Chapter 02:: MISSION: Escape

HUSSAIN'S POV

****************

London 3:40AM

"Get up, you lazy butt!" Shehry bhai chucked a pillow at me but I decided to utilise by shoving it over my face.

"kya hai bhai? let me sleep. Plus we have nothing scheduled for today," I groaned and tightly shut my eyes.

Few minutes went by before he tried again, "uth basanti!" he yelled as he jumped on the bed, "Hussain, yeh last time hai. Get up!"

I groaned, annoyed by his act, and reached for my phone. With one eye open, I read the time, "Its freaking 3AM, bhai!" I yelled at him and covered my face with the pillow again.

"3:45," he corrected me.

"Honestly, 3:45 ho yah 3, its too early for anyone in their right mind."

Shehry bhai is not a morning person either; at least he is always the last one to wake up then why the hell is he up so early? or did he not sleep last night?

"Hussain, I am telling you that you are gonna miss out," he informed me as I felt some shuffles on my bed.

"No one misses out on anything except sleep at 3AM," I reminded him, sounding as much disinterested as I could.

"For the last time, 3:45!" He hissed. Why is he so pissed off? I asked myself.

Managing to peak through the little space between the bed covers and pillows, I saw bhai get off my bed and walk towards the door.

What am I missing out on??

Ok, Fine! I give up!

"Bhai wait!" I said while rubbing my eyes. The bright light felt too harsh right now.

"You sure you wanna listen?" he teased me.

"Yes bhai," I moaned.

He knows me just too well.

"Aa jao paltan!" he shouted in a whispering tone as Waqas and our manager cum friend, Adeel, walked straight in.

"What the heck is going on?!" I questioned, scratching the back of my neck.

"Look Hussain, you are tired of this public pleasing act," Shehry bhai mimicked the last words the way I had said them a couple of days ago, "so, we want to give you sometime for yourself."

"But then we thought that we all need a break from this world. I mean, in our journey from youtubers to film makers, we gave up on ourselves somewhere," Waqas looked straight into my eyes with such sincerity, "this fame took away a lot."

"No breaks, no time for ourselves," Adeel continued, "our trips were all about promotions, meet n greats, shootings, concerts and award shows."

Don't know why but this felt more like a speech to me.

"So, we want a grand vacation where no one will find us or even think about us being there," Shehry bhai's face lit up.

Waqas and Adeel pasted ear to ear smiles on their faces as bhai continued.

"If management finds out about this trip, they will, for sure, spread the news so we can get as much media coverage as possible-" he was going to go on for longer but I cut through his 'speech.'

"What's the point guys?" I asked looking at them blankly.

"The point is," Adeel stood up and pulled something out of his pocket, "we are leaving in an hour to a place where nights are magical, romance lingers in the air, weather is just fine for beaches, not much brown people and too many fine toned butts."
