Nayab got free after assisting in a surgery a little past six in the evening. When she checked her phone, it had two missed calls from Danish. She immediately changed out of her scrubs, cleaned up and called him back.

“Hi,” His raspy voice said. She had to stop herself from sighing out loud at the sound of him. She still couldn’t believe that they had met again.

“Hey,” She started to pack up her stuff in her handbag, “Sorry for missing your call, I was in surgery.”

“No problem, are you free now?” He asked.

“Yeah,” She waved goodbye to her colleagues, “Just leaving the hospital.”

“So..” He hesitated, “Can we..can we meet?”

That made her blush. “Missing me already, Mr Vaziri?”

She heard him exhale loudly. “I have been missing you for the last three years, Ms Haider. And now that I have got you, I am not wasting anymore time.”

Her steps halted at his words. He was still terrific with his words and managed to leave her speechless.

When she didn’t say anything for a few seconds, he continued, “So, dinner?”

“Yes.”

They were seated at a restaurant together an hour later. The waiter served them their food.

“Guess what?” She said as she took a bite of her chili chicken.

He sexily raised an eyebrow.

“Simran and Angad are expecting their first child.”

“What?” He laughed, “It took them three years?”

She gasped and chuckled at the same time. “What does that mean?”

“They were so lovey-dovey! I thought they’d be having two kids by now.”

“That’s mean.” She shook her head with a smile.

“What is mean about it?”

“I..I am not discussing my best friend’s sex life with you!” She was red in embarrassment.

He snickered, but nonetheless moved on.

“I am so full.” He groaned after finishing the meal.

Her condition was no different. They both were super hungry since they had skipped lunch, so they ended up ordering too much food. Danish brought out his card to pay the  bill, and she let him. 

They drove back home in complete silence, listening to music.

“Hey, is that offer for coffee you gave yesterday valid today?” He asked when they reached her apartment.
