He was sitting sadly in front of me when I was checking the result of entrance exam. I was able to see how sorrowful he was, but reason was unknown to me!

"I'm selected" I exclaimed happily, he suddenly looked at me with brokenhearted feelings on his face. Though he must be didn't understand the meaning of those english words but the happiness dancing of my face was enough to tell everything.

"Wapis Kado jauna hai tennu?"

(When you've have to go back?)

He questioned Without meeting eyes with me, but his heavy voice was addressing the condition of his heart.

"Parso chali jaungi"

(Day after tomorrow)

I replied meekly, he  saw me for a very long moment and nodded before going out from the home, I was confused because I watched a different Abbas that time, who didn't smile with my happiness. But at that time I ignored everything and only focus on my plan about admission.

"Oh no... I have to wash dishes and clean the kitchen" I suddenly remember and made myself stand to go towards the kitchen but my brain was busy in planing for my admission and all.

I was washing dishes when a big arm wrapped around me from behind which made me jump very high, "Aaaahh" I screamed in frightening situation but the grip became tight around my waist. I was feeling scared, my heart was beating very fast and hands were shivering.

"Shama" He muttered and my tears made their way out from my eyes.

"Hun ki hoya?" He asked and I held the kitchen slab with both hands and leaning forward I cried out.

( what happened Now?)

"Tumne mujhe dara diya"

(You made me scared)

I muttered still in crying situation and he envelope his both arms around my waist.

"Meri jhalli! Dariya na kar"

(Oh my idiot girl no need to be scared)

He said with a smile but I was still crying with my heavily beating heart. He turned around me and I was only watching his face which was smiling. After wiping my tears he drew out two band of flowers from his pocket  and wrapped in my either wrists, he was trying to make our every moment of togetherness memorable by doing all these things.

"Ye kaam Main kar lawanga, tu araam kar"

(I'll do this work, you leave this)

He said about the kitchen work and caressed my back after embracing me in his strong grip and kissed my forehead one more time before asking

"Shama ki hoya hai das men'nu, tu jab to shahir to wapis ayi hai, udaas hai! Tu pure ik mahine which ik wari wi nhi muskurai"

(Shama tell me what happened? In this whole one month you've not been smiling only for once)

After that he didn't say a single word but only run his fingers in my hair making me shiver from inside and I didn't had words to answer him.

==============

I was ready to leave for City, I was feeling so happy and excited to join college, its like a dream come true for me. I was the first or maybe second girl of my village who was continuing her studies, all Thanks to my husband who doesn't treat me like a free slave but gave me permission to study further. I respect him for than anyone else and he deserve that respect but sometimes life play a game with us, it give a thing and takes another....

"Dhyaan rakhna apna, time par khana khaa lena aur jaldi so jaana... Warna bimar ho jaoge"

(Take care of yourself, eat food on time and go to sleep early, otherwise you will go sick)

I told him before zipping my last bag and he smiled sadly.

"Shama mat jaa, rehen de e parhai likhayi... Tu mere kool reh jaa"

(Don't go Shama. Leave your studies and stay here with me)

First time ever Abbas demanded me to leave my study which snatch the land from beneath my frame. I knew he didn't want to send me back but I had done all the efforts to get admission in BA LLB, and when I was selected he was saying to leave my dream?

''kya? Lekin... "
(What... but..)

Though I was feeling a flood inside me but I was only able to utter those two words, other than that I was traumatized by the thought of separation from my dreams. My eyes drop two tears and he slowly cup my face with both hands and kissed my forehead.

"Men'nu sab khabar hai, tu jauna chaundi hai... Ja.. Aur wadia wakeel ban kar wapis aauna."

(I know th at you wanna go... So go and come back after becoming a great lawyer.)

I close my eyes with a sigh of relief after listening that and the tears drop off from my eyes. He took a step back after saying that and I was confused on his sudden change of decision, but somehow I digest that truth.
Abbas wanted to drop me to city but I refused and said to drop me only to bus stand and he got agree.

As the bus to moving away from the village I was

With every passing mile the bus was going away from the village and I was going closer to my dreams but unfortunately the nightmare of my life wasn't leaving me alone. Holding thousand thoughts in my head I was watching outside the bus window and soon the bus reached my destination.

My fragile figure lift my two heavy suitcases along with A big handbag and struggling with them I somehow managed to step towards the door of bus.

"When you already knew that you have to come back after a month then why you took all your clothes?"  I jumped on my place after listening that voice, travelling my gaze everywhere I found Zamil standing a few steps away from bus and then approaching towards me. I was surprised to found him there to receive me!

"What happened Shama?" Zamil asked with a smile while lifting my Suitcases. I shook my head and try to took the suitcases from his hands but Zamil already stepped out from the bus.

"Why you come here?" I asked going after him and he shrugged like a smart one.

"How could I forget to welcome Miss Shama?" He said in his charming style and my heart skipped a beat on the way of his talking.

"Um... Thanks.. But I didn't need help" I replied and Zamil took step towards a taxi, I also follow him as there wasn't any chance for refusal.

"But I'm always here to help you" Zamil said happily and Soon we both hopped in the taxi.

"Where is Richa?" I asked and Zamil rolled his eyes.

"She is Busy in enjoying bike riding with Vihaan" Zamil's reply gave an unknown pang to my heart and my eyes became wet, after remembering something. without saying anything I started looking out from window just to hide my tears from Zamil.

"I was missing you... I.. I Mean we all were missing you" Zamil said and suddenly altered his sentence while hiding his embarrassed situation. But the environment of taxi was seems so heavy with an awkward silence, but my sniffing voice suddenly raise in the air making Zamil turn his head towards me.

