Amaan's POV.
It's been one month, yet I don't know why she's running in my mind. Her smile, her hidden pain and limitless talks. Uhh I really do miss her. I wish we could meet once again. But nope!
"Bhawww. Bhaaaaiiiii." I looked up and Sarah's body appeared in front of me with a very excited face. I backed off and helped her to get up as she fell on the floor after bumping with me.
"You are so late? It's 1 at night, huh? She asked looking at me with the help of her phone's flashlight.
"You know... I newly joined, so have some pressure in office." I replied and tried to leave her path but she pulled me and looked at me with her big excited eyes. I unbuttoned the collar button of my shirt and whispered a what.
"Someone came. Did you know?" She asked with shyness in her voice.
"Yeah I heard, Ammi told me in call."
"Don't you want to meet with her? You know she's very beautiful awee! And with her, her friend also came. In the morning surely you'll mee......"
"Shut up Sarah, such a talkative you are! What will I do knowing about them? Are they boys huh?"
"But bhaiiii...huh leave." Getting no chance to continue her useless pak pak, she left my path but not before punching on my chest. I smiled and started walking toward the direction of kitchen.
So about that girl, Abbu and Ammi were discussing that night. She's Omar Uncle's daughter, that's why my parents are so careful toward her!
Huh who cares. I am not the one to be interested in this topic!
Suddenly I heard sound coming from the kitchen. I ran over there and turned on the flashlight of my phone.
At this time....who's there.
Writer's POV.
In darkness, with her shaky legs, finally she entered the kitchen. Everything is silent as all are sleeping now. Only her heart is beating making loud sounds. Not finding the switch of the lights of kitchen, she decided to go back. As she turned, a human body appeared in front of her looking at her with the flashlight of phone.
"Bho...bhoot...Wallahi...Bhoot.."
She whispered harshly getting scared, moving back she closed her eyes.
"Who's bhoot? I can't believe, being a thief you are blaming me as a bhoot....ghost?"
Irritatedly he asked taking steps toward her.
"Allah go....save me go...Allah go..."
So according to him, she's now not any thief, but a helpless fool?
"Who are you?"
He asked suspiciously.
"I...bhoot...I am.....Bho...bhoot..."
"WHAT?"
"No no ..you are bhoot...."
She, getting confused and scared, replied like a fool. He smiled as his mind reminded him that he knows that voice.
Just then someone turned on the lights and both of them looked at each other.
"What are you both doing here?"
A voice of an mid aged woman asked looking at them.
'Hazel Eyes?'
'Hijaabi Girl?'
They both kept looking at each other with rolled eyes and fast heart beats. Amaan's mother also kept quite seeing them lost in each other's eyes.
Suddenly Amaan moved and turned off the flashlight of his phone and looked at his mother, while Hania shivered and chose to keep quite with lowered eyes.
"Ammi....?" He looked at her and his eyes questioned her something.
"Amaan, didn't I tell you? About Hania? Look. Here's she." She introduced Hania to Amaan and walked near Hania.
"Hania, he's my 3rd son, Amaan. He was in office. Just came, are you tired, Amaan?"
"Mm no Ammi...you..you go to sleep." Amaan said but both his mind and eyes are fixed on Hania. Internally, Amaan is dancing but Hania is really confused and she isn't able to understand any single thing here.
Firstly she didn't at all want to stay here being a burden and secondly, bringing Kinza with her. But this family, being the sweetest and the best, accepted Kinza with zillions amount of happiness and love.
"Ok I am going to sleep. Hania dear, go to your room soon, it's late." Saying so, she left leaving both of them alone, facing each other.
Amaan started taking slow steps toward her but she's moving back realizing that.
"I... can't believe. Hania...." With a smile, he whispered and came closer to her.
"Mm..move back...."
"Ohh. Still do you think, I'm any bhoot?" He asked teasingly and she smiled, yet looking down.
"It's your house!" Hania asked looking at him with her swollen eyes.
"Yup...and I guess now yours too." He said and winked at her.
"Mm...move back. I want to leave."
"Good night. Trust me Hania, I missed you a lot. I am so happy seeing you here." He said enough loudly to reach his words to her as she is running to her room with her excited heart.
"I hate you Mr.Idrisi. No need to miss me." When he heard her voice, he rolled his eyes at her and slapped on his head.

"Aapi, Sarah is so loving right?" Kinza asked hugging Hania in the bed very tightly. At first she wasn't happy. Because she is an extra burden on them. But the way Sarah and her parents convinced her to feel in this house, melted her heart.
"Exactly...they all are sweet. Because Chachu and Chachi are also very loving, so their children now." Hania replied with a smile and thinking about Amaan.
"Huh but I didn't see your Hazel eyes yet." Kinza teased as Hania immediately shared about the kitchen matter after coming in the room, and most importantly, breaking Kinza's sleep.
"First he isn't mine. And then huh Kinza. Don't tease me. Sleep now."
"Sure sure. Goody nighty."
"Chame chame."

"Haniiiiiaa....heyyyy....helloo... Hania..." Amaan, from out of Hania's bedroom, called her with a voice louder than whisper. He is hanging on the wall of balcony, high risk of falling down. But at this 2 hour of night, he's waiting for Hania to come to him.
"Haniaaaaa...." Little louder he yelled but Hania didn't even move. Where Kinza woke up and got scared looking at the door. She looked at Hania, without deciding to wake her up, she got up from bed and walked out of the balcony.
"Oooo Hijaabi girl..Allah...." Amaan tiredly muttered and rested his head on the wall.
'I just wanted to walk out with you.... huh.'
"Who's there?" Kinza asked looking at Amaan's head. Happily he looked at her but then his face expression changed into a shameful and upset one.
"Hello?"
"Mm..I want Hania." He said like a fool. Kinza doubted that it must be Amaan. She smiled and came toward him.
"Hazel eyes?"
"Mm yeah."
"Hania Aapi is in sleep. Why are you calling her at this time?"
"Ufff..mmm I don't know. Can't you wake her up, please?"
"Okk but you'll fall from here. Come up." Kinza said with a sheepish smile and then Amaan carefully stood on the balcony.
"Who's there, Kinza? Ufff no one will let me sleep." Hania yelled with sleepy eyes.
"Your loving hazel eyes came." Kinza replied turning around. Immediately Hania's ears rang and she jumped on the balcony but after wearing her hijab.
Amaan looked at Hania with a cute puppy face and Hania rolled her eyes.
"Aapi, good night." Kinza left after closing the door of balcony, leaving them alone.
"You?"
"No..ghost. Can we kindly go for a walk?" Amaan invited her with a cute smile. But Hania wrapped her hands around her chest and shook her head.
"Where were you a whole month huh? Amaan Sir."
"Huh...I'm not your sir. Please come...I want to talk to you."
"But how will I get down? I'm not any thief like you that I will have experience to get down by this way." Hania said looking down the balcony. Amaan laughed.
"Actually I don't mind taking you down wrapping your tiny body around me." Amaan's joke didn't bring laugh on her face but she gave a murderous glare and he muttered a sorry.
