Alyza p.o.v

Holy moly! This is not a hotel! This is a PALACE! WAOW! With wide eyes I take in the gold and glass interior of the hotel as I enter in and head towards the reception desk.
This place is breathing money man!

"Hi, ma'am how can I help you?" The lady at the reception asks me and I turn my eyes away from the glass interior to the young girl.

"Hello, my name is Alyza Jafarri and I'm here her for the international conference".Her smile fades away hearing my words. Weird... I wonder why?

She starts typing my name out on her desktop and turns back towards me with a key card.

"Ma'am you will be staying in room 305, it's on 25th floor, and also you will be sharing the room with another lady; Miss Asghar."

"I see. No worries and what time is the conference?" I ask her politely after taking the key card from her.

"the conference will be held at 10am, that is in 2 hours and the conference room is on 20th floor, room number 11C".

I take my card and belongings and say "alright, thank you so much, oh and has Miss Asghar arrived?"

"No ma'am, she hasn't yet. Enjoy your stay ma'am!" With that she look behind me, where a few other people are waiting.

I start to head towards my room. The uncomfortable and unknown feeling is just increasing as the distance between me and the room is decreasing. It's making me so restless but I try to ignore it again and and swipe my key card, entering the room.

Oh Waow...  Pretty!!

I walk in, setting my handbag and hand carry aside to have a look around the room, which is pretty huge with  two queen sized beds, a black and gray coloured bathroom, a lounge room and a balcony from which the view is just breathtaking.

This is view is great. I can literally see the whole Islamabad from here. It's relaxing here. Smiling I go inside and just then I hear a door knock.

I open the door and see.. Mahnoor... My best friend..? Just then a loud screechy sound comes "ALYZA!!!!"
She barges in and hugs the life out of me. While I'm still confused and shocked.

"What are you doing here? When did you come to Pakistan? How did you know I was staying here? Omg, this is shocking!!" I bombard her with questions in one single breath.

While she just smiles while sitting on the bed and says "first of all, I knew you were coming, secondly I'm here for conference just as you are and thirdly my dear, I came to Pakistan yesterday and lastly but not least, auntie told me last night when I called her since you weren't replying to any of my texts" .

"Oh.." that's all what comes out of mouth. For next good 5 minutes we are just staring at each other, while I am trying to comprehend everything and then all of a sudden, realization hits me and I hug the life out of her.

"Omg! You are here! Haha... This is unbelievable.... Yar you are really here.. Wait I called mum just about 2 hours ago, she didn't tell me about you?" Confused I ask her.

"Coz my Habibti I told her not to, wanted to surprise you" she replies smiling.

"I hate you!"
