CHAPTER TWENTY.
CHENNAI.

Dariyah woke up at 4 AM to Sneha shaking her to make her get up.

"What?" Dariyah groaned out, "I was having such a nice dream. Why'd you have to wake me up?"

"Because we're getting late. Now, you better get up before I smack your ass." Sneha tied her hair up in band-less bun and walked towards the bathroom with her towel. "You better pack up the food you made for us all by the time I come out."

"Hmm." Dariyah hummed with her eyes still closed. She screamed when Sneha had splashed lukewarm water on her. "I said I needed you to pack up the food. Now get up, sleepy ass." Sneha gave her a strict stare to which Dariyah just nodded and rubbed her hands over her face to wipe the water off.

Dariyah stretched for a bit, she then walked towards the fridge to take the chicken sandwiches out which she made last night. She placed them in the microwave and went over to her closet to pick an outfit.

She settled for a cream sweater and leggings. After the sandwiches were heated she placed them in 4 containers and kept them in her bag. By the time Sneha returned, Dariyah last checked everything.

Her phone rang, she picked it up and smiled. "To what do I owe the pleasure of receiving a call from Mr. Leclerc so early in the day?"

"What can I say, Miss Hansa? You make me do things which I never thought I'd do." Charles stated from the other side. Dariyah's cheeks heated up.

"Haha, really funny. But tell me why'd you call?" Dariyah asked him as she opened up her locked cupboard and admired the things in it while talking to the Ferrari Prince.

"Ouch. Can I only call you when I need something, Brownies?" Charles pouted, resting a hand on his left chest in faux pain.

"You're such a drama queen, Leclerc." Dariyah rolled her eyes.

"For you? Always." Dariyah couldn't stop the smile from widening after hearing Charles' words.

"Yeah, yeah whatever. Are you guys ready yet?" Dariyah asked, playing with her necklace.

"Yeah, we are. Which is why I called you. Do you guys need a lift?" Charles asked, looking at his wallet with a smile.

"Wouldn't that make us late? I'm sure we can manage it on our own." Dariyah asked, "Plus Lav would kill us if we get there late."

"About that, Lando called Rishi and she said that Lavina has just woken up and asked her to pick her up. So it'd take her atleast 6 to get to the station." Charles informed Dariyah.

"Thank god. Sneha has still not come out of the shower and it's 4:30 now." Dariyah's shoulder relaxed. "Then I guess you guys could come and pick us up."

"Good. We'll be there in 20." Charles said.

"My house is a 35 minutes drive?" Dariyah asked confused.

"Max is driving." Charles needn't say anything else, Dariyah nodded her head in understanding. "Got it, I'll see you then."

"Bye, Brownies."

"Bye, Leclerc."

"It's not even 5 and yet you're already smiling like an idiot. Give me a break, it's early in the morning don't make me punch you in the face."Sneha warned before hitting Dariyah in the face with her wet towel. Dariyah just stuck out her tongue at her best friend.
