Alia is smiling shyly in her red with white polka dots mini frock, her eyes are twinkling with love, holding a red rose in her hand she steps towards Siddharth. She is just an inch away from him she smiles at him and on spur of moment sprays water on him, the red rose transforms into a water gun and Shahrukh song starts playing in the background. Siddharth wakes up horrified. He wears his specks. "Aliaaa... she is traumatic even in my dreams." He speaks to himself. 

The same Shahrukh song as of the dream is audible in his room.

"Huhh?? Was the dream real?? Huhh??" he looks around and finds his mobile ringing.

"Oh it's my mobile... Alia???? Huhh?? Oh yes she took my number herself....She even changed my ringtone?" the mobile starts ringing again. He picks it up this time. "Hello"

"Wake up Mr. Killer. See you in 15 minutes" saying this she disconnects the call.

 Sid looks upwards and says "Why me god?? Why me?? I was planning to come to you instead you landed me with her?? Why?? Why always me??" he sighs his mobile beeps.

15 min means 15: P J - Alia

"Oh god... let me hurry up else maybe she will punish me more. God please help me." Sid hurries up and gets ready and leaves to pick up Alia.

He dials her number for the fourth time. "Alia I am waiting since 35 minutes for u"

"Mr. Killer I am here, now put the phone down" Sid looks at her she looked pretty in her orange crop top and blue shorts. She smelled like apricots.

"Now get going Mr. Killer, I will get late"

At PIZZA PALACE

"Alia you are late again" Mrs. Thomas huffs at her.

"Sorry Mrs. Thomas this freak got me late and you know I can't drive with this broken leg... ouch it hurts..." Alia dramatically holds her leg. Mrs. Thomas gives a bitter look to Sid.

"No... I didn't... "Sid tries to speak but is interrupted by Alia

"Now don't try to make excuses Mr. Killer"

"But Alia... I was..."

"Oh you two... Now stop fighting like a married couple" Mrs. Thomas says aloud.

"Alia, it's a big order, don't be late in delivering it, else it would be a great loss" Mrs. Thomas hands over the details of the order and they both leave.

While wearing helmet Alia says "sorry Sid, for blaming you back there, but you are my friend and that's what friends do they cover up for each other... now let's go else Mrs. Thomas will kill both of us."

Siddharth starts his bike all through the way the word friend keeps ringing in his ears. He kept smiling replaying the above conversation in his head.

Alia taps his helmet. "Stop Mr. Killer we have reached." Sid helps alia to take off the pizza boxes. He reads the name plate and freezes. It read

Mr. Rai – chief editor and publishing head

"Sid come I can't hold all boxes with this plastered leg.

"Al...Alia I can't come, just mange this one, I promise to serve you one more day... but... but just manage this yourself"

She notices sweat beads all over his forehead and senses his body shaking; she reaches for him "are you okay??"

A voice comes from behind she turns to look in that direction and replies pizza Palace when she turns back Siddharth wasn't there. Her eyes keep searching for him.

"What are you doing?? My pizzas will fall. Why do they hire people like you??" Mr. Rai says crabbily.

"Sorry sir"

"Keep the change" Mr. Rai replies and slams the door close.

As soon as the door closes and she gets sure no one is coming back she looks for Siddharth she calls him. She sees him next to the bike nervously rubbing his hands and pacing along bike.

"Sid are you alright?"

"Yes... I am fine... I am absolutely fine." He keeps looking towards the gate Alia senses something wrong but decides  not push it on him.

"Let's go"

"Sid take a left instead of right"

"Why?? It's the wrong way "

"No it's the right way because someone hasn't eaten up anything"

"You remembered?"

"I am not that bad Siddharth"

"Alia you are not bad at all... you are so nice and  so beautiful..." Sid stops abruptly.

Sid looks in the rear view mirror and sees Alia looking at him through the mirror. Their eyes meet and they both turn pink.

"Let's go"
