35. DATE?

I woke up and found myself in my bed. But I didn't remember coming in my room. I checked my mobile it's 9 am now.

WHAT??!

9 am!

How I slept this much? Everyday I wokes up at 7:45. I saw that the curtains of windows are closed. And the room is also dark. And my alarm....

Crap! I forgot to put an alarm. Oh God! What I'll do now? I only have little time to get ready for college. And when I slept?

-"Good morning Jaan!"

The door opened he walked inside and started opening the curtains.

-"You had closed them?"

-"Yes."

-"And when I slept? I remember we were watching Iron man."

-"You fell asleep while watching the movie then I carried you here."

-"It's 9 am and you're still at home?"

He came and sat beside me. He touched my forehead with the back of his hand.

-"You had little fever yesterday. So how could I've left you alone? Now go get ready I've already prepared breakfast. Okay?"

I nodded and went in bathroom. I got fresh up wore dark blue jeans, white turtleneck top and took out a long brown coat. I hold the coat in my hands and went downstairs.

I found Faisal sitting on dining table. I sat near him and we had breakfast. After breakfast Faisal gave me my medicine and I wore my coat.

-"Come Jaan let's go it's 9:40. We have only 50 minutes."

His phone rang.

-"Faisal you go I'm just coming. I forgot my bag in room."

-"Okay. I'll wait near car. Come fast."

He went in elevator and I got my bag from my room. I saw a black file on couch. I opened it, it's related to security of a government organisation. I remember he told me yesterday that he has meeting with FBI head for some security room. I hold it and went down.

He was standing near car talking on phone wearing black glasses. Some guards are standing around the entrance of building and there is a black car behind ours. Zack is also standing near our car. As I reached there I wished them

-"Good morning everyone!"

-"Good morning ma'am."

They all wished me back. Faisal glanced at me and end the call. I showed him the file.

-"F*ck! I totally forgot about it."

-"Language!" I glared at him and he hold his ear with one hand mouthing sorry.

Then we sat in car and Zack started driving. Faisal got busy in his big dabba and I was looking out of the window. I opened the window but he hissed

-"Jaan!"

I looked at him and found him removing my hairs from his face.

-"Sorry. They flew because of wind."

-"There in AC in car then why are you opening it?"

-"Sorry."

I tied my hairs with a hair tie. Stupid Zoya! What was the need to open the window? I closed the window and sat silently.

After twenty minutes the car stopped and we reached my college. Zack got out of car and he opened the door for me I got out of car Faisal also came behind me.

-"Jaan!"

-"Hmm."

-"Be ready at 8:00 pm."

-"But why?"

-"We're going out."

-"For icecream!" I asked excitedly.

-"Not only icecream." He walked near me and removed hair tie from my hairs.

-"Then?" I asked him and he stroked my hairs with his hands like combing them.

-"We're going on a date."

My eyes grew bigger and my mouth hung open. DATE? Did I heard it right?

"Yes. You heard it right. We're going on a date my wifey." He pinched my nose.

-"Ouch!"

-"Now go fast otherwise you'll get late for college."

I started walking but he hold my hand. I turned to him and he hold my face in his hands and kissed my forehead.

"Take care." I smiled.

-"All the best for your meeting. Check all the documents and presentation 10 minutes before the meeting and don't be late. And you can drink coffee as much you want but only today and not too much. And don't be nervous. And keep your temper in control. You're The Faisal Khan. You can do it. Okay."

-"Okay okay. I understand. I'll follow your instructions my dear wifey." He said smiling.

-"Good luck husband. Bye."

I went in college.

Now I'm in a lecture and my phone buzzed. I looked in it and saw Faisal's call. But why he's calling me now? He never calls during college hours.

-"Zoya! Where are you looking?"

-"Nothing professor."

He saw me as I'm sitting in first row. I cut the call. My mobile again buzzed. It's his call again.

-"Zoya! What is this? Stand up!"

-"Sir...."

-"Is it important?" I nodded. "Okay. Then go out and talk but not more than 5 minutes."

-"Thank you sir."

I went out of class and sat on bench. I answered the call

-"Hello......"

-"Jaan! Why were you not picking up my call?"

-"I'm in college you idiot. You disturbed me now professor has sent me out of class because of you."

-"I'm sorry Jaan but........ What the hell is this Bella?! I told you to check the presentation again!"

-"Sir I've already checked it 5 times and you've also checked it yourself. And all documents are ready." I heard her scared voice from other side. Oh God! This man!

-"Faisal! Why are you shouting on her?"

-"Because she......"

-"Apologise."

-"What?"

-"Apologise to her now."

