Waiting

{time skip...2:30 pm}

"Mmm, this well makes aahil fly from happiness," moving the pan on the fire, a beautiful scent of the cooked food spread. 

    "Let's start preparing," spreading a sheet on the middle table, a long table in the middle of the kitchen, one two three four five plates with spoons and forks.

Pouring juice, three different types on the cups, she voiced, " mmm, I love this feeling" she looks happy. Alena even started to dance singing lightly. 

 She made pasta and chocolate cookies for a while, then made rice for tayiba. Sure she cares about the two of them making a delicious lunch for the duo.

 Setting on one of the chairs, she was waiting for them to get back to eat the dishes together. But after some time she thought, 'they are late today... I will call Tayiba'

*ring~ring*

[the subscriber you dialed is out of range. Please try again later] is what the computerized server replied with the voice of a woman. 

She stood there confused and thought, 'out of range where they could be? Ill dial again". 

*ring~ring*

[the subscriber you dialed is powered off. Please try again later], the voice sounded still, but this time differently.

These words stupefied her, and she was looking at the phone while frowning and thinking, 'first out of range now powered off. I hope you are not in danger, tayiba.'

Her thoughts ran fast. She needs to stop thinking irrationally, and she knows that fact too, 'relax Lena relax I'll call Selena she might know tayiba's location,' good Selena least can calm aleana, trying to call her while moving fast around the table from stress. 

*ring~ring*

[the number you have dialed is currently busy] oh looks like Selena is not available, how life plays its strings Lena thought, ' not now sele please answer.'

*ring~ring* 

As if hearing alenas call, this time, Selena called, "hi, did you call?"

"Hello Selena, are you free?" Aleena said in urgency, moving forward and backward, circling around the table without a pattern, while with every moment, she became more and more anxious. 

"hi, Lena, are you ok?" Selena said in concern noticing the weird way Alena is talking with. She was sitting on her deck, Mabey, she intended to have an urgent call. 

"Do you know where Tayiba is?" Aleena said in stress.

"Yeah, she went to pick them all, but why are you asking?"  Selena asked, confused, frowning slightly and thinking, 'what happened?'

"I tried calling her, but first it showed out of reach than her phone was suddenly turned off," Aleena said with despair, if Selena had seen her facial expressions she would feel pity but thin ~she really cares about them~

"she will be fine, Lena," Selena said to assure Aleena, "don't worry, she is a strong woman, not a kid."

"I will manage that, "Aleena said in concern, the spotted a weird thing that stupefied Selena "promise me you will take care of yourself, "

 "Yes, I promise," Selena said while thinking, 'aww this delusional girl, may she be happy in her life.'

"take care stay aware of your surroundings all the time, find anyone suspicious, call the police, understand?", she like a shotgun shot orders on Selena fastly

"Yes, don't worry about me," Selena answered, playing with her game.

"I will call her again I am disconnecting, don't call me, I will call you myself ok," Aleena said while sobering up shooting other shots of statements, 

*step~step*

"ok bye," Selena said, closing the line then hearing the steps of someone. Opening the door, a man entered. 

"Oh who was that," the unknown man voice asked, while he slowly walked towards the long sofa in the middle of the room 

He was a long fit man, with long curly black hair, brown eyes, and a sweet smile

"Pooh," he threw himself on the sofa while his long legs could touch the table, breathing out the air he looked at Selena, a small black beard wearing a black suit he was a gentleman.

"It was Alena, this poor little girl, I pray she will be happy," Selena asked looking sad and confused from her actions 

"Mmmm you sure care about her," he smiled looking straight into her eyes

----------------------

She cut her call, the first thing she did after that was to call Sahil's school faculty, he was in a private school that took good care of their students, he can't be lost if with them.

"Hello, how may I help you--?" a feminine voice came from the other side, but before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted.

"I wanted to ask whether a woman picked up aahil Ahmed," Aleena said in the most stable voice she could gather, but her interruption startled the receptionist of the school.

"oh, let me check," she said while searching her computer for any information, "yeah, he got picked by a lady, I think she was his ante " the lady from the other side replied.

"We need to ask who you are to aahi--"  the lady continued, but before she could complete her sentence, Aleena cut the call. 

*ring~ring*

calling tayiba again, her worry is now something hazardous, sweet dropped down her friend, if this situation were a regular occurrence it would really affect her health

Aleena's patience is wearing off every minute. She needs to find the whereabouts of aahil and tayiba quickly, or she will die from fear. 

     she mumbled while clutching hardly on the phone, having some hope, "pick up tayiba, pick up damn it."

and like all others call she only get:[the subscriber you call is turned off]

Now Her whole body started to tremble. She was unable to control her nerves .She whispered, ``Tayiba aahil, where are you?" 

*huff~huff*

Holding her chest huffing loudly, she thought, ' please don't get in danger. I can't bear to lose the two of you. 

"I pray zain never finds us ever." now we know why she was afraid!!
