Hello Hello,

Took so long aye?

But, here I am XD

Seriously, thank you to each one of you who is still sticking around. I am so sorry for this month long wait :/

<<>>

*Reacap*

Haya and Shehryaar are at the relationship advisor's office that has been set up by Haya and Alisha is the advisor!*

~~~***~~~

~~~HAYA's POV~~~

"Well, so tell me how have things been? How you two started dating and all?" Aisha jumped straight to the point after a brief introduction. I looked at Shehry and waited for him to go first.

He looked at me and raised an eyebrow. I eyed him to start but he rolled his eyes, "I thought its supposed to be ladies first everywhere." I chuckled and shook my head at his words.

"Are you wearing contacts?" Alisha asked Shehry out of nowhere and we both turned to look at her. "No, why?" Shehry frowned at her and she shook her head.

"No, I haven't seen such gorgeous eyes before," she smiled at him. She kept her elbow on the desk, resting her chin on the back of her palm. I raised an eyebrow at her.

"Uhh thanks," Shehry smiled back just before I kicked her from under the desk. "Bitch!" she shrieked and instantly ducked down to rub the sore spot.

Meri friend ho kar mere boyfriend pe chance maaregi. hmmph.

"What?" Shehry frowned again and I bit my lips while she struggled to answer that.

"Bitch.... My bitch... Female dog? Your eyes- they remind me of my little female dog. So pretty," She stuttered, covering up for herself and my jaw dropped. Haye Allah! Itni toh pyaari pyaari aankhein hein. Isse inhein dekh kar kutte yaad aate hein!

Kutti.

"Oh, okay then," Shehry sighed, "Probably the weirdest compliment I have ever received." He rubbed the back of his neck and I chuckled, looking away. I knew she was a bad idea.

"So, any of you going to tell me?" Alisha asked again, raising an eyebrow, like we were wasting time and not her.

"Y-yeah," Shehry straightened his coat and smiled at her, "well, we have been dating for past two weeks and first few days were just amazing but-"

"Do you know how sexy your jaw line is?" Alisha interjected, taking Shehry by surprise. He blinked at her and then looked at me, his eyes clearly taunting me about choosing such an idiot relationship advisor.

"Yes, I get that a lot," he smirked at her and took her hand in his, "but, you just made me feel extra special..... May I?" Alisha nodded and he took her hand closer to his mouth, kissing the back of it.

"Ehemm," I awkwardly cleared my throat and huffed, just in case they forgot that I am right here.

Alisha pulled her hand out of his grip and straightened her expressions, "Haan toh aap keh rahe the?"

"Uhh," Shehry sighed again and sat back, "everything started great and now everything feels so complicated... like she is never satisfied and cries all the time. She just keeps saying we should drop this relationship here."

"Then leave her already. You have better, hot looking chics out there," Alisha shrugged instantly and I had a sudden urge of peeling her head off her neck.

Did She just say that I am not hot enough? Well, maybe I am not as hot compared to his ex-girlfriends but Pyaar toh andha hota hai na?

"You don't get it," Shehry's voice pulled me out of my little sad moment, "the moment I saw her, I knew I wanted to be with her. So I am willing to fix things.... Make this work."

Aww my Shehry Berry boo boo!

"So, what exactly is stopping you?"

He sighed, defeated, and stole a glance at me, "her attitude.... She is being so clingy all of a sudden. She was so nice and cool the first day. And now it's like I don't know this girl."

"Haw!" I gasped at his comment, "I am being clingy? You were the one sending me roses. You were the one dying to ride me home, take me on a goddamn cheesy date. That over rated Katrina's movie!"

"Thats called being romantic!" He countered back, "but, maybe you don't understand a thing about that because I am sure your relationships never got to that point. Ever. Right?"

Wow! What happened to that 'make this work' part now?

I scowled at him as I sank deeper in my chair. I had nothing in my defence. I have never dated before so how will I know?

Do something, Haya. You have to win this argument. There is no way I can letting him win this.

"Did you just see how he talks to me?" I turned to Alisha instead, "he insulted me in front of his brothers and friend and now he is doing the same here. Like that's how much he respects me....  That's how much he 'lourves' me," I twisted the word and form speech marks in the air.

"Oh come on Haya! If I didn't 'lourve' you," he imitated me, "then I wouldn't have cooked for you, or taken you out when you magically turned out to be vegan and refused to eat meat just two day after we had an ice cream date!"

Oh..

He realised.

Like... oh shit.

