Asad's POV ,
"Is it you, Heeba?" I inquired, glancing at a girl who resembled her, and she turned. I was correct; she was my Heeba. I approached her and hugged her. For the first time in my life, I didn't think her grin was genuine when she gave it to me this time. She even returned my embrace with enthusiasm.
"Hey there, smarty. Don't say you missed me." I remarked, teasingly, as I looked down at her. She slipped out of my grasp and smacked me across the chest. I burst out laughing at her. My arm was still over her shoulder.
"I assumed you wouldn't come." She stated this while staring at me. Her eyes were filled with disappointment. As though she was terrified her trust in me would be shattered.
"Why would I not if I had promised you? My promise to you means more to me than anything else." I responded to calm her down. She nodded her head in agreement.
