on the bed with close eyes.

"Daanya!" Someone called out.

She just hummed in return and opened her eyes.

When her eyes show him she fastly sat up straight and adjusted her duppatta.

"Y...you..... need anything?" She stammered feeling nervous all of sudden.

"I came to say. Haya called and asked if you want to join her for shopping." He stated.

She thought for minute.

"I have all things. I don't have anything buy from shops." She declined.

"You sure you don't need anything?" He again asked her.

"Ya. I am sure. I don't need anything. " she told him.

"Get ready at 5. We are going." He odered her and left her room.

She sighed and again lay down on the bed.

In next second she went to sleep.

When she opened her eyes. It was already 4:30.

She hurriedly left the bed and took shower.

She was getting ready in room.

In that mean time He went to his father's room. He was reading some book on the chair.

"Abba!" He said to get his attention.

"Yes. Why are you here? Don't you both going out today?" He inquired.

"Ya.. we are going. But I..." he felt hesitated to ask from him.

"Beta! Say na. What happened?" He confusely asked.

"Ac.... Actually I...i am ...taking her for shopping... so ..i need..." he stammered.

"So you need money right." He said understanding him and stood up to get his wallet.

He didn't say anything but just stood up there. He was ashamed to ask money from him.

In his age he would have give money to him but here he was asking from him.

" Here." Saying he put his wallet in his hand.

"But Abba! I ..." he was saying but he cut him off.

"Ya.. I know you don't need much money. But first time you are taking my daughter on shopping. So buy her all things which she needed. Don't left anything." He said to him with smile on his voice.

"Thank you, Abba." He said with little smile.

"Now go and enjoy." Saying he again took his seat. And kaasif went out of his room.

"Daanya!" He called out to her from sitting room.

"Five minutes.I just Come." She replied to him.

He silently sat down on sofa.

After five minutes she came.

" I am ready." She said while getting his attention.

He looked at her who wore white knee length dress with red leggings and duppatta.

" Ok. Let's go" he said and they went out of the house.

..............................................

An hour later they both entered in mall.

They met them at the entrance and said hello to each other.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go guys." Haya said loudly.

"Ya.. let's ready to get empty our wallets." Adam jokingly said to him.

Who just smiled on it.

They went to third floor on ladies section.

"I want to buy new jeans for myself and you want to try it?" Haya said as they enter in one of shops.

"No. I look for some dress." She replied looking at her.

"Okay. I am going to check it." Saying she went other side of shop.

Daanya was checking some dresses.

She took out blue dress from raw and kept on her body.

"Auntie you will look beautiful in it." On hina' s voice she looked down at her.

"You really think?" She asked while looking herself in mirror.

"Ya..." she happily told her. She checked the price of the dress. It was out of her budget.

"Let's check other dresses." Saying she kept it back.

In mean Kaashif was looking here and there in shop.

Not interested in the woman's shopping.

His eyes accidentally went to Haya and her husband.

She was selecting top for herself. He was hugging her from back. And time to time kissing her on cheeks.

Seeing their closeness he turned his head in other direction.

He sighed and went to her who was other side of shop.

When he reached there she was checking out some dresses.

"It will look good on you." He said while looking at her through out mirror.

"You really think?" She wasn't sure becuse she didn't wear green colour before.

"Ya..!" He honestly said. She looked at the price.

"No! Let me try some other dress." Saying she was about to hang it on self but he took it from her hand.

"Let's buy it." He said in final tone. So she didn't argue on it.

"Check other dresses also." He ordered her.

After she check all dress one by one and show him.

He finally select five dresses for her.

They went counter to pay for it.

She was about to took out money from her purse but his voice stopped her movement.

"I am paying for it." Saying he gave the money to sales man.

In mean time Haya and Adam also came to pay.

They finished with the bill.

"Let's go to man section." Adam said while they went out from shop.

"Okay." He agreed and all went there.

Adam and her went to suit section. Kaashif and Daanya was stood there in middle.

"Let's check some shirts for you." Saying she and hina went shirt section.

He followed her.

She chose three shirts and shaw him.

"What you think?" She hopefully asked.

"I don't need it." He declined her. Because he didn't have more money to buy it. He spent most of money on her dresses.

"But I think it will look good on you." She insisted him.

"Ok let's buy this shirt." He choose white shirt.

She in defeat shook her head at him and went counter to pay for it.

"Daanya! At least listen to me." Saying he followed her.

She took the bill and pay the money.

"You brought me dresses so I am buying shirts for you." She said while making him silent.

After few minutes they went out from the shop and went to child section.

From there Haya brought few things for hina.

After they decided to go food counter to eat something. They brought some snacks and juice. They settled down on the table.

They were eating snacks silently. But haya started with her talk.

"So you are doing job?" She asked.

"Ya." She replied.

"I am also helping him in business. Because of some project we came here leaving our home." She informed her.

"You don't live here?" She confusely asked.

"No. We properly live in London. It is temporary. I can't wait to finish this project so we can go home back." She told her.

"O...h.." this is what left her mouth.

"That's why for finish some work tomorrow we are going out of city for week." She informed her. Before she replied anything hina beat her in it.

"Mom! I don't want to go with you." She declined her.