Well, did we ever discuss how hopeless my luck is? Do we even need to talk about it now?

"Haan toh?" I gulped, pushing my hair behind my ear. Lie always leads to another lie. "I love animals but its ice cream we are talking about.... Itna bhi kya pyaar?"

"Yeah dude, you aren't human enough if you don't eat ice cream," Alisha added in my defence and I leaned forward. "Yeah, give me a high five!"

"Whatever," Shehry shook his head, unconvinced. I eyed Alisha to bring up the topic again and she nodded.

"So you don't like her clinginess, that's it?" She asked Shehry and he sighed, nodding.

I narrowed my eyes at them. Didn't we just agree that he is the clingy one?

"Clingy, han?" I asked Shehry and he looked up at me, "kuch zyada he chipakti hoon na? You want space right? Then end it here. Tum apne raaste, main apne raste."

"Don't start again!" He groaned, tugging onto his own hair as he stood up. He leaned over the table, towards Alisha. She kept her elbows on the table and smiled at him. Can she not see how frustrated he was right now?

"This!" he all of a sudden pointed at me, "You see this? This negativity? She so negative about this relationship from day one like it was her goal to experience a failed relationship!"

OMFG, don't tell me he can read minds too.

"Then go ahead! problem solved, session over, bye bye," Alisha blurted with a grin and I mentally face palmed myself.

"Drop her home, come back because I am free this evening. What about coffee or dinner?" I scowled at her. She was clearly asking my boyfriend out in front of me. She wants to steal my man. Her best friend's man!

"May I ask, are you a relationship advisor or a breakup advisor?" I asked her, smiling sarcastically. She wriggled her eyebrows at me and I looked away.

Why is it irritating me so much?

"See, she cares, she is clearly jealous," Shehry's voice caught my attention again, "that's why we want it to work."

"But it's still not working, is it?" Alisha asked him and I nodded instead.

"It's not because he keeps getting grumpy-"

"Because she can't stop being so nosy. Like She knew my investor's office number too," he added before I could finish my sentence.

Never thought I would hear such things about myself.

"Yet, I want it to work.. You know why?" He looked at me and pouted, "because I really really like you. Your smile, eyes, laugh, even your tantrums..."

A sweet smile played on his lips while he continued talking about me and I couldn't take my eyes off his'. Never thought someone would ever look at me like this. With so much love.

"Aww baby!" I sighed as I stepped forward and  pulled his cheek.

"Yo, dude, hey," Alisha waved her hand in front of our faces and made us look away.

"Can you decide if you are here to love her tantrums or complain about them?"

"Well, she needs to reduce them like just a tiny bit," shehry touched his index finger's tip to his thumb's tip, making it look like a pinch, "like this other day, she broke a plate and cried and last night she broke my Xbox controller."

"Well, because that 'other' day, I cooked for you because you were sick. Yet you chose to make faces. And yesterday I bought food for you and you tried throwing me out of your house," I smiled up at him, reminding him the exact situation.

"Throw? Are you serious?" He gasped at me, "you were not even supposed to be there! I told you that a day ago."

"Well, I am sorry I cared for you!" I rolled my eyes. To be honest, I would hate it if someone crashed my party like this. Unless he is Tom Cruise... Or Fawad Khan... Or Hrithik Roshan .... Or- ok fine! Celebs in general.

"Reality check! I survived many boys night without your care," he jeered at me and I was suddenly at a loss of words again.

