𝜗𝜚⋆₊˚HAMDAN'S POV :

She's my possession, my obsession, my doll, but she needs to act like one. She should be taught how to not get on my nerves.

Today I freaking lost it when she suddenly disappeared from the principal's office, dreadful thoughts started enveloping me, and that's when I ran throughout the whole campus searching for her.

They say when you love something, you take care of it and treasure it, but I don't want to treasure Rania Syed with me.

I want to cage her and tie her wings with mine.

My love was like the ray of sunshine and the soft romantic hearts and balloons, but she changed something in me.

Now it's like the cold blood that runs in a scared body, it's like the nights when the moon is hidden in the clouds and like the darkness that envelops everything in the storm.

After my last math class, it's time to head home, I walk towards the parking area.

I see Rania with a man, maybe I've seen him here at our uni as a teacher, but I'm not really sure.

Rania seemed sad and down the whole day as I remember, but now she's smiling with him as if she's forgotten all her worries.

A smile she never shows to me.

Something stirred inside me as my eyes couldn't detach themselves from Rania, and my legs made their way towards her and the other person standing with her, near the car as if waiting for someone.

"don't smile at him" i affirmed out as I reached towards them, my hands stuffed inside my pocket, while the guy leaning on his car gazed at me with furrowed brows as well as rania who was standing right in front of him staring at me blankly.

" huh?" her lips formed a thin line.

" don't smile at him, I'm not liking it. At all." I confessed boringly yet calmly as I could see rania scowl.

" I don't like your whole existence but did I complain? No! right ?" she crossed her arms around her chest and shot a glare at me.

She looks so fuckable when she's being feisty.

" who's he?" I asked while giving a side eye to the person beside.

"my grandpa" she sarcastically replied.

The man was too grumpy to even reply on Rania's behalf, and thankfully, he didn't barge in, otherwise, it wouldn't be nice if I break his face.

"Listen, Hayati, I ain't in the mood for your sass. Keep your claws in, or you might just get scratched. Now, back to the grandpa , I don't want any funny business with him. You better keep your distance, and he better do the same. Got it?" I declared whilst warning.

"who are you to tell me what to do?" she fought back fiercely making my jaw tightened.

" you are coming home with me" i declared while garbing her wrist forcefully and was about to snatch her away from here when some short yet bold girl pulled back rania from me.

" what's your deal dude? Aren't you the same bastard who's been on her back since day 1? Now you can't do anything to her, not on my watch tho" she spoke while shielding my property from myself as my jaw ticked.

"Listen up, girl, speak when you're spoken to, not when you feel like flapping your gums. Got it?" I rudely spat.

"You don't get to disrespect her!" The guy who had been silently watching the drama finally got the green light to speak.

"Sure! I don't even know who she is. I'm just here to take what's mine, home. So, excuse me," I calmly state as I grab Rania's wrist again.

"I'm not anyone's, especially not of a psycho who has lost his mind. And stop trying to rule over me because I'm literally going to report you," she said, shooting me a piercing glare that only made me laugh.

She's funny.

Her female friend walked over and whispered something to Rania, who nodded.

"It's all fun and games for you to annoy the fuck out of me, Hamdan, but it's really getting to me. Get out of my way and my life. Your presence has drained me," she said as she jerked my grip away, then turned around and dashed into a car with her friends.

I smirked, knowing what was going to happen next. I hopped in my car and trailed theirs.

They stopped at a mall, and so did I.

Ruffling my messy hair, I strolled through the gate, following the two rascals and my fairy.

They entered, and as I followed, Rania glanced back as if she sensed someone watching them, but I quickly hid myself.

They headed to a bookstore first, and so did I.

Her irritating friend was browsing novels while Rania was selecting books on moving on. Little did she know, she didn't need any book to move on but me.

At the next stop, the troublemakers and my fairy hopped into the photo booth.

My eyes were locked on Rania, and I could see her smile. She looked even more stunning with that smile. I felt the urge to kiss her smile and conceal it from the world because only I should see it. It's tragic how I'm the one she doesn't want to smile at.

I noticed them wearing hair bands and then they started taking pictures. Rania was really close to that guy—Ayaan. She was hugging his arm, and so was the other girl—Faheema.

In one pose, both girls hugged his arms, which made my blood boil because nobody gets to touch Rania, but here in this case she herself was hugging someone.

In the next pose, he was ruffling their hair like, seriously? He can't touch something that's mine. He can go do whatever with the other girl for all I care. But even his eyes better watch out before looking at Rania.

Their poses are so cringey and infuriating.

I wonder how I'll break the arm that Rania hugged, the hand that ruffled her hair, and not to forget his face that smiled at her.

They walked out of the photo booth as I was about to follow them when my phone buzzed with notification.

Mehran : "Hey Rascals what's up !"

Arsalaan : "I'm stuck playing hide and seek with Ashan, my annoying son. Right now, I'm crammed inside the closet, struggling to breathe."

Mehran : "Bahaha. What about you, Hamdan?"

Me : "Just casually keeping an eye on Rayyan's sister, who's having a blast at the mall with her creepy friends."

Arsalaan : "They're not creepy, you are."

Me : "When did we break up, Arsal?"

