Chapter 9
Anabia's POV
The next day in school was exhausting. Our Maths Teacher gave us a wonderful surprise. Test...A freaking surprise test...
I love Maths though I was average in Maths.
"How was the test?" Natalie and Kate asked me and I gave them a frown look.
"I wish, I could pass" I scrunched my face.
"I'm gonna fail " Jessie pouted.
"I guess, I'll top," Natalie said dusting her shoulder.
"You mean you gonna compete Daniel " Kate rolled her eyes.
"We all know that he is damn good in Maths " Kate scrunched her nose.
"Leave it girls, and Jessie what about Kyle. You guys went somewhere?" Natalie winked at Jessie.
"Shut up Natalie, we were working on a project" Jessie slapped her hand and they giggled.
"Didn't he ask anything to you?" Kate asked with a mischievous smile.
"God, he doesn't like me. How could he like me..? I'm so simple, he'll go through a girl like Emily " her voice showed a slight disappointment.
"I knew you like him, and Jessie doesn't compare with other girls. You are outstanding, you are beautiful" Kate said and pulled her into a hug.
"One day he'll realize your worth " Natalie pecked his cheeks.
"C'mon girls, you are making me emotional" she wiped her fake tears and turned to me.
"Ana, what about that guy Shuzaat"
"He is nice" I replied shyly.
"Someone is blushing " Natalie squealed and I shot a fake glare at her.

After bidding goodbye to Shuzaat, I came into my room. I did my ablution and offered Maghrib Salaah.
I decided to take a hot shower as my whole body was aching. I washed my hair and now I was struggling with them. I had very long hairs and I didn't know to fix them as in India Bua used to fix my hairs.
I came to the terrace to put the towel in the air. As I stepped there, my heart missed a beat. Daniyal was standing shirtless there. My eyes and body froze there. He turned and looked at me.
We were staring at each other eyes until I realized that he is shirtless. I swallowed my lumps as my eyes traveled to his abs.
I quickly stormed into my room. My heart was racing so fast. I could hear the beats of my heart. My whole body was burning. Then I realized, I hadn't put on my hijab.
He saw my hair.
But he was my husband. There was nothing wrong with this. But still, my heart was beating fast. I never knew that our terrace was the same.
Daniel's POV
After taking a nice shower, I came to the terrace. I love the view from my terrace. I felt a different peace there.
Then I heard footsteps, I turned my head and shocked. She was standing there with her wide eyes and she was not wearing the hijab. Maybe she just took a shower as I could see the water dripping from her hairs.
Damn her hairs were really long long and long and they were beautiful.
Believe me, I had never seen such beautiful hairs. She was staring at me standing there hypnotized. I felt a different type of heat in my heart.
Why I was feeling in that way...
Her eyes traveled to my body and then she realized that I was not wearing my shirt. Her face flustered and I could see a tint of blush on her face. She pulled her eyes and ran to her room. I sighed and ran my fingers to my hairs frustratingly.

I was sitting in the cafeteria with Emily, Joe(Jace's girlfriend), and my friends when I saw Ana and her friend with that guy. As her eyes met mine, the memories of last night flashed in my mind. A small smirk appeared on my face as I saw her flustered face.
"I think, I like her" Alex said staring at Ana.
"Who?" Joe wiggled her eyebrows.
"That beautiful nerd. She is fucking pretty. I just want to taste her innocent virgin lips" Alex almost moaned.
The blood rushed to my face from anger. He was passing disgusting comments to what is mine.
Mine?? Seriously...??
"Shut the fuck up, Alex. She is not your type. Stop playing with girls " I groaned.
"Hey, are you on your periods... why are you so annoyed " Alex rolled his eyes, and the rest of them laughed.
I gritted my teeth, I just wanted to punch his pretty nose but I tried to calm myself.
"Actually she is his cousin " Emily placed her hands on mine and answered them.
"Ohh.. sorry bro," Alex said quickly.
"But when did she born " he joked again.
God! I hate his lame jokes.
"She recently moved to London and we live in the same house. And listen Alex think twice before saying anything about her " I didn't know why I was being that possessive and protective about her.
Heck, I wanted to make her life hell but here what I was doing.
Caring for her and protecting her...
Really???
"Chill bro.. I've nothing to do with her. I just found her attractive and innocent." Alex shrugged his shoulders and I gave him a small smile.
Anabia's POV
Shuzaat promised us a treat. Did I tell you that now Shuzaat was also a part of our group? He was really nice. I noticed Kate had a crush on him as she didn't like it when Jessie and Natalie used his name to tease me but she didn't tell us yet.
Daniyal was already there with his girlfriend and friend. Jessie blushed a little when she saw Kyle.
We took a seat, Shuzaat was sitting next to me and Kate. I could see the flustered face of Kate when Shuzaat asked her for the order.
Stupid Girls.
"Ana" Shuzaat called me.
"Hmm"
"Would you mind if I ask you something " he smiled.
I could see the intense gaze of girls on me and the blurry eyes of Kate.
"Yeaah" I awkwardly smiled.
"I love your pakoras, when would you invited me again to your home," he said with a toothy grin and I smiled.
"What is this "pakora"?" Kate furrowed her eyebrows.
"Ana's special dish" Shuzaat winked and I narrowed my eyes.
"C'mon it was a simple snack"
"Sounds yummy " our foodie Natalie licked her lips and we laughed.
"Eww, someone please tell them to get a room" Jessie scrunched her nose as she looked at the next table.
I peeked through the corner of my eyes. It was ... Daniyal and Emily. My heart skipped a beat.