-"Sorry Ms. Spots." I heard crash sound from other side. Dead silence. "What are you looking? Go."

-"What happened?"

-"Files fell from her hand because this is the first time I'm apologising to someone other than you. She was so shocked."

I started laughing hearing it.

"Jaan! Here I'm hell nervous and you're laughing."

-"Sorry. Okay tell why you called me?"

-"You're asking me? Jaan. I'm very nervous please do something. This is the first time I'm meeting someone from FBI and that too the head of FBI. I've heard that they're very rude and dangerous. It's first time I'm nervous."

-"Ya Dumbo. Don't freak out. Everything will be fine. You've prepared very well nothing can go wrong. I believe you. Just think that he's some other businessman."

-"Really? But what if he didn't liked the plan? "

-"Faisal. Why are you thinking this all? Be positive. You had personally prepared that project design. And do you know why he has chosen only you for this confidential project?

Because you are the only one who is capable. Everyone knows how intelligent and hardworking you are. They had chosen you because they knows that you're the best.

Just believe in yourself everything is possible. Now don't worry and stop shouting on your employees Mr. Arrogant. Be positive. Now I'm going back to class okay? You can do it my dear hubby. Good luck. Bye bye."

I ended the call and went in class.

TIME SKIP TO 6PM

-"So..... My friend is going on her first date today. Yay! I'm so happy!" Eva jumped in excitement.

-"Eva! Stop jumping everyone is looking at us silly girl."

She sat on chair silently. We're in canteen actually. Then Adam speak

-"Zoya. Are you sure? I mean... Don't you think you're trusting him very much?"

-"Adam. What are you saying? It's her choice and Mr. Khan is very nice."

-"But that man is the one who talked low of you Zoya. Don't forget what he has done to you. That son of a b*tch......."

-"ADAM! Enough! Don't you dare speak a word against him or his mother. Just because you're my friend then it doesn't mean that you'll speak anything. Faisal is my husband. And if anyone will speak anything bad about him I'll never tolerate it even that person is my best friend."

I got up and walked outside. I sat on a bench near a tree. My phone rang and I picked up the call.

-"Jaan. I'm waiting on college gate come fast."

-"I'm coming."

I ended the call and got up.

-"Princess...." Adam came near me.

-"We'll talk later. Now I'm going Faisal is waiting outside."

-"We'll also leave now."

Eva and Adam came beside me till gate. As I reached outside the gate. Faisal immediately came running and lifted me in his arms holding my waist with his hands. I tightly hold his shoulders for support he started spinning me.

-"Faisal! What are you doing?"

-"I'm so happy Jaan! I'm so happy!"

He said laughing and continued rotating me

-"Faisal put me down. Please."

He put me down but didn't left my waist and my hands are on his chest. He is smiling very happily

-"I'm so happy. I got the project. That officer loved my plan."

-"Congratulations!" I said jumping with happiness.

-"It's all because of you Jaan.  Because you motivated me."

-"No. It's all because of your hardwork my husband. And about motivation, it was my responsibility to guide you. And you know my motivation classes are available free of cost."

He smiled and pecked my lips. I got shocked with his sudden action. I looked at him shocked.

-"What is this?"

-"What?"

-"You kissed me in front of all guards."

-"No. I didn't. It was just a peck my kiss is left. Now come other students are coming they'll see us."

Then we sat in car and Zack started driving.

-"Jaan."

-"Hmm."

-"What are you going to wear today?"

-"What?" Why he's asking this?

-"Nothing."

He took out his dabba from coat pocket and got busy in it. This dabba!

Car stopped and we reached home.

-"Jaan. You go I'm just coming."

I went in elevator and directly went in my room when I reached penthouse. I put my bag on table and removed my coat and shoes. I'm feeling thirsty so I went downstairs. I was drinking water on dining table when he entered.

He straight walked to me

-"Only one and half hour."

-"For what?"

-"Seriously Jaan? Go. Get ready for our date."

-"Going sir."

I went in my room and wore a black off shoulder top and white lacy skirt which ends below my knees and a pair of black pencil heel boots. I stand infront of mirror and I looked at my shoulder carefully. That marks are no longer here but there are marks deep inside me that can never go. That was the most horrible incident of my life till now.

Okay. Now forget that and concentrate on present, on your husband and your date.

I curled my hairs a little to give them wavy look and some hair strands are falling on my right shoulder. I also applied little make up today. I've applied mascara, winged eyeliner, pink eyeshadow and glossy lips.

I looked myself in mirror. I'm looking nice. I think this dress is nice for today. I don't know anything about what to wear and all so I've wore whatever looked nice to me. I heard a knock on door I know who's it

-"Come in!"

