They came out from the mall, " Let's go I'll can drop you"

" No need (Rahil refused instantly) our routs are different, you guys go ahead we'll be back on our own"

" Ok then, take care" They greeted each other and took there leave.

"My Bag" Rida screamed.

"Did you lost it" Rahil scolded

"No no I think I've left it on the café where we first met".

Tahir arrived to his house along with Ramia, he bring her suitcase out and noticed the bag pack is missing.

"Where is the other bag?" He asked her

"Bag..I have(she stuttered a bit)..have thrown it " she said with utmost confidence.

"Throw…throw it..why?" he asked with hell surprise

"Just..it was a bit heavy"

"So you throw it! (she nodded her head) just like that!"

"yeah" she replied calmly with too much innocence in her eyes.

"It was a branded one!"

"No problem, I do that often" she leave to the calling bell.

"Billionaire jerk" he murmured and followed her behind.

Door opened even before her knocking. A lady in her 30s appeared on the door.

"Api!" Tahir called out from behind

"Surprise"

"I knew it, how could this possible, It's eid and you are missing from the family reunion" she reached out her hand to fake a slap while he dodged. Ramia was standing there silently while the lady approached her, "So you are the guest Ma was talking about?" Ramia nodded her head awkwardly

"I'm his elder sister Faria, come on in" They greeted each other & entered but the view inside the house behold her eyes. There were almost 15-20 people in the living room. All of them were looking at her with various emotions.

"Exit door is still open" Tahir whispered to her with a smirk. She instantly about 'maybe he is a decent person', no way once a jerk always a jerk.

"You come, I was waiting for so long " Taseefa entered to the living room with a pleasant smile.

"Go freshen up first then I'll introduce you with our family" she agreed and get into the guest room.

Ramia stepped out from the room...carefully....silently "Your guest is here, Ma" Tahir almost announced from behind making her jump in shock. Taseefa lovingly bring her to living room where others were present, all of them were gawking at her with so much curiosity in there eyes, it was like she is on stage for her drama performance and all of them were her audience. Tahir silently took a sit on a corner and engulfed himself in his laptop little did she know he was always watching her.

"She is our guest from Delhi, that hospital is building by her company, she have never seen a village festival before so I invited her" as Ramia requested before to not reveal her identity to anyone than family her aunty managed that part smartly. All the curiosity of there eyes calmed a little.

"They are our neighbors (she directed toward 6 mid aged women who were sitting comfortably ) and they are Tahir's cousin (she directed to 4 young people, they excitedly waved at her while she greeted with a smile) and she is my daughter you have already meted her" one by one she introduced with Tahir's uncle, aunty Fuppi(father's sister) , Faria's husband and his 1.5 years old niece Jannat. She felt little left out around so many people, she took a sit around a corner that g**g of 4 young people were seemed excited to talk with her but they have gone with some work. Taseefa and her daughter is in the kitchen while she heard some gossip of those neighbors.

"Do you think she is only a guest? Tahir also works in Delhi, I'm sure there is something between these two" like the ground beneath her feet just slipped...she and him no way, she looked at Tahir who also have same expression.

"No no, my sister-in-law said she met her first in the construction site" Tahir's Fuppi said

"Really, Is she married?"

"I don't think so"

"Then can you give me some information about her, she will be perfect for my son"

"Your son! look at her, a beauty on top of that she works in such big city...a high profile girl in marriage market... and your son!. hah in your dreams" the other lady replied.

"I think she will be perfect for my son, he is most competent among all your sons" one of the lady said. Ramia feels like by mistake she have entered into a marriage battle field where instead of grooms their mothers fights for rights. Her anger fueled up when she caught Tahir giggling silently hearing all this.

"Wait wait, seems like you all have forgotten about my nephew , he is most competent in this village and handsome too. If we are talking about marriage he will defiantly win" Tahir's Fuppi made her point clear while Tahir and Ramia silently watched all this.

All the neighbors have left uncle, aunty and fuppi also left now its youngsters time. All of them were sitting round and round Ramia on main focus, all of them were gawking at her without any word she was feeling hell awkward.

"I mean you are really the queen Maeen Ramia" That girl have asked that question 10 times till now.

"Well, I'm not a queen but a businessman"

"You are a queen for us"

"Then let us introduce properly. I'm Fahad Tahir bhai's cousin-uncle's son and I'm an engineering student. My..." the other boy cut in between.

"I'm Farhan his (directed to Fahad) younger brother and I'm in senior high school"

"I'm Mahi I'm about to go in senior high" the girl introduced herself.

"I'm Daniyaal aka Dan (the little one took out his sunglass and put it on) I'm a future superstar" Ramia smiled on his antics.

"Ms Ramia I hope you are not feeling uncomfortable or are you tired?" Faria asked with concern, Ramia can feel she is her aunty's daughter, they share some facial structure too.

"No No, I'm ok and no need to be formal you can call me by name I'm younger than you" she asked politely.

"Then we'll call you api(older sister)" Dan asked excitedly while Ramia agreed.

"Api I have great interest in gamming one day I'll work in your company" Farhan said excitedly.

"You can start your own company too" Ramia replied.

"See I told you all I have all the abilities to be a boss, after all I'm the talented among you all" he patted his shoulders.

"Hello junior your master is here and if we are talking about more intelligent one than we all know Tahir bhai(brother) will win" Fahad hold his brother and praised Tahir. Tahir smiled on his comment. Fahad have always admired him there were a 6 years age gap between them but their relation is more like best friends they can praise each other on the same time can curse too.

"So what despite being successful he still don't have a girlfriend "

"Why he need a girlfriend while he already have a fiancée"
