Upside Down

Danial's POV

"They are international clients and most predominantly I'm trusting you with this, Danial." My dad repeated the same sentence for 100th times now.

"Hey, calm down dad, you know if you worry so much, it might affect your BP," I said while making him sit and handing him a glass of water.

"You'll handle it right?" He asked again hesitantly.

"I'll and I won't let you down, trust me." I ensured him and he finally looked at me and smiled.

"You're the best son anyone can have." He proudly said, while my phone was constantly vibrating in my pocket.

Finally, dad left the office, leaving me to handle the rest of the day as his friend from U.S.A is coming to ask for my younger sister Ridah's hand for his son.

I quickly took my phone out of my pocket and I'm dead.

15 missed calls and 30 messages all this from my one and only girlfriend Samara.

First I opened the messages all this started from 10:00 am.

Good morning. 💕

Remember it's our 3 years and 2 months anniversary?

Where are you?

Why are you not replying?

Baby?

Have I done something wrong?

Are you ignoring me?

With whom are you?

Is it a girl?

Fine, don't reply.

I'll never talk to you again.

Okay sorry didn't mean that.

Come on baby reply.

Alright bye.

It's our official break up.

"Goodness!" I mumbled while breathing out, I was just busy.

I quickly dialled her number but she wasn't answering the call.

I kept on calling but she wasn't answering.

I texted her.

I'm sorry, sweetheart, I was busy as my dad was explaining few things to me, I swear.

Finally, my phone went off and I quickly answered my phone.

"I'm sorry, am I the horrible person in the world?" She asked in a baby voice.

"Of course not. My love," I said while smiling, she is nothing but a little baby.

"Fine then, let's meet for lunch." She said excitedly.

"I would like to sweetheart, but can't I've to cover one of my dad's meeting with foreign clients," I explained.

"You always do that, there must be someone else, you don't love me." She started with her cries.

"Sir they are here." Dad's assistant said and I started to rush.

"Babe I'll ring you later," I said and I didn't like that but I had to hang up on her face.

"Good morning everyone," I said as soon as I reached the meeting room while everyone was looking at me which made me nervous.

'You don't panic when you're in the meeting room, you just face it.'

My dad's wise words kept on roaming around my head as even my dad knows that meeting is one of my phobias.

They explained me everything, and I did everything my father asked me to do, I won't let him down.

"We are really pleased to have you, your works are as keen as your father's," one of the client said while shaking my hand.

After few business talks, we finally signed the contract and the deal was officially made around 3 pm.

It was one hell of a big meeting, I wonder how my dad manages to go through all of them.

There was only 10 minutes of lunch break in between and then back to being serious.

After the meeting, I tried to call my love so many times but she didn't answer.

I think I should go and meet her directly and celebrate my first ever successful meeting.

I drove to her house, I'm sure at the moment no one is there as her parents come home very late.

I rang the calling bell and patiently waited for her to open the door.

"Coming." Her melodic voice said from the other side of the door while I can hear footsteps approaching this way.

"I don't need that." She said while leaning against the door and folding her arms against her chest.

"I thought flower will cover the apology," I said while almost covering my face with the massive bouquet of roses.

"You hanged up on our anniversary." She said while pouting.

"Anniversary?" I asked confusedly.

"It's our 3 years 2 months anniversary." She said and threw the flowers.

"Sweetheart who celebrates 3 years 2 months, isn't that suppose to be a yearly thing?" I asked while caressing her hair.

"I don't care." She said.

"Okay baby happy anniversary and I love you," I said while kissing her cheek.

"Why showering so much love?" She asked suspiciously and I smiled at her.

"It's because I don't want my baby to be upset," I said while she hugged me tightly.

"I love you so much." She said while grinning.

"So do I," I said while patting her head.

Suddenly my phone went off and I quickly answered my phone.

"Yes dad," I said.

"Congratulations my son." He proudly said as I texted him that the meeting was a success.

"Thanks, dad," I replied.

"Okay son, come home quickly, they are here." He said he sounds quite excited.

"You've to go?" She asked sadly.

"Yes, baby but I'll call you tonight," I said while kissing her forehead and then drove straight home.

As soon as I was about to enter, a lady slipped on our slippery tiles perhaps her shoes are wrong.

I quickly grabbed her by holding her waist and she closed her eyes as she was really scared.

She is really beautiful, she has a very innocent face and she has dark shiny black hair, which suits her.

"I'm so sorry." She said while trying to get up and I helped her. Finally, our eyes met it was an unknown feeling to me.

Our eye contact was bit weird but it's like we've some bond.

"That was a bit embarrassing entry, anyways this is my daughter Ayesha." An elderly looking man said while laughing with my dad.

He must be Zubair's father.

"Dad." The woman called Ayesha almost warned her dad while blushing a bit, even the blush suits her.

Ayesha so her name is Ayesha.

"And that's my son Danial." My dad said proudly.

"Daniel, remember I'm your Uncle Minaj, you and Ayesha used to play together when you guys were little." He said.

Ah! Now I remember she was Uncle Minaj's daughter. I thought her father was someone else.

"Oh yes uncle I do," as soon as I said that the Ayesha blushed while putting her beautiful hair behind her ears.

What is wrong with me?

Why I'm thinking like this about another woman?
