Saliha raised her eyes and looked at Roman, who was watching the news with his expression poker as usual.She was lost in his features again when he spoke without looking at her, she got her senses back.“What’s on my face?” he asked in a deep voice making her startled.The phone fell from her hands and he looked at her.She nods his head in disappointment.“I. I am going to cook something. I should ask Sana what she will eat,” she said.“She is not home,” he said while turning his face towards the television.“What? But it’s 8:40 p.m. She should be home Roman. Aunt Eliza forbade us to remain out after 8,” she said.He did not answer.“Now what should I do?” she muttered.“Your freaking cousin…must be fucking around and you are worried for nothing,” he said with, a poker face.She gasped.“How could he curse so much?” she thought.“You should stop caring for people who do not care for you and your emotions,” he said.“But..” she tried to say something when he abrupted her.“She is you

She was waiting for him and it was nearly 11. pm in the night but he did not come. “Where he could be? Why did he walk out of the house these days?” she thought worried. She was all alone in the huge house, maids were all gone as well because of the pandemic. Her phone beeps and she grabs the phone from the surface of bed sheets. It was right outside. The atmosphere was chilly and anxious at the same time. It was an SMS from Hunza and at the same time, she received a text from Hania in their combined W******p group. “Have you heard? Professor has given us the topics to finish our assignment and we have to submit it by morning,” said Hunza. “What?” she typed with a scary emoji. “Yeah, I am telling you the truth, here are topics for us,” said Hania. “It is about the history of modern sciences, I can do that easily. Hunza got Biotechnical war, oh I wish I could research that,” typed Hania. Hunza sends her a hand emoji.“Thanks, Hunza, and you Saliha, are going to get FTV Virus and

Adam gave Saliha a sign to sit on the nearby chair. More than twenty-five people appeared horizontally on the screen; twelve were on top the remaining 12 were in the next line and one person was on top of the screen. He seemed to be some kind of leader. “Hello Mr. Private, I have found that this virus was created, I think, the sample we got is the one containing a virus,” said Mr. Adam. Saliha was looking at the transparent screen as if she was watching some movie. “I was right, this virus was indeed created,” said, a man who was appearing in the last.“Well, I have tried to find a way to eliminate it but it is still on my way to research,” said Mr. Adam. “Well, Adam you have to find a way only we can trust you in the matter,” said the person who was on top. Saliha felt someone’s eyes on her. She narrowed her eyes and focused on every person’s eye and found one person staring at her. “And from the trust Mr. Adam, who is she, and what she is doing here?” asked the man who was st

“Hunza please drive fast,” Saliha said with tears in her eyes. “Saliha, relax, everything will be fine,” said Hania but Saliha was continuously crying and only Hunza knew what Saliha was fearing. She was more protective of Roman’s safety than her. The rain was heavily falling on the car’s glass. “What I should do? Please do it, hurry,” Saliha said, sobbing. Hunza accelerates the car and after a while, they are in front of Gardezi’s mention.Saliha got out of the car and rushed towards her house. “Saliha,” Hania cries out behind her. She was not listening to anyone. The police cars were parked out of their house. “Roman?” she screamed. “Roman? Roman?” she was continuously screaming his name. “Miss, you can’t go in,” said the police. “Shut the fuck up, this is my house, get out of my way,” she pushed the policeman aside; his shoulder got hit with the door and she walks inside. She looked around but was unable to find him and then her gaze fell on the body on the floor. It was a

She was sitting in front of the beach when he walked towards her. She was touching her toe with the water. She looked back from the corner of her eyes and knew he was standing there. They had been living here for one week and she had not talked to him. He walked ahead and sat beside her. She did not show any emotions. They have not talked for three days. “Nice weather,” she said. He did not answer. She was avoiding his eyes. “What are you hiding?” he asked. “Nothing..” she said, straightly. “Look me in the eyes,” he said. “I am not hiding anything,” she said while looking into his eyes and she got up. He held her forearm and she fell on his lap. It was all so sudden that she turned bright pink. “You know, I got my eyes on you,” he said. She came back to her senses and then she got up. “I am sorry, I just tripped,” she said and walked inside the house. “He will know, he will know for sure,” she thought panic. Just then she heard a thunderstorm. The rain started and it wa
