Those who have not yet read EPILOGUEpt.1 please read it as this one is the continuation and you may not understand without reading it. And pardon me for my low-class English as I didn't want to make y'all wait any longer, so scribbled everything quickly.

Warning: I wrote everything in a cut and short manner as I didn't want to elaborate more. Sorry.

•••

The Bet! The first-ever bet I had with Talha and the conversation we had for one long hour. What was all that? Even though everything happened at night, the day before I called him, I had forgot to say many parts to Talha. I know I can be forgetful most of the times. But forgetting something this serious was a first to me.

Nevertheless, this all felt like a dream to me. So surreal yet real. I, Naiza Rehman, said to Mr Cute aka Shaym Muhammed that I had a crush on him. Talha had asked me numerous times from where I got the guts. Well, even I don't know. I still was not able to believe everything what I have said, including sending the link to my book.

Oh my Allah, what have I done? Will I regret?

Well, for the present, I don't. As I had told to Talha in our conversation that I don't regret saying everything to Shaym because I feel like a burden from my heart and mind was gone. Even he replied, "Of cause Naiza! Why would you regret! It's the best thing you did!"

Talha mentioned on all the possibilities that Shaym would read my book stating that I wrote about him, so he will surely read, and so on. However, I had a feeling like he would not be reading as he mentioned that he will try to read when he gets the time. Now, will he get the time and then read?

I don't know. I don't know anything.

Anyway, one thing was sure that I was not that old Naiza who used to wait for his reply and occupy my thoughts pondering about him. I was NOT. I didn't even feel like saying this to my friends, which was a first to me. He was cool when I said I had a crush on him, so mentioning this to my friends should be great right? But somehow, I didn't feel like saying. It felt like the whole crush thing was not a part of my life anymore. I felt everything childish and too stupid. And of course, Shaym knowing everything felt like no big deal for me. Naiza was not at all the old Naiza.

Moreover, the conversation I had with Shaym happened during November 2020 and look at what year and month it is now. April 2021. If I was that old Naiza I would have written all these the next or that week itself. But look at me now, procrastinating to write for months as I was not interested to write about him or these crush things anymore. And many thoughts occupied me from writing further.

I didn't even ponder much on whether he would read my book or not. However, after two days, I got notification from Snapchat from his name. At that time, I was scared and excited to know what he had sent me. So, without opening the message he had sent, I messaged Talha saying something has received from Shaym's side. He urged me to open it soon without delaying it.

Eventually I decided to open his message after five minutes.

"Amazing story"

I can't believe I asked him random stupid questions! Argh! I should have taken this opportunity to ask some serious quations. But I didn't want to make him feel uncomfartble. And one thing I was sure that he now knows me too well after reading my book. But still, I wanted to ask a few serious things to him. Argh Why am I like this.

The time flew and there was nothing I had to do in my phone so I kept it aside and decided to watch a movie. And of cause, I had said to Talha what and all I conversed with Shaym and he even scolded me for not asking serious questions. The questions which needed real answers. I know I can be fool sometimes.

I watched a random movie with my sister but something in me was making me feel uneasy. It was like that day, the day I decided to confess my crush to him. I hurriedly got up from my couch, grabbed my phone which was on the charging point and rushed to my room. The time was 1 a.m. I kenw it was not a great idea to message him again after saying bye. But I wanted this lump in my chest to go. So, keeping my pride aside, I messaged him.

Helloo

Hello

actually I don't like asking questions like this to a person😬

but can I just ask two questions?

Aah?

didn't you seriously know that I had a crush on you

like you didn't understand?

A few times I did understand after seeing some of your antics...

aah 😅

😄

I know asking this is a foolish thing but still

you know, that day

near the parking area you were talking with Talha and you stared at me while I was standing near the café

why was that? 😬

When 🙄

one day😂

who knows😄

😂😂😂

one exam time

you came to write your supplemetry exam

I don't remember...

😂

you stared very roughly that's why asked

hahaaa...

you may have imagined like that

no 😂

ehh

then I don't know...who remembers these things 😂

aah yeah

I knew you may not remember it😁

😅

you angrly stared and I thought you understood everything and you were angry at me

😬

no

aah whatever

haa

oka then tata

I didn't wait for his reply and kept my phone aside! I finally asked the two things which I really wanted to know. The main reason why I asked him these two questions specifically was because most of the readers asked me many times about this. And I never had an answer to it. Even though I didn't get a proper answer to my second question I asked to him, I felt at ease after asking. I felt like I was chatting with my friend and not my crush.

And just like this, Forbidden Crush has ended in real life and in book. I know many might not have expected an end like this in this book when they started reading it. But real life is like this and will be like this unless Allah plans something else.

Also about his reply to your messages on his birthday, if you all know him well you can easily guess what his reaction would've been. He just send emojis hehe.

THE END

'

Assalamu alaikum

And that's the end of Forbidden Crush

On a side note;

I really get uncomfortable when many ships me with him and wish me ending up with him. I don't know why but I never liked seeing messaged like this so if that's what you really wish then pray to Allah instead of saying it to me like Naiza you may get him and so on.

Also, I've skipped many many scenes in our chat as I didn't want to add everything. There are also many reasons why I didn't update for so long and one main reason was i lost my interest to write this story further.

Thank you for staying with me till now and supporting me. You can leave your views or any questions here☺️

In Sha Allah I'll update my remains books after Ramadan so stay tuned

Lots of love
