It was 6 Am. in the morning and the cozy living room of Shaheera's and Jasra’s apartment was buzzing with activity. Suitcases were scattered around as she and Jasra prepared for the upcoming business trip to France. Jasra couldn't help but tease Shaheera for taking what seemed like her entire wardrobe for just a seven-day trip.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngHoh8Bqbr
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGqrFa4Tuq
"Seriously, Shaheera, do you plan on opening a boutique there?" Jasra joked, eyeing the mountain of clothes that Shaheera was trying to fit into her suitcase.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVXCl5ap2k
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMhO3IXk7B
Shaheera laughed, brushing off her friend's playful banter. "I just want to be prepared for any occasion. You never know what might come up during the conference."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxYaULuwRx
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RzOhBhmzk
Amidst the packing chaos, Shaheera couldn't resist asking Jasra about work. "By the way, who will be taking over for Hasan while he's away at the conference?"506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS4O3f0bUp
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkEhJR3nWy
Jasra's face lit up with amusement. "Oh, it's going to be Yaasir. He's quite the character, and he's definitely funnier than Hasan. Mr. I-Know-everything is about as funny as a dead body."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZXzizdRlH
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFIKvJI4Bc
Shaheera chuckled, remembering their lighthearted encounter in the parking lot. It had been some time since she had heard from Hasan, and she wondered if he was doing well.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCjmNp9Sob
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVNKsok69G
After what seemed like an eternity of packing, a car horn honked outside. It was Thomas, Rima, and Mark, who had come to pick her up for their trip to the airport. Shaheera quickly donned her beige hijab and joined her friends in the car, her suitcase finally zipped shut.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeUm2E0b0O
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoHEQ94U50
“Be careful!” Jasra shouted from the window. “And come back with real chocolate! I can deal with the one they sell here.”506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jGra0GRjU
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz7uxGtZJ5
The car ride to the airport was filled with laughter and singing, as they decided to have an impromptu karaoke session to lighten the mood. Shaheera felt grateful for the companionship of her friends, and the nervousness she had felt about the trip began to subside. At the airport, they smoothly navigated through the check-in and security process. However, at the security checkpoint, Shaheera encountered a small challenge. She was asked to remove her hijab for security purposes, which left her feeling a bit uneasy. Rima quickly stepped in, offering her jacket to cover Shaheera while she complied with the security procedures. Her friends' support made her feel more at ease, and she knew that she was not alone in these moments of discomfort.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBWSzFIYAC
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHqvY4YVyN
Once on the plane, Shaheera found her seat near the aisle, and she couldn't believe her eyes when she saw someone familiar walking down the aisle. It was Hasan. They both smiled at the serendipitous encounter, and Shaheera introduced him to her friends and colleagues.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1lI316C8C
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPAADYS9gM
“Hasan! What are you doing here?” She asked her smile as wild as the pleasure she felt to see him after so long. Hasan smile disappeared, seeing her friends behind her looking at him, wondering who he was. He coughed a little, making himself time to build his confidence back. And with his usual stoic face, he answered her.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0bddSlO1o
“Well, I’m going to the conference. The same one you invited me.”506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxRGVdwG21
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAku4S1495
Shaheera looked nervous. “You’re stupid,” she thought to herself. “Of course, he’s going to the conference, what did you think he would answer?”506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxg2vprCNAJ
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1aIbZlSzd
"Yes of course” she chuckled shyly. “Hmm, well, Hasan meet Thomas, Rima, and Mark. They are the wonderful people I get to work with," Shaheera said with a warm smile trying to hide her embarrassment.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ89YcFE3cK
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsGFydzSZZ
"Nice to meet all of you," Hasan greeted them politely, his eyes lingering on Shaheera. "I didn't expect to see you on this flight."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuALFpTygqI
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVh2mOtJWB
"It was the cheapest," Rima chimed in with a playful wink.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzXQwp8SIa
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfiILl3MGK
As Hasan took the seat next to the aisle, Shaheera felt a sense of comfort knowing she wouldn't be alone during the long journey. Shaheera was sitting by the aisle, on the right side of the plane. To his left was Rima, deep in conversation with Thomas. Hasan sat next to Shaheera, on the other side of the aisle, on the right side of the plane. Mark to his right. Shaheera smiled at him and then joined Thomas and Rima’s conversation waiting for teh plane to take off. However, she heard her right deep breath. She looked at Hasan and saw him eyes closed.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtOHuUvekE
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3thmgi6P4
“Scared of planes?” she asked in a low voice, leaning in the aisle.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPxujyiZm7
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8tzaCdMAy
“You’re not?” he answered his eyes still closed, head back.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfr8ucRcIw
