Chap 18 Slowly Embracing Each Other
Around nine o clock Shees grabbed Emaan's hand and took her to the roof top.
Emaan was astonished by the view. Shees sudeenly spoke up.
Emaan have you ever loved someone?
Shees asked with so many emotions.
Yes, my mom and dad. Emaan said it without looking at Shees. And Shees face palmed himself in the head.
No, I am asking about other than your parents. Shees repeat himself again.
Emaan thought for a while and then said:
" My friends. They are my life. And I miss them a lot". Emaan said it while making a pout.
Shees thought, how this girl just killed the mood of romance without knowing it. He shook his head and chuckled.
Emaan looked towards him in confusion.
Why are you laughing? I didn't say anything wrong, did I? I really love them a lot. Emaan gave him her genuine smile.
Shees gave back her smile but it vanished all of a sudden.
He stepped closer towards her with a serious face. Emaan got startled.
He covered Emaan's ears with both of his hands.
Emaan's heart beat went wild. Her face was beetroot red.
W-What are you doing Shees? Emaan stuttered.
Shhh! You trust me right. Don't move. Shees serious voice was giving shiver to her spine.
Emaan nodded frantically.
Now listen to me calmly. There is a bat behind you. So don't shou...
Just hearing the word " BAT" Emaan started to shout. She grabbed Shees collar and stuffed her face into his chest.
Shees thought his eardrum would explode.
Emaan! Emaan! I was joking. It was just a joke. A joke. Please stop shouting. Shees said loudly.
He didn't know his joke will backfired.
Emaan looked up with teary eyes.
You idiot, you nearly gave me a heart attack. Emaan slapped Shees shoulder lightly. She was shivering.
Shees felt bad but he didn't know why whenever he was with Emaan his childish nature came out. For the past ten years, he has been stuck with his ruthless billionaire image, but with Emaan he became someone who he used to be before the accident.
Emaan walked towards the door fiercely when Shees grabbed her wrist softly.
Don't touch me. Emaan slapped his hand.
I am sorry Emaan. I was just trying to light up the mood. I promise i will try not to prank you again. Shees showed Emaan his puppy eyes.
I am believing on you this time, so don't go back on your words okay.
Emaan and Shees sat on the bed when Shees spoke up.
Do you know Emaan, you are my first female friend. Besides Aliyan, I don't have any friends. Shees said it sincerely.
Oh really, but i heard someone saying that he dated lots of girls before. Emaan said it sarcastically but she forgot who she was talking to. Shees snapped back.
Oh, so someone was eavesdropping from the bathroom at that time.
Emaan could see that she was caught off-guard.
I-I didn't eavesdrop, it's just that you guys were very loud. Emaan said a lil loud.
Maybe I was but still it's not good manners to listen's someone else's conversation without their permission. Shees wanted to tease her more.
Well it was not some kind of secret mission that you couldn't disclose to anyone. It was about some stupid girls you dated. Emaan rolled her eyes.
Someone is jealous. Shees teased her.
Huh! I am not jealous of those stupid girls.
Well that's what I am saying, why would you be jealous over something that happened in the past? Shees acted as innocent as he could.
Emaan slowly understand that he was teasing her so an idea came into her mind.
Yes, I just pity them. They could have chosen a better person than you. Emaan laughed evilly inside but showed him disapproval face.
Why? Why? Why? What's so wrong with me? I am handsome, rich and young. I have everything that girls want. Shees was ready for the battle.
Let me tell you the answers to your three "Why's"
First you are childish
Second you are very childish
And third you are very very very childish.
Well that's true I am a lil childish.
Not a lil, from head to toe you are childish.
Both chuckled.
They both spend the night talking about each other. Around 3 o clock they went to their rooms.

Shees POV
After saying bye to Emaan, I went towards my room to sleep.
It's true that I didn't want her to leave the rooftop and wanted to stay with me but she was yawning continuously. So I told her that I was sleepy.
I was also tired but it was worth it. Spending time with Emaan was so much fun. I can feel that I am coming out of my shell that I created after the accident.
I opened the door of my room and saw darkness all around. And then reality hit me hard. All of my life I have been living in the dark. Emaan is becoming a light for me. A smile appeared on my face.
I made a resolution at that time that I will never go back to the darkness. I will get Emaan in my life. She is the only light that i want in my life now.
I went inside without opening the light and threw my shirt on the couch that I was wearing. I lay down on the bed on my tummy.
I saw the time on my Apple watch before putting it on the side table.
Wah! It 3:30AM. I should better sleep now. I mumbled to myself.
Soon i was in my dreamland. I saw Emaan in my kitchen trying to make different dishes for me. She tied her hair in a loose bun and was wearing a pink apron which really looked beautiful on her.