He entered the room. And I looked at him nervously. I don't know if he'll like my work or not. He is looking very very handsome. He is wearing a white tshirt with black leather jacket and black jeans. He is wearing the watch gifted by Savio and his hairs are perfectly styled but they are falling little on his forehead.

He walked near me and his scent hit my nostrils. He's smelling very intoxicating. He looked at me from head to toe and his eyes became narrow looking at me and a crease formed on his forehead. My nervousness increased, I clutched my skirt in fists and looked down.

I knew that this look is not good for a date and I'm not looking pretty. Why had I done makeup? Stupid Zoya

-"You're ready?" I nodded. "Why are you looking down? Look at me."

I looked at him and found him smiling.

-"Faisal...."

-"You're looking very beautiful my wifey."

-"Really?"

-"Yes. But one thing is missing."

-"What?"

-"Close your eyes."

-"But why?"

-"I said close your eyes. Now!"

I immediately closed my eyes. I feel him walking behind me. He touched my neck and swept my hairs to one side. His hands got in contact with my bare skin I shivered at his touch. Something cold came on my neck and I fell his hot breath on my right arm he trailed his lips from my shoulder to ear. I tightly clutched my skirt. His hands hold my waist pulling me towards him. He hold me very close to himself. My heart started jumping like everytime. He kissed behind my ear and speak in deep voice.

-"Open your eyes."

I slowly opened my eyes and my eyes went to our reflection in mirror. I found a beautiful necklace on my neck. It's a diamond necklace which is in shape of a chain and there are many diamonds in it. It's simple but very beautiful.

-"You like it?"

-"It would be very expensive........"

-"Jaan." He put his head on my left shoulder. "It's my first gift for you after our marriage and what I told you that we should not see the price of a gift. And nothing is expensive for me. I'm a billionaire, you know?"

I smiled looking at his reflection in mirror.

-"I know Mr. Khan."

-"So you like it right?"

I nodded while smiling looking at him

"I knew that you'll surely like it."

-"You know me very well."

-"Indeed. Afterall you are my only wife." He kissed my cheek. "Okay let's go now."

-"Okay."

He left my waist and walked holding my hand but I stopped in middle remembering something.

-"Crap! I forget something."

I left his hand and started searching in drawer of side table of bed. I walked to other side of bed and searched there. But I didn't found anything.

-"Jaan. What are you searching?"

-"Ring. Faisal I..... I had put my ring..... ring here yesterday. It's...... it's not here....." I speak stammering in panic.

-"Jaan. Don't freak out. I'll got you another ring."

-"NO. Faisal that was 'our' ring, that was bought by your Mom."

-"It would be here only. Where you keeps it?"

-"I never removes it, I always wears our ring. Yesterday my finger got hurt so I removed that. But where's it now?"

I moved to dressing table and searched there, I found nothing. I sat on bed looking down. He came and stand infront of me.

-"Jaan....." I looked at him "We'll find it. Don't be sad that was just a ring...."

-"NO. Faisal that ring was not just a ring. That was the symbol of our relationship, our marriage, it had your mother's blessings. And I lost that. Why I'm so careless? It's......"

-"Jaan!" He walked to study table and picked ring box from there. I stand up and immediately went to him. I smiled looking at the box.

-"Faisal. You found it. Thank you."

-"Oh my Angel!"

He kissed my forehead holding my face in his hands.

"Why are you so pure?"

-"Huh?"

-"Nothing. Give me your hand."

He hold my left hand and slides the ring in my ring finger. Then he kissed my hand.

-"We're getting late." I told him.

-"So what?"

-"So what?! So it means date cancel?"

-"No way! We're leaving right now."

He hold my hand and we walked out of my room. We reached down. He opened the door of passenger seat of car.

-"You're going to drive?"

-"Of course. I don't want someone else to disturb us on our special day."

-"Special day?" I sat in car he closed the door, he ran to other side and sat on driver seat.

-"It's our first date so isn't it special?"

-"I don't know. It depends."

-"You'll know soon."

He started driving the car and a car is behind us. I know who would be in that car, bodyguards of course.

-"Where are we going?"

-"Somewhere."

I giggled remembering something.

"Why are you laughing?"

-"I just remembered something."

-"Something? Or some memories?" He said smiling looking straight at the road.

-"Yeah. Some very precious memories that will always make me smile."

-"Not only you. That will always make us smile. And today we'll gonna make more beautiful memories together."

