Sister-in-law showed me around the house .Their house was really beautiful; exterior and interior design, furnitures, decorations everything was complimenting to each other.

"You have a very beautiful home."I praised as we walked up the staircase.

"Thank you."Bhabi smiled,stepping up by my side.

Reaching to the second floor,She started mentioning the rooms of her family members as she led me pass the doors.

"That's Aabir's room."She said when we were crossing the third room.

For a moment,my mind poked me to push the door open and look inside but I resisted myself.

"And this one is mine."She said, pushing the door open of the next room.

We walked in.

The room was of considerable size,well organized,neat and clean.

But there was someone in the room whom I couldn't recognize.On bed,a girl was lying on her stomach and using her phone.

As soon as she saw us entering into the room , she quickly got out of the bed and stood in a formal posture.

I hadn't seen her before.But seeing her,I could guess that She might be at the age of 15 or 16 ,the same age as my younger sister,Sara.She stood at 5'1'' ,had a slim figure ,fair complex and beautiful face .

It seemed I wasn't familiar to her either as she was staring at me with questioning eyes.

"She is Mehek,Aabir's younger sister."Bhabi introduced her to me.

Aabir's sister!Till now I was thinking he is a single child of his parents :)

I smiled at her .She smiled back but her questioning gaze didn't left yet.

"She is Zara,your brother-in-law's sister .She is Aabir's college friend as well."Bhabi told her.

"Oh,I see!"She mumbled ,seemed at ease now.

"Assalamu Alaikum!"She greeted me, this time with a comfortable smile .

"Walaikum Assalam!"I replied, smiling back.

"Let's sit and talk the rest."Sister-in-law said and walked towards the couch.Mehek and I followed her.

We settled ourselves on couch and talked then.I got to know that due to studies ,Mehek live in Mumbai with her rest of the family instead of living here with her parents and brother.And last time when I'd come here,I didn't see her because she was in Mumbai back then as her exam was going on.She'd come here just two days ago.

By talking to her ,I also figured out that She was a sweet girl and has a good sense of humor.

After a while Mehek left,leaving sister-in-law and me alone in the room and we two kept talking about this and that.In between ,She asked me about the likes and dislikes of my family so that after marriage it could help her to could get along quickly with us.I told her as much I could ,hoping that those informations would come to her help in future.

"Bhabi,I'm very curious ."I started a new topic to talk.

"What are you curious about?"she asked.

"About your love story.I want to know it."I grinned.

"It's a simple love story.There's nothing much to say."She said.

"I still want to hear.I want to know how Farhan bhai and you first met ,how you two fell in love and all that."I insisted.

Sister-in-law seemed thoughtful for a moment.And I was looking at her intently,hoping to get a positive answer.

After a moment of thought,she smiled at me which I took as a green signal and beamed with excitement.

"Well....."She started "We two first met one year ago in Mumbai because of an accident."

"An accident?"I frowned.

"Actually one day while parking his car in a restaurant's parking lot, he'd accidently bumped his car into mine that caused a little ding and scratches on my car.As I wasn't present there ,He had left a sorry note on my car's windshield along with his number saying that he would pay for the damage."

"Did you call him then?"I asked.

"Yeah,I did. When I got the note, I'd called him but to tell that he didn't need to pay for the damage as it was just a small scratch .But he kept on insisting to pay for the damages.So, I told him to buy me a cup of coffee as a compensation and he agreed for it.

The next day we met in a coffee shop and on our first meeting we became good friends.Henchforth,we started meeting everyday at the same coffee shop and got to know eachother more and more.

Then after two weeks, his work got finished and he returned to Dehradun.But we stayed in touch with eachother .We used to talk almost everyday on phone ,sometimes for hours and sometimes all night long."She said.

"When did you realise that you love him?"

"It was after two months.He'd come to Mumbai for his new case and we happened to met again.The happiness I felt seeing him in front me made me realize that I had fallen for him."She smiled shyly .

"It must be the same for brother?"I asked where she nodded .

"Actually it was love at first sight for him.He had fallen for me at our first meeting.Infact his reason of coming Mumbai again wasn't any case ,it was me.He'd come to see me .But at that time he hide the actual reason and gave an excuse that he got another case that brought him there .He told me about all this after our relationship."She blushed .

I chuckled seeing her crimson face.

"So when and how did he confess his feelings to you?"I asked,more curious than before.

"He didn't confess his feelings first.Your brother was too coward to do that.It was I who did first."She said.

"Really ?"I was surprised.

"Yes .I'd already realized that Farhan also has feelings for me and I was waiting for him to confess first.He even tried few times to tell me about his feelings but everytime failed due to his nervousness and fear of losing me."She paused to let out a sigh.

I lowered my head and sighed ,getting disappointment at my brother.

How could he be so coward?

Sister-in-law continued"I'd understood that it wasn't his cup of tea.So,being desperate ,I confessed my feelings to him on our fifth meeting at the same coffee shop."

"Woah!"I was amazed."You were so brave."

"I had to.If I waited for your brother, then we wouldn't able to be together in this life time. "She said where I laughed.

She went on "After my confession ,He even confessed his and since that day we became boyfriend and girlfriend officially.We started dating eachother through phone and video calls and used to meet once in a month .And after dating 5 months like that, now we're getting married finally."

She finished her love story, adoring a wide elegant smile on her face.

"Wow!Such a sweet love story!"I whispered with admiration.

She blushed again, looking away from my eyes .