I heard someone calling me daddy behind me. I looked around and saw a tiny lil cute baby girl running towards me shaking her long dark brown hair.
She wrapped her small arms around my legs. I took her in my hands and gave that lil pumpkin a tight hug. I pinched her cute chubby cheeks.
I can't believe that I am father of this cute lil girl pumpkin.
She pointed towards Emaan and said:
Daddy didn't Mommy look pretty. She is the most beautiful mommy in the world.
Emaan heard her and smiled. She started giggling when I tickled her. In our father-daughter time Emaan called me. I was going towards her when I heard a knock on a door.
I shot my eyes open and looked around. It was a dream. I can't believe that I was dreaming a family with Emaan. A silly smile appeared on my face.
Someone knocked on the door fiercely this time. I looked towards the clock. It was 4:30AM.
I looked towards the door in anger because that person is now slam-banging on my door and also pop my best dream.
Whoever you are if you don't have a valid reason to wake me up istg i will make your life hell. And believe me, I mean it. I said loudly and opened the door.
Someone shouted loudly, which startled me.
What are you doing here Emaan? I was shocked to see her.
Cover yourself first you Idiot. She said it while covering her eyes.
I looked down and saw i was standing shirtless. A cheeky smile came on my face.
Why are you covering your face Emaan? Haven't you seen a handsome body before? I wanted to tease her.
If you don't want to go back to the hospital on the stretcher, then wear your shirt. There was a warning in her tone.
Okay madam. I grabbed my shirt from the couch while laughing. I wore it and then stood in front of her.
Now, will you mind if I ask you what you are doing here at 4 in the morning? You are not here because you miss me, right. Because 1 hour before we were together.
I asked her genuinely.
You and your extraordinary mind. How could I expect a non serious answer from you? I could feel the sarcasm in it.
I am here because of my bucket list. We will pray for five times together. Remember Mr Idiot.
So you mean that I have to get up this much early. I practically shouted.
I can't believe that I agreed to do this. I have an insomnia for the last 10 years. I usually sleep around this time, but she wants me to pray.
Can we start it tomorrow Emaan? I am really sleepy. I showed her my puppy eyes but it didn't work on her.
She grabbed my hand and dragged me towards the washroom. I went into the washroom and looked towards her with a sulky face.
Are you doing yourself or should I come and do it for you? She put her hands on the hip and said it with a tinge of anger in her voice.
Okay, I am doing it. I pushed my messy hair back while saying it.
I am giving you 10 mins, in 10 mins be in my room or else I won't speak to you ever. I heard a fainting sound.
While performing wudhu I wonder when I even listened to someone so obediently.
And I started laughing because this never happens to me. I was always the one who gives orders to others but now I like to get orders from Emaan.
Exactly in 10 mins i was in her room. I saw her standing on musalah. Her face in hijab was glowing like there was light coming behind her head.
I didn't know i was staring her for so long until she called me out.
Stop staring me Shees, it's creepy.
I rubbed the back of my head nervously.
We prayed our Fajr prayer together.
She raised my hands up like her and said:
Ask anything from Allah. HE is listening to you right now. I could see her eyes shining.
Emaan started her dua but I sat there without doing anything. I don't know what to ask.
I closed my eyes and saw my parents smiling at me.
When I opened my eyes again I saw Emaan staring at me with an unreadable expression.
I wiggled my eyebrows with a fake smile.
You looked broken Shees. On hearing this i felt like she just look through me.
She wiped my tears that I didn't even know was cascading. I grabbed her hand tightly and turned my face in the opposite direction.
Stop Emaan! Just stop. I am done with this. I am going back to sleep. I jerked her hand harshly and went out of the room.

Emaan POV
I was continuously yawning on the rooftop. I guess I was tired because last night i was not able to sleep much because of Shees health.
When Shees told me that he was tired, I felt like he heard my inner voice.
We went down. Shees said bye to me and walked towards his room.
I was feeling sleepy but i had to offer my Isha prayer. After doing it, I went straight up to my bed. I set the alarm on my side clock and put the quilt on me. I didn't know when did I fall asleep.
I was in the kitchen trying to make different dishes for someone. My hair was tied in a loose bun and some strands were falling out of it.
I heard a baby girl voice calling Shees daddy. Yes Shees was standing there in his white office shirt with a black dress pants. He looked so breathtaking in formal attire.
I saw that tiny lil cute baby girl running towards Shees shaking her long dark brown hair.
She looked exactly like Shees but the eye color was mine. She wrapped her small arms around his legs. He took her in his hands and gave that lil pumpkin a tight hug. He pinched her cute chubby cheeks.
She pointed towards me and said:
Daddy didn't Mommy looks pretty. She is the most beautiful mommy in the world. I smiled frantically.
