"Remind me once again, why are you here?" Zoya asked Ayaan who sat on her bed crisping her chips at 2 am in the night!
"What we do every night. Sit and talk, play Uno, crack jokes about my brother and his Tannu, skype your friends in New York and also cry together!" Ayaan shrugged and Zoya slipped next to him
dejectedly.
"If your bhaijaan finds out that you're hanging out with me, he's gonna kill you first and then throttle me to death." Zoya said with a sigh.
"Why are we talking about this again? I thought we were over all this." Ayaan said.
"Yeah but-"
"Shut up! And today is Saturday night! We're supposed to watch The Big Bang Theory and then Skype Asher, right?"
"Yeah! But I'm not sure whether we can skype today. Your bhaijaan is wide awake reading a book and if he hears me talking to someone, he's gonna yell. And trust me when I say, I've had enough of that." Zoya made a face. She had stopped conversing with him totally after the kebab incident. It was useless she felt.
"How do you know he's reading a book? Oh yeah, I forgot you luurrrvvveee him!!" Ayaan laughed.
"Shut that gob of yours otherwise I'm gonna hit you somewhere really unpleasant!" Zoya glared at him.
"Fine! Sit! I've put the episode on loading. And till then, we shall skype Asher."
"He's my best friend not yours! GOD!" Zoya rolled her eyes.
"Yeah but we're guys, and we're attracted to girls and he's a pro at such things and I need some tips." Zoya just glared and Skyped' Asher, her best friend from New York. The video call was picked up almost instantly.
"Zoee! Meri jaan! Wazza?" Asher said from the other side.
"Why aren't you wearing a shirt?" Zoya said with a frown.
"Yeah Asher why aren't you wearing a shirt?" Ayaan repeated her statement while Zoya smacked him.
"Errmm..I was busy.." Asher flushed.
"Are you boinking another bimbo during our video conference, Asher? AGAIN?" Zoya screamed.
"Zoya ssshhh! Bhaijaan will be here!" Ayaan covered her mouth and Zoya reduced her volume.
"I'm a guy, I need to have sex! I'm not boring like you people.
"You're calling us boring? Wait till you see Mr. Jammy!" Zoya and Ayaan high-fived each other.
"Mr. Jammy? Who is that, your pet dog?" Asher said while putting on a shirt. FINALLY.
"I wish he was." Zoya giggled.
"A dog your BFF fell in love with!" Ayaan blurted out to get a smack on his face.
"FELL IN LOVE?? Zoe? What's Ayaan saying?"
"Nothing! I don't love anybody. He's..he's bonkers!" Zoya flushed.
"JESUS CHRIST! You really have fallen for someone, haven't you? I'm coming there taking the next flight." Asher screamed.
"What? No..no! Ashu you don't have to come!" Zoya said. She knew he would see her hurt and take her away, maybe even punch Asad in his gut a couple of times. Because he's been protective of her since forever.
"Right! No my ass! See you in 48 hours Bestie!" And he disconnected the call and went offline.
"What'd you do that for?!" Zoya hit Ayaan with a pillow.
"What? I didn't say anything!"
"Really? You jerk!" She ran behind him as Ayaan ran all over the room. All had been forgotten about being calm and attracting Asad's attention. Zoya saw Ayaan standing against the door of the bedroom, if she had a perfect aim, he'd get the pillow right in his face.
She set his face in an angle, perfect for aim and threw the pillow. But as always, her luck failed this time too. A little too badly this time. As Ayaan gladly dodged the shot, the door of her room flung open and the pillow had hit someone else's face. As Zoya covered her mouth with her hands and let her eyes go wide with surprise, Asad Ahmed Khan stood there with the angriest glare she had ever received from him.
His gaze slowly fell on Ayaan and the condition of the room. Only this time the dirty bedspread, the potato chips and open laptop did not hold his attention for too long. It was a particular someone who held his attention. Ayaan Ahmed Khan was his name.