-"Really?" I asked looking at him. He glanced at me and nodded. I smiled in excitement. What he has planned for today? I'm very excited as well as nervous because whenever he is near me I does something that embarrass me. I blabbers my heart out in nervousness and his touch...... It makes me lose my consciousness.

Oh God! What is happening to me? What is this feeling called? Why he's becoming my weakness as well as my power? He has become everything for me. How? What I feels for him? What should I name this feeling?

-"Jaan!"

-"Ha."

He hand me a chocolate. I take it smiling and started eating chocolate. I noticed him glancing at me time to time but when I looked towards him he immediately turns his face to road. I'm so confused with his behaviour.

He stopped the car after sometime. I looked out from glass of window and found a silent road. He opened the door of my side and I get down. He hold my hand and walked to the side of road.

-"Faisal. Where are we going? It's dark here." I said clutching his hand tightly as it's pitch dark here and I'm very afraid of dark.

-"Just trust me and don't be afraid. I'm with you sweetheart." He speak in his very sweetly and caring voice. My heart skipped a beat when he called me sweetheart. He hold me closer putting his hand on my arm and continued walking in darkness.

I was just walking holding his hand. He suddenly stopped

-"Faisal......"

-"Count backwards from 10."

-"Huh?"

-"Count."

-"Okay. 10. 9. 8. 7. 6. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1" Just when I said one the whole place got brighter. I looked around and found us in middle of a field. The whole field is having little green grass and there are many lanterns on the field between grass.

Suddenly very bright light came from my left side I got startled so I moved back. I saw a big tree at little distance which is decorated with fairy lights and a table is under the tree. There are fairy lights that are attached around the table making it look like a tent.

Then a path gets brighten which is leading the way from us to the table. The path is decorated with colorful glass stones which are shining like diamonds.

I smiled widely looking at all of these. My heart got filled with overbearing happiness. I always wanted my first date to be like this, under night sky near a tree decorated with lights. It's looking like my dream has come true.

I fell big arms surrounding my waist from behind. He pulled me closer and I put my hands above his on my waist.

-"How's it?" He asked in deep voice.

-"It's....... It's very...... Very beautiful." I said still not sure that it's true, everything is looking like a dream to me.

-"I'm glad you like it. Come."

We walked to the table through the glass stone pathway holding hands. Just as we reached near the table he forwarded a bouquet of orchids of different colors. I looked at his face still smiling

-"You know that I like orchids?"

-"I'm your husband and I know everything about you Angel."

My smile grew bigger hearing him and I hold the bouquet gazing at it lovingly.

-"So beautiful." I said dreamily looking at the flowers

-"Not more than you."

I immediately looked up hearing him and asked

-"You said something?"

-"You are more beautiful than any other thing in this world my Jaan."

He was looking at me with something in his eyes and I can't figure out what it is. It's something strange that I can't understand.

"And watching you smile gives peace to my heart. I can do anything for your smile."

-"Aww... Are you trying to impress me Mr?" I place the bouquet on table and asked coming near him crossing my hands over my chest.

-"No. I'm just telling you my feelings." He put his hands on my waist and pulled me closer. I gasped at his sudden action.

"Angel. Your happiness is my happiness. When you smiles I also smiles and when you cries, my heart also cries.

I'm not telling you this to impress you or something. I'm telling you this so that you can trust me, so that you can believe that everything that I does for you everything that I says to you is truth. Trust me."

-"I trust you." I put my hands on his chest. "I trust and believe every single word you speak.

And not only you, I also feels the same. Your happiness is my happiness and your pain is my pain. You are very important to me that I can't even imagine living without you. You are my everything Faisal."

He smiles and hugged me. I also hugged him back. Then after sometime he broke the hug and looked at me.

-"Let's eat food now, I'm hungry."

-"You hasn't eaten anything after breakfast right?"

-"No it's not like that I've drank 7 cups of coffee."

-"7 cups of coffee!" My eyes grew bigger hearing him. I immediately removed his hands from my waist. "Faisal. I gave you permission to drink coffee today, bit it doesn't mean that you can drink this much."

-"Jaan. I was nervous."

-"Nervous? Faisal I've told you na that drinking coffee this much is not good for health. You're really an idiot. You never listens to me. You scolds me that I don't takes care of myself properly, look what you're doing."

-"Jaan. It's our first date. Don't scold me today. Look here is your favourite strawberry shake. And I'm very hungry. You cares for me right? Now come let's eat."

After that we had our dinner and now we're having dessert. Like he promised, we're eating ice-cream. And I've also ordered choco lava cake. Actually were behind a hotel and the hotel is owned by my husband so I can eat anything I want.

