Chap 5

It was Sarah's birthday today, and Zoya was totally in stressed in organizing her party, her daughter was today 6 years. How time went so fast, she didn't see her growing so fast. It was because of her presence and her love that Zoya could face her painful past, just because of this bond of pure love between a mother and daughter. She was thankful that Sarah didn't look like Sufian in anything. However, sometimes she can see a glimpse of his look in her eyes or a facial expression, but it left rapidly. Zoya was happy for two reason, for her daughter's birthday but also for finding a true friend like Asad. He became an important person in her life now, she told him everything about her past and he didn't run, he didn't leave, instead of, his behaviour didn't change, he was the same naughtier guys like she met him the first time, he was always asking her for a date and she loved to decline each time, but her refusal never stopped him. Both seemed to enjoy this game. Even if they never went out together, they saw each other very often and it was not only in the name of friendship, but much more.

All the occasion were good for them to see each other, to talk, for bickering and for teasing. She felt more confort now and felt lighter now that he knew everything about her, he respected her fears and promise to wait until she was ready.

The kids was about to come, most of the children had Zoya as a teacher, it will be weird for them but she was happy that her daughter was not exclude because of this, instead of, Sarah was accepted totally by her close friends. Salim was also invited and for sure Asad, proposed himself to help Zoya in the organization and for sure she didn't refuse. He was in charge to bring the cake and she was in charge for the decoration.

One by one, the kids came, bringing gift and their laughs and noise, slowly the appartment was full with 8 children, Zoya was used to control more than this, so for her it was nothing. Asad and Salim didn't come yet, he was always late, she rolled her eyes, why did she expect from him to come on time ? He was like a drama queen, he liked to make a triumphant entry.

The door bell rang and she opened it. She found a huge teddy bear , almost as tall as she was. It was Asad for sure, and he passed his head behind :

-hello Miss Farooqui, he sang

-hello Mister Khan

-hello Miss Farooqui, said Salim

-hello Salim, she held Salim on her arms and posed a long and loud kiss on his cheek, he blushed and he ran away when she freed him

- Is it by any chance, one day you will wish me good morning like this ?

-of course, the day you will have 6 years old, she mocked him

-but I'm 6 years old in my mind, Miss farooqui, so where is my kiss ? He showed her his cheek

-Asad, you never miss any occasion, she rolled her eyes heavenly

-what ? You said 6 years and I am, this is unfair, Zoya, you are not playing fair with me, NEVER, he said annoyed.

-poor little boy, give me the cake, I will put it in the frigde.

-uncle Asad, uncle Asad , you are here, shouted happily Sarah who ran to his arms.

Asad lifted her and she kissed him on his cheek and he kissed her back.

-Look what I bring to you, he gave her the huge teddy bear

-wooowww, uncle, it was really big, her eyes lighted up seeing him

-you like it, princess ?

-Of course, I like it, I have to give him a name now, mmh, I will call him uncle Asad

-you are really think that I am cute as this teddy ? He looked quizzically at her and at the teddy bear

-both of you are cute, because both of you are my uncle Asad. She replied innocently

-thank you so much my princess, I will put it in your room and go to play with the others now. She nodded and ran to join their friend.

Zoya and Asad smiled at the kid playing with each other.

-See your daughter know how to welcome and she is more fair than you, he teased her

-well mister Khan, I'm not 6 years old to welcome you like this

-well, I don't mind, until it's you who kiss me, he waggled his eyelids

-Oh God give me a patience to bear this man , she looked to the sky

-you are rude with me, Miss Farooqui

-give me this and stop acting like a child, she took the teddy bear and marched away

-so you are agree that I'm a child, so why I still don't have a kiss from you ? Sarah found her uncle Asad cute and she kissed him, so why not you ? He followed her into Sarah's room

-Ok, you win this time, I have to admit that you are right.

-really ? He took a break, wait, you are playing with me, right ?

-no, absolutely not and to proove you, I will give a perfect good morning kiss to the cuttest uncle Asad, she mimed quotes. Asad stood agape. She approached him and he closed his eyes in anticipation, but nothing came and he just heard the sound of kiss. When he opened his eyes, he saw her kissing the cuddy toy.

