*Aara's p.o.v:
"Ziya!!!!" I barged into the nurse's room in search of my injured friend. "Oh my...what happened?" I rushed towards her. "Are you okay? Wait...don't answer that. Of course you are not."
"Why are you so clumsy? What were you thinking Ziya while walking? Do you have any idea how much of shock you put me through?" I kept on shooting questions at her.
"I am sor-."
"Look what the doctor said. You shouldn't walk for a while and you need complete bed rest. You know what that means? You can't come to school which means that you can't spend more time with me. How will you survive without me girl ?!"
"Are you kidding me Sid? It's you who can't survive without seeing me."
"I...that's not true!" Ziya didn't buy it and looked at me with her eagle eyes. "Fine. Maybe there's little truth in that." She smiled.
"Don't worry. I will back to school in no time In Sha Allah."
"You better remember what you said."
"Aye aye captain." She tried to mock salute me. "Ah .... It hurts."
"Ziya! You okay? Try not to move your right arm. It's in a cast."
"Yeah. I forgot. Sorry."
"Be careful. Don't stress a lot and you don't have to worry about school. I will take care of your homework."
....And this is what I had imagined on my way to the infirmary. Trust me when I say that I have more conversations in my head than in real life. So, I had prepared myself to see my bestie but all the words flew out of the window when I stepped into the room with Karen and Azaan and saw her for a good two minutes.
"Oh my brownie heaven! You have got a huge and an amazing potato Ziya!" I said.
"What?!" Ziya said.
"Aren't you supposed to be in bed wrapped in bandages like a Mummy?" Karen asked.
"What?!" Ziya asked again.
"Oh my, did she lose her brain when she fell from the stairs? She's only saying what what." Adrian asked Kai. Kai looked deep in thought.
"What are you thinking dude? Adrian asked him.
"Ziya belongs to our group which means that she's our friend, which means that she must be intelligent but now she has lost her brain which means that she's literally brainless which means that my reputation is at risk!" Kai said.
"Am I the only one who is feeling like losing my brain for real or is there someone else?" Azaan asked.
"I second that." Inayat said.
"What is the conclusion of your verbal diarrhea anyway?" I asked.
"We need to search her brain! Let's go Adri" Kai took off in pursuit of Ziya's supposed lost brain with a perplexed looking Adrian, who I guess didn't fully grasp Kai's nonsensical logic yet.
