The Fear

Her mother was cooking in the kitchen when with a knock on the door she came out to the door. The door was knocked again.

"Coming. Wait a little."

"Hi, Mom." As she opened the door, Biya entered greeting her mother.

"My Biya came."

"Yes, Mom....how is Papa? She came to the lounge and dropped her dupatta aside while asking her mother, who bring the water for her.

"He is feeling good now."

"Mama, let me meet Papa then I will make lunch." Taking off her shoes, scarf, and bag she said, gazing at her mother adoringly.

"No, you go and sit with your papa. You are tired. I myself will see the kitchen." Nodding her head, she walked towards her father's room.

"How are you, papa?" Her father, who was lying straightly on the bed with his arm in his eyes, slide down his arm as he listened to the voice of Biya.

"I'm good, my daughter." With a smile on his face, he looked at Biya who was leaning on him and dropping a kiss on his forehead. She then sat with him closely and took his both hands in her hands and pressed him slowly.

"Are you sure papa?" He quickly smiled at her that act.

"Now I am perfectly fine after seeing my daughter."

"Papa, I am always with you and I will never leave you. Then why are you worried?" She raised her eyes and stared at her father, whose face was clearly expressing his inside restlessness.

"Papa...."

"Biya, I don't know I'm always caught up by the fear that someone will snatch my daughter from me.... whenever you go outside.... whenever I am at the office, thought of you staying away from me makes me feel restless."

"Papa, no one can take me away from you other than death because we don't have any power over this..... I am your son..... your proud ....then why are you worried?" She softly pressed her father's hand, telling him lovingly. She can clearly feel the shivering of his hands and the restlessness on his face.

But she was unable to understand the reason of his fear, restlessness, and shivering.

"If both father and daughter duo love has ended then come out. Lunch has been served." Her mother was standing in the doorway and gazing at both of them adoringly.

"Let's go papa....we will eat together. And you have to make yourself completely fine today so tomorrow you will go to the office, huh.... you are getting sick because of these useless thoughts." Biya holds him by his arm and makes him get up from the bed.

As they both came out, they saw Fahad come back from school and Haya was also at home from college. Then they all are their lunch in a pleasant environment.

They were unaware of the fact that their horrible fate which was standing in a distance was smiling at them.
