Episode 19.

Third person's pov...

"Waise Einstein kitne matlabi log hain is dunya me, sirf lete hi hain dete nahi" she sighed eyeing Zahan who tried to ignore her and keep walking but couldn't because of the continuous sighing of Zoya.

(Einstein how selfish are the people of this world they only take but don't give)

"Waise ek gift ke peeche itna roote mene kabhi kisi ko nahi dekha. Sharam Karo thori" he said unfazed and kept walking ahead. She really didn't care about anything.

(I haven't seen someone cry for a gift this much. Have some shame)

"Aap jaisa kanjoos aadmi bhi mene kaheen nahi dekha. Magar ab return tu nahi karsakte aapko." she said showing him her hand.

(I also haven't seen someone as stingy as you. Well we can't possibly return you.)

"Tumse tu bus fazool baatein karwalo" he said rolling his eyes making her reciprocate his actions.

(You can only speak rubbish)

They both walked in the mall looking for Shayla who said she'll meet then bear the entrance. They were there to shop for Zahid's wedding and now Shayla was no where to be seen. Zahan was enjoying the fee seconds of her silence when she suddenly squealed and gasped.

"A nikon d3500. I've been wanting that" she exclaimed running near the window of a tech shop. A camera was put on display near the glass window and she was basically drilling over it.

She went inside and asked for the price but it was out of budget for now. The camera was expensive and she was saving for it but this wedding out of the blue brought other expenses along with it breaking her pocket.

"I'll get it next time" she sighed dejectedly coming out of the shop. She had already bought the things she needed and at the moment couldn't afford to buy this very expensive camera. She's need her baba to help her buy.

"Do you want it?" He asked

"Um.. yeah" she said pursing her lips together.

"Come I'll get it for you" he said walking towards the shop.

"No..... Einstein stop" she whisper yelled clutching his shirt pulling him back.

"What? Just now you were crying about how I didn't gift you anything now you're stopping me from buying you something?" He asked confused. His eyebrows creased.

"Haan tu mere kehna ka matlab yeh thori hai ke jazbaati hoke mujhe lakhon ka camera leden. Mazaq karrahi thi. Ajeeb serious hogaye aap tu" she shook her head stopping him.

(Yeah so that doesn't mean you get emotional and buy me such an expensive camera. I was just joking you always get serious.)

"What?"

"I don't want anything. I was just playing." She said pulling him away from the shop.

"First you cry over the fact you didn't get you anything then you say you don't want anything. What is wrong with you?"

"Yaar. Look all I got you was a keychain. Right? So comparatively this camera is way too expensive. That's not how it works"

"Is that the only reason?" he asked and she nodded 

Before any of them could say anything Shayla interrupted them and took zoya away with her to a shop she saw on the way here. They left the mall shortly after. The whole ride consisted to the girl singing along to their favourite songs and Zahan complaining about how bad they sounded.