-what was that ? He sound like he was about to cry

-what ? I kissed uncle Asad, she said sweetly

-you kissed the FAKE Uncle Asad,

-you didn't precise, so I kiss him, look at his innocent eyes and his nose.

-FAKE, just Fake, he slapped the bear

-ASAD, she rubbed it cheek, you are a monster, don't cry baby and she kissed him softly on the cheek that he slapped, how cute, he is so cute and perfect.

-perfect, my foot !!! I'll sue him for identity theft

-yes, he is and you know why, because he was silent

-oh, so for you, being perfect mean to be silent with you?

-Yes

-perfect, he took his finger and zipped his lips and threw the keys.

-Mister khan, what are you doing ?

He struggled his shoulders and showed her his closed lips.

-Mister Khan, please stop this, he shook his head in no, Mister khan you will not going to talk ? He nodded positively, you are the most irritating man I've ever seen. She growled in frustration.

He smirked at her and she left holding her head, he then turned to the teddy bear, he pointed to his eyes and then to him, telling him : I'm watching you man.

While the kids was playing together, adults have found something to look after : Zoya's mission was to make him speak, and his mission was to remain silent, and all means were good to come to an end. She tried to call him but he only shook his head, she tried to ask him question, he replied by writting on paper. She didn't success in anything, so she decided not to play fair, he was right, she was not fair, but she wanted to win. One moment, she called him and he joined her in the kitchen, she walked on his feet in purpose, he became red and bitted his hand closed in fist to suppress his scream.

-are you going to talk for God sake ? She said frustrated

He said no with his head and took a paper and wrote frantically :

I want my kiss

Zoya's eyes opened in shock and responded : NEVER. Both of them left in each other ways.

It was the time to blow the candle, Zoya switched off the light and all started to sing the song of happy birthday. Zoya and Asad glanced at each other in challenge.

Sarah with full happiness, closed her eyes making her wish and all her friend blew with her. All clapped and Zoya started to cut the cake and gave to everyone. Asad sat with Sarah talking with her.

-So Sarah baby, how was your cake ?

-it looks so good, I love the picture of frozen princess on it, I love it

-I'm happy and so tell me what was your wish ?

-I can't tell you uncle

-why ?

-because it won't happen if I tell you

-maybe I can make it real if you tell me, who know ? Maybe I can realize your dream princess

Sarah looked hesitantly, like she was fighting with herself, Zoya came from behind and she heard the last sentence, and was curious to know what a girl with 6 years old can wish.

-well, uncle, I always do the same wish at all my birthday and I always wish..., she stopped, he rubbed her back to encourage her, I wish to have my dad with me.

Zoya gasped in shock and the plate that she was holding start to shake. She was shaking and her tears rode her eyes, Asad looked at Zoya and held Sarah in his arms, rubbing her back. Zoya placed the plate and ran away. Asad closed his eyes frustrated, he regretted his questions, he didn't think once that Sarah's wish will be this, he thought of a childhish wish but not an impossible, he even can fullfill and he didn't want this dream to happen for the happiness of both of them.

-Sarah, princess, one day, I'm sorry I can't fill this wish but I'm sure you will find what you want, just ask Allah to give it to you. She nodded happily and she left with the other.

Zoya couldn't hold herself for feeling guilty and sad from what she heard. She can't say the truth to her daughter, she can't tell her that her father left her when she was not even mature in her wombs. How can she tell her that he will never come back ? She wished so many time to tell her the truth, but she can't do it, she can't break her heart, but one day she may accuse her for hidden the truth from her, she will get hurt because she let her hope all this year. Nothing is more painful than a hope shattered by lies. Zoya locked herself in the bathroom, standing again the door, stifling her sobs but not her tears.

-Zoya ? He knocked on the door

-I'm.., she gulped, I'm in

He knew that she was crying, he saw her face when Sarah asked her father for her birthday, he knew that she needed him, he ran after her but she was too quick for him. He heard her hidden sobs behind the door, he wanted to break this door but he can't, he wanted her to open to him. Only he knew, how many times, he controlled himself from her rejection, how many times, he wanted to shake her and to put sense in her, he wanted her to trust him, to be with him and to let all this painful past, but he couldn't, his love for her was much stronger than his impatience to have her in his life.

