PART 10

 

Aaliya was seated in the dining hall waiting for Aamir when Tahiya, Alisha along with Aamir entered the hall.

 

" Hope you have not waited for long." Enquired Aamir while the other two had an expression, which clearly said that they were uninterested.

 

" No, I just came in here myself."

 

" Good." Said Alisha in a tune that was not really welcome.

 

Aaliya's eyes shot up towards Aamir's face, where she could see the expression of shame.

 

Aaliya and Aamir had eye contact through which Aamir understood that Aaliya did not blame Aamir for the way his sisters behaved.

 

And Aaliya too understood the big 'Thank you' that Aamir wished to tell her.

 

Aaliya just smiled, thus closing up the subject.

 

They had their lunch in silence and soon afterwards they set out towards their rooms.

 

" Our rooms are ready," said Tahiya, " we will be staying there. And Aamir your room needs a little more adjustments and then it will be complete."

 

Aamir just nodded.

 

Tahiya and Alisha walked in one direction while Aamir and Aaliya in the other.