"By the way,Speaking of which,you were in Mumbai and he was in Dehradun,So it was a long distance relationship,right?"I asked then, where she nodded in a Yes.

"I've heard that long distance relationship is hard to manage.Is it true?"I asked out of curiosity.

"Well...Long distance relationship is hard but they're also incredible.From our experience ,I will say that this distance has given us a reason to love harder.It taught us to appreciate the days we're able to spend together , even taught us the definition of patience.It made us realise that every moment together is special and those moments should be cherished."She answered.

"I never think it that way.You've really changed my prospective about long distance relationship."I said and I literally mean it.

She smiled in response.

I was filled with a sense of awe, hearing their love story , but Sister-in-law didn't let it last long .

"Well...We've talked enough about mine.Now let me hear yours.Don't you have a love story?"She asked, smiling mischievously at me.

As usual I became uncomfortable by this topic.

"Don't you have someone special in your life?"she asked again,her eyes held curiousity.

"No,I don't."I said honestly.

"If you have,You can tell me .I won't tell to your brother,I promise.It'll be our secret ."she insisted.

"But I'm telling the truth.Since childhood,I've only dreamt of becoming a doctor.And that's why, I've always kept study on my first priority.To pursue my dream,I was so much busy with my studies that I had no time for love, relationship and all that."I explained and I got the impression that She believed me this time .

Our conversation got interrupted then as I got a call from Khusbu.Seeing her call,I realised that I forgot to inform them about my coming here.

I excused myself from sister-in-law and went to the balcony to receive the call.

"Hello!"I answered the call.

"Hey,Where are you?Do you know what the time is?What's taking you so long there,huh ?When are you gonna come back ?"Khusbu said from the other side,sounded agitated.

"Well..I'm at Sister-in-law Saba's house right now.And I don't think I will be free from here anytime soon."I said .

"What are you doing over there?"she asked , sounded surprised.

"Actually, In front of the mall,I'd bumped into her and she brought me to her house from there."I said ,then lowered my voice as I spoke further"I didn't even want to come but she insisted me so much that I couldn't refuse her.And now ,they're not letting me go without having lunch with them."

"Oh!"that's all she muttered.It was a relief that she didn't react much.

If it were Misha ,then I would've definitely got a different reaction.

"So,when will you return home ?"She asked then.

"As soon as I can."I replied.

"Alright then,Come back soon."She said.

"Okay,Bye!"I said and cut the call.

I let out a sigh in relief and was about to go back into the room but my roaming gaze fell upon the bike that was in front of the garage and I paused on my way .That man was still working on it's maintenance.

"Bhabi!"I turned towards her.She was scrolling something in her phone that time.

"Yes?"She looked up at me from her mobile screen.

"When I was entering into your house I'd seen a bike in front of the garage.I just wonder whose bike was that?"I asked as I couldn't suppress my curiosity anymore.

"That's Aabir's bike."She answered .

"He rides bike?"I was a little bit surprised as I'd never seen him riding a bike .I'd always seen him coming college in his car .

"He used to.Now,It's been two years since he has touched it."She answered, letting out a sigh.I couldn't comprehend the sadness in her voice.

"Oh,I see!"my eyes wandered to that bike again.

There was something about that bike which was making me anxious for no reason.

I was staring at the bike.Then, all of sudden a sharp pain strike at the back of my head and my visions got blurry.Reflexively ,I closed my eyes shut and some blurry images of a person and an unclear voice clouded my mind .

".... ....Hold me or else you will fall."

"You're the sixth woman who get the opportunity to ride in my bike."

"Give me back my bike key ...Catch me if you want it."

"I love my bike but not more than you ,stupid.........."

I opened my eyes with a jerk.

"What was that? What's with these sounds and images?"I questioned myself ,confused by what happened just now.

The more I put pressure on my mind to understand the meaning of those stuffs,the more my headache got worsened.

"Aah!I hate getting glimpse of something which I can't understand."I mumbled frustratedly, pressing my forehead with finger tips.

"Zara!"Sister-in-law called me that jolted me out of the daze I was in.

I quickly composed myself and turned around.I happened to see a female servant walked out of the room,closing the door behind.

I also noticed the glass table that was in front of the couch was full of tasty snacks now which was empty a while ago.

"Why are you still standing in the balcony?Come inside."She said as she took the cattle and started pouring tea in a cup.

I took a deep breath and walked in .

She said something to me when I sat beside her.But I couldn't listen as my mind was still engaged with those images and voice.

As I didn't response to her ,she shook me and I got out of my thoughts.

When I re-focused on her,I noticed her tensed look.

"Hey,Are you okay?"she asked, looking at my face worriedly.

"Yeah,I am alright."I smiled a fake smile.

"It doesn't seem so looking at your face. You look pale."She said .

"I'm fine.I'm just having a headache."I said .

"What?Is it serious?Do you want some medicine or should I call the doctor?"She got tensed.

Seeing her getting so much worried ,I understood that she must've an idea about my medical condition.Farhan bhai might've told her about it.

"Bhabi,There's no need of medicine or doctor.You're getting worried unnecessarily."I said quickly to make her calm.

"I'm used to such headache and I will be perfectly fine soon.So, you don't worry ."I added.

"Are you sure?"She asked.

"Yes."I smiled a reassuring smile.

She wasn't looking much convince but she listened to me and let the matter go.And thankfully my headache also subsided after a while.

But my mind kept lingering on those weird stuffs.I was thinking as to why I was seeing such things which has nothing to do with me.

But little did I know, what those moments meant to me once upon a time.
