Ch.15
"Rosie Haroon. Don't forget your promise." He said that and hung up the phone.
Rosie removed the phone from her ear and lay down on the bed.
"Rustam Sir... What does he finally want from me? He has a problem with everyone. But why? Why? Why does he care so much?"
Thinking, this she slept.

All were invited to the evening event. It seemed that this event was arranged for the two to meet. All the guests were enjoying the slow music at the event. Suddenly his attention fell on the person in front of him.
"It even came here?" he thinks in his heart.
On the other side, Ahan Yousuf smiled.
As he was getting closer to her, she was moving her steps backwards.
He came towards her with a quick step.
"Don't worry. I know my limit." He sneered and moved forward.
"What a wasteful person he is. No moral values. He can't even respect a girl."
She said to himself.
The next moment she received a message on her phone.
"I will wait for your message at night."
She read the message and started muttering.
"All the problems are just for me. That means I won't be able to sleep peacefully. I will have to go and talk to him from here."
She took the phone in hand.
"Look, I'm at an event. I'm sending you a link to my address. Come on."
As soon as the other person got the message, he smiled.
"Close your eyes and feel me. You will find me close to you."
"What do you think I'll do?" She laughed and typed the message.
"Yes. Because you are obliged to obey everything I say. And please, no more arguments. Close your eyes and feel me. Surely you can find me right in front of you."
At Last, she closed her eyes and opened them after a moment's delay.
The person standing in front of her eyes was smiling.
"Ahan Yousuf." She took his name under her breath.
And she walked away with a quick step.
"Oh, My goodness…" She sighed and said to herself.

As soon as she got home, she had a short talk with D'Souza and pretended to be tired and went into the room.
As soon as she lay down on the bed, sleep came into her eyes. But the call from the unknown person was yet to come.
As soon as her phone rang, she picked up the phone on the first ring.
"I'm so tired. I want to sleep. I'll talk later." She said angrily.
"Be Careful. No need to make excuses. Got it." He said angrily.
"Why would I make excuses?"
It was almost that she would appear.
"Rosie... I have waited for you all day. And you sleep happily? Why?"
"After all, you want to make me uncomfortable?"
"No, not at all. I want you to find peace by talking to me. As much as you get tired, you can calm down by telling me about the state of your heart."
"Please, Mr Rustam. Peace and from you? Just a few hours ago, the blindfolded sensation therapy proved to be a lot of nonsense."
"Why? Didn't you feel me? Didn't you see me?"
"You?" She laughed.
"Ahan Yusuf Mir… Ahan Yusuf was in front. A very useless person."
"It seems you don't like him."
"Yes. Of course. It seems like poison to me." There was poison in his tone.
"By the way, you hugged him. Now, who was the bad guy?" He spoke meaningfully.
"Please. I already told you why I did all that."
"Fine. Fine. But he's not that bad."
"Oh. Seriously? He just cares about his father's money. Nothing else."
"What does mean?" He was shocked.
"The meaning is clear. He has nothing of his own. He is enjoying himself with his father's money.
"I am damn sure today if he is asked to bring the money of his hard work, he will have nothing."
On the other side, there was deep silence from the unknown person. It felt like something had died inside him. After a short pause, he took a deep breath and then spoke.
"Earning is not a difficult task for a man. He just has to have a reason to earn."
"What does it mean?" He did not understand.
"Maybe there is no reason to work hard in his life."
Now Rosie laughed out loud.
"Please. Rustom sir."
"If there is anything else, then do it. Why are you talking about him?" She was bored.
"I think you should sleep." Even though he didn't want to, the unknown person hung up the phone and got lost in some deep thought while taking a puff of a cigarette.
When the phone was switched off by him, she calmed down. she put the phone on the table and closed her eyes and fell asleep.
The next morning, she woke up a bit calmer. It seemed that all her fatigue was gone. D'Souza was overjoyed when she noticed a positive change in her behaviour.
"Maybe she was more upset because of Sameer." Look at her, she said this in her heart.
Rosie was enjoying her breakfast. And today she also drank two cups of tea.
"Aunt Ayesha came yesterday. She was saying that she came to apologize to you."
Hearing her words, Rosie stopped sipping tea.
"Excuse me? Oh. Yeah. Good."
"If she comes today, please tell her that after today we will not buy groceries from her shop."
Before D'Souza spoke, she got up from the chair and came to the door with her bag hanging on her shoulder.
"And please don't worry. I will come in the evening and bring things for the home."
She said as she left and came out of the house.
She had just left the house when her phone rang. "I am going to the office now. We will talk in the evening."
She said while receiving his phone.
"Why? Why in the eve?"
"Ugh. I have a lot of work to do…"
"What are the chores?" He cross-examined.
"Now this is also necessary to tell you?"
"Yes, of course." He said with a laugh.
"After the kids' party, I have to go to get some things for home on my way back. What things to buy now? I don't even have a good idea."
