Hussain's POV:

'Where are you going at this time, douche?', asked Waqas in raspy voice with groggy eyes as I put on my sneakers.

'For hunting jelly fishes', i said dryly and a grin made its way on my face as I realized that I spoke Leeha's dialogue.

'Idiot kahin ki'..

'Stop being a copy-dog!', said Waqas boringly as he realized as well that i used Leeha's words, and snuggled in his blanket as i grabbed my phone and headphones.

'Its copycat not dog, you pea- brain!', i corrected him looking myself into the mirror.

'But i prefer dog. Cat sounds feminine but sure.. since you yourself is effeminate then we can agree on cat too', said Waqas smirkingly as he suppressed a yawn and i threw the cushion towards him that landed on his face.

'Sain.. You bastard!', yelled Waqas struggling to get out of the covers but fell on the floor on his butt with a thud.

'Your welcome. Em out!', i chirped waving at him as he shot glares at me with his strangled self lying on the floor.

'Do you mind telling me that where are you going looking like an ultimate hobo at this early hour?', asked Waqas frustratingly climbing back on the bed.

'For a walk', i stated briefly.

'Since when do you have started going for a walk? Because i distinctly remember that you.. my man.. is not a fricking morning person', said Waqas crossing his arms behind his head.

'Stop using your brain too much, Waqas. Because you already have a one of size of peanut.', i back answered while getting out of my room.

Climbing down the stairs catiously and making every possible attempt to not to produce any sound, i made it to the lounge and picked up a water bottle from kitchen.

Seeing the door of Shehry's room slightly opened, i peeped through the gap and saw Shehry and Atif cuddled up in the bed.

I tried my best not to erupt into laughters as i saw Atif's hand lying on Shehry's face and Shehry's right leg wrapped around Atif's torso and both of them sleeping with their mouths slightly agape.

Now that would be something to talk about..

Pulling out my phone, i crept into the room and clicked their cute-yet-so-gayish photo.

Some people are going to explain some serious shit..

Smirking to myself i stealthily slid out of room. After locking the main door carefully behind me i released a huge breath.

You guys must be thinking why so much cautious?

Well de facto whatever Waqas said was one hundred and one percent true. I am not morning person.

But today i felt like going for a walk and stretching my limbs a bit.. And if the rest of the people in my house came to know about that then i would be ridiculed for a month or so..

That i am going to be anyways.. But yeah never mind.

Thrusting the headphones in my ears, i played 'Sexy back' by Justin Timberlake and started trotting.

It was 7 a.m in the morning and the sky was partly cloudy. A few people were to be seen jogging and strolling and the roads were deserted.

After few minutes i picked up my pace and started jogging with my head bobbing to the beat.

Dirty babe

You see these shackles

Baby I’m your slave

I’ll let you whip me if I misbehave

It’s just that no one makes me feel this way..

After jog of 2 miles i reached at our colony park. Passing through the gate i nodded at the gate keeper who smiled at me.

The park was quite spacious and grassy..just like all parks. Nothing's new.

People were running around with water bottles in their hands and sweating slightly. Some were doing exercise on the grassy carpet and some were just strolling around in pairs, chattering and laughing.

As i was already warmed up so i decided to take few rounds of the park. So i started running on the concreted track that was 100 meters long.

Some amateur runners were running at fast pace, swishing past me. Few children were also playing around and trying to copy what their elders were doing.

After 3 rounds i was out of breath with my body sweating heavily. So i decided to sit down for a bit.

Pulling out the headphones from my ears, i twisted the bottle cap open and started gulping the water.

'Meow come back! Now..Pwease!', grumpy voice of a child grabbed my attention and i saw a chubby child standing near a tree with his eyes focused on the branch of a tree.

I looked at the tree and saw a small white furred kitten sitting on the branch, looking somewhat scared.

What the fuck, kitty? If you were that much scared over there so why did you even go there?

Cats are the most unpredictable creatures for me in this world, of course after girls. Girls are securing the first place since forever.

Before i could come out of the whirlpool of my own thoughts and walk to that tiny chubby kid,i saw a girl coming over to him.

May be his sister or stuff..

'What happened, young man?', asked that girl politely from the kid who was looking like on the verge of tears.

'Meow.. She ish there and she ish not coming down.', said that kid sniffing and pointed his finger at the kitten.

As i was sitting at the wooden bench near the tree so i could easily hear them.

The girl was in navy blue top with a black shrug and black jeans. Her dark brown hair were tied in a pony tail with few strands hanging around freely that she was tucking behind her ear now and then.

Cute.

Someone spoke inside me.

Wtf Sain? Stop checking a random chick out.

Scolding my inner perv, i averted my gaze and stared looking around.

'How did she go there?', voice of that girl got ears perked up again and once again i was all attentive to them.

You are such an asshole, Sain.

Something echoed inside me again, making the bell ring.

'You are an ultimate asshole, Saroo'

Leeha's words flashed across my mind and i shaked my head dismissively.

I need to get her silly words out of my mind..

'I don't know. A dog wash running afhter her and she ran up to the tree and now she ish not coming down. Will you help me, pwease?', i saw that little guy making a request to that girl with watery eyes.

'Okayyy.. Only if you are not going to cry.', said that girl smiling as she advanced her pinky towards him.

'I chrossh my heart and i do pinky promish, i won't chry', said that kid quickly rubbing his eyes and he did that pinky promise thing or whatever was that.

'Okay. Hold this.', said that girl giving the kid her phone and rolled up her sleeves.

Soon she started trying to climb up the tree that had few branches here and there on lower trunk. Placing her feet one by one on the branches carefully, she tried to grab the higher branch.

As it was quite difficult to get access to that branch so she tried to stand on the lower branch on her toes but that only made her to lose her balance and she slipped down to another bump.

Shit!!

'Dammit', she yelled as she jerked her left arm. There were some scratches on her arm and droplets of blood started oozing out from them.

'Are you okay?', asked the kid anxiously.

'Yeahh.. Em all good, baby boy. We are gonna get the Meow back', she said in determined tone and started climbing again.

Monkey..

My heart was constantly saying that i should help her but my mind opposed the decision.

'Come here kitty.. Meow is such a good kitty', the voice of girl made me snap out of my thoughts and i saw her now sitting on that branch where that kitty was sitting.

'Meow.. Go to herr.. She ish nysh.. She will bring youu backh', that kid was encouraging the kitty who was not looking satisfied with his persuasion.

'Come on Meow.. I have some shit..i mean work to do as well.. Come here', said that girl advancing to the kitty with her hand trying to grab it.

The girl was looking now beyond pissed.

Too much for being helpful.

At last the kitty decided to give up her 'fazool k nakhray' and moved to the girl who held her in her arms carefully.

'Yayyeee!! She got Meow.. She got Meow!', the chubby kid was jumping up and down like kangaroo with pure happiness dripping from his voice.

Thank God!

'Here you go', said the girl triumphantly as she sat on her knees and gave the kid his kitten.

'Tank you shoo mush', said the kid grinning and kissed her cheek.

The girl was at first surprised at his action as her eyes went wide open but soon a smile crept over her face and she nodded her head.

'Now go to your parents, Bye!', said the girl as the kid handed over her phone.

'Bye, Mish', shouted the kid as he ran away with kitten in his hands.

I saw her waving at him with a smile but soon her smile was replaced with a pained expression as she looked at the scratches on her arm.

Ohh..

My heart felt a pang at seeing her smile turning into scowl.

Soon she rolled down her sleeves and walked away, leaving me sitting there and watching her getting out of my sight.