I would have never gate crashed if it wasn't for the freaking article.

~~~SHEHRY's POV~~~

She was getting on my nerves. Like every word she said was irritating me. I'd leave her right now since there is no way I am getting anywhere with this relationship but, I need this for my launch party. I need to keep her.

"Fine then, survive your life without me too," Haya waved her fingers at me with a sarcastic smile playing on her lips, "toodles."

I mentally rolled my eyes at her words and scratched my eyebrow for the words I just used. I keep losing my cool even though I was trying to sort things out here.

"See, she keeps leaving like this!" I told the lady. I didn't even remember her name but, something about her seemed a little too familiar.

"Then tell me why should I stay?!"

"After all I have done," I sighed and looked at the lady, "this is what she is saying."

"Look Mr. Shehryaar, I don't think you are compatible for each other," she told me and I groaned internally, "maybe it's not supposed to happen."

"Then make us happen," I retorted, "that's your job."

She is talking as if I am an iPhone and Haya is an app. This app is not compatible with your iOS version. No? Ok.

"Zabardasti hai?" Haya countered at me and I stared at her in utmost disbelief.

"I mean... I mean if she says we aren't good together then probably we aren't."

"Who is she to decide?" I narrowed my eyes in frustration. I need Haya to stay.

"Then prove it that you are meant to be," the advisor spoke, making me frown. "How?" I asked her.

"Kiss her."

"What?! No!" Haya and I chocked almost at the same time.

"Jeez! Easy you two! I was just suggesting a scientific way," She Brought her hands forward defensively, "you know when two people kiss, their hormones exchange information and decide if they can have healthy babies together or not."

Great, so now I have to kiss her and find out if we can have healthy babies or not? No way!

"I have heard that somewhere," Haya frowned at the lady and she nodded. "London Paris New York. Ali Zafar. Hawt!"

"Yeah! Omg!" Haya shrieked, leaning forward to give that lady yet another high five, "That movie was so cute! And Ali- Haye use dekh Kar toh bas!"

I kept looking Haya to that lady as the began talking like childhood best friends. We were off topic again. Seriously, larkiyon ko topic milna chahiye bas- kaheen bhi kisi ke bhi sath shuru ho jaateen Hein.

"Ehemm," I cleared my throat and they stopped at once. "Any other way?" I asked, getting straight to the point. We had already wasted over an hour here.

"But isn't kissing cute enough?" The lady whined and I rolled my eyes. "No, Pass....Option number two?"

"Ugh typically desi," the lady shook her head, "how would you normally decide that then?"

Oh, am I supposed to tell them mine? I bet they don't want to know.

"I think he has a better answer," Haya pointed at me and I gapped, "he has a long list of exes so he has a better way of deciding."

What the-

Well that's true but, who will be my girl? The one I would want to spend my life with? I Think I have always had it clear in my mind that the girl who I will marry, should be someone my parents will approve. No matter how much in love I am with that girl (which will never happen), if my family accepts her, then only I will get somewhere with that relationship.

"If I love someone, I'll introduce her to my parents and let them decide," I shrugged without realising what I had just said.

"And you love Haya?"

"Yes I do."

"Great! Introduce her to your parents. Have a holiday and let them decide," her voice pricked my ears all of a sudden. I mentally face palmed myself. Or maybe no, I mentally face palmed her face with a chair. With nails sticking out of it.

"No! I mean I can't just take her to them, I need to get them ready mentally," I told her and turned to Haya, "Next month Pakka baby!"

"Next month? You are leaving for your cousin's engagement tomorrow so take her with you. It's a great excuse!" The lady suggested again and I mentally stabbed her.

No way. No way I can take Haya. My family can't know about her, they can't take her seriously. I want her gone after the party. I don't think I'll be able to handle a girl like her longer than that!

"It's ok if you don't want to take me," Haya batted her eyelids at me and I sighed internally. Thank God.

"He doesn't love me enough to introduce me to his family and that's ok," she said to the lady and I cried.

"Baby, I do!" I yelled in my defence but, she shook her head. "It's ok with me, really."

When girls say it's ok, it's never even closer.

"But Hay-"

"It's ok Shehry!"

Damn, I can already see myself losing my investment contract.

"Fine!" I sighed, "you are coming!"

"What b-" I didn't let her speak or throw her dramatic words at me.

"You are coming and I'll pick you at 8 in the morning."

"No she-"

"We are all set!" I told her firmly and got up, before that lady could screw up my life even a tiny bit more. Maregi ye pakka.

"Thanks for your help, here is you money and buy," I opened my wallet and passed her the check before holding Haya's hand and dragging her with me.

Haya plus family equals to a big fat mess. Bas yeh mama Ko pasand na aa jaye.

~~~HAYA's POV~~~

Shehry stopped the car in front of my apartment and got out to open my door. I jumped out and smiled at him awkwardly. The car ride was short and silent.

"Shehry seriously you don't-"

"Haya, I would love it if you came with me. My parents will love you," he smiled, assuringly, and I cried internally.

Iss baat ka toh rona hai. Agar main unhein pasand aa gayi toh? Ab unhein bhi sambhalna parega?

"Fine," I forced a smiled and he gave me a quick hug.

"8AM sharp," he reminded me before he sat in his car and drove off.

Alisha Ki bachi, you were supposed to convince him that we can't happen and you landed me straight in his house. Aise dosto se ache dushman hote Hein.

I kept cursing her as I made my way to the lift and went up to my floor. I was tired and irritated. Now that trip meant extra hard work which I am never willing to do.

