HAYAT POV:
The days have been going fast like it's just morning, one minute and another. It's night already, and today, it's Sunday. I came here after informing my uncle and auntie about the last meeting incident with Ahad and how he wanted me to come here today, too. They were cool about me coming here and meeting him.
I wanted to wear something Pakistani today, but I didn't have many Pakistani clothes in my wardrobe, so I wore black cargo jeans with a white hoodie on top. With open hair, I applied lip balm and went to my car to get to the place on time.
I was looking at my phone to see the time. It was 7 pm already, and I was damn hungry too, so I thought to take some burgers with me for them too.
Taking the burgers from Burger O'clock, I drove to the Do Darya at full speed, parking my car at my now usual place. I took the burger paper bags and got down.
"Here comes my beautiful sister-in-law," Ashar screamed, running towards me, nah he hid behind me, I looked confused and turned towards him when he nudged his chin for me to look at the front.
Here comes my to-be future husband, looking handsome as always, wearing black jeans, a black t-shirt, and a black leather jacket on top with handsomeness as a cherry on top...
After greeting each other, I looked at him and asked, "What was happening here? Why did he come and hide behind me?"
He shook his head and replied, "I asked him for his bike for today's race, and he was teasing me as I told him about you coming to cheer me up" he said scratching the back of his head.
I tried to hide my smile and nod my head saying "So Ashar will not race tonight?"
I looked towards both of them when Ashar replied, "I'll be your passenger princess today, Miss Hayat." I nodded my head and passed each of them the bags...
Both looked at me, as I said, "I was hungry and went to get a burger for myself and thought to get both of you some to eat too." They nodded their heads, and we came to my car to sit and eat together...
After eating in pure silence, Ashar spoke, "Now get out, bhai, I need my passenger seat and you bhai, do not forget to wear the safety jacket, I'll add you and Miss Hayat on the conference call."
I looked at Ashar shocked, we hadn't talked on call till now, what would I do while on a call? "Wear your air pods, guys." Said Ashar, while connecting all of us in an audio call.
"I do not have air pods," I said in a little voice and continued, "Oh I got hand-frees in my car, but my phone isn't charged," I said being sad, and looked at them for help.
Ashar said, "No problem you can wear one of mine while we are on call" I nodded my head and Ahad finally got out of the car and walked towards the guys while Ashar came to the front seat...
"I talked to my mate about you learning drifting and freestyle, and he agreed to teach you about it more professionally," Ashar said while I thought about it.
"Can you join me whenever he gives lessons, I'll not feel comfortable around someone new" I said, hoping he would say yes to me.
"Oh, my crazy woman you didn't need to say it, I would have joined you unannounced too, I won't let my sis-in-law to be to go with any stranger when I can join too," he said giving me a smug smile, I shook my head and started my car to follow Ahad and his gang tonight...
"There will be heavy traffic on the upcoming road, bhai cut," Ashar said as we followed them behind.
He was teasing Ahad with his type of cut calls, and everyone around us knew that bikers do care about others' safety as much as theirs, Ahad was leading the group so obviously he knew about the heavy traffic yet Ashar would tease him while sitting beside me...
"Noted, cut," I heard him saying while looking straight. I looked for him in the crowd, since he was leading the bikers, he was at the front and as we were following all of them from behind, I couldn't see him...it was too hard for me to look for Ahad in the crowd...
"Miss Hayat is looking for you in the crowd, bhai. Please appear in front of her," I heard Ashar saying, I glared at him and wished I could smack his head right now, I'll take my revenge soon, my boy...
I looked at the front and focused on my driving when I saw a biker raising his right hand and waving it in the air, and I heard Ahad through the air pods, "My lady, I hope you can see my hand waving in the air for you, now if you had spot me, please cheer for me too" his soothing voice did something to my heart, that I never felt before...
"Oh bhai, my sis-to-be is blushing," Ashar said, and hood like a little boy.
"I want to throw you out of this car for being a radio between us, you manic," I finally said, annoyed, he's embarrassing me.
"Wild cat, calm down, you have only one brother-in-law" I heard Ahad joining Ashar in his teasing game, too.
"I hate you both," I said whisperingly and huffed a little.
While hearing both of them laugh, I smiled and shook my head.
The race went amazing. It was 11 pm. When we finally came to do Darya again...
"It was so fun to see you ride while sitting with my dear buddy enjoying it for the first time bhai, please request this crazy woman to join us the next time too," Ashar said and walked away to meet his mates...
"Enjoyed??" He asked.
"Yes, a lot," I replied while looking here and there, not knowing what to say at the moment.
"I got the books for you. Wait, I'll take them from my car for you." I nodded as he walked to his car, while I was waiting for him.
I thought about how I was going to read the books when he came back, and I saw all 6 books that I spoke about to him in the text...
I forwarded my hand to take them when he shook his head and spoke politely, "Tell me where I should put them for you in the car?" I opened the front door for him, he put the books down and looked at me.
"It's already 11 pm. If you want to go home, you can, or you can stay here with me and Ashar," he said, and I thought about how considerable he was. He did not order me around, but he asked me about what I wanted to do... it warmed my heart a little more than before.
"I'm a little tired, so I'll go home. I need to go to the university tomorrow too to get my admission done," I whispered while looking here and there again, it's hard for me to look directly into his eyes, I felt like my heart would explode from the emotions I felt in that moment...
"Okay then, good night," He said, to which I replied back and moved to my car when he said from behind, "I will join you for drifting after you learn it for sure, I didn't just think to say it in our chat so..." He trailed his words, I smiled and moved to my car and drove away...
Finally, the day came to an end, I was sitting on my bed with Peer-e-Kamil, I opened the book and tried reading...
Half an hour later, I huffed and put the book down. Why didn't I take Urdu literature classes attentively? Why didn't I learn about it, ahh, I was seriously frustrated...
My phone vibrated, indicating someone had texted me, seeing who it was. I opened the text messages when I saw five voice messages that were 30 minutes long, I was about it listen to the first one when another message came, "you said you are not very good with Urdu and you wanted to read Urdu novels too so I figured out something for you, I'll send you voice messages of every book chapter daily so you can listen to it while trying to focus on the novel, or if you want you can just listen to my voice messages." I read the message when a really big smile broke on my lips...
"And yeah, sorry for not asking beforehand, but I just sent you voice messages of Peer-e-Kamil first since I love this one the most. Hopefully, you won't mind it, or if you want, you can tell me any other book name, and I'll send their voice messages to you too." I was too touched by his efforts...
He's putting so much effort just because I told him once that I want to read an Urdu novel?
I replied back, "I'll go with Peer-e-Kamil first, and I definitely love this idea of yours, thank you." I just love it.
Smiling to myself, I plugged my hand-frees with my phone and started listening to his voice messages while trying to focus on the book, too...
