"My mind is a warrior.

Alya's P.O.V.

Zayn's driver finally pulled the car out of the driveway of The Funky Buddha club and Liam continued to shift in his seat, appearing uneasy as he tried to make some room for himself. I was sitting on the window side, with Liam on my right, followed by Zayn whose back was turned towards us; he was then too engrossed in having a conversation with Pez, who was sitting by the right window.

Liam moved again, causing his right elbow to bump into Zayn's back. Looking over his shoulder, he furrowed his brows at Liam and asked, "What's wrong, mate?"

"Just trying to get comfortable in here," Liam explained, smiling nervously at Zayn. With that, he shifted a little towards me, causing his left knee to bump into my right thigh a little harder and he instantly met my eyes, passing me an apologetic look.

"I can go back?" I suggested, passing a small smile to Liam and his expressions immediately dropped.

"No. No. It's fine." His reply was instant and he tried his best to fit in the little space; his body squished between mine and Zayn at that point in time.

"Why don't you scoot over a bit?" Pez instructed Zayn and shifted to her right before continuing, "The way you are sitting, you have probably occupied more than half of the seat." She said sarcastically.

"I'm sorry. I didn't realize." Zayn apologized, passing a small smile to us and then, he sat up straight, providing a lot of room for Liam to sit comfortably then.

After Zayn got busy chatting with Pez once again, I shifted a bit to my left, making sure that Liam had enough space to sit. In the next second, he placed his left hand on my right thigh, catching my attention and instantaneously, I met his eyes.

"Are you still uncomfortable?" I inquired in a whispering voice and he shook his head twice, passing me a small smile.

As he opened his mouth to say something, the phone in my lap started ringing and he rolled his eyes at me. "Does your phone ever stop ringing?" He huffed and I stuck out my tongue at him, childishly. Shaking his head amusingly, he passed me a smile in return.

A big smile enveloped my face when I saw 'Adi' flashing on the screen and I quickly accepted the call. A few minutes into the call, Liam got busy with Zayn and Pez while I continued talking to Adi over the phone. He described how he celebrated my birthday and he was sounding too excited, all through the while he talked. He told me that he cut a cake, which was in the shape of the alphabet 'A', arranged by Doctor Noor and they clicked the pictures as well, which he would show to me only when I go back to India. He seemed to be doing a lot better. Moreover, Doctor Noor informed me that he was getting healthier too.
