His Name Written

Haider had walked in with a satisfactory smile; His parents were surprised to see that. He had been a big mess for a while and they were completely helpless, the most he spoke was with his sister Sarah but even she did not know much, he was distant

"Haye, you look so handsome with that smile of yours and may god let no one take that away from you" said Sarah and he smiled at her dramatic sister.

"Sarah, at last you said something right" said Haider's mother and he nodded, His mother was relieved that he was in a good mood.

"Brother tell me something truthfully and remember that you'd have to take me out for ice cream if you lie and I find out as punishment for lying to an angel like me" said Sarah and Haider nodded

"Yes, my dearest Sarah, I'll take you out for ice cream anyway today if you are free" said Haider and Sarah's eyes sparkled

"Haider, there is some Turmeric on your shirt, tell me where is it from" asked Sarah with a questioning look, Haider looked at his shirt to find turmeric. He remembered Tehreem's face which had Turmeric so did her hands, He guessed it might have come from then

"Don't Think of a lie" said Sarah and brought him out of his thoughts

"I had gone to meet someone, and it was their Sister's Haldi, they had a bit of them, and it might have reached my shirt somehow" said Haider, Sarah looked at him with a questioning look and then nodded.

"As said, I'll take you out for Ice cream anyway because you are my annoying sister and I love you, let me change into a turmeric less Shirt and then we can go" said Haider and Sarah hugged her elder brother, Haider smiled and so did his parents.

"I have an assignment to submit, let's go tomorrow" said Sarah and Haider nodded, both walked to the lawn chatting

"I think he is feeling better, and that phase is completed, I miss my happy son and I wish I knew what happened with him but now he's feeling better" said Haider's mother

"Let's hope for the best and god will
make everything right, look he's already better and this hopefully will only get better" said Haider's dad

"I hope so" said Haider's mother.

Haider made Sarah sit and went to order, He stood in the Queue. He was going to order and that is when he saw a pair of familiar eyes standing next to him, she did not notice him yet, she kept her hand forward and that is when he notices, He smiled seeing it.

"A chocolate ice cream and Cookies and Cream ice cream please" said Haider and that is when she turned towards Him, He was surprised that she recognized his voice. She took the spoon and left.

Haider brought the Ice cream to Sarah, and She had a big smile on her face. Her brother taking out for ice cream after so long is a dream come true. What he saw a bit ago was still in his thoughts.

"Haider Brother, tell me one thing, why is this smile blooming on your face all of a sudden" asked Sarah

"Seeing you smile seeing the ice cream made me smile too" said Haider and Sarah gave him a questioning look, He gave her a nervous smile

"Sarah, you enjoy this ice cream and I'll be back in a few minutes; I have to make an important call and it's really noisy over here" said Haider and Sarah nodded.

He saw that eyes walking towards the dustbin to throw away the cup. He walked towards her, and Her eyes met his. She felt frozen seeing him again, she was trying to get out of there as soon as possible but that did not happen.

"Hello Tehreem, Missed me" asked Haider

"Of course not, I obviously have better things to do and Missing you wouldn't be even on that list" said Tehreem with a bit of Confidence

"Keep saying that, maybe you missed me so much that you got my name written on your hand with Mehendi" said Haider and She hid her hand.

"There is no need of hiding, I saw my name on your hand clear when you asked for tissues, it didn't take much time noticing my name, I didn't know that you missed me this much, this is so much more than my expectation," said Haider

Tehreem's cheek was red in embarrassment, Haider could not stop himself from smirking seeing her Turn red. Tehreem was cursing her fate and him in her mind.

"I feel so special seeing my name written so beautifully in your hand" said Haider and Tehreem cringed hard, he chuckled at her.

Tehreem remembered what had happened. During the Mehendi day she was speaking with Areeka, Areeka was telling that she was thinking about Haider that would he ruin everything. The mehendi lady was asking Tehreem if she wanted to write anything but Tehreem did not hear her, Tehreem has said Haider in surprise to Areeka.

After the Mehendi was over, Tehreem looked at the mehendi to realize that Haider was written on her hand, she ruined her mehendi a bit wiping it as soon as possible but it had already darkened, she made the artist to make it less obvious, but it was still there.

"Whatever" said Tehreem rolling her eyes

"When your eyes get stuck over there, I'm sure my words would be the first which would come to your mind," said Haider

"Don't flatter yourself but think whatever you want which allows you to sleep peacefully at night" said Tehreem with a fake smile that was meant to know

"Tehreem, Try does not miss me and not Tattoo my name next time" said Haider and Tehreem's hand were itching to punch him hard but she controlled herself.

Haider looked at Angry Tehreem one last time before sitting next to Sarah, He found her crumbing the cup in her hand which made him Chuckle.

"This is fun" he mumbled........
