"Its hot today, lets just cancel the plan of going shopping please..."
A girl in her twenties stated.

"Nope not happening, I have to go today and the weather aint bad, I love summers plus my nearly one million instagram followers are always waiting for me to post something new. So to make some content I have to get going...."
Waving her friend off, a girl just her age stated with proudness.

"Liyana I am jealous! You were like the topper in college and then you get a free scholarship in a well known buisness school and plus you are such an inspiring influencer and you make so much money through that."
Her class fellow and a friend safa stated..

"Thats what I am..." shrugging her shouldeŕs she stated and taking a selfie uploaded it on her Ig account with the caption...

"Off we go shopping..."

It was a bright sunny day in Dubai and irha was over at the jbr branch of the pasha restaurant to look over and manage. She had just reached from their office. Walking towards her restaurant her steps halted at the OBJ and without a second thought she was inside.

Looking around the small joint she assessed that it was plainly decorated with dull lights and colours but keeping silent her eyes trailed over the owner, who was standing behind the counter. His eyes always had a shine, a dream of achieveing alot.

"Hey, you need anything?" Looking over at her he came out and walked towards her.

"Nothing, was just passing by so stopped to say a hello but a cola wont hurt." Adorning her pretty face with a smile she said.

"Sure, maaz bring maam a chilled cola please.," instructing maaz he pulled a chair for her and nodding she sat down.

"Tum nahi logay?" ( you wont drink?)" She asked when maaz brought her the chilled cola.

"Nahi...( no)." Shaking his head he smiled and hung his head low.

Taking a sip she smiled, he was silent, not even for once he asked about her reviews on his place, not a word and she knew he would never ask her....

"I have to go somewhere if its okay with you?" Getting up from his seat he said.

"Yeah, go ahead even I have to get to my restaurant and thanks for the drink."
Smiling slightly she said standing up and nodding his head he left the joint and shrugging her shoulders she was out of the OBJ also.

Doing alot of shopping from different shops and walking tirelessly in the scorching heat had exhausted both the girls. Plus all the while liyana had kept on going live through her account which was quite a hurdle but who could dare stop that brat of a girl.

"I need my favourite watermelon juice from that stall safa, that too right now and I cant wait in that long que, please do something."
Slumping on a bench near the famous juice point liyana said and safa looked at her as if she had gone nuts, there was a lane of about 25 people to say the least and they both had no further energy to go and wait.

"Its packed and full, lets just have a drink from somewhere else please li."
Safa stated.

"Nope, others dont suit my taste buds, juice to main yahi peongi...!"( i will drink from here)".
Liyana said looking around to find a prey.

"Do not expect me to go and stand in that line and get a juice for the princess."
Safa said fanning her face with a hand fan.

"I know you aint capable of that, let me just find someone to do the job for me, just a little bit of drama and the juice will be here..."
She said standing up and safa knew this girl was crazy, she must be having an evil plan in her mind.

"What are you thinking Li? Please dont land us in trouble."
She said sounding worried.

She was liyana's only friend because all the girls in the college knew how much of a psycho liyana was and how unfriendly too.
But as safa had no friends because yes racism existed in her school too and safa was a girl with some skin problems hence no one wanted to befriend her  but liyana had welcomed her into her friend zone openly though liyana had been selfish at many points and always bossy but still she had bonded quite well with her.
For safa liyana was everything, her friend and partner because all the fun she had in her life was because of liyana only.

"You see that guy in yellow tee shirt, he seems in good relations with the juice man, he will get us drinks. Just wait and watch."
Finally looking around for sometime her eyes landed on a male clad in yellow plain tee and some track pants, he seemed too casual to her fashion likings but  after assesing him for a while she gripped the idea that he was the juice stall mans aquantance. He was standing beside hum, talking and smiling and drinking juice, her favourote melon juice.

"What? " safa asked bewildered.

