Umair's P.O.V

Things have been hectic lately. Nothing goes right even if i try as hard as i can. Meetings and agreements keep failing and dont go according to my plans..i better find a backup plan if i still want to survive in this harsh world

"Who you thinking about mate?" Adil interupts my thoughts as he makes himself comfortable in my office.
"Its not who but what, these papers and how am ganna survive throught it all" I replyy him and get up my seat to get myslef ready for the next meeting.

"Dudee i can see white hairs starting to grow all over you head..relax abit will you. Everything's ganna be just fine" Adil said with soo much jokery and assurance in his speech that I cant seem to figure if he's being serious right now or not.

I chose to let my curiosity wash away and gathered my stuffs and headed towards the door not before saying "Thanks dudee..I guess i really needed to hear that" and there I turned and headed to my next challenge in this harsh world head strong with any blow its ganna throw at me.

Adil's P.O.V
As I drive through the roads of dar (short form for Dar-es-salaam), a few things disturb the mental peace in my head. Umair has being wierd lately after the little incident that happend a few days ago.
Always in his thinking world and shuts himself off. I need to have a strong man-man talk soon with him.. I noted that down in my mind right before I entered through the doors of my favorite restaurant in the whole city.

I take a seat near a huge transparent window that has the most beautiful sea view ever. As I wait for the food I ordered and remembered about the meeting where we eneded up meeting yusra and her friends

***************************flashback*****************************

"heyy guys, didnt know you eat out too, how've you all been since our last meeting" he said in a teasing voice.

I see ilyas taking seating near another one of yusra's friends called shamsa, I think, and the remaining seat was beside yusra and the other was beside shamshad.

As I took a seat near one of yusra's friends, shamshad I think, umair had no choice but to take the seat near yusra.

I really need to know them with their names better than with just their faces only.

I know am used to yusra already since we've known each other almost all our whole lifetime but trust me..she is more than what you all see above the little innocent looks she puts infront of you all

"Where else u think we can get subways and not be late to work huh?" yusra replied back to adil as she tries to straighten up her seating pose.

"Is it a must for it to be subways? You could still have your own lunch at another restaurant too" Ilyas asked the girls.

"Yeah but no restaurant can beat subways at its yumminess u know" Shamsa said soo low as if she didnt she was replying to only the people seating beside her.

"Anyways..what made you people ruin our girl gang?" Hasina questioned
"And more importantly, who said you could seat at our table?" Farha added

"Okay okay girls if u could all hold your horses with those glares, your doubts will all be cleared by my man here, right Umair?" I said to the girls while throwing the job of explaining to Umair but ended up finding him busy with his phone.

"Seems like your friend has other important things that he doesnt even notice the people around him" Shamshad says as she takes a sips from her beverage.

"I did notice you all but didnt think its already time for me to interfere through ur joking moods" Umair answers shamshad still eyed locked to his phone.
