Zia saw her phone blinking. It was jai. Her heart skipped a heartbeat. . How did he message me in his office times. She immidiately replied back ' Hi jai. No office??' 'Can we talk zia. Can i call you?' Zia was silenced. Talk ? She kept quiet for a long time holding the phone in her hands. 'Please.... ' Jai pinged again. Zia's fingers started trembling. Not replying could mean rude. At the same time, she cannot resist saying no to jai. There was only option left. She typed 'yes' and quickly pressed the send button as if its a big achievement. Zia clinged her mobile to her chest and shut her eyes tight.

Within seconds zia's mobile started ringing. First ring, second ring,third ring.... zia gripped her mobile tightly. Taking a deep breath she picked up the call.

'Hi zia' oooff.. there was a strong flow of emotions in zia's heart.. which was difficult to control. It caused a slight pain in her heart.. a pleasant pain.. 'Hi..' that was all zia managed to say.. 'kya kar rahi hai' 'Kuch nahi' 'Dinner done?' 'Yes' 'What happened? You are answering in one word baat nahi karni kya?' Zia remained silent 'How do i explain you your voice makes my soul tremble..' 'Nothing jai. But.... but you're call was unexpected. ' 'Why unexpected? Can't i call you as a friend?' Zia felt asif someone has slapped on her face and brought her to senses.. he clearly said 'as a friend' She smiled at herself. 'Yes Jai tell me. Kya hua?