-Zoya, please let me in, he said softly behind the door

-Asad, I need the washroom, I will call you once I finish, she tried to sound normal, but her voice was weak

-Zoya, please let me in

-Why Asad ? Just leave, please, she begged, she wanted him to go, she wanted to be alone and cried in peace.

-I want to hold you, he whispered, Zoya hearing this, closed her eyes firmly and let out a brief but loud sobs.

-Asad please, leave

-I will not leave Zoya, I told you, I will not leave your side

-I don't want you Asad

-why ?

-I don't want to get used to,

-I don't mind, I can borrow you my arms for free, for as long as you need, he tried to crack a joke. She let a sad chuckle

-Asad are you for real ?

-Yes, of course, just let me in, and I will let you touch me everywhere

-Asad you were supposed to keep quiet, how you will get your kiss now, she laughed sadly

-wiping your tears is what I want the most now than a kiss

-Asad, she breathed

-please, let me hold you

-No, she said quietly without convincing, she needed him so much, but she was still fighting without envy. She wanted badly to open this door and to crush herself in his arms and to cry, but still there was a weak and strong force enough to stop her from doing this.

-I promise, I won't say dirty jokes if you let me hold you

-Mister Khan, you can't stop yourself from saying them

-It's not my fault if when I see you, I feel like I'm a teenager and you make me feel some weird things under my chest

-really ?

-yes, and somewhere else

-ASAD, she blushed

-I will only stop if you let me in

-this is a blackmail, Asad

-I can do anything to hold you

-please Asad, you deserve a normal person not a broken woman like me

-let me heal this wound, I promise I won't hurt you but I can't do it alone, I need you

-Asad, she called him as a whimper. She turned and posed her head on the door, her resolution of stopping him became weaker.

-please let me sweetheart, for me

She felt goosebumps when he called her like this, even if she didn't see him, she only felt love in his call, she needed him so much, her bod was craving for his touch, her body was aching with pain the more she resisted to his call. She let her hand lazily on the wrist of the door, she breathed slowly and opened it. Asad couldn't believe his eyes, he thought that he will have to talk to her longer, but it looked like she did a step toward him. It may be the first step for both of them. He hope that soon the door of her heart will be open for him. He entered hesitantly, like he didn't want to rush, he took steps toward her, and she stepped back. He closed the door behind him, they were all alone. He stood looking at her while she was looking down, like she was carrying the whole world on her shoulders. He brushed softly her shoulders and pulled her to him. She didn't resist and she lay on his chest like we lay on the bed after a long journey. She let her body to embrace his and she posed her head in the place where she loved the most, on his chest where he assured her that she was already there. This was the most peaceful place that she found since ages. She moaned when he held her back. She let her hand, travelling all over his muscular back, she wanted to feel him and to touch him. It wasn't just a hold for her, she wanted him to ease her pain, she grabbed his shirt with her fingers. Like he sensed her need, he pushed her into him, encircling her shoulders. He gripped her firmly and she did the same. After few minutes, she loosened her grip and her breath returned to normal.

-thank you, she just said and stared at the miror

-well, it's me who should say thank you

-you ? Why ?

-thank you because you didn't call the police yet for harrasment

-you are just an idiot, she said affectionately

Asad looked at her throught the mirror and she smiled softly to thank him. Her eyes still red and all around the black of her khol tanished her face due to the tears and her cheeks were still red. He stared at her reflection, but she avoided his eyes and the concern in them make her feel weak. She wanted to be in his arms, she felt herself attracted dangerously to him. She took a piece of cotton to wipe those tears and the black below her eyes. She started by going away when he stopped her.

-Miss farooqui, what is this ? He asked showing a kit

-my make-up kit

-all of this ? woow, why do you need all of this ? He took the kit in his hand looking strangely at.

-it s girl stuff, Asad , she took from him

-what is this ?

-eye-liner

-how it works ? show me please

-like this, she took it and traced a small line on her eyelids, it help to define your look

-and what is this ?

-mascara, and this , she putted on her eyelashes, it's for enhancing the eyes

-and this ?

-powder blush, it's for the cheeks.

-and this I know it for the lips, right ?

-first good answer

-I'm good in lips science, she chuckled, she putted some on her lips.

He putted his hand on her shoulders and looked at her.

