The Tales of love- I

24.2:"Barriers".

"You are his sister?". She asked confused

"Hanifa, I am his sister". Hanifa replied chuckling

"That's unfortunate". Hajar mumble

"Don't even talk to her she will make you mental like her". Momim said holding his sister's hand

"The only mental here is you". Hajar said

"You know you shouldn't be talking to me like that". He said

"You shouldn't be behaving like this either". She replied

"I am your boss". He argued

"Forcefully and unfortunately". She replied shrugging

Hanifa chuckle stopping their bickering.

"How are you his sister of all people?". Hajar asked

"Excuse me, she should be my sister of all people". He said

"I ask myself that every day". Hanifa replied dramatically

"Don't worry. Every time he annoys you call me and we will murder him". Hajar said

"You are planning my murder?". Momim asked shocked

Hajar raises her eyebrows, "You have no idea how many times in a day I think about all the ways I can kill you like for example I am thinking if I were to stumble you and you fall down from the building would it be too suspicious?".

His eyes widen as he gulps, "You wouldn't do that".

She shrugged, "Don't test me then".

"Let's go, Hanifa before she does anything". He said pulling Hanifa with him

Hanifa chuckle waving to Hajar before walking inside the office.

"Where would you find that one?". Hanifa asked curiously

"Don't ask". He said brushing his hair back

"I like her". Hanifa said happily

"Please don't". He said sighing, "That woman drives me insane".

"That is the reason I like her. Also, mom is adamant on marrying you. See you I am stealing your assistant for a coffee". Hanifa said running out of the office

2 months later:

"You could have asked". He said groaning

"Well, you should have told me". She said crossing her arms on her chest

"I am leaving. My head hurts talking to you". He said

"And my-". She started

She heard her phone ringing frowning she takes the phone out watching as the call ended from the unknown number but she has a text.

She opens the message, "I am here"

Her heart stopped.

"You were saying?". He said watching her as the phone drops from her hand and her face completely pale," Hajar?".

She didn't reply.

He looks at her concerned moving closer to stand in front of her, "Hajar".

Her eyes turn to look at him in confusion as her mind remains blank.

"Huh?". She asked, "I-I have to leave early it's an emergency".

"Is your mother ok?". He asked following her as she collects her things but she didn't reply either, "Is she ok?".
