HEY!!!
So, initially I was going to cast Sajal Ali as Maha BUT there are a couple of writers who have casted her as the main lead opposite Hussain so it just felt wrong. LOL

Plus when I look at the age factor, Sajal Ali would be quite old for this role. So I am going to change it to Shreya Sharma.

HappyReading,

LoveAlways!

~~~PREET'S POV~~~

"Hussain Asif- naam toh suna hi hoga!" I smiled to myself as a voice inside my head mimicked what Hussain had just said. Too filmy! Kuch original nahi toh kam se kam apni movie ka dialogue hi Bol deta.

"Yaar! We really need cellphones," Adeel sighed, "we need a cab but there is no way we can call one."

Even though the smoke had stopped, the car was pretty damaged. "It's Karma, baby!" I rolled my eyes and reached out for the last unopened water bottle that we had left. Cold liquid soothed my throat as I closed my eyes. I felt calm and relaxed now even though there was a much bigger problem ahead of us.

"Guys!" Waqas yelled from the far end of the road, "There is a board that says there is a hotel about seven kilometres from here," he informed us.

Waqas, Paige and Jessica had gone to look for some help while Shehry and Adeel tried fixing the car.

"Great! If we leave now, then we will reach in about an hour or so," Shehry said while picking up his small hiking bag pack, "I am sure someone will be able to help."

"Yeah! Let's go," I said, excited. I know it should come to me as an annoying situation but, I somewhere loved the idea of a long walk on a deserted highway.

"Oh hello? Kahaan?" Hussain clapped in front of my face, "I am not going to stay alone. Bhook se nahi toh boredom se mar jaunga."

"Haan toh, Asmaara is staying, right?" I smiled idiotically at Asmaara who turned my hopes down.

"I think I could really use this walk. Have heaps to clear out of my head," she sighed.

Phir phasa diya mujhe!

"Okie, I'll stay then aur tum Sab jao," I tried my best to send Hussain with them. I couldn't hang out with him. What if he asks me anything again?

"Toh tumhara khayal kaun rakkhe ga?" He almost laughed and I narrowed my eyes at him.

"Excuse me! I can look after myself," I huffed in annoyance and brought my hands together, positioning them for the only kung fu move I knew.

"Yeah right!" Hussain chocked on nothing but air, "You are almost like a magnet which attracts trouble and who ends up rescuing you?" He raised his hands in th air and pointed at himself.

Yeah whatever!

Shehry, Adeel, Asmaara and Waqas bid us goodbye and promised to come back before it gets dark. It almost felt like they were going on a war or something. Those "sambhal kar jana," "apnaa khayal rakhna," types goodbyes. Eeh!

"Looks like we have plenty of time to catch up now," Hussain smirked. I just rolled my eyes and walked over to the rocky shore. One thing good about all this is going to be me witnessing sunset at the beach.

~~~HUSSAIN'S POV~~~

I locked all the doors and followed Preet. Yeah! Kinda stuck with her but, I will manage. Uska pata nahi.

"Who is staying by the car?" She looked up.

"Locked it!" I tossed the keys up in the air and plopped on the sand, keeping a good distance between us.
