Neha was munching on her pizza when she saw Zada walking into the cafe
Neha raised her hands and waved frantically earning Zada's attention
"Adaa..... Here...here"
"Ada??" Zahir and Zian frowned
"There. My best friend. Her name is Zada. I call her Ada because I'm her bestie and I should call her something different"
"You should??"
Zada came to their table and took a seat next to Zahir
"Twins. This is my best friend Zada. And Ada...these are the infamous twins. Zahir and Zian. Remember our project??" Neha eyed zada not so discreetly
"Project?? What project??" Zian asked
"It's a secret Zi-zi"
"Zi-zi?? Now what's that??"
"Arre my special name for you. I always give special names to everyone. Everyone calls you Zian. You said you sister calls you Zi. Your brother too calls you that. But I like Zi. So I thought I would call you zi-zi. Aren't I smart?? Wo kya hei na... When momma was pregnant with me she used to eat 21 almonds every-day. Her momma, that is my nani... She used to make momma eat all those things like almonds, saffron in milk ,spinach, broccoli ,tomatoes. But I don't really like tomatoes. They are eeww.... "
"Okay. I don't have the energy for another discussion on tomatoes please" Zada called a halt to Neha's ranting
"Sweetheart!! I'm hurt" Zahir said clutching his heart dramatically earning an eyeroll from both his siblings
"Why?? What happened??" Neha asked with a frown
"You have special names for everyone but not for me??" Zahir asked with a pout
"Oh no!! I'm trying to figure out one. I haven't come up with one yet. Everyone, feel free to suggest a special name for Z1" Neha said
"Okay sweetheart. I waiting with bated breath" Zahir said and took some fries from Zada's plate
Zada swatted his hands away
"How many time have we told you not to steal from our plates" Zada whispered leaning towards him
"We are triplets. What is yours is mine too" Zahir whispered back grinning cheekily and stole another fry from her plate
Zada groaned
"When will you grow out of this triplet excuse. You have been using that ever since you learned to talk"
"And that happened way before you two learned to talk. I know you two still hold a grudge against me for that. But what is my fault in that. I'm born smart. You two had to work hard to keep up with me. That doesn't means you will treat me like this little sis. I'm hurt" Zahir said with a pout
"Chup. Dramebaaz.And how many times I have to tell you I'm not your little sister.I'm only ten minutes younger to you" Zada said and they both looked upto see Neha looking at them with narrowed eyes
"Neha.... "
Neha pointed a finger at Zahir
"You... "
"Look. We will explain okay. Relax" Zahir said trying to placate her
"What is there to explain. You were stealing fries from my bestie's plate. As a best friend I will fight you from Ada's corner. You will buy her another plate of fries" Neha said and Zahir and Zada breathed out in relief and Zian rolled his eyes
"All the best bro. I wonder how long she will take to figure out that you have feelings for her" Zahir mumbled audible only for Zian earning a glare in return
Zahir placed another plate of fries in front of Zada and bowed dramatically in front of Neha
"Aapki hukum your highness" he said and Neha giggled
Neha's phone binged and she attended the call and after listening to the person on the other end she shrieked in excitement
"I'm at the cafe. Come here fast" she said and hung up the phone and did a little dance in her seat
"What happened?? Who was it??"
"It was Ritesh" Neha said happily
"Who the hell is Ritesh??" Zian asked
"He is my classmate. You remember Zada?? I told you about him. He got a new bike. He had brought it today. He said he will take me on a ride. We are bunking the class today" Neha said clapping her hands in excitement
Amar, after sending his mother home, walked towards the cafe and on his way he met Sammy
As they entered the cafe he saw his Mirrie sitting with the twins and Neha
Neha seemed to be having an argument with Zahir?? Or was it Zian??
The other one and Mirrie was watching the scene with an amused look on their face. The only thing missing is a bucket of popcorn
"What's going on guys..??" Amar asked as he pulled a seat next to Zada
Zada could feel her heart in her throat
He wouldn't behave as if he know her.. Would he??
"Oh Neha here wants to go on a bike ride and Zi seems to have some problem with that" Zahir said with a smirk
At the same time a good looking guy entered the cafe twirling a key on his fingers
He looked around and spotted Neha and a smile appeared on his face
"Heyy Neha" he walked towards her and his eyes widened in surprise seeing the golden clique with Neha
"Wow!! You are friends with the golden clique. That's fantabulous" he said
"I'm fantabulous" Neha said grinning proudly
"Heyy. I'm Ritesh. I'm Neha's friend. Actually we are going for a ride. I came to pick up neha" he said with a smile
Zian stood up from his chair and towered over the guy. He folded his arms across his chest and stared him down
"You want to take her for a ride??" He asked staring straight into the guy's eyes
Ritesh frowned cluelessly
"Uh yes"
"You do??" Zian again asked in a dangerously calm voice
Ritesh cleared his throat and smile awkwardly as he saw the danger signs in Zian's stance
"Actually mom wanted me to come home early today. I totally forgot. I think I should go home now" Ritesh said throwing an apologetic glance at Neha
Zian patted Ritesh's shoulder swatting away the invisible dust
"That's great. Mom should always be your priority. Now go"
Neha pouted as she watched Ritesh walk away
"That was supposed to be my first bike ride" Neha said giving Zian an accusing look
"If you want to go on a bike ride. I will take you" Zian said and Neha's face lit up like a 1000 watts bulb
"Really??"
"Yeah"
"You have officially become my knight in shining armor" she declared throwing her arms around him giving him a tight hug
The others on the table looked on with widened eyes and open mouth
Heat crept up Zian's cheeks and Zahir smirked evilly
"Aww is Neha's zi-zi blushing" Zahir asked
"Shut up" Zian glared at him
"How fast time flies.Look at you, all set to go on a bike Date. It feels like yesterday you were running around in your diapers." Zahir said dramatically wiping away his non existent tears
"And forgetting his underwear" Zada quipped in forgetting the audience
"Forgetting under... -" Neha trailed off as Zian glared at Zahir and Zada
"Shut up. One more word and I will disown you" he said to both his siblings and took hold of Neha's hands and walked away
Zahir and Zada hi fied having successfully irritating their sibling
Amar stared at them in confusion
"You guys know each other??" He asked
