It's been 12 years since, I'm, been in London, My dream got fulfilled, And I fulfilled my father's wish also, He, wanted me to become a successful businessman. I have become.  I own 3/4 of the lavish hotels here, other than that, I have a management company too, I have achieved this goal on my own without any help from my family, they wanted to help me but I refused And I'm happy that I made my parents proud

But having Everything I'm not fully happy, I Miss my family, my Brothers, And her! I don't even know how's She doing I just know that she is in Australia. I hope she is happy, I want to meet her but I'm not able to face her I know she must be hating me right now.

When I decided to come here, I know she was not happy but for me, She showed she is happy. she let me go And I promised her that I will be in touch with her, I did for some time but after that, I got busy really busy, and she still used to send me emails, I failed the exam and dad got to know about this, And I saw disappointment on his face,  when his friend's colleagues, talked about their respective child when they achieved it,  which I didn't, he didn't say anything to me, he didn't even talk to me properly after that.

Then forgetting about, Every stuff I studied harder to make him proud and today I'm here but I do have regret too. There is a famous quote, that you have to lose something to achieve something!

I have got Everything Still, I felt something is Missing my body and brain is here but my heart is not here.

"Zavi, Come out dude" I heard the voice of my best friend Kaif Ahmed, from outside, he is a 

good looking guy with a great personality, he's a good boy type, an understanding, and Mature Guy, And he has a beautiful wife, And she's the sweetest girl in our group we were 5 in Group, but as we got graduated we become apart due to our different works. But we are still in touch we meet every weekend

So today is Sunday so we are meeting.

"Zavi Are you listening?" He yelled again, shaking my head, I set my black/brown hair And walked out shirtless only wearing blue jeans.

"What happened? Did your wife run away or what?" I asked him sarcastically, wearing a white buttoned shirt. "Very Funny that's not happening ever. She truly loves me" He answered innocently rolling his eyes, but a proud smile made its way to his face.

"Yeah! Loverboy" I responded to him back with a Smile he made whatever face, "Aunty is calling you continuously, didn't you hear your phone ringing," he informed me forwarding my phone to me, There were 5 missed calls 3 from Mom 2 from dad. I frowned and got concerned. I looked at the time it was 8 pm here so in Dubai it must be 11 pm, they must be awake so I called them.

"Zaviyaar why weren't you picking up your phone?, do you know how worried I was? Where were you?" I heard this as soon she answered, the call I smiled in worry.

"Mama relax I'm fine, but why have you and dad have called so many times is everything okay over there ?" I asked worriedly Sitting on the bed. Kaif signaled to me that he is waiting outside. I nodded my head.

"Yes everything is Fine, Can't I call my son " She complained.

"Of course, you can, but we just talked some hours ago Mom" I answered as a chuckle escaped from my mouth. "Actually, Saad is getting married," She told me and I got surprised, by the news.

"What? How? When? Who is the girl and when did it happen?' I bombarded her with my questions. And I heard laughing sounds behind her. I guess everyone is sitting together.

"In a month, You will get to know everything if you will come here! I want you to come and attend his wedding and all the functions understood." Mom Ordered in a bossy tone making me laugh.

"You are coming right?" She asked again hopefully as I didn't answer I sighed "Mom I will come! How can I not, it's my brother's wedding I will come soon" I answered her with a smile lingering on my face. 

"If you wouldn't have come. I would have killed you coming there "I heard Saad's voice from back, "Mom put the phone on speaker," I told her and then I replied to him "Yeah that's why I'm coming, I'm so scared of you Saad " I sarcastically responded.  "Yeah I know that just Come soon bro," He replied to me loudly.

"Erm...is... I stopped in between I wanted to ask about Afreen but I stopped myself.

"Ahh... Btw where is my little brother" I asked teasingly not listening to his voice "He's right here" Mom replied from another side.

"Kabir why aren't you talking to him," " I don't want to talk to him Mom" I heard his angry voice. I chuckled at my cute brother. "It's okay Mom! if he doesn't want to talk, just tell him that I miss him And I love him" I said with a genuine Smile.

"Okay. Everyone Bye I gotta go, See you guys soon" I Hung up the call bidding bye to them, and put my phone inside my jeans pocket. And I realized that I'm Missing this! My Family, I think it's time for me to go back. grabbing a black jacket in my hand and wearing white sneakers I strode outside.

"What took you so long?," Zain Abdullah, my friend asked annoyed. He is a big flirt. A playboy. He doesn't believe in relationships, since his first relationship ended badly, after that he becomes like that, but he has never crossed the line with any girl. He's the owner of Some very famous restaurants, and he's handling his dad's business in other words, he is a Richie rich.

"Dude your so-called lover is waiting for you for so long," He taunted,  a bit offended throwing his arms in the air. "Why the hell she's coming with us, I thought we are doing just guys gathering," I asked him frustrated. "Come on Zaviyaar she's our friend. And I thought you liked her " Kaif the good boy spoke I give him a glare.

"Excuse me I don't, I just like her as a friend she likes me, And it's all because of this loser," I replied slapping Zain's back, hard he hissed.

"I have told her zillion times that I'm not interested. but she had to fall for me, what should do, if I'm so handsome" I told them raising my invisible collars and then ruffling my hair they rolled their eyes at me.

