(Saif and Omar stop at a roadside dhaba for some chai and snacks)

Omar: It's been so long since we came here.

Saif: Ikr but Don't blame me, it's your fault too.

Omar: Yeah, it's all my fault. (Sarcastically)

Saif: I agree.

Omar: Pls Get married now.

Saif: Why is everyone in such a hurry for my marriage?

A guy comes, puts two cups of tea and a plate of samosas on the table, and leaves!

Omar: okay then die without getting married!

Saif: It's okay, I'll take that risk.

Omar changed the subject

Omar: There are so many bike models out now, let's modify yours.

Saif: No, I won't modify mine, it's perfect for me just the way it is.

Omar: I understand, but the bike will remain the same, right?

Saif: If it's fine, why modify it?

Omar: *sigh* Let's see...

(After eating and talking , They start riding, but Omar's bike starts making a strange noise)

Saif: See, you need to modify it, I don't!

Omar: I do need to, indeed!

Saif: And change this helmet too, your taste is so weird!

Omar: My sister said the same thing today, you guys have bad taste, not me!

Saif: Yeah, two people are wrong, you're right!

Omar : exactly

Saif : your sister must have a good taste , i mean better than you.

Omar : yk what , she showed me the same design you've and she said its so cool.

Saif : indeed it is.

They spend some time bike riding, racing, and just like that, after passing almost two hours, they head back to their respective homes.

At night, Saif enters the room, and Zayn is doing his assignments.

Seeing Saif, Zayn asks, "How are you feeling?"

Saif : huh?

Saif sitting on the bed, starts taking off his shoes. Zayn asks, "Is your heart feeling lighter?"

Saif looks at Zayn and nods, saying, "Thank you, Zayn."

Zayn responds, "Thanks won't work, I need a bike ride!"

Saif says, "Definitely after Shiza aapi's wedding."

Zayn says, "sure, I'll wait."

Saif gets up, puts his shoes aside, and says, "Sleep, there's a lot of work to be done tomorrow."

Zayn says, "Just one last assignment."

Saif lies down on the right side of the bed.

As morning arrives and light spreads everywhere, everyone is busy with their tasks. Zainab and Shiza are at the salon, while Zayn and Saif return from outside and see Rayyan sitting on the sofa, repeatedly throwing a football on the ground.

Saif tells Rayyan to get ready quickly, saying, "Go change, we need to leave soon."

Zayn reminds Saif, "I had pressed your pant coat and left it in the room."

Saif puts on the pant coat but realizes it's tight and complains to Zayn, "You didn't check the size? It's tight on me."

Saif gestures with his hand to show how tight it is.

Zayn teases him, saying, "I told you to come to the gym with me."

Saif replies, "Don't cover up your mistake now. What can I do?"

Zayn says, "You should have checked earlier."

Saif admits and replied sarcastically, " Yes, it's all my fault."

Saif says this and opens the wardrobe to search for clothes, then finds a blue kurta and takes it to change into in the washroom. When he returns, Zayn says while wearing shoes, "The girls will surely fall for you"

Saif gets annoyed and says, "Don't talk to me, I'll look so weird and different from everyone else, you're all wearing pant coat."

Zayn replies, "Ik, I made a mistake, but you're looking so good in kurta."

They get ready and arrive at the wedding hall. Saif and his chachu (Tahir) are standing at the entrance to welcome the guests.

Chachu teases Saif, "Find someone for yourself at the wedding today."

Saif replies, "Not so soon, chachu."

Chachu says, "I got married when I was 18."

Saif retorts, "And it was a love marriage, right?" (Saif starts teasing his chachu back).

Chachu says, "Then find your love too."

Just then, Zayn's voice is heard, "chachu, chachi is calling you."

Chachu says, "I'm coming" (and leaves).

Saif takes out his phone and starts scrolling when Alishay arrives in front of him. Saif looks here and there, and Alishay says, "She will be here soon"

Saif asks, "She? Who?"

Alishay replied, "Hala"

Saif asks, "When did I ask for her?"

Alishay replies, "You didn't, but I thought...because she is the only one left in our friend group."

Alishay smiles and walks away.

Saif thinks, "Has it become so obvious?"

After a while, Hala arrives and she was about to go inside. When Saif says, "Hii."

Hala stops and looks at him.

Saif asks, "What?"

Hala replies, "You're twinning with me."

Saif looks at his clothes, then at Hala, and says, "It's a coincidence. By the way, why didn't you save my number?"

Saif thinks, "Why did I ask her this? What will she think?"

Hala responds, "Who said I didn't save your number?"

Saif asks, "Did you?"

Hala replies, "Umm... I just forgot your name, that's why."

Saif says, "You could have saved my number as 'Rayyan's Brother'. (Saif emphasizes the words 'Rayyan's Brother')" and then says, "By the way, I am Saif."