-it's better now

-you know everything about make-up kit, right ?

-well, I have a mother and I was married so yes, but I swear I never played with it, she smiled softly, I know that make-up will not heal your pain but it will mask your sadness to the other and Sarah. Once a sexy and beautiful woman told me that being a parent, it's not an easy task, so give her time and all child need both of the parents, you can't change this truth. Sarah will be fine because you are with her and she will grow up, for the moment, she don't need to know the truth about her father, you teach me to give them love and not to make them bitter. So keep confidence and strength, and let the time do what it do the best, oblivion.

Zoya took his hands in hers and wrapped herself with like a scarf, she placed her back against her chest and her head on his neck.

-thank you, Asad

He held her and kissed her forhead, she turned and faced him.

-Asad

-mmh

-I agree to go on date with you, she looked down, he sighed

-but I don't want

-what ? She looked up

-I don't want like this, I know why you say that, because you are feeling guilty and you think that I gave you a lot and you nothing, so you feel yourself beholden. But I don't want it like this.

-Asad, it's...she tried to ripost

-Zoya, I swear only God knows how much I was waiting to hear that from you, but I also know that I don't want to use a moment of your weakness. I want our date to be really good, I want you to be happy and content about the fact to spend time with me, I want you Zoya, it's truth but not now and not like this. He rubbed her cheek with his thumb.

Zoya wanted to pinch herself to be sure that she did not live in a dream, he continued to surprise her day after day. He was not human, it was the only explanation, another man would have jumped at the occasion but not him, he was different. He was right, she was beholden for his kindness, she wanted to make him happy and she agreed but he saw through and read her like an open book.

Finally, Asad and Zoya quit their washroom and joined the kids, acting normally in front of them. They both kept playing with the kid when Asad received a call and stepped back. Asad called Zoya and wanted to talk to her in private.

-what's wrong Asad ?

-Zoya, I'm sorry again, I have to go to the work, one of my partnership came and asked for a urgent meeting, it wasn't plan.

-again, she teased him, I will think that your work is your secret mistress

-for the moment it is, he said sadly

-it's ok, Asad, soon the parents will come to take their kids and I will be with only Sarah and Salim, so don't worry, I can manage, if I can manage you, I can manage any other kids, she winked

-naughty miss Farooqui, I like it, anyway, I wanted to give this when it will be just you and me, but I guess I will not have this opportunity, so I bring this gift for you

-Asad, it's not my birthday, she was embarassed

-well, it can be

-Asad, it s Sarah's birthday and not mine

-Miss Farooqui, many forget that every time a baby is born it is because the mother gave birth, we forget that this is a result of long hours, a sacrifice, hard and painful labors, the mother gives birth, actually every time we feast anniversary, we should highlight the mother who made this day, and even after years, it is important to remember this mother, who often remains in the shadow of every birthday.

Zoya was speechless, he waved her to open the box. Her hands was shivering with emotions, when was he going to stop from turning her world upside down ? She gently opened the box and she found a bracelet with 6 silver pearls hanging.

-each pearls for each years of Sarah's age and for those years that I miss beeing with you.

-that's so sweet of you Asad, her voice was shaking with emotion

-you like it ? He said hesitantly

-I love it, put it around my wrist please

-with pleasure, and he executed. It s really beautiful now, next year, I will bring another pearl and the year after, and the year after, until they will be no place. He didn't leave her hand and she didn't push him.

- I hope to have a hundred then, he smiled tenderly at her. I guess uncle Asad deserve a kiss

-hugh, the fake one ? Again ? I will put him behind the bars, you hear me ? he said seriously

She laughed loudly, she laughed from her heart, a laugh full with joy, earlier she was shaking with sadness and pain and now, she was shaking with laugh. His lips twirled a little seeing her so happy, he felt content and tears reached his eyes.

-Asad, thank you so much, I guess I have to thank Uncle Asad too

-I don't want to see this, it's an horror picture for me, he hid his eyes with his hand.

