A Love Story

First Day

"Shaad! Maa is call.." We looked up and saw Rehan bursting in from the door "calling you." He completed his sentence shifting his eyes from Shaad's face to mine.

There was an awkward silence and a  weird staring game going on between us. Rehan looking from Shaad and me. Shaad looking from me to Rehan, trying to figure out why was Rehan so interested in us and I, staring at two Khan's, whose eyes were piercing me.

"Can we just...stop staring at each other?" I spoke breaking the silence. 
Both brothers looked down mumbling haa and hmmsss.

"What haa and hmmss? Boys..your mom.. " I looked at Shaad "your mom is waiting for you so just go." I said pointing my both hands towards door. He nodded and walked ahead "Clear the way Rehan." He asked his brother whose eyes were still locked on me.

He blinked and looked at Shaad, bobbing his head "umm..haa go." He said moving aside.

I sighed looking at the scene going in front of me. "Oh madhubala! Why you guys are doing everything in slow motion? " I called out.

Both of then turned looking at me "madhubala? " both Rehan and Shaad asked me in confusion. I shook my head pushing both of them aside and walking passed them.

Even that split second of touch of his body didn't failed to make me get goosebumps. I turned to looked at Rehan whose hand were resting right there,where I had touched him seconds ago. As my eyes moved from Rehan to Shaad, he was mirroring his brother's action.

I blinked at them, shaking my head and shoving all thoughts out, I exited from there and walked out ,climbing down the stairs and got into garden area where a stage was set up and small kids were dancing. As soon as they spotted me, they came to me running "Iqra appi, please dance with us na." They requested making cute faces and pulling me with all their strength. I giggled at their cute action  and sat on grass stubbornly "Nope, Iqra appi is not going to dance. " I shook my head and speaking in childish voice.

"But why?" They asked me holding my chin. Awww, Fiza is so cute.

"You have to bribe your Iqra appi." I said carrying a evil grin and bobbing my head.

"Bribe?" She widen her eyes and I nodded "yes, bribe!"

"What do you want appi?"

"A kiss from allllllll..." I moved my finger pointing each of them "......of you."

They all clapped and giggled giving me pecks on my cheek, one by one. I smiled and giggled with them

"Appi! You got total 13 kissie, now you have to dance with us everyday. " Idra, my cousin brother's 6 year old daughter said.

"Areee...that's not fair." I protested

"It is! Now chalo and let's dance." She held my hand pulling me. I stood up and walked to stage dancing with them on Cham Cham.

There was nothing like dancing there. I was only jumping and twirling with them. Giggling, laughing that's was all which was heard there.

Out of no where Rehan jumped in showing his hip hop move and all the children started clapping. Fiza and Idra pulled him beside me and we looked at each other.

To naacho aaj I winked at him and all of us started dancing again.

"Iqra! I am coming too!" Nihal called and started to show her move.I joined her too and we danced together in perfect sync.

Because of our dancing people stood there enjoying our unplanned performance.