"Shama are you crying? Tell me what happened?" He asked and I shook my  head while wiping my tears.

"Nothing happen" I muttered

"Look here" He ordered me politely, though I wanted not to obey but there was something in his voice which melt my heart and I looked directly In his eyes. "Tell me" holding my one hand in between his both hands Zamil asked while shifting towards me, for two minutes I forgot about my worried and everything. I only wanted to keep peeping in his eyes.

'What, are you doing Shama?' My subconscious scolded me, somehow I controlled my heart and pull my hand from his grip with a jolt.

"I'm fine nothing happen" I told Zamil and started looking outside view, again. Zamil was looking confused on my behaviour but he also stay quiet.

''Shama we have reached" Zamil lightly shook my shoulder, dragging me out of the trance, I was enough busy in my thoughts that didn't even knew when did we reached two or three minutes ago.

"Let's go inside" Zamil said enthusiastically, but I only nodded.

"How much bhai ji?" I asked to taxi driver about the fare but Zamil drew out money from his pocket.

"Zamil please don't do these things, I don't want to be indebted in front of you" I said trying to stop him to pay money but he already paid the same .

"Shama I'll explain you everything later, for now just take some rest and be ready for joining college, you will need energy to focus on your studies so don't waste it here." I was answerless after listening the reply so without going to any kind of debate i just nodded unwillingly and we both went to the flat. Zamil unlock the door and I didn't utter a single word and started placing my luggage in my room. I wasn't feeling comfortable with Zamil's presence around me but I couldn't do anything. After all that was his flat, I couldn't say him to leave. He was trying to talk to me so he was starting his conversation with random topics and I was ignoring all the topics and keep setting my cupboard. But maybe my ignorance hurt him that's why he left me alone in the room.

"Shama" After some five minutes I listened that and turned around, Zamil was standing with a smile on his face and two mugs of hot steaming beverage in his hands. "come.. Lets have tea together" He added while coming towards bed and place the mugs on side table. I suddenly wipe my tears and nodded.

I actually needed tea at that time because I was facing headache due to over crying.

"Shama at least tell about your problem, maybe I'll help you" Zamil ask politely and I shook my head. Meanwhile I noticed footstep sound coming towards my room and Richa arrived.

"Shamaaaaa" She chirped my name with full of energy

"Your friend is crying and not telling me anything" Zamil complaints and Richa sat beside me, first she was surprised to saw me crying but then she tried to ask my problem but I just shook my head.

I couldn't tell anyone about my problem but I wanted to cry more and more...

And I was doing so...
I was only crying...

"Shama at least tell me what happened?" Richa asked one more time but I again didn't say anything, making Richa worried for me. "She was crying when she was in her village" Richa informed Zamil and try to sooth me, but by then I was crying hiding my face in my palms.

"Shama stop trying dude" Zamil kneeled down in front of me and Richa gave me a side hug.

"I.. I won't go back... I won't go back ever in my whole life" I cried out while hugging back Richa.

None of them could understand my feelings so I didn't share either.

"Okay no need to go back, but at least tell us what's your problem?" Zamil asked and I break the hug with Richa.

"Leave me alone for some time" I requested but both of them shook their heads. Why they are so stubborn? They didn't left me alone for a single sec, Richa keep hugging me and I keep crying without saying anything.

After some half an hour I flow down all the tears I had in my eyes, and felt light.

"Chalooooo... Rona dhona band karo. Tum ladkiyon ki aakho me pya problem hoti hai?"

(Come on... Stop crying! What you girls have problem in your eyes?)

Zamil entered in the room with a big tray which was full of delicious dishes and chocolate pastries, which were brought by Vihaan on Zamil's demand.

"Excuse me... I'm also a girl and I don't have any problem in my eyes" Richa huffed and Vihaan smiled.

"I do agree with my Richa... She doesn't have any problem in her eyes" placing his arm around her neck Vihaan said dramatically on which Racha smiled but her beautiful smile was short lived because "She has problem in her brain" Vihaan added and Richa's eyes become wide.

"Vihu I won't talk to you ever" Richa huffed but the scene was funny and cute too which bring smile on my lips.

I had to admit that Richa and Vihaan both were cute together.

"Hasiiiiiiii"
(she smiled)

Vihaan shouted so loudly and I smiled more on the way of his talk

"Mission completed!" Vihaan hooted while giving high five to Zamil. Four of us were laughing and smiling on the silly jokes of Vihaan and Richa. And I almost forgot about my worries and started enjoying with my friends.

Zamil passed me chocolate pastry, which were my favourite, and I accepted that with whole hearted smile.

"Ready to take admission in college?" Zamil asked and I nodded with a big grin on her face. There were only five days in taking admission and I had to prepare my documents which were needed to be submit. I was busy in laughing and having pastry when I noticed Zamil watching me, like he was trying to find out the answer of some unasked questions of his heart. My heart skipped a beat when his corners of mouth stretched in a charming smile. "Always Keep smiling in the same way, you look beautiful while smiling" using the tips of his first finger he wiped the icing from the corner of my mouth, while saying that in whisper and my smile flew away making my heart skipped two beats right away.

"Ahem.. Ahem.." Richa fake clear her throat

"Ooohhhooo.... And how do I look while smiling?" Vihaan hooted and asked the question just to tease Zamil.

"You looks like a monkey and sounds like donkey" Zamil slapped his head lightly and replied making me and Richa laugh out loud.

"Am I right Shama?" Zamil asked and run is fingers in his hair to made them fluffy.

Damn! His smile is so charming!

Shamaaaaa!!! You're entering in the 'No entry' Zone

I realised and took pledge that I'll stay in only friend zone with Zamil.