She smiled, she stood on tiptoe and she putted her lips on his cheek, she finally kissed as he wanted, long she remained on his cheek, eyes closed, savoring the moment. Asad on his side, remained dumbfounded when he felt her lips on his cheek, he did not move, and he can not prevent his smile. Zoya felt under her lips his cheek stretching and knew he was smiling. She stopped almost against heart and their eyes met, both, with a big smile. Zoya went away all red almost running while he was still wearing a smile, hurting his muscles, but he did not care, it's a big step, a step after so much waiting. And it was even better than he had imagined.

It was already 9pm and Asad didn't come back to take Salim. Thankfully, it was the weekend and she didn't sleep early. After Sarah's party, she gave dinner to them, played and discussed with the kids. She didn't see the time, she felt a weird sensation, pleasant and familiar feeling, like a dj-vu. She imagined herself waiting for him and scolded him because he was late for the dinner. She smiled inwardly at this dream. Before he enterred her life, she has always seen herself alone when she imagined the future, but since he entered his life, it seems that his future has taken another turn and another vision. She saw herself with Asad and with their children, this vison sent shiver throught all her body but she closed rapidily this door of impossible hope. She can't stand to break it, especially this one. She held the bracelet that he offered her.

It was close to 11pm, and the kid were already at the bed and sleeping. Asad has sent her a message that he was close to her house, she waited for him reading her book when she heard his knock. She jumped happily to the door, she stood for a second in front of the door, taking a long and deep breath. He was lying lazily again the door, looking tired. She sucked her breath seeing him, she just wanted to welcome him like a perfect wife by holding him and kissing him softly on his lips. She didn't know why her mind didn't stop from drifting into this sweet dream with him. His words has opened in her a confort and secure in the future, and her heart didn't wait to be convince anymore, but still she couldn't dream loudly. He waved his hand in front of her and she got back to reality.

-where are you Miss Farooqui ? he giggled at her, crossing her path.

-hum, sorry, I was just thinking about something

-or someone ? He winked and she just rolled her eyes and felt her cheeks hot, thankfully, it was a bit dark and he didn't see her shyness.

Asad threw himself on the sofa, and let his head on the edge, streching his legs. He closed his eyes and breathed slowly. Zoya looked at him dreamily, once again she saw herself going to him and massaging his head to soothe him from his long day. He blinked and looked at her :

-are you ok ? He asked, he found her strangely quiet

-huh, she cleared her troath, yes of course and you ? She smacked her head with her stupid question, of course he was tired anyone can see this, but no you are busy dreaming about him and a future with him, she thought. Clear your mind, Zoya, she encourage herself.

-well, I-am-DEAD, he emphasized his tiredness, it was too long, I had to negociate with a new foreigner client all this day and still, on Monday I will continue. She didn't let any details, ugh, she took all my energy, he sighed

-she ? She asked nonchalantly, but inside her guts constricted

-yes, you know Miss Farooqui, business women are stronger than men, because she had to proove a lot and because she dealed with men, you can find two type or she will act like a men or she will seduce them. He babbled and he didn't notice Zoya and her tensed face.

-and which one did you face today ? She was curious to know why was he SO tired ? Did she take his energy in the real meaning of the term ? She knew that she was jealous but still she tried to act normaly.

-THE MAN SIDE, he yelled helpless, oh God, she killed me.

-why don't you just seduce her ? She asked annoyed

-what do you mean ? He opened one eye

-I mean, like she will charm you, you can charm her, some women appreciate flattery, and they lowered their guard.

-and did the flattery works with you Zoya ? He teased her

-it depends who and how this flattery sounds.She teased him back

-Oh, I see, and could you tell me what kind of flattery that works with you ?

-Mister Khan, we are not talking about me but about your partner, She turned away.

This discussion has slipped from her hand and they were going in the dangerous road.

-Zoya, I don't want to know how to please other women, I want to please you and to charm you, just teach me how and what do I have to do to reach your heart ? His voice full with gravity.

-Asad, you are just impossible, you never stop, she giggled and went to the kitchen, coffee ? She asked to change the topic.

-yes, please, I'm close to sleep here, your sofa it's so confortable, he closed his eyes again and let all his weight on the sofa.

Zoya smiled at him, looking at him while she was preparing the coffee. She didn't leave any occasion to drool over him, thank to his tiredness or he may have caught her staring at him. She came and putted the coffee in front of him. She sat a bit away from him, still her eyes longely watching him. She putted her elbow on the edge to keep balance of her head, and smiled looking at him. He didn't move.

