It was a windy day in Rawalpindi and i was in my school attending classes and doing my kid things. Around 2 i used to come home. Grandma was as-usual in the kitchen preparing food for me. I hugged her from the back but she got scared and throw a slipper towards me. I stared running trying to avoid her target. My mum came downstairs in a rush after hearing my scream. My Lord you should look at the state she came downstairs not gonna lie it was funny though. As it was July so duh “summers”!!! It was fucking hot and I was thirsty as hell. So my Grandma made “Red sharbat” its a traditional drink in Asian countries especially in pakistan. Not gonna lie that drink really refreshed me and i went upstairs to my room dropped my bag and head straight for the shower. Man in hot days like today shower really helpe me to relax. In evening i was doing my homework just that time dad came in my room and told me that i had an aunt and they are going to visit us lot 10th of next month. God firstly i was shocked, i had an aunt all these years and i never knew. Secondly i was excited cause all my cousins were coming tho so we’ll spend time together and have some fun. I started to count days and finally that day came. It was understood the amount of excitement i had i went to receive them with my dad. There i met him for the first time along with the rest of the family. That time i only greeted him as my cousin brother but i never knew what the future holds. Eventually we became best friends cause duh he was only a year older than me so technically we were age fellows. Our bond eventually grew stronger and that day came when them lot went back. All of us lot went back to our normal lives how it was used to like dad on his job, mum on house duty me in school along with my sisters just with one difference we cousins used to face time each other all the time. So basically we were connected to each other 24/7. Days went and it was EID and all the family members came to my house. Like my house was the centre of all our family as in everyone used to come and we had a small family dinner cause my aunt live 6 hours away from us lot so it was difficult for her to visit off and on so she used to visit on special occasions like EID( muslim traditional festival) or maybe birthdays etc etc. So along with everyone my aunt with her family came as-well. Again i was in seven sky. I actually never knew why i always go over the heads whenever i see him. In my heart i always knew he was my cousin brother but i don’t know for me i was special seeing him in person. Like don’t get me wrong i was happy for the rest of them as-well but he had a special place. He a sister named laila and i had a great bond with her. She was my crime in partner and i used to share everything with her. So Yh i was with Laila the whole time but my eyes was on him and his on mine. I don’t know but we share a strange bond which was mysterious.