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTQSIXBkb7
“I’ve taking planes since I was a baby.” she laughed. Hasan didn’t answer anything and just kept his eyes closed. “Come on, Hasan, it's just a short flight to France near Switzerland. We'll be there before you know it."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aMyAPmXKj
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nYAZI12BC
"Just a short flight, huh?" Hasan said, trying to sound nonchalant. "I guess you're right. I've flown many times before."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MBbT7voGB
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6wLAXLw1f
Shaheera knew that Hasan was trying to put on a brave front, but she also knew that his fear was genuine. She decided to engage him in conversation to take his mind off the flight. "Need anything?” she finally asked softly. Hasan looked at her, astonished to hear her usual joyful voice, calm and almost tender. Her eyes were full of concern and her mouth forming a grin. he closed his eyes rapidly.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaddOQPfSyf
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbT6n6NNcy
“Just … Talk to me? If you don’t mind?” he asked shyly. She had never seen him so vulnerable.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtGBQfqmpo
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEpPYjFp90
"So, have you ever been to France before?" Shaheera asked, hoping to steer the conversation to a more pleasant topic.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpzhtaIjyh
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTclbGo1DO8
"No, this will be my first time," Hasan replied, his voice a bit tense. "I'm looking forward to exploring a new country, though."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IF7BG8EHF
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsr6w6fkJ35
"That's great! France is beautiful, and I'm sure you'll love it," Shaheera said warmly. "We have some exciting plans lined up for the conference and a bit of sightseeing, too."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIh3iirBTc
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0llBLofEw
Hasan nodded, trying to focus on the positive aspects of the trip. "Yes, I've heard that the conference is going to be quite interesting. I'm looking forward to it."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknHLQ2nxzT
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPybc9RgQb
As the flight progressed, Shaheera kept the conversation light and engaging, talking about their travel experiences and sharing funny anecdotes from previous trips. She cracked jokes and teased Hasan playfully, trying to make him laugh.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nDdMkNjWA
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsozIJlV1O
"You know, Hasan, I heard that airplanes are statistically safer than cars. So, technically, we're in good hands!" Shaheera said with a smirk.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuTeR8a34i
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOYezbgMza
Hasan couldn't help but chuckle, "I suppose you're right. I'll just have to trust in the statistics."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡel9g3QzD0a
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh89iDNOm1N
"That's the spirit!" Shaheera exclaimed, giving him an encouraging pat on the shoulder.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNfhmbtR1j
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku1gsbZJgu
As the flight continued, Shaheera and Hasan chatted about their favorite foods, music, and hobbies, discovering shared interests and laughing at each other's quirks.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kzvDIVTYO
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprf2tPIITe
"By the time we land, you'll forget all about your fear of flying," Shaheera said confidently, giving him a wink.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxrPA9nKa9
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugllm2Td7i
Hasan smiled genuinely, "I have to admit, you're quite the distraction. Thanks for keeping me company."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSc6QPavWPA
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8j6HwUQhd
"It's my pleasure," Shaheera replied warmly. "We're in this together, and I won't let you feel anxious alone."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKseKy0JF8X
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGyjN9mA93
With Shaheera's humor and support, the flight that once seemed daunting became more bearable for Hasan. He found himself enjoying their conversation, forgetting about his fear, if only for a little while.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72melgnqNY
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFewIk9JoJE
Time seemed to fly by as they exchanged stories and laughter, the hours on the plane passing by in a blur of meaningful conversations. Shaheera felt a newfound connection with Hasan, and the chemistry between them was undeniable.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5e2QBCpY7A
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yKtvsG3n3
As they flew towards the border of Switzerland, the sun began to set, painting the sky with hues of pink and orange. The beauty of the moment was not lost on Shaheera, and she couldn't help but share the view with Hasan.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Xmr1O2tkW
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9id2WYeSk4
"Look outside, Hasan. The sunset is breathtaking," she said, pointing to the window.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirAxGChENv
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTai0D4KKtG
Hasan followed her gaze and admired the scenery. "It's stunning," he replied softly looking back at her, not sure if the compliment was for the vue or her.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpyOSfznmK
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxvV3s1CZd
Shaheera blushed, feeling her heart skip a beat at his words. The playful teasing and professional facade seemed to have dissolved, leaving behind a tender connection that was impossible to ignore.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85nRHviMb9
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswKRFZu50D
