~You watch me bleeding till I can't breath.

Aching.

Falling onto my knees.

And now that I'm without your kisses..
I'll be needing stitches..

Harris turned the radio off disconnecting Vania's phone from the Aux cable and handed it to her.

He peaked up at her face keeping his hold just a little tight buying time, but she grabbed it wordlessly pulling it out and turned to get off as did everyone else.

Harris sighed remorsefully.

Gaya main...

***

He watched as she stood chatting with the rest, just a few goodbye note and reminding Haider to sent her the pictures Harris had. Because it always his camera they used.

Perks of being the eldest he had the best phone.. *Cough...

***

Vania looked up and he quickly looked down playing with the keys in his hands..

Her face fell and she rolled her eyes before smiling at the rest,

"Allah Hafiz! Take care!"

Finally!

Hania unwrapped her arms from around her and moved to go in while Vania left for the next door...

Huffing, Harris quickly locked the car and ran after her.

"Vania.. " She turned back surprised but kept walking forwards seeing Harris.

He called again and she didn't stop.

"Vania yaar.."

Two steps got him in front of her and she was forced to pause in the middle of the garden.

He wanted her to look at him but Vania had her gaze fixed on the dark grass below.

"Vania..."

"Kya chahiye tum ko Harris? Ek Nobody ke liye itni attention kyun de rhy ho?" She responded hotly but her voice cracked by the end.

"Vania! Obviously I didn't mean what I said! I just wanted to get rid of him! You don't know Rafid okay--" Harris argued annoyed by her reaction but she cut him off quickly.

"So to get rid of people you can say whatever you want?" Vania looked up at then and he was shocked to see her eyes glistening.

The frown on his melted away and his expression softened along with his tone..

"Nhii! Yaarr Vani... I would never intentionally hurt you!! I just..."

"Whatever Harris!" Vania waved him off, "It's fine.. Jo bhi... I don't care." She turned to leave and Harris instinctively grabbed her shoulders.

Vania sucked in a sharp breath meeting his eyes shocked.

"Vania... You are not Nobody!" He said shaking her a little.

Whatever she said.. He knew that she cared.

And for all his lame sarcasm, Harris would never let her entertain the idea that he didn't care!
