The Tenants from Flat no #2- Part 13

As soon as Zain closed the door, the argument brewed between them. "I told you she would get to know.", Jasmine argued. "She didn't get to know. You heard that. She didn't hear anything, darling. You are thinking too much.", he asserted on his stand. "I am thinking too much? You don't know what could have happened?  She would have killed us if she got to know. I don't know whether she heard our conversation or not.", she protested.

He couldn't take it any longer. Her reasons were based on her fear. She was getting worried over nothing. He walked closer to her and hugged her. She resisted it. "Relax! I know you had a bad day. She doesn't know. She said she didn't hear. Even if she heard and throws us away, I won't leave you alone. I will always be your side. Why worry today about what will happen tomorrow?", he whispered.

His warm hug melted her heart. She wanted to stay in his embrace forever. All her worries vanished. She felt secure. She was convinced that nothing wrong would happen when he was there. She believed his words. She was worrying too much and for those things that didn't take place. "You are right. But what about dinner? Aren't you hungry", she said with smile.

He quickly ordered something. They settled for something vegetarian this time. The night went smoothly. "I am tired of eating out. Hopefully we will get to make something from tomorrow.", she complained. "It's been two days, babe. You are bored with outside food?  I have heard girls love to be pampered with outside food.", he joked. She frowned but smiled. "Not all girls are the same." she said.

They watched a movie after dinner. It was too boring. Jasmine slept during the first half of the movie. He stared at her innocent face. He fell in love with her all over again. He bent down to kiss her forehead but stopped in middle when she moved a little. He learnt something new about her. She was light sleeper and one could melt her temper with just one hug.  He smiled at this realization.


Suddenly he carried her gently towards her room. She did wake up. She did feel someone carrying her but she was too tired for the day to realize what was happening. He tucked her in her blanket. Before switching off the light, he stared at one last time. His eyes were filled with love and care. He headed towards his room after switching off light.
