Halim's POV

"But it was my birthday" He says.

"And you were busy. I tried calling you so many times but you didn't pick up. And then I got to know that you were busy with Mashal" I say.

"Yeah. She arranged lunch for me and family. Our engagement date is 6th February and we're getting married on 3rd March" He tells.

"Wow that's amazing. You know what? Me and Saim are getting engaged on 4th March" I say.

"Uhh do something about it. How can I miss your special day?" He says.

"I'll talk to him today when he comes to pick me" I say.

"Going somewhere?" He asks.

"Yep. I'm getting late. I have to get ready. Gotta go. Bye!" I say looking at the clock.

My special day..Huh!

I don't know why, but from yesterday I've been feeling this for Ghazian. Like, I don't wanna see his face, I don't wanna talk to him or err.. I just..I can't. I don't wanna talk about him either.

No, he's not on my mind. I'm getting the love I deserved from Saim. He's a nice guy. And Ghazian? Well, he is also nice. But..I'm unable to explain it...and no, I don't feel anything for him. At all!

Opening my cupboard I pick out this:

(I'm sorry but I just can't explain dresses so here's the picture🙄)

I love this dress of mine.

Beachy waves, mascara, half eyeliner, and a pink lipgloss. A perfect match!

Wait...jewellery...it's the worst part. I must text him asking if he likes jewellery or not. Umm..would that be fine? Nopes...but what if he thinks of me as someone who has no idea about jewellery? And what if I wear some bracelet and rings and he doesn't like it?

Ugh. Confusing! I must text him.

Halim: Do you like jewellery?

One tick.
2 ticks and not blue yet.
Blue! Shit! It's blue!

Saim: Are you planning to bring jewellery for me?😵
Halim: Uhh. No..
Saim: Then?
Halim: Ugh. Why don't you understand this on your own?
Saim: Jewellery and what? Halim...What's the matter?
Halim: Do you like jewellery or not? It's that simple.
Saim: I like jewellery. But I wouldn't wanna wear it...
Halim: THAT'S NOT THE ANSWER!😩
Saim: What do you want?
Halim: I'm just asking if you like it or not?
Saim: Why are you asking this from me?!
Halim: Because I have to wear it.
Saim: Look, if you like jewellery wear it if you don't wear it I wouldn't mind...😂
Halim: Hey! Stop laughing. It's a serious matter!
Saim: Quite serious!😂😂😂
Halim: Can you please stop laughing and tell me what to do?
Saim: Wear some rings and a bracelet.😋
Halim: But I don't like jewellery..
Saim: ...
Halim: What?
Saim: You're a girl...and you're impossible..😂
Halim: WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING?!😭
Saim: It's ok if you don't want to.😂
Halim: But you said that you like it.
Saim: Halim..don't wear jewellery. I don't like it.😶
Halim: But it would look so simple then...
Saim: HALIM LET IT BE PLEASE!😂
Halim: Why are you laughing?😭
Saim: I'm coming to pick you.
Halim: No. I need half an hour to get ready.
Saim: My goodness! Then go and get ready because you wouldn't want to miss sunset today.
Halim: oh yes. See you bye!
Saim: Bye!😍💖😂😂😂

"I'm sure I'm not late" I say sitting inside the car.

He gives me his most sarcastic look.

"What?" I say.

"You are late Miss!" He says.

"It's all because of you!" I say.

"Wait what?" He says.

"Yeah. If you don't turn the engine on, we will not reach there" I say and smile the most annoying smile. He turns his face away revving the engine.

It's been almost 2 months and I guess I'm addicted to his presence. I've become habitual of sitting next to him in his car, while he speeds it up. I can't spend my day without talking to him. And now I know, I've started to like him. He's such a nice guy.

"I love you too" I hear him say.

WHAT'S UP WITH THIS BOY?!

I look at him in confusion.

"It was what you were thinking about" He says.

"How do you know that?" I say.

"Glad to hear this Halim" He says.

"That was not the answer" I say.

"But you wanted to hear my response" He says.

"You have some secret powers. I'm sure now" I say.

"I know you love it when I answer the questions that keep messing your mind" He says.

"Of course I do" I blurt out.