-Asad , she called him softlty, she didn't want to wake him up

-mmh, he growled

-thank you for today, the kid appreciated the party

-it was a pleasure for me to see them happy and to see you happy too, he smiled

-I am, she lowered her eyes

-really ? He looked at her surprised, why ?

-because after all, you made it for Sarah, for the kids and...for me, so thank you for everything, she whispered sincerely.

Asad didn't say much, he felt satisfy that he successed in his task, it was erratic day for him, he played with the kids for hours, he was with her and confort her and then he left to his office negociating for 3 hours more, but at the end, his sacrifices have paid, he had only to look into her eyes to see that it was worth. He closed his eyes and smiled tiredly

-Asad, she called him

-mmh, he hummed

-how did you see you future ? She didn't know why she asked him this question, but she wanted to use his state of sleep, to know if he feel like her.

-My future ? Well, first , I see Salim , as a strong and clever man, a succesfull, married and happy, the corner of his lips rose a bit

-And ?

-I can see my other children, around, I can imagine them but I can't see their face yet, but ...I know I have another, his voice started to slow

-what about their mother ? She let her chin on her hands, she saw him smiling widely and smiled with him

- she will be next to me watching our children, she will hold my hand and look at me with love. She will scold me because I would forget to take my medication, he chuckled, she will pass her hand in my white hair and pinch my cheeks. She will tell me that I have kept my promises to make her happy and have not hurt her and that she liked to be by my side for this life. His eyes was still closed while his words brought tears into Zoya's eyes.

-and you ? She asked him, he turned his face to her side and opened them, he looked at her deeply and displayed a warm smile, his eyes full with sparkles and love. She felt herself like he was telling her throught his eyes and she didn't look away, instead of she dive into them.

He reached her cheek and caressed it with the back of his hand, she let him and closed her eyes under his touch.

-I will look at her, and show her with my eyes all those words that I have in my heart for her, I will touch her face and I will tell her that she makes me happy the day she choose me over anything, that before her I was alone in the road but with her, I found my way back home. That I take my medecine and to remind her for the umpteenth time that I don't like when she pinches my cheeks, she let out a soft chuckle, and that life was too short for the love I still have for her in my heart and that one life was not enough for me to be with her.

Both stared at each other, in silence, but their eyes caged unsaid words and feelings for each other. Asad kept his hand on her cheek and she let him and for a change, she didn't need to push him. She let her heart enjoying this moment, her fears left her leaving her in world of dreams.

-and you Miss Farooqui ? How do you see your future ? He asked her this time

She let a deep sad sigh and turned her face away from him, she knew what it was and it wasn't as beautiful as he described. As she hid her past, she suppressed any hope or dream for her future. She used to live day after day, she decided to live throught her daughter, her fears never let her to watch far from where she was now.

-Asad, she started, I never dream about a future and when I used to ask myself, I only dream about Sarah and her happiness. But each time, I woke up in stress asking myself, what if she made the same mistakes that I did ? What if she fell in love with the wrong guy ? What if I was at my parents place and she was at my place ? How to protect her ? And all my fears darkened the picture and I stopped thinking about any future.

-do you regretting having her, Zoya ?

-Of course not, she shouted shocked, she is my reason to live

-so, she gave you strenght to stand up and you raised her as good as you can, so don't let your fears controlling and disturbing your fate in Allah and in her. She will make mistakes but you will always be with her, no matter what. So, he came to her, his face was few centimeter away from her, he brushed her forehead with the back of his index, threw all this weird and sad idea from your mind, it won't help.

-What if ...

-Sshhh, nothing is going to happen, he cupped her face, I'm here with you, she nodded weakly, so I want you to close your eyes and imagine a future and let your imagination do the rest.

-I see myself cooking for my family, I see two boys and two girls, she chuckled, I saw them running without taking the time to eat, those kids, she smiled. I feel his hand around my waist, he was behind, kissing me here, she showed her temple, and he said that he miss me. He will push me to him and hold me close to him, the way I love. I know his voice but I can't see his face yet, he turned me slowly and I saw...Her eyes opened fell on him, his eyes were closed and he snored softly. She stroked his hair affectionately and brought her lips close to his, and she whispered :

-and I saw you, she moved her lips to his forehead and putted soft kiss.

