You can only warn one who follows the message and fears the Most Merciful unseen. So give him good tidings of forgiveness and noble reward.
Surah Yaseen-11

One week later :

my best friend Arham called.

Arham," Assalam O Alikum dude."

Me," Wailikum Assalam where were you?"

Arham, " WHHATT?? Where were you ? I've been waiting for your call but you're dead or what?"

Me laughing loudly ,"Calm down bro! Okay okay it's my fault."

Arham angrily," NOOO...It's always your fault !"

Me laughing more harder, " That's not true! And you ...stop behaving like a girl..."

Arham started melting , " okay maybe I've created alot of drama.''

Asher, " Ahm..Atleast you realised."

Arham , " But I was thinking that you actually got to know about girls. "

Asher, " Oh shut up! why you called me? "

Arham laughing, " You always change this topic...but yeah I called you to remind that our CSS result will be out tomorrow morning. "

Asher, " Oh yess! JazakAllah for reminding."

Arham, " BarakAllah ..So shall we meet?"

Asher," Ofcourse I will come directly from office."

Arham angrily, " You stay quiet ! And stop this office thing.Take an off and come to our place."

Asher giggled, " No Arham look I can't .."

Arham intrupting ," No excuses...will wait for you at 9 a.m sharp."

Asher, " Listen to me atleast.."

Arham without listening to anything," Okay then see you there.Allah Hafiz."

He hunged up.

I smiled ,this man will never change.
He never listen to anyone, just do whatever he wants.

I took a half day off and went to our college .Our golden days with never ending fun ,
"I miss this place" I said.

Arham, " I miss this too bro!"

"Where will we checkout our result?" Me asked.

Arham "I talked to sir , he told me to come-in in five minutes."

We stood there talking while many other class fellows also gathered there making a big crowd.Everyone is so excited where there is a big roar of laughter at one side and a malequeien challege is going on the other.

Our teacher cameout with an open mouth ,filled with pleasure.He had the paper in his hands.

Suddenly there comes a moment of silence .Everyone came to a serious mode.

Arham to me with  a naughty smile, "Is my treat ready?I know you're getting the position this time!"

Me," Let's see.Maybe you'll be giving us treat. " I smiled.

He himself is a really hardworking student .

Sir asked all of us to enter and sit in the class room first.

We get settled.

Sir,
"Ahm Ahm I'm feeling so proud to see the result of this batch. Our institution is one of the leading institution of this city.When you joined us ,you believed us, we tried our best to gain your confidence and provided the best knowledge ."

Oh Allah please help.This man should break this suspense.I am sweating now.

"Our institute have graduated many popular and sucessfull people too and I hope you people will too enter in that list soon.From the really first day...."

Stop it man..I lowered my head and closing my eyes tigthly .I just don't want to hear his speech.

"The best thing I want to first tell you people is we get two position holders this year.I am so pleased to find our students are so hardworking and courageous."

Well, Thankyou but could you please stop this and tell me the names.

" You know I remember my days here like when I was of your age...."

What is wrong with this man?

" I know you're not liking my speech .Finally I'm telling you the names of our position holders.First one is Sarah Batool who scored 478/500 .I really proud of you girl."

A great loud clapping started for her an she deserves this applause .

"Another position holder is a boy, he got third position, his name is Asher Kareem who scored 470/500 . "

Whatt?? Is he read it right? I don't believe this!!
I was so shocked ,I freezed.

Arham hugged me tight ,he was so happy as his name is announced.He is the true friend Alhumdulillah.We celebrated the moment well .

Everyone was congratulating me more than that I was asked for treats.My ever hungry friends.

I was allowed to go when everyone made sure that they're done with their treats.

I thanked them .I left thinking that how Allah made this the last day is literaly so special for me.

****

I came home without going to the office.My eyes were glittering with joy ,I didn't called at home so nobody could know this.I want to checkout everyone's expressions myself.

 I entered the house, it was quite scilent , my rooms door was opened .I don't know where were mom, maybe sleeping .I heard Alisha's laughter ,I suppose someone is there.

I get in , her back was opposing me, she was on a call saying, "  That was not a hotel you know, I don't call this a hotel. "

She laughed and continued,
" Yah yah I do know him ,like only a stupid can take you to such place with nothing to eat for."

I turned back, wanted to leave the room then what I heard next was.
She , " Adore him? Keep thinking lady I won't. I don't think I would. "

She turned around as my shoe hit the door.I guess she realised that I've listened to what was she discussing.

I went out the room.My excitement is over now.

She cameout too," You're home?"
I didn't replied and left the house.

I don't know why I am feeling this way? Thats my fault that I took her to my favourite place and tried her to meet my old memories.

Fine I would never try this again.But she shouldn't be allowed to make fun of it.

I came home late that night.

Mom seems to be worried, I should tell her about that achievement atleast there is someone who cares,

Mom " Come , have dinner."

Me moving towards my room," I'm not hungry mom."

Alisha came in the room," Why aren't you eating Asher?"

She was not even looking worried maybe just fulfilling the formality.Maybe mom asked her so she's asking me that.

Me,"I don't want to talk right now."
.

Alisha ," Your wish."

I moved to the studing room.Sat there working .

Mom entered with a hot tea in hands, "Want tea?"

I nodded.

She handled me,sitting next and asking,"What happened?"

I smiled.

Me," Want to tell you something."

Mom nodded.

"By Allah's blessings & your prayers I secured third position in the whole city."

She got so happy.Her eyes are wattery , she kissed me on head saying," MashaAllah.When you got this news?Why you're telling me this big news like this? "

Me ," I wanted to make this moment special but.."

Her eyes widened," But??"

Me, " Nothing... I want you to be the first to know this."

I don't want her to worry about me.I wouldn't tell her anything bothring me.

Mom ," May Allah bless you with lots more.. Alisha dont even know this.You should tell her, she will be happy."

You are wrong here mom.I don't think she'll be happy .She doesn't care.

Me looking back to my laptop's screen," I'll tell her later ,let me finish this form first."

Mom , " Okay I'm going to tell her."
Leave it .What will she do to hear this?

I want to concentrate on my work, an effective way to stop worrying.

Mom left the room excitedly to tell her daughter-in-law this news.

****

Next day mom moved to my Uncle's place in the other city as he insisted her to spend time with them.And I didn't try to stop her because that would be great I don't need to pretend that everything is normal between me and Alisha.

Our days are in a such a manner that Alisha usually went out with her friends to somewhere for outing and I got a tough routien at office. We don't get time to talk and none of us even want to.I don't know but I am not so sure how to solve this? Like what is my mistake?

If she doesn't like anything she can directly tell this to me not to the whole world .But she chosed to discuss this to everyone except me.
