Chapter 16, her pounding heart

But instead of home, she saw a mart in front of her. And before she could ask anything, he had already gotten out of the car.

"Wait here." He ordered this, locked the car and left.

Moomal kept watching him go. But only five minutes had passed when he appeared holding the shopper in his hand. Moomal didn't understand what he needed at this time.

Huzaifa opened the car door and sat on the driver's seat and placed it in her lap.

"What is this?" She asked as she opened the shopper, but as soon as she saw the cone of ice cream, a smile spread on her face. But then she remembered their quarrel a while ago, she said removing her smile.

"I told you, I don't want to eat ice cream. Then why did you buy it?"

"Okay, if you don't want it, I'll throw it away."

"Don't even dare..!!" Moomal warned, she glared at him, her cheeks were flushing.

Huzaifa teased her. "Why ...? You didn't want to eat ice cream. Then what happened now?"

"Don't waste your sustenance. It is a sin." She said almost hiding that shopper from him.

"But you said..."

"I'm not talking to you..." Moomal said and quietly turned her attention to her favorite ice cream.

Since childhood, Moomal has never liked any other ice cream except for this particular cone of ice cream. Because of her strange special choice, Huzaifa often brought her this ice cream.

"Okay, don't talk to me, but remember, the next time you get a call on your phone from the wrong number, you will never attend it, otherwise, no matter how much you get angry with me, I won't talk to you. Huzaifa said stubbornly like a child.

Hearing his warning, she forgot her ice cream and started looking at him with wide eyes. But Huzaifa's face was completely unaffected.

"You're eating like a baby" he said and leaned towards her and cleaned her upper lip with his thumb.

After wiping her lip. He cleaned his hand with a tissue and started the car.

But Moomal was still watching him in a state of shock. Her heart was pounding as if it was about to break out of its cage.

"What are you looking at...? All your hands are getting dirty. What are you even thinking like that...?!?" As soon as he saw her again, he snapped, pointing at her hand.

Moomal suddenly lowered her gaze and put the melting ice cream back in the shopper and started wiping her hands with a tissue. But the shaking of her hands forced her to clasp her hands in the form of fists.

She could still feel the warmth of Huzaifa's touch on her lips. And she was barely able to stop her fingers from touching her lips.

But in a few seconds, a faint smile spread on her lips. Which she could not stop even after a million attempts.

Only his light touch has made her this happy... what if one day Huzaifa fell in love with her...?

But he loves Ruby...

And this thought has completely wiped the smile from her lips.

And then she began to think of herself as the most unfortunate girl in the world.

Her feelings, her emotions depend only on him.

She knew that her love for Huzaifa was destroying her life . But she is completely helpless in front of her heart.

Is she losing herself. . . ?

This time she hesitantly looked at his face. Fortunately, his attention was on the road. So she kept looking at him without hesitation.

She knew he'll never love her back the way she loves him, but still, she couldn't stop herself from loving him.

With every passing day, her love for him was even increasing with time.

She wished he could love her back...
