The next morning, the youngsters Zaim, Ayaan, Zara, Inaya, and Zayan-were at the breakfast table, still sleepy from their Sunday morning lie-in. The elders had already finished their breakfast and were now relaxing in the drawing room.

Zaim interrupted the lazy morning, "Ayaan, vo papers jo tum mujhe kal dikha rahe the, kaha rakhe hain?"

Ayaan replied, "Mere room me table pe honge. Chaliye, mai de deta hu, par aaj Sunday hai."

Zaim responded, "I know, mujhe kuch check karna tha." They both left for Ayaan's room, leaving the rest of the youngsters laughing and showing fake sympathy towards Ayaan.

Just then, the doorbell rang, sparking a playful debate between Inaya and Zayan over who would answer the door. Inaya playfully threw a pillow at Zayan's handsome face before going to open the door.

As she opened the door, she was surprised to see her friends standing there. She nearly screamed in excitement, "Ahhh, aap log yaha kaise???"

The first person replied with a smile, "Magic!"

The second person chimed in, "Aap kehti hai to hum sab wapis chale jaate hai."

Inaya, still catching her breath, responded, "Nahi nahi-"

They all laughed as the third person said, "So, where is your drama queen sister?"

Inaya pointed towards the drawing room, "She's in there, come on."

They walked into the drawing room to find Zara seated with her back facing towards them. As they approached, Inaya sat down next to Zara, who was clearly frustrated, "Kal to sirf mera plan ditch kiya tha, aaj to koi call ya text ka bhi reply nahi de raha. Isiliye kaha jata hai kabhi bhi zyada planning ya excited nahi hona chahiye kisi bhi chiz ke liye warna last me disappointment hi milta hai. Mujhe jana tha yaar."

Suddenly, Zara felt a whisper in her ear, "Accha, aapko bhi jana tha." Annoyed, Zara shouted, "Kal se 10 baar baar bol chuki hu same baat." Zayan looked up from his screen and nearly screamed, "Zara Aapi!" which irritated Zara even more. "Zayan, mai last baar bol rahi hu, mere sath ye faltu mazak mat kiya karo. Mai thapad marungi."

Just then, a voice interrupted, "Aise kaise marogi tum usse." Zara, recognizing the voice, gasped and turned back to see her friends, Hania, Noor, and Amaira standing there. Without thinking, Zara ran towards them, throwing herself into their arms, "Ahhhh, mujhe pata tha tum log itni bhi buri nahi ho yaar. I love you guys so much." Due to the sudden pressure, they stumbled backwards, and Zayan joked, "Aate hi gira dengi kya??" Everyone chuckled.

Hearing the noise, Ayesha and Seher came out. Seher, without witnessing the scene, started as a typical desi mother, "Kyu lad rahe ho phir tum log?" but they were also surprised by their presence. "Arey! Beta tum sab yaha kaise? Arey idhar aao." They chuckled and moved towards her to be embraced by Ayesha. Everyone smiled at them.

Seher said, embracing them, "Kya baat hai? Itna pyara surprise." Everyone chuckled, seeing the sudden excitement on the ladies' faces.

Then both Zara's father and uncle came out, talking about some political and business matters. Seeing them, they greeted, "Assalamualaikum Uncle," to which Zara's father replied, patting their heads, "Masha Allah kya baat hai" Zara's uncle said, "Accha kiya beta, aagayi tum log. Kal se Zara ke 75 tarah ke face expression dekh chuka hu." Everyone laughed while Zara just pouted.
