He is charming

''Maa . . , I am getting late ,come fast '' Mehjabin said fixing her sandal strap while holding the door for support.

''Coming ! . . . wait !'' Anam said from the other room.

Anam picked her flip flops from the open cupboard and as soon as she bended to wear it ,sharp pain shoots through her entire back and it became entirely impossible for her to stand ,Rina quickly came and supported her mother back ,Mehjabin helped her to sit on the chair.

''Doctor told you to avoid any kind of work that involves bending ,why didn't you take care of yourself . . . if you don't listen to us at least listen to him '' Rina said in frustration ,after seeing her mother unresponsiveness and stiff nature ,she looked at her behind to see Mehjabin's worried face .

'' And you ,what are you huh ! a child ,can't you go by yourself .Grow up Mehju ,Susan aunt lives just two blocks away .'' Rina jerked her so harshly that she has to bit her lip from the pain.

'' Stop it ! Rina , ever since you have returned from badarpur ,no matter what is happening ,you are dragging Mehjabin into it ,never leaving a chance to humiliate her ''

''Its okay mother ,She is saying right ..I should go by myself only ''

''No ,you are not going alone ,take Adan with you '' she said

Mehjabin [POV]

Maa was harsh on sister Rina ,I know her ways are a little different from all of us but at last she was just worried for mothers health .

God where is Adan ,I really need to find him ,its almost 3.am ,I am already late for the first day what will Susan aunt think .

''Salim ! have you seen Adan ?'' He pointed toward the backyard playground and ran away.

I searched for Adan in the field but didn't found him ,when I was turning to leave ,I heard the voice of someone crying behind the metallic pipes .

There I found Adan crying holding his knee .

''Adan what happened'' I tried to shush him but the poor boy was still crying in pain ,on looking closely I found that he scraped his knee while playing ,I tried lifting him but he was too heavy to even move .

'Maybe I should call someone for help !'

''Adan ! What happened boy !'' I looked at my back to see a Man coming in our direction .

He crouched down at his level and wrapped his handkerchief on his knee ,He easily picked him up but the little boy has a strong grip on my dupatta .

''I guess he wants you to be with him'' The man says without making an eye contact with me ,that's when I took a short take at his appearance.

He was dressed differently from other men of the town with crisp dark brown disheveled hair and honey colored eyes and a subtle face that hides the pain underneath .I don't wanna look down and disrespect him but I guess my eyes betrayed me .

glancing down at his body ,he was dressed in a white shirt paired with standard pants .Men don't usually wear shoes in the town except wedding ,occasions .seeing him wearing a pair of shoes means either he isn't really into customs or he was a follower of foreign culture .

'Never really saw him ,before ' ,because you never really goes out .My inner voice said .

He turned and showed me the way ,should I really go with them .?