The plane's tires gently touched the tarmac as it landed at the airport in France, near the Switzerland border. Shaheera, Thomas, Rima, Mark, and Hasan disembarked, the excitement of the trip still lingering in the air. Amidst the joyful chatter of her friends and colleagues, Hasan remained quiet, his mind preoccupied with thoughts he dared not express.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKMAI1vGkA
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbJ1xl9UgK
As they made their way through the airport, Mark detached himself from the group and approached Hasan with a friendly smile. For a moment, Hasan wondered if Mark was the one Shaheera was promised to marry, his heart clenching at the thought. However, he pushed those thoughts aside, keeping his emotions hidden behind a stoic facade.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy83Uj8kdZ4
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisLmq6T2fE
The group gathered outside the airport, and a friendly taxi driver approached them, speaking rapidly in French. Hasan looked at him with a blank expression, not understanding a word. Shaheera came to the rescue, fluently conversing with the driver and providing the destination details of their hotel.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxShk2PRL9
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZYoFNTLZ4
They split into two cars due to space constraints, and Hasan found himself in one with Thomas and Mark. Thomas expressed his delight at having Shaheera on the team, while Mark playfully teased that Thomas was lucky. Hasan listened in silence, the doubts he harbored growing stronger with each passing word.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ197MLLcJ3M
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkicS0uPUF
“So,” he finally said out loud after long minutes of silence, “You and Shaheera are …” he waited for one of them to finish.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdVBAzouPq
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45NsIC9rOa
“Oh no!” Mark finally said, laughing shyly, scratching the back of his head. “We’re just good friends, she supported me when I decided to convert. Nothing going on between us.”506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ97uXlVq5i
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WpRGeAmSg
“But you wish!” Interrupted Thomas.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oLcb04n2d
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU2h0hN2Yl
Their voices faded into the background as Hasan's thoughts consumed him. He couldn't help but wonder about the unspoken feelings between him and Shaheera. Still, he chose to remain silent, convinced that it was best to keep his emotions concealed.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOhyJxMa6q
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl219GAY9ga
The journey to their hotel was long and Hasan stayed reserved, his attention shifting between the interactions around him and the views outside the window. The Alps loomed in the distance, their majestic peaks seemingly mirroring the uncertainty he felt within.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hBbO7UrX8
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjh1AJ4pig
Arriving at the hotel, Hasan noticed Shaheera and Rima chatting animatedly as they entered the lobby. He admired Shaheera's energy and charm from afar, captivated by her presence.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLaLVDNbHV
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSATrViaIq
As the hours passed, the group settled into their rooms, each preparing for a much-needed rest after the long journey. He couldn't deny the connection they shared, but fear held him back from expressing his feelings. And in this moment his mother was searching for him to marry. Someone he would share his life with.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNPbv3c8fF

The conference preparation was in full swing, and Shaheera found herself working late into the night to ensure everything was ready for the big day. As the only one fluent in French, she took charge of handling all the intricate details of the event, making sure nothing was overlooked. After the long trip they had, all she wanted was to go to sleep and take a bath if she could.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboVXUAxkOz
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodlOx2SEaa
The hotel receptionist seemed to be inattentive, and Shaheera was growing frustrated. She had reserved a specific room for the conference, and when she arrived to check on its setup, she found it messy and unclean.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6s3ip7MeZ
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2awEC8OHb
"Excuse me," Shaheera said, trying to keep her composure, "but this room was supposed to be cleaned and ready for the conference. We have just two days left!"506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNnSnwWety
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM8O2gBixH
The receptionist glanced at her briefly before returning to whatever he was doing, seemingly uninterested.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdbGgkGAFJ
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWxB2DdVqR
Hasan, who had been roaming restlessly outside the hotel lobby, unable to find sleep, noticed Shaheera at the reception desk, fervently discussing the situation.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEj6gupRkyy
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMR4OGoh8eb
"What is she doing here at this hour?" Hasan wondered.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fDuIpdPC6
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡny4IWTv6g7
As he was about to step in and offer his help, Mark appeared out of nowhere and offered his assistance to Shaheera.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5muY9dP98o
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwad65YrLD
"Hey, need a hand with something? I can help," Mark said with a cheerful smile.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLetNbvKLG
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnWTx21R3m
Shaheera looked thankful but declined politely, "Thank you, Mark, but it's okay. You should get some rest. I'll manage."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1Eli31GjV
