"Wh-what are you doing?" He asked bewildered.

Scratching my head I replied, "haha...no-nothing!" I shrugged.

"Then why have you wrapped bedsheet around your waist?" Confusion dancing in his eyes.

I looked down and yep, I had wrapped bedsheet around my waist "You know, it's the la-latest fashion" I again shrugged.

"Huh??!!" His eyes grew wide.

"Do you need anything?" I asked.

"This is my room" he replied still shocked.

I can't help it but at least his reaction is far most civil than mine!

The thing is I had kept enough of pyjamas but when I needed them today, I only found one. And that also, Mr.Adeel dirtied it and now I had nothing to wear except from jeans or nightdress. But who wear nightdress in the evening? And as it is it was too hot so I wasn't in the mood to wear jeans. So, just for the moment I decided to wear my extra short shorts which I don't know how it came in my luggage, till I find a proper comfortable clothing.

But my hunt for a proper clothing went outside the window when I heard him coming and the only possible thing I could come up, was to wrap a bedsheet around my waist so that it covers my lower part.

"Umm...so I should take my leave then?" It sounded more like a question.

"You are fine, right?" He asked.

I fake laughed, "absolutely!"

"Great!" He was still not satisfied

Holding the bedsheet tightly, I tried to walk normally but failed miserably. I was tripping. "You're gonna hurt yourself, Hani." He was now irritated.

"No, I'm fine. I need to check upon Adeel fast" I said walking backwards, while looking at him.

"Hani, easy!"

"See, I'm fine" I said laughing. But soon I stepped on a ball making me trip and I felled down with a loud thud! I groaned but immediately I sat up, gulping. His eyes were wide enough to tell me that I failed. Placing my head in my hand, I groaned, again.

"So this was your latest fashion? Hiding your shorts?" He asked sitting down in front of me. "Hani, you don't have to feel embarrass. And, if I'm not wrong then this isn't the first time that I'm seeing you in shorts" he said making my eyes go wide.

"When?" I asked

"In your home when you were teaching Adeel how to do ramp walk" he laughed.

"O.M.G!! You're such a bad guy!" I huffed.

"But I still don't understand that why did you wrapped the bedsheet around your waist?"

"So that you don't see me in shorts!"

"Oopss!" He raised his hands in surrender.

I gave him a sheepish smile.

"C'mon now get up!" He said extending his hand which I happily took and stood up but kept on pulling my tee down. "Here, take this" he said handing me one of his lower.

"I swear, I bought enough of pyjamas to last me this trip, but I just don't know how it got misplaced" I said looking here and there.

"It might be here only, I'll help you in searching. But, for now you want to change or not?" He asked cocking his head to right.

Instantly I grabbed his lower and clutched it tightly placing it against my chest.

"Umm... I'll change and come". He just nodded. When I was about to turn and leave, when a light bulb went off in my mind, signalling, that his gaze will be very much focused on my bump. Just at the thought of it only, made my cheeks burned and immediately I shook my head, no no!!!

"Zain" I looked up to find his back was facing me, he was looking in the opposite direction. A smile stretched on my lips.

How come he always knows what's going on in my mind?

"You were saying something?" He asked without looking back.

"Nothing" I replied smiling and went out of his room.

***

"Zain, Nooooo!"

"Yes..."

"Shut up...."

"Oh C'mon Hani, you only need to take one step!"

"Yeah one step closer to death!" My grip on his t-shirt tightened.

"Astagfirullah! When I promised Mom that I'll not let anything happen to you, I meant every word" he said looking deep into my eyes.

"Yeah! You're keeping your promise very well" I said closing my eyes tightly.

"Hani, why are you scared? I'm with you in this" he said cupping my face.

"Nooooo...I love Adeel alot! O.M.G. who's gonna take care of him!" I again shouted and he cringed.

Smacking his forehead he replied, "Nothing will happen, trust me!"

"Never!" I frantically shook my head.

You see Zain has purposely brought me for Bungee Jumping and was now even convincing me to welcome death!

The jump is set at 160 metres and here people are saying it's not that high!!!

The safety team has also assured me that "there is no pressure on clients. You have to be relaxed. We don’t push anyone – if you’re not comfortable doing it, you can go down. It’s just you and your decision. But unless money is no object, you might want to think twice. Otherwise we’ll get people wasting the time of other jumpers in the queue."

But as you all are seeing I'm still not convinced.

But this was also not the thing we were doing tandem jump and as said by the team "hugging and holding each other tight is one of the safety measures. Usually we get louder screams on the tandem than on the single" that man laughed.

Hugging and holding each other tight????????

GAAAAHHHHHHH

Thinking about it only makes my heart jump out of my mouth.

"If you’re worried about safety then the safety team is very much adamant in checking that all measures are in place to make sure the site is as secure as possible." Zain said.

"Mam we really stress that safety is at the core of our operation, and we make sure people understand we have three backup systems, so if one went wrong there would be two others to take the load of the jumper." That man again assured me and I can only gulp his information.

"Enough now! It's time to jump" he said making me look at him in horror.

