"Is that baba?. Can you give him the phone?". Daneen said excitedly

She smiled tightly, "Oh, I am here for shooting. Actually, your daughter wants to speak to you".

He frowned, "What?".

"Yeah, she called to speak to me and now she wants to speak to you". She said forwarding her phone as he entered the elevator

She saw him speaking to Daneen better than she had ever seen him speaking to anyone even smiled. She guessed that girls always melts father's heart she had heard about it and now watching it was fun.

"Here". He said giving her back the phone

She nodded placing the phone back in her bag waiting patiently for him to say the next words where he would say she can't talk to Daneen.

"I wouldn't say that". He said startling her

She looked at him shocked, "What?".

"I wouldn't ask you not to meet her or talk to her". He said turning around looking in her captivating eyes, "But, I don't want to regret this decision, ever".

"You wouldn't". She said quickly grinning

"Good". He said smiling to himself

*****
"I don't see any benefits". Adam said smirking

He shrugged, "If you are not brave enough to take the risk it's not my problem".

"You should be convincing me". Adam said angrily

"You are not going to be convinced if you are not after knowing all about the deal". He said

"I am not going forward with this". Adam said leaving the room

"Why didn't you stop him, Uzair?". His friend asked

"He is not a person I would want to deal with in the long term". He said, "He is cunning and who knows what".

*****
"Sir, I am sorry but she doesn't meet anyone besides the people she wants to". Her manager said to a very persistent person

"I don't care. I am no one ordinary that she can reject. I am here because I am one of the people who pay for what she does". He said angrily

Her heart clenched.

Her face remained blank but she could feel the same feelings arising again. Every time someone like this man would say the same or even disgusting words to her it would all hurt her the same way.

"That doesn't mean you have a right over her. You choose to look at her work and spend on it. If you don't want then don't. There is no rule where it is said that just because you pay for something, you own it". She heard his angry voice say

She turned around looking at Abid standing there glaring at the man who ran away right that moment.

Uzair just left his meeting hall when he heard the commotion only to find his way back to her shooting. For a moment he was lost at how she looked in her red dress but when he heard the disgusting words of the man all his sense returned making him angry.

She sighs.

Even though those words hurt she cannot say that to anyone since they will only tell her that in their field they should be habitual and deal with this on their own.

Being hated cannot be dealt on their own and neither a human can shut their emotions away, that is what makes them human.

She walked towards her destination to the shoot when her way was blocked. She almost panicked that the same man was in front of her due to which she closed her eyes tightly.

"Jannat". He said softly

She frowned opening her eyes looking at his soft green eyes.

He watched as the few tears were gathered in her eyes as she waited for him to say something.

It was all fake beauty that her world held.

"Are you ok?". He asked

She nodded smiling while the tears still remained in her eyes.

"We need to go". Her manager said before he could say anything making him frown

She nodded looking at him once last time walking away

******
He sat in his hotel room video chatting with Daneen with his mind somewhere else.

"Baba". Daneen whined, "You are not listening".

He frowned, "Sorry, I was just thinking about something".

"What?". She asked curiously

"Nothing". He said smiling, "What were you doing?".

"I was going to call aunty to talk to you because you are not listening". Daneen said crossing her hands over her chest

"I am better than her". He said

Daneen didn't say anything just look at her.

"Daneen?". He heard her voice making him more interested that he forgot his earlier point

"Aunty, were you sleeping?". Daneen asked smiling

"No, beta (daughter), I was looking at something. What are you doing?". She asked softly

"I am talking to baba (father)". Daneen said

"How?. You are talking to me?". She said confused

Daneen laughed, "Oh, I was talking to baba on a video call and I called you too".

"Oh". She paused as they heard a commotion," Sorry, you should talk to your father he must be missing you. We can talk later".

"Ok". Daneen said nodding

"No, wait". He said making them both stop, "Ask what's that sound".

"Aunty, baba is asking what's that sound". Daneen said making him slap his hand on his face

"What sound?. Oh, that is just my manager deciding on things". She replied, "I will call you soon, ok?".

"Ok, bye". Daneen said excitedly, "She will call me soon, baba".

"Yeah, I heard that". He said sighing

******
"What party?. Why is that I am always stuck in these kinds of parties when you know I hate them". He said upset to his friend

"Come on, that fashion show was amazing". Israr said bribing, "Ok, maybe not but this party will be and it's tomorrow. Be on time".

"I-". He started but Israr ended the call, "I cannot believe this".

******
"So, this is my dress for the night. At least you chose a modest one". She said looking at the golden dress

She wore the dress preparing herself for the event she didn't want to go to but had to.

He saw her entering inside the hallway with her manager looking down at something. His heart skipped a beat as he watched her confident stride and when she raised her head looking directly into his eyes he almost lost himself for the moment.

They just stood there looking at one another without a word.

******
She looked around bored in the place filled with people. She never actually liked parties, especially where they have to wear their wealth.

"Hi". She heard someone say, "I am Adam and you are Magnificent".

She turned around looking at the man weirdly," Sorry, but I am not interested in talking".

"What's the harm in talking right?. Did I tell you that you are just as beautiful as everyone says"? He said sitting beside her

She moved her seat a little away from him and he moved closer to her stopping her movement.

"As I said, I am not interested so you can leave". She said nervously

He placed his hand on her under the table making her squeal, "What are you doing?. Leave me".

"What's the attitude for?. I can make you a bigger star if you want. All you have to do is listen to me". He said making her disgusted

She forcefully took her hand away running away from the table with him behind her until she bumped into someone.

"S-Sorry. I wasn't looking". She said stuttering from the fear from the man behind her

"I was". She heard his voice

She turned her head towards Uzair looking at him glaring at the man behind her.

