26. Clumsy

First of all EID MUBARAK GUYS!! I hope Allah grants us all the wishes we asked him to, accepted all our worships, supplication, fasts and prayers. Keep all our parents, family, relatives and acquaintances safe and healthy. Also, this Corona-Pandemic ends too. SAY AMEEN PEOPLE! Ameen.

A little Eidi from me to you guys :p

"Pass me that jug." I heard Fahad from beside me.

"Hmm." I passed the jug. I still kept my mouth shut so that he knows that I am angry at him because of what he did last night.

It was the next day, we were all having breakfast when this idiot decided to irritate me with his presence.

"Pass the jam bottle." He again asked.

I glared at him, however passed the bottle.

"Pass me the salt. Now."

"Fahad you are literally eating a jam-butter sandwich! Why do you need salt? Oh yes! To irritate me, right?" I whispered angrily at him.

"Hey! I just asked you to pass that sprinkler! You inhuman!"

"Whom did you call an inhuman?"

"Probably the one who is asking this question." He cocked his eyebrows at him.

"Look, I am not your maid, servant, slave or any kind assistant so if you want something just get up and take. You get that?" I told him and continued eating my breakfast.

"I was asking you only because you were closer to it."

"Rehanna is more closer, ask her." I smirked at and in return he glared at me, very hard.

However I didn't want Rehanna to pass the sprinkler. I don't know why? And I was also feeling a slightly relief that he didn't like her much. So I took the sprinkler and I was going to give him when it slipped it from my hands and hit him.

Oh God! I am in trouble now.

"I am so sorry! It happened by mistake." I apologized.

Damn my clumsiness!

By now everyone on the table was staring at us.

"No need for your sorry." He gritted his teeth at me and got up. I guess it did hurt him. The salt sprinkler.

"AllahHafiz (Parting greeting. Basically means let God be with you) everyone. I gotta go." He bid his goodbyes. Everybody answered him.

"AllahHafiz Fahad!" Rehanna chimed in. Ugh why my heart doesn't like it?

It was nearing to lunch time, after offering my Salah (prayer), I called my mom and asked how was her trip. I also got a call from Mira who said that she wanted to meet me. Even I miss her. She said that she is gonna go to Rahim's office so after that we could meet at the café.

I thought why not go to Fahad's office with lunch as a sorry. Yes! That's a good idea. Even though I dislike him I think he deserves a sorry. Why now? I don't have any answers for that.

I quickly went to the kitchen and packed his lunch. I hope he doesn't eat his lunch outside today. Everyday he always eats from outside and I think that it is not good.

"I am going to meet Mira Mom! AllahHafiz!" I told her when I was wearing my footwear.

"Taking Alizah along with you?" She asked me.

"Umm yes! You will be fine? All alone?" I asked her as all the others: Uncle Zoheb, Aunt Meher, Rehanna and Azra went for outing. Uméma decided to show them around and Aunt Naaz didn't go as she would get tired and I didn't want to intrude the family time by joining them, everybody did force but I didn't want to and with Alizah then never and Fahad gave his typical excuse of work.

"Yes I will be fine you enjoy AllahHafiz. Take care." She said and went inside after I bid my goodbyes.

"Okay Ali Baby Let's go meet your Dad okay." I took the lunch box and Alizah. I and Mira met at Target as my car was still there. I had a new key this time and filled the gas too. I just hope that there is no other problem this time.

"Well, how is married life going?" Mira asked me once I started the car and Alizah was on her lap.

"Ugh...Mira I told you everything and still you ask the same question!" I answered her tiredly.

"But I didn't ask about your marriage."

"You know that it's complicated." I said with a grim tone.

"I really hope that you and Fahad were married in some different circumstances." Mira said keeping one of her hand on my shoulder.

"See Mira I am not going to be delusional, like you were -no offense. But yes I would like myself get married, not this young. Someday of course. With Fahad? Mmm...I don't think so but yes to some other person or maybe him." I mumbled the last part.

"What? Him?" Mira teased.

"I said 'maybe' too." I clarified.

"His nature is good. Only with you he argues because to other people he is the nicest of all."

"And nature matters the most Mira. But you know what? He is not the same Fahad which I had met on your wedding." I informed her.

"Maybe should ask Uméma about it." Mira spoke hesitantly.

I thought to ask why but we had already reached our destination.

"Come on Alizah lets go." Mira got out kissing her cheeks.

I parked my car, took the lunch and walked towards Mira who was standing near the lift.

"What will you be doing till I go and meet Rahim?" Mira asked me.

"You go enjoy your time. Newly married couple. I and Alizah will just stroll around." I teased her.

"Ahem...it's been one month since we are married and I guess one week since you and Fahad got married I guess you should enjoy your time. Newlyweds." She grinned widely and proceeded inside the lift. Leaving me with Alizah and my rosy red cheeks.

"He is on the eighteenth floor. You could anyway meet him." She shouted once she was inside the lift and the door it was going to close.

Idiot!

Actually I did come to give him the lunch box. So I went to the eighteenth floor.

Ugh...handling Alizah, lunchbox and Alizah's bag pack is quite challenging. Not to forget my own sling bag.

Who told him to build his office on eighteenth floor? I mean first or second floor was also okay. Now, Alizah started crying in between.

"Why baby why are you crying?" I groaned. I have changed her diaper and tummy is also full. It is not even her sleeping time then why?

I heard my phone ping and I looked at it to find that Mira has sent me pictures of mine and Fahad's. One was taken on our wedding day. Where I was looking at him before signing the papers. The other was when we were glaring at each other at Target and some more randomn pictures.

And a message sent by her: 'Captured when you guys were busy with each other. Enjoy ;)'

I will talk to her later about this. Let her come. I saw that Alizah had stopped crying. She was looking at the pictures which Mira had sent. Her gaze focused on the picture of mine and Fahad's, more precisely his. It means she was missing Fahad.

"Awww. . . My baby is missing her Dad? We will go and meet him. We are almost there baby." I said after putting my phone in my bag and managed to wipe her tears with one hand.

We finally reached on the eighteenth floor and Alizah was still whining.

I walked to his office, after a lot of convincing to the employees out there that I am his wife, here Alizah did a great help though I told them that I have baby too, of mine and his, after observing the similarities in her, they allowed me.

Fahad Sheikh was engraved on the door in a classy font. Alizah was wailing, rotating in my arms. What magic has Fahad done on her that she is missing him to this extent?

I was going to open the door when Alizah caught my hair and that caused me to trip.

And that's when the door open.

Me and my clumsiness. How much am I going to embarrass myself?