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5UiQ0WjpR
Mark insisted playfully, "You sure? I'm here if you need anything."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvmDBnk1UU
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIMWNK6twM
"I appreciate it, but really, you should go and rest. I'll handle this," Shaheera assured him with a bitter smile.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7njceP7XEr
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabswLR3XbU
Mark bid her goodnight and left, still unaware of Hasan's presence nearby. As soon as Mark disappeared, Hasan stepped forward, deciding it was his moment to intervene.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDM1zQaSL10
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtRxkJ9hLb
"Hey, Shaheera, do you need any help?" Hasan asked softly.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhyTbHdla4
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhR9gpzT7Dv
Shaheera turned, surprised to see Hasan standing there. A smile lit up her face, "Hasan! It's good to see you. You know, you have a knack for showing up at just the right time."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRpPUMT6zn
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnL7p6Dcp7a
Hasan chuckled, "Really? No one's ever told me that I have good timing before."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaxepbMIqJ
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYWz5jKGS3
"Well, I'm telling you now. You have perfect timing!" Shaheera said with a teasing glint in her eyes.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HfALJr4hx
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGk0Dmpwjzj
They shared a laugh, and Hasan felt a sense of warmth in Shaheera's presence. The receptionist came back and explained to Shaheera the procedure and what the hotel could do for the room to be prepared in time. Hasan felt stupid. He had offered his help but with no French he was useless. he just states beside her, arms crosses, looking indifferent like he was always looking. the problem handled, they moved away from the reception desk, standing near a window overlooking the night-lit city.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT98uYb2413
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKJKVVLhaW
"You know," Shaheera began, her tone softer now, "I left France to come to Canada for a fresh start. It was a big decision, leaving everything behind, but I needed a change. It’s weird to come back."506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB50Ie9N8jQ
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHjHi5wPrW
Hasan listened attentively, realizing that Shaheera was opening up about her past.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VDVi9iWd3
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqt8CJUKa9a
"Why did you choose Canada?" Hasan inquired with genuine curiosity.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rr1WQDLP5
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvq4YsePu13
"I had always dreamt of experiencing life in a different country, and Canada seemed like the perfect place. It's diverse, welcoming, and has so much to offer," Shaheera explained thoughtfully. “And I love snow” she finished.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c06ZRQ2AQ
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxdXBZ7Mp7
Hasan admired Shaheera's resilience and courage. He could see the determination in her eyes as she talked about her journey. However, when it came to sharing his own life story, he hesitated.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNrjDPTagG
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzcthCSe15
"You've adapted so well. It's admirable. And you know, I've never really went to Pakistan. I sometimes regret this decision" Hasan revealed with a hint of vulnerability.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncwJ30ecSC
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC52AD8levA
"Really? I bet it's an incredible place. You should consider traveling sometimes," Shaheera suggested warmly.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuIzZcOF6X
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfGAJie1wu
"Maybe I will, someday," Hasan replied, a faint smile playing on his lips, but he didn’t say more. They fell into a comfortable silence, both lost in their thoughts and the night's tranquility.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYb9yRIKVh

“It’s fine”506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2RcB37IPe

“I’m sure I’ll reciprocate. No plan for a wedding?” She finally asked. Hasan eyes stopped their contemplation of the sky and went to her. This would have been the perfect moment to confess. But from what he heard from Jasra, she was engaged. And even though they knew each other for such a short time, all he wanted was to see her smile. either it was with him or not. He coughed a little, his eyes drifting back to the sky above.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKL1nhF6oj
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSdE8A7JZg
“Arranged marriage. My mother is looking for someone who could share my life,” he said in a low voice, almost like a whisper. To make it sound like a lie or a dream that was never real. because the person he wanted to learn about and marry was right beside him. “You? Any plan?” he asked innocently.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbnVrfj0Ry

Hasan thought he was falling for a second. She was not engaged? What did that witch of Jasra say? The weight of uncertainty that had been pressing on him since their encounter in the parking lot suddenly lifted, and a glimmer of hope sparked within him. He couldn't deny the rush of relief and excitement that washed over him, knowing that she was still available. But he kept his emotions carefully concealed, unsure of what the future held for them.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQTVQ0Lfpr

They shared a handfull of minutes and separated ways, wishing each other goodnight.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIqKPrAw1W

Hasan couldn't help but feel a growing fondness for Shaheera, appreciating her honesty and kindness. But he knew that their connection went beyond mere friendship, and he felt the pull of emotions that he was not yet ready to confront.