Uhh..my cheeks are going red. I can feel the heat...He's looking at me...Shit! I look away and outside the window.

"Why are you so shy? But anyhow, I love this side of you" He says.

He actually expresses a lot! But I guess it's the only thing which helped me in moving on. He did this so easily. The thing I thought was impossible, actually required just a little energy and determination.

"Want me to join or would you like to go alone by yourself?" He asks as we both walk some steps away from the car.

"I would love to see this sunset with you Saim" I say being honest as possible. Because I actually want this right now.

"I feel honoured" He says. What a gentleman he is!

"So..what is it?" He asks.

"Date clash. Can we postpone our engagement date to 5th March please?" I ask.

"Why but?" He asks. 

"Because of his wedding" I tell him.

"Yeah sure, I'll talk to mum. And she would surely do something about it" He says.

We then walk in peace.

The bright orange colour gets deeper by each passing second. And eventually, the bright yellow colour disappears. To my amaze, the deep brown colour starts surrounding the bright orange colour and the sun sinks somewhere in the cloud.

There's no sign of sun anywhere now. All I see is the dark orange colour dying in the deep brown colour. It's just worth watching.

Exactly opposite to where the sun sank, I can see the clear dark and deep blue colour covering the whole sky. Just like someone spills the ink on a paper and it keeps spreading.

The little stars start twinkling in the sky as if someone just sprinkled glitter.

Looking back at where the sun sank, I see the lines of light brown colour. They keep forming in different ways. It looks like someone is painting the whole scene with heart. Sometimes nature amazes us so easily.

Without any interruption we both watch the whole scene. Without exchanging any words, we both feel exactly the same. Ain't this beautiful when you don't say a word and the other person feels each little thing you are thinking about.

I have to admit this that I think about him a lot now. And yesterday when I thought that I still love him I was wrong. Because I never got someone to understand the real me. And believe me, whenever I watch sunset, I can not hide the person I keep burying inside me. And this is what happened. He explained the real and true words of depression, and this helped a lot.

I don't think I love Ghazian anymore. All I want is Saim. He's such a nice guy. He makes me feel someone special. And I'm sure Ghazian never made Mashal feel so.

At the same time I'm afraid. Is Saim true about his feelings or not? Because I'm quite sensitive person. And I wouldn't want anyone to mess up with my emotions. I never led anyone come this close to me. Even my best friend, Ghazian, never got to see this side of me.

It's amazing how I don't have to be perfect around him. Because he likes almost everything about me. And him? I like him...and soon he'll make me love himself.

"It was so peaceful" He says.

"Yes...I got to listen to my inner voice after so long..." I tell him.

"And what conversation did you have?" He asks.

"As if you don't know" I say.

"Whatever you've been thinking about since so long, is true. I'll never play with your feelings. And I'll never let you love me unless and until you choose it on your own" He says.

"Why?" I ask in confusion.

"You'll get to know that soon. But at this time, don't try to mess your likes with your love Halim" He says.

"But..ok. I've not messed that up. But just give me on honest answer" I say.

"Ask whatever it is" He says.

"Why are you..or not I'm not sure. But why are you acting this way. Like..why are you making me fall for you when you have no plan to catch me?" I ask.

"It's not that I'm telling you not to love me. It's just that I don't want you to feel that I am making you fall for me" He says.

I look at him in complete confusion so that he explains his statement clearly.

"I want you to fall for me all on your own. It's not a force from me" He says.

"Ohh I got it. But I guess you can never make anyone fall for you forcefully" I say.

His brown eyes are not clear anymore due to darkness. I can only feel his presence now.

"You're right. And I guess you're falling for me" He says this so easily.

And me? I can feel my cheeks going red.

"I can not see your face. But I'm sure what you're going through" He says.

"I love this part of you. I can never hide anything from you" I say.

"Glad to hear that" He says.

"Can we go back?" I say.

"I'm sure it's not darkness which you're running from" He says.

"Of course not. Mum's waiting for me. It's quite late now" I say.

"I loved this conversation we had. Because" I interrupt him.

"We were honest about our feelings and got to know each other a little more. And I loved it too by the way" I say completing his sentence. He chuckles.

"Effects of being in my company" He says.

"Call them good one" I say as we walk towards the car.
