Just let me love you.. again (SEASON I)

chapter 27

.
Izhaan's POV
.

I was staring at Reem in utter shock, what is happening here?

This little boy is zuhan? And if he is zuhan, who was that guy Reem was sitting with. I was so confused

Reem got up with him in her arms.

"Zuhan!" A lady came running and stopped next to us, "you run so fast" she said

"Assalamualaikum ma'am" Reem said to her

"Walekumassalam Reem!" She hugged Reem, then wiped her tears.

I was looking at them trying to understand what is happening. As the confusion was not already enough, one more lady came, she smiled looking at Reem.

Why nobody was acknowledging me?

As if God answered my prayer, the lady who came in the last looked at me and smiled. I didn't even know how to react, so I just nodded at her.

"Where is Umar?" The lady who hugged Reem asked

"Sir is inside" Reem answered

Sir??

"Let's go then" she said and walked inside

"Di who is this?" Zuhan asked looking at me, Reem stood staring at me.

"Zuhan beta! This is your Di's prince" the lady who smiled at me answered, zuhan's face brightened

"Really?" He said excitedly

"Let's go inside zuhan" Reem said to him, then carried him inside

"But di i want to talk to the prince" he was shouting

"Hello Izhaan! I am Sheena" the lady introduced herself

"Do you know me?" I asked, she smiled

"I know everyone who is in Reem's life" she answered

"I am so confused right now"

"I can tell by looking at your face. By the way I really wanted to meet you for so long, but Reem never introduced me to you"

"How do you know Reem?" I asked

"It's a long story" She sighed

She answered all of my question, and I was beyond shocked to know, that the guy I was planning to murder was a five years old little boy, I felt so embarrassed and ashamed of myself.

"So you are saying that Reem goes to an orphanage?" I asked, she nodded

"Not even a day has passed when she had not paid a visit in last three years" i looked at her with wide eyes.

It was just not possible for me to picture Reem going to the orphanage. I can only picture her dancing in the club

"Reem likes kids?" I asked, I was still in shock

"More than you can imagine. Zuhan is her life, you know she wanted to adopt Zuhan but then she was not sure if you would be ok with it, and Zuhan also told Reem that he wants a father who loves him."

So this is what she was talking about with Ayesha!!

"She is happy that her teachers are planning to adopt him"

"The guy inside is her teacher at the university?" I was horrified

"Yes" she nodded

Shit shit shit

"Now we've met officially, visit the orphanage some day. It was nice meeting you. Bye" she said and went inside leaving me alone

I was feeling like an idiot, my chest felt heavy because the rock of regret was put on it. What the hell was I thinking?
