WAHAAJ’S POV:
It was a month after our misunderstanding, that I’d Abeera at her maternal home. Her parents had agreed to Ayyan and Saira’s marriage and a week was left for the wedding. Abeera wanted to spend this week with her sister and I couldn’t deny her request.
As soon as I reached home, I’d already begin missing Abeera. I had no idea as to how I was going to stay without her for 7 days.
---------
At dinner:
“Stop being grumpy! He is going to be here in 7 days.” Mom said playfully and I just sighed.
It was around midnight and I was still awake, when I decide to call Abeera. She picked it up at the first ring.
“Hello? Why aren’t you asleep?” I asked.
“Um. I couldn’t fall asleep.” She replied in a low tone.
“So, is my cute wife missing her favourite pillow?” I teased her. In the past few days, I realized how much my wife likes to sleep on my chest or shoulder. Her cute little sighs of pleasure when I pull her closer just make me feel ecstatic.
“Ali!” She whined making me laugh. I love teasing her.
“Missing me?” I asked her softly after a while.
“Yes.” he stated in the same tone. I could imagine the blush on her face as she admitted.
I ended the call and decided to end my torture as well.
ABEERA’S POV:
Wahhaj ended the call abruptly. I wasn’t able to sleep even after two hours, and so I decided to read a novel. I’d just begun reading, that there was a knock on the front door.
“Who could be here at this time of night?” I thought, while feeling a bit scared.
Everyone was already asleep, so I decided to check on it myself. To my surprise and relief, it was Wahaaj. Before I could say or ask anything, I saw Mom coming toward to the door as well.
“Wahaaj what are you doing here at this hour?” Mom asked, surprised.
“Aunty, I can’t find a file and I need it for a meeting tomorrow.” He said as he scratched the back of his neck. Anyone who saw him could’ve known that he was lying.
“Oh! But don’t you think it’s a bit late for that?” Mom asked, but then she continued, “You can take her with you.”
After that, Mom left and he looked at me. “Let’s go” He said.
“Let me change.” I said as I was still in my pjs
“There’s no need. It’s almost midnight, no one is going to see you.” He said and dragged me towards the car. I didn’t say anything else.
When we reached home, he pulled me towards our room.
“What can’t you find?” I asked him.
“You.” He stated as he walked to me. His eyes were full of longing and love, making me blush and look down.
He kissed my forehead and I looked into his eyes. He placed his lips on mine. The kiss was slow and sensual, making me fill with sweet warmth.
Before I knew what was happening, he’d picked me up and placed me on the bed. This time, his kiss was fast, demanding and hunger-filled.
WAHAAJ’S POV:
I was kissing her passionately, she tasted the sweetest. I wasn’t able to get enough of her, when I broke the kiss.
“Ali... “ Abeera whispered looking at me with a flushed face. That was also when I noticed our position. I was completely on top of her. Although I wanted to stay in this position for a while longer, but I decided otherwise.
She hasn’t even confessed her love to me yet. I know that she has started to love me, but I still want her confession as well. I kissed her forehead and whispered a sorry.
I moved to the other side of the bed reluctantly. I pulled her to me as she snuggled into my neck. She never really reaches for me, it’s always me making the first move. I want to show her that she has rights on me, but I also understand her shyness.
It wasn’t long before we fell asleep.
The next morning, I told Abeera that she could go to her home and that I would pick her up at evening. She agreed and we started our day.