She started giggling when Shees tickled her. In their father-daughter time I called him to help me.
I heard my alarm shouting the hell out of it. My eyes shot open.
Wait was it a dream? I sat up and pushed my hair back. I was sitting on my bed flabbergasted.
I should stop hanging out with Shees. I shook my head to throw away all these weird dreams. I stood up to wash my teeth and face.
After performing wudhu, I put a lil drop of my BB cream on my hand and smashed it on my face.
I know people would think that this was not the right way to put the cream, but that's how I do it when I am in a hurry.
I reached at the Shees door and started to knock. I even called out his name, but still no answer. I was consistently knocking at the door for 5 mins but this guy was sleeping so soundly that he didn't even bother getting up. He was sleeping in a log.
I felt more angry as time passed. I started to slamming my hand on the door more fiercely. And then I heard his angry voice.
Whoever you are if you don't have a valid reason to wake me up istg i will make your life hell. And believe me, I mean it. He shouted loudly and opened the door fiercly.
I was smiling before he opened the door. But when I saw him shirtless, I shouted loudly and covered my eyes.
He was startled. I thought to myself why this idot is in this state.
I peeked through my fingers to see if he was wearing his shirt or not but saw his cheeky smile.
I knew something stupid would only come out of his mouth.
Why are you covering your face Emaan? Haven't you seen a handsome body before?
And he did exactly the same as I thought. I rolled my eyes behind my hands.
If you don't want to go back to the hospital on the stretcher, then wear your shirt. I said in a warning tone and I think he understood what I said.
Okay madam. I heard him say it. He ran back into his room and back with a shirt on his body. He stood in front of me.
Now, will you mind if I ask you what you are doing here at 4 in the morning? You are not here because you miss me, right. Because 1 hour before we were together.
And here we go again. I wonder where these weird thoughts came into his mind.
You and your extraordinary mind. How could I expect a non serious answer from you? I said sarcastically.
I am here because of my bucket list. We will pray for five times together. Remember Mr Idiot. I stressed on the word IDIOT more.
So you mean that I have to get up this much early. He didn't know he shouted that line.
I put my hands on my ear.
Can we start it tomorrow Emaan? I am really sleepy. He showed me his puppy eyes.
I laughed inwardly because he looked so cute. He looked like a baby who started praying for the first time. But I can't let him slack off because he started so late.
I grabbed his hand and dragged him towards the washroom. He went into the washroom and looked towards me with a sulky face.
I really wanted to pat and pinch his cheeks.
Wait what I am thinking? Emaan you must have lost your mind. I shook my head and said:
You are doing yourself or should I come and do it for you? I put my hands on the hip and said it with a tinge of anger in my voice.
Okay, I am doing it. He pushed his messy hair back while saying it.
I looked towards his sharp jawline then back to his brown hair. I thought about whether I could touch it.
Allah Allah, Emaan get yourself together. What were you thinking? You should spend less time with Shees. My face was beetroot red. Thankfully Shees didn't see it.
I am giving you 10 mins, in 10 mins be in my room or else I won't speak to you ever. I ran out of his room while saying it.
Exactly in 10 mins he was in my room. I was settling my hijab when i saw Shees standing at my door. The black shirt was stuck on his six pack body. It was complementing his broad shoulder as well.
Suddenly, I felt hot. I started fanning myself. Wait, What am I doing? I am ogling over his body. Why are you becoming idiot like him Emaan? I thought to myself.
I gave him an angry look and tried to calm myself down.
Stop staring me Shees, it's creepy.
He rubbed the back of his head nervously.
He came inside and stood on musalah next to me.
We prayed our Fajr prayer together. I raised his hands up like mine and said:
Ask anything from Allah. HE is listening to you right now.
I felt proud that I was helping him with knowing Islam. I started my dua but I felt like he was confused.
He looked towards me for some time. I could feel his eyes on me. I opened my eyes when I heard slow sobs.
I looked towards Shees and was shocked.
He was crying. A big man like him was crying. He opened his eyes and looked towards me. He was trying to read my expressions.
He wiggled his eyebrows with a fake smile. I could tell by just looking that he was hiding the broken piece inside him.
You looked broken Shees.
In a stance, I brought my hands up towards him and wiped away his tears. I came into reality when he grabbed my hand tightly and turned his face away.
I could feel that he was shocked to see himself crying.
Stop Emaan! Just stop. I am done with this. I am going back to sleep. He jerked my hand harshly and went out of the room.
I could tell that he is broken and he thinks that no one can fix those pieces.
But to me, the definition of the word "Broken" is that something can be fixed.
Okay so this is my first time trying POV. I hope you guys like it a lot. Tomorrow is my paper so I won't upload two chaps. I mixed my two chaps in one. Vote and comment what you like about it. Bye cuties ❤
