A huge wave of happiness past over me as I saw you come. Your eyes were red and you was slowly walking towards me. Unknown to me I started walking towards you. As you appeared and the pain in me decreased. We went closer to each other as you felt my cheeks. You thought of them cuter and smoother than the last time you had touched them. I smiled in between my crying. You smile too. You pulled me into a tight hug and I hugged you back. You whispered 'I love you' in my hair as I whispered 'I love you too' back. I knew that you were smiling even when you weren't face to face with me. And I know you knew too that I was smiling. I remembered the day Mamu died. I felt guilty again. I knew how much Mamu meant to you and because of my mistake he died without you getting hold of the culprit. You shouted at me that day. You have shouted earlier too, but I don't know why? But this hurted more. I knew that you would not be able to understand what the situation my emotions had put me in. I was really sad that I couldn't be by your side that day.
You pulled back and cupped my cheeks. You smiled looking at me. You said you were sorry but I knew that it wasn't your fault at all. You were in shock that day. I was in shock too but I could handle myself because the thought of losing someone close to your heart held me in. I know that you felt guilty for shouting at me but I shouldn't have helped Zubair. He was such a *** that he did it. I felt guilty too as my- uh. Your mom shouted at me and told me to go out. And don't worry I wasn't expecting you either to be by my side and help me through this. I knew what Mamu meant to you and I don't want to deny that it was all my fault.
You pulled me into a hug again as you wanted to get over the feeling and pain I had in my chest too. But I don't know why but that pain decreased as soon as I saw you. You said you were sorry as you pulled me tighter. I wrapped my hands around you completely and digged my head into your chest. You were crying I could see. But I knew that this was the time you could cry. You told me that whatever your mom told me was as she was in shock and you felt guilty about it. I pulled back and cupped his cheek as you drowned into them to feel the warmth of my hands. You looked up after a while. You said that you were a total *** for shouting at me. I said that it was your fault after all. Mamu had died and we were all devastated. You told me that my mother and your mother had now patched up and were doing a ceremony for Mamu to rest in peace. I said I knew I didn't knew about it. You said that I should come home with u but I said I don't want to. You cupped my cheek and said 'I love you Aaliya! Please forgive me for not supporting you but now I think you should come back'. I cried a little more and you made my tears go away by saying Malika-E-Zain I really need to work on my emotions handling. You wiped my tears away as you led me to the car hand in hand.
We reached the car as you opened the door for me. I sat in and suddenly, the pain was all gone. You came and sat beside me and told me if I was okay. I told you that I would be the best if I had your company. You smiled as we proceeded towards home. Your mom welcomed me as soon as we reached home with a hug. She burst down into tears as I tried to calm her down. Your face had a warm smile which made me feel relieved. Your mom pulled back as she cupped my cheeks and asked for me to forgive her. I overlapped her hand with mine and said that she didn't need to apologize. You were smiling seeing us together. I felt relieved again. We sat down and prayed for Mamu to rest in peace. I loved him. He was my best friend, best uncle and the best support. He was with me when u were not and I didn't complain about it. You saw me crying during the dua and told me that I need not worry. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE BY MY SIDE. I smiled as he pulled me into a hug as my mom and your mom joined the hug and Aayat came in too. We all were crying but I was relieved. Relieved that finally our family was one. But I still would miss my Mamu. I silently requested Allah to take care of Mamu as he is the gem of my heart. And up there Allah blessed her. She drowned deeper into the hug as she felt the feeling sink in..
AN UNKNOWN FEELING THAT IS KNOWN TO MANY AS LOVE.