When I was eating cake I noticed him that he hasn't ordered cake, he's busy in his dabba. On our special day also he's using his dabba. I hate this dabba. I'm gonna throw it away one day.

-"Husband. You should have bought your dabba only to this date. What was the need for me?" I said sarcastically. He immediately put down his phone.

-"Sorry. It was important mail."

-"Yes. Yes. Of course. Your mails and your dabba is more important."

-"Jaan. I'm sorry na. I'll not use this dabba tonight."

-"Okay. Then give it to me."

-"Huh?" He looked at me unbelievably like I've asked him to hand his whole company to Rehan Bhai.

-"I want your dabba." I declared. I snatched his dabba and put it in my pocket. Yes I have pocket in my skirt. He looked at me pouting.

"Aww... Don't be angry my baby. Have it."

I full a spoon of choco lava cake and moved it to his mouth. He turned his face to other side. I moved spoon there it he again did the same. I again moved spoon to him but he moved it away and it fell on his tshirt and jacket.

Spoon left my hands automatically. My eyes grew bigger and I covered my mouth with my hands in shock state. He moved his face up and looked at me. No. No. He glared at me angrily.

-"S...s...so...sor....sorry." i stammered. "I'm... I'm really sorry. It happened by mistake. I was just trying to feed you. I'm really sorry. Please I'm sorry." I said in one breath.

He smiled and shook his head in disbelief. Smile?

"You're not angry?" I asked him.

-"Why will I be angry?"

-"Because choco fell on your tshirt and jacket from my hands."

-"Jaan. I don't care about my clothes. The thing for which I cares is your happiness my Jaan."

-"But your tshirt and jacket........"

-"Firstly we have to buy another one before continuing our date."

-"Something is still left?"

-"Something? Many things are left. Come fast we don't have much time and I don't want to take photos like this."

-"Okay. Let's go."

Then we left towards a mall that is nearby. In the mall we searched for another clothes. But he choosed a white tshirt and a black denim jacket. When I asked him why same colors, he told me that our clothes will match this way. This man........

Now he is in changing room and I'm standing here waiting for him Zack is also standing at some distance. An old lady was coming towards me but Zack stopped her in midway. That lady signed towards the clothes at this section and again tried to come but Zack stopped her again. It's looking like they're arguing.

-"Zack! What happened?"

-"Nothing ma'am. Just this lady......."

-"Oh so this is your ma'am. Listen Miss. You are not the owner of this mall that you can do whatever you want. If you're that much rich then firstly buy this mall. I owns a very big hotel, I'm a millionaire and my son is also a millionaire. You are nothing in front of me " She said coming towards me.

This old mannerless rich spoiled lady how much attitude she has. She stands infront of me. Her wrinkled face is full with makeup and her lips are dark brown, she's looking like a witch.

Zoya. She's older than you. Manners.

-" Look old lady, I don't want to waste my time in flighting, specially not today."

-"How dare you call me old?! You b*tch!"

Zack marched towards us and glared towards her.

-"Mind your language otherwise......."

-"Zack!" I stopped him showing my palm. "I'll take care of her." He moved little back.

"Actually, I'm not Miss I'm Mrs. and I don't have to buy this mall because my husband is it's owner already. So please go and show your old rich attitude to someone else. Old mannerless lady."

-"You brat! If my son got to know that a mere bodyguard of yours stopped me and how you talked to me then he'll show you and your bodyguard your place. And your b*stard husband is nothing in front of my son."

-"Ma'am just give me permission I'll throw this old lady out in the middle of road."

-"You don't have to do this until I'm here." Then I turned to her.

"And you. Old lady, don't you dare speak a single word about my husband."

-"You wife of a motherf*cker!"

Zoya! Do the hell with manners now!

-"I was sparing you because you're an elder but not now."

I clutched her hairs tightly and she screamed in pain.

"I told you to not speak a single word about my husband. But you spoiled rich old mannerless lady whose wrinkled face which is full of cheap makeup and who is looking like a witch dared to say bad words for my husband."

-"Jaan! What is happening here?"

I turned my head and saw Faisal coming out of changing room.

"I've heard shouting voice. What happened?" He said looking at me confused.

-"Nothing Faisal. I was just showing an old mannerless lady her right place." I said leaving her hairs.

-"Faisal Khan." That lady speak and colors drained from Faisal's face. I saw that lady was smirking looking at him.

-"Y......y......yo.....you?" Faisal said stammering. What happened to him all of sudden? I moved to him.

-"Faisal......"

-"You are her husband?" Then she laughed.

Faisal shivered, he started sweating. His face is full of sweat and his eyes are showing fear.

What is happening to him?
