"Haider." His feet stopped on his mother's voice.

"Any progress?" She asked and without turning he shook his head as no and walked up to the stairs to reach his room.

"Rock star."

"Rock star."

"Rock star."

"Sir you should hurry. The crowd is waiting." He looked up at his manager and nodded.

"I'm coming." He said and took a bottle of water to drink.

Closing his eyes,he leaned back on the sofa and took deep breaths to calm his heart which was again getting restless.

"See what I become for you." He mumbled under his lips.

Didn't let himself lost in the memories,he got up and walked toward the stage where his fans were waiting for him. The huge concert was going and he was the main attention of the concert than other singers.

"The new voice of the country,the beat of the hearts,our rock star Kashan Hussain." And announcement of his name rang in the stadium where the concert was held.

And the crowd cheered their lungs out with applauds,shouts and claps.

Taking the guitar,he moved forward and looked at the huge amount of his fans cheering for him but all disappeared and he could see only one person

"Kashan."

"Kashan."

"Kashan."

Hands in the air,she was telling his name. He could only see her around.

"Hey rockstar." She called him and then giggled while he closed his eyes to stop his tears.

As he opened his eyes,he looked again at the crowd which was in front of him. The fans who were crazy for him. But she was not there he wanted to see. Turning to the cameras which were covering the concert, he moved his lips slowly.

"For you."

"Aapi come hurry up." She turned as her cousin Marva called her.

Before she could knew,she was pulled out by Marva and was dragged by her toward main hall. She was not understanding what she was doing.

"What happened Marva?" Asking her,she looked around to find the reason .

"Rockstar." And her heart beat increased on the words Marva said.

"God Aapi he's going to sing." Excitedly Marva jumped on sofa while her eyes moved toward TV screen.

Her heart stopped for a second to beat as she saw him. His eyes were closed and then he opened his eyes turning to the cameras. He mumbled something and here her lips moved reading his lips.

"For you." With smile and tears she whispered and sat next to marva

Her eyes were fixed on the TV screen where she could see him. Taking the guitar, he start singing and her lips stretched into smiled as she was witnessing people's craziness for him and that's all she wanted.

"Is my son ready?" He turned on his mother's call.

"I'm. How I'm looking?" He asked while Mrs Imtiaz went closer to him.

Kissing his forehead,she smiled looking at her handsome son.

"Mashallah Very handsome." Said Mrs Imtiaz and he smiled.

"Is she ready?" He asked and she nodded.

"Come on now. The ritual is about to start. All are waiting for groom." Said Mrs Imtiaz and he smiled while nodding.

"I'm ready. Let's go." Saying,he took steps with his mother and walked out of his room.

Going out in lawn where the function was held,his heart was beating fast as he was feeling strange. Smile was not leaving his face and he was strange too that why he was smiling so much.

"Shahvaiz." He looked at the group of his friends and cousins standing.

They followed him toward the stage and he took seat on the swing which was beautifully decorated with flowers. Hall was shinning with twinkling lights. All the guest's eyes were on him who was now feeling nervous all of sudden.

"Relax dude." His best friend Mobeen said.

"I'm okay." He answered and his eyes moved at the entrance where she was coming under the yellow dupatta which girls were holding around.

He couldn't see her face as it was hidden in her veil of dupatta. Taking slow steps toward him,she was making his heart to run fast with her every step while she was smiling under the veil and could feel his eyes on her. She was made sit next to him and their shoulder touched. Both of their hearts beat in the beautiful rhythm of tingling.

"Shall we start?" Asked his friends and soon the ritual started of Mehndi.

All the married women first came forward to apply Mehndi on the leaf placed on their plams and made them eat sweets. As the women left all their cousins jumped on the stage to tease them. Both were smiling on the happiness coming to them. As the ritual ended, she was taken inside by her friends and they start applying Mehndi on her beautiful hands. The Mehndi of his name.

He went to his room as the ritual ended. Taking his mobile,he typed something and smiled and went to change.

💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

Bringing his head out of his room,he looked around to check if the place was empty. Checking fully,he stepped out of the room and slowly close the door. His feet moved toward left side while his heart was beating as hell in chest with the fear to be caught. Stopping in front of the door of the room,he took deep breaths and then knocked the door. On first knock, the door opened but no one came forward.

"Come on now." He said keep his voice as slow as he could

"I'm not coming. Mom would be angry." She said and he groaned in frustration.

"Oh come on." Saying,he entered the room and turned behind the door where she was hidden.

He stopped on her place as his eyes fall on her. In yellow dress,hands filled with Mehndi and the colour of shyness on her cheeks, he felt his heart floating in her beauty.

"Hmm...come." Coming to his senses,he looked away from her face and then held her wrist carefully, not wanted to ruined her Mehndi, he walked out of the room with her.

"We'll be caught." She whispered moving with him.

"Shhh...just come." He said and both moved out of the house and walked toward the pool side.

"Its wrong." She said as she freed her hand from him.

"Oh really! Then why you asked me to make pastries for you? Its also wrong to make your would be husband to cook!" He said annoyed and she couldn't hold her giggle.

"Shahi just look at your face. By the way how much time you spent in bakery for pastries?." She asked and giggled more while taking a seat near the pool and slightly let her feet to dip in the cold water.

"Shut up. Stop laughing okay." He said taking seat next to her.

"Shahii." He turned to her on her call which was filled with tease.

Shahvaiz's POV.

"Shahii." I turned to her on her call and I could see a mischievous smile on her beautiful face.

