Now he was reckless after meeting Eva, why on Earth was she working in this school?
" You okay, Tim?" Riyadh asked looking at him.
"If I say that I am okay, I would be lying. Meeting her today was unexpected, and I am still trying to assess my feelings. I don't really understand right now, what I am feeling. It's really complicated", He replied.
" She had moved on Tim, it would be better if you do the same", Riyadh said.
"I have moved on Riyadh but I never got over her. She still holds a very special place in my heart and no matter how much I try I am not able to stop myself from thinking about her. She is everywhere Riyadh, she lives with me day and night. She might not have loved me but I have always loved her with all my heart", Taimur said sighing and resting his head on the back of the seat.
Nearly two weeks had passed since they arrived in New York. Taimur had been busy each day.
In the daytime, there were business meetings, official visits, interviews and night time there were dinners and other events.
It was Sunday, he didn't have any appointments and meetings in the day time, he decided to do some shopping for Alia and the boys.
The twins had given him a long list of toys they had wanted. He had dressed in a t-shirt and leather jacket paired with jeans.
With a baseball cap on his head and sunglasses, it was nearly impossible to identify him. The only way he could ditch the paparazzi.
He had left the hotel in a delivery truck, they had dropped him to the spot where his driver was waiting for him.
Taimur gave the name of the mall he wanted to visit the driver. The drive was uneventful till they arrive at the mall.
He was in a toy shop, trying to find the toys the Twins had on the list and was really annoyed. The names they gave were the most difficult to find.
He shopped personally for Alia and the boys, he never gave the list to his secretary to buy them for him as most business tycoons would do.
It gave him immense joy, to shop for them, they were the most important asset of his life and he was ready to give his life for them.
He was looking for a Transformer Robot, Ahmed had specifically told him to buy for him, he remembered they had every transformer robot may it be the Autobot or Decepticon ever manufactured but still they wanted more.
As he was reading the names of the robots, he felt someone had wrapped their hands around his legs.
Taimur turned and looked at the person, she was a girl 4 or 5 years of age with black curly hairs tied into two ponytails.
He carefully unwrapped her hands and crouched on the floor in front of her.
The girl was wearing a pink t-shirt and blue jeans. " Daddy's little girl" was written on the front of her t-shirt.
" Hello little one", He said looking the girl in her eyes.
He was startled to see the girl had the same jade green color eyes like his. What a coincidence. He thought amused.
"Shhhh, ............ Daddy", The girl placed her forefinger on his lips trying to stop him from saying anything further.
Taimur felt like someone squeezed his heart when he heard the girl say, daddy.
" Daddy?" He asked.
"Daddy", she said leaning towards Taimur, she was so close to him that he could see the golden streaks around her pupil.
They were the same color as his, it was like he was seeing the reflection of his own eyes in someone else's face.
" I wish we had a daughter, with green eyes like yours" Alia's words echoed in his mind.
"I like Autobots, Optimus is my favorite. Mommy doesn't like transformers, she says they always fight", Emma replied.
" You like Optimus?" He asked.
This time she nodded her head in agreement pretty fast, her curls bounced with every movement of her head.
He was watching her mesmerized, he couldn't figure out why was he so attracted to this toddler so much.
"Can I buy Optimus for you?" He asked looking in her eyes.
Her pupils dilated and her eyes shone for a second.
"You will buy Optimus for me?" She asked delightedly.
"Yep, and whatever you like", He replied laughing.
" I also like ice cream", She said after thinking for some time.
"Don't you like, chocolates?" He asked enjoying her talk.
"I like truffles and M&M's," She said excitedly.
"Come we will buy you robots, chocolate, and ice cream," He said standing while holding her finger.
He looked around for her parents, but there were not many people in the store. Maybe she was lost, he will have to drop her at customer service.
He bought her Optimus's replica in all brands present in the store, then he took her to a chocolate store. He bought as many chocolates as he could carry for her.
