"Aap breakfast kyu nahi kar rahi hai?" Anam asked Anabia as she was staring at her plate.
(Why you are not having breakfast)
Anam and her family arrived in the morning. And now Anam and Anabia were having breakfast.
"Hame bhook nahi hai," Anabia said as her appetite was full after having a toasted bread.
(I am not hungry)
"Koi nahi. Juice pi lijiye. Shahzain bhai hame keh kar gaye hai ke aapko acche se nashta karwaye," Anam said pouring the juice for her.
(It's okay. Have a juice. Shahzain bhai told me to give you breakfast)
"Shahzain? Aap unse kab mili?" Anabia asked with curiosity.
(When did you meet him)
"Ham aapko batana bhul gaye hai. Bhai tou subah hi office chale gaye. Bohot urgent meeting thi. Aap so rahi thi tou aapko uthaana sahi nahi samjhe," Anam said to which she nodded her
(I forgot to tell you. Bhai had already gone to the office in the morning. It was an urgent meeting. You were sleeping. So he doesn't wake you up)
"Aap raat mai bhai ke saath so rahi thi?" Anam asked in a mischievous tone.
(You were sleeping in bhai room)
Anabia choked on the juice and coughed out loudly. Her cheeks turn beetroot red as she remembered the last night.
" Ab hame malum pada ki kyu aap ne wedding attend nahi ki. Mauke ka faida uthaana chahti thi na aap," Anam said mischievously wiggling her eyebrows.
(Now I came to know why you didn't attend the wedding. You want to take the advantage of the situation)
"Bohot fuzool baatein karti hai aap. Ham dono ne aisa kuch nahi kiya. Ham shahzain ke room mai isliye so rahe the kyunki unko dar lag raha tha," Anabia lied smoothly to which Anam felt unsatisfied with her answer.
(You talk rubbish. We didn't do anything. I sleep in shahzain room because he was feeling scared)
"Wo tou hame pata hi chal raha hai. Rehne de. Aap jake ready ho Jaye. Aapki college ka time hogaya hai," Anam said pointing at her neck.
(Well, I know happened. Leave it. Just get ready. It time to go for college)
Anabia nodded her head and went to her room. She changed into a chikankari gota work white kurti with denim jeans. She was brushing her brown silky hair when her gaze went to the brown marks on her neck.
Her eyes went wide and a gasp escaped her lips. She runs her index finger on the mark as the crimson color covered her cheeks. She was feeling embarrassed to face anyone. She realized what Anam meant.
Anabia applied concealer on the marks properly. She took a relieved sigh as the marks were concealed properly. She took out her chiffon white dupatta from the wardrobe and put it around her neck properly.

It was her last lecture and in few days it will be her farewell party. Anabia was in the college canteen with her friend, Amir.
"Kya khaoge tum?" Anabia asked him.
(What you will have)
"Tum party de rahi ho?" Amir asked with a baffled expression.
(Are you giving us a party)
"Zahir hai. Tumhe ek khush khabar sunaani hai," Anabia said in an excited tone.
"Mere liye ek masala dosa aur cheese pav bhaji," Amir said making her eyes widen. She was amazed by how big his appetite is.
(I will have one masala dosa and a cheese pav bhaji)
"Hamare liye ek milkshake," Anabia said as they placed an order.
(I will have a milkshake)
"Tou maine tumhe batane tha ki mera nikah ho gaya," Anabia said making his eyes widen.
(I want to tell you that my nikah is already done)
"Shahzain bhai se?" Amir asked to confirm.
(To shahzain bhai)
"Tumhe kese pata?" Anabia asked narrowing her eyes.
(How do you know)
"Zahir hai. Wo tumhe kisi aur ke saath dekh hi nahi sakte. Wo toh mujhe tum par nazar rakhne ke liye bhi kaha tha," Amir said making her heart skips a beat.
(It's obvious. He can't see you with anyone else. He even told you to keep an eye on you)
"Ek minute- shahzain ne tumhe aisa kaha tha," Anabia asked controlling her anger.
(One minute- did shahzain told you to keep an eye on me)
"Tum ho hi bewakoof. Unhe tumhaari bohot fikr hoti hai ke tum naadani mai kuch galat kaam na kar baitho," Amir said with making Anabia hit his arm.
(You are so foolish. Shahzain cares about you. He doesn't want you to do something out of your innocence)
"Bewakoof kise kaha tumne? Khud ki shakl dekhi hai. Ek number ke paagal dikhte ho," Anabia snapped angrily.
(Who you said foolish? Have you seen your face? You seem to be a mad person)
"Anabia meri dost. Sachai ko accept karna seekho. Zindagi sawar jayegi tumhari," Amir said in a calm tone.
(Anabia, my friend. Learn to accept the truth. Your life will be bliss)
"Bhaad mai jao tum," Anabia said angrily while taking her bag from the table.
(Go to hell)
"Anabia, bill toh pay karke jao," Amir said to which Anabia ignored him.
(At least pay the bill)
Anabia angrily marched towards the car. She sat in the car and the driver looks at her from the rearview mirror.
"Hame shahzain ke office le kar chale," Anabia said to the driver as she sat on the back seat.
(Drive me to shahzain office)
Anabia was angry at him. The thing that hurt her is he doesn't believe her. She has already told him many times that she doesn't need any security around her. When she was in the first year, everyone used to bother her by proving how weak she is. Anabia told him about it and he promised her that he will remove the security from around her. But shahzain broke his promise.
As soon as she reached his office, Anabia bump into one of the colleagues.
