"Imad what happened?" Everyone was having breakfast when Imad entered there, his mother was the only one who saw red mark on his forehead.

"Nothing." one by one he examine his siblings and cousins to see their reaction but they were busy in their breakfast and he already knew none will dare to throw apple at him in the middle of night then his eyes fall on her.

His chachu who lived in Canada for more then fifteen years has returned yesterday with though he couldn't welcomed him because of his work but Imad remember his Chachu has a daughter maybe she is her.

Her face was down that her chin could touched her chest, her hair with was pulled together in high pony he saw a pinkish color on her cheeks, he took his eyes off from her and focused on his breakfast.

"I cannot eat that much." He heard an angelic voice, the same voice he heard last night, his heart was telling him to raise his head and see the owner of the voice, just get only a glimpse of her but he didn't.

"Chalta Hoon ammi." He wiped his mouth by napkin and got up.

"Chalta Hoon nahi ataa Hoon, kitni dafa samjhaya hai." His mother scold him from behind but he already left,

"Mehek! Come get dress up we are going out." Esha excitedly told her.

"Out but where?" Mehek who was sitting by the window put her book down and looked at Esha.

"It's my friend's birthday today so we are going to her birthday party."

"Esha please no," thinking of a party already made her exhausted, Esha tried to convince her but she made excuse about jet lag and not feeling well,

Everyone was busy with something only she was left alone in the lawn not that she is complaining, she liked her own company more then anyone else.

Imad who was returning from his work saw a figure on the swing, he went to her but she didn't acknowledge him,

He cleared his throat to gain her attention and he successfully got it,

Mehek who was to engaged in her book look up for second and again looked down but realized who she was in front of her. Nervously she dropped her book and got up, that's the first time she is seeing him so close (it's not like she is here for ages it's been only one day) dressed in his uniform he was looking handsome, Mehek always liked boys in police uniform, in fact she loves those Bollywood movies where hero plays the role of police officer

"A head full of ghosts." He bent down and picked the book,

"What are you doing in your studies?" Reading the book title he asked her

"I'm graduate in BSC." she mumbled without meeting his eyes

"Graduate in science still believes in ghost?" amusingly he asked, he wasn't referring to the book but the incident that happened last night

"I.... I actually....... I'm sorry." It was hard for her to get those words on her lips but she did.

"Imad," he wanted to say 'its okay' but then a feminine voice come from behind. That was their paternal aunt's daughter Nigaar.

"And you must be Mehek. I'm Nigaar" she come forward and shake hand with Mehek,

"Are we gonna stand here all day?" When none make a move to go inside Nigaar asked

"No actually I've to go," Imad said and give Mehek her book back
