*Zayan's Birthday*

___________________________________________________________________

-Misha-

A week later.

Mom and Uncle are coming tomorrow and we will go to pick them up. After two weeks we saw them. They call us regularly to check is everything okay but Rayyan told them not to call us and enjoy their vacations, if something wrong we will call them. After that they barely call us and thank us a million times. In these two weeks Rayyan and me are getting close and sometimes he gives me surprises. We spend a lot time together. If we were in office, we message each other and it makes me so happy that he changed.

Right now, I am getting ready for Zayan's birthday. He turned 19 today. I am happy for him. We bought a gift for him and I knew he like it because he was wanted it from a long time. I wore a light blue dress. It was simple but perfect. It was small function at my house. Zayan invite all of us, Ahmed Uncle family and some of his friends.

I went down in living room to see Rayyan doing something on his phone. He didn't look up at me instead stood up and walk at door. I feel sad when he didn't look at me for a second. We walked up to his car and left. Fatima already gone with her friend to function. He started the car and drove off. I rested my head on window, we didn't say anything but sitting in silence.

"Misha you okay?" I heard his voice. I looked at him but his eyes still on road. I was getting mad right now.

"I am fine!" I snapped but regret when I saw a hurt flash on his face. He nodded and continue to driving. After 15 minutes we were in front of my house.

I was about to get out when he grab my arm to stop me. I looked at him and my heart clenched when I saw pain in his eyes. He leaned closer and kissed my head.

"What happen to you?" He asked softly. I shake my head as nothing happen. I feel bad for doing that. I didn't mean to hurt him.

"I am tired" I lied. He looked at me for few minutes before saying something.

"Don't lie to me. Tell me what happen?" He demanded and locked the car as I tried to open it. "Tell me"

"I was mad at you because you didn't even notice me and told me how I look like all time" I told him looking at his eyes. He always tell me how I look but not today. Everytime I was eagerly waiting for his comment but today he didn't that's what make me mad. His eyes roamed my head to my toes but didn't say anything.

"I am sorry Rayyan. I was expecting too much." I said looking away and blink my eyes to get rid of water in my eyes.

"Misha you looking beautiful like all time but it is not important to tell everytime. If I do then it will make your beauty less and I don't want that. You always look good to me no matter what you are wearing or you have makeup or not. I like you simple and decent." He said softly and give me a light peck. I closed my eyes and sigh as a small blush appears on my cheeks. I open them again and saw him smiling brightly at me.

We went inside of house as maid open door for us. We walk in backyard where all voices are coming. Dad and some of his business friends sitting in corner talking. Zayan and all his friends on other corner playing some weird games and ladies were sitting at table. We walk up to Dad and greet him. He give us his blessing and told us to meet Zayan.

"Zayan Freeze" I shouted from behind and make him freeze. He stop on his place. I smirked and circled him few times before saying move. I always do this with him.

"Misha!" I was trapped into big hug from my kid brother. Who can say he is 19?

"Leave me" I struggled but instead of leaving, he only loosen his grip on me. I patted his back and mess with his styled hairs when he pulled back. He give me a glare making me laugh. He greet Rayyan and we wish him birthday before separating our ways.

We spot familiar figurers sitting far away from everyone. We looked at each other before walking there. A small table arranged in corner and few people of our age sitting there. They didn't notice us and kept on talking. Rayyan get their attention. They looked at us with wide eyes and smile at us. They stood and walk to hug us in turns. Aashir Bhai, Alina Bhabhi, Maryam, Shehry were there with some other people.

"So how your life is going?" Aashir Bhai asked with smirk on his face. Alina Bhabhi stood next to him. Starting of next year they are also getting married.

"Great" We both say at same time. Everyone laughed at us Rayyan smirked and I blush.

"You too are so cute." Alina Bhabhi awed at us.

"Cute? They look ugly" We heard an irritated voice behind us. We turned around and saw her again. I sigh mentally She will never leave us alone.

"Shut up Soha" Shehry said in annoyed voice. She smirked making all of us confused.

"Why Shehry? Because I said truth? You know truth is bitter" Rayyan hold my hand tightly as I clenched my hand into fist and ready to slap her.

"Well, you tell truth in your way. You think like that not any of us. If we look ugly but we are happy with each other. I suggest you to do your work" He said calmly trying to stop his anger. She stepped forward to us and grinned evily.

"I am doing my work. Just wait and be careful Misha" She turned around and walked away. I stood there confused. Doing work? Be careful? Why should I be careful? A light shake on my should make me turn around. Everyone look at me in worried and confused.

"What happen?" Rayyan asked slowly. I shake my head and brush it off what she says. I tried not to think about her but her words roaming in my mind.

'I am doing my work. Just wait and be careful Misha'

Be careful of what? What is going to happen? Is she planning to do something with me? She can't. She has nothing to do with me. She can't do anything. Yeah, she can't. What if she take him away? Did he leave me for her? No, he doesn't. He will never leave me. I will fight for him if he go away from me. My breath was getting heavy. I took a deep and long breath to calm myself.

"Misha. Are you okay?" Rayyan concerned voice rang in my ears. I looked at him and he was scared and worried about me.

"Y-yeah. I-I am fine" I stutter it out before looking away. It is time to cut the cake. Zayan step forward to cut it. He fed Dad, Me, and Rayyan first. Amy take the cake, cut it equally and serve everyone. There some time in dinner so Zayan decide to open his gifts.

"Gift opening time" he yelled running over to table of gifts. We all chuckle at his childish behavior. He can get whatever he wants but he says it was something else to open the gift other people bought it for you because he don't know what they are getting for him. He open first of Adeel. He give him latest games CDs. Then he open Fatima she give him an expensive set of cufflinks for button shirt. Now he has to wear something professional because what Dad decide he had for him.

"Misha where is your gift?" He asked looking at gifts searching for mine. I lead him to front and everyone follow us. Rayyan was on my side.

"Here" I open front door and there is a new BMW i8. Everyone gasped at it and we smiled. Zayan looked shocked. He looked at me then back at car.

"T-this is for me?" He asked still shocked.

"Yeah. Me and Rayyan bought it for you but if you don't want we take it back" I said making fake sad face. He quickly snapped his head to us.

"No! I want it. This is the best gift. Thank you Rayyan Bhai" he run to him and give him a brotherly hug then he hugged me.

"Can I have keys please?"He begged for it. I shake my head and point to man stand beside the car. His name is Steven. He is now his bodyguard.

"Steven. Keys please" he give him his keys. Zayan started to walk on driving seat but get stop by his bodyguard.

"Sorry sir but you have to ask Ma'am to drive it" He said looking at him. Zayan glared at me and I smiled sweetly at him. What he thinks I let him drive it alone? Without my permission?

"What is this Misha? You just gift me this and I can't even drive it?"

"Sorry my little brother but I know your driving skills. Steven is your bodyguard now and he is always with you. You can drive it but he will be with you. Don't try to do anything" I told him seriously. He gulped and nodded. I smiled at him and told him to drive. Both of them drove off to take a test run.

Everyone having fun and talking about things. Zayan came back and took some of his friends to drive. Adeel and Fatima are his close friends so they got first.

Rayyan thought this all make me forget what Soha says but that is not helping. Her words are coming in my head again and again. What work she is doing? Is she taking him away from me? What she mean by careful? This is not helping. I have to keep an eye on her. I have to ask me trackers to tracker her phone and my detective to watch her closely.

'I won't let her spoil our relationship. I won't let her to make differences between us. I won't let her to do anything in our lifes.' I promised myself.