"Anyway let's go," I ordered them wearing my shades. We all three walked out.

"Btw are you seriously Straight?" Zain asked teasingly looking at me from top to bottom

Seriously?" I give him a deathly glare at his idiotic question.

"As you haven't dated any girl till now! Forget dating you don't even look at girls. And we haven't seen you and haram romancing. You haven't even touched her other than a hug" He asked frowning his brows, shrugging his shoulders.

"I'm not interested in your ex-girlfriend and she is not my girlfriend, why will I do romance with her " I Replied annoyingly glaring at him. "But you know what" I whispered and moved closer to him touching his arm. "What the hell are you trying to do bro" He exclaimed in horror moving back, and I sniggered. Even Kaif laughed and he went to his wife Fariyal a very good friend to us. I took off the key to his bike from his pocket swapping it with my car keys.

"Don't worry, I'm straight Bro. I'm driving your bike please help your Ex-girlfriend " I winked at him and walked away. "Zaviyaar You jerk" He yelled at my back, I just waved him bye. I looked at Haram she was standing in front of my car.

Although she's a very sweet person, And beautiful too she's so annoying sometimes, And I'm not interested in any girl here. Just for once, I felt attracted to a girl, a year back. I was at the airport for some work. And I saw some guys were trying to block her way. so I just went there to help her. I just saw her beautiful brown eyes. And her long beautiful hair which was tied in a ponytail, I didn't see her face but still, I felt attracted to her I don't know why, Even her eyes felt familiar to me, That was it.

Whenever I see any girl I just think of Afreen, I even don't know why I just feel bad if I think of dating someone else. That is why I haven't dated anyone. Haram is in our group she used to be Zain's girlfriend but they broke up! Zain broke up with her suddenly without any reason but Haram was not ready to break, their 2 years Relationship, So Zain lied to her about that, I also like her that's why he is breaking up he doesn't want any fight between us. That idiot looser guy, After that, when she saw Zain is dating someone else, she thought to do the same, so she approached me and asked me to help her to make Zain jealous, As she said Zain loved her, so as a friend, I agreed to help her but after some weeks she confessed that she's Falling for me.

I was shocked for a moment but then I told her that it was all fake and I don't have any feelings for her. then she informed me what Zain told her. I cleared her misunderstanding, but she didn't stop. She told me she liked me and she will wait for me, I didn't know what to do I can't control anyone's feelings so I just start making distance, But she didn't care at all, she is still trying hard, I sometimes feel bad for her as she's is my friend too.

"Sorry Zain is driving my car you can come with him," I told her without looking at her. "I will come with you on the bike," She replied coming closer to me, I moved back instantly getting uncomfortable with the closeness.

"Haram please don't make a scene here! Even you know I'm not interested in you so don't behave like a clingy girlfriend. I'm your friend, not your boyfriend" I told her politely controlling my anger, and zoomed out from their sitting on the bike.

As soon we reached the cafe, Haram come toward me and held my arm, and walked inside with me making me roll my eye at her behavior, I removed her hand and showed her eyes to stop it.

"Stop it Zavi, why are you making me feel worse, fine I have feelings for you, but what should I do I'm trying my best so you don't get uncomfortable, And I'm your friend also we used to be like this you are so comfortable with Fari, we are friends too, Zaviyaar,  " She let out sounding hurt. And walked from there making me feel guilty.

"What do I do" I Sighed running my hand through my hair, frustrated. "Chill Relax" Kaif Rubbed my arm to calm me down.

"Guys I'm going back to Islamabad " I Announced as soon we got comfortable on chairs. "What, why, When," Kaif, Zain, And Fariyal , asked all together making me chuckle. "My cousin is getting married. So that's why I'm thinking to stay there for a month or so, I miss my Family guys" I told them taking a sip of my black coffee.

"Can't we come with you? Even we will enjoy the wedding" Fariyal asked getting a bit excited and looked at me hopefully, blinking her eyes. "Yeah, even I can meet the new girls. I'm bored of these girls" Kaif let out pointing at Fariyal and Haram "Even we are bored looking at your ugly face" Haram answered glaring at him, Zain glared at her.

"Stop behaving like a kid guys let Zavi speak," Kaif chided glaring at everyone. "So what do you think about us Coming with you," Kaif asked looking at me for approval. "Sounds like a plan" I Replied Smirking at them the boys jumped in happiness.

"So when are we going," Fariyal exclaimed getting over Excited. "Day after tomorrow, I have to handle somethings here first" I answered with a smile,  Everyone looked at Haram she was not saying anything

"Don't you wanna Come with us?" Kaif asked her.  "If I will say yes, then he will think I'm being a clingy girlfriend" She Replied sarcastically with a taunt, that I know was for me.

"Okay, fine I'm sorry come with us my friend" I apologized, sincerely holding her hand. "Yeah, whatever" She shrugged her shoulders controlling her smile I left her hand as she side-hugged me. And Fariyal hugged me from another side. After doing some fun we went to our places. The day ended very Soon.

I have set my schedule. I have a few meetings with Foreigners. I can do it from Islamabad too, Also it was morning, and everyone gathered at my place we were ready to go, wearing black jeans and a black button shirt I wore a mask and cap, I just like it that way, a lot of people know me, I just don't want any crowd on the airport.

Finally, I'm heading back home.