"If you giggled one more time,I'm telling you Shanze I'll throw you in this pool." I said turning to her and there she giggled more.

"Hahaha...you can't because it will cause my Mehndi to ruin." She said showing me her hands and I smiled as I saw my name written on her hand.

"Why you called me? Tell me hurry and then we'll go to our rooms. If mom caught us it will be bad." She said looking at the water.

"Can't you sit for few seconds quietly." I said and turned to my left side to take the box which was placed there.

"I haven't seen you for a week and you are so eager to go." I said while opened the box.

"So someone was missing me?" On her words,I looked up at her and smiled.

"In your dreams." I said and placed that box in front of her.

"Eat now." I said placing the spoon near the pastries.

"My favorite." She said and took the spoon and start eating.

"It's yum. By the way who made it?" She asked koikeubv at me while taking the pineapple from the pastry.

"Our neighbours. Stupid." I said and looked away annoyed.

"Really!" She laughed and it made me more annoyed.

"What's this?" She said and my heart beat increased but I didn't turn to her.

"Vaiz." She called and I turned to her.

"What happened?" I asked looking at her.

"What's this?" She asked pointing toward her hand and I looked at her hand where she was holding a beautiful ring.

"Don't tell me you're going to propose me just a day before our wedding?" I said shocked.

"Vaiz." She didn't listen what I said because she knew me better than me.

"I placed it here." I said looking down.

"Why?" She asked and I looked at her.

"For you." I said which brought a smile on her lips and that's all I wanted.

Shanze's POV.

"For you." His words brought a smile to my lips.

"Are you proposing me when I'm already agree for this marriage!?" I asked looking at him and then at the ring I was holding.

"Just wanted you to know that what this relationship means to me." He said looking down.

"You still love her?" I asked the question which I never wanted to ask but somewhere this thought was disturbing me that he might in love with her.

"No. The day she slapped me,pushed me and showed me my place,I never return to those ways. In all these years,not for once I missed her. Sometime I felt it was my stupidity considering that affection as love. Sometimes it hurts considering myself not to be loved by the one whom maybe I loved. But you know what!" He paused and turned his head toward me.

"Why I choose you to be my partner!?" He asked and I shook my head as no

"Because I know you can be my best companion as you are my best friend. You know me well and somewhere I'm having feeling that one day I'll be crazy for you." His confession made me smile.

"Just wanted you to know that this decision I took is because I want this. I want you all the time with me,my all life with me. And I want to live a happy life filled with love friendship, smiled,fights with you." He said and I gave a nod in agreement.

"I never loved someone. But I promised you that it will you I'll love. But promise me you'll be my best friend always." I said placing my hand in front of him which he accepted and nodded.

"We'll be friends first and after that every other relation come." He said and I smiled.

"Can I have this ring now in my finger?" I asked and he nodded happily while taking the ring from me and slightly slid it in my finger.

"Thank you. And don't forget to bring my chocolates tomorrow." I said looking at him .

"What chocolates? Tomorrow is our wedding." He said and I turned to him fully.

"I know and I want a lots of chocolates when we'll meet after wedding." I said and saw a naughty smile on his lips.

"On our wedding night?" I startled and looked away on his words.

"Shut up." With beating heart,I got up from the ground and he stood up next to me.

"You've start blushing." Leaning closer to my face,he whispered which made my heart to jump in my chest but I didn't look at him. I just couldn't.

"Emm..hmmm." We turned on the voice and freeze on our spot as we saw Baba and mom standing.

"What's happening here?" Mom asked coming closer to us.

"No..nothing mom. Shanze what are you doing here? Don't you know that we shouldn't meet up before our marriage?" He said and I narrowed my eyes at him who was pretending to be so innocent.

"I know who is so innocent here." Mom said and held our ears.

"Mom it's not my fault. Its his." I said and tried to free my ear.

"Lair. It was you who wanted to eat pastries." He protested and tried to free his ear from his mother's hold.

"Stupid kids." Hugging us both, mom said and I smiled looking at him who was smiling too.

"Now go to your rooms and try to not meet until your Nikah." Mom said which made me look down as I felt strange feelings developing inside me on the thought of going to be his wife.

"You're blushing again." Whispering to me,he walked toward house while I tried to hide my blush and smile.

"Stupid." Saying, I moved inside with Baba and Mom.

Third person's POV.

Lifelessly, he was walking. The were watching him going and since 10 years they were witness his arrival and then departure. Nothing  changed in these 10 years. Holding the bouquet of red roses,his feet were moving and as the destination was coming closer,he was trying to bring a hope in him. Taking a deep breath,he pushed the door and stepped in the room.

His eyes fell on the person in front of him. Tears brimmed up in his eyes while his heart arch in pain. Taking slow steps which were telling that he was losing his hope. The hope of his life.

"Every time, everyday after telling you that how much I hate you,I return to you." He said looking at her who was laying in front of him lifelessly.

"I hate you. I really hate you. But I hate myself more because after hating you so much I can't stop myself from loving you." He was saying looking at her face which was covered with oxygen mask.

His eyes moved around to see the life support machines which were around her since 10 years.
.

"I'm calling you and you're not listening. You said that you'll come back when I'll call you then why are you not coming to me? Why are you not answering me?" He said and cried while the roses fell down from his hand on ground and he rested his head on the bed with many tears left his eyes.

"Haaniyah come back please." He cried more.

"Haaniyah." He cried taking her name.