"Yes.. " replying to safa she walked away but ofcourse pretending that her leg had just hit a car or something. Going to another side she called out the man.

"Hello! Excuse me sir..." she voiced out loudly and the man in his late twenties looked around and seeing her he walked towards her because smiling she waved her hands at him.

"Yes, how can i help?" He asked in a civil manner and she suppressed her smile. She never knew such gentlemen still existed.

"Excuse me sir, I, I have a broken knee and my legs are hurting terribly plus I am really thirsty, the heat is killing me, the ladies daughter where I work also wants juice from here and its so crowdy, I think I cant wait and stand in the cue for so long and cant upset her also, so if you can get me two melon juices, I will be honoured."
Making a sad face she stated and the guy looked at her, she never looked like a maid from her dressing and seemed quite young to work also but then it was dubai and everything was possible here.

"Ok..just be seated there and I will get it for you." Agreeing he said and taking cash from her went to his friend and got two melon juices made for her quickly though he was feeling bad for the people standing in que to get their juices, it seemed unfair but the girl seemed unwell too.

"Here!, anything else I could help you with?" He asked handing her the change and juices.

"Nothing, thanks alot man." Taking the juices from his hands she waved at safa to come there also and she had come running.

"See, mera jugaar kaam aya!"( see my plan worked)." Winking at her she said and the guy who had just turned to leave turned back and looked at her with squinted eyes.

"Kiyaa?" ( what?)"  He asked in urdu.

"Oh you know urdu? Never mind, I am absolutely fine and she is my friend, yar kis angle se main maid lagti hoo? Or wo bhi iski, apko budhu banaya mene or ap bangaye.... asta lavista....take care man!" ( from which angle do I look like a maid and that too hers? Anyways I pranked you)."
Laughing a hearty laugh she said and before he could utter any word holding onto safa's hand she ran away.

"My legs are fine!" She yelled looking back at the astonished man.

"Kids these days." Shaking his head in disbelief Mr Izhaan Mustafa said and walked away from there.

"Bechara!" She murmurred laughing hard.

"Did you have your meal izhaan?" Opening the door to his apartment his hands stilled listening to irha's soothing voice.

"What are you doing up so late?" He asked looking back at her. She was shining in the dark night.

"Just came back from work right now." She said jiggling her car keys.

"Why do you tire yourself so much?" He asked.

"I get paid extra izhaan and you know establishing my self and creating a promising future for myself and my mom are my goals."
She said looking up at him.

"Many atimes I have told you to trust me irha, I will manage to give you a promising future, stop tiring yourself."
He said looking into her eyes but next instant he had lowered them as she smiled.

"I know your capabilities izhaan but I cant be seated doing nothing plus you have dreams too big and achieving them will take you years, I cant say as yet how long I can wait."
Tucking her hair behind her ears she said in a low voice and smiling at her words he simply nodded.

"Do your thing irha, best of luck." He murmurred and turned to open his door.

"Dinner izhaan?, mom must have cooked something nice and will be glad if you join."
She asked one last time even though she somehow knew his answer.

"Go ahead irha, I will come visit her some other day." Smiling he said and entered his apartment, an asset that was his. That was his parents last residence.

Turning on the lights he entered inside and just in the patio his parents pictures were hanged.

"I will take care of everything papa, I will filful your dreams. I will continue your lagacy and how ever long it may take I will make OBJ the leading fast food chain in the gulf."
Raking his hand over his fathers picture he whispered as a lone tear escaped his eyes.

Looking over at his mothers smiling picture he took it in his hands and kissed her forehead.

" it will all be revenged mom! I will take down pasha.co!"
He said taking a deep breath and hanged her picture on the wall again.

A month had passed by and it was getting harder for izhaan mustafa to manage everything. Paying rents and bills of the joint at such an expensive place was not easy when it was not making any profits. Plus he was very regular in paying off the wages to his employs, it was a small team and close friends of his but he never backed off from his words.