"Nooooo!" I said ever so softly, my heart beating in my mouth.

"Yes, just don't loose your grip on me!" He said pulling me closer to his chest. He lifted my hand and wrapped them around his neck not breaking the eye contact once also while he securely wrapped his arms around my waist making my breath hitch.

I could hear that man counting, but his voice sounded from very far because I was so lost in his eyes, the way his eyes roam all around my face, the way his gaze stopped at my lips making me bite my lower lip, his eyes darkening at my action and before I knew it I was jumping from the top and that too upside down.

My heart skipping many beats while I looked down at Dubai in the form of a jigsaw puzzle from up there. There was no way to escape the thrill of height in this extreme sports activity designed to get your heart racing.

I didn't even got the chance to scream because I was so lost in the view, the air hitting me with its full force. My eyes locked with him and he was already staring at me, not even once also his grip loosening, it was as if he himself didn't wanted to let me go away from him.

Before I could enjoy more we were already on the ground, the safety team rushing towards us.

"It's over?" I asked still lying down on the ground.

"Yes" he said smiling.

"But, I had just now started enjoying" I pouted.

"Someone was damn scared!" He commented and I hit him in his arm. We both got up, my head was still spinning, so he was still holding me by my waist.

"O.M.G. I did it....I finally jumped. Zain, I did bungee jumping. I can't believe this" I was now jumping up and down like a small child who had found a bar of chocolate after searching at every possible place in the house.

I clapped my hands as I jumped while he was just looking at me with a smile lingering on his face. But what shocked us both was the fact that while jumping up and down like a monkey I kissed him on his cheek.

EEEEHHHHHHH!!!!

I gasped as I placed my hand over my mouth, my eyes wide. He didn't said anything just placed his hand on his right cheek right where I've kissed him. Seconds turned into minutes as we stared at each other. But soon his ears turned pink, catching my attention and not only that his cheeks were also bright pink, making a smile stretched across my face. He was blushing!!!

EHHHHHH!!!

Soon my smile turned into a laugh, as I threw my head back and laughed, while he scratched the back of head, smiling sheepishly. I ruffled his hair lightly while he every so slowly grabbed the side of my face, bringing my face close to him and just like that he kissed me on my right cheek making a sudden hiccup rise as I stared at him with wide eyes.

He just winked and started walking ahead of me leaving me all flustered and breathing heavily.

Did he?

Did he just?

Did he just kissed?

Did he just kissed me???????

GGGAAHHHHHH!!!!

The exciting Al Maharba is centred round a mesmerising aquarium filled with colourful fish and plants, mirroring the Arabian Gulf theme of the Burj Al Arab. we headed to the aquarium-centred Al Maharba, one of Dubai's most iconic restaurants. The opulent golden entrance to the Al Mahara restaurant, which specialises in sea food.

Luxurious and ethereal, all the tables are placed around a circular aquarium filled with multitudes of colourful fish and even some sharks. It takes a team of seven to maintain the gigantic tank, including the expertise of a full-time marine biologist.

As guests ate food, soft music was played. Under the sea: Lunch at the Al Mahara was a magical affair, with tiny tables placed surrounding a gigantic aquarium. I presume the food is equally as incredible as the restaurant, but I was too thoroughly transfixed by the view to notice.

I was also told that proposals are a regular fixture at the romantic underwater haven, unsurprisingly.

What is surprising was that one woman had recently refused a proposal.

"That guy must have been so disheartened with the rejection!" I said in a small voice.

"That's why you should always be sure of what the other person might think about you before going down on your knees" he said taking a spoonful of his food.

"Says the guy who literally didn't let me sleep the whole night because he was so anxious!" I rolled my eyes taking a sip of my mocktail.

He scowled, "Oh please! I was very much sure that she'll say yes"

"Of course, of course!"

"You're so bad!" He commented making me gape at him.

"Excuse me, Mr. But if it wouldn't have been me then you wouldn't have gotten your perfect "Yes" and would have still fight over White Orchids or White Lily!"

"I knew it already that White Orchids was her favourite!"

"See you're still wrong, I like White Orchids and Hareem liked White Lily!" I said smacking my forehead.

"What? No!"

"Yes, you always gets confused!"

"Doesn't matter both of them are same"

"Should have said this in front of her and she would have literally slit you!"

He snorted.

"What are we doing next?" I asked.

"Desert Safari" he said and I was controlling myself to not jump again. All of a sudden he started laughing making me narrow my eyes at him. "You're such a child!"

"Being nineteen and a Mom doesn't make me a child!" I said pinching Adeel's nose who made a really cute face.

"Agreed. Seriously Hani, how did you managed all of this?" He asked

"And I've replied thousandth time that you can't clap from one hand! You all made me so comfortable that everything became so easy!" I smiled, "Do we have some time before Desert Safari so that I could change Adeel's diaper and might take a short nap!"

"Of course! Even I'm tired." He replied.

We quickly finished our lunch before returning back to our suite and immediately falling sleep, cuddling Adeel.