"Aap theek hai?" A man in his late twenties asked Anabia.
(Are you fine)
She nodded fixing her hair.
"Ham theek hai. Asal mai hame shahzain se milna tha," Anabia said fixing her hair.
(I am fine. Actually, I want to meet shahzain)
"Aap unke ghar se hai?" He asked to which Anabia nodded her head.
(Are you his family members)
"Actually, sir bohot busy hai iss waqt. Aap waiting room mai wait kar sakti hai. Mai aapke liye coffee bhejwa deta hu," He said politely.
(Sir is very busy at this time. You can wait in the waiting room. I will send a coffee for you)
"Arre nahi - " Anabia was about to say something when he interrupted.
(No--)
"Coffee toh leni padegi," He insists to which she smacked her forehead.
(You must have coffee)
"Actually, Hame coffee nahi falooda chahiye," Anabia said in a hesitant tone to which he awkwardly nodded his head.
(I want falooda, not coffee)
"Aapne apna naam nahi bataya?" Anabia asked in a curious tone.
(You didn't tell me your name)
"Asim," He said.
"I am Anabia," she said with a smile.
As he went away, Anabia sat on the chair. She was very nervous as she was about to meet him. What if he will be angry with her, she thought.

Shahzain was at his office working on some files. His mind drifted to his wife. Yesterday night was the best thing that ever happens in his life. He was thinking that what if his wife has planned another surprise for him tonight.
Shahzain took out the velvet box from his drawer. He thought of surprising Anabia today with a gift.
Shahzain gaze went to his laptop where all his CCTV recordings can be seen. He saw a lady sitting in the waiting room and he instantly recognized her.
Shahzain went towards the waiting rook when he heard a voice.
"Aap bohot acche insaan hai," Shahzain heard Anabia voice which makes him clench his fist.
(You are a very good person)
"Kya ho raha hai yaha," Shahzain said in a cold tone making both of them startled.
(What's going on here)
"Actually, ham aapse milne aaye the. Aap bohot busy the iss wajah se ham yaha par aapka wait kar rahe the" Anabia said quickly defending Asim.
(I came here to meet you. But you were so busy. I was waiting for you here)
Shahzain pulled Anabia her waist making her collided with his chest.
Anabia cheeks were covered with crimson color because of the proximity.
"Public place hai ye. Kahi bhi shuru ho jate hai," Anabia whispered in his ear to which shahzain ignores her.
(It's a public place. You start anywhere you want )
Shahzain eyes were blazing with fire as he was glaring at Asim.
"I want F.K enterprise files on my desk in an hour and you have better have completed the presentation," Shahzain said as his jaw ticked.
Asim nodded his head meekly and moved away from there as fast as he can.
Shahzain entwined his fingers with Anabia lead her to his office. He locked the door and pinned her to the wall.
"Yaha par tou shuru ho sakta hu na? Yaha par tou koi nahi hai," Shahzain said in his deep voice while kissing her earlobes sensuously.
(Can I start here. There's no one here)
"Koi aa jayega,"Â Anabia as her breathing becomes uneven.
(Someone will come)
"No one will dare to," Shahzain said and crashed his lips on her. Anabia moaned as he sucked her lower lips while kissing her angrily.
Shahzain pulled away as they both were breathing heavily. He put his forehead on her while brushing his fingers on her delicate cheeks.
"You make me lose control. God, you are so irresistible. I can't even concentrate on anything except you. You are so beautiful," Shahzain said looking at her with desirous eyes.
"Burai kar rahe hai ya taarif. Samajh nahi aa raha hai," Anabia said narrowing his eyes at him to which he chuckles.
Shahzain loosened his tie and turned towards her.
"Kuch kaam tha?" Shahzain asked as he was surprised by her sudden visit.
(Why are you here)
"Aapne hamare sab friends se kaha tha ham pe nazar rakhne ke liye?" Anabia asked putting her hands on her waist.
(Did you told my friends to keep an eye on me)
Shahzain let out an exasperated sigh and looked at her.
"Haa. Kaha tha. Even there is some security around you," Shahzain said looking at her with confidence.
(Yes. I told them)
"Aapne hamse waada kiya tha. Aapko ham par zara sa bhi aitbaar nahi hai," Anabia said looking at him with a soft gaze.
(You promised me. Don't you have faith in me)
"Aitbaar ki baat nahi hai Anabia. Bas tumhari fikr hoti," Shahzain in a soft tone.
(It's not about trust. I am worried about you)
It wasn't anyone's fault. Anabia was lost once when she was young. no one was able to find her for two good days. Shahzain was so worried about her. Police somehow find her. From that day, shahzain make sure that she won't go anywhere on her own.
But Anabia was being too immature to understand him.
"Hamne kaha hai aapko hamari fikr karne ke liye. Aap hamesha aisa karte. Mat kariye hamari fikr. Ham aapna khayaal rakh sakte hai," Anabia said angrily.
(Did I told you to care about me? You always do that. Don't care about me. I can take care of myself)
At that moment, she knew she messed up. Shahzain jaw clenched as his stare right into her eyes which send shivers ran down her back.
***
How's the chapter?
A little sneak peek:
"TayAmmi, ham aapse kuch puchh sakte?" Anabia asked in a curious tone.
(Can I ask you something)
Her TayAmmi nodded her head while looking at her.
"Jab Taya Abu aapse naraz ho jaate hai, toh aap unhe kese manati thi? " Anabia asked putting her hand on her chin. Her question makes her TayAmmi embarrassed as she was thinking how could she answer it.
(When Tay Abbu get angry then how used to cheer him up)
