Zainab:
Sometimes we are eagerly awaiting certain days, and other times we do not want a certain day to arrive too soon.

Two days have gone by so swiftly, and tomorrow is the meeting day—the day I have to face Hamza—when I checked the time, and it is already 12 a.m.

I never once imagined that I would ever see him again, not even in my dreams. He had destroyed me, and my family's reputation was on the line; everything was ruined because of one individual and his family, and I had buried all the memories deep inside of me.

I can not even ignore tomorrow since I am the assistant, and I have heard that he is friends with Zahid. It is like a small world.

I slept with Rehmat yesterday, but today I persuaded her that even though I slept with her yesterday, she would have closely watched me and realized that I had been keeping a lot of things from her.

I noticed my phone vibrating at that moment and saw it was Rehmat. Whoa, I just thought of her and she called, but why was she up at this hour?

"Assalamualeikum,"I greeted as soon as I picked it up and waited for her reply.

"Waleikumsalam,"she replied softly and for moment I thought she had disconnected but then she continued.

"Sorry to disturb you,"she apologised thinking she had disturbed my beauty sleep.

"No no I was awake,"I told her honestly.

"Oww thinking of Zahid?"she asked me teasing like always.

"No no not of him but  of work and  tomorrow we have meeting with some new members and I was just preparing for it,"I explained to her and sighed in relief she agreed.

"What are you doing awake till now?"I asked her curiously.

"You remember the guy I told you about?some months back I had confessed to you that I had feelings for him but then when I knew he was just flirting I stopped chatting he was player?"she asked and I remembered her whole story but why was she telling me now??

"Yeah what happened about him?you said he was from abroad and glad you won't meet him it's not possible," I told her shaking my head with a sad expression.

"He texted me I was curious and opened the message he just said he's back," she said softly and my eyes widened.

I think she was scared her mom will find out or dad she was trying to forget her feelings and move on though it's not easy and now he's back.

Hamza is back and now even someone from Rehmat's past is back...what will happen??
Who's he??

"Calm down and relax, "I tried to comfort her with such soothing words waited for her to speak.

"I don't know what if he creates the problem?" she asked me I think she's hiding something from me it feels like he has seen her pic that's why she's scared.

"We will talk more tomorrow for now take a deep breath go do ablution recite lots of duas and sleep, "I told her just what I do before sleeping and she agreed then we ended the call.

A best friend is someone who reminds you of your religion also.

I was checking out through google some important notes to write for tomorrow and switch off data while I was about to switch off data a notification popped up.

I opened wow a message from Zahid the grumpy boss let's see what he has to say now...and Zainab you really have to be strong now and it seems today no one is sleepy.

Zainab is strong you have to face your problems and solve them by yourself don't be dependent on anyone.

"Don't forget tomorrow come on time meeting starts at sharp 9 am.

Did the guy even know how to start the message with a greeting?

I kept reading and reading the message and an idea popped up in my mind and a wide smile appeared on my face since he was ignoring me and he didn't even ask a question he just wanted the message to be delivered to me so it's delivered he will know once he will see blue ticks...

Let's see what he will say tomorrow...well done Zainab first step of bravery.

Instead of replying I read the message again and kept two alarms after that, I switched off the data and I lay thinking how will I face two people Hamza and Zahid? what will happen?does Hamza know I work for Zahid and there are several Hamza in the world...Is he the one who made my awesome days to sleepless nights?I lay staring at the ceiling and thinking until sleep consumed me.

****
Excited to read more?
So Zainab thought that her first small step will be of being strong and brave and she read her Boss Zahid's message but ignored it she didn't reply him at all...