She kept stroking his hair and scanned his face, he was sleeping in inconfortable position, but it seemed not disturb. She knew that she was in love with him, in love with this man, who gave her his hand to keep her away from her darkness, keep her away from her fears. She was in love, should she say again or for the first time ? This feeling was different, it was deeper and more intense. It was stronger and soothing. It felt right, a tears fell on her cheek, she felt joy and happiness after so long. She felt overwhelming, she didn't know that destiny can be generous again with her, that life gave her another gift after Sarah and it was a true love.

Asad woke up slowly, his neck and back was aching him, he groaned in pain. He stirred from his sleep and felt in cage and not free of his movement. He opened his eyes slowly, and saw her facing him, he blinked any times to be sure that he wasn't dreaming, he rubbed his eyes and stepped back a bit. She was there, in his arms, sleeping, her face looked angelic and some lock was on her forehead, disturbing his view. He held them between two of his fingers and reposed them behind her ears, taking the opportunity to brush her ears with. She was breathing slowly and her chest was moving in synch, tapping slightly against his. Her head on his arms and all her body was aligned with his. He let his eyes watching her features, he found her so beautiful and he wished deep in his heart, to have her like this for the rest of his life. He loved her, he felt this long back ago, maybe from the beginning. He loved everything in her, her smile, her weakness, her tenderness, her anger, her eyes, her lips, he posed his eyes on her pinky and gorgeous lips. He was lucky to taste them once and he wanted to feel them again, but he will wait for the day she decided to come to him. He will wait for her.

She shivered and she turned to the other side, but because of the lack on the space, she was about to fall when he grabbed her waist and her shoulders. She growled slowly in her sleep, Asad stopped to breath and to move, he didn't want her to wake up, he can't explain how they finished like this, against each other. All he remembered that they were discussing about future and after all became blank in his mind. He observed her for a minute and she didn't move, finally, he sighed in relief, that she was still sleeping. He looked all around, now he had to find a way to get up without disturbing her. He brought her to his side and his body aligned with her, to give the warmth she needed. He made her sit quietly and slipped his hand under her legs. Thus, he can lift her discreetly and quietly. Fortunately, it was early, only 8am and the house seemed very quiet. She circled her hands around his neck and she placed her head against his chest. He walked on tiptoe to her room and for a moment the ground began to creak and he stopped net of any movement, even breathing. He felt himself like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible. The goal was not to wake her up or he was dead. He did not want to imagine how would she react if she saw him doing this. He sighed and finally, placed her delicately on the bed. He took the blanket and covered her. She moaned satisfy and he smiled. He stood up watching her still sleeping, and he left quietly.

Zoya turned on her bed and opening slowly her eyes, it was around 10am, she covered herself with the blanket. It was Sunday and it was too early to wake up, she didn't hear Sarah, which means that she was still on her bed. Suddenly, she sat abruptly and recalled the last night. Asad was next to her and she was on the sofa, how did she reach her bed ? She didn't remember anything, only that she was looking at him sleeping. She jumped from her bed and tiptoe on her feet, if he was still sleeping, she didn't want to disturb him. The door began to creak when she tried to open it, she began to whisper to the door asking it to shut up. She approached slowly but the sofa was empty, she looked upset, she wanted to see him. Her shoulders fell in defeat and she turned to her bed, but then she stopped in front the table. It was covered with small buns, muffin, jam, butter and lots of other things. There was also returned cups and in the middle a large bouquet of flowers with a card. She took the card in hand, she knew who it was, she smiled before even reading it. He had written in his hand, she passed the fingers on his written words.

Hello sleeping beauty, I don't have time to share the breakfast with you, and I am so sorry but I wanted to set the table for the three of you telling me that somehow I am with you. I left the coffee hot and milk in the pan. Love you, Asad.

She looked at the table and at the card, she held the card next to her heart. She also noticed how he finish his card, with love you , she could only hear her heartbeat. She used to hate this word of love, but he taught her how to love all those things that she restrained for years.

-ya Allah, why this man has to be so perfect and cute ? I didn't believe that this kind of men can exist and he was in front of me.

She looked up to the sky and thank Allah for her luck and her newborn happiness.
