Chapter 6
"It is not difficult to understand you, it is impossible. Get me off here. I'll take a taxi and leave." She spoke helplessly.
"I can't leave you alone on this deserted road. So please tell me your address." Without looking at her face, he spoke.
His manner clearly showed that he was in great pain. Was it sad for Sophia to do that? Or was he sad about a false scandal that broke out in front of the media? She did not understand.
She gave him the address and looked at him silently.
"Will you please stop looking at me?" He chuckled.
"No. Why did I start looking at you?" She turned her attention to the windshield and looked out of the car.
"Aren't you afraid of me? Anything can happen to you on this dark road. Can't it be??" He asked while driving the car.
"No. Not at all." She smiled.
"Even though I am a stranger on this dark road with you, I have no fear that something bad might happen to me. Because I have a lot of confidence in myself. If someone touches me without my permission, I have enough courage to protect myself."
The scene from ten days ago came to her mind once again. She became silent.
Mr Ahan Yousuf giggled as she blinked her eyes at him.
"So, you think that your permission is necessary? You are very ignorant or you are trying to be."
There was another laugh from him.
"Although you are a bad person, I don't think you have a bad character."
Hearing her words, his face turned pale.
Hearing her opinion about himself, he was not able to see her.
Soon he was driving near his house.
"Hope we never meet again." When she got out of the car, he spoke.
She stopped as she left.
"You are saying I want to meet you," he said sarcastically.
"Can't you live without arguing? Get out of here quietly ... and don't come in front of me after today." He was tired of himself.
"OK fine." She said wearily and left.
She had left but he kept looking at her for a long time. As soon as she was out of sight, he reversed the car.
Something was different from what he was feeling. Today's scene began to swirl in his mind. Sophia's action and Rosie's reaction. His mind was numb.
***********
As soon as she took her first step into the house, she found Sameer there.
"Are you here at this time?" She asked casually and entered the house.
"Why are you not picking up my phone?" He followed her to the lounge.
"I was busy." She sat on the couch.
"Mom, give me some water." She spoke tiredly.
"Take it." Sameer filled a glass of water and placed it in front of her.
She was surprised to see Sameer's strange behaviour. She opened her eyes and looked at D'Souza questioningly.
In response, D'Souza shook her head, saying that she did not know anything.
"Sameer? Are you okay?" She took a sip of water and then spoke to him.
"By burning my blood, now you are asking me whether I am fine?" He laughed bitterly.
"How cruel you are, Rosie Haroon! How cruel you are!"
Now he smiled painfully.
"What happened to you? Why are you behaving like a child?" She came near him and spoke.
"Are you okay? What is the problem?"
"You are my problem... You!! What do you think that I am not worthy of you?" He almost screamed.
D'Souza was also surprised.
"Sameer. What happened, son? Why are you talking like that?"
"So, what should I do, aunty? asked her. What does she think about Ahan Yousuf Mir?" He asked tearfully.
Now she understood what he wanted to say.
"Oh! now I understand. So, you are also convinced, like everyone else, that there is a scene between me and him?" She was laughing.
"No! But I want to hear it from your mouth."
"Oh, seriously? So, listen... He and I are having a serious relationship. That's it? Now get out of here." She spoke plainly and asked him to leave.
"No! How can you do this to me?"
"Why can't I? If you don't believe in me, what do you think? I will try to make a person like you believe in me. Never Ever Sameer."
"So, it means all this is a lie?"
She did not give any answer to this question.
"Mom, give him a cup of tea so his mind may relax." Now she laughs.
"Because I do not have any time to give you to clear myself. Now it's up to you whether you believe me or not." She said with extreme pride.
He became quiet. After a profound silence, he spoke again.
"Your self-confidence brought me closer to you." Now his anger had cooled to some extent.
"Aunty, please bring biscuits along with tea."
He sat leaning on the chair. So, she also sat leaning on the chair in front of him.
"Sometimes, Sameer, you get very filmy. Really. "She was laughing.
"Anyway, I was wondering how you and Ahan Yousuf could have a relationship. Where is he and where are you?"
Now, there was seriousness on her smiling face. "What do you mean by that?"
"Don't you see? Where is he and where are you? Where can heaven and earth be together?" He explained.
"Get up from here." She got up from the chair and with a finger gesture asked him to get up too.
"Mom, there is no need to bring any tea". She called D'Souza into the kitchen, so she immediately went out.
"Rosie? What happened?" Sameer got up worried.
"Take this ring of yours. Keep it. I don't need it. She immediately took off the ring and placed it in his palm."
"Rosie! You are disrespecting me now."
"Oh. Good. So, what about that insult you did me a little while ago?" She said sarcastically.
"What is disrespectful? Tell me. This is the truth, isn't it? His and yours cannot be far apart," he affirmed.
