Zenish

I got home that evening freaking, Anum on the way try to ask what was wrong with me but I didn't tell her the story instead lie to her that I m not feeling too good. When I got home, I tried to build my courage to talk to papa first, not in a hell I m going to believe any stranger who claims me as his fiancé, only papa can clear my thoughts,

I tried to talk papa at dinner when he returned he ignored me and was lost somewhere, I knew something is stressing him but I prayed what I heard should be true in any sense. After dinner I made my papa's favorite tea and headed towards mama papa's room

When I reached home I heard mama and papa arguing. I know eavesdropping is a bad think but I didn't have any option, I came more closer to hear clearly

"She is our only daughter Rehan, we cant stake her. Please do something" I heard my mama crying. I so wanted to go in and console my mother but I couldn't what I next heard

"I know Safia, I'll do everything in my power to save my Zenish, even if it cost my life too" I heard papa assuring her

"But how will we get such big amount in this short time" My mama asked

"Don't worry I called some of my friends who can help us financially, I have talked to them lets just pray they agree to help me, just have faith in Allah and in me I wont let anybody take our Zenish" My papa said

Means he was right, he knew everything that my papa cannot afford such a big amount and despite of giving month he give him days for it. But he was wrong my papa wil never exchange me for money, he was wrong

What if your papa couldn't arrange money, then surely he will exchange for money by willingly or forcibly my subconscious said

But I don't know why someone wants to marry someone so desperately that he could threaten, what if he is some kind of obsessed stalker. What will I do now?

I should talk to him, but how will you talk to him and the biggest question why will he listen to you?

"What no please try to understand...please listen to me" I heard papa talking on phone

"What they refused to help right no one cares today no one" My mama said in tears

"I m feeling helpless now" my papa said sat beside mama

I never saw my parents so miserable and vulnerable especially papa he was the one solving everything in life either it is smallest thing. He fixed everything in life now seeing him helpless clenched my heart, knowing that I cant help them is the biggest regret

But wait why cant I help him maybe talking to that arrogant jerk can solve something or derive a solution

"Papa mama" I knocked

"Come in Zee" I heard his heavy voice

I entered and put the tea on the table, they were pretending hard not to show they were crying few moments before. They were looking everywhere but me

"You both are disaster in pretending, so please stop it" I said and they looked at me

"You should go and sleep Zenish" my papa ordered me bit rudely

"I heard everything" As I said they both looked more miserable

"Zenish..."

"Its okay papa I know you love me so much to let go, I don't have any complain but we have to fix this right" I assured him while they both nodded

I kneeled down infront of them and hold their hands

"Do you both trust me?" I asked

"What type of question is this, of course we do" papa said

"Then give me permission to meet him and talk" As I said I felt their hands loose

"No I don't trust that man he has the audacity to tell me he knew everything about us can do anything he is a threat I can't let you meet him" My papa got up

"Papa I met him today, I didn't knew he came in front of me when we were doing shopping and told me who he was and what you both have talked. Just once permit me to meet him I assure you I wont meet him alone it would be a public place, maybe I could talk sense in him" I tried to reason

"No Zenish has arrogant rich spoilt brat, I cant permit you no" He said

"Papa please just once let me help I cant sit and wait for days to end maybe he would realize what he is doing is wrong" I explained

"Fine but u will go with Zaryaab, he will be there when u will talk to him is that clear" I nodded

*********************

The whole night I was thinking what if he wont listen or refuse to talk what will I do then, I prayed Fajr as I got up

I waited for sunrise and decided to call him but wait I didn't have his number

Great Zenish just great my subconscious mocked

I went to papa's room, fortunately it was open I sneak out and saw some business card were there I searched for Shayyan Ahmed but I really couldn't find

"Here it is take it" A hand stretched towards me I was startled and look up to saw papa standing behind me

"Searching this right" I muttered sorry and took the card

God this was embarrassing

I dialed the number, it was ringing the more it ring the more I got nervous finally it was lifted. As you expect that someone will greet you but no I heard him snapping at me

"Its better be important"

My throat got dry I didn't know what to say nervousness was on its peak

Zenish focus

"Is this Shayaan Ahmed" I asked gathering my courage although I know that he is Shayaan Ahmed because no one has this scarry and intimidating voice

"Yes who is it"

"I m Zenish ,,um Zenish Shah" I heard a long silence

Well you might be thinking silence cant be heard let just say I didn't heard anything

"Oh you, yesterday you snapped me and now calling early morning care to tell why the hell you disturbed me" He asked rudely

Is it important to be rude

"I need to talk to you, can you meet me" I asked sternly

"Woah you disagreed to let me in your house and now you want to talk to me" He sounded amused

"I really need to talk to you, beside my brother will be with me" I said

"Well you should know my time is precious not any one can meet me at their will, I meet them when I want" He said with that annoying arrogant attitude of his

"Listen Mr. your time maybe precious but here it is about life so if you didn't meet me I'll barge in your office by hook or crook" I threaten him

This man is getting on my nerves

"Oh I m scarred" He mocked

Calm down Zee I tried to take deep breath in and out preventing myself from bursting from anger

"Listen I want to talk will you meet me or not" I tried not to yell and take calmly but it wasn't helping in anyway

"Fine at 5 in café meet me and be on time, remember time is money"

"Of course" I hung up

This man is really annoying

Ya Allah help me in convincing him please