He would take a walk around the area and see pasha.co flooded with customers while his little joint would only manage 3 to 6 people on average per day.

Maaz and raina who were his employs and friends were now getting worried about him but he would always wave off the topic with a smile. He just couldent back off from here, he couldent shift to a cheaper area at any cost that he knew better.

"Mom I am going out! Dont wait for me over dinner! " liyana said to her mom over the phone as her mother was still at work.

"Okay dear." Her mother replied before hurriedly disconnecting the phone. She worked in a five star hotel as a receptionist.

....

Quickly dressing up and leaving her silky locks open liyana hurried out with her skating gear. Fetching safa on the way they both headed to JBR.

It was lively in the evening, people from across the city were present there hanging out with their friends and families. Many tourists could be seen. JBR was always flooding with different nationalities as Dubai was a cosmopolitan city and a tourist hub these days.
Liyana always loved being here and she loved dubai, it was always sunny and happy. It gave her positive vibes. She hated gloomy weathers.

Loud musics was playing around, enhancing the atmospheres fun. kids were seen cycling and some hanging out in the park, some people strolling around ans somw busy shopping.
Many wines and dines were open and flooded with people.

Smiling and inhaling in the beachs breezy air liyana got into her skating gear and putting on her helmet she had started skating around. It always feel as if she was flying. Holding onto safa's hands she had increased their speed despite safa stopping her but she giggled away enjoying the moments.

Trying hard for his little burger joint izhaan mustafa had printed out pomphlets ( fliers) for the promotion of his joint and was happily handing them over to the people around in hopes of getting his joint some customers.
Handing the papers to a couple he looked back hearing some screams but before he could process what was happening he was hit hardly with a girl on a skating board.

In a thud he was on the ground bumping his head hard and on top of him lay a young girl while another girl fell on the side.

"Are you deaf? I was screaming for you to move away! Dumb head!"
Pulling herself up the girl yelled angrily and taking her helmet off her words died down and izhaans eyes nearly popped up!

"You, you are the juice girl? Arent you?" Pulling himself up he said whimpering in pain.

"Hey, you are bleeding!, come lets take you to a pharmacy nearby and get you bandaged."
Safa sensing the oozing blood from his head stated nearly panicking and Liyana looked at him bewildered.

Everyone had gathered around and had suggested to get him bandaged but before someone could utter another word he had fainted. Panic had began and calling an ambulance he was taken to the hospital with the two girls tagging along.
.....

"Why am I here?......,  Its ,its you two, the juice girls?"
Coming into conciousness izhaan sat up panicked sensing it was a hospital but seeing the two girls on his head he stated.

"Yeah sorry we bumped into you but the doctors said your injury was just alittle cut, you fainted because of exhaustion and over work!"
Safa stated  and he sighed. While liyana was just rolling her eyes and tapping her feet, she was bored and wanted to leave as soon as possible.

"Did you guys get my bag?" He asked sounding concerned.

"Yes unfortunately but I checked it, it has nothing apart from some crappy papers."
Liyana stated holding onto his bag.

"These are fliers for my burger joints promotion." He said sitting up.

"Argh! You are so old school, who does promotion like this when you have the internet dude!"
She said holding one pomphlet in her hand and crushing the paper she threw it in the bin.

"People throw them away like this." Clapping her hand she said chuckling and safa pinched her to shush up!.

"Internet?" He asked curious but was interupted with a doctors entry.

"You are free to go, but do take good rest please and all your dues are clear by these young ladies."
The doctor said professionally and left.

"We are extremely sorry!" Safa stated before leaving.

"If you really are then pay my burger joint a visit." Saying he handed them both the fliers and left.

"Who is he? If someone would have bumped into me and gotten me into an hospital I would have asked for so much money as compensation. He was nuts, handing us these stupid fliers."
Looking at the paper in her hand liyana said and safa smiled.

"Seen someone like him for the very first time." Moving out safa said and nodding liyana placed the pomphlet in her bag.