"Hey! How did it go?" Humera asked the moment she opened the door, "Hussain just told me you are going too."

Hussain told her that already? Shehry left like 2 minutes ago and he informed Hussain already? Bara khush ho raha hoga. Kaise peeche par par ke haan kara li. nahi jana mujhe Houston, nahi karni engagement attend, nahi sudharna mujhe ye rishta. If only...

I gave her a pretty sarcastic smile and stepped inside.

"Great! How can things go wrong when Alisha is involved?"

"Woah- hold on. Don't tell me she screwed up," Humera gasped at me and I sighed. Isn't it written all over my face right now?

"She basically got me an invite for an event a random relationship advisor shouldn't even know about."

"What?"

"She Suggested I attend Waqas' engagement with Shehry but guess what, he hadn't even discussed the event with me yet! Like what if he realises this too and figures out-"

"Hold on! 'This too' matlab?" Humera stuck her hand up In front of my face and I tugged onto my hair. "He realised vegans aren't supposed to eat ice cream which I did with him... Oh and! I had coffee with him..... Which he probably hasn't realised yet."

I wonder what other loop holes I have left there? I want him to leave me but, without him knowing that I want him to do so. If he finds out it was all a plan, I cant even begin to imagine how hurt he would be. Allah! save me.

~~~HUSSAIN's POV~~~

"Saali," Shehry cussed again and I shook my head to hide my amusement, "introduce her to your parents." he mocked the lady's voice. He claims he doesn't even remember her name because there was a whole lot of other stuff to remember. Like how she got him into this mess.

"Yaar, you took her to a relationship advisor. what else do you expect?" I asked, "she would want you two to do everything possible, right?"

"If I knew that this is what she will get me into, I would have found myself another girl instead," he huffed and sat down on the bed.

"Ab Haya itni bhi buri nahi hai," I rolled my eye, "give her a chance at least."

"Oh please Hussain," Shehry groaned, throwing a pillow at me, "you know I can't handle girls like her and introducing one to my family... I don't know what happening Yaar!"

"Mama and dad kya sochenge? kaheen Waqas ke saath meri bhi mangni karwadi toh?" he added and I sighed. I had an idea but, if only he would listen to it without teasing me.

"How about... how about I invite Humera?" I asked and he instantly got up. he walked over to where I was sitting and sat down. "Abbey o aashiq. Main apni wali ko bhagane ke bare main soch raha hoon aur tu uski dost ko beech main ghussa."

I rolled my eyes at him, "Duffer, soch. if both of them will come as our frineds, mama and dad wont take it in a wrong way."

"And what if Haya tells them that we are dating?"

I sighed and thought for a second. "Tera bad luck itna bhi kharab nahi ho sakta!"

"Saaley!" he snorted right before we cracked up laughing at what he has got himself into.

~~~HUMERA's POV~~~

"No means no! I am not coming!" I told Haya firmly who was sitting on her knees in front of me. "Maan ja na jaan please!"

My mistake? I told her about Hussain's invite.

"Nahi Yaar, his family will be there and I don't want anything serious. I don't like what's going on in his head," I winced and she shook her head.

"Fine. Main hoon kaun Teri? You care about yourself only so fine, itne strangers ke saath main akeli," she batted her eyelashes, pouting at me. I groaned, rolling my eyes.

Naitanki ek number Ki. Yeh writer Nahi hoti toh actor hoti.

"Fine! Ab ro mat!" I Groaned and walked past her, towards the couch.

"So is that a yes?" She asked me and I shrugged. "Whatever."

"Eeeh! Yes!" She shrieked as she ran towards me. Haya kissed my cheek even though I tried pushing her away, "just remember, hussain loves you for this!"

I gasped at her words but before I could slap her, she ran away, "Haya!"

"Humera!" She called out, imitating me.

"I hate you!" I yelled.

"I know!" She yelled back before slamming her bedroom door shut.

I shook my head in defeat and pulled out my phone to let hussain know that I am joining him.... Them. A smiled unknowingly appeared on my face and I face palmed myself. Kya ho Gaya hai mujhe? What is he doing to me?

Hey!!

This chap was the toughest. I was not up for the whole advisor thing. When I wrote the last chap, I was in a mood of finally writing it down but, then I lost interest.
Which is why it's probably so rushed and out of place :/

But now, I am clear with the rest of the book :D
11th November is my last exam so I'll be updating this book regularly after that or maybe I'll update before that ... lol I don't know....

Love Always !!
