"Ah! I'm soo full. I can't eat more yaar, I need to watch my figure too." Huda said pushing back her plate eating just the half sandwich.

"Oh come on! We're still in 10th grade. What's the point of watching your figure now." Her friend said chewing on her sandwich.

"Of course I have to watch it. I don't want to turn into a chubby teddy like you." Huda cooed pulling her cheek.

Her friend pouted.
"Hey! I'm not chubby. I'm just cute."

"Sure ...sure!"

After finishing thier drinks they went to thier different ways.

It was Saqib's first day at a part time job in that cafe. Even though he was blind, the owner hired him seeing his passion to learn. It wasn't like he didn't knew anything. At the age of 20 he could chop vegetables and fruits and make simple snack that didn't involve fire. Still, he was given the job of a dishwasher as he was still a newbie. There were a lot of school students has there customer as a school was just nearby. Business was going good but the young highschool girls who came, were quite noisy and he wasn't used to such atmosphere. Although, the reason why he chose the cafe was to get used to search atmosphere.

All the customers had left and the cafe was empty so the employees decided to take a break as the owner wasn't around.
"Hey newbie! I am going for a smoke. You're incharge!"

"Huh? Me? But what if someone comes?" Saqib panicked

"Then fix them something. You said you know how to make snacks." The guy said and disappeared

"But.... I...." He sighed. Everyone had already left him alone. He was silently praying that no one should come but to his horror he heard the hanging bell of the door, meaning of customer just walked in.

He shut his eyes panicking. Just his luck.

"Is anyone there?"

He heard a female voice.
"Y...yes coming." He shouted from inside and taking a deep breath, walked out to the counter.

"Finally everyone left! Thank God! I thought I'd starve to death..... I'll have a double cheese sandwich and fries!"

"Uh... ma'am...n...no ones...."

"Please hurry ok. I'm hungry!" She said patting the table in eagerness with both her hands, her eyes still glued on the menu not paying attention to his words. All she could think of was food.

Saqib sighed and went in. He didn't even knew the original recipe of the cafe, nor where all the ingredients were kept. Still he managed to find some ingredients by thier smell and taste and nervously fixed a sandwich fighting through her constant calling. Luckily the fries just needed some heating.

Seriously how can someone be so hungry!

He came out with the order and following the sound of her banging he placed the plates.

"Ugh! What took you soo long? Anyways thanks."
She looked at the sandwich making a weird face.
"Dude! What's this presentation?"
