Chapter 21

Naina was in her bed when she her phone beeped,she immediately took her phone as she was expecting Zain's text.

Sami: 'Hey!'

'Hi.' She replied.

S:'How are you?'

N:'I am good,do you want something?'

S:'Now what's the plan? How can we let them get to see each other?'

N:'I don't know,i am a little afraid too,she is my friend,i feel like betraying her.'

S:'You guys are free from 10 onwards tomorrow?'

N:'Yeah.'

S:'Take her out to a cafe,let her choose the location and then text me,I'll do the rest.'

N:'Okay.'

S:'And you are just helping her,its not betrayal,she told you already that she likes him too.'

N:'Yeah she did but still..'

S:'Relax Naina,everything will be good.'

N:'I hope so.'

S:'Don't worry,I am with you.'

N:'Hm.'

Next day

"This cafe is quite nice,its my first time here Esha." Naina spoke admiring the cafe.

"Glad you liked it,next time come with your Husband." Esha laughed.

"I surely will,he is just super busy these days."

"I know right! Anyways what should we eat?" Asked Esha.

"Something like pasta I guess?" Naina replied and then they heard an intruder. "Can we sit ladies?" It was Sami who spoke and alongwith him was Usman.

"Yeah s..sure." Naina got up to sit beside Esha,making room for them to sit.

"So how are you Naina and Esha?" Asked Sami.

"We are good..excuse me,I have to place the order." Naina got up.

"I'll come with you."

"Its okay Esha,keep him company...I have to place order for us too."Sami went behind Naina.

Esha was nervous as hell sitting infront of him,she took her phone out of her pocket and trying to avoid his gaze.

"Why do you avoid me?" He finally spoke up.

"I don't."

"Yeah you just run away from the place where you see me or hear my name."

"I..

"You know that was not a damn prank back then when I...i told you what i felt for you."

"Y..you never showed up again,I..th...thought that was just some fun game for you."

"I came to you countless times Esha but you always turned your back at me,you could have just simply said no."

"I.."

"You could have just said no and I would have never bothered you again..heck! I never did,I had all the means but It wasn't some kind of game for me.

"Look at me now,let's sort this out once and for all."

She looked up to see him directly looking in her eyes.

"Do you like me?"

"I..

"Just tell me yes or no Esha,The past year bothered me like crazy,I can't get you out of my head." Usman was desparate to know her answer.

"But I don't know you." She replied.
