After getting some good news from work, Zubaida and her teammates decide to go for coffee which lead to Zubaida receiving a bunch of flowers
Chapter 10:
Zubaida P.O.V:
The flower are from an old school friend, Faheem. He is in town and would like to meet up for lunch. He got my workplace address from my mother. Guess I got a lunch date for tomorrow, I haven't seen him since matric, and we all were very close. Let just say Muhammad, Faheem and me were the three musketeers of our school, inseparable till matric. I wonder if Muhammad knows he is in town.
So after work I decide to take a quick trip to the Overport city, I needed to buy some house supplies at checkers, I am in a bit of a rush so I didn't really see where I am walking and bump into Zainub. My worst nightmare, she is the world biggest gossiper! She know the entire memon community stories, how she finds out is a mystery to me because everyone doesn't like her. So here the conversation that occurs:
Me: salaam sorry for bumping into you like that, I am in a bit of a hurry so see you...
Zainub: Wait! It okay, rushing is not good, you will get hurt from all this running, why don't you join me for a cup of tea, and no excuses
So I am drag to sit down and force to ordering something to drink
Zainub: So how is my favourite person in the world, you mustn't work so hard, how do you expect to keep a husband
Me: *rolling my eyes* I am fine, and I am not overworking...
Zainub: Oh I am sorry about Yusuf, he a jerk, mustn't worry someone will teach him a lesson
Me: I am fine, it's over...
Zainub: did you hear, the handsomest bachelor of our time is dating someone, it a mystery, one minute his single and the next his introducing her to his family, everyone is talking about it, I hear she a real plain Jane, but also loaded
Me: oh...who are you talking about? *please don't be Zuhayr! Please*
Zainub: Don't you remember that hotshot financial advisor Zuhayr Sathar, Shame I wanted you to meet him, would've been a perfect Jodi (couple)
Me: oh him... Oh how nice *just smile and walk away* I really got to go, mom waiting, is nice seeing you again...
Zainub: Okay Wslmz pass on my salaam to the family and look after yourself
Whew! Getting away from her is a mission, I just don't see why she needs to butt into others business, luckily she didn't know it was me that Zuhayr introduced, and to say I am a plain Jane that a laugh, probably someone who jealous told her.
Author note
Wonder who the jealous person, and will Zainub find out it is Zubaida she is talking about. Anyways hope this brightens up your Monday
Lot of love
