Zain opened his eyes and hissed in pain because of a blasting headache.
"what the hell!..."Zain cried, holding his head and looked around at unfamiliar surroundings. he get down from bed, walked out still holding his head with one hand.
Arham was just coming back from jogging and was drinking water, looked at him.
"Who are you?"Zain asked, walked toward him and sit on a stool that was placed outside the open kitchen.
"I will be ready for office in thirty minutes, You need to leave before that..."Arham said, gulping water down.
"I asked something from you?" Zain greeted his teeth at his attitude and walked in front of him. Arham put the water bottle on the table with an audible noise.
"I am not interested in giving you an answer... You better ask from Ayat and the door is there" Arham said, pointing toward the exit.
"Hod do you know Ayat?" Zain asked in a confused tone. Arham again ignored his question and was about to turn around, thought for a second and looked back at Zain.
"and next time don't make a girl pick you up at midnight...Have some manners," Arham said in an annoyed tone with a hint of anger and walked toward his room. Zain muttered some curses under his breath.
*****************************
"I am sorry for troubling you yesterday..." Zain said in a deep apologetic tone.
"zain you can call me when you are having a difficult time before getting drunk and after getting drunk but it would have been much better if you had called before getting drunk"
"I am totally fine... I got drunk because I was happy, you are forgetting I received an award yesterday."
"Ayesha can speak lie better than you..." Ayat said shaking her head and put his mobile in front of him.
"I have blocked their numbers, unblock them when you want to talk," Ayat said,
"I will get going now," Zain said and stepped out of the cafe. Ayat closed her eyes and held her with one hand.
***************************
Arham entered inside 'FireFly' and directly went and sit on the counter stool. Ayat, as usual, was sitting behind the counter, lost in deep thought, keeping face on the palm. Arham glanced at her sad face then at the cup of coffee in which she was simply stirring rod.
"Ayat!..." Arham said, knocking on the counter. Ayat raised her head and blinked at her.
"I can look at your beautiful face the whole day but I have a meeting... can I get some coffee and sandwich?" Arham said with a small cornered smile.
"Yesterday you asked me to make your Girlfriend jealous and today flirting with me?" Ayat asked with narrowed eyes.
"What's wrong in complimenting a beautiful girl?...." Arham asked with one raised eyebrow.
"I have never seen a shameless man like you in my whole life..." Ayat said, shaking her head in disbelief then stepped down from the stool and made coffee for him.
"Are you serious?.." Arham asked, looking at his coffee cup. Ayat has written 'SHAMELESS' on his coffee.
"You can compliment I can't?.." Ayat asked, going inside the kitchen. Arham glared at her back. She came back with a sandwich and placed it in front of him.
"Arham?..."
"hmm?..."He said while typing on his mobile and eating with another hand.
"Were you ever blamed for something and your family didn't trust you?" Ayat asked while starring at an unfocused spot. Arham stopped typing and looked at her. he gulped the stuck sandwich down his throat, remembering something.
"once..."He said, nodding his head. Ayat looked at him.
"did you meet them after clearing your name?"
"No, I didn't..."
"Why?..."
"because they died before I could have clear my name..." Arham said with a humourless chuckle. Ayat watched his facial expressions changing from normal to cold.
"I am sorry, I shouldn't have to ask," Ayat said in a guilty voice.
"the world is such a strange place the person who should be sorry, didn't even bother and the one who shouldn't is always apologetic," Arham chuckled at that. Ayat stared at him, there was something in his laugh which raised goosebumps on her skin.
"Anyway be ready in the evening, you will be going to party with me," Arham said, putting the amount on the counter.
"Party?..why should I go with you?" Ayat asked in a confused tone.
"because I need you to make Sana jealous..."Arham said in an obvious tone.
"I told you I don't want to do this stupid thing..."Ayat said, shaking her head in annoyance.
"you are forgetting you owe me a favour....so be ready, don't be late," Arham said with a smirk.
"you should have treated her nicely when she was with you," ayat said in a taunting tone. Arham shook his head and left from there.
"I can't believe I am doing this..." Ayat muttered to herself while going inside the kitchen.
