CHAPTER 4

                                    

                                          
I was so scared, my heart was pounding like a drum in my chest, I was breathing heavily, Allah please help me!
                          
All of a sudden I heard a 'duck' sound, I turned to see what it was, my eyes widened when I saw that,
                          
A boy who holds my hand was lying on a ground struggling to get up, blood was bleeding from his head,I looked up and saw Ariz standing there holding a heavy rod in his hand and glaring  boy, it looks like as he's going to kill him right away.
                          
Ariz shot his head towards me,"go Gashiya, go and sit in the car",he ordered, everything happened all of a sudden that no one understands it, they all look so shocked,when they get their senses back,they start coming towards Ariz, I ran and stand beside him,"Gashiya you didn't heard that?!, Go and sit into the car, right now",he snapped,I saw him flaring up with rage,I quickly start moving towards the car which was parked near, I opened the car door and slide into it, I haven't seen Ariz this angry in my whole life,"Ariz come back,there is no use in fighting with them",I called him peaking my head out of the window, but he ignored me,oh God how Ariz is going to fight with those boys.
                          
A boy try to punch Ariz on his jaw but he stopped that boy by grabbing his hand,he did something which I didn't understand first but the result made my mouth drop opened,he broke his hand,how he did that?,the other two boys also tried to attack on him but Ariz slammed both boys heads together making them fall a ground, four down one to go, I shrugged the stupid thought of, this is not an action movie, this is real life, in every film the hero from no where came and fight with much stronger men then him ,but he fights although he is not trained or anything,and that's a movie they can show as anything, but Ariz the way he broke the boy's hand and the way he is fighting making me suspect him, how he knows to fight this good?,he knocked the last guy on the ground, with that he wiped the dirt off his coat and came towards the car,he glanced one last time at them and slide into the car.
                          
He started driving a car, there was a long silence between us,no one knows what to say so we both kept quiet, I finally break the silence"are you okay?",I asked him in a low voice, looking out of the window,"ya and...you?",he asked slowly,"fine",I said nodding,still looking out of the window," Gashiya umm-I am really sorry, whatever happened that was all my fault, I was acting like a jerk, I shouldn't leave you there all alone, you are my responsibility, well... sorry again",he says trying to clear himself in front of me,"don't be sorry",I said diverting my gaze towards him,"that's not your fault,the fault is all mine,I have done a big mistake, that was my mistake that I didn't get ready on time, that was my fault that I let you drive,my fault that I walked out of the car, EVERY THING WAS MY FAULT",I snapped at him,he looked down sighing,"Gashiya please don't,I know everything I did was wrong, I used to annoy you,I have played a lot pranks on you, but this was the last,I promise Gashiya I will never do such things again",he says in a low voice,"oh! Thank you so much Mr Ariz",I said through gritted teeth,"stop it Gashiya, you are overreacting now",Ariz said,"wow!, You can do anything,either it could be a prank call late at night or leaving me alone in that lonely place, every thing is right for you and if I say a word against it then I am overreacting, I must say you are never gonna st-","enough Gashiya enough, I know that was my mistake and I already said sorry for tha-","sorry?, you know what Ariz one day your those stupid pranks are going to take my life,then keep saying sorry to yourself", I completed the sentence,"OK fine, from today we both are going to stop throwing knifes on each other I mean... stop playing pranks on each other, not going to yell at each other and n-","not going talk much and act like strangers",I said,"that's too much Gashiya, seriously!,'acting like strangers'", said Ariz mimicking my voice,"ha-ha very funny",I said Rolling my eyes,he shook his head smiling, I smiled back.
                          
12:00 am wow!, We both manage to get there at 12:00 am, everyone was asking that why we were late, I leave Ariz to answer them and sit beside Nadir,"what he did this time ?", asked Nadir amused,"don't tell me that you don't know anything",I said making a face,"no I really don't know,tell me what he did",Nadir asked like a two-year-old kid,I sighed rolling my eyes,"this time he crossed all the limits",I said through gritted teeth,"really", Nadir rose an eyebrow,"he left me alone in the middle of nowhere",I said angrily,"oh how much I wanted to do that in my whole life",Nadir murmured, I punched him on his arm hard,"aah!" He exclaimed and get everyone's attention,"what happened Nadir ", dado asked with concern, I start looking down at my phone, like I don't know anything,I don't want dado to scold me,"nothing dado, I just saw a cat",Nadir covered up,wow! He took my side nice brother!!,"oh God Nadir, grow up, you are still afraid of cats, look at your cousin, learn something from him, look how he saved Gashiya", said mama, I looked at Ariz wide eyed who was also looking at me,he told them everything! How could he?, he just shrugged and look away taking a bite of his dinner,I glanced at him one last time and got up from my seat to take my dinner from the buffet.
