Monday evening:
Aliya was in her room designing the jewellery for her final piece. She gathered all the little sketches she had. Her hand fell on a piece of paper which she doesn’t recall drawing. It was a gorgeous pendant design , at the bottom the work was initialled Z.G.
Aliya: Zain.
Her phone buzzed. She unlocked the screen to receive a text from Zain. She smiled down at the phone. She opened the text and read it:
Hi Aliya, I hope I’m not disturbing you but I think you have something if mine. I think the other day at the office a paper may have slipped into your pile. It’s a design I was making for a client. If it’s okay with you could I meet you tomorrow and get it from you?
Aliya replied: Hi Zain , you weren’t disturbing and yes I do have the paper , I just found it. Tomorrow I start university late so I can meet you around 11 am?
Zain: Thanks Aliya, I’ll meet you outside your house?
Aliya: Sounds awesome.
Zain: See you tomorrow.
Aliya: See you.
Aliya locked her phone and stared at the design.
Swara: Ali Di! Dinner is ready!
Aliya heard Swara shouting from downstairs.