Mehran : "Who's 'we'?"

Me : "The trio of us, me, you, and Arsal."

Arsalaan : "Eww, what?"

Me : "Then why are you always against me ever since I moved to New York?! eye roll emoji"

Mehran : "Maybe he's jealous that your attention is now on Rayyan's sister."

Me : "Why don't you guys just fuck off?"

Mehran : "Hope you recover soon, bachelor."

Hamdan Waseem has left the chat

If you want to ruin your already ruined mood you must definitely be friends with this bastards.

I stuffed my phone inside my pocket and gazed every where but rania and her friends where nowhere to be found.

I took a stroll on the second floor and spotted Faheema chilling with a crew, chowing down at the buffet for who knows what reason.

On the flip side, Ayaan was on a call, sounding all grumpy. But Rania was nowhere to be seen.

Then, my gaze drifted to the food court where only sweets are up for grabs. She was darting around, questioning the stall worker like she's on a mission.

Her gorgeous brunette locks flowing as she hustled, her rosy lips forming an adorable pout, tapping her chin thoughtfully as if pondering something.

Her eyes sparkling, lashes fluttering, and she snapped her fingers cutely, like a light bulb went off in her head.

I couldn't help but notice every little thing about her, and damn, she's so fucking adorable, so darn delicate— breakable.

I strolled over to her, who perched at the churro stall, indulging in those crispy churros dipped in velvety chocolate syrup.

The syrup was trailing down the corner of her lips. As she was eating absentmindedly, I playfully remarked, "Didn't think you'd be this messy, Hayati."

With a swift move, I wiped the chocolate from the corner of her lips with my thumb and  sucked it off, causing her to shoot me a startled glance.

" what the fuck?" She flinched in astonishment.

" missed me, Hayati?" I leaned on the stall where she was standing.

" I don't have any time for that shit!" She retorted.

i didn't reply but just stared at her face slowly forming a scowl.

"so mr clingy leech decided to follow me here as well" she crossed her arms in annoyance.

" watch your mouth, or I'll stuff my cock inside of it" I warned at her sass as she was taken aback.

I took a step back as she recoiled, her face drained of color, a smirk playing on my lips. She spun around and walked away from her admirer— stalker aka me.

Entering the ladies restroom, I secured the door behind me. Rania, at the washbasin, froze as her eyes met mine in the mirror.

I stood right behind her. She paled like a ghost at the sight. "How dare you?" she exclaimed, turning to face me, fear evident in her eyes.

" I dare to!" I smirked as I walked towards her.

She was trapped, her back against the cold washbasin stone, and me standing in front, blocking her escape.

"Tell me, how should I punish you and ensure you learn the art of speaking to me, the man who loves you," I demanded, lifting her chin as she met my gaze fiercely, a hint of fear flickering in her eyes.

Our bodies pressed together, eyes locked in a fiery exchange. Her captivating grey eyes shimmered with anger, like a cat ready to claw until I bled.

The scent of her intoxicating lily perfume filled my lungs, leaving me yearning for more.

My focus lingered on her soft, pink lips, wanting to capture and meld them with mine, to taste them once more and always.

"I'm going to report you, Hamdan Waseem," she spat at me with complete confidence and rage as I gripped her chin even more tightly, forcing her to meet my gaze.

She wasn't short by any means; it's just that I'm taller and could easily swallow her.

"Report to whom, sweetheart?" I gently tucked a stray strand of her hair behind her ear, my eyes studying her face and its soft yet striking features, her body trembled against mine.

" you don't need to know" she said trying to push me away, but no! I won't let go so easily.

"I will fucking destroy everything and everyone that will care to interfere between me and my way to you," I breathed out on her face, my jaw clenched along with my fist.

I let go of her chin and take a step back. "let's go home" I say as I grabbed her wrist firmly not letting her go and surprisingly she didn't fight back and walked along with me.

I made her sit inside my car and we drove off to our apartment. We didn't really speak further than that because Rania was zoning out.

We reached our building and walked towards our floor. We took the lift and stopped at Rania's floor. "Won't you go from the elevator now?" she asked, coldly, looking confused.

"I'll take the stairs from here," I replied, wanting to make sure she was safely inside her apartment.

We walked towards her door, and our eyes widened when we noticed a gift box placed on the ground exactly in front of the door.

There was a note written on it, 'To Rania Syed.'

I gazed at it and then at Rania. "Someone has kept a gift for you," I told her, as she confusingly nodded.

It didn't sit well with me as I wondered who could have sent her a gift, but anyway, it's fine, so I walked upstairs.

I was about to type my code and enter when I heard a loud, piercing scream from Rania, making my heart race and panic set in.

Without wasting a second, I rushed downstairs to see a terrified Rania clutching her hand towards her chest and shivering.

She was still standing at her front door with the gift thrown harshly on the floor. She was already sweating in terror, and panic settled more in me as I swiftly ran towards her.

Before I could say anything, she pointed to the open gift box. I hurriedly walked towards the fallen box, and my eyes widened in terror.

My jaw clenched, and my fists tightened.

The gift box had a grave-yard shaped toy with flowers sprinkled on it, and there was a note written, "You soon, Rania Syed."