"What?". She asked confused

"I was looking at everything". He said emphasising the last word, "And I didn't like it one bit".

She frowned looking at him not sure what he was saying.

"I need to speak to you". He said before she could move away

She nodded merely following him to another table still shaking.

He found a spot at the corner wanting her to be away from the crowd. He saw her shaking and her hands still moving over one another.

He clenched his fist tightly inhaling and exhaling before he goes and kills Adam.

"What are you doing here?". He asked softly

She looked at him a little startled," I-I come to one of these business events in a year".

He nodded, "Why?".

"Because I like to learn about business and building of an idea". She said her legs still shaking

"You have an idea?". He asked

She nodded, "Yes, I have an idea and I add and edit things when I know from here or there".

"Why not bring it to me?". He suggested

She looked at him confused, "You, why?".

"Bring it to me, ok". He said smiling

She nodded.

He looked at her shaking hands with no idea of how he can possibly calm her down.

"You know what Daneen said?". He said

She looked at him curiously smiling, "What did she say?".

"She didn't exactly say it but she thinks you are better than me". He said making a face

She laughed, "She is a baby. She loves you and she always says that. I will tell her not to say this to you".

"How come you always agree to everything I say?". He asked

She shrugged, "She is your child and the things you said are good for her. She shouldn't be with a stranger and not be connected too close to one so quick".

He nodded, "You think too much like a mother".

She shrugged, "Maybe because I brought myself up".

"What does that mean?". He asked curiously

Her eyes widen, "Oh, nothing".

******
"You left the party early". Her manager said

"Yes, I wasn't in the mood". She said sighing, "I would like to rest now".

She sat in the hotel terrace looking at the sky thinking about all that had happened. She always used to have days where she wanted nothing but peace and calmness. But, she knew she had been given a life where what she wanted wasn't the answer.

All her life, she had made decisions that were worse and had been paying ever since.

Becoming a model is one of them. This wasn't the first time someone had tried something with her. Countless times and countless people had come at her with ways she wouldn't like to recall.

It wasn't fun.

Nothing was for her for a long time. She often wondered how it would be to be free from all of this and actually follow her dream. She knew success wasn't for everyone so she hadn't actually thought about money all she wanted to do was try her way into her dream.

She heard her phone ringing but no will to go inside and bring it so she let it ring escaping in her own world.

She heard the bell ring after a while she sighs walking towards the door completely drained. She opened the door frowning at him standing there breathing heavily.

"Where have you been?". Uzair asked taking a deep breath

"I was here, why?". She asked confused

"Daneen was calling you for an hour and she was worried about you". He said half lying

Her eyes widen, "It's been an hour. I thought it was my manager whining so I ignored it. Let me call her back now".

He nodded.

*****
"Sorry, I was busy". She said softly laying on her bed looking at the plain wall

"Baba told me to call you". Daneen said innocently

Her heart skipped a beat.

"Oh, ok". She said smiling, "What were you doing?".

"I was thinking about mama". Daneen said sighing

"What about her?". She asked softly

"I was thinking if she was here would she ask baba to come to my function and maybe she will come too". Daneen said

"What function, Meri Jaan (my life)?". She asked

Daneen giggle at the name, "My school function. It's yesterday".

She nodded as they continued talking.

******
"Why do you look like you have been running for a long time?". Uzair asked smiling looking at her disoriented state

"Number". She said breathless placing her hands on her side

"That is the best way a woman had ever asked my number for?". He said

She rolled her eyes, "I didn't ask for that. I wanted your number so I don't have to do this running again".

"You are bad at sport and its fun to see you running for me". He said

She straightened herself placing her hand on her waist looking at him uninterested, "Are you done?".

He shakes his head smiling, "I just started. Can we go on?".

"No". She said blankly, "I need a few minutes before you waste more time".

"I-". He started

She cut him off, "Not listening to you. So, I spoke to Daneen last night and she really wants you to be at her function in less than 7 hours".

"What function?". He asked confused

"She participated in one and we need to leave now". She said hurriedly, "We can book a ticket on our way".

He nodded taking a step outside, "What about your shoot?. Your manager is running shouting your name behind us".

She looked behind her then turned around covering her face with a scarf, "Don't look. I have more important thing then a shoot".

******
"Baba, you are here". Daneen said excitedly jumping into his arms

He smiled genuinely hugging her back," Sorry, I didn't know. Jannat told me about it".

"It's ok". She said smiling, "I have to go now so keep your eyes on me".

He nodded.

He turned around looking at Janaat looking around smiling on her own.

"Thank you". He said softly

She turned her head towards him nodding her head.

"Let's go, we have to sit so we can see". She said smiling

He nodded.

******
"Wait, I will call you so you can have my number". He said holding sleeping Daneen

She nodded watching her phone ringing for a while.

"Now, you have my number and email so send me your idea first thing when you are home, ok?". He asked

She nodded.

******
It has been another month and the best thing in her life right now was just the two beautiful souls that she bumped into all the time.

She sat down looking at pictures she took with Daneen when they went out. The child was one of the kinds that always has her forget her worries.

She heard her phone ringing and watched Daneen call coming in but before she can answer she heard a sound from outside almost making her heart stop.

She walked outside looking around when she watched a figure standing in the middle of her lounge. The steps she took her heartbeat rising each time.

Her eyes widen when she realised it wasn't just anyone it was him standing in her lounge.

"Ashfaq?". She said scared

He turned around looking at her with the same eyes that still haunts her in her sleep.

"W-Why- h-how?. You were jailed". She yelled scared as she saw him taking steps

"I had to finish something before I died". He said taking steps closer to her holding her by her neck as she struggled, "I had to kill you".
